185 Posh Gossip over Champagne (2/2)

The ladies nodded.

”If they're still engaged and have not broken up, then why would Jin Corporation suddenly stop wanting to work with the Fans?” The Chief of Police's wife was puzzled.

Feng Wan set her champagne flute on the accent table beside her. ”You just said that your husband knows that the Fans are involved in some kind of corruption. Perhaps Jin Liwei also became aware of it. That boy is smart and knows his priorities. Although he hasn't been able to take Jin Corporation to a new higher level, he's doing an excellent job in maintaining the company's top position in the country's business world. That alone already shows his topnotch abilities. The Fans may be a family friend but it's not worth it to be dragged in the mud with them when their dirty laundry is aired to the public. That boy will prioritize his family and Jin Corporation over others.”

Second friend: ”You seem to know a lot about Jin Liwei.”

Feng Wan shrugged. ”Not really. This is just my own conjecture. Who knows? Perhaps the Fans' business proposals just sucked very badly that the boy had no choice but to reject them. Maybe that's the real reason why he's suddenly distancing Jin Corporation from the Fans.”

The ladies all laughed.

Afterwards, the first friend returned to the earlier topic they were discussing. ”So do you think the Fan girl is also involved in these young socialites' hate campaign against our dear Iris?”

Second friend: ”Yes.”

The wife of the Police Chief nodded.

”It's possible,” Feng Wan said. ”If I remember correctly, there were rumours about an affair between our dear Iris and that Jin Chonglin boy. There also seems to be an incident when the Fan girl denounced our dear Iris as the 'other woman'. Just with these alone, I'm sure that the Fan girl has bad feelings for our dear Iris.”

Her friends all agreed with her.

”If she really has something to do with this hate campaign, then she's really crafty,” Feng Wan continued. ”I don't believe that KeymonSTER hacker will exclude her if he found about her, so she must've directed her friends on the hate campaign without doing the dirty deeds herself. But who knows? Perhaps the Fan girl is really innocent in this matter and we're just overthinking.”

Her friends scoffed. Innocent? Someone spawned by the Fans?

The four posh ladies continued to gossip over champagne well into the night.
