Chapter 362 - 355: Zheng He Absolutely Couldnât Play the Mole!
Xu Nianyingâs face looked sour as death. What the hell was all this!
What did they take him for?!
A listed company CEO, worth over a billion, heir to the Xu Family, and now he has become a duck?
Who in the world is playing tricks?!
Who is smearing his reputation out there!
Let him catch them, and he will not let them get away with it!
Xu Nianying was extremely busy today, not with being a duck, but with socializing and being offered a hefty sum for offspring.
His phone with harassment calls had hardly stopped ringing.
Xu Nianyingâs face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, wondering who would do such a pointless thing, releasing his number.
He only gave his number to Chen Xixi today; could it be Chen Xixi who did it?
At least the Bai Family definitely wouldnât do such a meaningless and dumbfounding thing.
It seemed he had to teach that brat a lesson; otherwise, Xixi would soon be stepping on his head and causing trouble!
But before that, he had to first tackle the mess in his company.
Compared to Chen Xixi leaking a single number, the Bai Familyâs issues and the frequent troubles at their media company were giving him a bigger headache.
...
Dingxin Media.
Zheng He, in the past couple of days, had practically leaked all the dirt of every artist in the company.
It was the first time such a massive collapse happened, causing widespread panic, everyone worried about their star careers.
Inside the lounge, some people discussed in whispers, "I heard thereâs a mole in the company recently, and the leaders are investigating."
"It must be someone from the old guard to have so much dirt on the company!"
"Thatâs right! Our VP is about to resign, right? Is it possible he sold out the company because heâs discontent with the big boss?"
"Hard to tell, maybe he canât stay in the company any longer, so he wants to take the company down with him!"
Zheng He, who was outside the door, began to tense up, then relaxed again; he thought he would be the prime suspect!
After all, the company had never had such a situation for such a long time, and it happened right after he joined.
But it seems they all felt a newcomer wouldnât have such information access?
That certainly helped him dodge a bullet!
But there was still the risk of discovery, as soon as they checked testimonies, they would realize someone in the company had been probing other artists for information frequently.
Zheng He thought, he couldnât be found out, or else he wouldnât even wait for the company to collapse before Xu Nianying took his revenge.
So Zheng He hurriedly found a male artist with poor resources and whispered, "The thing you told me last time, about Hu Yun having an improper relationship with the boss, who else have you told?"
Sensing something, the male artist looked at Zheng He warily, "I only told you! Are you the one who leaked it?"
Zheng He immediately denied, "How could it be! I get along so well with Hu Yun, weâve even been on shows together, how could I possibly screw her over! Besides, I still rely on this company to make a living; the companyâs troubles are no good for me, right?"
The male artist thought it made sense. Besides, he had looked up some stuff about Zheng He online; the guy seemed kind of dumb. If Zheng He was the mole, then whoever chose him must have water in their brain!
Zheng He couldnât possibly be that clever of a mole!
But the male artist overlooked Zheng Heâs ability to stir up trouble.
The male artist then waved his hand and said, "This kind of scandal, itâs actually easy for company insiders to find out, after all, Iâm not the only one gossiping about other artists every day, so itâs hard to investigate, unless they spend a lot of Money to track the leakerâs IP."
The leakerâs IP?
Good thing he was a bit smarter and used Hu Yunâs office computer to do the leaking.
Even though this was his first time being a mole, he had watched plenty of related movies. Mole leaks were usually anonymous or involved hiding the IP. He didnât have the technical skills, but no matter, using someone elseâs account was a perfect way to hide his own IP.
Zheng Heâs lips slowly curved into a smile; he knew that sooner or later this would be useful!
At the same time, he couldnât help but praise himself internally for being a real genius!
Zheng He sighed with relief: "I thought it was you who did it! Now it seems that finding the mole wonât be easy!"
After saying this, Zheng He did not forget to put on a show and fiercely denounce the mole, "This mole is simply too despicable! Are they trying to make it so that we all canât make Money?!"
"Exactly! So hateful!"
Zheng He: "But moles are usually quite clever, and I donât know if the company will be able to catch the mole. If they canât, then the moleâs tactics are really too formidable!"
After finishing his words, Zheng He went to find another female artist who has always been oppressed by other artists and never really stood out.
This time he said: "I overheard someone talking about you the other day, and I suspect that your scandals were leaked by that person! Because she always felt that she was better than you, she gossiped about you in front of others, deliberately belittling you to magnify her own sense of superiority!"
The female artist immediately knew who he was talking about - which rival in the company didnât get along with her, who was more outstanding than she was, and who always looked down on her - was she not clear about this in her heart!
The female artist frowned and asked, "Is it Yu Miaomiao?"
Zheng He dodged the question with his gaze and turned his head away, murmuring, "I didnât say that..."
Before Zheng He could finish, the female artist turned and stomped away furiously.
Zheng He chuckled softly.
The female artist would definitely go to settle the score with Yu Miaomiao.
The two were already mortal enemies, what could this calculation result in? Of course: deeper hatred, and more conviction that it was the otherâs doing!
In this way, the chances of everyone suspecting him were significantly reduced!
Let the company go under, once it does, heâd be free and could still receive a sizable penalty fee, heh heh!
Zheng He was very pleased with his achievements and couldnât help but step out of the company, wanting to find someone with whom to share his joy and cleverness!
The desire to brag surged again.
Not bragging would just make him uncomfortable.
After thinking for a while, he finally called Chen Xixi.
Now, other than showing off to the mastermind Chen Xixi, he really couldnât think of anyone else to brag to.
At that moment, Chen Xixi had just removed her makeup and was getting ready to pack up and return to the hotel, "Whatâs up?"
Zheng He said proudly: "Have you seen my achievements?"
Chen Xixi generously praised: "I saw it, itâs great, just be careful not to get caught."
Zheng Heâs chin tilted up, even more smug: "Donât worry, I used Hu Yunâs computer to leak the information!"
"But the accounts require real-name verification, how did you handle that?"
"I bought the account online! They canât trace it back to me!"
"Thatâs very clever!" Chen Xixi indeed had not misjudged him. For doing dirty deeds, it had to be Zheng He; just look at these meticulous plans, he really shows potential for crime, itâs not just talk.
Zheng He, flattered by the praise, was overjoyed, "Alright, I just wanted to prove to you that my IQ is not zero! I lost to you before only because I was unlucky!"
Chen Xixi curled her lips, benevolently speaking: "Donât be too proud too soon, Xu Nianying is not a fool either."
"If heâs not foolish, then I am even less so! By the way, about the one who is supposed to stir the pot! Iâve been working so hard these past two days, but how come I havenât seen anyone stirring things up?"
"Itâs coming soon," Chen Xixi said.
"Okay, then Iâll just wait with peace of mind!"
Zheng He had just hung up the call.
When he saw a large group of police officers approach his direction from not too far away.
Zheng Heâs legs went weak all of a sudden.
It couldnât be another arrest for him, could it?
He had been behaving recently, not scammed, and had not committed any crime!
What did they take him for?!
A listed company CEO, worth over a billion, heir to the Xu Family, and now he has become a duck?
Who in the world is playing tricks?!
Who is smearing his reputation out there!
Let him catch them, and he will not let them get away with it!
