The public opinion was in an uproar, but Xia Wanyuan remained unmoved. Even Qing University did not seem to notice this matter.

In this way, Nancheng University could not sit still anymore. “What’s going on at Qing University? Are they planning to ignore Xia Wanyuan?”

The director frowned. “Not necessarily. Let’s try pushing her forward again. Xia Wanyuan is very difficult to deal with. She might have some dirty tricks up her sleeve.”

Soon, there was a frenzy in the history world.

A few history professors from Nancheng University had publicly written a few posts online attacking “fake professors”.

In the academic team, there were people with noble character and morals who paid attention to the ethics of scholars, and there were also many people who lived in the industry messily.

Xia Wanyuan had achieved so much at such a young age. Many people did not say it, but their hearts were filled with jealousy.

With the professors from Nancheng University in front, many small fries followed.

Anyway, scholars were good at the Spring and Autumn brush technique.

No one knew who this “fake professor” was, but every detail made one clearly think that it was Xia Wanyuan.

[ It’s as if I saw the previous scene again. I vaguely remember that a long time ago, a group of people secretly scolded Xia Wanyuan like this. Later on, that group of people was completely cold. ]

[Hahaha, the person in front, why do I like what you say so much? I really hate these so-called scholars. If you want to scold them, scold them openly. It’s so dark that it only makes people hate them.]

[ Xia Wanyuan really has many brainless fans. Did the professor scold your master? Why are you rushing to take the blame? ]

Xia Wanyuan was popular. All sorts of marketing accounts saw the popularity and crawled in. Instantly, there were all sorts of arguments on the Internet.

Xia Wanyuan filmed quietly.

Jun Shiling and Xuan Sheng were both very busy. Xia Wanyuan tried her best to arrange for their scenes to be filmed in the central time before slowly filming the others’ scenes.

Fortunately, the two of them had high intelligence. In just a day or two, they could be as proficient as old actors, greatly increasing their efficiency.

In less than a week, most of the scenes involving the two of them had been filmed.

Yan Ci, who had been acting with these two the entire time, was basically doubting his life.

He now believed in a saying that talent was far more important than hard work.

Jun Shiling and Xuan Sheng were still a little unfamiliar on the first day. In the end, as the Best Actor, he almost could not withstand their aura.

Since the filming here was over, Xuan Sheng greeted Xia Wanyuan and left the production team.

Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling, who was standing at the side. “Alright, he’s already gone. Who are you showing your cold face to? Are you showing it to me?”

Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan bitterly. “You smiled at him.”

Xia Wanyuan pulled Jun Shiling’s hand. “I’ll smile at you too. Come, do you want to see me smile?”

The staff at the side were silently pretending to be dead, but everyone was very shocked.

Over the past few days, everyone had only seen Jun Shiling’s cold face. They did not expect Jun Shiling to be so easy to coax. Xia Wanyuan teased him slightly, and Jun Shiling broke.

Xia Wanyuan pulled Jun Shiling into the office building. Just as she was about to continue coaxing Jun Shiling, her phone rang.

It was a message from Shen Qian.

“There are indeed tombs on Longqi Mountain.”

Seeing this news, Xia Wanyuan’s pupils constricted. She replied to Shen Qian, “Can you go in?”

“I’ll try my best. We’re digging.”

At that moment, Jun Shiling leaned over to take a look. “Shen Qian went over?”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan’s eyes were filled with worry. “I have a feeling that Long Qi Mountain is very likely related to my previous life.”

What worried Xia Wanyuan was that logically speaking, it was impossible for tombs to appear in the south.

Then what exactly happened back then to cause such a huge reversal?

Jun Shiling patted Xia Wanyuan’s shoulder. “Don’t worry too much. Wait for news from Shen Qian.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded.

Jun Shiling thought of Lin Jing’s report about Nancheng University. “Do you need my help?”

The major families stood behind the media in the south, and the major families naturally stood behind the media in the north.

The power of public opinion could also be suppressed with the power of public opinion.

Xia Wanyuan shook her head. “Let’s wait a little longer. We’ll talk when they’re anxious.”

Since she wanted to pull it out, she had to uproot it.

Although the higher-ups of Qing University and Xia Wanyuan could still sit still, the other professors of Qing University began to panic.

There were even professors who secretly wrote anonymous letters asking the principal to suspend Xia Wanyuan.

At the school’s regular meeting the next day, Principal Yang threw the anonymous letter on the meeting table.

“Stop fighting among yourselves! If you don’t believe Xia Wanyuan, then you don’t believe me either? Today, I’ll put my career on the table for you, and I’ll support Xia Wanyuan. Which one of you still writes anonymous letters? Report me too!”

Xia Wanyuan had been promoted by Principal Yang. He knew Xia Wanyuan’s ability better than anyone.

As for the small actions of Nancheng University, he had seen many of them after being the principal for so many years.

