“When you helped Luo Ying get rid of a minor celebrity, I didn’t think we’d trail it all the way back to
Lu Wen.” Sirius waited for Lu Zhao outside the interrogation room, leaning against the wall.
He had personally investigated on Zheng Ying. He had not expected it to be related to Lu Wen.
“Do you believe this to be a mere coincidence?” Lu Zhao walked out quickly, his face solemn. “Scour.
Look into everyone around Luo Ying.”
It came as a surprise to him that he had overlooked such a potentially harmful element in Luo Yings environment.
“All right, I’ll look into it thoroughly.” Luo Ying had long been the focus of Lu Zhao’s attention.
In this case, Lu Wen had reached out to Luo Ying, so Lu Zhao would not let him off so easily.
“Tomorrow, urge the Ministry of Commerce to launch an anti-dumping investigation,” Lu Zhao said decisively.
“You’re finally going to close the net on Lu Wen’s side.” Sirius’ eyebrows shot up in surprise.
Lu Wen’s enterprise was the focus of their efforts for the previous six months. The previous trap they had laid out was only the beginning.
Lu Wen’s firm was snared in a project trap and needed to make up for lost revenue quickly. Any action of consequence would trigger an anti-dumping probe by the Ministry of Commerce. Lu Wen’s international market would take a major hit once anti-dumping measures were put into effect.
“Should we look into what he and Jin Liu are up to in the biological research field?” Sirius asked.
All of them had a pretty good idea of what motivated Lu Wen to put money into this venture. It was to find the antidote for Nancy.
“Investigate. Turn over the drug leads to the authorities and connect them to the biological research.”
Lu Zhao instructed as he walked out. Lu Wen’s hardships were of no concern to him.
Sirius shrugged. He did not feel any pity for Lu Wen.
It was difficult for them to uncover drug-related leads, but the authorities would see through any smoke and mirrors. Lu Wen’s project would be doomed if drugs were involved.
They got back to the car quickly and started slowly pulling away into the night. Zheng Ying’s situation was still ongoing the following day. The public was outraged by Zheng Yings framing of Luo Ying and discussing the news of her drug use. More and more experts came forward to confirm that Zheng Yings recording was phony.
[How did Zheng Ying turn out this way?]
[Where have all of Zheng Yings ecstatic supporters disappeared to? Come out and apologize.]
[Sister Ying is so miserable. Zheng Ying nearly set her up, and her drama was in jeopardy of being linked to the scandal, so much so that it was nearly pulled from the air.
[Thank you, Sister Ying! Thank you to the production team! She almost got caught up in the scandal of a druggie]
“Public opinion is turning to our side.” That afternoon, Chi Tong was in Luo Yings office, reporting to Luo Ying.
“Alright, I’ll leave it all to you. I’m relieved.” Luo Ying smiled. Chi Tong had proven himself time and again. She had her full trust in him.
She had skipped today’s studio session, but it was not because of Zheng Ying. It was her boy band! It was finally ready!
“Knock, knock.” Someone knocked on the glass door of the office.
Zhou Cheng pushed open the door and stuck his head in. “Sister Ying, Brother Chi, we’re here.”
“Come in quickly.” Luo Ying was the first to wave her hand. She couldn’t wait to see the four people that Chi Tong had chosen.
The three boys followed Zhou Cheng into the office.
“Lead vocalist, Jin Yu, right here.” Chi Tong swiveled around and introduced each person individually.
“Rappers, Li Jie and Wu Ling.”
Jin Yu nodded. When he rejected Zhou Cheng six times, he was just as distant and uncaring as he was now. He left a favorable impression on Luo Ying. He was the former lead singer of an underground band before he was “poached” by Zhou Cheng.
“Sister Ying.” An anxious Li Jie smiled and said hello. He appeared to be a model student at a prestigious music academy. It was impossible to tell that he had incredible explosive power on stage.
“Hello.” Wu Ling also greeted her warmly.
Though the youngest of the four, Wu Lings dance posture stood out to Luo Ying immediately. He was not afraid to perform in front of an audience. He was a seasoned performer who had danced regularly throughout the year. Since Zhou Cheng and Luo Ying already knew each other, Chi Tong did not introduce them to each other.
“Hello.” Luo Ying welcomed them into her studio.
They were four different kinds of handsome boys, but she liked them all. Having a beauty feast to look forward to first thing in the morning helped lift Luo Yings spirits.
“I’m sure you’ve all heard Chi Tong go over the team’s strategy for your debut.”
Luo Ying smiled and raised a finger. “The first order of business is to record our first album.”
She quickly turned around. “Now, I’d like to introduce you to the person who is going to make your first album a reality..”
