In the cold room, the 'tap tap' of footsteps was so clear, hovering around the ears of the three like the whispers of a ghost.
The temperature on the wall thermometer continued to drop, and before long, it fell below zero. Due to the rapid loss of heat, the surface of the three individuals turned an abnormal bluish-purple, as if poison instead of blood flowed through their veins, with a slight itchiness spreading throughout their bodies.
No one spoke first; they just trembled, keeping their heads down silently. Xu Xiaoyou felt somewhat helpless:
"Why is no one talking now? Back when you were trying so hard to force my Little Blue Bird to sign these contracts, weren't you all quite eloquent?"
"This one, 'Artist Resource Tilt Mutual Aid Agreement', and this one, 'Equity Transfer Agreement', 'Curtain Promotion Service Agreement', 'Corporate Culture Cooperation Promotion Agreement', 'New Star Artist Exchange Training Guidance'."
"You really worked hard, coming up with so many glamorous names, didn't you?"
Xu Xiaoyou was very aware that after she left, the original 'angel investors' all tore off their false masks, revealing their true demonic faces, colluding to pressure the blue-haired girl.
For any ordinary person suddenly facing such a huge flood of information, they would certainly feel helpless, trying to pick out the relatively correct streams from countless malicious, deceitful, trap-laden waves.
She was already prepared to come back and start all over again, but who knew that the "Dream Chasing" tower still stood unyieldingly in the night, emitting a weak light.
It's hard to imagine how much pressure Tang Xin alone bore at the center of the vortex, how much maneuvering and fighting she did to barely maintain the normal operation of the company and ensure the basic lives of hundreds of artists.
If it weren't for Tang Xin, all her previous efforts might have been in vain.
This was the result after Tang Xin's struggle, these vampires.
"Let me think, President Chen. On the drinking table before, you were always the one boasting the most, saying you were so loyal and devoted to Rongsen Media, making so many contributions. How come you've been missing for almost ten hours, and there's still no movement over there?"
"Ten hours?" Hearing this, the man's pupils constricted as he raised his head, "This, this is impossible?"
"We are all tracked. If we go missing, the company would immediately notify the Tuner..."
One person realized something: "Above us is the downtown area, right!"
"Help!" That person yelled.
"Someone help us, can anyone hear? This lunatic woman has gone crazy!"
Xu Xiaoyou just sat silently in her own position, listening as the person's voice went hoarse from shouting. Standing next to her, a masked strong man couldn't bear it any longer, delivering a punch to the man's abdomen, almost making him throw up the sardine salad he ate yesterday.
Seeing this situation, the remaining two were also quiet, realizing their shouting could never reach the surface, their struggle was in vain.
Xu Xiaoyou held her teacup up, exhaling.
"Do you think using such a barbaric method will make us compromise? If you're capable, go ahead. But with executives from three companies dying here, being traced back to you, do you think you can escape?" A senior executive from Lily Media tried to persuade the blonde girl this way.
"Exactly, let us go now, or this matter will never end. Have the guts to not let us out!"
"Miss Xu, despite my previous admiration for you, now it seems you're no different from those greedy fools!"
The three had evidently reached some sort of agreement, forming a unified front.
Xu Xiaoyou did not respond to their words, merely tossed a stack of photos in front of Lily Media's executive, and took a sip of the hot tea in her cup.
The man glanced down at the photos, depicting him and a beautiful woman entangled on a bed, shot from an extremely tricky angle, where an ordinary person would never suspect there was a pinhole camera.
"President Lin, you should be familiar with this photo, no?"
Lin Yong sneered, "What a joke, using such things to threaten me, do you think I care?"
"I've heard there were small cracks in your marriage with your wife. I understand, it's normal for there to be gaps between spouses, but if this photo were to reach her hands, and she filed for divorce at this time, a big chunk of that sweet cake of assets under your name would definitely be divided away."
"You!" Clearly, Xu Xiaoyou's words struck Lin Yong's sore spot. Unexpectedly, the other party even knew his current family situation clearly; he couldn't stand the thought of all his painstakingly accumulated efforts being credited to someone else.
After calmly thinking it over, Lin Yong made a scornful noise:
"I'm unaware of this, such voyeuristic photos don't constitute definitive evidence, do you think I'm completely ignorant of the law?"
"And what about these?" Xu Xiaoyou tossed over several more stacks of photos, all of Lin Yong with different women, and even some obscene photos with a male Siren.
"With so many photos, there must be some you can't explain, that are enough to constitute evidence in terms of timelines, right? You may use your connections to bribe the Chord Player, but the String Ensemble possesses the authority of objective fact determination. Do I need to read out the 'Starry Melody' regulations one by one for you?"
"If President Lin had been more prudent in his daily conduct, he wouldn't have fallen into such a situation today."
"When did you plant your people around me!" Lin Yong's eyes widened in anger.
