"Ouyang Chen, that idiot. He actually thought we'd let him join? Good thing he knows his place, or I'd have killed him too!"
-- End of Audio File --
Ouyang Chen stood there, looking at President Wang in disbelief. President Wang quickly snatched the phone and paused the audio!
The recording contained everything President Wang and Yan Shizong had discussed here!
It was a listening device that Ouyang Chen had installed unnoticed when he first came here. Everything they had talked about during these days was recorded!
President Wang: "Yun Chen, it's not like what you heard."
Ouyang Chen: "I never imagined that after I followed you with all my heart, you would want my life..."
President Wang: "It was Yan Shizong, it was all his idea!"
President Wang finally understood what Yan Shizong meant by "we'll see."
Yan Shizong wanted President Wang to regret being so close to Ouyang Chen. He was going to expose all their crimes, and the one who said they'd kill him was President Wang himself!
Therefore, in President Wang's eyes, no explanation at this moment could make Ouyang Chen believe him.
Losing not only Yan Shizong, a key figure, but also Ouyang Chen, who constantly brought him money, how could that be acceptable!
President Wang had to make a choice now!!!
The out-of-control Yan Shizong had become the biggest threat, while the obedient Ouyang Chen was not only foolish but also rich. Most importantly, without evidence, he posed no harm.
President Wang hardened his heart. Ouyang Chen didn't even know he wouldn't be re-elected anyway. Perhaps Ouyang Chen was counting on his position to secure benefits for himself!
Since it was all about mutual exploitation, who they used didn't matter!
President Wang: "Yun Chen, as long as you listen to me, I won't do anything to you. Look, if I wanted to kill you, would you still be standing here alive? Tell me, wouldn't you?"
Ouyang Chen fearfully shook his head, then nodded quickly as he watched President Wang slowly approach him.
Ouyang Chen: "Then you really won't find someone to kill me?"
President Wang: "Of course! Yan Shizong was afraid that I was too close to you, so he deliberately found someone to send the recording to you! Can't you see that?"
Ouyang Chen: "Sir, what about Yan Shizong? I can't afford to offend both sides. How about you talk to him? I don't want to do online gambling."
President Wang avoided Ouyang Chen's gaze, his eyes darting around. It was not an easy task to keep Ouyang Chen stable while preventing Yan Shizong from causing trouble.
However, Ouyang Chen didn't want President Wang to be in a difficult position. What he wanted was for President Wang to completely sever ties with Yan Shizong!
Since President Wang couldn't make up his mind, he would be forced to take that step!
At this moment, Mrs. Wang ran in with her phone.
The ringing of the phone seemed to echo throughout the Wang household. Everyone was shocked by a trending search!
Mrs. Wang: "Yan Shizong was filmed!!! Look!"
President Wang snatched Mrs. Wang's phone. The trending search was playing the evidence Ouyang Chen had found!
Yan Shizong was undeniably linked to those arsonists!!!
President Wang forced himself to remain calm. As long as Yan Shizong kept his mouth shut, he wouldn't drag the Wang family down, but...
Yan Shizong had to get involved in online gambling at this critical juncture!!!
Ouyang Chen: "President Wang! You mustn't... harm yourself!"
President Wang definitely understood. Ouyang Chen meant to remove this malignant tumor, lest it cause future trouble!
Mrs. Wang: "I knew Yan Shizong would have problems! Look, he's always so ostentatious! How could he be so careless!"
President Wang gave Mrs. Wang a look, and she immediately fell silent. They were like ants on a hot pan!
The more anxious and fearful they appeared, the more satisfied Ouyang Chen felt!
Don't wonder why Ouyang Chen didn't take down the Wang family with him. Revenge, after all, is a dish best served cold, but timing is everything.
President Wang: "Yun Chen, you should go first. I have other matters to attend to."
Ouyang Chen: "Okay, okay."
Ouyang Chen left the Wang residence, but he didn't notice that Wang Ziran had seen everything in the room from the shadows.
