Chapter 20 New Gossip Master

The gossip of the real and fake young master has been a hot topic for half a month, and the heat has slowly subsided.

In fact, according to the normal timeliness of news, not many people should pay attention to this gossip in the second week, but within a week, the trial of Lin Yongkang's attempted murder case was opened, and then Lin Yongkang and Wen Jiaqi divorced, and the heat was stirred up again.

Speaking of which, although the case of Lin Yongkang's murder case caused a lot of trouble, it was not sentenced for a long time.

First of all, he was not even charged with attempted murder, but just made a plan, but it was exposed before he could implement it; secondly, the potential victim of the murder case, Chen Amei, signed a letter of forgiveness.

Although Chen A-mei fainted during the visit to Lin Yongkang because he accused her of ruining his life, she did not blame Lin Yongkang at all after she woke up. She really felt that it was all her fault and felt extremely guilty.

Not to mention that Lin Yongkang only hired a killer to attempt murder, even if she really died, she would definitely not blame him.

In fact, after being discharged from the hospital, Chen A-mei really went to the Lin family to find Shao Mingzhu, wanting to die to atone for her crime in exchange for them saving Lin Yongkang from prison.

Shao Mingzhu of course ignored her and was even very happy in her heart, because her actions made Li Yongxian, oh no, now it should be called Lin Yongxian, completely hurt, and he didn't even want to hear from Chen A-mei anymore.

However, Shao Mingzhu still did not deal with Chen Amei. She knew a truth very well. Some people are like dead when they are alive, but they will live forever in other people's hearts after they die.

She wanted Chen Amei to live well and be the living dead in Lin Yongxian's heart!

Of course, because Wen Yue had not met Shao Mingzhu and Chen Amei yet, she didn't know the above things. She only knew that she had counted the gossip points until her hands were tired recently.

Well, it's not that exaggerated.

As of today, she has obtained nearly 1.24 million gossip points from the gossip of the real and fake young master, but at least more than 800,000 of them were obtained on the first day.

Even if there is a small climax later, the gossip points obtained are very limited.

There is no way. At that time, the permanent population of Hong Kong was only about 6 million, and there were many elderly and children among them. More than one-third of them would pay attention to gossip news.

The way to calculate the melon-eating value is to count the number of people, which cannot be double-counted. Wen Yue thinks that the upper limit of the melon-eating value she can get is estimated to be about two million.

If there is no accident, two million melon-eating value is actually not a small amount, which can be converted into life value to extend her life by nearly four years.

The body she wears is twenty-five years old this year. Assuming she wants to live to a hundred years old, she can earn one or two million for each melon, and she can eat more than twenty melons with people.

But if an accident happens, two million melon-eating value can only buy two hours/two life-saving methods.

Thinking of this, Wen Yue's desire to earn melon-eating value suddenly became urgent.

But the melon-eating value is not something she can earn whenever she wants. She has to find potential melon owners first and take the initiative to contact people before she can punch in the big melon.

The problem is that she has already fleeced the Wen family twice. Unless the ones currently living in the UK suddenly come back, it will be useless for her to meet the Wen family members more often in the short term.

Not to mention the Yi family, there are only two brothers in total, one of whom is the male protagonist of the original novel. Every time the system sees him, he is either as quiet as a chicken or praises him lavishly.

The other one lives in the mainland, and no one knows when he will come back.

Wen Yue had no choice but to look through the address book left by the original body, hoping to discover potential melon owners from it.

However, the original body's personality is actually a bit of a homebody.

It's not entirely right to say that she is a homebody. After all, it's difficult for homebodies to muster the energy to travel around the world. When the original body was in a bad mood, she would go shopping from time to time.

But the original body did not have many friends. Because of her family environment, her personality was a bit cynical, and she spoke directly and even a bit harshly. So people who don't care about her family background can't stand her,

and she looks down on people who care about her family background. If she were a little dumber, maybe she could make a few friends who can't tell good from bad, but she sees through people's hearts too clearly, which makes it impossible for others to deceive her, so she has always been alone.

And this is also the main reason why the original self in the novel died of depression.

In short, Wen Yue's plan to discover potential melon owners from her circle of friends failed.

But it doesn't matter, if this way is blocked, try another way. As long as she can be thick-skinned, it should not be difficult to use the name of the richest daughter to get into a few more gatherings of young masters and daughters in the circle.

