Bai Yuejie’s face was ashen as she sat on the sofa, looking at the computer in front of her, "Is it taken care of?"
"Yes, it’s all settled," Uncle Liu replied gravely, "I’ve made him destroy the original files, and Senior Sister’s account has also been banned. Even if Senior Sister starts a new account and posts again, it won’t be as popular as it is now."
Bai Yuejie’s expression finally eased a bit as she sat on the sofa.
But her body still trembled slightly, she stared at the computer intently, gritting her teeth, "Tang Gu, this idiot, played like a fool and doesn’t even realize it. This Senior Sister... must be dealt with, Uncle Liu, track her IP address, and then..."
Uncle Liu gently shook his head, "To do so now would cast too much suspicion, let’s wait."
Tears streamed down Bai Yuejie’s face, "What should we do then, Uncle Liu? This has blown up so much. They’re saying I’m the murderer and now so many people are cursing at me, why should I tolerate this!"
"This is all a misunderstanding; you don’t need to worry about those things, leave it to me," Uncle Liu patted her shoulder reassuringly, "Right now, it’s just their side of the story. Apart from these baseless speculations, they don’t have any other evidence. Even if the police come, they can only ask a few questions and can’t file a case. Don’t be scared."
Bai Yuejie was still panicked.
"These things are not what you did," Uncle Liu sighed softly as he stroked her hair, "Silly child, you just like Mr. Shi. So when you found out he liked Senior Sister, that’s why you had Tang Gu provoke her, just to tarnish Mr. Shi’s image in Senior Sister’s eyes. A little jealousy between women is nothing out of the ordinary. Are we not even allowed the freedom to love?"
Uncle Liu’s words gradually calmed Bai Yuejie down.
From start to finish, all she did was have Tang Gu deliver that speech.
The rest was just Tang Gu and Senior Sister fabricating and speculating.
Those words, after all, were just assumptions, and assumptions aren’t the same as facts. Why should she be afraid now?
Uncle Liu saw her complexion had improved considerably and finally smiled, "After all, Senior Sister is now seen as a victim of an assassination, so people’s thoughts are easily swayed by the underdog. At times like these, we just need to shatter their perceptions, and then we’ll naturally be clear of blame."
"Right," Bai Yuejie nodded, her gaze firming up, "This Tang Gu is really ungrateful. I’ve been so good to her, yet she dares to treat me , huh."
Uncle Liu was about to say something when suddenly his phone rang. Hearing the words from the other end, his expression grew more serious.
Bai Yuejie watched, her heart pounding, "What’s wrong?"
"Shi Lingyan is getting involved. He’s offering three times the price to have the data recovered."
"No!" Bai Yuejie shrieked.
Even at this moment, she herself didn’t know what else was in the recording.
But she had a premonition it was definitely not going to be anything kind toward her!
She couldn’t handle it!
Uncle Liu nodded and began to threaten and entice the person on the other end of the line.
In terms of financial power, they truly couldn’t compete with Shi Lingyan.
But they had the upper hand.
Since the data was already destroyed, it couldn’t be recovered.
Uncle Liu said, "If you want to make this money, then go ahead. But since the data has been destroyed, some of it must be unrecoverable. And if you need help in business in the future, just ask."
