C29 It's Complicated

Yu Lian threw the two videos she had edited into the group.

Sure enough, she was right.

She seemed to be able to detect a hint of relief in Lee Yu's calm words. It seemed that Ms Yu and Wang Luqing really did have a good relationship.

The relationship between Wang Luqing and Lee Yu was quite strange at first. The day Yu Lian followed Pei Kiu to City C, Wang Luqing made a last-minute announcement, but when she returned to the hotel, the night wind blew a little. Wang Luqing, the dead salted fish, was fine, but her assistant little sister... lay down.

The next day, when she first arrived, her assistant sister was still full of life. She greeted everyone and packed everything for Wang Luqing. After half an hour, the girl was like a young grass that had been exposed to the sun.

Lee Yu had volunteered to take care of her assistant sister and Wang Luqing at that time. Even Yu Lixing, who was fishing and watching from the side, was shocked by her enthusiasm.

It was probably because Ms Yu was a fan of the original work.

Yu Lian thought to herself. Once again, she felt that these three words were like a curse that could be used hundreds of times.

Lee Yu's methodicalness and meticulousness were amazing. She had done her job so well that even Wang Luqing, who had always been demanding, couldn't help but look at her in a new light.

Just like that, the two of them got to know each other better. Lee Yu, who was known for her cool-headedness, was surprised to hear her call someone by name.

So, does anyone know this man?

Yu Lian asked in the group after she had sorted out her thoughts.

It was quiet.

Yu Lixing was the first to break the silence.

Why are you looking for this person? Let's just post the video. There's no need to delve too deep into it.

Yu Lixing had always been a smooth person, but unlike Yu Lian's boldness, he walked the path of caution. His relationship with others, his grasp of matters, Yu Lixing had always been very good at these things. Everything was according to his own standards, and he tried his best not to make any mistakes.

No, wait a minute, I think they have more to come.

Yu Lian reluctantly typed as she walked over to the fridge. She opened the cabinet door and took out a beautifully wrapped jelly. This kind of jelly would be reported in the fridge once a day, and each time, there would only be one. It could be seen that Master Pei also maintained a certain pattern in this kind of thing.

However, this kind of faint lemon fragrance was quite addictive, just like the person who sent the jelly.

After that? Soong Lan rarely made a bubble.

If she wanted to torture Wang Luqing to death, two videos were not enough.

As an A-list celebrity, Wang Luqing had risen and fallen in the entertainment industry. How could the capital she had built be shaken by two fake videos? It was just that the company and public relations department behind her didn't do anything and didn't help her fight this war. If her company had come out to wash up, not only would Wang Luqing not be so passive, but it was hard to say who would win and who would lose.

Are you sure?!

Soong Lan used the familiar symbol again. It was obvious that she was confused by what Yu Lian had said.

Yu Lian slowly lifted the lid of the jelly and sent a blushing emoji before starting to type.

You always have to think about the worst.

There were a lot of problems with the wavy lines at the end.

Soong Lan did not reply for a long time.

Yu Lian thought that this girl might have gone to throw her phone. After laughing for a while, she finally explained her final goal.

The man in the first video looked familiar to me. I want to investigate him. If possible, please suppress the news before reporting it.

In the end, Soong Lan made a decision.

I'll go with you.

F * ck.

This development was a little out of her expectations.

But Miss Lan was determined. What she had decided on was not something that could be changed by just anyone. Yu Lian chewed on her jelly and thought about it for a long time. There was nothing wrong with that. On the contrary, Yu Lixing's reaction was a little intense.

Yu Lian did not continue to watch Yu Lixing and Soong Lan argue in the group. In any case, no matter how good Yu Lixing was at talking, he couldn't win against Soong Lan. She turned on her computer, logged on to QQ, took a small account, and sent the first video to someone else.

Is this person from the T-City circle?

After a long time, a word popped up from the other side.

Yes.

Yu Lian raised her eyebrows.

Check.

That person sent her a string of numbers.

F * ck!

The price was a little touching.

However, the money that Master Pei had transferred to her in the first place was enough for her to squander for a while. And the ultimate purpose of her investigation had something to do with Master Pei.

Just take it as her working for Master Pei.

Finally, Yu Lian gritted her teeth and transferred the money. After the other party replied with an OK emoji, Yu Lian closed the QQ conversation window.

She was now in touch with a man she happened to know in the T-City circle, who also sold information, but who was a taboo in the circle because he had the principle of selling information to anyone who had money. But the other side was wild and had a mysterious background, and had not yet been defeated by any of his enemies. He was one of the most powerful men in T-City.

After the matters in the group were settled, they started to investigate the news of that man.

Next...

Yu Lian happily ate a spoonful of jelly. The faint lemon taste melted in her mouth, making her feel refreshed.

