Task Success.

Hao Ren rested the whole night and even the entire morning. He was not aware when Han Lingshi came over. Neither did he know the crisis that befell the Crown International as soon as they opened the office. 

Attorney Kane booked an appointment at the Crown International office. At this moment, he was sitting in a conference room with the Ye Shiling, who was gazing at him with amusement written over her face, she asked, "To what do I owe this pleasure?" 

The middle-aged attorney fixed his glasses and said, "Miss Ye, you are hereby served with a legal notice for slander and threatening my clients, Miss Han Lingshi and Mr. Hao Ren. You have twenty four hours to respond before we file the petition in the court of law." 

Ye Shiling was surprised and her ravishing eyes opened wide. She exclaimed, "What do you mean? Are you serious? She is suing me for a tease? And what basis?" 

Attorney Kane stood up and said, "I am not bound to tell you any of it, but be thankful that Mr. Hao Ren did not press assault charges against you." 

Then he directly picked up his bag and left the conference room. As he walked through the lobby, he looked at a lady walking over and winked at her. The lady was a person who worked in Crown International but reported to the Empress International. 

She was a spy. As soon as she received the wink, she sent a text message to one of her people in the media, and stirred up the storm. 

Inside the conference room, Ye Shiling was still in a daze, she looked at the notice before her and mumbled, "How can she do something like this? Wait, what if she has a proof? How? Could it be this was a pre-emptive attack? No, that cannot be it. She did not know I would go to the mall. Nobody did, then how." 

She clasped her forehead, and sat in the conference room thinking what to do, when suddenly her assistant came in panting, "President, reporters are gathered outside the building and they are all saying that Han Lingshi's lawyer served you with legal notice." 

Ye Shiling raised her head in a snap and stood up to approach the huge windows. Looking down, she could see a few big broadcast vans parked on the road. She grit her teeth and picked her phone and made a call to Han Lingshi. 

... 

Hao Ren had just freshened up and came out of his room when he heard Han Lingshi's voice in the living room. He walked out and was about to ask the lady what was she doing here instead of going to work, when she turned around and saw him. She beckoned him over, and he came to sit down next to her on the couch. 

Han Lingshi put her phone on speaker, and Ye Shiling's voice sounded from the other side, "Han Lingshi! You bitch! What have you done? How dare you sue me? Do you think you will get all the benefit from it? I am warning you to withdraw the notice or I will show you my true colors." 

Han Lingshi smiled and replied, "Miss Ye, have a good day. I have nothing to discuss with you, and your words are rather unpleasant, and I do not wish to converse with you. Goodbye." 

That said, she disconnected the call. Hao Ren asked, "Is she calling you because she is flustered?" 

Han Lingshi nodded, and said, "I have been recording all her calls." 

Hao Ren was surprised to hear this. He did not expect Han Lingshi to be so cunning and witty. He suddenly smiled and shook his head. The lady asked, "What happened?" 

The young man spoke softly, "I seem to have underestimated you, Miss Han. You are quite a businesswoman." 

Han Lingshi smiled, she spotted the trace of red on Hao Ren's face, and asked, "How do you feel?" 

"Not as miserable than yesterday." 

He answered her and wanted to ask something when Han Lingshi's phone rang again. She picked it up and questioned, "What is it?" 

After a few minutes, the call was disconnected, and Han Lingshi said, "Make sure to watch the news today. Also, Hao Ren, next time do not be so brave, I will not forgive you for being careless with yourself." 

Hao Ren stood up from the couch and saluted her in a full military style and replied, "Yes, Missus." 

Han Lingshi was amused and then she left the house. Hao Ren had nothing to do for the day, so he cooked himself a soup and sat down to drink it while watching the news. However, he did not find anything special about it. 

Thinking about it, Han Lingshi was more prominent with financial news, so while sipping a spoonful of soup he said, "House command, play financial news on the Television." 

**Command accepted, playing the financial news, now.**

In an instant, Hao Ren found what he was looking for. Han Lingshi was not joking, Ye Shiling was standing before the reporters outside her company, apparently she was trying to leave through the back door and find her lawyer when the secondary team of reporters surrounded her. They were not fools (at least not like in the other novel worlds). 

One of them almost shoved his mic in Ye Shiling's mouth as he questioned, "Miss Ye, have you been sued by Miss Han? Can you confirm it?" 

Ye Shiling glared through her tinted glasses but did not say anything. She wanted to call her body guards to clear the path but they she thought about what happened in the mall and said, "Everyone, please calm down. I did not do anything wrong. I have no idea why Han Lingshi is doing this but I have not done anything wrong to her. This is just a stunt to effect the stock market." 

Suddenly, a person who was already instructed by Kane, said, "Miss Ye, we have conclusive evidence that proves you did encounter Miss Han and another gentleman during their business meeting yesterday in the mall. Not only did you insult the gentleman but also said a few degrading things to and about Miss Han. Do you deny it?" 

Ye Shiling was shocked, she did not know what to say at this point but just generically deny all the allegations before she left the place. She was going to meet her lawyer, she was not a fool to not know that there were people inside the office who worked for Han Lingshi. 

She also had her people placed in the Empress International, however, Han Lingshi was too cautious, unlike her, she had limited the access to her cabin. 

... 

Hao Ren checked the stock market, and sure enough Crown International was slipping down while Empress International was steadily climbing up. Hao Ren changed the channel and learned that Empress Infra had signed a government contract for a highway project. This highway was going to connect three of the biggest economic sectors together and a lot many villages would see rapid development. 

He smiled and just when he was about to call Han Lingshi and congratulate her, the news presenter said, "This is coming in hot from our internet monitoring unit, a few videos about Ye Shiling, the president of the Crown International have been posted on the public platforms. These videos are suggesting that Miss Ye had bribed a few officials to gain some projects..." 

Following this a few clips were played and the people were stunned. Hao Ren was in a daze and slumped back in his chair, at this moment the system notified, *Ding: It has been detected that your wife has acquired fifty two percent of Crown International shares, and has become the biggest share holder. You have successfully helped her in the situation and successfully finished the task.* 

Hao Ren jumped off the couch and asked, "Wait a second, how did I help in this?" 

*Ding: Miss Han had the capability to do this earlier in the past but she was always hesitant, you took the punch for her, and that effected her enough to take the final step. Would you like to know your rewards, host?*
