Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the news conference ended, Murong Qiao received a message from Jiang Chi as soon as she returned home.

[Jiang Chi: There’s a solution to the plagiarism matter.]

Murong Qiao had always asked Jiang Chi to investigate the plagiarism. Other than Ke Run, the author of the plagiarism was also involved.

The other party could take out a work that was 80 to 90% similar to hers. Moreover, it was obvious that he was already prepared when the incident happened. No matter how she looked at it, it couldn’t be a coincidence.

At that time, she was certain that someone was behind this, so she asked Jiang Chi to continue investigating.

Now, it was time for the results to surface.

Along with Jiang Chi’s message was an address near the docks.

After all, there were indeed some things that were not convenient to do in the company, and there was no need for Murong Qiao to show mercy to her enemies.

“This is kidnapping… Wait for me. When I get out, I’ll go to court to complain about you!’1 The trembling voice showed that the owner was especially frightened.

At the same time, the other party’s body didn’t stop struggling. He wanted to break through the restrictions and restraints on his body, but no matter how his limbs twisted, they stuck tightly to the chair behind him. In the end, he could only fall back in vain.

This was an empty room.

Two people with sacks over their heads were firmly tied to the chairs with ropes and couldn’t move.

Jiang Chi stood in front of the two of them expressionlessly. After confirming that there was no problem with the binding, he slowly removed their hoods.

“Where is this…”

Wei Bei, whose face was as pale as gold foil, was so frightened that he couldn’t speak properly. He trembled as he looked at the man standing in front of him.

Although he was not muscular, he looked like he was not to be trifled with…

But, he remembered that he had never offended this person.

Wei Bei suppressed his panic and probed, “Brother, I’m just a small author. I don’t think we’ve met before…”

He was so nervous that his mind went blank. He couldn’t remember what he had said after saying it.

As for the other middle-aged man beside Wei Bei, his reaction was completely different from when Wei Bei’s hood was removed.

He was so silent that he was almost like a dead person, especially after seeing Jiang Chi’s face. His pupils constricted as if he had seen someone he knew and was afraid of. His mouth was tightly shut, and he didn’t say a word the entire time.

“Please let me go! We can discuss everything…”

No matter what Wei Bei said, Jiang Chi stood rooted to the ground.

Until they heard footsteps.

The crisp sound of high heels stepping on the ground approached from afar. The sound seemed to be suppressing the heartbeat in his body, and every step she took made his nerves tense up.

“Squeak—”

The door was pushed open.

Wei Bei looked up in panic and saw a face that almost stopped his heart and lungs.

“I, you… I’m not…”

Hearing the other party’s trembling voice, Murong Qiao curled her lips and chuckled. She walked in front of him calmly and looked down at Wei Bei.

“Are you angry?” Murong Qiao’s tone was light.

“That’s right. After all, I plagiarized your book and earned a good reputation.”

Murong Qiao deliberately greeted him with the statement that the other party had posted at that time.

Wei Bei swallowed nervously. “How, how could that be? I was the one who plagiarized you.”

At this moment, he had fallen into the other party’s hands, but Wei Bei didn’t have the shamelessness he possessed on the Internet.

“How could that be?” Murong Qiao shook her head and refuted him. “I’m a great sinner who plagiarized your creativity.

A great sinner deserves to be cut into a thousand pieces, drowned in spit, and stabbed in the back until he became depressed before committing suicide to apologize.

Isn’t that right?”

Murong Qiao was clearly talking about herself, but the more Wei Bei listened, the lower his head became. He wished he could bury his head in his chest.

He almost didn’t dare to meet Murong Qiao’s clear gaze.

It was the kind of gaze that kept staring at him without moving away, so focused that it almost made him panic.

The room also became silent. Without Wei Bei’s words, Murong Qiao didn’t speak, making Wei Bei feel the blood flowing in his body, as if even his heart was beating faster.

In the almost suffocating silence, Murong Qiao only spoke after a long time.

“Jiang Chi, bring him out.”

This “him” was naturally referring to the middle-aged man beside him.

The other party was like a silent gourd. The breakthrough was clearly on Wei Bei’s side.

“Yes.”

Jiang Chi replied and took a step forward without hesitation. He reached out and pulled the middle-aged man out. He grabbed the top part of the chair and didn’t care about the sorry state of the person on the chair.

It was as if at this moment, the middle-aged man, who had been silent all along, finally understood what panic was. He struggled under Jiang Chi’s drag and shook the chair violently, wanting to escape.

Wei Bei was about to ask where the other party would be sent to when he saw Jiang Chi take out an iron rod from somewhere and knock him out with one blow.

This frightened Wei Bei so much that he fell silent.

“Instead of worrying about him, it’s better to worry about yourself.”

She raised her voice as if she was looking forward to it.

Wei Bei was so frightened that his scalp went numb. His panicked legs struggled to make him retreat and distance himself from this demon-like woman, as if he could escape danger this way.

He was a novelist after all and had a big imagination. Murong Qiao’s words immediately made Wei Bei feel resistant.

Murong Qiao didn’t care about Wei Bei’s reaction.

She turned around and walked behind Wei Bei, dragging his chair to a wall.

Murong Qiao reached out and pressed down on an imperceptible depression at the edge of the wall. Then, she saw the wall in front of the two of them suddenly stretch to the sides, revealing a huge glass window.

Outside the glass window was the sea with raging waves hitting the shore.

Murong Qiao considerately opened the window and let the salty sea breeze blow on Wei Bei.

“I ask, you answer.”

“As for the result of the wrong answer—”

Murong Qiao gave him the answer with her actions. She pressed the chair forward with one hand and pushed half of Wei Bei’s body out of the window, as if she would let go and let the other party fall in the next second.

Wei Bei’s body was stiff and he didn’t dare to move. His entire body was about to turn into a rock, but he couldn’t shrink back. His breathing became lighter.

“Why did you do it?”

First question.

Wei Bei swallowed. “I-It’s because I…”

“It’s really because I…!” As if to make Murong Qiao believe him, Wei Bei tried his best to raise his voice.

He closed his eyes and tried his best to ignore the tide. “I saw your books Fearless and Wulin Universe become popular previously! I also wanted to become popular, so I plagiarized your work!”

“I, I just wanted to earn money…”

Wei Bei said with a tremble.

Lies.

Murong Qiao looked at him and came to this conclusion almost without judgment.

According to Jiang Chi’s investigation, the profits from Wei Bei’s plagiarism were not significant at all. It could only be said that he was barely maintaining his livelihood.

With this bit of money, the other party had even copied it all the way to the incident. What was the point?

“What’s the name of the male lead character in Fearless?”

The second question.

However, this time, Wei Bei couldn’t answer at all because he was purely making up an explanation.

A few seconds passed, but Murong Qiao didn’t get an answer.

She let go of her hand and let the only rope on the chair keep Wei Bei dangling at the edge of the window.

“Ah!!” Wei Bei shouted in fear.

The sound of the waves hitting the shore seemed to be right beside his ears. Wei Bei felt that he was on the verge of collapse, and his face turned paler than a dead person’s..
