"As founders, they can't be unaware of what it means to ruin the magazine's reputation. Unless... someone has promised them a greater benefit."

Li Jiawei thought carefully about Xiao Yi's words. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense. She nodded decisively and said, "You're right! I'll make the call now."

Xiao Yi gently held her hand and comforted her: "Don't be too anxious. Find out the situation first. Maybe it's just a misunderstanding. Everything will be fine after explaining it clearly."

Li Jiawei pursed her lips slightly, and her fingertips quickly slid across the phone's address book, finally stopping at a name. Hu Weiyang, as the second largest shareholder of "Meishang", not only has a deep friendship with his mother Jing Qiu, but also supports her management work on weekdays. I believe she can get the truth from him.

At this moment, Hu Weiyang and his wife were sitting opposite each other in front of the chessboard, with black and white chess pieces intertwined on the sandalwood chessboard.

As his cell phone vibrated on the low table, he casually threw the black piece he was holding into the chess box, his eyes showing some understanding: "See, I told you this call would come sooner or later."

The wife glanced at the caller ID, her eyebrows curved into crescents: "You win, I'm willing to admit defeat this time."

Hu Weiyang chuckled and shook his head, his tone full of appreciation from an elder: "You still underestimate Jing Qiu's daughter. Even though this girl has never accepted any good deals, she is very smart and will never sit still and wait for death when something happens."

After Hu Weiyang finished talking to his wife, he answered the phone with a smile: "Mr. Li, you called me personally. Is there something important you want to tell me?"

Li Jiawei held the phone in her hand and listened to what Hu Weiyang said. She quickly said modestly, "Uncle Hu, you are embarrassing me by saying that. You and my mother have been good friends for many years. I will always be a junior in front of you. You can just call me Jiawei."

Hu Weiyang agreed cheerfully, his tone more intimate: "Okay! Jiawei, no one comes to visit you for no reason. You called so suddenly, did something happen to you?"

Li Jiawei tapped the tabletop lightly with her fingertips, and said in a sincere and direct tone: "Uncle Hu, I have something I want to ask you.

Is there anything missing in the recent work of "Meishang"? If you and the directors have any suggestions, please feel free to speak up. As long as the suggestions are reasonable, I will make adjustments as soon as possible. "

Hu Weiyang's deep laughter came from the receiver, with the approval of an elder: "Since you took over "Meishang", you have made the magazine stand shoulder to shoulder with the Big Four magazines in just a few years. We old guys can only applaud and praise you, and we have no suggestions!"

Li Jiawei raised a faint smile at the corner of her lips: "Since Uncle Hu and all the shareholders think that "Meishang" is developing well, then I want to know..." She deliberately dragged out the last syllable, turning the unfinished words into a tentative blank.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Hu Weiyang's meaningful chuckle.

As an old fox who has experienced many ups and downs in the business world, he naturally heard the hidden meaning: "Jiawei, Editor-in-Chief Wu is a conventional person. Although he lacks a little courage, he is more stable.

We old guys wouldn't embarrass someone who does her job. If we really wanted to touch her, how could we allow her to continue to sit in the position of editor-in-chief?"

Li Jiawei's fingers tightened slightly around the phone, and her voice was steady and respectful: "I know this. As the founders of Meishang, you have watched the magazine grow from obscurity to the top of the industry. If there is anyone who is most looking forward to it going to the next level, it must be you."

Hu Weiyang chuckled twice, with a bit of helplessness and emotion in his tone: "Jiawei, you hit the nail on the head. Although we old guys don't usually interfere in the daily affairs of "Meishang", who doesn't hope that it can get better and better?"

After a brief silence on the other end of the phone, his voice became cautious: "But this matter is not a big deal.

This time, your mother called us one by one and said that things had been going too smoothly for you recently and that you were not stable enough. She asked us to create some trouble for "Meishang" and hoped that you could be more calm.

Although we are confused, we have been friends with your mother for decades and it is hard for us to refuse."

He sighed earnestly, “If there is any misunderstanding between you and your mother, it must be resolved as soon as possible.

Don’t let these family affairs affect the development of “Meishang”. After all, this magazine is the result of the hard work of so many people.”

Li Jiawei's fingertips holding the phone trembled slightly. She never imagined that the mastermind behind this incident was her mother Jing Qiu.

I forced myself to exchange a few more words with Hu Weiyang, but the moment I hung up the phone, all my emotions burst out.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Xiao Yi immediately stood up, poured a cup of warm black tea and handed it to her, and asked softly, "What did Mr. Hu say?"

Li Jiawei took the teacup, tilted her head back and drank the warm tea in one gulp, the bitterness spreading on the tip of her tongue.

She forced a smile that was uglier than crying and looked at Xiao Yi. She said in a somewhat stiff voice, "You guessed right. There is indeed someone behind the shareholders... Guess who that person is?"

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, his eyes full of worry: "The person who can make you react like this must be someone close to you!"

Li Jiawei lowered her eyes and stared at the tea leaves swirling at the bottom of the cup, feeling as if there was a piece of burning charcoal stuck in her throat.

After a long while, she managed to utter three words: "It's Mom." After saying this, she sighed heavily: "I really can't understand why she did this?"

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, remembering that Li Jiawei had previously handed the evidence against Li Xuanbao to her uncle, and tentatively analyzed: "Could it be because of Xuanbao and Big Brother? You didn't discuss it with your family in advance, and Mom must be angry!"

Li Jiawei sat on the sofa, the wind outside the window blew across the glass, her voice was wrapped in suppressed helplessness: "How can I negotiate? You don't know my parents' temper. If I tell them in advance, they will definitely force me to destroy the evidence.

But Li Xuanbao's actions had already been noticed by others, and the truth could not be hidden at all!"

"Once my parents come out to protect us, the Li family will become the target of public criticism. If our opponents find evidence against us, the entire Li family will be in a passive position!"

Li Jiawei's sigh seemed to be filled with endless fatigue. She sank exhaustedly into the sofa, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the teacup in her hand, letting the porcelain cup spin in circles in her palm, making slight sounds.

Xiao Yi silently moved closer, and his slender fingers gently covered her slightly cold hand, and the warmth of his palm passed through her skin: "Mom's attitude towards you is now very obvious.

Although she no longer has the shares of Meishang, as the founder, who below can not be afraid of her influence? "He looked at her frowning eyebrows and asked softly, "What are you going to do next?"
