Chapter 1797: What? You Want to Be Empress Zhangsun?

Gu Yihan was still in the police station. Wen Corporation made use of some of their connections but was still unable to extract her out immediately. The media and the internet rapidly reported on her drug abuse issue, causing her name and reputation to be already totally ruined.

Wen Corporation was not in a good state either. After Gu Yihan was caught for drug abuse, Wen Corporation’s security guards and journalists clashed, causing another scandal that was widely reported upon. Wen Corporation had been totally thrown under the bus, and many of the negative news of the past were dug out by the media as well, including Wen Haowen’s scandals, circling around Yang Ziyu and Ning Shuqian, as well as his fights with Ning Shuqian.

Wen Corporation’s share prices continuously dropped, and today, it had already lost more than seventy percent of its value, creating a new low in Wen Corporation’s history. As for the workers in the corporation, because Old Mr. Wen was there to stabilize the situation, they felt fine but still anxious.

However, the board of directors and shareholders were making a big commotion, and some of the smaller shareholders even withdrew their investments.

What made things worse was that Wen Corporation was being compared to the Li Corporation.

Li Corporation made use of Wen Corporation’s crisis to rapidly take over the market share that used to belong to the Wen Corporation, including clothing, make-up, and jewelry.

They were domineering and fierce.

At that point, Li Corporation’s share prices had already risen by over eighty percent, their previous conservative stance finally made use of this opportunity to gain footing in the mainland.

Wen Xinya just looked at her computer screen at the endless amount of news about Gu Yihan and the Wen Corporation feeling a little lost.

Si Yiyan walked in front of her, lowered his head and looked at her. “Do you feel bad about it?”

Ever since this happened to the Wen Corporation, she barely had a smile on her face.

Wen Xinya softly agreed. “Although I already knew long ago that the Wen Corporation would not be able to escape such a crisis and had already mentally prepared myself for it, but to watch what Grandpa worked so hard to build to become someone else’s stepping stone. I feel really terrible.”

As for her, she had also put a lot of effort into the Wen Corporation. For them to get beaten down so badly by others, why would she not feel terrible?

Si Yiyan looked her straight and deep into the eyes. “Wen Corporation has too many problems amongst the employees, and following this, you will receive even more intense attacks. You must be mentally prepared.” He grabbed her hand lightly and pulled her into his embrace. “Xinya, don’t give up, just press on for a while more. I will give you an entirely new Wen Corporation soon.”

Wen Corporation was one of the most important tools to deal with the Korean-Chinese Alliance. They were already at this step today and naturally should not give up.

Actually, over the years that the Wen Corporation was under Wen Haowen’s management, the department’s problems just expanded like a balloon. Everything seemed calm on the surface, but internally, it was in a mess. They were not ready to compete with other corporations.

All it would take was a trigger before the balloon would explode.

And Li Corporation was the trigger.

However, even without Li, there were already Zhang and Sun[1]. This outcome would happen eventually.

Wen Xinya lightly nodded. “I know!” After she said it, she felt that her reply was a little too cold and dry and continued, “Wen Family has already achieved so much today. Other than the plans that the Korean-Chinese Alliance has against us, we are considered strong. Wen Corporation would not have been able to avoid this, anyway. I know that you never thought of sacrificing Wen Corporation to deal with the Korean-Chinese Alliance!”

He had been trying to accommodate her pace and requirements of protecting Wen Corporation while using it to deal with the Korea-Chinese Alliance. Otherwise, he would not have put in so much effort. She was just worried that he had already leveled the forces of the Korea-Chinese Alliance.

Si Yiyan turned his gaze towards her face, his deep voice containing a hint of amusement. “Through Boya Pavilion, I’m already in control of all of the Korea-Chinese Alliance’s influence, and for this match, I have already set my chess pieces right. Now, I’m only waiting for Li Corporation, Xiao Corporation, and Boya Pavilion to join this match, then we will eradicate the Korea-Chinese Alliance completely.”

In his simple words, he revealed his plan and tactics to come out victorious. This caused Wen Xinya to feel a sense of unexplained shock, as she felt that it was a little frightening.

Si Yiyan looked calm and cold, but in him was a natural instinct for killing and destroying.

She thought back to the methods that he used to deal with the Korean-Chinese Alliance in Italy, and then compared it to his calculations and preparations today that were just waiting for the Korean-Chinese Alliance to fall into the trap.

He made no moves yet, but he was cruel and ruthless.

However, this made Wen Xinya feel a little uneasy, as she deeply admired him, especially his manly charisma. “Si Yiyan, you should not be tied down by me. You should play with the world that belongs to you. I... will always stand behind you, as long as you remember to look back.”

On Wen Xinya’s journey to this point, she had already had the thought to work side by side with him. However, she understood that what this man had was the charisma to let her chase after and desire him.

She only wanted to be the woman supporting him from the back.

To look at him engage in multiple battles and emerge victorious.

Si Yiyan laughed. “What? You want to be Empress Zhangsun?”

Wen Xinya pursed her lips. “There’s nothing bad about being Empress Zhangsun.”

Si Yiyan held her. “But I don’t want to be Tang Taizong. I would rather be your lover and dominate the world as Xiang Yu.”

After Empress Zhangsun rose to her position centuries ago, she earned Tang Taizong’s brilliance. However, as a woman, who would understand her when she was lonely and grieving in the palace?

What he wanted was not fulfillment, sacrifice or any kind of sacrificial love.

Instead, he wanted to move forward with her till old age, hand in hand.

Wen Xinya’s face burned up. His deep voice was refreshing, like a bamboo leaf singing in the wind, touching her heart. It was not his first time saying such stuff.

Consort Yu and Xiang Yu represented mutual love, where they shared riches and lived and died with each other.

“I’m not as beautiful as Consort Yu, or as talented, or dance as well...” She softly bemoaned.

However, she had yet to finish saying “brilliant” when she was suddenly raised by her waist and fell straight into his embrace. He held her tightly by the waist and kissed her.

The lighting in the house was dazzling, but the lights were hazy. In Wen Xinya’s eyes, it was just the intense contours of his face and the hot and passionate atmosphere of his presence.

“Woo—”

This kiss was intensely passionate as if she was completely his. Wen Xinya was trapped in his embrace. Unknowingly, his hand on her waist became tightly intertwined with her fingers.
