199: House collapsed!

"Since your friend is here, you two chat. I'll be leaving now." Xia Ruoyun looked like a good girl and turned to leave directly.

Su Yue didn't try to keep her; he still had some things he wanted to tell his colleagues.

Seeing Xia Ruoyun turn and leave like that, everyone looked at Su Yue with eyes full of resentment.

"Why didn't you keep her for a little longer? This was a chance to spend time with a celebrity! I couldn't even beg for such an opportunity!"

"Su Ge, I think something is off about that female celebrity. Is she interested in you?"

Everyone was laughing and teasing, and while they were very envious, not a single person was jealous.

Su Yue was already a capable and skilled person, so wasn't it normal for him to attract the attention of women?

Forget about celebrities, even their President Lan had different feelings for Su Yue.

Thinking of this, Li Haoyang leaned over somewhat gossiping and asked in a low voice.

"What do you think about this?"

"I think our President Lan is pretty good, but this celebrity isn't bad either."

He even put himself in Su Yue's shoes, troubled and unsure how to choose.

"Alright, don't think so much about it. I still need your help with work matters. I'll come back after I recover from my illness during this period."

Su Yue didn't consider all these unnecessary things; he just wanted to focus on his career.

There were simply too many beautiful women around him, so many that he couldn't even consider them all.

Zhang Chi, on the other hand, was in complete chaos. He found his agent and demanded that he quickly resolve the issue for him.

"Quickly find a public relations team and suppress all this information about me!"

He no longer wanted to maintain his persona; at this moment, he was like a furious dog, roaring in front of everyone.

Meanwhile, the makeup artist hid far away, unable to resist liking the Weibo post that exposed the news. What did they call 'dreams coming true'? Wasn't this exactly that?

The makeup artist's actions didn't catch Zhang Chi's attention. At this moment, he was already struggling to handle his own situation; how could he have the mood to care about others?

"This is really hard to do. They have sufficient evidence, and it seems there are still some things that are not suitable for posting online that haven't been disclosed. If we try to suppress these trending topics, it will only provoke them further. I believe, given their methods, all the evidence has already been handed over to Police."

The agent was also very helpless. As a gold-medal agent, he had dealt with countless tricky situations, but he had never encountered anything so difficult to handle. He even regretted taking on Zhang Chi; this person had added a stain to his resume.

Clearly, the person's persona was initially maintained very well. Nobody expected him to do such disgusting things behind the scenes.

"When I first took you on, I also asked you if you had any records of illegal activities or crimes, but you said you had never done anything bad. Aren't you deliberately concealing information?"

His expression was also very ugly. Thinking that this guy had concealed information, his mood became extremely angry.

He also blamed himself for being too trusting and arrogant back then; otherwise, if he had investigated, he wouldn't be in such a difficult situation now, completely in the dark.

"I hope you must help me! Only you can help me!" Zhang Chi plopped down and knelt before his agent. He was quite arrogant towards others, but he had always given this agent a lot of face.

Because he knew this was the only person who could save his life.

"I'm just an ordinary agent, not some immortal. If you committed a crime, someone will naturally come to deal with you."

"I think Police should be here soon too," the agent said casually, glancing at his watch.

Sure enough, the moment the words fell, the agent saw a group of people rush in.

They were fully armed and looked very fierce.

"Zhang Chi, right? You are suspected of committing a crime. Please come with us!"

The one leading them was a woman so beautiful it seemed unreal. If Su Yue were there, he would definitely know that this person was Liang Yuzhu.

She glanced at Zhang Chi, who was kneeling on the ground, and immediately guessed what he was doing. She couldn't help but look at him with a hint of disdain.

They say a man's knees are worth gold; this person kneels down at the drop of a hat. Just by looking at him, you know he's not a good person.

Zhang Chi hadn't even reacted before he was forcefully grabbed and taken away. His heart was collapsing; he struggled, trying to do something, but he couldn't break free from Police Officer's restraint.

The moment his hands were cuffed, Zhang Chi was filled with despair. He knew everything was over.

His glorious years, his wonderful career, everything, just ended like this.

He hated that mysterious person even more, but when he wanted to viciously curse the person, he suddenly remembered that he didn't even know the person's name.

The agent glanced at Police Officer and felt certain in his heart that this valiant female Police Officer was no ordinary person.

So he stepped forward seriously and said, "This matter is troublesome for you. I hope you can handle it seriously. He has committed so many crimes, he should be sentenced to death."

Even Liang Yuzhu couldn't help but look up at the agent. What he said was extremely righteous, making it seem like he hated Zhang Chi immensely to those who didn't know the situation.

Zhang Chi was taken away, and his screams echoed all the way.

At the hospital, Xia Ruoyun's face also became serious after learning about this matter.

She certainly knew that this guy Zhang Chi had offended Yuan, and she didn't know what the person had done afterward to make Yuan directly take action and 'kill' him.

With this evidence in hand, this person couldn't avoid death.

Xia Ruoyun's admiration for Yuan grew even stronger, and she even dreamed of this mysterious person every night.

For some reason, in Xia Ruoyun's heart, Su Yue's appearance could always overlap with Yuan's.

Didn't that feeling of powerful enemies turning to ash in casual conversation come from Su Yue?

Xia Ruoyun was conflicted, wanting to enter Su Yue's hospital room and talk to him about this matter, but she didn't know how to start.

If he was indeed Yuan, wouldn't her probing seem like a clown's act?

If he wasn't, he might not be interested in hearing these things.

Just as Xia Ruoyun was standing at the hospital room door, feeling extremely conflicted, the doctors and nurses passing by the door were also discussing Zhang Chi's matter.

"Oh my god, my idol has fallen!! Zhang Chi is actually such a person! I can't believe I liked him for five whole years!"

