The Scumbag Attackers Regretted It Deeply After My Death - Chapter 6
“Alright, I think I generally understand. What are your thoughts on this matter? How about I find someone to remove the hired online commenters for you right now?”
“Lin Jingji, why do you want to remove the hired commenters I paid for?”
“Those commenters were bought by you?!”
Lin Jingji’s voice, full of disbelief and astonishment at her actions, came through the phone.
“Uh-huh, what’s the problem?”
The light turned green, and Yao Anna drove her Ferrari forward, her displeased tone suggesting she was criticizing Lin Jingji for being overly surprised.
It was April now, the height of spring. Even the wind in the northern capital city, Dìdū, carried a warmth. The gentle breeze tousled Yao Anna’s jet-black, silky hair, drawing the eyes of passersby.
A luxury car and a beautiful woman naturally caught attention.
On the other end, Lin Jingji, who had been sitting on the sofa, suddenly stood up upon hearing her words. Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, unable to comprehend Yao Anna’s purpose for hiring commenters to trash herself!
Was this Omega insane? She only had one illness; did it genuinely burn out her brain?
You don’t ruin your own future like this, do you?
“You…”
Lin Jingji tried her best to suppress the confusing anger in her heart. She spoke up and asked, “Anna, can you tell me why you’re doing this?”
She kept her voice low and submissive, suppressing her anger, purely because Yao Anna was still the most lucrative cash cow under her management.
The actress with the greatest potential, the winner of three major film awards—that’s not something to be trifled with lightly!
She knew the extent of Actress Yao’s money-making ability too well. It was precisely because of Yao Anna’s soaring popularity that she earned enough money to buy villas and luxury cars in the most expensive areas of Dìdū!
“I have my reasons for doing this. Lin Jingji, there are some things you’re better off not knowing.”
The Omega’s cool and indifferent voice seemed to travel through time, echoing faintly from a distant shore, causing Lin Jingji to freeze. The former Yao Anna was practically an open book to her, especially concerning work, where she would always seek her out for discussion, advice, and suggestions.
Yet this time, her words implied that Lin Jingji should mind her own business? This genuinely surprised Lin Jingji.
“Anna, I feel like you’ve become a completely different person…”
Before Lin Jingji could finish, Yao Anna had lost the patience to continue the conversation. She interrupted flatly, “What you need to do now is wait and watch the show, not keep asking questions. That only makes you look foolish.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Anna hung up the phone. Her sunglasses obscured her perfect, petite face, making it difficult for passersby to guess her identity, even in the convertible.
Thinking of Lin Jingji’s shocked expression, a cold smile involuntarily curved on the woman’s lips.
Just a manager. Where did she get the confidence to think she had the right to pry?
Yao Anna felt that she had been too easygoing in the past, which was why a mere manager dared to shout at her. Would Lin Jingji have her current status if it weren’t for her?
The answer was obviously no.
She ate her food, drank her drinks, and made money from her to buy villas and luxury cars, only to stab her in the back in the end!
She hadn’t understood the meaning of the word “shameless” before. Now, she finally saw it for herself.
Traitors who betrayed her, of course, needed to be dealt with slowly and taught how to behave again.
Yao Anna did not rush back to the hotel. She first unhurriedly drove to the Michelin restaurant she had reserved, following the waiting attendant into the luxurious private suite.
She glanced down at her wrist watch. It was less than five minutes until the appointed time with the person she was meeting. She hadn’t eaten breakfast this morning because she woke up late for the audition, and now she felt quite hungry.
“The friend I’m meeting will be here soon. Serve the food quickly, I’m hungry. Also, bring your most expensive bottle of red wine.”
Realizing she still had to drive later, she paused and then ordered a bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice instead, finally settling on that.
“Yes, ma’am.”
Yao Anna was a regular customer here, and the attendant naturally recognized her. He noted everything down and quietly left the suite.
After the attendant left, Yao Anna reached up and took off the sunglasses resting on her nose.
Just then, the room door was pushed open, and the bright sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows fell upon the woman.
Hearing the movement, Yao Anna slightly lifted her gaze. Her exquisite and stunning face was exposed to the air. In the sunlight, she seemed to radiate a dazzling glow.
Seeing who had arrived, the coolness in Yao Anna’s eyes quickly faded, replaced by a bright and warm smile. She rose from the sofa and walked quickly to greet the person.
“Old Pei, long time no see! You’re finally here!”
The tall, slender Alpha standing at the doorway seemed somewhat surprised by Yao Anna’s enthusiasm. She lightly raised an eyebrow, and a subtle curve formed on her lips.
The Alpha’s name was Pei Congling. She possessed a tranquil and gentle demeanor and was the head of the Pei family, one of the four major families in Dìdū. Her height of 180 cm coupled with her perfect looks had captivated many noble Omegas in the capital.
Yao Anna invited Pei Congling to meet here, naturally, because she had business to discuss.
“Long time no see. Miss Yao is as beautiful and radiant as ever.”
Pei Congling smiled, her gaze sweeping over Yao Anna’s delicate, captivating face. Then, she looked down and saw a fair hand that was a little too close to her. She politely averted her gaze, walked straight to the dining table, and pulled out a chair to sit down.
Yao Anna slightly raised an eyebrow. She retracted her hand, not feeling embarrassed at all, and confidently walked over to sit opposite Pei Congling.
As soon as she sat down, Pei Congling’s elegant and playful voice reached her.
“I hear that Miss Yao was mercilessly kicked out of the family by the head of the Yao family?”
Pei Congling raised an eyebrow, her gaze on Yao Anna subtly taking on a probing and playful quality. She curved her lips and got straight to the point: “Tell me, Miss Yao, taking time out of your busy schedule to invite me to lunch—what do you want to get from me?”
Only one night had passed. Was that old man, Yao Guangming, so eager to distance himself from her?
It was probably not just for that reason. Yao Zhenzhen must have gone home to complain to the old man. And now? The old man, who favored Yao Zhenzhen, naturally couldn’t sit still.
“Who told you I was kicked out?”
Yao Anna found it amusing. Pei Congling raised an eyebrow, the amusement in her eyes growing stronger.
“Oh? Is it just a rumor then?”
“That old man, Yao Guangming, he’s not worthy of doing that.”
Yao Anna let out a low, scornful laugh, and elegantly crossed her long legs. Then, she unhurriedly picked up the teapot on the table and slowly poured two cups of steaming hot tea, gently pushing one toward Pei Congling across from her.
“Everyone says Old Pei is Dìdū’s genuine ‘clairaudient’ and ‘all-seeing eye.’ You’re always the first to know about any gossip or inside information. But who would have thought that even your intelligence could be wrong one day?”
