After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 310 - 304: How Did You End Up Offending Pei Yan?

Chapter 310: Chapter 304: How Did You End Up Offending Pei Yan?

"It’s like this, but if you don’t claim it for a long time, it will automatically expire and be reclaimed." Little C sensed that Pei Yan was suppressing his anger and didn’t dare to provoke him, so he spoke weakly.

"So how much is the reward?" Pei Yan took a deep breath.

"One hundred thousand..." Little C’s voice grew even weaker.

"How much did you just say?" Pei Yan’s voice was cold, and his well-defined fingers clenched tightly.

"It’s not my fault! You blocked me!!" Little C quickly defended itself.

Pei Yan was unmoved, "Then why didn’t you say anything before?"

"A normal person, who would block the system after acquiring it?!!" Little C said, feeling wronged.

It was probably the only system that had been blocked, and it had been laughed at by other systems for quite some time!

"So can the reward be reclaimed?" Pei Yan took a deep breath to calm himself at the thought of losing 100,000 Life Value.

"This needs to be applied for." Little C’s voice still revealed a sense of grievance.

But even so, it still tried to find a way for Pei Yan, "However, this process will be quite long. You can take on other tasks to accumulate Life Value, or go find Princess Tang Yun!"

"What’s the task with the highest reward at the moment?" Pei Yan asked.

"Make Princess Tang Yun say she misses you, reward: one thousand Life Value." Little C said.

Pei Yan pressed his lips together, "Got it."

Little C said seriously, "Your Highness, if you block me again and miss the reward next time, applications won’t be accepted anymore."

"Oh, is it that you don’t allow it, or the system’s rules?" Pei Yan retorted.

Little C’s tone weakened a bit, "Um... higher-ups... don’t allow it."

Pei Yan raised an eyebrow but didn’t expose it, "Oh."

In the end, he didn’t block the system again.

In the middle of the night, a Weibo post suspecting Qiong Hai of misconduct quickly climbed the hot search rankings.

In the middle of the night, Qiong Hai was bombarded with phone calls from his manager, but he was so sound asleep he didn’t hear anything. His assistant used a room key to enter his room, and the manager even took a flight to rush to the film set overnight.

"Brother Hai! There’s trouble!" Qiong Hai’s assistant entered the room and saw that Qiong Hai was sound asleep, and shouted directly into his ear.

Qiong Hai was awakened, feeling trapped in his bed, and in his groggy anger, he threw a pillow at the assistant.

The assistant brushed off the pillow and hurriedly said, "Brother Hai, you’re trending."

"Trending? Isn’t that a good thing! Why wake me up in the middle of the night for that?" Qiong Hai turned over, ready to go back to sleep.

"It’s about you at the venue... someone took photos, the scene was a bit chaotic... now the internet is spreading rumors about your improper relationships with multiple people." The assistant spoke tactfully.

Qiong Hai instantly woke up, jumped out of bed, "What did you just say?"

The assistant handed the phone for him to see.

"Damn! Who’s messing with me behind my back?!" Qiong Hai’s eyes reddened, and he threw the phone against the wall, shouting angrily.

After venting, he calmed down a bit, picked up his phone again, opened that image, and analyzed calmly, "This image doesn’t show the whole picture. As long as I don’t admit it, I can treat it as a false accusation and send a lawyer’s letter."

"But Brother Hai, aren’t you forgetting something? Considering how well your fans know you, I think it might be difficult. Hardcore fans are already unfollowing you now." The assistant looked at the photo, knowing anyone familiar with Qiong Hai could identify him.

"Then what do you suggest? Found out who’s behind this?" Qiong Hai placed his hands on his hips and kicked the bed hard, which contorted his face in pain, making his already gloomy face even more terrifying.

"It might be Brother Pei... Recently, your rival hasn’t even cleaned up their own mess, so they probably don’t have time to bother you. The only one you’ve possibly offended is Mr. Pei." The assistant speculated.

Immediately, he added, "Brother Liu is already on his way."

"Pei Yan?" Qiong Hai was momentarily stunned.

"Remember, you asked me yesterday to dig up dirt on Qin Yun to ruin her reputation. She’s a part of Mr. Pei’s studio; he could hardly remain indifferent. Since there’s no conclusive evidence from them, should we ask Qin Yun to mediate? It might still be salvageable." The assistant calmly pondered.

Hearing this, Qiong Hai suddenly recalled that night. He wasn’t sure if Qin Yun saw anything that night. If she told Pei Yan, then it would truly be over for him.

"Did you find any damning dirt on Qin Yun that could ruin her, forcing Pei Yan to drop her?" Qiong Hai’s eyes turned cold as he hurriedly asked.

Only in this way could this matter be buried.

"No, Qin Yun’s biggest scandal is probably her habit of riding on trending topics and criticizing other celebrities. This is already common knowledge. When she terminated her contract with her previous company, nothing explosive came out. If we keep digging, I’m worried we’d really anger Mr. Pei. Since he hasn’t escalated it yet, it’s likely a warning for us to stop." The assistant reluctantly advised again.

"Do you think if we stop, they’ll stop as well? Are you brainless? Can’t even handle such a minor thing!" Qiong Hai shouted, questioning.

The assistant remained silent, but his expression clearly wasn’t happy.

After a while, he said, "Maybe we should wait until Brother Liu arrives to figure out a strategy."

Qiong Hai turned and glared at him, "So why are you still standing there? Hurry up and take down the trending posts! Do I have to teach you everything? Get them off the trending list right now! There aren’t many people online right now. Keep an eye on the trending topics and don’t let it gain momentum, otherwise, you’re done for!!"

Hearing this, the assistant’s face also turned a bit sour, and he immediately turned to leave, "I’ll go back to my room and switch phones."

Before leaving, he didn’t forget to pick up the phone Qiong Hai had smashed. It needed to be reimbursed by the company.

This egomaniac, if he doesn’t fall, who will!

The assistant thought, why doesn’t Mr. Pei come with solid evidence and finish him off!

After the assistant left, Qiong Hai had no one to vent to. He logged into Weibo with a small account to check the situation’s developments and sent several messages to his manager.

But the manager was on a flight and couldn’t be reached at the moment.

In contrast to Qiong Hai’s agony, Qin Yun slept soundly.

She had morning scenes with Qiong Hai, but in the morning, she suddenly received a notice that she had the day off.

When Yuanyuan brought her breakfast, Qin Yun learned that Qiong Hai was trending and that he was likely going to be replaced.

After the restless night, with only the manager arriving in the morning, another wave of trouble hit Qiong Hai. Yet the evidence was still inconclusive, not enough to end him completely.

The topic that had been suppressed in the middle of the night resurfaced, unable to be suppressed further.

On one side, Qiong Hai was trying to take down the trending posts, while Pei Yan’s studio kept putting him back on the trending list.

When Qiong Hai’s manager, Brother Liu, arrived at Qiong Hai’s room, he gave him a scolding: "What did you do to offend Pei Yan?"
