I. Gu Yanting's Fury
At the engagement banquet, Gu Yanting, who was originally full of pride, watched helplessly as Lin Wanqing was kidnapped by A Yu in front of everyone. The carefully planned engagement ceremony turned into a farce, and the anger in his heart erupted like a raging volcano. His face was ashen, and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. After returning home, he kicked open the door to his study, and the documents on the table were shaken and scattered all over the floor.
"Outrageous! How dare you ruin my plans!" Gu Yanting roared through gritted teeth, his whole body trembling slightly with rage. He paced back and forth in the study like a trapped wild beast, contemplating how to exact his revenge.
"Ah Yu, Lin Wanqing, you just wait! I'll make you pay a heavy price for what you did today!" Gu Yanting clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force. He knew that if this matter wasn't handled properly, not only would he lose face, but his prestige in the business world would also be severely affected.
II. Initial Conspiracy
Gu Yanting sat at his large desk, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down. He picked up a cigar, lit it, and took a deep drag, letting the pungent smoke swirl in his lungs, trying to quell his inner rage. After exhaling a puff of smoke, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes, and a vicious plan began to take shape in his mind.
His first thought was to utilize the power of the media. Gu Yanting knew the power of public opinion; if guided properly, it could bring Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing to ruin. He picked up his phone and dialed a friend who was a journalist.
"Old Wang, this is Gu Yanting. You must have heard about what happened at the engagement banquet today, right? I have some juicy scoops here that will get you on the front page." Gu Yanting's voice was deep and seductive.
Old Wang on the other end of the phone immediately became interested: "Mr. Gu, what juicy scoop do you have?"
“Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing have a complicated, unknown relationship, and they may even be involved in some illegal activities. I can provide you with some clues, but you must report according to my requirements and completely smear their reputation,” Gu Yanting said coldly.
Old Wang hesitated for a moment: "President Gu, this matter needs to be based on solid evidence, otherwise it will be difficult for me to handle. If something goes wrong, I'll lose my job."
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to get you the evidence. You just need to prepare the layout and publish the article according to my instructions. You'll get your share of the benefits once it's done." Gu Yanting's tone was firm and left no room for argument.
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yanting began to think about how to fabricate so-called "evidence." He called his trusted assistant and gave him instructions.
"Go, find a few people who are skilled at forging photos and documents, they have to be absolutely reliable. I want them to forge some shady transaction records between Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing, as well as some ambiguous photos. Remember, it has to be realistic, no one can spot the flaws." Gu Yanting's eyes gleamed with an evil light.
The assistant took the order and left, while Gu Yanting leaned back in his chair with a cold smile on his face, as if he could already see Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing's disgrace.
III. Public Opinion Strategy
At the same time, Gu Yanting did not place all his hopes on fabricating evidence. He knew that to completely bring down Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing, he needed to leverage more resources. Therefore, he began to use his connections in the business world to contact various online troll companies.
"Give me a large and efficient group of online trolls. Once the media reports this, have them immediately stir up trouble online and guide public opinion to attack Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing. I want them to become public enemies!" Gu Yanting said to the head of the online trolls on the other end of the phone.
The naval commander quickly replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, we will definitely do as you request. However, regarding the expenses..."
"Money is no problem. As long as you achieve my goal, I'll give you as much as you want. But if you mess it up, you won't have it easy either!" Gu Yanting interrupted him impatiently.
After arranging the online trolls, Gu Yanting thought of Zhong Hua again. He knew that once Ah Yu and Lin Wanqing's relationship was exposed, Zhong Hua would inevitably be implicated. And Zhong Hua's mother's illness was his trump card.
"Hmph, Ah Yu, let's see if you choose Zhong Hua or your own career then. I'll make you struggle in pain, and then destroy you completely!" Gu Yanting muttered to himself.
IV. Misfortunes never come singly
While waiting for the fabricated evidence to be completed, Gu Yanting began to take action against Zhong Hua. He used various channels to leak information about the complex relationship between Ah Yu, Lin Wanqing, and Zhong Hua to some medical staff at the hospital where Zhong Hua's mother worked. The news quickly spread throughout the hospital.
Zhong Hua's mother was already in poor health, and upon hearing that her daughter was caught in such a terrible media storm, her condition deteriorated instantly. Lying in her hospital bed, she was pale, breathing rapidly, and kept muttering Zhong Hua's name.
After receiving the call from the hospital, Zhong Hua rushed there anxiously. Seeing her mother's frail and sickly appearance, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Mom, don't worry, things aren't as they say, things will definitely get better." Zhong Hua held her mother's hand tightly, trying to give her some strength.
However, the doctor called Zhong Hua into his office.
"Ms. Zhong, your mother's condition has suddenly worsened, and she needs major surgery immediately, otherwise her condition will be very dangerous. However, the surgery is very expensive, you see..." the doctor said helplessly.
Zhong Hua suddenly felt dizzy. Almost all of her savings over the years had been spent on her mother's treatment, and she simply couldn't afford that much money now.
"Doctor, please, you must save my mother. I will try my best to raise the money. Can you arrange the surgery first?" Zhong Hua pleaded desperately.
