Shen Jiezhu once thought that a person who could bear the title of Madam must be a graceful, elegant and intellectual woman.
As it turned out, she was right.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Shen Jiezhu and the lady met in another luxurious room on the top floor of the hospital. When she entered the room, the lady was drinking coffee. The huge diamond on the hand holding the cup symbolized her status.
"Hello, Miss Shen."
Seeing her come in, the lady stood up and greeted her gracefully. She was wearing a slim black fishtail skirt that perfectly wrapped her exquisite figure.
She looks very young.
"Hello." Shen Jiezhu smiled and greeted her. She grew up in the mountains and never knew what stage fright was. She had lived in the same room with poisonous snakes and wild beasts, and had also been close to the messenger of the underworld. Now, in her eyes, this lady was just a woman in luxurious clothes.
The other party was a little surprised to see Shen Jiezhu's graceful and elegant demeanor, and even looked at her carefully several times.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Jiang Xiuhui. I am the general manager of Changkun Group and the wife of Park Zhizhen."
It was indeed her.
It seems that my guess was quite accurate?
Shen Jiezhu chuckled in her heart. Now, she seemed to understand the purpose of the pearl necklace.
"Hello, I'm Shen Jiezhu."
"Everyone knows the name of Miss Shen now. I see on the Internet now that everyone is saying that Miss Shen's metaphysical skills are particularly strong. She caught the murderer of Jin Chanxing and pointed out the antique jade buried in the soil of Busandong. People around me are saying that there is nothing in this world that you don't know."
Jiang Xiuhui speaks in a soft voice, quite gentle like a Jiangnan woman, but her words are sharp and contain hidden meanings.
With just these words, a big tall hat was put on Shen Jiezhu's head.
Shen Jiezhu took off her hat with a smile and threw it back to Jiang Xiuhui.
Don't flatter me, I'm not interested in your opinion.
"Hahaha, you are all just flattering me. I just happened to encounter Jin Canxing's matter, so it can be considered fate. Madam, you should also know that we metaphysicians value fate the most."
Sister Shen handed over a small hat.
If she said she didn't know, then they would have nothing to talk about next, after all, "no fate" cannot be forced; if she knew, then it would be equivalent to admitting that Kim Chan-byul was a destined thing, and this was Park Ji-jin's own disaster, and he could not blame anyone else.
Anyway, no matter how Jiang Xiuhui answers, Shen Jiezhu will be the one leading the game.
Jiang Xiuhui also realized this problem. Her expression stiffened slightly, then softened very quickly and she nodded generously.
"I really didn't believe in fate before, but now I do. The fact that Miss Shen and I can sit here and drink coffee together is fate, isn't it?"
OK, another compliment.
This time Shen Jiezhu accepted it easily: "Yes, we are destined to be together."
With 3.1 million US dollars spent, it becomes a destiny even if you have no destiny.
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. Even in the underworld, money can get things done, let alone in society.
So is that why she's so confident?
"Since we are destined to meet, I will speak frankly. I saw Ms. Shen stirring up the emotions of netizens on Instagram not long ago for the Golden Star Team."
"Hey, that's not right." Shen Jiezhu interrupted her.
What is incitement? Is it incitement to act as if you are some evil leader and demand innocence and justice for the deceased?
The police station is as dead as ever. Apart from the previous interrogation, there has been no movement. It seems that she was released directly after the interrogation. In this case, if she doesn't speak out, who will remember this incident in two days?
"I just hope the police department can conduct a fair trial. This is an expression of my true feelings. How can it be called incitement? I am not calling on the majority of netizens to stand with me. I am just... expressing my own opinion!"
Shen Jiezhu retorted without any hesitation.
Jiang Xiuhui was silent for a long time, seemingly thinking about whether to drop the topic.
In fact, the two people have already had a big disagreement on the situation after talking for so long. Jiang Xiuhui's implicit accusation that Shen Jiezhu stirred up public anger was her means of attack.
She originally thought that the money and pressure she gave would make Shen Jiezhu bow her head and show weakness, but she did not expect that she would launch a more sharp counterattack.
Gains do not compensate for losses.
A bit anxious...
Jiang Xiuhui sighed in her heart, regretting her impatience just now. She didn't want this to happen. If Park Zhizhen hadn't transferred all the assets to his name, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation now.
Seeing that the other party stopped talking, Shen Jiezhu chose to take the initiative.
