Chapter 19: The Other Woman

Qiao Yu took a deep breath. "Yes. I accept your offer, Miss Long."

Of course he was going to accept her offer!

Although his overall income as a private financial manager belonged to the higher stratum compared to the average person holding the same title, his job mostly consisted of safeguarding finances and balancing expenditures to prevent accounts from emptying.

Furthermore, most of his clients were children of the wealthy who spent money like breathing air. He was more of a financial babysitter rather than an impressive financial expert.

He always dreamed of using his education and skills to invest a large amount of money, watch it grow, collect the profits and then use the profits to invest again. Now that he was offered such a chance, of course he was going to take it.

Handle half a billion? Give him the money! He swore that he was going to turn this brat into a billionaire in her early twenties. Just watch him.

"Excellent!" Iris smiled. "Dom, bring the employment contract and the Non-Disclosure Agreement."

"Right away, boss!"

After the contract signing, Iris and Qiao Yu shook hands.

"I'll leave the matter with my father to you, Mr. Qiao."

"Don't worry, Miss Long. I will also send my resignation to the President today and make arrangements for my other clients."

"Good. I'm trusting you with my finances. You've proven yourself these past few years. It's unfortunate that I was too immature to appreciate your hard work back then."

Could someone pinch him? Qiao Yu felt a warm emotion trying to burst from his chest, but he suppressed it with a firm nod. "I'm just doing my job."

"Indeed. From now on, I will treat you and all my other employees well. As long as you don't cheat or betray me, you will be rewarded based on the results of your hard work. But if you dare betray me or cheat me out of my money―and trust me, I will know―I will destroy you."

Qiao Yu suddenly felt goosebumps seeing the Young Miss looking and speaking with such cold viciousness. He would never doubt this brat…er, his new boss from now on.

Someone who could make half a billion in just a few months wasn't someone to be trifled with.

The Young Miss really changed. Maybe she really hit her head too hard from the accident, and thank goodness for that! She should have hit her head sooner, so he could have worked with her half billion earlier.

He felt excited working for this new Miss Long, and of course working with her half billion. He almost rubbed his hands together in anticipation and excitement, but he suppressed himself and maintained his usual stern expression. He would wait until he got home later to jump and dance in celebration. The challenge of making her into a billionaire by her early twenties energized him.

"I will do my best, Miss Long."

"That's what I want to hear. Also don't be surprised when I make a few big withdrawals from my old account in the next few days. Rest assured that I'm not going to waste them."

"Understood, Miss Long."

Iris planned to open several foreign bank accounts and convert the money into foreign currencies, in case of emergency and for additional security. She would also make her own investments on the side. She couldn't fully trust another person to handle 100% of her money.

After talking a bit more, they finally ended the meeting.

Although the financial manager had an excellent poker face, Iris could still sense the impatient excitement in his eyes.

Dom showed Qiao Yu out and led him to the private elevator.

Iris remained in the library office enjoying her Tieguanyin tea and resumed reading the Japanese light novel from earlier before Qiao Yu came.

###

The previous discussion online about Iris Long turned into rumours of a love triangle between her, Jin Chonglin and Fan Luo. The rumour about Iris being pregnant and Jin Chonglin being the father of the baby was also quite popular.

Things became even more chaotic when Fan Luo and Jin Chonglin finally posted their responses to the rumours on their official blogs.

First was Fan Luo.

LuoFanFan: "No matter what happened between my fiancé and that other woman, it's all in the past. My fiancé is the love of my life and I accept everything about him including his past, present and future. Countless women have already tried driving a wedge between us lovers, but I am the woman he chose to marry in the end. I will always stand by my future husband. I will do my best to be the best wife and mother to our future children. I ask everyone to let bygones be bygones. Some people just don't know when to give up, especially when it's about someone as great and handsome as my fiancé. Let's not lower ourselves to their level, alright? Thank you everyone for your support!"

The replies flooded her post.

"Oh my God!"

"Is this a confirmation that Jin Chonglin and Iris Long really had an affair? Poor Fan Luo!"

"Holy shit."

"It's official. Iris Long is a shameless slut."

"Iris Long has been a shameless slut since before. I'm not really surprised."

"Calling all my fellow fans to protect our @JinChonglin from all the shameless sluts in the world, especially from that dirty @IrisLong."

+279

+1,003 likes and counting.

"Luo Luo is such a real lady. So classy, so forgiving. If I was her and someone tried to snatch my man, I'll scratch the whore's face off and throw her to the ocean for the sharks to feed on."

"That slut doesn't deserve Luo Luo's forgiveness!"

"Fan Luo is so magnanimous! As expected of the heiress of the Fan family."

"@LuoFanFan Please marry me instead!"

"Poster above, go away! Know your place! How dare a peasant like you propose to Princess Luo Luo?! She already belongs to our Prince Lin Lin!"

"We heart LinLuo forever!"

"So is Fan Luo confirming that Jin Chonglin made Iris Long pregnant?"

"No way! I won't accept that evil witch's bastard child, even if it's true. Only Princess Luo Luo has the right to bear Prince Lin Lin's heir."

"Fan Luo didn't say anything about the pregnancy, but based on what she said, that Iris slut definitely tried to seduce Jin Chonglin."

"Despicable! Die @IrisLong!"

"@JinChonglin Please say something!"

Everyone kept an eye on Jin Chonglin's account, waiting to see if he was going to respond to the rumours like his fiancée.

Moments later, Jin Chonglin finally posted on his Weibo.

JinChonglin: "I want to clarify the truth. Miss Iris Long and I have no relationship whatsoever to each other. We just casually met at a few events but that was it. She didn't seduce me, nor I her. I have never made her pregnant. We never had that kind of relationship. All of these rumours are just that, plain rumours. Please don't make up stories. I ask my fans to continue supporting me without pulling others down. Thank you for your understanding. On another note, I will be releasing my next album soon. Please look forward to it!"

His power was on another level. As soon as he posted, the responses of his hawk-eyed fans were so quick that not even a second passed after his post before the likes and replies bombarded his account.

+597

+19,998

+100,262 likes and counting.

"We understand, Prince Lin Lin! We members of your army will definitely continue supporting you! Can't wait for your next album!"

"Oh my god. A new album?! I'm so excited!"

"Anyone else finding this suspicious? Fan Luo already denounced Iris Long as the 'other woman'. Why is Jin Chonglin suddenly denying everything and even defending Iris Long? Hmmm…."

"You're right. I think Iris Long has impacted their relationship more than we expected. Is there trouble brewing between the engaged couple?"

"Oh no! We LinLuo fans would destroy anyone who dares drive a wedge between our prince and princess!"

"Mobilize our LinLuo army! Mission: total annihilation of Iris Long!"

"I think it's just Jin Chonglin acting as a gentleman and giving face to the Longs. Iris is a daughter of the Long family after all. The Longs may not be as powerful or as wealthy as the Jins, but they are still comparable to the Fans. They are people who are not to be easily offended. Actually, the Longs are slightly wealthier and has a nobler history than the Fans. Some of their ancestors were aristocrats from ancient times. But of course, that doesn't matter in this age anymore."

"Poster above, what you say makes sense."

"Iris Long is the shame of the Long family. The Longs should just disown her."

"Yeah! Disown that shameless slut!"

"Who cares about that slut?! All I care about is saving money to buy my idol's upcoming album! Oh my God! I'm so excited!"

This discussion online exploded to the point that the newspapers and tabloids were ready to publish the story, but they found themselves unable to do so.

It appeared that someone powerful was blocking them from the shadows.
