A Billion Stars Can’t Amount to You

The gossip she just heard in the hallway now was true. The most searched topic on Weibo’s searches was about He Jichen. #HeJichenMurderer

Murderer... Before she read the story, the headline alone stunned Ji Yi.

Not too far off, Zhuang Yi rushed over to Ji Yi from behind as though she just realized something and instantly tried to grab Ji Yi’s phone.

Unfortunately, Zhuang Yi was one second too late. When she reached Ji Yi, she had already clicked a post about He Jichen.

Zhuang Yi’s fingers trembled for a moment as her feet suddenly came to a stop. She stared at Ji Yi unblinkingly. Word after word, she swallowed back everything she wanted to say to Ji Yi.

The very first person to post at eleven last night was a nobody, so there must’ve been someone behind the scenes who spent a lot of money to push the story. There were over 100k shares, 700k comments, and over 2 million likes.

The Weibo post was just one simple sentence: ”YC’s ex-CEO and founder, He Jichen, was once arrested for attempted murder!”

Following those words was also an attached video.

Ji Yi stared at the phone for a long time before her fingers trembled. She clicked play.

The video must’ve been an uploaded video. The video quality wasn’t clear, but it was enough for people to recognize the person’s face.

The first person to appear was Qian Ge, who was wearing a casual dress. She was chatting and laughing with another woman as they walked out of a club. After the two of them finished chatting on the sidewalk, Qian Ge made her way to the parking lot where she pulled out her car keys. Qian Ge unlocked her car and reached out to pull open her car door, but just as she was about to get into the car, she turned her head as though someone was calling her name. Qian Ge must’ve known the person, because she flashed a clear smile on her face. She let go of the car door and walked to the source of the sound. She took just two steps when the person who called her came into view of the security camera. Even though the person didn’t show their face, Ji Yi recognized who it was with just one glance. It was He Jichen!

The next part of the video came a little unexpectedly. In a particularly good mood, Qian Ge’s brows arched as she spoke with He Jichen. However, her lips moved for just a while when He Jichen, who had both hands in his pockets, suddenly pulled out something shiny. He Jichen’s hands lunged towards Qian Ge’s abdomen. Qian Ge’s eyes were wide open, staring at He Jichen in disbelief.

He Jichen’s face was nothing but cold and ruthless as though the woman before him didn’t exist. A second later, he withdrew his hands from her abdomen and raised his hands with a horrifying aura like he just sentenced someone to death.

Ji Yi then saw it clearly - the switchblade in his hands. The flickering bright knife was covered in blood which dripped onto the ground.

On the other hand, Qian Ge seemed to not have realized what happened - she still wore a smile on her lips. After about ten seconds, she suddenly covered her abdomen then slumped to the ground.

Thereafter, the police and ambulance arrived. He Jichen was cuffed and brought to a police car. Qian Ge was rushed into an ambulance by several people dressed in white.

The police car and ambulance quickly left the scene, leaving behind a few police officers who took photographic evidence of where Qian Ge laid along with the blood stains which were clearly shown in the video.
