Chapter 844: Scam Artists are Not Cute! (12)
When Shi Sheng got home, she was greeted with the rare sight of Yu Sheng.
Since she had arrived, aside from the hospital and that one time at home, this was the first time she’d encountered him in person.
“Xiao’guai, you’re back?” Yu Sheng looked up from a pile of documents.
“Uncle,” Shi Sheng called out softly.
Yu Sheng froze, staring at her for a long moment before responding. “Come over here, Xiao’guai.”
Yu Sheng knew the original host was silent by choice, not inability, so her sudden speech had only struck him as curious.
Shi Sheng walked over and sat down across from him. “Uncle?”
Yu Sheng pushed aside the disordered documents in front of him and asked with concern, “Xiao’guai, what made you decide to speak all of a sudden?”
Shi Sheng smiled faintly. “People grow up, Uncle. Eventually, we have to learn to change. I can’t spend my whole life in silence.”
Yu Sheng nodded, a bit sentimental. “You have grown up.”
When she first arrived, she was just a young child. He hadn’t taken proper care of her over these years.
Reflecting on this, Yu Sheng suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
“Xiao’guai, it’s good that you’re thinking for yourself as you mature, but if anything happens, you still need to talk to me. Uncle is your elder and can help you make decisions.”
“Thank you, Uncle.”
Yu Sheng smiled. “Go back to your room now.”
Shi Sheng nodded slightly, returned to her room, sat on the bed for a while, and took out her phone to log into Weibo.
Incorrect password.
Shi Sheng stared at the error message, feeling perplexed.
She hadn’t changed her password!
She logged in just before…
Fuck! Someone hacked into her account!
‘Which retard dares to hack into my(lz) account!?’
Shi Sheng went to her desk, turned on the computer, and checked her account on the web.
Her Weibo had turned into a clarification post, stating that her account had been hacked.
There was even a picture attached, a triple selfie of Yin Baobao.
She claimed she hadn’t told An Chen, but in fact, she was Chen Yan, causing An Chen to misunderstand.
Shi Sheng: “…”
‘Awesome, this Yin Baobao!’
‘Damn, she dares to hack my account!’
Just as Shi Sheng was preparing to hack her account back, Yin Baobao sent her a text.
[PM] Bu Meng, if you don’t want Yu Sheng’s reputation ruined, you’d better be obedient and listen.
Shi Sheng read the message over and over again, confirming that Yin Baobao was really threatening her.
‘This really is too much.’
Shi Sheng’s fingers swiftly danced across the screen.
[PM] If you have the guts, come at me bro! You dare to ruin his reputation, I dare to ruin your entire family. I’ll leave you destitute and orphaned.
‘Dare to threaten me(lz).’
‘Do you think I’m(lz) that easy to threaten?’
[PM] Talking big won’t help. You can’t compete with me, Bu Meng, just accept it!
[PM] Whether or not I’m talking big, just try me and you’ll find out.
Shi Sheng put down her phone, opened her computer, and pounded on the keyboard, filling the room with the sound of furious clacking.
Her phone kept chiming nonstop with message alerts.
Instead of recovering her account, she went backstage and had it deactivated.
‘You want to use it, right?’
‘Then I’ll(lz) let you use it!’
So when Yin Baobao discovered the situation, she was completely dumbfounded.
She had just received the account not long ago, how did it get deactivated?
Chen Yan’s fans were also bewildered, asking online what was going on.
Yin Baobao had her own Weibo account. The fans who thought Yin Baobao was Chen Yan rushed to her Weibo to seek an explanation.
How could Yin Baobao explain?
Could she say her account was hacked again?
Just as Shi Sheng was finishing up the final steps, suddenly Yú Shēng’s enraged voice echoed from outside the door.
“Xia Ling, haven’t you caused enough trouble?!”
‘Xia Ling?’
‘When did he come over?’
Shi Sheng opened the door and looked outside. Xia Ling was sitting casually on the sofa, and Yu Sheng stood opposite him, looking very angry.
Xia Ling probably noticed Shi Sheng’s gaze and turned his head to glance at her.
After a few seconds, he turned back and said, “I’ll go.”
“You have to go even if you don’t want to…” Yu Sheng shouted, then paused. “What did you say?”
“I said I’ll go.”
Hearing Xia Ling agree, Yu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. “I’m doing this for your own good. You have good potential. Why have you let yourself go like this over the past two years?”
Xia Ling seemed unwilling to listen further, stood up, and walked towards the door.
Yu Sheng shook his head and sighed behind him, a mix of regret and resignation in his eyes.
Taking advantage of Yu Sheng entering the room, Shi Sheng slipped out of the door and found Xia Ling standing outside.
He raised his eyebrows at Shi Sheng, a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if he had anticipated her coming out.
“What did Uncle say to you?”
“He mentioned an event.” Xia Ling took her hand and led her downstairs.
He hadn’t participated in events for a long time, but now he needed to earn money!
“You don’t have to go if you don’t want to.”
Xia Ling stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on the corner where the corridor turned. “But I have to support you.”
He turned back, slightly tilting his head to look at Shi Sheng, who was one step higher, his eyes filled with complexity. “I have nothing. Would you leave me?”
“You still have me.”
The hallway was quiet, with the two of them facing each other, and the motion-sensor light had gone out at some point.
In the darkness, Xia Ling felt the softness on his lips. He reached out and pulled the person close to him, sighing almost in disbelief. “I must be crazy.”
Their passionate kiss left both of them slightly disoriented. Xia Ling’s body, unsteady, took a step back, causing the motion-sensor light to illuminate the area.
Light dispelled the darkness, as well as Xia Ling’s impulsiveness. He held onto Shi Sheng’s waist, tilted his head slightly, and slowed his somewhat labored breathing.
“Feels good, doesn’t it?”
Xia Ling pressed Shi Sheng’s head gently. “Don’t tease.”
Shi Sheng’s voice carried a seductive tone. “Want to do it again?”
“No.” ‘Who does she think she is, making the first move! Hmph!’
After Xia Ling calmed down, he released Shi Sheng and continued walking downstairs with her.
Shi Sheng held his arm. “Where are we going?”
“To drink.” He needed some peace and quiet.
Shi Sheng: “…”
Drinking was almost a daily routine for Xia Ling. During their time together, he often drank. But she had never seen him go as wild as the first time.
While Shi Sheng and Xia Ling were nurturing their relationship, the Yin family was in chaos.
Yin Shijie was preparing to bid on a project when he discovered that the other party knew their bottom line price.
Angered upon learning from the other party that it was his own daughter who leaked the information, Yin Shijie stormed home and without hesitation, beat Yin Baobao.
He also found numerous company documents on her computer.
Yin Shijie was furious beyond words. “I’ve been supporting you with money, and this is how you repay me? Huh? Ungrateful wretch!”
Yin Baobao, relying on her knowledge of the plot, actually harbored ambitions. Moreover, she knew about Yin Shijie’s child outside their family. If she didn’t look out for herself, she might end up with nothing in the future.
But leaking the information was not something she did.
“Dad, I didn’t do this. Someone framed me,” Yin Baobao pleaded with a heart full of grievances, looking genuinely aggrieved as she defended herself.
Yin Shijie grew even angrier. “Not you? Then what about the documents on your computer?”
“I don’t know.” Tears streamed down Yin Baobao’s face. “Dad, please believe me. I really don’t know what happened. My computer is always at home, and I rarely come back. Anyone could have accessed it.”
