Chapter 229: Qi Yan Is Blackmailed

Her phone suddenly beeped with a notification!

Qi Yan unlocked her phone and thought that it was a spam message or someone looking for her. In the end —

It was a video!

In the video, a girl in a light blue hoodie went to a practically deserted news agency. She arrived at the desk with Yu Xian’s name tag on the side. When no one was looking, she placed a document under the teacup on the desk, then quickly turned around and left.

Qi Yan frowned, a little puzzled.

Of course she knew that the girl in the video was her, but she had kept her head down the entire time and was wearing a hat. She hadn’t shown her face at all. Who could have recognized her?

Qi Yan inexplicably felt nervous. She was about to ask questions, but the other party sent her another video —

In the video, a reporter in a South City work uniform was doing an interview near Pingfan Law Firm. The person being interviewed was a young girl about 16 or 17 years old. She was wearing a light blue hoodie, and her fair face was completely exposed in front of the camera. Her eyes were slightly down, and there was a hint of sadness in them.

When the reporter asked her what she thought of this matter, she said in a clear voice, “I – I don’t know why my second brother is like this. I heard that the murderer has a criminal record. Could it be that my second brother is actually being threatened? What will happen if he doesn’t help him?”

“But it doesn’t seem right that he’s doing this just because he’s being threatened, right?”

“I don’t know. My second brother shouldn’t be like this. How did he become like this? He even said that I…”

After that, the girl in the video was already tearing up, but she was still holding in her emotions. Her appearance made one’s heart ache.

Qi Yan’s face was ugly now!

She basically already had a guess. Sure enough, not long after, the other party sent her another message —

[Thank you, Miss Lu. No, I should say, Miss Qi.

[I’m indebted to Miss Qi for her care. This is Yu Xian, the person who received your “favor” in the past. Thanks to Miss Qi’s selfless contribution of information over the past half-year, I lived very comfortably and smoothly. My salary also increased substantially, and I was even about to be promoted!

[However, it is also thanks to Miss Qi’s care that I now have nothing. Since I now had time to spare, I specially learned a little more of Miss Qi. Then, I realized that Miss Qi isn’t a simple person! What do you think? Do I have the qualifications to be an entertainment reporter, and to write a special report on Miss Qi?

[After all, I might not even be able to protect my life soon!]

The other party even added a sweet smile emoji. Qi Yan was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. D*mn it, a mere reporter actually dared to blackmail her!

Qi Yan gritted her teeth. Before she could reply, she received another message —

[Oh, right, there is also the matter with your fifth brother and big brother. Although I don’t know the details, I can just write any random piece. You know what entertainment reporters are like. Want to guess what everyone will say about you when the time comes?]

There was yet another sweet smile emoji at the end. Qi Yan was about to explode with anger, but the other party still —

[Look, how about I call it the death of the holy white lotus?

[Or the piano genius is actually a black lotus?

[Oh dear, it can’t be that the person implicated did more digging and in the end uncovered the truth, right?]

The infuriating messages came one after another, completely enraging Qi Yan.

She was so angry that her veins throbbed. In the end, she just replied directly: [What do you want? How much do you want?]