With that man as bait, it would be great if she could catch a big fish.

...

At night.

Yu Lian received a document.

Yu Lian did as she was told and skimmed through the information she had found.

Wang Hong, male, thirty-four years old.

Yu Lian tapped on the keyboard, her delicate brows knitted into a frown.

The information in front of her was all normal.

But the more he read, the more he felt that something was wrong. On the surface, he was a paparazzi reporter, but in reality, he was in cahoots with the underworld! The news that he was suspected of dealing drugs with someone was also very subtle!

F * ck.

Yu Lian scratched her head in frustration and continued to read.

Half a month ago, this person left T City and headed to S City. It was rumored that he was going to conduct a drug deal there. His private life had always been messy, and he often took women to hotels to get a room.

Yu Lian looked at the name of the hotel he often went to and cursed in her heart. Wasn't this the hotel where the paparazzi had filmed the video? Wasn't this too much?

Yu Lian didn't calm down.

She really wanted to flip the table.

What the hell was going on?

Looking at the document that had been sent over, Yu Lian felt that she had once again come into contact with someone she could not interact with.

No, no, no.

Let's think about it first.

Wang Luqing first received a private photo, interspersed with two gossip videos. The first video was related to someone in the industry, and this person might have a drug deal behind his back, and the location of the incident might have something to do with Pei Kiu...

Trouble.

Yu Lian put these things aside for the time being.

She simply threw Wang Luqing's second video into the group chat.

Do any of you know who this man is?

It was Liu Yuan who gave her the answer.

Zhang Gaoming used to work at Glory World. After that, he jumped ship to broaden his horizons.

Damn it, this was even more troublesome!

Yu Lian finally could not hold it in any longer. She slammed her computer shut and looked at the sky through the window. She then picked up her phone to check the time.

Pei Kiu wasn't there.

That person's life had always been very regular. He got up at six o'clock, casually ate breakfast, and went out at six-thirty. He wasn't around at noon, and came back around four-thirty in the afternoon. He sat on the rattan chair and read today's newspaper.

If he didn't see him at four-thirty in the afternoon, he probably wouldn't come back.

F * ck!

It took Yu Lian a long time to keep the laptop in front of her from flying away. Then, she slowly walked out of the door and went to the kitchen to cook herself a dish, a bowl of rice, and a bowl of soup.

She ate her dinner quietly at the kitchen table, then lay down on the sofa and watched television for a while, until at last she hugged a pillow and leaned back against the sofa, her eyes reflecting a long television series that seemed to reflect nothing at all.

Did Master Pei go to some gentle place again?

No one could tell her the answer.

She was not his, and he was not hers. She had no right to ask anything about him, just like he had no right to ask her.

But she fell in love.

She couldn't help but imagine a girl lying in his Master Pei's arms, kissing someone intimately. What if Pei Kiu's brain was smeared with lard and he got distracted?

No, no, no.

Yu Lian, are you f * cking shaking?

All she could think about was self-torture.

He didn't even think about who could hold him back, Master Pei, so far.

... ""

Yu Lian silently threw away the pillow in her hand. If she continued to think about it, she might even dare to tear down this house.

But she fell in love with him.

She had thrown away her pride and her heart. She didn't know if she could take it back. Even if she could, she didn't know if it would be the same as before.

Love had always been selfish. It made people lose their minds and at the same time, it was repellent.

The image of Wu Yuqian's pure and charming beauty as she smoked her cigar lingered in her mind. She really wanted to smoke a cigarette, but the promise of the past bound her like shackles.

She was like a trapped beast.

So far, she had yet to find a way to break free from the cage.

If she didn't need to look at that person's face, she would be fine. But if she didn't look at that person's face, not only would they not have a beginning, but their future would also be illusory. Pei Kiu was not the kind of man in novels. In novels, as long as you went against him, he would be interested in you and easily fall in love with your pure and kind personality.

If only Pei Kiu was that kind of person.

But if Pei Kiu was that kind of person, it wouldn't be her turn.

Love itself was just a paradox.

Yu Lian was immersed in this paradox and couldn't find her own answer.

In a daze, she heard footsteps.

"Yu Lian?"

She turned around.

Not far away, Pei Kiu was wearing a custom-made black suit jacket, which he draped over his right shoulder, revealing a neat white shirt and a straight necktie.

It was unknown whether it was unruly or abstinent, or whether it was mixed together to form a unique temperament that belonged only to the person in front of him.

Pei Kiu raised his hand to look at the time.

"What are you doing so late at night?"

She was f * cking thinking about you and your little lover!

Yu Lian raised her head and smiled.

"I'm watching a TV show."

"At this time of night?"

"Uh, there's also this time. It's midnight."

She heard a soft sigh.

"Go to sleep."

The man used a commanding tone.
