Chapter 296: Chen Yuqi Livestreams His Own Exposure
Night concealed Lin Meng's movements.
Although Jing Shi at night was still bustling, lights red and wine green, the higher‑end the residential area, the quieter and fewer people, making it easier for Lin Meng to act.
She avoided well‑lit routes, choosing to block Chen Yuqi on a necessary path, and indeed she waited for him.
Just checking the time, it was already 2 a. m.
The disgraceful Chen Yuqi stumbled out of the business car, having drunk heavily; it seemed he had enjoyed the evening's gathering greatly, and at that moment he was still humming a tune.
After the driver left, Lin Meng flew down on her sword into the nearby greenery, using vegetation to conceal her body.
Seeing Chen Yuqi about to enter the building, Lin Meng immediately shook a nearby branch.
A rustle came from the side, indeed drawing Chen Yuqi's attention.
"Who?!"
He shouted loudly and staggered toward Lin Meng.
Dead drunk, his vision swayed badly, yet he clearly heard the rustling sound, especially piercing in the silent night.
Chen Yuqi narrowed his eyes and stepped closer, soon reaching three meters from Lin Meng.
"Who? Get out here, you bastard!"
Chen Yuqi was extremely arrogant, making a move to undo his belt and urinate.
Lin Meng frowned, without hesitation drew the Soul‑controlling Bell, and gently shook it with her bare hand.
The next second, the clear, melodious bell rang—though it should have been pleasant, it now sounded eerie.
Chen Yuqi, who had been struggling to undo his pants, suddenly stopped, his gaze turning vacant.
At the same time, Lin Meng coldly issued a command to Chen Yuqi.
"In a moment you will go home, open a livestream, confess to the world, reflect on your vile deeds, and make public the filthy things you have done."
Chen Yuqi nodded dully in response: "Yes, Master."
Lin Meng thought a moment and then said:
"After confessing your guilt, you will announce your retirement from the entertainment industry, bear any breach‑of‑contract fees yourself, and settle accounts tomorrow."
"Also, the women you coerced or lured who were still bullied by you against their will—you need not name them, but must protect their privacy."
Chen Yuqi again nodded quickly in response.
Lin Meng took a long breath, waved her hand, and said:
"That's enough, go carry it out—now return to your usual speech and conduct."
As Lin Meng's words fell, Chen Yuqi shuddered, light returned to his hollow eyes, and he became lively and carefree.
He turned and left, keeping Lin Meng's task in mind, and even the alcohol had mostly worn off.
After Lin Meng confirmed Chen Yuqi had reached home, she again flew on her sword to high altitude and then departed.
The next day, the entire entertainment world exploded.
Last night Chen Yuqi went live in the middle of the night, passionately opening the mic, exposing all his accumulated sins over the years with pictures and truth, naming names, and blowing up half the entertainment industry.
Those who had once associated with him or had vested interests with him were also exposed by him.
Even now, Chen Yuqi's phone is being bombarded to the point of falling apart.
His private inbox is piled with lawyer's letters, one after another.
Direct messages and the backends of various social apps have already been flooded with information, and unread messages keep piling up.
Just because of this single operation, the network also became paralyzed.
Nobody expected Chen Yuqi to go live at midnight and expose himself.
Now everyone connected to him is panicking.
Chen Yuqi woke up in a daze, looked at his phone, and was startled.
He calmed down, sorted out his thoughts, recalled last night's events, and soon regained composure.
The task the Master set for him, he of course must carry through to the end.
Regret it? Of course not!
The Master's command overrides all; even if the Master ordered him to die, he would not hesitate to stab himself.
Their fussing is useless; anyway, what he said is basically factual, so even if they send piles of lawyer's letters, it won't help.
At that moment, his manager called.
Chen Yuqi answered, immediately hearing curses from the other end.
"Are you crazy! Didn't I tell you to stay away from alcohol? You damn well got drunk and acted crazy—that's bad enough, but what the hell livestream are you doing, spouting nonsense!"
The manager exploded in anger—Chen Yuqi not only exposed himself but also dragged many others down, including him.
Chen Yuqi spilled the beans on his illegal earnings, which is meant to drive him to death!
The roar of shouting made Chen Yuqi furrow his brow, yet he showed no regret at all.
"Everything I said is factual; your shouting won't change that—none of the things you did are my fabrications."
Upon hearing this, the manager instantly exploded in place.
"No, Chen Yuqi, have you taken the wrong medicine? Do you even know what you're saying!"
Chen Yuqi: "I know—I'm speaking based on facts; even if taken to court, you'd be in the wrong."
"Crazy, crazy, really crazy—Chen Yuqi, tell me the truth: are you being threatened by someone? Or did that dating variety show cause you a huge loss, leaving you to throw caution to the wind?"
Thinking of that dating show, Chen Yuqi felt a sudden pang, his features twisted, but he soon regained composure.
"To be honest, I am indeed angry about the dating show, wishing I could kill them, but I've now figured it out—I just want to change my way of life; you decide for yourselves."
"Every word I say is based on careful thought; no one is forcing or threatening me—I simply want to repent deeply and become a good person again."
After speaking, Chen Yuqi immediately hung up, removed the SIM card, and calmly awaited judgment.
Upon waking, Lin Meng sensed that the Soul‑controlling Bell's hold on Chen Yuqi remained, thinking the effect should last until tonight.
She took out her phone and glanced; last night Chen Yuqi's crazy behavior indeed exploded the whole internet, and now his livestream clips are everywhere.
Those celebrities and bigwigs implicated in his livestream are now frantically issuing statements, some even threatening to sue Chen Yuqi to the end.
Netizens are also busy and fulfilled eating melons; some insider netizens followed clues and have gradually verified that Chen Yuqi's last night's rambling was not nonsense, but he truly can trace back to the source.
For a while, those uninvolved stood aside; those involved with Chen Yuqi were like startled birds, secretly beginning to do damage control.
Another day passed, until late at night Lin Meng discovered that her soul control over Chen Yuqi had not yet failed, and she became somewhat puzzled.
Controlling Xiao Jinzi and Dong Jiaxu also only lasts a day; how come Chen Yuqi is so weak, it's already been two days and still no failure?
Suddenly, Lin Meng realized her cultivation had reached Foundation Establishment level, perhaps this is also related.
Poor Chen Yuqi, these two days he's been stubborn, refusing to speak to anyone who seeks him, insisting that everything he said is true and that he voluntarily exposed these matters.
Everyone thinks he's gone mad, but netizens don't buy it.
Hey, Chen Yuqi has found his conscience, wants to start over as a person, why not let him speak the truth?
Those people he dragged into the water, these two days they truly have murderous intent toward Chen Yuqi...
