The marketing accounts' gradual and concentrated revelations not only led to the deceased Grandpa Chi being universally condemned online, but also reversed Chi Baiyi's public image, causing it to deteriorate further. Even Qin Yuanyao was dragged into the controversy and trended on social media.

When Mu Hai saw the situation online, he frantically went to find Chi Baiyi.

"President Chi!" Mu Hai said urgently, "I don't know who is twisting the truth and claiming that Xu Zhiming did everything at the behest of Old Master Chi. The online reputation is very bad now, and even Miss Qin has been implicated."

After reading the situation online, Chi Baiyi's usually sullen face darkened considerably.

It's obvious who's behind these online marketing accounts' exposés.

Xu Zhiming is already in the detention center, yet he's still so restless; he's really making a last-ditch effort.

Chi Baiyi's dark expression wasn't because he hadn't expected Xu Zhiming to have this trick up his sleeve. Rather, it was because his two most important family members had been maliciously slandered.

“Xu Zhiming has already been detained in a detention center, yet these revelations are still appearing online, which means there are still people outside helping him. Investigate who these people are helping Xu Zhiming,” Chi Baiyi said coldly.

"Okay, Mr. Chi." Mu Hai replied and went to check.

Chi Baiyi didn't sit idle either; he went directly to the detention center to find Xu Zhiming.

Xu Zhiming, wearing handcuffs and leg irons, sat opposite Chi Baiyi, looking at Chi Baiyi with a half-smile.

Chi Baiyi pushed her phone in front of Xu Zhiming, showed him the online revelations, and asked, "Did you do this?"

"I've been locked up here, my personal freedom is restricted, how could it be me? Young master, please don't keep accusing me." Xu Zhiming looked very hurt.

"Don't put on an act for me. Who else but you would distort the truth like this? You're quite capable; even though you're locked up, you still have people outside to help you. It seems you've been planning this for a long time," Chi Baiyi said calmly.

"Young Master, what are you saying? I don't understand. Don't wrong me again. These things have nothing to do with me. I'm a victim too," Xu Zhiming said.

Chi Baiyi sneered: "Only now do you think about acting? Afraid of being caught red-handed? Too late."

A cold glint flashed in Xu Zhiming's eyes, but his face was full of confusion.

Chi Baiyi took his phone, opened a recording, and played it.

“...Every time you come over to discuss the Chi Group with the old man, he won't let me near the study. As soon as I enter the study, he stops talking! He treats me like a thief. Is that considered being good to me…”

"...I did give money to those people, but they were the ones who did the bad things, not me. It has nothing to do with me..."

Xu Zhiming's face was filled with astonishment, anger, and terror.

He didn't expect that Chi Baiyi had already been recording since then!

When he saw Chi Baiyi come to see him today, he guessed that Chi Baiyi must have had someone leak the information that everything was done at the behest of Old Master Chi.

Therefore, no matter what Chi Baiyi said to him, he pretended to be wronged, just to avoid being caught red-handed if Chi Baiyi recorded or filmed him.

He had already thought it through. As long as he found someone to reveal that everything was done at the behest of Master Chi, even if the police issued a statement saying that he was the one who did it, people would still be skeptical.

Since Mr. Chi has passed away, there is no way to verify the facts. Even if the police can prove that he did it, they cannot prove that Mr. Chi did not instruct him.

Moreover, his previous revelations had already created a preconceived notion among the public, and the police announcement could not completely dispel people's suspicions about Mr. Chi.

However, with the recording in Chi Baiyi's possession, everything changed.

His perfect plan was destroyed by the recording in Chi Baiyi's possession.

"This recording was already published online the moment I spoke to you. I know what you're planning. You think that since Grandpa is dead, there's no way to verify anything, but you're too naive." Chi Baiyi's cold gaze was filled with contempt for him.

"Is this what you mean by being capable and outstanding? You're almost seventy years old, yet you can't beat me, who's nearly four cycles younger than you. You may be incompetent, but you're quite confident," Chi Baiyi mocked.

Chi Baiyi knew what Xu Zhiming cared about most, and he deliberately stepped on Xu Zhiming's sore spots with every word he said.

Xu Zhiming was indeed provoked by his words.

Xu Zhiming always believed that he was very capable and that his talents were not being recognized. If the Chi family hadn't only wanted him to be a servant, he would definitely have been able to make a name for himself in the business world.

However, what he was most proud of, what he cared about most, was thrown to the ground and trampled on by Chi Baiyi like a rag.

"Chi Baiyi!!" Xu Zhiming's eyes were bloodshot, bulging with rage.

He roared and jumped up, intending to hit Chi Baiyi.

However, as soon as he stood up, the guards standing outside the door heard the commotion and quickly came in, subdued him, and forced him to lie face down on the table.

"Chi Baiyi!! You bastard!! You'll die a horrible death!! You'll get your retribution!! You'll go to hell!! You'll be burned alive!!"

Xu Zhiming, who was pinned to the table, was still roaring furiously.

Chi Baiyi looked at him indifferently, as if he were an ant.

His eyelids twitched slightly only when he heard "you will be burned alive".

Then, he stood up and looked down at Xu Zhiming, who was being pressed down on the table.

"Whether I go to hell or not is none of your concern, but I'm pretty sure that after all the bad things you've done, you're not far from going to hell."

After finishing speaking, Chi Baiyi walked away with an imposing air.

Meanwhile, netizens were shocked when they saw the audio and explanation released by the official Weibo account of the Chi Group.

[Holy crap! So it was all done by Old Master Chi's head butler?!]

[My God, this is a real-life version of The Farmer and the Snake! Is this some kind of bullying tactic because Grandpa Chi is dead and can't defend himself, so they're just blaming everything on him?]

[I knew it! How could someone as kind as Grandpa Chi do such a thing! His kindness and open-mindedness during the live stream didn't seem like an act at all.]

[This person is truly ungrateful! If you don't want to be a butler and feel that being a butler is inferior, you can resign yourself, and I don't think the Chi family will stop you. But you despise the butler's position, yet you still refuse to leave the Chi family, and now you're even blaming everything on the deceased Old Master Chi.]

Fortunately, Old Master Chi passed away early. If he had known that his head butler treated him this way, he would probably have been furious to death.

[In the transfer screenshots posted by the official Weibo account, this person was transferring tens of thousands of yuan at a time. The fact that he could transfer so much money to strangers means he definitely has even more money on hand. Doesn't he realize that if it weren't for the Chi family, where would he get so much money?]
