C23 A Thief in Another's Hand

In the City Z, Qiao Mingyu's mansion.

After Qiao Mingyu finished answering the phone on the balcony, he looked at the dark night outside the house for a while before walking into the house.

Lin Qian was reading documents on the sofa in the living room. When she heard the noise, she asked without looking up, "Are you done?"

Qiao Mingyu nodded. He stared at Lin Qian's head and hesitated for a while. He still clicked on the newly downloaded video on his phone and handed it to Lin Qian. He asked, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

In the video, there was a group of people surrounding the pond and discussing something. Suddenly, a girl was pushed into the water.

Lin Qian took some time to glance at it. She recognized the girl who fell into the water. "Zhou Yitong? Isn't that your scandal girlfriend? What happened to her?"

Qiao Mingyu had recently been having a scandal with Zhou Yitong. Lin Qian had known about this from the start and she had agreed to it.

"She is currently being slandered and requested to withdraw from the Harem production crew by netizens. If the situation continues to develop like this, Her acting career might stop here. "

Qiao Mingyu observed Lin Qian's reaction as he spoke, hoping to see some clues on her face.

"That would be terrible. Did she offend someone recently?" Lin Qian said casually. From her tone to her expression, there was not a single flaw.

Of course, Qiao Mingyu knew that there was no such thing as slander in the entertainment industry.

With regards to Zhou Yitong's matter, even Zhou Yitong herself thought that it was because she offended Bai Nianxi that Bai Nianxi deliberately used it to take revenge on her.

But for some reason, Qiao Mingyu felt that this matter had something to do with Lin Qian.

He remembered that Lin Qian had once said that she wanted to use someone else's knife to kill Bai Nianxi. Could Zhou Yitong be the "knife" that she had chosen?

Qiao Mingyu recalled Zhou Yitong's tone on the phone just now. Her hatred towards Bai Nianxi had almost reached its limit. As long as someone pushed her a little more from the outside, she might really go and fight Bai Nianxi to the death.

Seeing that Qiao Mingyu did not speak for a long time, Lin Qian looked up from the documents and stared at him and asked, "Was Zhou Yitong the one who called you just now? Did she cry to you? Did your heart ache? "

The questions that came out of Lin Qian's mouth were all filled with jealousy.

Qiao Mingyu helplessly sighed and bent over to kiss her on the head. "You know, Zhou Yitong is only used for outsiders to see. You have always been the only person in my heart. I will never betray you. But. . . "

Qiao Mingyu hesitated and continued," Zhou Yitong is innocent. And from a certain point of view, she even helped us. So I want you to promise me that no matter what plans you have in the future, don't involve her in it. "

Facing Zhou Yitong, it always reminded him of Lin Xi.

At that time, he promised to help Lin Qian take revenge for her father. So he deliberately approached Lin Xi to let her marry him. But he did this for the sake of the Lin's's shares. From beginning to end, he never thought of hurting Lin Xi. After all, Lin Qian's father's grudge was from the previous generation. And the grudge from the previous generation should not involve Lin Xi who was not even born at that time.

But due to an accident, in the end, something irreparable still happened. He did not want the tragedy to happen again.

"I know, I'll listen to you" Lin Qian smiled obediently and also raised her head to kiss Qiao Mingyu. "You have been tired for the whole day. Go and rest early. I will go and accompany you soon after I finish dealing with these documents. "

After getting Lin Qian's assurance, Qiao Mingyu was slightly relieved in his heart. He said to her, "Okay, don't be too late. "

Lin Qian nodded and smiled as she watched him enter the bedroom. Then she took out a newspaper from under the coffee table.

The first page of the newspaper was surprisingly the photo of Qiao Mingyu and Zhou Yitong, which almost occupied the entire page. In the photo, Zhou Yitong was smiling and kissing Qiao Mingyu on the face.

Lin Qian only took a glance and kneaded the entire newspaper into a ball, then sneered and threw it into the rubbish bin at the side.

At this time, in City Y, which was more than 300 kilometers away from City Z, Lin Xi did not sleep at night and was stunned by what she just found.

In order to give her justice, Lin Xi took advantage of the fact that the crew had stopped working and started to search online. Where did the video of Zhou Yitong fake diving come from?

If she could find the person who uploaded the video first, it would be much easier for her to continue investigating.

With the help of a few assistants, Lin Xi really found the person who uploaded the video first among the many accounts.