***
As expected, Yan Shizong was called in for questioning the next day.
However, Ouyang Chen didn't expect this villain to confess. If he could be brought down so easily, he wouldn't be the emperor of the entertainment industry.
But what Ouyang Chen didn't expect was that someone else would come knocking on his door.
Ouyang Chen looked at Wang Ziran, who was sitting opposite him. He couldn't understand what matter President Wang needed to convey.
Wang Ziran: "Yan Shizong's incident was your doing, wasn't it?"
Ouyang Chen: "Young Master Wang, I don't understand what you're saying."
Wang Ziran: "You were the one who put that video evidence online, right?"
Ouyang Chen: "I don't have that kind of capability..."
Ouyang Chen took a sip of his coffee, smiled at Wang Ziran, and gestured for him to try the civet coffee as well.
Wang Ziran: "You deliberately tried to provoke my father and Yan Shizong."
Ouyang Chen: "How is that possible? We, President Wang, and Yan Shizong have reconciled. We've been drinking together these days, and it's been so much fun."
Wang Ziran: "Enemies are always enemies. Your interests are always opposed to ours. Based on this alone, you will never truly be our friend."
Ouyang Chen: "Young Master Wang, I've already endured your humiliation so many times. If I wanted to resist, why would I still be by your father's side?"
Wang Ziran: "Because bringing down Yan Shizong is not your ultimate goal."
Ouyang Chen smiled without saying a word, thinking that Wang Ziran was quite perceptive. He could see through everything.
Wang Ziran: "However, I advise you to stop here. Don't think about continuing."
Ouyang Chen: "Young Master Wang, I pose no threat to your Wang family. Look, Yan Shizong made such a big mistake, and yet he's still in the detention center because he won't confess?"
Wang Ziran: "He wants my father to save him."
Ouyang Chen: "Then save him. Without Yan Shizong, it actually feels a bit less interesting."
Wang Ziran suddenly leaned forward and whispered, "Give up on avenging Fan Zhijie. If you continue like this, you'll drag Su Ruiyi into it too!"
Ouyang Chen: "Listen to me carefully, kid! I don't care who gets dragged into this. I only care that those who make mistakes are punished!"
Wang Ziran: "Heh, you don't love her at all."
Ouyang Chen: "..."
Wang Ziran stood up, glanced at Ouyang Chen, who was sitting there with his legs crossed, and left in anger.
Ouyang Chen remained motionless. He had long known that this would eventually expose Su Ruiyi's scheme to frame Fan Jiajia.
Su Ruiyi was innocent. The fault lay with the case being handled too perfectly. The only way to escape was to find a scapegoat, and thus, Fan Jiajia appeared.
For example, Su Ruiyi disembarked the plane with empty hands. When she exited the airport, a stranger carrying several suitcases asked Su Ruiyi for help carrying one to lighten the load.
Su Ruiyi kindly agreed, only to find out the suitcase contained contraband.
Well, Su Ruiyi was caught. She couldn't clear her name because she had indeed touched the suitcase.
At this point, Fan Jiajia appeared. She had a suitcase of the same model and color as the one Su Ruiyi had touched, so identical that no one could tell them apart without opening them.
Therefore, Su Ruiyi claimed she thought it was Fan Jiajia's suitcase and helped carry it, and the two happened to know each other.
A very reasonable explanation, and Su Ruiyi successfully escaped!
In order to quickly close the case, it didn't matter whose suitcase it was. What mattered was that the contents of the suitcase were illegal.
If the true owner of the suitcase couldn't be found, then whoever possessed a similar suitcase would have to take the blame.
***
After hearing all this, doesn't it seem like a trivial matter? As long as the explanation is clear, it should be fine?
But at that time, the Su family did not want Su Ruiyi to remain entangled in such a case.
The young lady of the Su Corporation should not have a criminal record!
This would ruin the entire group!!!
