After saying his last sentence, Su Mu hung up the phone.

"beep……"

Hearing the busy tone from the receiver, Buddha seemed to feel an invisible slap on his face, tearing away the last piece of his cloak of shame.

No!

This should be his method of punishing others.

"Buddha...Buddha, are you alright?" Sihai looked at Buddha cautiously, trying to put his phone away as he spoke, but before he could, his phone rang again.

This time it was a call from the company.

This phone call was like a switch, opening a valve. In just ten minutes, Buddha received five or six calls in quick succession announcing the death of a person.

"Buddha, something terrible has happened! The other party wants to terminate the cooperation on two big deals that our company just finalized without any reason, leaving us no room for maneuver."

"Master, this morning a group of police officers suddenly raided our clubs, shutting down all three of our establishments and taking some people away. Do you think someone is deliberately trying to target us?"

"Master, our most popular male artist has suddenly been exposed to a large number of scandals, and all the contracts we signed have been terminated, resulting in huge losses!"

The above are all minor incidents and not enough to throw the Buddha into disarray. What is truly fatal is that at eight o'clock this morning, as soon as the stock market opened, the stocks of several companies under the Buddha's name plummeted, a truly devastating sight.

It's obvious that there are traders manipulating things behind the scenes.

Su Mu had just called him when all these things happened. If you have to explain it as a coincidence, it's really a far-fetched explanation.

"Use all your connections; I must find out who's behind Su Mu at all costs! Remember, report any progress to me immediately!"

As an old fox, the Buddha, even in his extreme anger, understood that getting angry wouldn't solve the problem; to truly resolve it, he needed to investigate the root cause.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand. I will arrange for someone to do it right away."

Upon hearing this, Sihai nodded repeatedly.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by the Buddha again.

"Wait a moment."

"Your Excellency, is there anything else you require?"

Si Hai stopped and turned to look at Buddha, his whole body trembling with fear.

"I need to contact the best doctors in the country and get my hands and feet reattached as soon as possible." How could a king like him, a prodigy, be without hands and feet?

"Understood, Master, I'll contact them right now."

"Yes, we can now speed up the process of closing the net on the scheme we set up earlier. Remember, we must keep a low profile and not let anyone find out that I did it. Now that that old woman is dead, we can take advantage of this media storm to drag Mo Jingjing into an abyss of no return!"

After explaining his intentions clearly, the Buddha gestured for him to leave.

Now he can finally have some peace and quiet.

...

With the trainee variety show recording finished, Mo Jingjing can take a break for a while. Su Mu isn't too busy lately either, he has two engagements to catch up on, and if his schedule is arranged reasonably and nothing unexpected happens, he can also take a couple of days off to spend some quality time with Mo Jingjing.

After the four of them finished lunch together, Su Mu and Zhang Heng left immediately to attend a work event in another city.

Only Mo Jingjing and Cheng Meng remained in the huge villa. The two of them were working together and enjoying this rare moment of rest, feeling quite content.

Suddenly, a surprised scream shattered this beautiful scene.

"Jingjing, something bad has happened! Come quick! The diva is trending! And she's got you on the trending list with her!" Cheng Meng, like a spectator watching a drama unfold, grabbed her phone and rushed to Mo Jingjing's side.

With some curiosity, Mo Jingjing carefully looked at the gossip on Weibo, and sure enough, she saw her name and the superstar's name appearing one after the other on Weibo's trending topics.

[Shocking! There's more to the story behind the diva's death than meets the eye, and it's actually related to her...]

The diva's suicide was not primarily due to illness, but rather to the trampling of her by younger colleagues!

[Mo Jingjing's career has taken off again, rising rapidly. The powerful backer behind her is gradually emerging. Having stepped over the corpses of her predecessors, what untold secrets lie behind her?]

Three bold, eye-catching headlines immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

These articles, while not all identical, share a common thread: they all discuss Mo Jingjing, searching for dirt on her from various angles to smear her.

They even unfairly pinned the blame for the diva's suicide on her.

"Damn it, are these people all orphans who've gone crazy for money? Making a fortune off dead people like this is completely shattering my worldview and lowering my moral standards!!!"

“Jingjing, tell me who did all this? Someone who hates you so much that they want you to die right now. I’ve been thinking about it, and there are several people who are suspects. I need to call the public relations department right now and have them take preventative measures.”

"The diva has been in the music industry for many years, and many people are her fans. When the news of her death first broke this morning, those fans reacted very strongly. With these people adding fuel to the fire, if they blame everything on you, turn their grief into anger, and retaliate against you by slandering you, that would be terrible!"

As Cheng Meng spoke, she immediately became tense and repeatedly instructed Mo Jingjing: "Jingjing, just in case, before this matter is resolved, do not answer calls from unknown numbers, do not read text messages from unknown numbers, delete them directly, and I will intercept any packages from the security guard."

I really didn't expect her vacation to end so quickly.

Seeing Cheng Meng's busy figure, Mo Jingjing felt that she should do something too, so she went back to her room and took down her laptop.

As soon as she took the computer down, Mo Jingjing received a WeChat message from Su Mu.

Su Mu: "Do you need my help? This is clearly aimed at you."

Mo Jingjing: "Master, don't you think this is a great opportunity to test your disciple?"

After thinking for a moment, Mo Jingjing sent Su Mu another text message: Don't worry, I can handle things for now. I'll contact you immediately if I need anything.

First.

Seeing the two words appear on the screen, Su Mu's lips curled up slightly.

As Cheng Meng had predicted, things unfolded exactly as some online trolls had deliberately manipulated the situation, causing the diva's fans to turn their anger towards Mo Jingjing. Many fans dug up and took screenshots of Mo Jingjing's disrespectful behavior towards her seniors, then posted them along with numerous articles and widely shared them.

Many people also went to Mo Jingjing's Weibo to send her private messages, constantly hurling insults and abuse.

There were also those who cursed her entire family, and even worse, some spent a fortune to buy Mo Jingjing's home address and send her razor blades, dead rats, and the like.