"I think Madam, you came to me today because you want me to stop pursuing the matter of Jin Canxing. After all, her parents are dead, and all her relatives have taken the money. As long as I don't mention it, the public won't mention it either."
"Ms. Shen, I'll be honest. Even if you pursue this, he won't be sentenced to more than a few years. Why don't you both compromise? If Ms. Shen wants to enter the entertainment industry, she should need financial support!"
Hearing this, Sister Shen frowned and asked, "Do I need it?"
Jiang Xiuhui: ...
This Shen Jiezhu doesn't play by the rules at all. How can we continue this conversation?
"Madam, I have a question in my mind and would like to ask you for advice. May I ask?"
"Please go ahead."
“Do you love Park Sik Jin very much?”
Jiang Xiuhui's face immediately turned ugly. Shen Jiezhu saw the flash of disgust in her eyes from her tightly locked brows. It can be seen that, let alone love, she is afraid that she feels disgusted when she hears this name.
Shen Jiezhu clearly remembered how arrogant Park Zhizhen was in front of her before. He said that he had transferred all the assets to his own name, so with the support of the capital, the police station could not do anything to him.
Kang Soo-hye hated Park Sik-jin so much, but she still had to come to me to beg for mercy. This might be the reason.
She was sidelined...
If that were the case, things would be much easier.
Shen Jiezhu suddenly felt very happy. She sighed deeply and drew Jiang Xiuhui's attention back.
"Park Shik-jin cheated on you in China, and in order to prevent you from finding out, he cruelly killed his lover who had been with him for three years, and then continued to stay by your side as if nothing had happened..."
"Madam, have you ever thought about what he will do to you when you lose your value one day?"
Jiang Xiuhui pursed her lips and said nothing.
He knew that now was the best time to get Park Ji-jin out of the house, but with the capital behind him, this murder case was not enough to shake his position...
The harder we suppress him now, the more powerful his counterattack will be after he gets out of prison.
The top priority is to stabilize the company.
"Madam, have you never thought about taking back the lost rights?" Shen Jiezhu took a sip of coffee and continued.
"From your facial features, you must have been in a car accident before, and you were seriously injured. You were in a coma for a long time and almost became a vegetable. A vegetative person cannot own company shares. I guess that was when Park Shik-jin transferred all your assets."
"Yes, you are right."
"Since he can treat you this way, why can't you treat him the same way? This incident with Jin Canxing is the best opportunity!"
Jiang Xiuhui suddenly became interested and asked following Shen Jiezhu's words.
"What do you mean?"
"A fixed-term imprisonment certainly can't deprive him of his rights, but...what about a life sentence? Will the shareholders of the company still support a person who can't get out of prison for the rest of his life?"
Jiang Xiuhui gritted her teeth and said, "Jin Chanxing cannot be sentenced to life imprisonment for this matter."
Shen Jiezhu smiled meaningfully: "How do you know that this is the only thing that happened to him? Madam, go and see Factory No. 3. The fire four years ago killed nine people."
Having said that, anyone who still doesn't understand is a fool. Jiang Xiuhui finally said thank you sincerely, and Shen Jiezhu also responded sincerely.
The two people's eyes collided in mid-air, and cooperation was achieved.
After coming out of the room, Shen Jiezhu suddenly felt refreshed. When she returned to the ward, Xiaomi was already waiting for her.
Kwon Ji-yong was discharged from the hospital two hours ago, but she had delayed it until now because of Kang Soo-hye's invitation.
"Pig, you're back!" Xiaomi greeted her while eating grapes. There were five unfamiliar faces around her.
Shen Jiezhu was stunned for a moment, then walked over and everyone came forward to greet her enthusiastically.
"Pig!"
"Ah! Our piggy is so cute! She looks much better in person than in the video!"
"Zhuzhu, your comments on Instagram are so refreshing! So cool!"
"We went to see the office yesterday. It was really nice, much nicer than my previous workplace! I love you, piggy!"
"Yesterday's Western food was so delicious. The high-end beef was really different! The pork was worth the money!"
…
The five of them talked together for a long time. Noticing Shen Jiezhu's slightly surprised look, Xiaomi remembered to introduce her: "Zhu Zhu, let me introduce you!"
Xiaomi pulled a girl with burgundy hair in front of her and said, "This is Park Jin-shin. You must know this sister's nickname, Pig Pig, the grumpy sister!"
