After waiting for nearly half a minute, the international call was finally connected, and an appealing foreign voice immediately came through the phone.

“Yixue? Is that you?”

“Yes, it’s me, Lisa. How are you?” Upon hearing the familiar voice on the other end, Xu Yixue finally revealed a slight smile.

“I’m doing well, Yixue. How have you been since returning to your motherland? I’ve been so busy lately, otherwise, I’d really like to visit you in Yan Country,” Lisa said over the phone.

The pleasant voice on the other end belonged to Xu Yixue’s former classmate from her time studying in America. Not only did she come from a very impressive family background, but her own abilities were also quite strong. She was a young master at an Ivy League University and went straight to Wall Street after graduation to work in the highly-envied finance sector.

The Heishui Corporation investigating Xinghai Media was actually an American branch of the company in Yan Country. The real headquarters was on Wall Street in America. Among those Xu Yixue knew, only Lisa worked there and had a close relationship with Yixue. So when Xu Yixue needed to gather intelligence, she had no one else to turn to but Lisa, her somewhat close foreign friend.

“Lisa, my company has encountered a lot of problems recently, and I need your help. Do you know about Heishui Corporation?” With an impending enemy, Xu Yixue had no time to beat around the bush and urgently stated her request.

“Heishui Corporation? Aren’t they that notorious investigative company in the industry? They specialize in digging up other companies’ financial issues and then collaborate with big capital to short-sell the stocks, making a fortune for themselves while the companies and investors are left with nothing. Of course, I know about them!”

“Yes, that’s the one. Unfortunately, I took over my family’s business soon after I returned to the country, but in the past couple of days, I discovered that my company might be targeted by Heishui Corporation. They are likely to attack us today, and I’m afraid I might not be able to cope, so I hope you can help me by asking around to see if they have any plans.”

“People at Heishui Corporation are always mysterious, but luckily someone from my family happens to be in their management. I’ll handle this matter,” said Lisa confidently over the phone.

“Hello, Lisa, do you have any news?” Xu Yixue asked impatiently.

“Yixue, what would you think of me if I said I had no news?” Lisa’s voice came through the phone, and Xu Yixue instantly felt a wave of disappointment.

However, before she could say that it was okay, Lisa’s voice suddenly became playful and she said to Xu Yixue, “Haha, I’m just kidding. I did manage to find out some information for you. However, this is indeed a secret within Heishui Corporation, and had it not been for that executive being a member of our family, it would have been quite difficult for anyone else to uncover this news.”

“You’ve worked hard, Lisa. What exactly did you find out?” Xu Yixue asked, hopeful.

“Heishui Corporation is planning to leak negative news about Xinghai Media to the major media outlets at 10 a.m. today. The negative issues mainly relate to financial fraud in Xinghai Media’s financial reports, artists’ defections, and the company’s involvement in unfair competition. I don’t know the specifics, but this is probably going to be a devastating blow to your media company,” Lisa explained.

“I can’t thank you enough, Lisa. I will make sure to express my gratitude properly, but now I need to start preparing our response. I hope you understand,” Xu Yixue said.

“Haha, go on and get ready to respond, Yixue. I hope the information I got can be of some help to you. When we meet again, I hope to see that fearless Yan Country beauty once more. Good luck!” Lisa wished.

“Lisa, thank you! Bye-bye,” Xu Yixue replied and said her goodbyes before hanging up the phone.

After ending the call, Xu Yixue quickly collected her thoughts.

Though she did not know how Lisa obtained the news, Xu Yixue chose to believe in the intelligence.

First, Xu Yixue really got along well with Lisa when they were in America, and Lisa would definitely not fool her about such matters.
