Chapter 68: Collusion



As the saying goes, one who eats someone's food should be grateful. Looking at Li Xi's back which was tense due to nervousness, the formulaic expression slowly turned into rainbow praise.

"Really?" Li Xi was suspicious. Although Luo Jingxuan's attitude had been quite gentle before, praising herself? That didn't seem like it.

Luo Jingxuan was choked by Li Xi's question. He rarely felt embarrassed or annoyed. He couldn't handle official business impartially, nor could he praise his cheap wife. It was really hard to please his cheap wife.

"I just expressed my own opinion. There is no truth or falsehood."

"Oh." Hearing Luo Jingxuan's cold tone, Li Xi instantly felt that this was right. She relaxed and her tone became lighter. "Got it. I don't know if there's been a reply to the email I sent this evening. I'll go back to my room and check it out first."

"Go ahead." Not wanting to dwell on this with Li Xi, Luo Jingxuan decisively let the man go. He watched him skip away before heading back to his study. As he sat at his desk, a sudden thought struck him. He'd just looked like he'd eaten too much, but how could he be jumping around so much after just a few words? Wasn't he feeling uncomfortable?

Luo Jingxuan shook his head, sighed to himself that it was great to be young, and turned around to throw himself into endless work.

Li Xi burped as soon as she returned to her room. Later, she realized she had eaten too much and was feeling bloated. She had been skipping along without feeling anything, but now that she had stopped, she felt a bit nauseous.

What a sin! I will never eat so much again.

If you eat too much, you can't just rub your stomach directly, because it won't be digested in a short time. Li Xi pressed the acupuncture points on her hands while walking, hoping to make her stomach feel better. But the room was so small that when Li Xi got her phone, her stomach was still full.

Li Xi decisively picked up her phone and headed downstairs. As she walked, she opened her email app. To her surprise, Su Yuan had already replied.

Because the photos taken by Mian Lao Si were so high-definition, there was absolutely no chance of mistaking someone. There was ample evidence that Lin Yuanzhou was having multiple affairs. Su Yuan initially expressed his gratitude for informing him of this before the news broke, but after all, Lin Yuanzhou was his man, and there were things he needed to verify himself. Furthermore, regarding Li Xi's proposal to use "Rich Family Gossip Talk" to expose Lin Yuanzhou's negative information in exchange for a partnership with Yuanyin Entertainment, Su Yuan said he needed to consider it. However, he was very interested in "Rich Family Gossip Talk" inviting him to watch and participate in the next gossip scene.

At the end of the email, Su Yuan also included his business card. "Soy Sauce" is welcome to contact him by phone or add him as a chat friend.

Li Xi didn't really care about the account's collaboration with Yuanyin Entertainment. Having read the original novel, Li Xi knew of several explosive pieces of gossip about wealthy families. In the original novel, not every piece of gossip was exposed. Even if it was, according to the timeline, it hadn't happened yet. With the advantage, she could easily obtain evidence in advance and expose it using her account.

Take the recent scandal surrounding Lin Yuanzhou, for example. The original story had already been exposed, but it was later, and the content wasn't as explosive as what Mian Laosi had uncovered. With the information he had in his head and Mian Laosi's abilities, "Rich Family Gossip Talk" would have plenty of material to expose in the next two to three years.

So, whether or not she has entertainment industry resources is fine, at least for "rich gossip," it's not particularly important. But considering her future career plans, it wouldn't hurt for Li Xi to get in touch with entertainment industry insiders, or with the PR teams of entertainment companies skilled at shaping public opinion.

However, there was no rush for Li Xi and Su Yuan to deepen their cooperation at this stage. Although she had been a veteran office worker before her time travel, Li Xi was still a freshman in college, and she had money. There was no need to start working hard now.

Li Xi still wants to be a pretty loser for a while! Although she's not really that loser now.

In the spirit of "playing the long game to catch the big fish," Li Xi ultimately chose to add Su Yuan as a chat friend using her regular account. She and Su Yuan had no direct conflict of interest, and the Li and Su families weren't particularly involved. Furthermore, perhaps influenced by the plot, Li Xi and Su Yuan didn't actually know each other in the original story. At least when Mian Lao Si was investigating Li Xi's connections, he didn't have Su Yuan in mind, and their schedules didn't overlap.

Besides, Li Xi still admired Su Yuan in some ways. Although he frequently changed boyfriends and girlfriends, he never pushed anyone, never cheated, never deceived anyone, and was generous with his money. He was a man of integrity. Although many people thought his behavior was shabby and he didn't take relationships seriously, Li Xi thought he was much better than most playboys from wealthy families.

While the consensual exchange of money for sex may sound like a sex trade and a mad attempt to test the law, it's also true that Su Yuan's promiscuity has saved many families on the verge of collapse. After all, those who make deals with Su Yuan aren't just those seeking to climb the social ladder, like Lin Yuanzhou; there are also those forced to take this path by family hardship.

All I can say is that every family has its own problems.

By the time they'd walked from upstairs to the courtyard, Su Yuan had already passed the friend verification. It was so fast that Li Xi couldn't help but suspect he'd been waiting for a message from Li Xi. It was an illusion, absolutely an illusion. Even if Su Yuan loved gossip, he wouldn't be so impatient, right?

SY【Rich family gossip?】

Hongfen Wanku [To be more precise, I'm the writer for the Rich Family Gossip account. You can call me "Soy Sauce." Operations are handled by others, though I also manage it.]

SY [Soy sauce? Can you tell me your real name? Is this a large or small size?]

Hongfen Wanku [This is the full size. As for the name, we'll discuss it when we meet. What if you don't want to cooperate with me? It would be a waste of time if I exposed myself in advance. (¬︿??¬☆)]
