âFound it.â The person rummaging through the bag quickly located a USB drive, inserted it into the phone, and handed everything, including the USB drive, to her.
Rong Yan reached out to take it, her curiosity piqued, âWhat is this?â
âYouâll know once you take a look,â Gu Linxi said with an enigmatic smile.
This was what sheâd discovered while hacking into the backend of a WeChat public account that was churning out hit pieces on Rong Yan. She had casually decrypted and copied the file, not expecting its contents to be so âspectacularâ. Rong Yan was going to love it!
Rong Yan took the phone, looked through the contents she was referring to, and then with eyes shining brightly, she looked up and ruffled the hair of the person beside her, âXixi, where did you get this? I love you to death! Youâve really helped me out a lot!â
Gu Linxiâs hair was all messed up from the ruffling, and she reluctantly pulled away, pressing her forehead against the excited Rong Yanâs, âStop it, donât forget about the injuries on your body, youâll suffer if the wounds reopen.â
Rong Yan let go and tried her best to calm down, her emotions still running high, her bright, black-and-white eyes glittering as she asked excitedly, âWhere did you get this? I was just thinking about how to strike back, and then you gave this to me.â
âHacked it from the internet; it should be something a paparazzi captured and hadnât sold yet before I hacked it,â Gu Linxi explained.
Gu Linxi might not have striking looks, but she possessed a gentle temperament, the kind that grew on you the more you looked at her. She might appear meek, but in reality, she was a genuine hacker prodigy.
âI thought it might come in handy for you. So, is it useful?â she asked.
Gathering the USB drive, Rong Yan confirmed confidently, âUseful, indeed! Not just useful, Iâve also thought of a great way to shake off the smear against me this time.â
It wasnât until she saw the video provided by Gu Linxi that she came up with a great idea to turn the tide of public opinion in her favor, while at the same time giving Rong Weiwei a good slap in the face!
âWhatâs the idea?â Gu Linxi, who had simply thought the video would be helpful but didnât know its connection to the current scandal, inquired.
âA good one. But I need one more favor from you,â Rong Yan said while securing the USB drive.
With bright, shrewd eyes, Rong Yan leaned in close to Gu Linxiâs ear and whispered her request for help.
After listening, Gu Linxiâs frown deepened, and she expressed her disapproval, âThat idea wonât work; itâll be easily exposed. Once discovered, Rong Weiwei will certainly buy some hot search spots and slander you even more. Then youâll really struggle to get by in the entertainment industry. Donât you enjoy playing music?â
Rong Yanâs lips curled into a confident smile, âI wonât allow Rong Weiwei to triumph a second time, nor will I gamble with my career. Trust me this once, Xixi.â
She aspired for more than just doing what Nick had suggestedâposting statements online and secretly reconciling with HuanYu. She wanted to make sure Rong Weiwei understood that she wasnât going to let her get away with it as easily as she had in the past!
Seeing the firm expression on Rong Yanâs face, not seeming like a rush of blood to the head, Gu Linxi, despite her furrowed brow, agreed, âIâll send you the stuff later tonight.â
âCan it be before tomorrow?â The online sentiment was becoming increasingly unfavorable for her; she needed to resolve the crisis quickly.
Gu Linxi raised her wrist, glanced at her watch, and said with a nod, âSure. Iâll work on it before I sleep tonight and send it to you.â
A weight seemed to lift from Rong Yanâs spirit with that assurance. Just as she was about to thank Gu Linxi, her phone suddenly rang..
