After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Hearing the name Xiong Xiaoyan, Wang Shuai, Liu Yuanyuan, and Chen Yali all stood up.

For them, the name Xiong Xiaoyan was naturally well-known; she was considered one of the more outstanding second-tier celebrities, and what made her famous wasn't a specific film or television work but her impressive figure, which is why her male fans called her "big bear".

The company also intentionally marketed her as an "Otaku's Goddess", and her popularity had been quite high for the past two years with plenty of discussion topics, though she lacked a significant hit work.

Her acting was always heavily criticized!

Also an artist under Tianmei Media, Xiao Yinqiu, who became vastly popular last year, had the opposite situation. The low-profile Xiao Yinqiu didn't have many scandals or topics to hype, but she won over countless fans with her outstanding acting.

Escorted by two assistants, Xiong Xiaoyan entered the banquet hall, and after entering, she began to look around, finally spotting Yang Hao amidst the crowd.

A radiant smile appeared on her face, in fact, she had sent a message to her boss on Weixun on her way here but hadn't received any response.

"Holy shit, why is Bear coming our way?"

Seeing Xiong Xiaoyan walking straight towards their table, Wang Shuai cursed excitedly and then swallowed nervously.

Chen Yali and Liu Yuanyuan quickly raised their phones; this was a big star they only used to see on TV, but now she was getting closer and closer to them...

"Mr. Yang!"

In front of hundreds of watchful eyes in the hall, Xiong Xiaoyan walked up to Yang Hao with an ebullient smile, respectfully greeting him.

Seeing this, everyone's gaze fell back on Yang Hao.

If a big star like her would go over to greet someone so politely, he must be no ordinary person!

Only then did people like Wang Shuai, Liu Yuanyuan, and others at the same table as Yang Hao realize that the big star had come to find Yang Hao.

"You've worked hard, I heard you specifically rushed back from Hengdian."

Yang Hao gave the petite powerhouse a slight nod.

"Not hard at all."

"Mr. Yang's relatives are my relatives, after all. When it comes to family matters, I have to be at the forefront!"

Xiong Xiaoyan's smile was as radiant as ever, but her words shocked everyone present.

Her demeanor was a bit too eager, even a touch servile, and wasn't like the normal interaction between friends.

"Who is this guy?"

"Even Bear is being so polite to him!"

"Old Wang, does your family have such an influential relative?"

"..."

People in the crowd whispered to each other.

"Sister Ou looks great."

"You look much younger than in the videos; I almost didn't recognize you."

Xiong Xiaoyan then greeted Chen Haiou, who was sitting next to Yang Hao.

"Bear, you're making me blush with your compliments."

"If we're talking about being young and beautiful, no one can compare to you!"

Chen Haiou responded cheerfully, engaging in a bit of mutual flattery with the big star.

However, because the other party initiated the conversation, Chen Haiou suddenly felt a sense of pride, at least she had made a good impression in front of friends and family.

After all, among so many people at the scene, Xiong Xiaoyan only greeted Yang Hao and her.

And at this point, the Liu family father and daughter were completely stunned!

Liu Changhe was actually a bit more composed, as he didn't know who Xiong Xiaoyan was; it was only from the chatter of those around him that he realized she was a big star.

But it was different for Liu Yuanyuan; Xiong Xiaoyan was already somewhat famous when she was in high school, and many of the boys in her class liked her.

At that time, Xiong Xiaoyan played the second female lead in an idol drama, and because of her fashionable dress, many girls, including Liu Yuanyuan, imitated her style. Liu Yuanyuan remembers having bought a hair clip that was the same model worn by Xiong Xiaoyan in the drama.

Although not an idol, the shock of suddenly seeing a celebrity she had liked during her high school years right before her own eyes was quite stunning for Liu Yuanyuan.

However, what shocked her even more was the celebrity's attitude towards Yang Hao.

She used the phrase "family business", a rhetoric usually employed by subordinates when trying to curry favor with their leaders.

For instance, when doing something for a leader, if the leader says "you've worked hard", the subordinate might respond with "it's all for our own good" to demonstrate their loyalty and commitment.

But Xiong Xiaoyan wasn't with the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, and even if Yang Hao was the president of the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, she wouldn't be so courteous.

So, Liu Yuanyuan speculated that Yang Hao might not just be the president of the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group; perhaps he held other identities as well.

Considering this, she naturally felt frightened, especially since she had previously offended Mr. Yang.

After exchanging pleasantries with Chen Haiou, Xiong Xiaoyan's gaze reflexively fell on Chen Ruohan, since the beautiful young lady had been holding onto her boss's arm all along, clearly indicating a special relationship.

But Xiong Xiaoyan was self-aware; she knew it wasn't her place to be jealous, and could only envy the young lady for being close to her boss, while quietly planning to build a good relationship with her.

"You'd better get busy, otherwise everyone is looking at you!"

The banquet hall had centered around Yang Hao's table by this time, with almost all attention on Xiong Xiaoyan. She had clearly outshone the bride and groom, stealing the limelight.

"Okay, Mr. Yang, I will get ready then."

Xiong Xiaoyan obediently nodded her head, then greeted Chen Haiou, before being ushered by two assistants to the makeup room behind the banquet hall.

