"With the ss you’re in now, what can you possibly do to ? Instead of thinking about revenge, you should consider what to do next."

"What can I do? You’ve completely ruined , my entertainnt career is gone, and my financial backers can’t even stand the sight of . I hate you."

Ye Lu sneered, "Foolish, am I the one you should hate? I had no grudge against you, but you chose to harm for the sake of Yuan Jiayin. Think about it. If it wasn’t for Yuan Jiayin, you wouldn’t be in this ss. And when you were in trouble, did she help you?"

Xiao Ying was shocked, after her disfigurent, she tried to reach out to her backers and called Yuan Jiayin but Yuan Jiayin’s phone was always unreachable no matter how many tis she tried.

"Look at your face, you’ve been used and discarded, haven’t you?"

Xiao Ying gritted her teeth with hatred, "That...woman."

"I can offer you a lifeline, even a chance to start your life over, but you have to do sothing for ." Ye Lu’s tone was cold, "Heaven or hell, your choice!"

...

The project between the Shang family and Gu Clan has received all the necessary approvals and has officially started.

Shang Jingchen and Mrs.Gu had just let out a sigh of relief.

"Now that all the procedures are complete, those with ulterior motives won’t be able to cause any trouble," Shang Jingchen sneered.

But on the second day of the project, a bombshell news suddenly appeared on major websites.

"This is bad. The news online says that the original land deal was illegal. They are going to start investigating." The executive rushed in, his face drastically changed as he reported this to Shang Jingchen.

Shang Jingchen’s face also turned pale. This kind of illegal activity is no small matter.

Once an investigation starts, regardless of whether they’re innocent or guilty, the project, which has already started, will be delayed, and it will cost them a lot.

"Imdiately get Gu clan to discuss a counterstrategy."

When Mrs.Gu arrived, her expression was grim. Seeing this, Shang Jingchen felt that things were going from bad to worse.

Indeed, Mrs.Gu voiced with a headache, "President Shang, as you know, big companies like ours always have so dealings under the table to get land at a lower price. We managed to get this piece of land at a 30% discount from the standard rate, which is not an exaggeration. But if soone wants to make a big deal out of it, it will beco our deathtrap."

Shang Jingchen was imnsely annoyed, but he couldn’t bla Mrs.Gu.

Indeed, big companies like theirs will always grease so palms to smoothen the process. It’s almost an unwritten rule in this industry.

"I am afraid this issue is not going to be settled easily," Mrs.Gu was very concerned. She believed that Jun Huang would never give them a way out; this might only be the beginning.

"Mrs.Gu, there is no need for you to worry too much. I will ask higher-ups to help suppress this matter. The amount of this transaction isn’t large, they probably wouldn’t use it as an excuse to make a big deal. We just need to pull so strings." Shang Jingchen thought to himself that fortunately, the Shang family had a few influential officials as friends, they would definitely help with this matter.

But the next day, even more shocking news arrived.

The Vice President rushed in, panicked, "It’s really bad now! The official who was in charge of the land deal has been caught, accused of corruption and bribery. All the deals he has handled over the past few years are going to be investigated, and this land will be implicated too."

Shang Jingchen was shocked to the point where his face turned extrely pale. Troubles kept coming one after another.

Just yesterday, the illegal deal news broke out, and today the official fell from grace. If this isn’t soone deliberately stirring up trouble, he would not believe it.
