  So many things happened that night and members of the media couldn't wait to go home and work on the latest scoop and exclusive headlines that would fill the news and social media the next day.

  There was no doubt that Xiao Xing had left an impact on everyone and the scandal between Xing Yiyue and Tang Moyu from the past would resurface once again. This time, in favor of the empress.

  The sudden twist in the scandal that happened six years ago was enough to shock everyone at the inauguration. It would also create ripples out in the public, especially to those who have heard about the scandal six years ago, once the news leaked the next day.

  Who would have thought that Xing Yiyue, the peerless goddess of the show business was the one responsible for Tang Moyu's demise years ago? This scandal would surely affect Xing Yiyue's status as the brightness star. Her glow would dim, while Luo Qingqing's name would become more popular because of her recent endors.e.m.e.nt for Xiao Xing Diamond Co.

  When Luo Qingqing severed her contract with the entertainment company she was signed with, the same one that housed Xing Yiyue, everyone thought that it was suicide on her career and her name would eventually be forgotten by the public.

  So it was a big surprise when her advertis.e.m.e.nt was played during the auction at Xiao Xing earlier. It turned out that not only was she capable of acting, but her modelling skills weren't bad at all either.

  "Sister Qingqing, have you seen their reactions? I told you it's worth the try!" Manager Kang told Luo Qingqing, seeing how everyone they met only had praises for her.

  Luo Qingqing smiled bashfully at her newest manager. It was true that her finances suffered a great loss when she chose to end her contract prem.a.t.u.r.ely. It also caused her to lose several projects that were in progress, which made it almost impossible for her to recover from her losses.

  When she received a phone call from Tang Moyu asking her if she wanted to become Xiao Xing's brand ambassador, Luo Qingqing was conflicted whether or not she should accept the empress's invitation. She wasn't sure of Tang Moyu's intention when she offered the opportunity.

  "Don't overthink, Lan Xiyan. I'm only doing this because I think it's a win-win for both of us. I don't have much time to find a brand ambassador to represent our company and I think you are suitable for the position." She remembered Tang Moyu's words from before.

  If it wasn't for her new manager's insistence, Luo Qingqing wouldn't have accepted Tang Moyu's offer under such short notice. Anyway, this was her first time seeing the advertis.e.m.e.nt she shot weeks ago too. She didn't expect that it would leave a deep impression on everyone.

  Now, several businessmen and big shots within the show business wanted to work with her. Manager Kang managed to exchange several business cards earlier, after Luo Qingqing's ads were played. This would surely make her talent's career advance, while Xing Yiyue's future would face uncertainty.

  After confronting Feng Tianhua and Xing Yiyue, Tang Moyu and Feng Tianyi left the two and decided to entertain some of their important guests of the night. Once again, they received best wishes from the others and had been promised to expect wedding gifts within the following days.

  "I'm surprised. How did the two of you manage to start Xiao Xing in such a short span of time? Madam, weren't you still at Tang Enterprise when Xiao Xing started?" The Minister of Commerce asked Tang Moyu.

  Tang Moyu glanced at her husband, who was still beaming with pride next to her. It didn't seem like his grin could be wiped off his face anytime soon.

  "Ah, yes. I was still at Tang Enterprise when Tianyi and I decided to start Xiao Xing. To be honest, the decision was in the spur of the moment. I have to give the credits to our brothers, He Lianchen and Song Fengyan for helping us make the Xiao Xing possible. If it weren't for the two of them, I don't think Tianyi and I would be able to start the company this smoothly on our own." She answered.

  He Lianchen, who wasn't expecting to receive such a compliment from his sworn brother's wife, coughed in his hand awkwardly and looked away, while Song Fengyan, who was standing next to him, gave him a hard slap on his back before giving the couple a wide grin and a thumbs up.

  Feng Tianyi only chucked and returned his attention to his wife. He was glad that Tang Moyu was able to get along well with those two. It really meant a lot to him that Tang Moyu accepted his friends.

  "Sister Moyu is really nice. At least she knows how to show gratitude, and unlike someone we know." Song Fengyan grumbled. It was loud enough for He Lianchen to hear him clearly though.

  "Oh?" He Lianchen arched a brow as Song Fengyan hooked an arm over his shoulder. "So it's Sister Moyu now, huh? How gullible can you be, Song Fengyan? With only a few words and Tang Moyu has already won your favor?"

  "Hey! You have to admit that Tang Moyu is able to put Tianyi in his place if she wants to. Shouldn't we be in her good grace if we want to control the devil's absurdity? I don't mind riding the empress's coattails if it means I could lead a peaceful life without Feng Tianyi constantly ruining my days with his outrageous demands." Song Fengyan said in defense.

  He Lianchen gave it a good thought and nodded. What Song Fengyan said made sense to him. If the devil was satisfied with Tang Moyu, he wouldn't make his and Song Fengyan's life miserable in the future.

  Now that Song Fengyan had found his missing daughter, and he and Yaoyao were expecting their first child, He Lianchen supposed that not being on the devil's beck and call sounds enticing after all.