Shen Jiezhu suddenly remembered: "I know, Bao Jie, the one with the highest fighting power in the comment section! Right? I liked your comment on Instagram yesterday!"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's me!" Sister Bao raised her hand and high-fived Sister Shen. She had a straightforward and bold personality. Her makeup was very aggressive, but when she smiled she looked silly, like a groundhog.
Because she was born the oldest among everyone, everyone called her Sister Bao, which was the title that made her famous.
"By the way, what part of the studio is Sister Bao in charge of?"
Xiaomi cleared his throat and said very seriously: "Public relations."
???
Public relations? Sister Bao? Sister Bao is in charge of public relations?
Good job guys, make the best use of everything.
Sister Bao and PR are a perfect match!
Shen Jiezhu can already imagine the scene. If someone spreads rumors and causes trouble, no one would survive under her hands kkk!
Next, Shen Jiezhu got to know VV, who was in charge of makeup and styling, and Zhen Jie, who was in charge of finance.
The legal affairs and graphic design people are both familiar people, namely Xiaodao who had the ghost of the prosecutor in his house last time, and Bibi who was entangled by Jin Chanxing.
Everyone agreed that the name Bibi was too ugly, so they changed her name to BB. Although the pronunciation is the same, at least the name looks much better.
Together with the driver waiting downstairs, the eight people from Shen Jiezhu's studio officially met.
A group of people went downstairs and took a group photo in the garage holding a half-human-height robot.
Oh yes, the robot is their newly purchased reception desk, which just took off the packaging, and its name is Tom.
The driver is an uncle who has been driving for 20 years. He is shy and doesn't talk much. He only talks nonstop when talking about his wife and children, with a look of happiness on his face.
When taking the photo, he was very embarrassed and subconsciously puffed out his chest and raised his head like a primary school student. It was only after everyone reminded him that he finally made the "yeah" gesture.
Shen Jiezhu booked a barbecue restaurant and everyone went there together. The driver dropped them off and let them have fun on their own. He had to go pick up the children from school, and they could just call him when they wanted to go home.
Sister Shen told him not to come over in the afternoon and just pick her up at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
A group of people entered the barbecue restaurant's private room and started ordering what they wanted to eat.
Shen Jiezhu was originally worried that the atmosphere would be awkward, but she didn't expect everyone to be so lively, like old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they were having a particularly happy chat.
Halfway through the meal, Xiaomi suddenly discovered that the fan group she managed had exploded. She clicked in to take a look and found out that the media had revealed news about Zhuzhu again. Was it about her love life?
Love?
The moment he saw these two words, Xiaomi looked up at Shen Jiezhu. Is Pig in love?
In the field of vision, Shen Jiezhu was fighting very hard with a piece of beef, so busy that she couldn't stop.
Seeing this scene, Xiaomi decisively denied the guess in his heart.
impossible!
She is in this state now, where can she fall in love, and who will fall in love with her?
Xiaomi opened the Internet and saw the relevant entries.
A reporter took a photo of Sim Ji-joo wearing a hospital gown at the door of Master Choi Jin. That afternoon, there was another video of Big Bang members walking out of the hospital. Most importantly, the agent went there again in the evening.
From this, it can be speculated that Shen Jiezhu and Quan Zhilong are in love. It is inconvenient for him to be present, so the members and agents came to visit.
What strict logic.
It seems to make sense at first glance.
If Xiaomi was not an insider, it might have been encouraged by such a piece of news. In fact, many fans have been influenced by this news and made various speculations in Shen Jiezhu's comment section.
【Watching Big Bang's new album: Not so fast, right? Didn't they just get to know each other?】
[I'll give you a punch to wake you up: You only need to avoid suspicion when you are truly in love, okay? It's friends who are open and honest! Such rumors can even be spread, I'm speechless...]
【路人thyroid腺: Thank you for the invitation. I checked the time in the video. When Taiyang and the others left, Zhuzhu was still in Master Cui Zhen's ward. Don't you check the time when you spread rumors?】
[Tuck your autumn pants into your socks: GD: He's not here, but I still have to take the blame. ]
"Sister Bao, I leave it to you. There are a bunch of rumors that need you to deal with."
Hearing this, Sister Bao put down her chopsticks, picked up her phone and scolded the editor.
