But even if she wanted to regret it now, it was too late, because she had signed the contract with Mr. Wang, and Mr. Wang had already held the evidence. Once the arrow was shot, there was no turning back, so she could only move forward.

An Ling opened the folder on the computer and entered the password. Inside was the latest issue of the magazine she had planned and several articles from public accounts. On the surface, there was nothing wrong with the content, but in fact, she had hidden some content. The content was supposed to be published next month. Once published, under the instigation of some people with ulterior motives, "Meishang" would inevitably fall into the vortex of public attack.

By then, if someone revealed that Li Jiawei was the daughter of Li Ronghua, chairman of the Li Group, netizens would certainly implicate the Li Group. In the end, for the sake of the reputation of the Li Group and the stock market, Li Jiawei had no choice but to withdraw from "Meishang".

Ms. Wang will take the opportunity to acquire "Meishang" at the lowest price. At that time, she will complete her wealth accumulation, take "Meishang" and Universal Pictures' shares abroad, and never come back.

But now An Ling is uncertain. She is shaken. Universal Pictures is now in trouble. Does Mr. Wang still have the ability to acquire "Meishang"? Even if the acquisition price of "Meishang" is reduced to the lowest, it will still cost more than 1 billion.

She closed the folder irritably, hid the contents inside, and decided to wait. If she were Mr. Wang, she would not be in a hurry to acquire "Meishang" at this time.

An Ling stood up, walked to the window, opened the blinds, looked at the busy staff downstairs, and especially saw Wu Ziqi. She once again found an excuse for her betrayal of "Meishang": it was not that she was unjust, but that "Meishang" was unkind and wanted to abandon her after her death. She had no choice but to join Universal Pictures.

Wu Ziqi, who was reading a document, felt the gaze cast on her and subconsciously looked up, only to see An Ling standing by the window upstairs looking at her.

Wu Ziqi smiled and nodded to An Ling. In fact, not only was An Ling looking for the right time to strike, but Wu Ziqi was also waiting for her move, because only if An Ling made the first move could she take the opportunity to defeat An Ling in one fell swoop and become the editor-in-chief of "Meishang".

Although An Ling is someone Wu Ziqi admires, Wu Ziqi is also ambitious and has her own career pursuits. She didn't dare to think about it before because she had no support behind her, but now she has Li Jiawei behind her, so she naturally has to raise her goals. As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and she is a "good soldier" who wants to be a "general."

After work, Li Jiawei looked at the time and found that it was already time to get off work in the afternoon. The day after tomorrow is the National Day holiday. She and Uncle Liang have already made an appointment to go to Beijing a day in advance. Their flight is at nine o'clock tonight.

This time when she returns to Beijing, she and Xiao Yi will hold an engagement ceremony. Her mother Jing Qiu had already arrived in Beijing a week ago and started to prepare for the engagement.

Originally, Li Jiawei also wanted to return to Beijing, but because of her work and Xiao Yi's online hype, she postponed her plan to go back. Fortunately, she and Xiao Yi did not plan to be too extravagant for their engagement, and the engagement ceremony was just a family gathering to witness it.

Li Jiawei originally hoped that her adoptive parents Cheng Ping and Li Jianguo, as well as her eldest brother Li Chengwei's family, would be present. However, her mother Cheng Ping and father Li Jianguo were unwilling to attend.

Mother Cheng Ping said, "Jiawei, I understand your feelings, but there is a huge gap between our family and your biological parents, and we can't talk to each other. It will be awkward for both sides. After you and Xiao Yi are engaged, come home and your parents will celebrate for you."

Li Jiawei understands her mother's concerns. In the past two years, her mother has been feeling bad. Since she and Li Xuanbao learned about their respective life stories, Li Xuanbao has only visited them once in Beijing. At first, she occasionally called to say hello, but now she doesn't even call anymore.

Last time, Cheng Ping went to Shenzhen to see Li Xuanbao because of her health problems, but they only met once in the hospital. Li Xuanbao asked her secretary to accompany Cheng Ping for two days, but Cheng Ping went to Shenzhen because he was worried about her health, so he was not in the mood to hang out.

But Cheng Ping also understood Li Xuanbao's intention. He just didn't want to see her, but it was not good to say it openly, so he could only arrange for her to stay away from him.

Cheng Ping stayed in Shenzhen for two days and then took the train back to Beijing. After arriving home, she cried with Li Jianguo and never mentioned Li Xuanbao again.

Later, Li Jiawei heard about this from her elder brother Li Chengwei. Li Chengwei was not happy with Li Xuanbao's behavior, but he could only sigh and said to Li Jiawei: "She has never lived in our family and has no feelings for my parents. I can understand that. But I can't stand my mother taking a train to Shenzhen to see her at such an old age, but she only saw her once. My mother made two sets of small clothes for Xuanbao's son, but she couldn't give them away. Jiawei, do you know how sad I felt when I heard my parents crying together!"

When Li Jiawei heard Li Chengwei say this, she could imagine her mother's mood at the time. She felt distressed and angry, and said, "Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Li Chengwei sighed and said, "Li Xuanbao is not in good health now, and you can't do anything to her. Telling you will only make you feel uncomfortable."

Li Jiawei couldn't figure out which one was Li Xuanbao. Back then, they had beaten Zhang Yi together. At that time, she really liked Li Xuanbao because she was perfect: beautiful, successful in her career, happy in her family, and cheerful and generous. But why did she change in just a short time? Or was she always like this?

After what happened with Li Xuanbao, Li Jiawei was no longer so obsessed with the idea of ​​having her adoptive parents and her eldest brother Li Chengwei's family attend her engagement ceremony. After all, the family backgrounds of the two families were indeed very different, and forcing them to get together would only make both of them uncomfortable.

Therefore, Li Jiawei and Xiao Yi’s engagement ceremony will actually be held twice in Beijing: once at their biological parents’ home and once at their adoptive parents’ home.

At the engagement ceremony held at her biological parents' side, Li Jiawei counted the number of people. Including her and Xiao Yi, there were only twelve people in total, so the process was not complicated.

Liang Yusen came to "Meishang" to pick up Li Jiawei. Li Jiawei carried the suitcase that had been prepared long ago and got into Liang Yusen's car and headed to the airport.

Liang Yusen asked: "When will Xiao Yi arrive in Beijing?"

Li Jiawei smiled and said, "He arrived half an hour earlier than us and will be waiting for us at the airport."

When the plane landed at Beijing Airport, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. Li Jiawei followed Liang Yusen out of the airport VIP channel, and two cars were waiting outside. After Li Jiawei got in the car, she found Xiao Yi already sitting in the car, and she immediately threw herself into his arms.

Liang Yusen was pleased to see that the two had a deep relationship, so he got into another car without disturbing them.

Their residence in Beijing is a three-story courtyard house. This is Li Jiawei's first time here. The place is antique and under the illumination of the atmosphere lights, she feels like she has returned to Li Garden. Li Jiawei stood in front of the second entrance and was stunned for a moment. She remembered that she had not been back to Li Garden for a long time and she missed her grandma.
