Chapter 254 Replace
Jiang Yue did not hesitate to inform Fu Jin about Wu Sheng"s warning. Her instincts told her that the person responsible for the scandal was somehow connected to Wu Minxia.
After the call with Jiang Yue, Fu Jin immediately had his subordinates find Wu Minxia. He even used some of their contacts in the underworld to locate her. However, there was already a mysterious gleam in his eyes, as if he had already figured out everything. After this, he asked his PR team to issue a statement that would counter Jiang Mian"s words.
Since it was just in a few hours after the press conference, Jiang Mian"s words were still the current hot topic among the netizens.
"It seems that your plan is a success," said a woman, who was wearing a veil on her head. She was wearing a red sundress that highlighted her pale skin and was seating opposite to Jiang Mian.
"Of course. I made a lot of preparations for this. Let"s see if Fu Jin will still stay with that b*tch, even after I release the video tomorrow." she beamed.
"You are evil." the woman replied.
"So are you." Jiang Mian countered before the duo fell into a puddle of laughter.
Evil? That was just an understatement.
"By the way, how did you know that Jiang Yue will leave that day? I mean... your timing was impeccable." the woman said before sipping a gla.s.s of wine.
Jiang Mian just smirked at her question. "I have my sources." She answered.
"How much sure are you that your plan will work tonight?" the woman asked Jiang Mian.
"A hundred percent sure... hehe... Are you ready for this?" Jiang Mian smiled evilly.
"Of course! I have been waiting for this opportunity for years." the woman said, before removing her veil. "How do I look?" she asked while giving Jiang Mian an eerie smile.
"Exactly like Jiang Yue..." Jiang Mian answered. "So... what should I call you, still Wu Minxia? Or Jiang Yue?"
"You better start calling me Jiang Yue." Wu Minxia answered, before batting her eyelids and giggling at Jiang Mian.
The duo continued to talk, unaware that their plan had already been known by Fu Jin. Of course, Fu Jin did not magically predict everything, instead, he was able to connect everything in his mind. From the current scenario, Fu Jin was able to conclude that someone was trying to replace Jiang Yue and ruin her reputation. So, how would they replace Jiang Yue if she was still alive?
Because of that conclusion, Fu Jin asked Jiang Yue to leave the w.a.n.g Estate and go to a safe house with her grandfather and uncle.
Fu Jin"s reasoning was really simple.
No one aside from Jiang Yue"s close friends knew that she was going to leave B Country. However, someone, who was closely monitoring Jiang Yue, with proper connections would easily know that Jiang Yue had left the country that morning. The timing with the video appearing online was just too perfect for Fu Jin to miss this fact.
When Jiang Yue had already left unannounced, the scandal broke out. Meanwhile, her flight magically did not land on time. If that was not a red flag, then what was it? Fu Jin thought that the one, responsible for the video, must have tampered with Jiang Yue"s flight, cutting their communication in the process.
Then, there was Jiang Mian. Jiang Mian was... well she was there to add fuel to the fire. She wanted to ensure everyone that Jiang Yue was indeed a s.l.u.t. Her words had never denied Jiang Yue"s actions, instead, she apologized for it, like a silent confirmation that Jiang Yue had done all those things.
Fu Jin originally thought that Jiang Mian was just riding on Jiang Yue"s popularity while dragging Jiang Yue"s name down in the process. So, he made sure to prepare a counter-argument, for all of her answers in her interview. However, Jiang Yue informed him about Wu Minxia"a case.
And all of the puzzle pieces just automatically fit inside Fu Jin"s mind. That"s right! Wu Minxia could be the only one, who would have the courage to change her appearance, just to ruin Jiang Yue"s reputation. Of course, this grand scheme was obviously arranged by someone smarter, than both Jiang Mian and Wu Minxia.
Someone like Li Qiang!
Li Qiang must have been aware that Jiang Yue owned Moon Corp, because Wu Minxia or Jiang Mian had informed him. Then, they lured Jiang Yue and Fu Jin to B Country, so they could try and ruin Jiang Yue. Afterward, they would just come and get what they wanted from Fu Conglomerate.
After all, the three of them hated Jiang Yue so much.
However, did they think that Fu Jin would allow any of them to hurt Jiang Yue? They must have been joking, right?
Fu Jin smirked while talking to Jiang Yue, using an encrypted line. The duo was currently planning on how to counter this super complicated plan that Li Qiang had created for them.
The duo might have figured this out now. However, another question was still constantly bugging Jiang Yue and Fu Jin.
What did Li Qiang want? What would he achieve by doing all this?