Wen Yue was about to ask the system where the rich daughters in Hong Kong were gathering, and she received a call from Yi Huai.

Although she and Yi Huai have lived under the same roof for half a month, they don't interact much. They

only meet at breakfast and dinner. They can have dinner together every day. The male protagonist is a workaholic, and overtime is the norm.

Unless necessary, the two don't talk on the phone very often. They are not familiar with each other, and it is awkward to talk on the phone. Anyway, most of the problems in life can be conveyed and solved through the housekeeper.

Because of this, when Wen Yue saw that the call was from Yi Huai, she pressed the answer button without hesitation, fearing that he had something important to say.

After the call was connected, Yi Huai did not talk nonsense, but got to the point directly: "The Lin family sent an invitation, inviting us to attend Lin Yongxian's return banquet together."

To Wen Yue, this was like someone handing her a pillow when she was sleepy. Her eyes lit up and she asked: "The Lin family is finally going to hold a banquet?"

Yi Huai asked: "Are you looking forward to their banquet?"

Of course!

It is no exaggeration to say that Wen Yue started looking forward to this banquet as soon as the story of the real and fake young masters appeared in the newspapers.

Although her living environment before she traveled through time had nothing to do with wealthy families, she had read several novels that also involved the theme of real and fake daughters/young masters, and knew that there would basically be a welcoming banquet after the return of the real daughter/young master. During

this period of time, Wen Yue did nothing, just waiting for the banquet of the Lin family, a century-old shipping family! When the real young master returns, not to mention all the celebrities in Hong Kong, at least half of the wealthy circle must come, right?

Is this an ordinary banquet for her?

Of course not! This is clearly a melon field!

But she waited and waited, but there was no news about the Lin family holding a banquet. She had just told the system that the real young master was probably a poor little thing who was not loved by his parents, and that the banquet was probably out of her reach.

If not for this, Wen Yue would not have looked for other ways and planned to shamelessly squeeze into the circle of wealthy women.

Although she wanted to go to the Lin family's banquet, Wen Yue was still reserved in front of Yi Huai: "I don't really want to go, but the real and fake young masters were exposed by the newspaper under my name, and I am really curious about the real young master now."

"The real young master is just an ordinary person, with a nose and two eyes, nothing more than us."

Yi Huai said this with a hint of meaning, and then quickly changed the subject: "The party will be held tonight, I will pick you up after work."

"Okay."

...

He said he would pick someone up after work, but in fact Yi Huai got home before five o'clock.

Wen Yue was taking care of her hair at that time. Her hair was originally long and had been curled. The weather has been hot recently, and she was too lazy to bother with it, so she just tied it up.

But she had to attend the party today, so she couldn't be too casual. It was just that there was no portable curling iron at this time, so it was difficult for her to style her hair delicately with her bare hands, so she could only curl it manually. Fortunately

, her hair quality was good. After combing it, she just wrapped her fingers around it a few times, and it looked like the original hair after it was loosened.

Just after she had fixed her hair, she heard the sound of a car roaring outside. Wen Yue looked up at the alarm clock and found that it was not time to get off work yet. She felt a little confused.

But when she heard the sound coming from downstairs, it seemed that Yi Huai had returned again, so she put on her clothes and took her handbag and went downstairs.

When she reached the corner of the stairs, she happened to meet Yi Huai coming in.

He seemed to have heard the noise and looked up the stairs.

It's not that he has never seen Wen Yue dressed up before. Although their relationship is ordinary and they have rarely attended the same events in the past three years, except for the wedding night when she took off her makeup, she always had flaming red lips and exquisite makeup when they met.

It was not until this time that she came back that she changed her previous formal attire, put on a shirt and trousers, threw away her high heels, and went out to meet people without makeup.

When Yi Huai first saw the young woman with white skin and red dress on the stairs, he thought he saw Wen Yue from the past, until he saw the smile on her face.

Well, she still has a different temperament.

Wen Yue didn't know what Yi Huai was thinking, she only knew that he looked at her for a long time. After walking down the stairs, she asked uncomfortably: "Is it strange for me to dress like this?"

In her previous life, she was born in an ordinary family and had never attended any banquets. She rarely dressed so formally, so she felt a little embarrassed when being stared at.

