Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me Chapter 284 : Checkmate (2)

The naked ladies tossed out a round of scandalized screams before they grabbed whatever they could to cover their nudity.

"What is going on here?" Wu Jin roared, but he had both hands up in a surrendering gesture. "Why are you raiding my suite???"

The ladies were hauled to their feet and the officers covered them with the blankets they brought.

The one who answered Wu Jin was none other than the leader of the operation.

"Apologies, Mr. Wu," he said with a disdainful smirk across his face. "We received an anonymous report about a debauched activity taking place in this hotel."

Wu Jin scoffed.

"What debauched activity? These ladies are my girlfriends. The sexual activity taking place here is done with consent by all parties."

"Oh yes, consent indeed."

The leader held up a file at Wu Jin’s eye level.

"But do you know that your youngest paramour here is only sixteen years old?"

"...!!!"

Shang Ruohai, who was relaxing in his own apartnt with a good book and a chilled glass of wine, received one ssage after another on his phone barely ten minutes later.

"As agreed, we ambushed him in the middle of his orgy party."

"We already detained him and his sex companions at our cells in the headquarters."

"These are the pictures you want."

Shang Ruohai took a sip from the wine. Tonight, it tasted particularly sweet and intoxicating.

The pictures across his phone screen clearly showed a naked Wu Jin, who was in the middle of fucking an underage, blond young woman.

These Western ladies always appeared more mature than their age.

And because Wu Jin particularly liked taking a young woman’s first ti, he was bound to stumble over this roadblock sooner or later.

Shang Ruohai moved his pawns with the calculated precision of a chess master. Each piece was placed strategically, tightening the noose around Wu Jin’s neck. Before Wu Jin could even blink, the trap was sprung, and he was at Shang Ruohai’s rcy, his career teetering on the brink of destruction.

After carefully blurring everyone’s faces, he submitted select photos to his old classmate, who ran the most popular gossip account on Weibo.

His old classmate was naturally more than happy to receive these scandalous photos.

"I promise you hell on earth for your enemies, and I am more than glad to fulfill my promise," his classmate said as soon as she received the obscured images.

"Many thanks," Shang Ruohai replied before he ended the conversation.

Why, the moon was particularly round and bright tonight, he mused.

What a wonderful night indeed.

The next morning, Weibo exploded with several sensational news one after another.

The first one concerned Jin Zhuo, who was found in a sorry state amongst the pile of trash outside a restaurant before dawn. He had ghastly knife wounds across his cheeks. On top of that, he also suffered from several broken ribs.

The perpetrators were yet to be found. Jin Zhuo was not available to give further information about his assailants.

The second one -- the bigger one -- ca in the form of several obscured images that were released by a notorious gossip account on Weibo.

Although the faces were blurred out, people could see that the man engaged in an orgy with three won at once. Weibo netizens quickly broke into a speculative decision regarding the man’s identity.

First Level* : "I am sure that it is a popular male celebrity. Which salaryman can afford having a fourso with three won at once?"

Second Level : "Judging from their skin colors, I think the won are not Asians..."

Third Level : "I agree. If I can make an educated guess, one is Caucasian, one African, and one Southeast Asian."

Fourth Level : "My man collected won of other races to co have sex with him! I no longer worship the other celebrities. From now on, this man is my one and only!"

Fifth Level : "I am disgusted by the person who comnted above . Is your mind filled with nothing but sex? Kindly seek out a psychiatrist!"

Sixth Level : "Don’t bla for being a healthy and vibrant man with normal libido. All brothers online will support !"

Seventh Level : "After going through the images one by one, I think I know who that man is...."

Eighth Level : "Brother, Sister, whatever you are, if you already know who he is, why don’t you just ntion his na here openly?"

Ninth Level : "It’s not that difficult, really. His fans would know. Pay attention to that dragon tattoo at his waist..."

Tenth Level : "OH MY GOD. EVERYONE, ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THAT VERY PERSON I AM THINKING ABOUT???"

Shang Ruohan, who had been reading the comnts one by one, beca more and more horrified by the minute. In a fit of anger, he threw his phone at Wu Jin, who was kneeling on his office floor, begging for his forgiveness and help.

"Are you fucking out of your mind, Wu Jin???" Shang Ruohan snapped. "Only two days are left before the winners of the Kunlun Snow Lotus Award are announced and you dare to cause such a scandal???"

Wu Jin, head bowed and face devoid of blood, was sweating profusely.

"I am wrong," he said in a helpless tone. "Mr. Shang, it’s all my fault. I didn’t know... They lied to . They showed fake IDs..."

What followed was a slap so hard it sent Wu Jin tumbling to the carpeted floor.

"You asshole," he cursed while aiming kicks at Wu Jin’s stomach. "You son of a bitch."

Wu Jin endured the beating without a single complaint.

And yet, before Shang Ruohan could abuse his champion any further, Shang Xiaoyi’s secretary knocked at his door and solemnly summoned him to the top floor.

Shang Ruohan took a deep breath and straightened his collar. Before he walked out of the door, he shot Wu Jin one last destructive glare and hissed, "I am not done with you. You better pray that we can still salvage the situation."

*If you are used to reading Chinese novels that involve comnts on Weibo threads, levels denote the order of the comnts. So "First Level" is actually first comnt, etc..
