Chapter 2128: Seize This Opportunity

~7 min read 1,288 words

"How would I know? You should find the person who wrote the letter and go ask them!"

Jiang Mobai's tone was very irritable.

But just as he finished speaking, he thought of something.

He even started asking the reporter: "You guys finding someone shouldn't be a problem. So, can you find out who the whistleblower is?"

The reporter heard this, smiled, and did not respond.

And this expression of his was too much like he was watching a play.

Jiang Mobai couldn't help but frown: "So, you still don't believe me, do you!"

"Of course I believe you."

The reporter kept saying he believed him.

The next second, he started asking: "When Qingkong was interviewed, he showed everyone the photos he took of you, which suggests the relationship between the two of you should be pretty good. But that's just on the surface; in reality, have you two had any conflicts?"

Facing the reporter's probing, Jiang Mobai did not speak either.

He stood up and left.

"Hey, the interview isn't over yet, Mr. Jiang?"

The reporter's call did not hold Jiang Mobai back.

He acted as if he hadn't heard it and left without looking back.

When Jiang Mobai sat back in the car, he took out the anonymous letter to look at it again.

Then, the more he looked, the more irritable he became, and in the end, he crumpled the letter into a ball!

But after a while, he felt it was strange.

When he left, he had clearly put the letter in the drawer.

How did the letter end up in his pocket?

The more Jiang Mobai thought about it, the more wrong it felt.

When he returned home, he immediately went to his room to search.

He saw a letter lying right there in the drawer!

Seeing this scene, Jiang Mobai only felt his mind go blank...

By the time he regained consciousness, he discovered he had already taken the letter out.

After unfolding it...

The content on the letter had completely disappeared!!

What is going on!?

Jiang Mobai held onto the chair and slowly sat down.

He clasped his hands together, placed them under his chin, and tried hard to get his chaotic brain working again.

Very quickly, Jiang Mobai confirmed one thing: he had been set up!

As for who...

Jiang Mobai rubbed his hair hard and then hurried to Qingkong's apartment.

Qingkong was very surprised by Jiang Mobai's appearance.

He even asked: "No reporters following you?"

"Huh? Why would reporters follow me?"

"You've become a hero on the internet; everyone knows you are the one who leaked the dirt on me anonymously."

The development of events once again exceeded Jiang Mobai's expectations.

The expression on his face was also colorful.

After cursing fiercely, Jiang Mobai gritted his teeth and said to Qingkong: "I didn't leak your dirt!"

"Mm, I know."

"You... really know, and really believe me?"

"Of course, if I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have let you through this door."

Qingkong's trust made Jiang Mobai feel that things weren't entirely terrible.

He also calmed down a little.

After catching his breath, he asked: "Then do you know who did it?"

Qingkong shook his head and said: "We previously speculated it was done by someone jealous of my progress. But such a person would never dare to provoke your Li Family."

"So you think someone is using you to suppress me?"

"That's right."

Jiang Mobai's eyes rolled slightly, and he gave the completely opposite answer: "The incident was exposed; what negative impact would it have on me? So, the other party is still targeting you, and I am just being implicated!"

"Hey, there's no point in talking about who is implicating whom now."

This...

Is also true.

Now they need to find clues as quickly as possible, rather than quibbling over small things.

And these clues...

Jiang Mobai frowned tightly and muttered: "The reporter is suspicious, the model is suspicious, and there's the eerie anonymous letter... This really is a huge web!"

Qingkong followed up by saying: "That's why, for small fish like me, it's overkill; it feels like it's still aimed at you."

Once Jiang Mobai heard this, he immediately frowned and reminded him: "Didn't you say there's no point in talking about who is implicating whom?"

"But one still needs to make the correct judgment."

Really...

He said everything that needed to be said!

Jiang Mobai was too angry to let it go and wanted to retort.

But at this moment, someone knocked on the door.

The knocking was quite urgent, which made Jiang Mobai feel a bit panicked.

Seeing Qingkong about to open the door, he hurriedly said, "Check and make sure it's not a reporter outside."

"Mm."

Qingkong replied and walked to the door.

Yet he didn't check at all and opened the door directly.

This infuriated Jiang Mobai, who opened his mouth and cursed, "You f***ing..."

The curse was only half-spoken.

The other half was automatically silenced the moment Jiang Mobai saw Su Kexuan.

Su Kexuan could have returned earlier.

But on the way back from the factory, her car broke down.

Since she was in the suburbs, it took her quite a while to find Qingkong.

She hadn't expected to see Jiang Mobai the moment she walked in.

And, it seemed Jiang Mobai was in the middle of cursing someone?

Su Kexuan immediately asked, "Why are you here?"

"I..."

Just as Jiang Mobai was about to answer, he felt a figure rush over.

The next second, his collar was grabbed by Qingkong!

This sudden turn of events stunned the other two people in the room.

Jiang Mobai even had a look of confusion on his face.

In his daze, he heard Qingkong mutter in a low voice, "Idiot, I'm helping you; seize the opportunity!"

What opportunity?

What was this madman talking about?

On Su Kexuan's side, she had already reacted.

She hurried over, separated the two of them, and said loudly to Qingkong, "Calm down!"

Qingkong instantly got into character.

He shouted with a pained expression, "I can't calm down! My career has only just begun, but because of his schemes and tricks, I've become a social pariah!"

Su Kexuan already knew about Jiang Mobai's identity as the "anonymous whistleblower."

But she didn't believe it at all.

She said resolutely, "The exposure could not have been done by him!"

"How could it not? The photos have already been exposed. Su Kexuan, you can't defend him just because he's your friend!"

"A few photos, what kind of evidence is that? I believe in his character!"

As Su Kexuan's firm words fell, the room suddenly went quiet.

And Jiang Mobai gradually understood what Qingkong meant.

But after understanding, he became even more confused.

This person... doesn't care at all that his own reputation is being affected?

Even at a time like this, he's still thinking about watching gossip and joining in the excitement!

It's simply unbelievable.

And what made him find it even more unbelievable was...

Su Kexuan actually trusted him this much?

At this moment, Jiang Mobai no longer felt annoyed; instead, he felt a softness in his heart.

Su Kexuan had no time to concern herself with the state of Jiang Mobai behind her.

She spoke firmly once more, "Although Jiang Mobai is a jerk, he wouldn't do something like this; someone must be framing him!"

Hmm...

Jiang Mobai felt that this addition didn't really need to be said.

Qingkong, however, questioned her based on Su Kexuan's words, "Didn't you always speak ill of him? Why are you speaking well of him now?"

Jiang Mobai became anxious the moment he heard this.

He hurriedly asked Su Kexuan, "Ah, you've spoken ill of me?"