"No." Yi Huai stepped forward, nodded and said, "Very beautiful."

Wen Yue smiled and complimented her in return, "You are also very handsome today."

Yi Huai reminded, "I wore the same outfit this morning."

Wen Yue nodded without any guilt, "Yes, I wanted to say this to you this morning."

Yi Huai curled his lips, "Thank you." He asked Wen Yue if she was hungry, "It's still early, let's eat something to fill our stomachs before we go over?"

Although she had never eaten pork, Wen Yue had seen pigs run, and knew that many Western-style banquets looked grand, and the food was also displayed in a dazzling array, but most of them were desserts, which were not very suitable for filling the stomach. Wen Yue

had no objection to Yi Huai's suggestion, so the two walked side by side to the restaurant.

Apparently the housekeeper had made preparations. As soon as the two of them sat down in the restaurant, a servant brought up the dishes. They were all delicious but light food, in order to avoid an upset stomach during the banquet.

Despite this, Wen Yue still did not dare to eat too much.

The skirt she wore today was very slim-fitting, and the slight rise and fall of her belly was very obvious. She did not want to attend the banquet with a bulging belly.

After eating and drinking, the two of them rested for a while before going to the Lin family.

The Lin family residence is not on Taiping Mountain, but it is not far away. It only takes more than half an hour to drive there including the traffic jam.

When the two of them arrived, the banquet had just begun, but there were many people coming, and the luxury cars were parked two or three miles outside the Lin family garage.

But there was still room inside. Seeing the invitation that Yi Huai took out, the staff in charge of parking guided the driver to drive the car in. It's just that the bodyguards and others have to park their cars outside, and someone will lead the bodyguards to the lounge.

The main house of the Lin family is very large. There are seven or eight villas where the owners live. In addition, there is a banquet hall for entertaining guests, a low-temperature wine cellar, and servants' residences. Not to mention the garden, swimming pool, and sports field, which are essential for a mansion.

Wen Yue and Yi Huai got out of the car and were led by the servants to the banquet hall.

The banquet hall is not far from the gate. It is a two-story Western-style building. The single-story building is taller and more square than the surrounding buildings, with tall doors and windows. You can tell at a glance that it is not a place for daily residence.

At this time, the door of the banquet hall was open, the lights inside were fully turned on, and celebratory music was playing. People dressed in gorgeous clothes came in and out, and it was very lively.

Just as Wen Yue and Yi Huai walked to the door, someone hurried out from inside.

The one walking in front was a middle-aged woman. She was wearing a black off-shoulder dress and her hair was tied up high. Although there were traces of time in the corners of her eyes, she still looked beautiful. The

young man following behind her was about thirty years old. His facial features were a bit like the middle-aged woman, but he was more heroic and a bit steady. The four-piece suit he wore made him look more elite.

Wen Yue recognized the two people without the system telling her.

The former was called Shao Mingzhu, the mistress of the Lin family, and the latter was called Lin Yongxian, the real young master in the melon of the real and fake young master.

Wen Yue thought they came out to meet Yi Huai. Although he was not as wealthy as the shipping tycoon family in terms of assets, he was well-known among the wealthy people in Hong Kong. The most important thing was that he was young and had a promising future that was visible to the naked eye.

Although she was the daughter of the richest man, she was not favored at home, so she would not be noticed by the masters of the top wealthy families in Hong Kong. But

unexpectedly, Shao Mingzhu grabbed Wen Yue's hand as soon as she came out, and said in a friendly tone: "I wanted to call you in person, but I thought it was too abrupt, so I changed it to send an invitation."

"Me?" Wen Yue pointed at herself in confusion, wondering if Shao Mingzhu had found the wrong person.

"Of course." Shao Mingzhu smiled, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know that the son we raised for 30 years was not our biological son, and we wouldn't be able to reunite smoothly."

Wen Yue understood that Shao Mingzhu was a wise person, and she saw her contribution in the matter of the real and fake young master, and she also remembered her kindness.

Well, this situation is not surprising. After all, she flattered herself in front of Wen Rongsheng half a month ago. Now the flattery has become a reality.

Wen Yue said humbly: "I didn't do much in this matter. The evidence was given to me by others."

"I am very grateful that you can publish it." Shao Mingzhu said sincerely, but couldn't help but say, "But I really want to ask you about the source of the evidence."