It was actually the account that the Windstar Entertainment used to slander Qiao Mingyu after she exposed Qiao Mingyu to the Windstar Entertainment last time!

She could recognize this account with a single glance. Then, she ignored the fact that it was late at night and directly called the boss of the Windstar, Liao Feng.

The man quickly answered the phone. "It's you? What? What are you going to expose this time?"

Liao Feng's lazy voice came from the phone. He clearly recognized Lin Xi's phone number.

Lin Xi did not beat around the bush and directly asked, "Was the video of Zhou Yitong fake diving and bullying the same actor sent by you the first time? How did you get the video?"

That video was shot at a close distance using the phone. It was only possible that the crew took the video first and then sent it to the media.

"So it's about Zhou Yitong. Are you her friend? Or are you Zhou Yitong?" The other side asked.

But Liao Feng did not seem to want Lin Xi to answer this question. Very quickly. He continued, "It's not easy for you to investigate me. Then I'll tell you, someone paid to discredit her. I'm just using money to do things. Besides, I'm not the only one who takes money to do things. You should let her not hate me so much. "

Lin Xi asked again," Then who is the person who paid to discredit her? "

Liao Feng sighed twice and then said," It does not seem to be good for you to ask me directly like this. After all, I am a person with professional ethics. "

Lin Xi interrupted him and said, "I can give you money. You just need to tell me who that person is. "

In her previous life, her career in the entertainment industry allowed her to see through Liao Feng's tricks at first glance. When an unjust person suddenly spoke to you about morality, he was most likely asking for a price.

"You are not really Zhou Yitong, right?" Liao Feng asked again, his tone becoming serious.

When the person on the other side asked him to expose Qiao Mingyu for the first time, he had checked the phone number of that person, but he could not find out who the owner of the phone was.

Lin Xi said, "You don't need to care who I am. You just need to tell me. Do you want to tell me who that person is? How much do you want to charge? "

"Okay!" Liao Feng answered very straightforwardly this time, "I like people as straightforward as you. One million yuan. Transfer it to me first, and I will tell you what you want to know. "

After saying that, he seemed to be afraid that Lin Xi would think that one million yuan was too expensive. Liao Feng explained again, "I sold the client's information to you and took a huge risk. If the client finds out about this, it will affect my business in the future. "

Lin Xi was a little hesitant. She did not have that much money now, but she had an unlimited black card that Qin Yu had given her.

She thought for a moment and decided to borrow Qin Yu's money first. After she got the payment for Harem, she would return the money to him.

So she asked Liao Feng for the bank account and said, "I'll transfer it to you now. "

She wanted Liao Feng's personal account. Because there was a transfer record, she was not afraid that he would go back on his word after receiving the money.

Very quickly, Lin Xi transferred the one million to Liao Feng.

Liao Feng saw the notification and clicked on the text. He suddenly realized that the person who transferred the money to him was Qin Yu's account! He almost thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him. He even checked it twice.

Perhaps there was more than one person in this world called Qin Yu. But what if he was the most famous person in City Z?

Liao Feng originally wanted to play some tricks on Lin Xi, but now that he saw Qin Yu's name, he did not dare. After confirming that the million yuan had been transferred to his account, he sent a phone number and a bank account to Lin Xi.

He said, "At that time, I contacted this number. The payment was transferred to me through the account below. "

Lin Xi quickly understood what he meant. "You don't know who that person is?"

Liao Feng could only say, "You also cooperated with me, but I don't know who you are either. "

He even suspected that Lin Xi's voice might also be fake. She might be a man, and then she used a voice changing software or something.

Thinking of this, Liao Feng could not help but shiver. "Alright, good luck. Find out who that person is as soon as possible. Bye ~"

After saying that, he quickly hung up the phone, leaving Lin Xi alone facing the two numbers in front of her. She was deeply distressed.

The phone number Liao Feng sent was anonymous. She could not find out who it was. As for the bank transfer account, it was not easy to find the information in the bank. The first thing she thought of was to ask Qin Yu for help, but she quickly rejected this idea.

Ever since she joined the crew, Qin Yu had never contacted her. It was as if he was deliberately drawing a line with her.

When she thought of this, Lin Xi felt inexplicably irritated. She warned herself in her heart that she and Qin Yu had a fake relationship to begin with. She could not take it seriously, nor could she rely too much on him.

However, she could not think of any other way at the moment. She could only go to sleep first and make plans the next day.
