The He Group’s holographic technology was leaked, and the spy turned out to be Zhao Yongkang, Lady He’s Prince Consort!
As soon as the news broke, the outside world was abuzz.
"Damn! What kind of top-grade Phoenix Man is this? Eat your food, spend your money, sleep with you, and then try to dig into your family’s corner?"
"This isn’t just digging under the wall, it’s outright theft."
"Suddenly I feel so sorry for He Taifu. What use is being rich? She still can’t find a man who truly loves her."
"...Cut it out, you wage slave earning three thousand a month, feeling sorry for a Princess of a billion-asset wealthy family?"
"Haha, exactly. With her wealth and willfulness, He Taifu can just replace her cheating husband with another in no time."
"Darling, darling, look at me, I’m 185cm tall, weigh 130 kg, graduated from 211 University, have no bad habits, and most importantly, I’d never steal from our house—"
"Pfft, hysterical, the guy above. But Zhao Yongkang is really dumb, isn’t He Group his wife’s property? Even if he’s not that involved, won’t he become the Supreme Emperor once they have kids?"
"Not everyone has such foresight, nor can everyone resist the temptation of money..."
The online discussion was endless, and Zhao Yongkang’s reputation was becoming exceedingly tarnished.
Living off a woman isn’t the biggest loss of face; it’s the ungrateful behavior of betrayal that truly shatters ethical boundaries.
No, it’s no longer a question of ethics, but one of law.
Stealing secrets, especially those already handover to the country, could, if taken seriously, be considered theft of national property. He might even be accused of treason if not careful.
Outsiders are just happy to spectate.
For Su Muxue, Zhao Yongkang’s niece, it was all shocking, painful, and humiliating.
She truly couldn’t believe that her Little Uncle, who seemed like a gorgeous artist straight out of a manga, could commit such a theft.
However, the video that went viral on the net was very clear: Zhao Yongkang sneaking into the He Group’s R&D lab late at night, secretly taking the notebook filled with confidential documents and handing these over to a person named Zhou Zhou.
And this Zhou Zhou, as some online also revealed, was none other than the executive assistant to the president of Leng Group.
That arrogant CEO with a human face and animal heart, and not all there in the head?
Su Muxue had only met Leng Mo once or twice, but each time her impression of him wasn’t good.
He was too arrogant, always carrying himself with his nostrils pointed towards the sky.
As if chatting with her, a high school girl from an ordinary family, was a great favor.
Moreover, the way he looked at her was uncomfortable, full of aggression and possessiveness.
Having matured too early due to the death of her parents, Su Muxue wasn’t unnecessarily sensitive, but she was highly perceptive to the outside world and strangers.
She could tell immediately whether someone’s intentions toward her were kind or malicious.
No matter what filthy, dirty thoughts Leng Mo harbored inside, Su Muxue always felt an urge to avoid him as much as possible.
And what contributed to Su Muxue’s unease the most was the feeling of being watched ever since she refused Leng Mo’s advances.
Su Muxue was clever, and even without evidence, she suspected those people lurking outside her school were definitely related to Leng Mo.
Why had her gentle, uninterested-in-worldly-affairs Little Uncle, an artist, gotten involved with such a domineering, egotistical man?
It boggled Su Muxue, causing her great pain.
Because her Little Uncle’s actions had severely betrayed her Aunt.
"My aunt must be heartbroken!"
The thought of "He Sitian" made Su Muxue both sad and ashamed.
Before Su Muxue could accept her aunt as a family member, she was certain of her aunt’s deep love for her Little Uncle.
Her aunt might have been a spoiled, willful Eldest Miss, but her heart for her Little Uncle was sincere.
For her Little Uncle, a rich and beauty like her aunt was willing to help take care of a frail Mother-in-law and Su Muxue, a non-blood related niece.
Her aunt might not act like a traditional "good wife," but she was willing to pay and never showed contempt to her husband’s poor relatives, which was enough.
Not to mention her aunt’s recent attention and care for Su Muxue.
Su Muxue had come to regard her aunt as a close family member and, in some ways, felt her Aunt was more considerate than her Little Uncle.
