Chapter 69: The Scam Has Reached the Grandmaster

From this sentence.

Wang Yue had already obtained the information she needed.

Just as she had previously inferred.

Yang Jingxuan is the mistress Xu Mo keeps outside while hiding it from his wife.

And it can be deduced from the place they live.

Xu Mo is undoubtedly very afraid of his wife finding out about his keeping a mistress abroad.

Wang Yue felt a surge of joy.

The rich can't stand a compromising leverage— is that a leverage?

No, it's not.

It's a Money Tree!

The next second, the two people's conversation in the room again traveled through the poorly soundproofed wall panels.

"Aren't I here to keep you company?"

"Is that so? Seeing each other once a week, and sneaking around— you call that keeping me company?"

"Stop messing around, okay? I have a home, I have a wife and children, I really can't find the time. Besides, I give you two million a month as pocket money— aren't you satisfied? If you're teasing me, it's because the money's run out, right?"

"Hmm… I've recently set my eye on a car, just a little over five million. If you buy it for me, I'll forgive you."

"Alright, alright, I'll buy it, I'll buy it for you— you're such an ancestor, now you won't be angry, right?"

"Hmph, let's see your performance!"

"Then I… should I perform well for you right now?"

…

Live Broadcast Room.

"What are the two of them doing? Acting?"

"6666, they're acting as a mistress, keep it up, show some performance— what's after the performance? Nothing? That's it? I'm losing out on this traffic?"

"You really shouldn't say that, Yang Jingxuan's acting is impressive— she portrays the mistress's unreasonable tantrums and money‑greedy eyes so vividly, hahahaha."

"The two were just muttering about the game they're playing— is this it? Yet I still don't get it, what are they after by acting this out?"

"Let me hypothesize: Xu Mo just now heard the sound of high heels, guessed that the female con artist was coming, which prompted Yang Jingxuan to start acting. The acting is meant to make the con artist think they can be deceived— it's a trap for the con artist, he wants to trick the con artist."

…

"Dong dong dong."

The knocking sounded.

There was no Cat Eye on the door.

"Who is it?" Xu Mo asked.

In his words, that hint of panic and unease was handled by Xu Mo just right.

Wang Yue answered with a smile: "It's me, the one we met on the stairs earlier."

Xu Mo opened the door with a bewildered expression.

"You…"

Wang Yue handed Xu Mo's phone forward and said.

"Your phone fell off when you went downstairs by accident. At first I thought it was mine, but just now realized it wasn't, asked the boss for your room number, and brought it back to you."

"My phone?" Xu Mo frowned slightly, instinctively reaching into his pocket.

"Eh? It does seem to have fallen."

He casually took the phone Wang Yue handed over.

He lit up the screen, glanced, and after confirming it was his phone,

hurriedly said thanks to Wang Yue, "Thank you, thank you."

Wang Yue smiled.

"You're welcome."

The next second, Xu Mo's expression turned odd, and he stared at Wang Yue hesitantly: "Were you... standing outside the door the whole time?"

"No," Wang Yue denied. "I just came over, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing... it's nothing, I just asked casually, don't take it to heart."

Having said that, saying more would expose the ruse.

Wang Yue also pretended not to know anything, gave a considerate "oh" and turned away.

In reality, both harbored their own ulterior motives.

Wang Yue left 306 and returned to her own room.

She carefully recalled what had just happened.

Xu Mo's behavior was completely normal.

What he displayed was precisely the image of someone having an affair and being extremely afraid of being discovered.

Moreover, from their conversation, Wang Yue could easily see.

That Xu Mo truly is a wealthy master.

He spends two million a month just to keep a mistress.

Wang Yue had no doubt about this.

Because Yang Jingxuan's entire outfit is not something an ordinary person could afford.

That expensive attire matches the two‑million‑a‑month pocket money.

Wang Yue took out her phone and dialed a number.

"Confirmed, it's a big fish, cheating on his wife and keeping a mistress outside; this fish should be able to extort a lot of money, let the brothers prepare to start work, finish this job and then run away."

……

Room 306.

Xu Mo sat on the bed, a smile on his face.

"Should be on the hook now."

Yang Jingxuan wore a look of confusion.

"What do you mean 'on the hook'? The part you had me act out just now was to perform for that woman? What are you trying to do?"

Xu Mo only told her to cooperate in acting out a scene.

He said nothing else at all.

If it weren't for the big meal, Yang Jingxuan would never have cooperated with Xu Mo.

"Didn't I just say that?" Xu Mo said calmly, "She is a scammer; that's not the main point. The main point is, if I'm not mistaken, she has set her sights on me, she wants to swindle my money."

Xu Mo spread his hands.

"Scamming others is one thing, but she wants to swindle my money!? Isn't that a joke? I have to give her a lesson."

Yang Jingxuan: "……"

When Xu Mo said that, she understood.

"So, you realize that the scammer wants to swindle your money, but you don't want to be swindled by her, and you plan to swindle the scammer's money?"

"\"What swindle? Your words sound so harsh, \" Xu Mo corrected Yang Jingxuan, \"I call it eliminating a menace for the people! \""

Yang Jingxuan thought to herself, isn't that the same meaning?

"Aren't you still planning to swindle the scammer's money?"

The Water Friends in the Live Broadcast Room suddenly realized.

Although Xu Mo said that the woman was off and a scammer.

But most people didn't think in that direction at all.

"What about that prophet earlier? Cut, cut, let him claim it was accurate, Xu Mo really wants the scammer's money."

"How dare this scammer... she still wants to swindle Xu Mo?"

"Scamming others is one thing, but to swindle the Grandmaster himself, are you courting death?"

"I have a feeling this scammer is going to be finished; even the Grandmaster dares to be swindled, hahaha..."

"Xu Mo, go for it, squeeze this scammer dry, not a drop left!"

"The scammer probably is still smug now, not knowing that the trap she set for Xu Mo has already been turned by Xu Mo and placed around her neck."

……

Meanwhile.

Outside the guesthouse.

Team One plainclothes police officers were crouching outside, watching the Mercedes at the guesthouse entrance.

"What does it mean that the woman got into the car and then got out and went back? Did she discover us?"

"Impossible, it's that far away, we're still in plainclothes, she wouldn't recognize us."

However, just as they were discussing whether their movements had been exposed,

In the back seat of the car, a comrade from the Technical Team intercepted a segment of Wang Yue's call record.

"Confirmed, it's a big fish, cheating on his wife and keeping a mistress outside; this fish should be able to extort a lot of money, let the brothers prepare to start work, finish this job and then run away."

Hearing that, the three plainclothes officers in the car exchanged glances.

The other side may make a move soon!

"And this, just happens to be the perfect opportunity to capture the Scam Gang in one net!"