Two minutes later, an account named "Shen Jiezhu Studio" tagged the media that published the love news. It did not write a single word, but only posted a picture.
It is a legal term.
[Rumor-mongering: refers to fabricating facts through personal imagination and spreading fabricated information through various channels. In serious cases, the offender may be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years.] [1]
This operation is unprecedented.
The fans were stunned, and the media that were tagged were also stunned.
It was the first time for them to see a studio's public relations officer being so tough. The job of reporters and the media was to dig out and expose news that no one knew.
The fact that such a rumor-mongering entry was posted shows the attitude of the studio.
A large number of fans rushed to follow the news and left comments below.
[Pig Bravely Flying: Group photo, hahaha! Our piggy style is really different from others, great PR, I like it! ]
【Really not wasting: I like this kind of PR that gets to the point and never drags it out kkk! I used to wait for the PR of some companies to respond, and it really took me half my life. 】
[Summer hasn’t come yet: Hahaha, go check out Zhuzhu’s Instagram. She just posted a photo of a studio dinner and photoshopped some words. The PR person is Baojie!!!]
[Don't believe in rumors or spread them: Just got back! The robot at the front desk is so cute, is there anyone who wants to join me in stealing it? ]
[WJSN Don't Get Lost: The studio is located in Cheongdam-dong! Big luck! Did Pig Pig sell her car and buy a house? Hug me, rich lady!]
[Love Pig Day 6: kkk If the PR is Sister Bao, then this situation is too normal. Our Sister Bao said that this news is too ridiculous, typing is a waste of time, and dinner is more important! ]
【JYP Little Fairy: But don’t you want to explain? Big Bang members were indeed photographed leaving the hospital. 】
[Love Pig Day 6: Shouldn't Waiji explain this? Why did his artist go to the hospital? Who was he visiting? Was one of their girlfriends sick and in the hospital?]
[JYP:...I think what you said makes sense, but shouldn't both parties have to explain themselves? I was actually convinced by you! This is ridiculous!]
The suspected romance news has stirred up quite a stir online, but there is no movement from Shen Jiezhu. Xiaomi and Bao Jie chose to keep it a secret. Anyway, the facts are there, so if you don't agree, come and argue.
As people who know the situation, they are not afraid at all.
This is the style of their group of people. Whenever there is something to do, they will do it without any hesitation.
Soon, at three o'clock in the afternoon, another incident dominated the hot search headlines, overshadowing the news about Shen Jiezhu.
Someone anonymously broke the news online, saying that the fire at Gangnam Factory No. 3 was set deliberately by someone, and the arsonist was Park Sik-jin, who killed Kim Chan-seong.
According to that person, the land of Jiangnan No. 3 Factory happens to be the center of the Jiang family's business empire.
The Jiang family needed this land urgently and negotiated with the factory owner many times, but they could not come to a deal on the price. At that time, Park Zhizhen had just been annexed by the Jiang family and had always been looked down upon.
Later, Park Shik-jin volunteered to handle the matter. The whistleblower went with him at the time. On Christmas Eve, they went to communicate but were rejected again.
Park Shik-jin was feeling depressed, so everyone went out for a midnight snack. Near dawn, Park Shik-jin said he was going to make another communication. He came back about half an hour later, with hurried steps, as if he was frightened by something.
Later, they heard that a fire broke out in the factory, nine people were burned to death, and the place became a haunted house. The Jiang family successfully bought the land at the lowest price. The people who accompanied him at that time were later dismissed by him for various reasons, but because he gave a large amount of resignation fees, no one made a fuss at that time, and everyone took the money and left.
After the land was bought back, Mr. Jiang died of a serious illness. The Jiang family felt that there was something wrong with the land, so they put it on hold.
The whistleblower himself actually forgot about this incident, but suddenly remembered it when he saw Shen Jiezhu's live broadcast a few days ago.
Originally he only had one life on his shoulders, but now he had nine more. The police station immediately deleted the review information that was about to be released, and a new round of headaches began.
The police station meeting room was in complete chaos.
"Why is Park Shik-jin so troublesome? Chief! These are nine lives! If it is confirmed, Park Shik-jin will definitely be sentenced to life imprisonment." The policeman sitting in the front expressed his headache.
Another person took over the conversation: "The Jiang family won't give in, what else can we do? Let's find evidence first!"
