Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Event Reversal_1

"Shen Dong isn’t just the boss of Dongyan Guild; he’s also the owner of Shuidilao."

"He sexually manipulates the female streamers of his guild, and this will also affect Shuidilao."

"Customers knowing what kind of person Shen Dong is, I’m afraid many would be reluctant to spend their money at Shuidilao."

"As long as Shuidilao’s business is down, there will still be plenty of people willing to patronize Xingwang Hotpot."

"What do you say, is there still hope for Xingwang Hotpot?"

Dong Qikang’s face flushed with excitement.

This news had come at just the right time.

The boss had told him that if he couldn’t turn Xingwang Hotpot’s fortunes around, the restaurant would close after the New Year.

He really had no other options.

Now, with Shen Dong in trouble, it would definitely ripple to Shuidilao.

Without business at Shuidilao, Xingwang Hotpot would thrive once again.

"That’s right, it seems like heaven itself wants to destroy Shen Dong," Zhang Bo said, his face showing his excitement upon hearing his father’s words.

If business at Xingwang Hotpot improved, his father could regain his footing in the company, and he himself would have a chance.

"I think Shen Dong wouldn’t do such a thing. Someone must be setting him up. It must be because Dongyan Guild and Shuidilao are doing so well, they’ve stepped on some powerful toes who want to bring him down," Dong Qikang analyzed.

As an old fox of the corporate world, he quickly identified the crux of the issue.

"Is it really impossible that he would want to exploit this female streamer?" Zhang Bo asked, puzzled.

"Shen Dong’s Dongyan Guild has plenty of pretty streamers; if he wanted to exploit someone, it surely wouldn’t be her," Dong Qikang replied with an eye-roll.

"True, if he were to exploit someone, he would choose the more beautiful ones," Zhang Bo nodded in agreement.

"So, someone must be using Song Qianqian as a tool to bring down Shen Dong," Dong Qikang said with a laugh.

"Dad, it’s New Year’s today, and such good fortune has come our way; let’s have a proper drink to celebrate," Dong Junjie said, even more delighted.

"Yes, we must celebrate. I didn’t want to bring out my reserve Wuliangye, but with such good news, let’s drink it," Dong Qikang replied, nodding and laughing.

Chen Yuting, who was helping in the kitchen, would occasionally check her phone and furrowed her brows slightly upon seeing the video.

She then excused herself to her mother and returned to her room, locking the door.

Next, she dialed Liu Chao’s phone number.

"Liu Chao, is the video released by Song Qianqian at your behest?" Chen Yuting asked directly.

She didn’t believe for a second that Shen Dong would sexually manipulate Song Qianqian.

Shen Dong just wasn’t that type of person.

Clearly, Shen Dong was being framed.

As for who was behind it, she knew Liu Chao had always been poaching streamers from Dongyan Guild, so she suspected Liu Chao might have instigated Song Qianqian to do this.

"Yes," Liu Chao admitted with a chuckle.

"Liu Chao, you’re so despicable. Even if you want to compete with Shen Dong, you shouldn’t use such methods," said Chen Yuting, who was disgusted by Liu Chao’s tactics against Shen Dong.

"Yuting, you’re too kind. Such acts are quite normal in the business world. Business is like a battlefield, after all," he replied.

"The Huya Guild might be severely affected if Dongyan Guild continues to do well. As the deputy leader of Huya Guild, you wouldn’t want to see that, right?"

Liu Chao looked every bit the business elite.

Hearing this, Chen Yuting found herself at a loss for words.

Liu Chao continued, "Yuting, I knew you wouldn’t agree with these tactics, which is why I didn’t tell you. What I’ve done is just common practice for many big shots in the business field; it’s nothing strange. You’ll understand in time that the business world isn’t as simple as you think. The higher you climb, the more despicable the people become. You’ll find that methods like mine are actually quite trivial."

...

In Fu County, the home of Shen Dong.

Shen Dong compiled the images, recordings, and videos he found into one document.

Chen Yuyan and others had seen these things.

They were furious at Song Qianqian’s shamelessness and astounded by Shen Dong’s methods.

These methods, which could dig up such private matters, were simply against the natural order.

"Cousin, your skills are definitely top-notch hacking. I’ve realized you know more and more, and from now on, my idol won’t be any celebrity, but you!" Zhang Lele exclaimed excitedly.

Unexpectedly, her cousin had such formidable hacking skills.

Whoever wanted to mess with him wouldn’t even know how they died.

Shen Dong smiled, ignored Zhang Lele, and sent the file to Wang Jingpeng with a message asking him to make it public.

Soon, Doule’s trending searches showed the Dongyan Guild’s legal notice, accompanied by various pieces of evidence.

Everyone was sympathizing with Song Qianqian and condemning Shen Dong, not expecting the plot to turn like this.

It turned out that Song Qianqian’s accusations were completely false, mere slander.

Song Qianqian was directed by the executives and behind-the-scenes major shareholders of the Huya Guild, aiming to take down Shen Dong.

Now, the direction of public opinion shifted immediately, and people started denouncing Song Qianqian and the Huya Guild.

Seeing the Dongyan Guild’s legal notice and various evidence, Song Qianqian’s face turned deathly pale.

Doomed!

At that moment, all of her previous efforts were in vain.

In the future, no one would be willing to sign with her, and she would say goodbye to the live streaming circle, facing legal sanctions as well.

The Dongyan Guild had said they would hold her legally responsible.

Yet, she couldn’t fathom how these things had fallen into the hands of the Dongyan Guild.

Liu Chao was just as perplexed.

Liu Chao had been complacent, thinking this was his masterstroke and that he could replicate this tactic to deal with other guilds in the future.

However, when he saw that evidence, he was completely dumbfounded.

He should know that he had personally planned this whole affair.

He had operated behind the scenes and had been extremely cautious in his contact with the guild’s executives.

He was confident that even if the police were involved, they wouldn’t be able to trace it back to him or find any evidence.

But now the Dongyan Guild had somehow found evidence of his involvement.

It was damn eerie.

Of course, he was unaware of how formidable it was to have hacking skills honed to a divine level.

No matter how careful he was, there would always be some traces left online.

With those traces, Shen Dong could find him, the source.

Now, Liu Chao’s expression was extremely ugly.

He had thought that this time, he could bring Shen Dong down and collapse the Dongyan Guild at one stroke.

Instead, he faced backlash.

This matter concerned not only the Huya Guild but would also implicate Wansheng Venture Capital.

Wansheng Venture Capital was the largest shareholder of the Huya Guild.

With so much evidence in his hands, Shen Dong could totally launch a counter-offensive.

In the face of irrefutable evidence, he was utterly defenseless and could only let Shen Dong do as he pleased.

He guessed correctly; Shen Dong had no intention of letting him off so easily, nor the Huya Guild or Wansheng Venture Capital.

The Dongyan Guild’s legal department was preparing materials to sue Song Qianqian, the Huya Guild, and Wansheng Venture Capital.
