After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 92: Interlocking Links

An Siqi still didn’t know that every thought and move she made was under Shi Yaoguang’s watchful eye.

Even how to deal with her had been all figured out by Shi Yaoguang.

After paying the compensation, she waited another two days.

She had thought that the live streaming company would release the compromising material as soon as they got their hands on it, to increase the company’s traffic.

Who would have known, two days passed without a peep.

Frustrated, she went to the live streaming company, wanting to get some answers.

Only when she got there did she find out that the company had unexpectedly shut down.

She opened the live streaming app, and it too had crashed.

...

It wasn’t just An Siqi who wanted Shi Yaoguang to fall from grace.

Shi Yiqing had spent eighty million, and by now, she was also getting impatient.

"An Siqi, didn’t you say that if I gave you eighty million, you would make Shi Yaoguang’s reputation crumble? You’ve spent all the eighty million, and Shi Yaoguang is still fine. Don’t you have anything to say for yourself?"

Confronted with such questioning, An Siqi also felt somewhat embarrassed, "I already gave the compromising material to the live streaming company. Who knew they would be so incompetent as to just go out of business?"

"Out of business?" Shi Yiqing was surprised to hear this.

An Siqi nodded, "I only found out after asking an old friend. The day after I paid them, the company closed its doors and even compensated its employees with severance pay."

What she didn’t mention was that she suspected the eighty million she gave them was used to fund the severance pay.

Even without her saying it, it changed nothing.

Shi Yiqing, with an enraged expression, said, "I don’t care how you do it, but if you can’t fulfill the promise you made, the eighty million you took from me, I’ll make sure you spit it all out!"

An Siqi’s face turned pale but then, thinking of something, she relaxed, "Don’t worry. Even though the live streaming company has gone under, I still have a backup of the material. I’ll make sure she can’t turn things around!"

Shi Yiqing glanced at her, "You’d better do as you say."

...

An Siqi, having been threatened by Shi Yiqing and unable to contain her anger, went home that day and made a PPT.

The content of the PPT was all about marketing tactics to ruin Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang, having implanted a virus on her computer, saw her entire plan crystal clear.

He thought deeply as he looked at the several strategies she had listed.

An Siqi had compiled so-called "junior high scandals" and the "pre-engagement affair" photos that had been leaked previously.

She planned to use these to label Yaoguang as a promiscuous woman with a chaotic private life.

Then, expose her discord with the Shi Family, claiming that because of her behavior, she had been kicked out of the Shi Family’s home.

Finally, pin the blame for the accident in the live streaming room on her.

This framing was convincing and well-argued.

She released a few photos of the jewelry and expensive clothes that the Shi Family had given Yaoguang as compensation when they first took her back, claiming them to be recent photos.

Before being received by the Shi Family, she was nothing more than a village girl from the countryside.

Money?

Definitely not!

And now, having been cast out by the Shi Family, she still had money to spend; where could it have come from?

There was no need to launder this; it was solid to direct the source of her income to Xiaoqi’s live streaming room.

Once everything blew up, An Siqi could even take the opportunity to clear her own name.

Claiming she too was a poor soul deceived and taken advantage of. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

She slaved away on live streams, earning a meager salary of two thousand five hundred a month.

All other earnings had been taken by Shi Yaoguang.

By that time, An Siqi was not the least bit worried that she would be suspected.

Even if the issue of bank statements came up, she could find excuses to defend herself.

With so much money in Shi Yaoguang’s hands, wouldn’t it be easy for her to launder her own reputation?

She was a weak, pitiful, helpless victim who had been deceived by a treacherous best friend.

And so everything was linked together.

Not only could she achieve the goal of seeing Shi Yaoguang utterly disgraced, but also conveniently whitewash herself.

It was more than killing two birds with one stone.

Shi Yaoguang watched as she saved the completed PowerPoint, a dark glint flashing through her eyes.

If everything was already planned out by her, then...

She might as well go with the flow.

After all, it wouldn’t be fair to let her hard work be in vain.

An Siqi closed her laptop and let out a big sneeze.

She rubbed her nose and muttered, "Who’s cursing me behind my back?"

Without giving it much thought, she took a shower, got into bed, and delightfully fell asleep.

The next day.

An Siqi showed her PowerPoint to Shi Yiqing, "I’ve got the plan all set, just short of the marketing."

The way she said it, it was almost as if she was extending her hand out for money directly.

Shi Yiqing’s face soured as she listened to such an obvious hint.

"What money are you asking me for?"

"Shouldn’t I be asking you for money?"

An Siqi said with a sense of righteousness, "Ruining Shi Yaoguang is just me blowing off steam, but the benefits you’ll receive are tangible."

"You can’t expect me to pay out of my own pocket for work that ultimately benefits you, can you?"

After some thought, Shi Yiqing resentfully handed over the money.

"I can give you money, but I have one condition."

An Siqi was inwardly on alert, "What condition?"

"You have to execute the plan yourself."

Even in front of An Siqi, Shi Yiqing, who had revealed her true nature, wasn’t willing to get involved in these matters.

If things were exposed, it would be difficult for her to disassociate herself from the situation.

An Siqi understood her thinking, and it didn’t bother her.

After all, they were all in the same boat. If one day the truth came out, Shi Yiqing wouldn’t end up in a better situation either!

Having received the money from Shi Yiqing, An Siqi began contacting marketing accounts, ready to make a big move.

In the meantime, Shi Yaoguang had restructured the live broadcasting company she had purchased.

She revamped the entire company, abandoned the original live streaming app, and designed a new one called Star Live Streaming.

What a coincidence.

Just as her live streaming company started up, An Siqi got in touch with the company’s PR, wanting to hand over her dirt on Shi Yaoguang for free, as long as they released it to gain view counts—a win-win deal.

Without responding immediately, the PR consulted Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang instructed them to accept half of the job, which was to blacken Shi Yaoguang by hiring An Siqi at a monthly salary of 2500 to live stream selling counterfeit goods.

As for things like Yan_Zhao, they said that with the recent internet clean-up, they were also afraid of being checked.

An Siqi, disappointed, had no choice but to accept.

Star Live Streaming refused to release Yan_Zhao smearing Shi Yaoguang, so An Siqi turned to several Weibo influencers, those who didn’t have very good reputations.

Such marketing accounts would take on any kind of job and their prices were fair.

An Siqi felt that this was her best choice.

She made an immediate decision, and even purchased several trending search slots.

...

Under the trending searches, Yan_Zhao_Gate exploded overnight.

Ruihe High School students who were browsing Weibo noticed it too.

They even carried the Weibo post over to the school forum and class group chats—Shi Yaoguang was completely on fire!