The bridegroom Wang Xiaogang and the bride Zheng Qianqian hurriedly followed as well. They hadn't had formal communication with the host of the event and took this opportunity while she was preparing to discuss the wedding proceedings.

Of course, that was a secondary concern. Their main goal was to get a photo and an autograph with Xiong Xiaoyan, especially for Zheng Qianqian, who was a huge fan. It was her idea to choose Xiong Xiaoyan as the host for her wedding.

However, before today, neither Wang Xiaogang nor Xiong Xiaoyan had announced this news publicly because they weren't sure whether the big star would really come to host their wedding. If they had released the news earlier and she hadn't shown up, they would have lost face.

Now that she had arrived, both of them could finally relax and excitedly prepare to take photos with the host of their wedding.

Once Xiong Xiaoyan entered the makeup room, the crowd that had their phones out to take pictures finally put their phones away.

Many immediately posted on their social media "Moments" or Kuaiyin, proclaiming how meeting Xiong Xiaoyan at a wedding was quite prestigious and worth boasting about.

After Xiong Xiaoyan left, attention turned to Yang Hao; after all, he was someone before whom that big star Xiong Xiaoyan had to bow and scrape. His status was apparent.

"Yang, are you really familiar with that celebrity?"

After calming herself down, Chen Haiying asked with a chuckle.

"She is an artist under my company."

At this point, Yang Hao didn't have anything to hide.

The cat is out of the bag: I'm a billionaire! The boss of Jiangcheng's biggest entertainment company!

"An artist from your company?"

"Yang, do you also own an entertainment company??" Chen Haiying asked in shock.

Yang Hao nodded: "Yes, that's right."

"Mr. Yang, you're the boss of Tianmei too, right??"

Wang Shuai, who was somewhat involved in the industry, stuttered. He knew that Xiong Xiaoyan was an artist under Tianmei Media.

Earlier, Yang Hao had said Xiong Xiaoyan was an artist from his company, which meant that he was the boss of Tianmei Media!

Already finding the identity of the president of Jiangcheng Newspaper Group unapproachable, Wang Shuai realized it was just one of Mr. Yang's titles, and in terms of market value, Tianmei Media was worth much more than Jiangcheng Newspaper Group.

Moreover, Jiangcheng Newspaper Group was just a local media company that had only recently become widely known to netizens due to its successful new media presence.

But Tianmei Media was a top national film and television production company. Over the years, several of their productions had become cultural phenomena, securing Tianmei Media's reputation as a respected powerhouse.

Sitting at the same table with the boss of Tianmei Media, Wang Shuai naturally felt honored and surprised. If it weren't for an occasion like this wedding, he would never have had such an opportunity!

Initially, he wasn't overly keen on attending today's event because his relationship with Chen Yali was not that stable. Although she was officially his girlfriend, he had ambiguous ties with several female broadcasters at the internet celebrity media company where he worked.

Thus, he was reluctant to meet Chen Yali's family. After all, it was just a relationship, no need for such a fuss!

But Chen Yali insisted and, in the end, Wang Shuai agreed to come with the intention of leaving immediately after the meal.

However, unexpectedly, he encountered big CEO Yang Hao, and now he felt somewhat relieved that he had attended the wedding. Otherwise, how could he have met a big shot like Yang Hao!

Might as well curry favor with Mr. Yang for a future job opportunity if he couldn't make it at Youhe Media!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Meanwhile, Liu Yuanyuan quietly pulled out her phone and typed "Tianmei Media president" into the browser.

Following that, a stream of related news about Tianmei Media popped up, with the news of a leadership change in Tianmei Media particularly eye-catching.

Liu Yuanyuan clicked on the article and then saw Yang Hao's name and a small ID photo within.

The photo appeared to be taken from the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group's official website. Though not particularly clear, since the person in question was sitting at the same table, Liu Yuanyuan easily recognized the man she and her father had offended.

Alright, this boomerang has come back to hit me.

I've managed to offend a big CEO worth tens or even hundreds of billions!

Liu Yuanyuan wore a despondent expression. She quietly turned off her phone, considering whether she should apologize to Mr. Yang.

But she was too proud to lower herself; not to mention the relatives around, she had her own pride to contend with.

She stole a glance at Yang Hao, silently sneering internally: You're a big CEO, surely you won't bother with a "student" like me!

When one finds themselves in a weaker position, people often paint their own circumstances in even more tragic colors to elicit sympathy.

At this moment, Liu Yuanyuan had automatically cast herself in the role of the underdog, even imagining a storyline where she was bullied by the powerful CEO.

"Today, I'm not a CEO; I'm just Ruohan's boyfriend!"

Yang Hao wrapped his arm around Little White Flower's shoulder, asserting his identity once more in front of Chen Ruohan's relatives.

Chen Ruohan happily snuggled into Yang Hao's embrace, this gesture providing her with plenty of security.

Ding!

Congratulations to the host for completing the task: [Little White Flower's Sense of Security]

Reward title [Spiritual Consoler]!

Reward passive skill [Nine Hundred Million Girls' Dream]!

Right after Yang Hao made his official stance, the System's voice finally sounded.

Nice!

Yang Hao was delighted. With the title of [Spiritual Consoler], women could enjoy three times the happiness, an experience too fabulous to even imagine!!
