Chapter 864: She’s Good-looking But Has A Bad Character

With the two top hacker organizations working together, as long as they had an internet connection, they would definitely be able to find clues. There was hope of finding the women and children who had already been sold.

Before Mu Ming could answer, Mu Ling took out her laptop and posted an announcement on Dark Net, asking everyone to cooperate with Stars to investigate the missing people. The top hackers in the country made their moves together, and like a large network that spread throughout the country, they quickly found some clues.

“Brother, if Dad and Mom know that we’re saving those who were trafficked, they’ll be very happy, right? After all, they previously fought with these evil forces and even sacrificed their lives for this.”

“They’ll be happy,” Mu Ming said softly.

A moment later, the award ceremony officially began. The host went on stage to give a speech, then began the award ceremony. The reporters all aimed their cameras at the stage, but they still did not see the legendary ancient zither.

The reporters hurriedly asked, “Miss Fu Sheng, there are rumors online that the zither you like was snatched away by your friend, so you won’t be able to get the gift you want at the award ceremony. Is that right?”

Tang Ruge hesitated for a moment, and there was a trace of sorrow in her eyes. Then, she bit her lip, and her eyes turned red. She looked aggrieved but remained firm. “No, everyone has misunderstood. Xi Xi and I are good friends. She knows that the zither is my award gift. How could she snatch it away? Moreover…”

Her eyes were red, and her voice became choked. “Moreover, the person in charge of the charity banquet knows the meaning of that zither. They wouldn’t have casually sold it. These are all rumors. Don’t believe them.”

The reporter continued to ask, “But I don’t think that ancient zither was at the scene. Miss Fu Sheng, can you explain why?”

Tang Ruge lowered her eyes as tears welled up in her eyes. She explained nervously, “Actually… I accidentally damaged the ancient zither when I was practicing yesterday, so I couldn’t show it at the scene. All of this has nothing to do with Xi Xi. Don’t misunderstand.”

The reporter who asked this question was arranged by the Tang family. The Tang family had given him a sum of money to cooperate with Tang Ruge’s acting. At this point in the interview, he asked meaningfully, “Miss Fu Sheng, is that really the case?”

Tang Ruge did not dare to look up, afraid that others would notice the panic in her eyes. “Y-Yes.”

“That’s not it!” At this moment, an angry roar came from not far away. Xu Da held the trophy in his hand and walked over angrily. He explained to the reporters, “Miss Tang is kind-hearted. She only said that because she doesn’t want to embarrass her friend. That zither is clearly…”

“Mr. Xu!” Tang Ruge hurriedly stopped him, then pulled Xu Da back. Her eyes were red as she said awkwardly, “Mr. Xu, that zither really doesn’t matter to me. Moreover, it has nothing to do with Xi Xi. You’ve really misunderstood. Let’s quickly give out the award and not waste everyone’s time.”

Xu Da frowned and suddenly raised his voice. “Miss Fu Sheng, you’re still protecting that woman at a time like this! Since you don’t want to say it, I’ll tell everyone the truth! Actually, that zither was snatched away by Qiao Xi and hasn’t been returned to Miss Fu Sheng until now!”

Everyone knew that Xu Da was a guest presenter for Planet Music Festival, so there was no need for him to lie. Now, it seemed that what the internet said was true. Qiao Xi was jealous of Fu Sheng, so she secretly rushed to the charity banquet before Xu Da and stole the ancient zither that should have belonged to Tang Ruge.

“That young lady is quite good-looking, but her character isn’t good!”

“What’s the use of being good-looking? She has a vicious heart. She even dares to snatch the award gift from the winner of Planet Music Festival so brazenly. She must have done countless other bad things behind the scenes!”

“But Miss Fu Sheng just said that she damaged the zither. What exactly is going on?!”

Hearing the discussion of the crowd, Xu Da took a step forward and said indignantly, “That’s because Miss Fu Sheng is kind-hearted and can’t bear to see her friend get scolded. That’s why she said that. Actually, she never got her hands on that zither. Moreover, no one probably knows how Qiao Xi stole that zither, right?!”

Tang Ruge lowered her head with a sinister smile. Mu Ling, who was below the stage, was fuming. How could there be such a shameless person?

Xu Da straightened his back and said indignantly, “The person in charge of the charity banquet knew that the zither was supposed to be given to Miss Fu Sheng. It wasn’t supposed to be sold to anyone else. For the sake of achieving her goal, Qiao Xi actually pretended to be Miss Fu Sheng, so the person in charge gave the zither to her!”
