169: Setting Traps (2)

Setting Traps (2)

Ran Xueyi was startled by this video and it was already too late to mute or stop the video from playing since the ambiguous noises of two people breathing and making sounds that could make anyone who heard it blush resounded inside the room.  1

Thankfully, the room was soundproofed and thus, there shouldn't be any worries about an angry neighbor knocking on her door to complain about the sound and tell them to keep it down. 

However, Ran Xueyi, who was about to stop the video after panicking slightly, paused her finger that was hovering above the screen. Although it was embarrassing to watch somebody else's intimate video, she still couldn't help but feel curious and interested since it was her first time watching this type of sex tape scandal video. 

In the past years, her so-called 'friends' tried to pull her to watch with them, but she found excuses to leave before the video could even start to play so she missed the chance to watch any adult rated videos. And as for watching it alone, Ran Xueyi was not too curious at that time and she was too preoccupied with her career as an actress and helping out her grandfather. 

Thus, she missed out on this beautiful and youthful experience. 

In the video, Director Zheng and Gu Jiao tossed around in bed and did all kinds of positions that allowed Director Zheng's old body to move freely. Gu Jiao also took a bit of initiative to move and find her release. 

Of course, the string of dirty words that came out of their mouths almost rotted their ears.

The video continued to play and so did the sound spilling inside the room. The unwilling and reluctant listeners, Zhao Fei and Feng Huai, stared at Ran Xueyi with enlarged eyes that were as large as a golf ball. 

After a few minutes of watching, Ran Xueyi finally stopped the video from playing and raised her head. When she looked up, she saw two people looking like an animated cartoon with their wide eyes and jaws on the floor. 

Ran Xueyi blinked her eyes and innocently asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Huai swallowed hard and stuttered as he replied, "This... this... Sister Ran, you're really brave and amazing!"

Ran Xueyi: "...Thank you?"

Zhao Fei did not think so and angrily said, "You... you... how can you be so brazen! I know you're excited but I never thought you'd be this excited that you'd watch an adult video in front of us! At least, please tell us before you press play so we can prepare ourselves and leave!"

Ran Xueyi: "..."

After a second or so, Ran Xueyi finally guessed what they were trying to say and laughed out loud. She was almost out of breath when she finished laughing and wiped the tears spilling the corners of her eyes. 

"Sister Zhao, this isn't what it looks like. You too, Xiao Hua." Ran Xueyi told them and before the two could protest and disagree with her, she handed her phone over which Zhao Fei at first avoided. "This is a video of Director Zheng and Gu Jiao. I got this from someone I know and thought that this might help us counter and take revenge against them."

Zhao Fei was in disbelief at first, but then she was extremely shocked at her words. Not mentioning Director Zheng and Gu Jiao's undesirable and filthy relationship, Zhao Fei was surprised that Ran Xueyi even got a video of them together.

Feng Huai frowned and scratched his head as he said, "Isn't Director Zheng already married? Why is he together with the actress and idol Gu Jiao?"

Zhao Fei and Ran Xueyi looked at each other and nodded in unison. Director Zheng was married to his wife 8 years ago, and they could be said as a power-couple since his wife was the Vice President of Brilliant Media, which is also the company that manages several popular idol groups and some actors including Wen Lai and Gu Jiao. 

Zhao Fei said, "I heard that Director Zheng is an extremely faithful man and he even proclaimed in front of everyone during his engagement party that he would rather die than find some other women to replace his wife. He dug his grave too deeply this time."

Ran Xueyi was also thinking of this. Director Zheng's love story eventually went around the entertainment circle and naturally, Ran Xueyi, who was still part of that circle before going hiatus, heard of this story and also said a few praises to the loving couple. 

From what she knew, Director Zheng stayed true to his words and never cheated and did not betray his wife's trust for 8 years. However, the video in her hands that Wu Qi gave to her renewed her vision again and proved that Director Zheng couldn't uphold his promise and destroyed his marriage himself.

"What are you going to do with that video? Release it?" 

Ran Xueyi naturally wanted to do this. "If I don't, should I let trash continue to pile up in front of me?

After what happened between her and Yang Baihua, unfaithfulness and betrayal was something that Ran Xueyi would never ever forgive in this lifetime. She would rather die than let anyone who betrayed her trust slip through her hands without getting through the same painful experience of a death without really dying. 

Zhao Fei understood this too since she herself wouldn't like this to happen to her and her husband. "Let me handle this thing. If I don't do anything after you obtained so much, won't my position as your agent and manager be useless?"

Ran Xueyi didn't keep the video to herself as well. She was extremely disgusted by Director Zheng and Gu Jiao. But things weren't finished just yet. 

Unlike Director Zheng and Gu Jiao's adultery, Scriptwriter Chun was not without any dirt in his life. He was reported a few times by some small stars for deleting and changing their scenes, but as if no one cared about this, these complaints were soon buried and the small stars had to give up. He was also once reported by his ex-boyfriend of two years several years ago after he filed a case of abuse and threats from Scriptwriter Chun. The case was soon closed after he paid his ex-boyfriend some hush money as settlement. 

As for the cameramen and a few crew members... Well, some of the crews were involved in taking dr*gs while the cameramen were said to have abused their position as cameramen to take secret videos of some small stars and a few popular stars while they were inside their resting area or when they're changing their clothes. Some of them even threatened these small stars to meet with them and also booked a hotel room. 

Wu Qi really did a lot of work and he did it very well. 

All the receipts, candid pictures, and chat messages were all gathered in Ran Xueyi's phone. If Ran Xueyi chose to release all of these along with Director Zheng and Gu Jiao's scandal, the entire country would be pulled into a whirlwind of chaos, and it would take a while and a lot of money before it would be taken.

Ran Xueyi tapped her fingers on the table and finally said, "Sister Zhao, release the files and videos to some small gossip and marketing accounts first. Let's set our traps and wait for them to fall for it."
