Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 839: Chapter 839: Internet Celebrity Ace (23)

Not long after this photo was exposed, that blogger started to reveal other scandals.

He had been sent to a juvenile detention center for fighting in middle school.

In high school, he almost caused someone’s death and was expelled.

He was also seen mingling with a dodgy crowd in a bar, with photos as proof. Although the photos were somewhat blurry, it was clear they were of Fu Chi in his youth.

Even an insider came forward claiming they had slept with Fu Chi and so on.

Despite Fu Chi’s cold exterior, he was more wild than anyone in private.

The details were so vivid that they could even describe some characteristics on Fu Chi’s body.

On the internet, Fu Chi’s public image was that of a cold, reticent, and abstinent young man akin to an Immortal.

With so much dirt suddenly exposed, his public image collapsed instantly, leaving his fans wailing in disbelief.

Chuzheng’s expression grew colder as she looked at all this information.

-

Chuzheng asked Wu Tian to investigate the account that first leaked the information.

She called Fu Chi. The call connected, but no one answered.

Chuzheng’s brows knitted slightly, ”Wu Fa, have you seen Fu Chi?”

”Mr. Fu went out to buy something,” Wu Fa replied in a monotone.

”When did he leave?”

”A while ago.”

Chuzheng continued to call, and this time he answered.

”Sorry, I was driving just now. What’s up?”

”Where are you?”

”I went to buy some things. I’ll be back later.”

Fu Chi’s tone was normal, as if he hadn’t noticed what was happening online yet.

”Is there something wrong? Or do you need me to bring something?” asked Fu Chi.

”Send me your location,” Chuzheng said.

”Okay.” He paused, ”I’ll be back soon.”

Fu Chi, without much hesitation, hung up and sent Chuzheng his location.

Near a shopping district.

Chuzheng couldn’t figure out whether Fu Chi had seen the messages online. If he hadn’t, asking him would just alert him.

If he had seen it and was pretending not to, what was his motive?

The Good Person Card was difficult to decipher.

Ah, he should really be locked up!

Wu Tian quickly reported back, ”Boss, I’ve found out. The photo was commissioned to be posted by someone who paid the blogger.”

”Who was it?”

”I don’t know. The contact was made online; it was a small account with little information.”

”...”

”Boss, about those scandals...” Wu Tian sounded worried, ”Do you believe them?”

With an indifferent expression that betrayed neither joy nor anger, Chuzheng replied, ”Believe what?”

In a weak voice, Wu Tian asked, ”Do you believe Mr. Fu...” The photo looked very real.

Chuzheng’s eyes lifted, her gaze as cold and piercing as an icy wind rising in a snow-covered land.

She spoke deliberately, ”I have never doubted him.”

Regardless of how that photo was taken, Fu Chi certainly was unaware.

As for those scandals...

He wasn’t that kind of person.

Her Good Person Card, at the very least, had that much confidence in him.

It must be someone jealous of her darling for being so attractive.

Chuzheng calmly asked, ”How was the money transacted?”

Wu Tian replied, ”Cash.”

Chuzheng: ”???” Are they a devil?

Wu Tian continued, ”The blogger is local. The cash transaction was made by leaving the money in a specific place for him to pick up; he never saw who it was.”

”There will be traces if it was a person. Find out where the transaction took place and check the surveillance,” she said, determined to see which bastard was targeting her darling.

”...” Wu Tian looked troubled, but solving problems for his boss was his duty, ”I will think of a way.”

-

Following the location sent by Fu Chi, Chuzheng found his car in the mall’s underground parking lot, but saw no sign of him.

Chuzheng called again, the phone ringing inside the car; he hadn’t taken it with him, which is why the location had remained here.

Where did he go?

Chuzheng thought of something and ran straight to the mall’s surveillance room.

”What are you looking for...”

Chuzheng slapped down a stack of money, ”Basement garage surveillance, bring it up for me to see.”

The two security guards exchanged glances, and after a minute of internal struggle, they pulled up the surveillance for Chuzheng to watch.

Chuzheng searched the monitors for Fu Chi’s car.

Fu Chi’s car drove into the garage, conveniently within the range of the cameras. He got out of the car, looking down at his phone. After a moment, he threw the phone back into the car and walked towards the elevator to the mall.

But when they brought up the elevator surveillance, they didn’t find Fu Chi.

He wasn’t in any of the footage.

Chuzheng asked the security guards, ”How can he leave without appearing on any surveillance?”

One guard thought for a moment and pointed to a route, ”If he left this way, there’s a passage without cameras that’s usually used for trash removal.”

Chuzheng left through that route and found herself in an alley with no surveillance.

Chuzheng called Bastard, but Bastard pretended to be dead and ignored her.

Completely useless when needed, what’s the point of it!

Fu Chi had disappeared.

Bastard didn’t show any signs of life, which at least proved that Fu Chi wasn’t in any danger yet, nor had he turned evil.

Chuzheng paced back and forth in the room, restless inside. Wu Fa stood straight with his hands behind his back.

With Guan Cang suppressing the news online, the explosive material didn’t continue to ferment.

The question was, where had Fu Chi gone?

Bang—

Wu Fa looked over at Chuzheng.

Without changing her expression, Chuzheng kicked the table again.

Wu Fa: ”...”

While Chuzheng was in a rage, Wu Tian returned.

He brought back a piece of surveillance footage.

”Boss, take a look, this should be the guy.”

Wu Tian pointed to the person in the video.

The trading spot didn’t have surveillance, but the exit did. Only a few people came and went, and one of them wore a hat and a mask, keeping his head down all the way, clearly abnormal.

-

Warehouse.

Dust was everywhere, the air was full of a foul and pungent moldy smell.

In the middle of the warehouse lay a man.

The man’s eyes were covered, and fearful muffled sounds came from his mouth as he turned his head, trying to figure out where he was.

Swish—

The cloth over his eyes was removed.

The light irritated his eyes, and it took the man a while to open them.

In front of him stood a girl. She appeared very pretty, with a cold and expressionless face.

Behind her stood two muscular men, one fierce-looking like a Green Dragon, the other like a White Tiger, clearly underworld figures.

”Mmm mmm...”

Fear filled the man’s eyes as he shook his head, not knowing how he had provoked them.

Chuzheng glanced at Wu Tian.

Wu Tian ripped the duct tape from the man’s mouth.

”Who are you people? What do you want with me? I have no money, I have a mortgage, a family to feed, I owe a huge debt to the bank, I really have no money!”

”Shut it!” Wu Tian threatened fiercely, ”Be quiet!”

The man was so scared by Wu Tian that he didn’t dare make another sound, shaking rhythmically.

Chuzheng threw the photo cropped from the surveillance footage in front of him.

”Who sent you there?”

”...”

The man looked down at the photo with fear in his eyes.

The man trembled, his face turning pale, ”I... I was just going to see a doctor.”

”Dress up like this to see a doctor?”

The man trembled even more, ”I was afraid of being seen by acquaintances, isn’t that okay?” He dressed up like this, who did he offend!

Chuzheng: ”...”

Wu Fa, Wu Tian: ”...”