Initially, the professors were still a little restless. Now that they saw Principal Yang protecting Xia Wanyuan so firmly, everyone calmed down and stopped talking about this.

The school meeting was not secretly held, so very quickly, the news of Principal Yang angrily protecting Xia Wanyuan spread.

Instantly, there were all sorts of things. There were even some people who took advantage of the situation and began to spread rumors that the Principal of Qing University and Xia Wanyuan had an inexplicable relationship.

These people hid behind the Internet and thought that they could just hit the keyboard and not have to take responsibility. Who would have thought that a few minutes after the dirty words were posted, the Internet police would already find them?

At the same time, the cyber police in all parts of the country received all sorts of reports.

Lin Jing reported the news to Jun Shiling, who nodded. “Mm, continue to watch.”

Xia Wanyuan had asked him to ignore those people from Nancheng University, but she had not said that she did not want him to care about these people who had spread rumors about Xia Wanyuan behind her back.

Jun Shiling sent the Jun Corporation’s legal team across the country to sue all the keyboard warriors hiding behind the keyboard and emitting a stench.

[Tsk tsk… What do you mean by group favor? I’ve finally seen it today…]

[ The principal of Qing University used his reputation to protect Xia Wanyuan. The Jun Corporation’s legal team collectively moved to protect Xia Wanyuan… Amazing. ]

[I don’t know which side to stand on anymore. I feel that both sides are quite convincing. Sigh, I’d better watch the show quietly.]

Jiangnan.

The Wei family, which was about to be taken in, returned to its original position because of Lin Qingyuan’s arrival.

Wei Jin was dressed in a cheongsam and sitting at her desk. She had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her nose and was seriously checking the Wei family’s accounts.

Mu Feng’s silver hair was scattered on the sofa. He supported his head with his hand and quietly looked at Wei Jin, who was not far away, with gentleness in his eyes.

Wei Jin occasionally looked up and met Mu Feng’s gaze. There was a smile in her eyes. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Mu Feng raised an eyebrow. “Can’t I look at my wife?”

Wei Jin’s ears turned red. She lowered her head and continued reading the account book.

After a while, Wei Jin sighed slightly. “It’s a little difficult. Lin Qingyuan is back. The Wei family’s originally broken funding chain has returned to normal.”

Furthermore, the Lin family was originally the boss of the south. With Lin Qingyuan’s help, the crisis of the Wei family in Jiangnan was quickly resolved.

Mu Feng coughed lightly and attracted Wei Jin’s attention.

]”What’s wrong?” Wei Jin took off her glasses. “You have a way?”

Mu Feng picked up a strand of hair with his index finger. “Yes, but I have to leave for a few days. Can you stay here alone?”

Wei Jin nodded. “Of course. Don’t forget that I’m protected by the people my cousin sent over.”

Mu Feng stood up, walked to Wei Jin, and kissed her. “Then wait for me here. Hubby will be back soon.”

“Where are you going?” Wei Jin stood up to ask Mu Feng.

Mu Feng pressed Wei Jin’s shoulder. “Don’t be anxious. Give me a week and I’ll let you successfully take in the Wei family.”

With that, Mu Feng left the room.

Looking at Mu Feng’s departing figure, confusion appeared in Wei Jin’s eyes.

She called Xia Wanyuan and reported the Wei family’s current work situation.

“Cousin, I’m sorry that I didn’t meet your expectations.”

“You’ve already done very well.” Xia Wanyuan’s voice was gentle. “Haste makes waste. No matter what, the Wei family of Jiangnan has a hundred years of foundation. It’s impossible to take them down so easily.”

Wei Jin hesitantly told Xia Wanyuan about Mu Feng. She could not think of any way for Mu Feng to make the entire Wei family hers in a week.

Hearing Wei Jin’s words, Xia Wanyuan’s eyes flickered. She thought for a moment and smiled. “Then wait patiently. Since Mu Feng said so, he must be confident.”

Wei Jin was confused, but she believed Xia Wanyuan unconditionally, so she did not ask further.

After hanging up, Xia Wanyuan picked up the brush beside her again and drew on the canvas in front of her.

In the current manor, there were already ten studios in Xia Wanyuan’s studio.

Xia Wanyuan usually liked to draw and write when she had nothing to do. After years of accumulation, these ten studios were already not enough.

Xia Wanyuan was currently drawing a ten-meter-long mountain painting. It was magnificent and had a vast artistic conception.

Xiao Bao sneaked in and stood beside Xia Wanyuan, a little curious. “Mommy, what are you doing with so many paintings??”

Now, as far as the eye could see, the studio was basically filled with Xia Wanyuan’s paintings of all styles.

Xia Wanyuan pinched Xiao Bao’s face. “Do an art exhibition.”

“What is an art exhibition?” Xiao Bao widened his eyes curiously. “Can I go and take a look?”

“Of course.” Xia Wanyuan put down her brush and picked Xiao Bao up from the ground. “Can you help Mommy choose which to display?”
