"Is this trying to screw me over completely?"
This sentence burst from his trembling jaw.
Zhang Jingshan, with trembling hands, began shredding those documents.
Then, as if he thought of something.
He picked up Yiyi's phone, opened WeChat, and as he expected, there wasn't much out of the ordinary.
Immediately after, he directly logged into Yiyi's WeChat on the computer.
He didn't know if the other party hadn't had time to delete the synced records on the computer or what.
A black profile picture appeared in Zhang Jingshan's line of sight.
Zhang Jingshan clicked it open to look.
[Baby, make time to come to my place. I haven't tasted you in half a month, I miss you very much! Also, hurry up and record videos to threaten Zhang Jingshan, make him find his Grandpa to pull strings and get my brother out. Stop playing tricks and trying to push it off on me, or don't blame me for leaking those unspeakable videos and photos of yours, letting the whole world see just how debauched, dirty, and promiscuous the top beauty live streamer was in her early years!]
Seeing this WeChat record that hadn't been deleted yet.
Zhang Jingshan's hair stood on end instantly.
So the little vixen who was incredibly pure in his eyes was secretly sleeping with someone else behind his back? And in her early years, she was the type who would sleep with anyone?
But none of this was the most important. The most important thing was that the other party was planning to use these videos to threaten him? And even drag his Grandpa, who had retired many years ago, into it?
I'll screw your immortal ancestors!
Clack-
Zhang Jingshan closed the laptop.
Holding the laptop in one hand, he took out his phone with the other and started dialing.
He turned and strode out!
....
"Darling, go take a shower quickly!"
Yiyi walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
After calling out, there was no response.
"Could he have fallen asleep?"
She muttered to herself.
Yiyi returned to the bedroom.
But where was there any trace of Zhang Jingshan?
What met her eyes was the pried-open socket, and the laptop that had been taken away!
Seeing this scene.
Yiyi instantly fell into infinite terror.
Her face, which was rosy after bathing just a moment ago, suddenly turned ashen!
Because she knew too well what the scene before her meant.
In a panic that made her almost unable to stand, she picked up her phone and dialed Zhang Jingshan's number.
It was rejected and hung up!
Call again!
Rejected again…
"Darling, please listen to my explanation, okay? Please answer the phone, please…"
However.
Before she could send out the message she had drafted.
The door, which Zhang Jingshan had not closed when he left, slammed shut with a bang.
Several men rushed in.
Seeing the uninvited guests pouring in.
Yiyi immediately slumped to the ground.
No matter how naive she was, she knew these must be the people Zhang Jingshan had sent.
An hour later.
In a suite at a certain hotel.
"Speak!" Zhang Jingshan answered the phone.
"President Zhang, she said those videos haven't been sent to anyone, and there are no backups. They're all on the computer. From the way she looks, she shouldn't be lying!"
The expressionless Zhang Jingshan asked again, "What's the background of the one with the WeChat nickname 'Wanderer'? Did she confess?"
"He was her boyfriend when she was in her teens, named Lin He. He filmed a lot of videos of her in the early years. She said she was young and naive back then and was brainwashed by Lin He into doing all sorts of outrageous things. After they broke up, they had no contact until she started being a live streamer, and then Lin He contacted her!" the other party said.
Little did they know that Young Master Zhang almost couldn't resist kicking the wall!
The so-called pure maiden he favored and doted on was actually this kind of person?
When he didn't see the 'fall of red' the first time, he actually believed her story about breaking it while riding a bicycle as a child?
"Continue!" Suppressing his anger, Zhang Jingshan said.
"President Zhang, Lin He's brother was a courier for drug dealers and was sentenced to ten years. This is his third year. And that Lin He, not only is he a drug-addicted scumbag, but he's also keen on extortion and blackmail. In his early years, he often pulled off 'fairy jumps' [honey traps]!" the other party said.
"President Zhang, I'm sorry, please let me go. I was forced by that bastard Lin He, he forced me, I didn't want this!"
From Zhang Jingshan's phone came the hysterical pleading and crying of the live streamer Yiyi.
"President Zhang, how should we handle it? You give the orders, and we brothers will follow!" the other party said.
Clack-
In the hotel room.
Zhang Jingshan lit a cigarette with a 'clack'.
He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then said, "Catch that scumbag named Lin He, teach him a lesson, and then let the police get involved. Ask Lin Yiyi if she's willing to come forward and testify against that scumbag. If she is, then this is where it ends. If she isn't, tell her that I, Zhang Jingshan, will stop at nothing to make her wish she were dead!"
"Yes, President Zhang!"
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Zhang Jingshan looked down at the dazzling prosperity reflected by the colorful neon lights below.
First, a wave of self-mockery, then a wave of solemnity.
"Mr. Ye, can you really tell fortunes?"
He muttered to himself, then whispered again, "No matter what, I owe a huge favor for this!"
Zhang Jingshan had to admit.
If it hadn't been for Ye Chen's fortune-telling reminder about his 'yin tang' [the space between the eyebrows] looking off.
He absolutely wouldn't have become suspicious, much less discovered the secret existence of the pinhole camera.
If that had happened, and Lin Yiyi had used those videos to threaten him, or if she had sent those videos to Lin He, the consequences would have been truly unimaginable. He didn't dare to imagine what would have awaited him!
Yield? Ask the Old Master to step forward and get a drug dealer out? Not to mention if he could even bring himself to say it, even if he did, the Old Master would never risk his reputation in his later years to save a drug dealer!
If he didn't yield, once the other party leaked those maliciously produced videos online, not only would Zhang Jingshan's life be completely ruined, but the Old Zhang Family would probably be dragged down with him!
Zhang Jingshan felt more and more scared the more he thought about it!
...
The night passed without incident.
In the cheap rental house.
Ye Chen slept soundly until broad daylight.
He had no idea that Zhang Jingshan had gone through a terrifying night.
He was even less aware that Zhang Jingshan had overcome that tribulation!
After hastily eating a few pieces of bread and finishing the cleaning inside and outside the house.
Only then did Ye Chen leave with the two hundred thousand yuan in cash.
Braving the scorching sun overhead, he first went to the bank to close his previous accounts, and then opened a new card.
Looking at the bulging kraft paper bag, the bank staff thought this guy would deposit the money after opening the card.
Who would have thought that as soon as the card was opened, he immediately turned around and left, not even putting a hundred yuan in it.
Before Ye Chen, who had just walked out of the bank, could hail a taxi.
The phone in his pocket rang.
Looking at the caller ID, Ye Chen was slightly surprised.
After all, he wouldn't have expected Zhang Jingshan to resolve the tribulation he mentioned so quickly.
"President Zhang, is something wrong?"
"Mr. Ye, where are you?" Zhang Jingshan asked with a smile.
"I just went to the bank to open a card, and now I'm about to leave. Why?"
"Which bank?" Zhang Jingshan pressed.
"Industrial and Commercial Bank on Haibin Road. No, is something wrong? Is it about that string of prayer beads causing trouble? If you feel you were ripped off, keep it, and I'll go exchange it with you in a couple of days!" Ye Chen said.
"No, no, Mr. Ye, you've misunderstood! Uh, Industrial and Commercial Bank on Haibin Road, right? Wait for me, I'll be there very soon! Wait for me!"
From the other end of the phone came Zhang Jingshan's hurried and flustered movements, as if he had even tripped over a trash can.
Leaving Ye Chen completely bewildered and confused.
