“I am Lion.”
When these words were spoken, the people in the office stood stunned with amazement. Bei Chuan and Lu Qi’er looked at Lin Shiyu in blatant disbelief. Fu Qinglun stared at Lin Shiyu and his eyes revealed astonishment. He should have guessed that Lin Shiyu was Lion.
She was pursuing her studies in Singapore for these three years. He had hired someone to investigate her, but he was unable to gather any information about her. This was because she had become so powerful and influential that she could resist against him. She had not wanted for him to investigate her.
So she was Lion, the A-list songwriter who had suddenly become all the rage in the music industry. She had a shocking net worth and was described to be earning millions of dollars by the minute. It was as if she was a money printing machine. To think he had previously tried to obtain eight million dollars from her. To her, this amount was simply insignificant.
She did not need any man to give her money. She already had more than enough money on her own.
She had not depended on any rich men from prestigious families. She herself had managed to make her own riches.
She was Lion.
The mysterious veil of Lion had finally been lifted.
Fu Qinglun felt as if there were ripples forming in his heart. He had always known that she was very talented, but he had not imagined that it would be to this extent.
He stole her song, “Legend”. Following that, she had produced another legend.
At this moment, the lawyer behind her stepped forward and handed over a document. “President Fu, this is a legal document served on behalf of Lion. From now onwards, we are formally issuing this document to Miss Lu Qi’er. She is required to compensate the amount stipulated in the contract, equivalent to 10 billion dollars, within one week to Lion. Should Miss Lu Qi’er be unable to compensate this 10 billion dollars, we will formally press charges against her. Due to the terms of the contract, her chances of winning this lawsuit are equivalent to zero. So she will be imprisoned.”
Lin Shiyu’s manager, Bao Zi, also stepped forward. “President Fu, this is Lion’s infringement of rights document. From now onwards, we are formally charging Miss Lu Qi’er for illegally using Lion’s first song, “Legend”, three years ago. We are also asking for monetary compensation. It is estimated that Miss Lu Qi’er has earned a few hundred millions from her years of fame and media activities following “Legend” and thus we are demanding a hundred million dollars as compensation. In other words, from now onwards, President Fu has to help Miss Lu Qi’er pay an amount of 10.1 billion dollars as compensation.”
Fu Qinglun’s eyes swept the reputation and assets compensation agreement documents issued by the Court and his gaze landed on Lin Shiyu.
Lin Shiyu’s pretty eyes looked at him blandly. She walked towards him in her high heels and stood in front of him.
At this point, both of them were standing by the window. The sunlight streamed through the window and illuminated Lin Shiyu’s small, pretty face. She stretched out her pale hand and tucked a lock of hair behind her white earlobe, exuding an enchanting demeanor.
She gently opened her mouth and said in a pleasant voice, “Young Master Fu, I know you will help Lu Qi’er. But 10.1 billion dollars is not a small amount. If the Fu Corporation were to take out so much money suddenly, it would cause a financial breakdown. And so, I propose another plan.”
Fu Qinglun’s cold eyes were filled with the shadow of this woman. How many sides could she possibly have and how many treasures could possibly be dug out from her?
She was just like a book. One would not know what else she was hiding unless one flipped to the last page.
How could anyone not be mesmerized by this woman?
“What is the alternative plan?” Fu Qinglun asked.
Lin Shiyu stretched out her pale hand and Manager Bao Zi handed over a sheet of paper. She lifted her luscious, long lashes, looked at the man and passed him the sheet of paper. “Young Master Fu, let’s divorce.”
Fu Qinglun glanced weakly at the sheet of white paper in her hand. The words written on it, “Divorce Agreement”, deeply pierced his eyes.
“Young Master Fu, if you sign this, I will not require Lu Qi’er to compensate this 10.1 billion dollars. I’m using this 10.1 billion dollars to purchase and terminate our marriage.”
She was going to use 10.1 billion dollars to purchase and terminate their marriage.
Fu Qinglun looked at her and suddenly there was a snort as he forced out a cold laugh. He frostily stared at her and strode towards her.
Lin Shiyu retreated. Her slender back leaned against the window and her vision went dark for a moment as Fu Qinglun leaned into her.
There was an oppressive air about him that had her entrapped. “Lin Shiyu, this time you have returned from Singapore to… divorce me. You have planned to divorce me all along.”
She had returned from Singapore with a clear motive. That motive was to divorce him.
She had used Lu Qi’er to scheme against him.
Lin Shiyu indolently leaned against the window. Her pretty eyes gave out a luminous sparkle and she continued to look at him with an expression akin to apathy.
Fu Qinglun’s throat bobbed. The cold scent from her body wafted to his nose. He hunched his broad body to get closer to her.
His dark red, sexy lips inched closer to her.
If he was any closer, he could have kissed her.
But a pale finger was in the way of their lips. Lin Shiyu looked at him and shook her head. “Young Master Fu, in the future, keep your distance from me. I will wait for you to sign the agreement. Remember, you only have seven days to do so.”
After speaking, Lin Shiyu pushed him aside and left.
Click clack. The sound of her high heels against the floor quickly disappeared and she left with her entourage.
After she left, the office became quiet once again.
Lu Qi’er was still unable to react. Lin Shiyu was Lion, Lin Shiyu was indeed Lion!
“President, how should this matter be handled? 10.1 billion is not a small sum. If we were to take out the money, there would be a financial breakdown in the company. How about we let Lu Qi’er go to jail?” Bei Chuan said.
“No, please don’t do it. Qing Lun, you have to help me!” Lu Qi’er shook her head manically. “Lin Shiyu did that to us intentionally. She’s using me to divorce you!”
The outline of Fu Qinglun’s handsome, fair face stiffened and it was as sharp as the blade of a knife. He curved his lips maliciously.
She wanted to divorce him.
She had issued the last ultimatum and given him seven days to agree to divorce.
The cold scent from her body was still swirling under his nose. But when he sniffed intentionally, it felt like it was merely an illusion. She had left him.
In the future, he would not be able to touch her again.
There was a sense of loss spreading in the depths of his heart. It was then that he realized he had lost her.
There was a deep, faraway look in Fu Qinglun’s eyes. No one could understand his thoughts. He swept all the documents on the table onto the floor and his icy-cold lips spat out a heartless word. “Scram!”
…
In the next month, Lin Shiyu became the rage of the entire music and entertainment industries at the speed of lightning.
Firstly, Lin Shiyu revealed on Weibo that her name was Lion. She personally uncovered the mysterious veil of Lion and caught everyone’s attention with such a powerful persona.
Half of the music industry including the ‘Heavenly Kings’ and musical divas tried to get into contact. Tang Mo’er, who had one hundred million fans herself, had messaged her on Weibo. Within an hour, the number of visitors on Lion’s Weibo account had reached sixty million and by nightfall, she had gained sixty million fans.