"Exactly! I always thought he was a gentle and kind young master, with that feeling of 'a gentleman is like jade on the path, unparalleled in the world,' but I never expected him to be such a person?"

"I heard them say that the information online is fake and was created by his rival, Liu Jiechu. They are both the same type of celebrity, so they might be stirring up trouble behind the scenes."

Everyone walked and chatted, arguing endlessly about these matters.

"Don't keep struggling with words here. Did you not see whose account posted the exposé?"

The doctor pushed up his glasses, "This person is the highly acclaimed 'King of News'!"

When the nurses heard this, they couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course we know, we just feel a little surprised. We never expected him to be such a person!"

After hearing what they said, Xia Ruoyun silently rubbed her forehead. She really hadn't expected Zhang Chi to have so many fans, and no wonder he dared to be so arrogant and troublesome towards Yuan.

Just then, the door to Su Yue's room suddenly opened with a click.

He saw Xia Ruoyun standing in a daze not far away and couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her.

"What are you spacing out for?" Su Yue smiled. "I heard your entertainment industry has been quite turbulent recently."

As soon as Xia Ruoyun heard Su Yue voluntarily bring up the matter, she immediately became excited and quickly leaned in front of him to talk about these entertainment gossip news.

At the same time, her suspicion between Su Yue and Yuan lessened a bit.

If Su Yue and Yuan were truly the same person, then why would he choose to discuss these issues with her?

Meanwhile, Zhang Chi's rival, Liu Jiechu, sat in his large villa with an ashen face.

His expression was very grim, and he didn't know how he should face these messy affairs.

"Sister Zhang, Zhang Chi is completely finished this time. Do you think that person will target me?"

"Zhang Chi and I are the same type. If he targets me..."

Liu Jiechu had a lot of dirt on him behind the scenes, so there was no way he could clear his name.

Unlike Zhang Chi, his agent knew about his actions and had dealt with a lot of his messes.

"For now, don't act rashly. Reduce your public appearances so that everyone doesn't notice you."

The agent analyzed the situation very calmly, and a malicious idea formed in her heart.

"How about we use this opportunity to release all the dirt on your rivals? By the time this wave of trouble passes, you'll be reaping the benefits."

When Liu Jiechu heard this, his fear vanished without a trace, and he became excited.

"That's great! This is like getting a bonus! But do you really have that much dirt?"

If they had that much dirt, wouldn't they have already been able to turn the entire entertainment industry upside down?

The agent smiled, "Does it have to be real? Anyway, these pieces of information are mixed in; it's hard to tell what's true and what's false. We can also use the identity of this mysterious person to make people mistakenly believe that our alternate account belongs to this mysterious person."

Liu Jiechu became completely excited. He knew this agent was simply amazing!

The agent he followed was indeed capable. In just a few moves, she could turn the current crisis into an opportunity.

"You must remember, don't do anything during this time."

Once the agent had a plan, she immediately started working on it without any delay.

Liu Jiechu naturally wouldn't say anything more; after all, it was for his own good. He was going to enjoy the benefits.

Liu Jiechu's agent was working on the plan, while on the other side, Su Yue also followed Xia Ruoyun to a newly opened Japanese restaurant.

"This Japanese restaurant is quite famous! Although I don't particularly like that place, I have to say the ingredients here are incredibly fresh!"

Xia Ruoyun had come with friends a few days ago. The ingredients here weren't expensive, in fact, they were even below market price, and most importantly, they were exceptionally fresh, so there were many people queuing.

"I found someone to queue for us. Scalper tickets cost several hundred yuan each! Now we can just go straight in and eat."

People like Xia Ruoyun weren't short on money, so they didn't care about it at all. If someone could help queue, spending a few hundred yuan was nothing. With her status, queuing for a long time here would only attract others' attention.

Su Yue was also impressed by her connections. He followed Xia Ruoyun into the restaurant. The decor was quite luxurious, clearly a lot of effort had been put into it, and it even felt like they were eating sashimi in Japan.

"We'll have these," Xia Ruoyun ordered decisively.

"Your seafood should all be fresh, right? I hope the quality of this meal isn't worse than the last time."

Xia Ruoyun said this while handing the menu to Su Yue. Although Su Yue kept saying he wouldn't order, he still had to look it over.

Su Yue didn't stand on ceremony and took the menu to look at it.

The market price here was indeed much cheaper than outside.

In a Japanese restaurant of the same level, a serving of salmon sashimi would cost several hundred yuan.

But here, it was only a little over a hundred?

Since Xia Ruoyun recommended it so highly, it meant their ingredients should be good, at least they wouldn't use rainbow trout to pretend it was salmon.

The waiter smiled, "Please rest assured, our ingredients here are absolutely fresh and safe."

Within a few minutes, the raw seafood dishes they ordered were served.

Su Yue looked at the thick-cut salmon, feeling a bit shocked. The texture was indeed quite good, much better than he had imagined.

Many salmon dishes costing several hundred yuan couldn't compare!

"I heard this restaurant is a national chain. They popped up everywhere like mushrooms after rain."

"I also find it strange. Is the market price of salmon originally this low, or are they having a promotional event?"

Su Yue ate thoughtfully, his mind wandering, having already guessed some general things.

The specific judgment would still need to be based on the information provided by the System.

"Besides all kinds of premium seafood here, there's also authentic Japanese Wagyu. I heard this beef has an amazing texture and sells for a high price even in Japan!"

"Other restaurants import it directly from Japan and the price is several times higher, but here it's only doubled, so I specifically ordered a portion. Let's try it together."

Xia Ruoyun said excitedly. Due to her work, she had never been to Japan, but she was quite knowledgeable about the food there.
