"Okay, I'll head back now."
After Chu Chen turned and left, Chu Yu glanced down at her phone again.
Half an hour ago, Chu Yu sent Lin Qian a message, but she hasn't replied yet.
Logically speaking, Lin Qian should have woken up by now and wouldn't be looking at her phone.
What's more troublesome is that Lin Qian wasn't staying at this hotel, Chu Yu couldn't find her even if he wanted to.
Unable to wait any longer, Chu Yu had no choice but to call Lin Qian.
Chu Yu held the phone to his ear, and after a series of beeps, a familiar notification tone sounded.
"The number you dialed is busy, please try again later."
Chu Yu frowned slightly and put down her phone.
The scene felt strangely familiar, reminding her of her unfortunate encounter with Gu Jinhuai years ago.
That day, Chu Yu also inexplicably lost contact with Gu Jinhuai.
A hint of nervousness flashed in Chu Yu's eyes, and she immediately took out her phone to call Gu Jinhuai.
Gu Jinhuai answered the phone quickly.
"What's wrong?" When the man's familiar, steady voice came, Chu Yu's tense mood eased a bit.
Chu Yu: "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask where you are."
A sweet feeling welled up in Gu Jinhuai's heart, who was originally in a serious meeting.
His voice softened instinctively, "I'm in a meeting at the company. It's raining quite heavily today, so don't leave the hotel."
Chu Yu hummed in agreement. "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yu glanced at her chat window with Lin Qian again.
Lin Qian still hadn't replied.
Having no other option, Chu Yu contacted Zhang Yue to have the company contact Lin Qian's studio.
After finishing all that, Chu Yu stretched, got up, glanced back at the pouring rain outside, and casually walked into the elevator, preparing to go back to her room to rest.
Not long after, there was another deafening roar, like lightning.
Many people stayed at home complaining that the sound effects were comparable to those in a blockbuster movie.
Within an entertainment group.
[The rain in Capital is pouring down today; how many unfaithful men must have sworn oaths to cause this?]
[Hilarious! Today's rain is heavier than the day Meng Jiangnü cried down the Great Wall.]
Our company has completely shut down today, it's really scary.
[Holy crap! I just heard someone in the next group say that some factory got flooded, it's terrifying.]
The torrential rain lasted all day, causing widespread panic.
Chu Yu sat in his hotel room, calmly gazing at the sky outside.
I have a feeling this rain came at the wrong time.
At 7 p. m., the Xinwen Lianbo started on time.
"A sudden and severe rainstorm hit Capital today, triggering multiple flash floods and mudslides. Among the damages, a large processing plant under the Chu Group was flooded and collapsed. Police reinforcements have been dispatched to conduct search and rescue operations."
Chu Yu occasionally listens to the Xinwen Lianbo, mainly to stay informed about national events and economic hot topics.
When she heard this announcement, her face instantly fell silent.
The Chu Group has many processing plants under its umbrella, and Chu Yu couldn't immediately determine which one had the problem.
But she had a bad feeling that the impact of this matter might go far beyond that.
Just then, Chu Yu's phone, which was on the bedside table, suddenly vibrated.
It was Lin Qian calling.
Chu Yu answered the phone, and a panicked voice immediately came from the other end.
" Chu Yu, something's happened. I don't know what's wrong with Meng Fuyu today. He suddenly unilaterally canceled many of our collaborations. My dad just called me over and gave me a dressing down, so I haven't been able to reply to your messages."
Logically speaking, since Meng Fuyu cheated on Lin Qian and they broke up, he should feel indebted to Lin Qian and wouldn't directly target the Lin Family.
This situation is rather unexpected.
Lin Qian then guessed, "Could it be that Meng Fuyu knows about our collaboration?"
Chu Yu remained calm. "Don't panic. Do you still have the surveillance video of Wen Zhixin -night meeting with Meng Fuyu that you investigated?"
Lin Qian nodded, "They're all there. I even made several backups."
Chu Yu pursed his lips slightly. "Release them now."
Lin Qian froze for half a second, "Now?"
Chu Yu: " Meng Fuyu's sudden actions suggest either that he's discovered something or that Wen Zhixin has been whispering in his ear. Now that they've made their move, if we continue to tolerate it, we'll only be bullied."
A hint of hesitation flashed in Lin Qian's eyes.
In fact, after Meng Fuyu suddenly canceled several collaborations today, Lin Qian had also considered whether to use the surveillance video to threaten Meng Fuyu.
But having been with Meng Fuyu for so long, she knew Meng Fuyu character very well.
Meng Fuyu is someone who appears gentle and gentlemanly on the surface, but is actually vengeful and vindictive on the inside.
If he finds out that I'm secretly cooperating with Chu Yu, who knows how many more outrageous things he might do to target the Lin Family.
Lin Qian can only trust Chu Yu now.
Lin Qian nodded, "Okay."
A few minutes later, the video of Wen Zhixin's late-night rendezvous with Meng Fuyu was uploaded to Weibo.
Chapter 64
The person who posted the exposé was an entertainment blogger who enjoys gossip.
He also frequently posts gossip and breaking news, which has earned him a large number of loyal fans.
The video of Wen Zhixin's late-night rendezvous with Meng Fuyu immediately went viral.
[Holy crap, look at the time in this surveillance video! I remember back then, Meng Fuyu and Lin Qian hadn't officially announced their breakup yet, right?]
[Although somewhat blurry, fans familiar with the two can immediately recognize that it is indeed them.]
[So, before Lin Qian even broke up with Meng Fuyu, Wen Zhixin went to see her boyfriend late at night??]