"Who knows whether an anonymous post is true or false? It doesn't matter who posts it, but we have to find the person who posted it first. We can take our time to find him. There's no rush anyway."
"Bah! Helping him get away with this is really unfair to those lives!"
The director, sitting in the front chair of the conference room, heard the chaos. He took a deep puff of cigarette and said, "Put it on hold until this storm is over."
"The situation this time is different. There are no family members of Jin Canxing causing trouble, so the gossip died down quickly. But for the nine people here, are their families still alive? If we delay any longer, they will hold up signs to block the door tomorrow!"
“That’s right…”
The more they talked, the less confident they became. This matter really pushed them into a desperate situation. If the Jiang family didn't give in, they would be squeezed from both sides and would have no choice but to swallow their anger.
It's really shameful for a policeman to end up like this.
Just when everyone was at a loss, someone suddenly ran in.
"Director, the Jiang family has given in!"
The director sat up instantly and put out the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.
"Mrs. Jiang has spoken. The Jiang family cannot tolerate a murderer who has committed ten murders. This matter must be investigated thoroughly and thoroughly. Mrs. Jiang also said that we should gather all the victims' families together, and the Jiang family will compensate them."
This……
Someone heard something wrong.
"We haven't even started investigating yet, but you're asking for compensation. Isn't this just putting the blame on yourself?"
"Heh! This is not to put the blame on themselves. The Jiang family means that no matter who did this, even if it was done by Park Zhizhen's subordinates, it was still done by him... Do you understand? The Jiang family is going to give up on Park Zhizhen!"
"But didn't Park Zhizhen say that he is the one in charge of Changkun? Should we listen to this lady?"
"Listen! Why not? Once Park Shik-jin is sentenced to life imprisonment, won't all his shares and assets go to Kang Soo-hye? In the final analysis, this is a civil war between the couple for property, and they insist on asking us to get involved."
"Okay, now the outcome is almost decided, let's just listen to Madam Jiang and investigate it thoroughly!"
"Go find Li Zaiyou. Shen Jiezhu mentioned him before, he must know something!"
After being suppressed for many days, the group of people were finally able to investigate the case openly. Everyone excitedly started working according to the arrangement, and collected a list of victims and handed it to Jiang Xiuhui.
That night, Jiang Xiuhui filmed a video to publicly apologize and said that she had no idea about the incident.
Changkun Group cannot tolerate such a vice president, and the Jiang family cannot tolerate such a son-in-law. I hope the police station will conduct a fair trial and uphold justice for the innocent.
Jiang Xiuhui's speech immediately aroused everyone's praise and compliments, such as "the most conscientious entrepreneur", "the eldest daughter of the Jiang family", "Changkun Group should be led by such a person", etc. Various terms appeared on the list.
We won’t discuss how much water there is in this for now, but this wave of operations has indeed caused the company’s shares, which had plummeted all day, to rebound. This is a very rare ups and downs since the Park Jik-jin incident.
Shen Jiezhu and her group had a big team building in the afternoon. After lunch, they went from the comic book house to the steam room, and then from the steam room to the cinema. They went shopping in Myeongdong and matched clothes for Shen Jiezhu to wear for tomorrow's recording. They wandered around for a whole afternoon and finally arrived at the last stop of the team building at one o'clock in the morning.
The hottest bar in Gangnam: club octagon.
Shen Jiezhu's soul was out of her body, and she was so tired that she felt dizzy, but she was still enthusiastically taken to the bar by everyone.
I heard from Sister Bao that,
The reason why this bar is so popular is that it checks the appearance of its guests. If they don't look good, they can't enter. This review mechanism is well-known throughout Seoul.
Because of this reason, Club Octagon is called the "gold rush pool for idol stars", which means that every customer there has the looks to be an artist.
Because the atmosphere is great, many artists like to come here. If you are lucky, you can even meet your favorite star!
If I can get an autograph and take a photo with you, it would be a huge win!
As soon as the business hours arrive, college students and office workers come here in groups just to see if their looks meet the standards.
Shen Jiezhu and her group arrived and after checking their IDs to make sure they were all adults, they entered the bar.
Xiaomi always says that Seoul is small, so small that you can run into someone you know just by turning your head.
Shen Jiezhu has never had any personal experience with this sentence, after all, she is still in the lost stage.
However, when she entered the bar, she realized that Seoul was really small!
She actually ran into Wu Shixun and his teammates who were out for fun here!
