"As for matters such as your serious breach of contract due to your personal behavior, which has led to the international endorsement company pursuing exorbitant liquidated damages, our legal department will formally notify you and your management team in writing."
"Now, please leave immediately. Otherwise, we will have to ask security personnel to take compulsory measures and call the police."
"No! You can't! President Wang will help me! Don't even think about silencing me! Qin Yuheng! You will die a miserable death! Qin Yuzheng! You..."
Ruan Weiwei's voice was like a chicken with its neck strangled, filled with incredible horror and deeper despair.
She obviously didn't expect that Wang Zhenhai, whom she was clinging to, and her past and transactions that she thought were secret, had already been known to the Qin family.
Her last resort and trump card was like a paper castle in front of Qin, vulnerable to any blow!
The cries and curses outside the door completely disappeared, leaving only the dead, staggering footsteps being dragged away, like the remnant of a death knell.
Inside the office, however, there was a completely different kind of silence.
Qin Yuzheng's palm stayed on Qin Yuheng's head for another two seconds before slowly retracting it, as if the previous action was just a natural episode.
He picked up the slightly cold black tea, took another sip, and his eyes fell back on the computer screen. His slender fingers tapped on the keyboard, as if he was starting to work on the next job.
Only the broad back that was tightly embraced by Qin Yuheng could be heard, and the sound of a steady and powerful heartbeat could be heard, beating against Qin Yuheng's chest again and again.
Qin Yuheng still maintained that stiff posture, his cheek pressed against the back of Qin Yuzheng's neck.
He slowly, ever so slowly, tightened his arms around his brother and buried his face deeper into the crook of Qin Yuzheng's neck, greedily absorbing the soothing, cool breath.
He sighed silently, the corners of his lips rising uncontrollably, little by little, until he finally revealed a smile of utmost satisfaction, utmost attachment, and utmost danger.
It was like a believer who had finally received the unique favor of God, or like a dragon that had completely imprisoned the most precious treasure in its arms.
Outside the window, the last bit of April light was completely swallowed up by the city's neon lights.
Three days later.
Dingfeng Capital's Wang Zhenhai's private reception room. Thick velvet curtains block out the outside noise, and the air is filled with the luxurious aroma of cigars and expensive leather.
Ruan Weiwei sat on the large leather sofa, but did not feel comfortable at all.
She was wearing a well-tailored black dress and had delicate makeup on her face, trying to hide the haggardness and panic that came from her bones, but her slightly trembling fingers and the fear deep in her eyes betrayed her.
Ever since she was dragged away in public at Qin's headquarters that day, she has been like a frightened bird.
The news that Xingchen Entertainment was under investigation was like a bombshell, and she became a plague that everyone avoided.
Wang Zhenhai's attitude also became ambiguous, and his previous promises were like illusions.
"Mr. Wang," she tried to make her voice sound calm, even with a hint of pitiful pleading.
"The Qin family... they're going to kill me all! You can't just ignore me! You promised to help me!"
Wang Zhenhai leaned back in the large boss chair, slowly blowing out a smoke ring, his eyes looking like he was sizing up a commodity for sale, with undisguised calculation and a hint of annoyance.
"Miss Ruan," he said in a long tone, "help you? How can I help you? The Qin family is determined to kill Xinghui this time. Pulling out the radish will bring out the mud. Don't you know how dirty your bottom is? They even got the 'records' of your 'private communication' with me, tsk tsk..."
"That's slander!" Ruan Weiwei screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Then she realized that she had lost her composure and suppressed it, her voice tinged with tears.
"It was Qin Yuheng! He forged it! He framed me! Mr. Wang, you are so powerful, there must be a way, right? As long as you are willing to help me get through this, I will do anything!"
"Anything is fine?" Wang Zhenhai narrowed his eyes, his cloudy gaze wandering over her, filled with naked desire and evaluation.
"Ms. Ruan, it's not that I don't want to help you. The Qin family acted swiftly and ruthlessly this time, and the chain of evidence is too complete. A head-on confrontation is a dead end. Public opinion?"
He scoffed, "Are all the people in Qin's PR department vegetarians? Your little essay about 'being bullied in the swimming pool' was suppressed before it could even begin to ferment, without even making a splash. The only way now is..."
He paused deliberately, admiring the glimmer of hope that suddenly lit up in Ruan Weiwei's eyes, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.
"...It means removing the fuel from under the cauldron." Wang Zhenhai lowered his voice, leaning forward slightly, with a kind of bewitching excitement.
"No matter how powerful the Qin family is, they're not a monolith. Especially that Qin Yuheng! He's Qin Yuzheng's biggest weakness, and the easiest point to break through! Didn't you say he's a lunatic with ulterior motives?"
Ruan Weiwei's heart skipped a beat and she held her breath.
“Instead of crying out for justice outside, it’s better to…” Wang Zhenhai lowered his voice even lower, with a venomous coldness.
"Why not find some way to get 'hard evidence'? Any irrefutable proof that Qin Yuheng was being immoral towards his brother! Photos, recordings, videos! The clearer, the better! The more explosive, the better!"
"By then, we won't have to do anything. Public opinion will completely tear the Qin family, especially Qin Yuheng, apart! To protect his beloved brother and the reputation of the Qin family, won't Qin Yuzheng have to sit down and negotiate with us?
"You, Ruan Weiwei, will naturally be able to escape, and even... turn a disaster into a blessing, becoming a hero in bringing down the Qin family!"