"I don't know about this," Wen Yue had already thought of the words, "I received an anonymous letter, and the sender and address were blank."

"This."

Shao Mingzhu pondered for a moment and said: "I want to publish a missing person notice in your name in the newspaper for a long time. If the person who originally took the evidence contacts me, I can agree to one of his requests."

Wen Yue was a little tempted by these words.

But on second thought, she gave up the idea of ​​self-destruction.

In order to avoid the wealthy people she offended from taking revenge on the newspaper company employees in the future, Wen Yue was so high-profile and focused the attention of the whole Hong Kong on herself.

But she also had to consider her own safety, so she fabricated an anonymous practitioner, intending to tell those who wanted to get rid of her that even without her, the source of news would not be cut off.

Shao Mingzhu's promise was tempting, but her own safety was more important, so Wen Yue reluctantly concealed the information that she was the person she was looking for.

She did not reject Shao Mingzhu's suggestion. Anyway, the money from publishing a missing person notice was nothing to Shao Mingzhu, and with her around, there was no need to worry about someone claiming the credit.

Rounding it off, this matter was not bad at all for Shao Mingzhu.

For her, it was more beneficial than harmful. First, the newspaper under her name made money, and second, it was more conducive to confusing the enemy, killing two birds with one stone.

The two hurriedly agreed on this matter, and Shao Mingzhu officially introduced Lin Yongxian to Wen Yue.

Before this, Wen Yue had never met Lin Yongxian formally, but she was not unfamiliar with him. This man was a loser in the original book.

Although he was born into a wealthy family, he was deliberately replaced by someone, and he treated his enemy as his grandmother and respected him all his life. He didn't know who he was until he died.

Lin Yongxian was also not unfamiliar with Wen Yue.

After officially recognizing his ancestors, he checked the cause and effect of the series of events about the real and fake young master, and knew that the "Dongjiang Entertainment News" was under Wen Yue's name. He also saw the video of her supporting him (?) in front of reporters.

He was not stupid. Even though he did not have complete information, he could guess that if Lin Yongkang succeeded in hiring a killer, he would be the next person in danger after Chen A-mei's death.

So in his heart, Wen Yue was his savior.

So after saying hello, Lin Yongxian shook Wen Yue's hand tightly and said sincerely, "Thank you."

Wen Yue quickly understood what he meant and acknowledged her as his savior. She smiled

and said, "You're welcome." Almost as soon as Wen Yue finished speaking, Yi Huai said, "Should we go in?"

Shao Mingzhu came to her senses and smiled, "Yes, it's time to go in."

Lin Yongxian also quickly let go of Wen Yue's hand and smiled at Wen Yue a little embarrassedly. Wen Yue smiled back and followed the others inside.

There were not many guests coming here, and their families were not very powerful, so Shao Mingzhu skipped these people and led them directly to the group of middle-aged men headed by Lin Guanhua.

Compared with Shao Mingzhu and her son, Lin Guanhua was not so warm to Wen Yue. He thanked her politely and went to talk to Yi Huai.

Wen Yue didn't care about Lin Guanhua's attitude. She was more concerned about why the system prompt didn't sound. She asked in her mind: [Is there no one in this circle who has melons? ]

Impossible!

As the saying goes, men become bad when they have money. The colorful flags outside are standard. The people standing in this circle are all well-known wealthy people in Hong Kong. How could there be no melons at all?

After the system searched, it said: [Yes, dear, Lin Guanhua, who is talking to the male protagonist now, and the bald toy king next to him, and the food king standing on the left of Lin Yongxian, they all can't do it. ]

[All of them can't do it? ] Wen Yue widened her eyes, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

[Yes, none of them can do it. ]

The system answered very affirmatively, and then continued to reveal the gossip, [The flour king standing next to the toy king made his fortune with his wife. He is a well-known henpecked man in Hong Kong, but he has three mistresses outside. Every time he is caught, he has to kneel down and beg for mercy. ]

[Wow! ]

[The man standing next to the food king is named Hu. He is in the real estate business. He and his wife are model couples on the surface, but in fact they play their own games, and sometimes they play together. ]

[Wow!! 】

【There is also the guy with a short flat head over there, who owns a supermarket at home. He likes men and wives, and specializes in having sex with other people's wives. Last year, he was beaten into the hospital. 】

【Wow!!!】

After hearing these gossips, Wen Yue suddenly felt that her horizons were broadened. The aristocratic circle is really chaotic.

