Gao Yuxin was so happy; she wanted to find someone to share her feelings with, but realized she didn’t really have any friends. Eventually, the screen paused on Kong Shubai’s name in her contacts.
She thought about it and resisted the impulse to dial his number—Kong Shubai must be working now, best not to disturb him.
But the very next moment, her phone rang unexpectedly, and it was Kong Shubai calling!
Gao Yuxin was startled. After a moment’s hesitation, she answered the call, calming herself before softly speaking into the receiver, "Hello?"
Kong Shubai said, "Xiao Gao, check out Weibo and turn on the TV right now."
Gao Yuxin paused briefly but complied with Kong Shubai’s request, opening Weibo, and was immediately stunned by what she saw. Hurriedly, she turned on the TV and was even more shocked by the news there.
Chen Jiao, like a madman, had recorded a video, detailing online the abuse and mistreatment he inflicted on several female artists over the years, even sharing his twisted satisfaction.
In the footage, he laughed maniacally, releasing photos of the victims, albeit with their faces pixelated.
The entire internet was ablaze.
The news was also being broadcast on television.
What was going on?
Gao Yuxin stared blankly at the news on TV, unable to react for a long time.
It wasn’t until she heard "hello, hello" through the phone that she snapped back to reality.
It turns out Kong Shubai hadn’t ended the call.
"Kong ge?" Gao Yuxin was still filled with shock.
"You’ve seen it all," Kong Shubai said.
"Yes..." Gao Yuxin’s voice was very soft.
"I don’t know what your relationship is with him, but I thought you should know about this news. That day, when you said you were going to the bathroom, you came back quickly and looked unwell. Later, I checked the club’s surveillance and saw you encountering him in the hallway." Kong Shubai explained why he had alerted Gao Yuxin to the news.
"Kong ge..." Gao Yuxin didn’t know what to say.
"Alright, if you don’t want to talk, you don’t have to. It’s nothing." Kong Shubai laughed, "Don’t think too much about it. If you’re feeling down, we can meet up for a meal; it’s my treat this time."
"Thank you, Kong ge." Gao Yuxin’s voice was slightly hoarse, her nose tingling.
"I’m going to work now, we’ll set a time when I’m free. Okay, that’s it. Bye." Kong Shubai was obviously being hurried by someone and hung up hastily, heading back to filming.
Gao Yuxin held onto her phone tightly, staring blankly at the TV while her emotions surged within her.
Was this a coincidence?
No, definitely not!
The following days only confirmed Gao Yuxin’s suspicions—this was no coincidence.
The situation with Chen Jiao was spiraling out of control.
The internet was flooded with condemnation, Hell empty and all the devils here. People like Chen Jiao deserved death.
Then, detailed and complete evidence of tax evasion and fraud by the Chen Family’s company was revealed online, alongside their involvement with organized crime and several deaths. All the incriminating evidence of bribery by Chen Jiao’s father was also exposed in full detail online.
Chen Jiao’s grandfather had already been hospitalized with a heart attack.
Everyone knew the Chen Family was completely finished. Those who needed to be arrested were, the death sentences were pronounced, and executed at the swiftest speed possible to quell public outrage.
