Han Fei and Yang Jingxuan snapped back to reality.
Their eyes turned in unison toward the source of the commotion.
Han Fei was dumbfounded. All he saw were a few place names—this wasn’t what he wanted.
What he needed was evidence.
What he sought were clues.
What the hell was all this nonsense?
Seriously, are you here just to look for someone?
“Huh??! This... this isn’t quite what I had in mind,” Han Fei stammered, his face twisted in frustration.
Gao Liyuan, coming back to her senses, pulled a USB drive from her pocket and handed it to Han Fei.
“Everything you’re looking for is in here. I’ve organized it for you.”
Han Fei stared at the USB drive in his hand, completely stunned.
A thousand curses raced through his mind.
Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!!
If you had this all along, why didn’t you give it to me earlier?!
Ignoring Han Fei’s dumbfounded expression, Gao Liyuan pointed at the computer screen.
“Jingxuan, write down all these addresses.”
Yang Jingxuan nodded, pulling out a small notebook to jot everything down.
After a while, Yang Jingxuan left with Gao Liyuan.
Han Fei’s heart was still racing as he tightly clutched the USB drive.
After a long pause, he finally let out a deep breath.
Since Gao Liyuan herself had delivered it,
he was certain it contained what he needed.
With that thought,
Han Fei prepared to return to his office to investigate further.
Just then, the department captain, who was on good terms with Han Fei, came rushing over in a frenzy.
“Hey, where’s Han Fei?! Where is he?!”
He was practically hysterical.
Spotting Han Fei, he rushed over and grabbed him, asking urgently.
Han Fei frowned, a bad feeling creeping over him. “What are you talking about?”
“That tech genius!!!”
“What about her? Did your department lose something?”
Han Fei was momentarily stunned.
That couldn’t be possible!!!!
The captain quickly shook his head to explain. “No! Nothing’s missing. She upgraded our department’s computer systems, and now they’re way easier and more efficient to use. Damn it, Han Fei, where is she? I don’t care about my pride anymore—I’m ready to beg her to stay as our technical consultant!”
Han Fei’s head was spinning.
A tech genius had been right under my nose???
“She... she left a while ago.”
Han Fei didn’t want to disappoint his old friend,
but he had no choice.
She was really gone.
“Pfft—”
The captain nearly choked, his face turning red with frustration.
“Han Fei, why the hell didn’t you tell me sooner?!”
“You didn’t ask. And don’t forget, you were the one bragging about how your systems were unbreakable.”
“Unbreakable my ass! If that genius had malicious intentions, she could’ve taken down everything I had in less than an hour.”
“That serious??”
“Alright, I exaggerated. It would’ve taken her less than half an hour.”
The captain shrugged, admitting defeat to such a prodigy.
Hearing this, Han Fei couldn’t help but laugh.
Meanwhile, on Gao Liyuan’s side.
After leaving the police station,
the sky had darkened.
So, she took Yang Jingxuan to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
“When are you planning to make your move?”
Yang Jingxuan stared intently at Gao Liyuan.
Gao Liyuan smiled warmly. “Interested in joining?”
Yang Jingxuan replied, “I used to not know who was good and who was bad. Now I do. Xu Mo isn’t exactly a good person, but he’s not a scumbag either. However, Lin Fan is a complete bastard. He deserves to die.”
Gao Liyuan nodded in agreement, recalling the past.
Lin Fan not only tried to haggle with her,
but he also made the most demands.
He paid the least but asked for the most.
Who wouldn’t hate someone like that?
If Gao Liming hadn’t personally gone after him, it would’ve been a miracle.
“The last assassination attempt by Xiao Shi and the others was too rushed. This time, we need to be fully prepared. Don’t worry too much. We’ve already pinpointed Lin Fan’s usual locations. Give me some time, and I’ll hack into all the surveillance systems in those areas.”
“Those places will become our eyes. Even if Lin Fan grows wings, he won’t escape!”
With the advancement of technology,
surveillance cameras are everywhere in the streets and alleys.
Unless it’s some remote dead-end,
they’re practically everywhere.
Most people can’t hack into these systems,
but Gao Liyuan isn’t most people.
“When it’s time to kill Lin Fan, make sure to bring me along. With me there, things will go much smoother afterward.”
“Don’t worry, Sister Liyuan. I’m not planning to let him face legal consequences.”
“And he won’t get that chance either.”
After a pause, Yang Jingxuan added coldly, “Because scum like him doesn’t deserve it!”
Gao Liyuan inhaled sharply, feeling a sense of pride.
Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents were stirring.
There’s no such thing as peaceful times—
it’s just that someone is carrying the weight for you.
That evening,
various media platforms and short video sites
began flooding with accusations against the Xu Family for exploiting employees and being heartless.
Several influencers with millions of followers
posted videos criticizing the Xu Family.
Any video bashing the Xu Family
received countless likes, shares, and follows.
The backlash was overwhelming,
quickly trending on social media.
It was clear that someone was behind this orchestrated attack.
Unfortunately, the uninformed masses fell for it,
getting swept up in wave after wave of manipulated outrage.
“What the hell?! Is this for real? The Xu Corporation is actually like this?”
“Oh my god, my dream of working for a big company is shattered. They’re monsters!”
“Hahaha—I thought it was heaven, but it turns out to be hell. Even dogs wouldn’t go there.”
“No wonder capitalists keep getting richer. I’ve learned my lesson.”
“Hey, watch out, Zhang San might come after you (insert dog emoji, facepalm emoji).”
Of course,
rumors stop with the wise.
Those spewing hate
were mostly ordinary people who didn’t know much about the Xu Corporation,
or students from average colleges.
Only those from top-tier universities, like the 985 and 211 schools,
truly understood the value of the Xu Corporation.
But then again,
the wise are always in the minority.
With the trolls leading the charge,
the Xu Family was practically drowning in a sea of hate.
The Xu Family’s stock even dropped by 0.001%.
Meanwhile, on the Xu Family’s side,
Xu Mo and his family remained unusually calm.
Except for Xu Shi, who was a little anxious,
the others were relatively unfazed.
“Brother, these people are clearly spreading lies. Are we just going to sit back and not fight back?”
Xu Shi puffed out her cheeks, looking like a little goldfish in a fishbowl.
Over the past few days,
Xu Mo hadn’t seen Xu Shi hanging out with Lin Fan much.
In fact, his little sister had even sent people to beat Lin Fan up several times.
Xu Mo had noticed all of this.
In short, this time around, his sister wasn’t siding with the enemy.
Xu Mo’s attitude toward her had softened considerably.
“Young people shouldn’t be too impulsive. Not fighting back is our best counterattack.”
“Why?”
“Generally speaking, they know they’re guilty, so why are they doing this? It’s just to smear us. By not responding, we stay invincible because we’re in the right. They want to take the moral high ground, but others will defend us from that same high ground.”
“Oh, I see. Brother, you’ve changed.”
“How so?”
“You never cared about these things before.”
“Well, that was then.”
“Your previous sentence could be a classic.”
“My foolish little sister, use your brain more often. This is basic stuff, no need to overreact.”

Took a day off yesterday, by the way.
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
