Chapter 3244: This Trick Was Ruthless

This time, Yuan Jiangyi was actually shocked. “I didn’t expect him to tell you about even those things.”

Yan Zhiqing misunderstood what Yuan Jiangyi had meant and started stuttering nervously and helplessly. “Should he have… not told me those things?”

“No such thing.” Before Yuan Jiangyi could even say anything, Wei Wucai had already answered.

He even glared at Yuan Jiangyi.

Look at how he scared the little girl!

Yuan Jiangyi immediately realized it and hastily explained, “No. No. Don’t misunderstand.”

Yuan Jiangyi waved his hand vigorously. “Actually, there isn’t much to say. I was just shocked that Xiao Cai would tell you about those things. He was never patient enough to tell people about them because he didn’t think they were a big deal. He doesn’t like seeing the huge reaction from people when being told about these things as he thought it was troublesome.

“You are the first person who has heard such things from him.” Yuan Jiangyi smiled shyly. “Clearly, you are special to him. He doesn’t even have patience for Hao Zi and me, not to mention someone else.”

Yuan Jiangyi’s teasing expression caused Yan Zhiqing to blush.

She felt too embarrassed to look at Wei Wucai.

Instead, she looked in the opposite direction from him.

“Eh?” At this moment, Hao Donghuai suddenly made a questioning sound.

Yan Zhiqing looked at him with a puzzled expression.

......

Hao Donghuai then asked, “You call him Xiao Cai? Xiao Cai never said anything?”

Hao Donghuai recalled how much they had been beaten when they first started referring to Wei Wucai as Xiao Cai.

They called him Xiao Cai so much that Wei Wucai became numb to it later on.

In addition, there were so many people who called him Xiao Cai, and it happened so many times that he couldn’t even keep track of who to beat up.

That was why he had allowed them to call him whatever they wanted.

“No. What would he say?” Yan Zhiqing was confused and said, “Don’t you guys call him that? I thought all of his good friends call him that. And he said that we won’t seem like friends if I addressed him the way strangers do. That’s why I call him Xiao Cai.”

Hao Donghuai felt so jealous. Back then, they had received so much beating to be able to refer to Wei Wucai as Xiao Cai.

They did live different lives!

Clearly, Wei Wucai really liked Yan Zhiqing.

After Yan Zhiqing explained, she said, “Please sit. You are all still standing. That’s rude of me.”

Yuan Jiangyi waved his hand and said, “We were too excited so we forgot.”

And so, Yan Zhiqing hastily asked the two to sit down.

Mou Danqiong and Fang Qiaohan were still there.

And so, Yan Zhiqing introduced them as well.

When Mou Danqiong saw that Wei Wucai’s friends were here, she knew that it would be inappropriate for them to join as this concerned Yan Zhiqing’s personal relationship.

Mou Danqiong thus said, “Qiaohan and I just came to take a look at things. Since we don’t have anything to do now, we will be leaving first.”

“Wait,” Wei Wucai said. “There’s something I have to discuss with you guys.”

Mou Danqiong and Fang Qiaohan had already stood up. When they heard Wei Wucai say that, they sat down again.

Wei Wucai then sent each of them a file.

“This is a portion of the financial record from Hou Wu’s office,” Wei Wucai said. “This portion includes any interactions between Hou Wu’s office and the celebrities’ agencies. It shows the transaction history of those companies after they purchased information from Hou Wu.

.

“I looked at it, and I was able to match some of the transactions with the materials we reviewed. Some of them were hush money from the celebrity’s agency paid to Hou Wu’s office. Hou Wu’s company had taken photos of their celebrities, and the price paid depended on the impact of those materials. The transaction history does match up with the materials we have reviewed.

“However, there are some transactions from certain agencies even though Hou Wu’s office has no materials on them.” If you asked how Wei Wucai knew about this…

Didn’t they transfer all the files from Hou Wu’s office?

They had reviewed the materials for a long time, and it was not a waste of time.

All they had to do was check the celebrity in the file and see if there was a transaction from that celebrity’s agency.

Therefore, Hou Wu’s company did not have blackmail materials on some agencies.

However, since there were no blackmail materials on them, why would they pay Hou Wu’s company?

“I’m guessing that those agencies have bought blackmail materials of other celebrities from Hou Wu’s company so that they could slander someone else or use the information so that they can win if they were to compete against those celebrities.

“Or maybe they had hired Hou Wu’s company to investigate a celebrity. No matter what, though, if these transaction records are released, Hou Wu will not be able to remain in the industry.”

Wei Wucai was speaking coldly.

These transactions with Hou Wu’s company only happened to prevent Hou Wu from disclosing the materials.

If not, which crazy person would gift Hou Wu money?

Who would sacrifice so much and gift him millions or even tens of millions?

“Secrets that are out will no longer be secrets.” Wei Wucai sneered. “Although Hou Wu’s company did not release the materials to the public, they are still at fault because they failed to protect the secrets of those celebrities.

“If people witnessed those beautiful celebrities secretly doing shady business, fighting among each other, and not doing anything good, would those celebrities forgive Hou Wu?

“Hou Wu, as one of the paparazzi, has offended many people. However, because he had a lot of blackmailing materials on many people, there was mutual control. Up to now, no one has dared to do anything to him.

“But it is different now. He had lost all his materials. If the transaction history with those celebrities were exposed to the public, it would negatively impact so many celebrities.

“There won’t be just one or two celebrities coming after him. There would be so many people working together to make his life hell.”

Mou Danqiong and Fang Qiaohan were both shocked.

They gasped.

Wei Wucai… had thought of such a ruthless trick!

He would basically be destroying Hou Wu’s foundation in this industry.

Even if Hou Wu managed to survive this, who would dare to work with him in the future?

He could continue being a paparazzi and stalking for news.

But he would need to survive so many people’s attacks first.

In addition, because of what Wei Wucai had done, he had lost all the blackmailing materials he had.

Hou Wu lost so much money. What could he use to support his paparazzi business?

He could still survive and live his life.

Wei Wucai didn’t kill him.

He would linger on feebly in the industry of paparazzi and would still survive.

But Mou Danqiong and Fang Qiaohan thought his move was ruthless.

However, Wei Wucai thought he was being merciful. At least he didn’t kill Hou Wu, right?

Hou Wu had threatened Yan Zhiqing, but Mou Danqiong had been the one to communicate with Hou Wu.

Hou Wu did make Mou Danqiong very mad.

And so, though Mou Danqiong was shocked when Wei Wucai suggested this, she still agreed to it.
