She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 78: The Pure Jade Idol Is Not to Be Provoked 28

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: The Pure Jade Idol Is Not to Be Provoked 28

With things getting so out of hand, Ah Chen would naturally still report to the police. Not only that, but she would also arrange for someone to deal with the account that posted the video with the beginning and end clipped.

The situation in that clip alone couldn’t convict Xuan Yanrui; she arrived too late to get that glass of wine.

Actually, it wasn’t even needed that much; without the wine, she could still destroy him!

Xuan Yanrui couldn’t get back up again.

Just like how they caused the commissioner’s ruin back then.

The matter of Xuan Yanrui being investigated was naturally caught by paparazzi again, and now netizens viewed him like stinking fish and shrimp, mocking and cursing him.

He naturally wouldn’t admit to drugging anyone; they couldn’t find evidence, so they couldn’t do anything to him.

As for placing Du Chen in that room, he could say it was a mistake.

That Zhang Chaoming wasn’t clean himself and definitely wouldn’t come forward to accuse him.

Leaving the police station, Xuan Yanrui scrolled through his phone, glaring red-eyed at the online commotion.

How did he end up here?

Shouldn’t it be Du Chen who fell this far?

Since he placed Du Chen in that room, he foresaw her fate. Either she obediently catered to Guan Mingqing or she faced ruin.

But now...

He hadn’t harmed Du Chen one bit, yet he was eternally finished in this industry.

Xuan Yanrui could no longer trouble Ah Chen, and thinking about how he got to this point, he immediately made a call.

"President Su." He gritted his teeth and shouted, "You’ve really screwed me over."

He resisted cursing; since he couldn’t make it in that circle, he had to find another way out.

If it weren’t for Su Zihuan, he wouldn’t be ruined. If the other side didn’t give him an explanation, this wasn’t over!

Su Zihuan, having just been mocked by Ah Chen not long ago, was already furious. Hearing Xuan Yanrui’s complaint, his temper flared: "When you handed me the video, it wasn’t complete. Who knew you’d be so unclean? Wake up, you can’t blame this on me. You’re responsible for yourself. If you’d given me the full video and been prepared, you wouldn’t have ended up here."

"What now, getting knocked down and trying to extort me? Look at who you are, daring to extort me." Su Zihuan sneered, "You better wise up."

A wicked smile appeared on Xuan Yanrui’s lips, less urgent than before, and he spoke slowly: "President Su, my reputation is already like this, I don’t really care anymore; how much worse could it get? But you’re different, as the CEO of Su, if word got out you did such shady business and was taken away by the police, it might have some impact on Su. After all, this isn’t a small issue like before."

"An heir of the Su Family committing slander, hurting a young girl who spent ten years with the Su Family—it hasn’t even cooled down from the last incident. Imagine how big this would get if the public heard about it?" Xuan Yanrui laughed heartily, "It’d be quite a spectacle wouldn’t it?"

"Really looking forward to that scene."

Arrogant, triumphant, insane.

His reputation is trashed beyond repair, making him finished in the industry.

Why get famous? Besides standing in the spotlight, isn’t it largely for the money?

He needed some money, a large amount, to make up for his lost future.

Afterward, he could take the money and go abroad, no longer living as a public figure, still living lavishly with money.

He didn’t care about his reputation anymore, but Su Zihuan and his kind still valued it.

Su Zihuan wanted to smash the table with his fist but held back: "Are you threatening me?"

"How could I? I’m just desperate here, asking President Su for a little help."

Su Zihuan: "With such a tarnished reputation, do you think netizens will believe your words?"

"President Su, anything done leaves traces."

Hearing this, Su Zihuan’s face changed greatly, realizing this Xuan Yanrui actually dared to...

"President Su isn’t short of money and should be willing to pay for these little things I have, right? If you’re straightforward, so am I."

Su Zihuan pursed his lips, truly never expecting such bravery from a mere actor like Xuan Yanrui. Yet currently, there was indeed no way around it; the person and reputation were both ruined, like a desperate gambler, either give money or the problem only ends if the person vanishes.

He wished for Xuan Yanrui’s death, imagining killing him hundreds of times over.

But it was not so easy to execute; this was a law-abiding society, and with advanced technology, leaving traces was too easy.

Even someone like Xuan Yanrui would dare threaten him. If he took that step, he’d fall into another cycle of endless threats.

"Can you guarantee that after taking the money, you won’t cause more trouble?" Su Zihuan asked coldly, "I’m telling you, if you get greedy, I have ways to make you disappear."

"No worries, President Su, just this one transaction." Xuan Yanrui said happily; he only wanted a sum to leave, not to really anger people.

He mentally calculated who else he could blackmail.

"But if anything happens to me during this period, some things might end up online," Xuan Yanrui added.

Su Zihuan was so furious he could explode.

Hadn’t thought Xuan Yanrui was this smart before, but now he was deft at having backup plans.

"How much?"

"A hundred million."

"Quite the appetite." Su Zihuan was annoyed; a hundred million wasn’t impossible but would hurt a lot, "Let me consider it."

"Awaiting your good news." Xuan Yanrui hung up the phone, showing some disdain in his eyes, crazier than ever.

These wealthy young masters weren’t much, after all—they still had to obediently pay up.

Xuan Yanrui dialed Guan Mingqing: "Sister Guan, when are you coming back? I want to discuss something with you."

After arranging a time, he called Zhang Chaoming: "Mr. Zhang, please don’t hang up; I have something to say. If you don’t listen, I can’t guarantee nothing will show up online. You know, I’m just a scoundrel, stopped caring about reputation long ago, but for someone like you with status, if some unpleasant scenes leak out, it won’t be the same, huh."

Zhang Chaoming’s eyes blazed with fire, catching day by day in his trap yet getting pecked by the prey.

This Xuan Yanrui was quite bold.

Xuan Yanrui demanded one hundred million from Su Zihuan and two hundred million from Zhang Chaoming. As for Guan Mingqing, he asked for twenty million. He wanted more, but Guan Mingqing wasn’t as wealthy as the other presidents and CEOs.

Not only that, but he also got a windfall from some male and female bosses he interacted with later. As there’s evidence in his hands, and he’s now throwing caution to the wind, they really couldn’t do anything about him.

Guan Mingqing felt both angry and faint, truly not expecting Xuan Yanrui to go this far, underestimating him!

No matter what she said, Xuan Yanrui remained fixed on getting money, infuriating her.

She regretted it; had she known Xuan Yanrui was like this, she’d rather have supported Du Chen.

But it was too late.

"Sister Guan, you seem heavy-hearted. Did something happen?" Ah Chen asked with concern.

Guan Mingqing couldn’t possibly reveal this to her and suddenly had another idea, saying, "It’s my cousin, got caught overseas involved in a scam. Without money and connections, he can’t come back. Now I’ve found connections, but the money’s still not enough."