After being surprised, she couldn't help but wonder: 【With so many gossips, is there not a single gossip value that can exceed 1,000? 】

【No. 】 The system explained that 【Although these gossips are explosive, they have basically been exposed. The real estate businessman surnamed Hu, he and his wife were photographed having a pool party. 】

It was the same sentence. Although Wen Yue had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs running, and her hunting was very wide. She hesitated and asked: 【The pool party they held, it wouldn't be the pool party I thought of, right? 】

【Yes, dear. 】

Wen Yue swallowed her saliva and couldn't help but look up at the real estate businessman surnamed Hu. She saw that he looked calm and smiling, and there was no sign that he had experienced such a social death moment.

With this kind of psychological quality, it's no wonder that he can make a fortune.

At the same time, she felt a little sorry. If no one had exposed these melons, she believed that any one of them could earn a million melon-eating value. But it has become an expired melon, and the number of people that can be attracted is indeed limited.

But Wen Yue did not give up immediately. She stared at the first three people who were named and asked: [Where are the melons of Lin Guanhua and others? ]

[It has not been officially reported in the newspapers, but rumors have been circulating for a long time, especially the toy king. The female celebrity he liked once named and scolded the toothpick man. 】

To put it bluntly, although these news have not been on the headlines of newspapers, most Hong Kong citizens have heard of them, and the value of eating melons cannot be calculated repeatedly, so even if it is exposed, it will not earn the value of eating melons.

Wen Yue had just finished eating the melon and had not had time to feel disappointed when she heard Shao Mingzhu say, "Let's go over there and say hello?"

Looking in the direction Shao Mingzhu pointed, Wen Yue saw three or four noble ladies gathered together, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay." I hope these wealthy ladies will be more powerful and not be all rotten melons like those men.

However, ideals are full, and reality is very skinny.

Following Shao Mingzhu's excited walk over, Wen Yue did not hear the system prompt after listening to her introduction. After asking carefully, she couldn't help but sigh that women's private lives are indeed much cleaner than men.

Except for Yi Huai and Lin Yongxian, there was no one who didn't have scandals among the men just now. The average number of women was no less than a handful. There was no worst, only worse.

But these four ladies, including Shao Mingzhu, were all poor people whose husbands had affairs. They were not necessarily kind, but their character was not a big problem.

Naturally, they didn't have any scandals.

In the next half hour, Wen Yue met another dozen ladies with Shao Mingzhu. Their situations were similar, and none of them could make the system say anything.

Wen Yue was tired after going around, so she excused herself to eat, walked to the long table with desserts, picked up a dessert, looked around the banquet hall, and sat down in front of the sofa in the corner. After

sitting down, Wen Yue did not just focus on eating. After taking a bite of the dessert, she raised her head and wandered among the crowd, hoping to find potential melon owners.

But the banquet hall was too big, and the system had distance requirements. It was useless for her to just sit in the corner and watch. She had to focus on the groups of men and women in the hall, intending to go over and check in if she saw anyone she had never met before. After

looking around, Wen Yue locked onto three circles of people. One was the rich circle where Wen Rongsheng and Yi Huai were, one was the rich young circle where Lin Yongxian was, and the third was the mistress circle where Chen Baoqin was.

Wen Jiaqi did not come. She kept a low profile after her divorce and she would not appear in the social circle for a long time.

However, Wen Yue did not care much about Wen Jiaqi. After she locked in the candidate, she prepared to act. But just as she was about to stand up, a mocking voice came from the side: "People from our families all marry husbands of equal status. Unlike some people, they marry illiterate peasants and have the nerve to attend such occasions."

If Wen Yue had not looked in the direction of the voice and saw the young woman not far away rolling her eyes while talking, she would have found it difficult to identify with her.

But since she knew that the other party was mocking her, Wen Yue naturally would not sit idly by and wait for death, and was ready to fight.

As for a fight, she was not afraid.

But before the voice came out, the beautiful system sound rang in Wen Yue's mind first: [Ding - there is a melon! 】

Her eyes instantly burned as she looked at the young woman.
