Chapter 482: No Way to Cheat Money

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

Murong Qiao called the number included in the email sent by the paparazzi.

As if to show how impatient the person on the other end of the line was, Murong Qiao only heard a few rings from the dial tone before a female voice cut in.

“h.e.l.lo?” There was an almost imperceptible urgency in the voice.

If it were an ordinary person, their rhythm would definitely have been disrupted by that email.

But the reason why Murong Qiao was Murong Qiao was naturally because she was calm and composed.

Murong Qiao leaned back slightly and let himself lean against the back of the chair leisurely. “h.e.l.lo, Young Miss Paparazzi.’

It sounded respectful, but she addressed her as a paparazzi. But to say that it’s

a disrespectful form of address…

It was unknown if she was stumped by Murong Qiao’s form of address, but the other party was silent for a long time before replying.

“Looks like you called me because you saw my email.” Sister Liu steadied her voice and tried to regain control of the situation. “How are your conditions?” The second half of the sentence was tall and carried a sense of superiority.

“Conditions?” Murong Qiao’s lips curved.

Sister Liu was stunned.

Murong Qiao methodically signed her name on the doc.u.ment in front of her. The word leisure was almost written on her face.

Sister Liu frowned. “What do you mean?”

“That evidence is in my hands. You should know-” She was about to say something when she was interrupted again.

Murong Qiao’s chuckle came from the other end of the phone. “Know what?” “Could it be that you’re saying—that you want to help me to expose this matter?” she said deliberately.

How did it become helping her?

Before Sister Liu could understand what the other party meant, she heard Murong Qiao say something else right on the heels of that.

“If it’s exposed, I still have to thank you. We can take this opportunity to establish a pitiable persona. It’s quite popular in the industry now, right?”

This last question made Sister Liu speechless.

She had imagined countless times how serious it would be to pick up the phone or talk to the other party, and what conditions she would use to bargain.

But no matter what…

Sister Liu’s mouth opened slightly in shock. She didn’t expect the other party to have such a reaction.

She had no chance to speak at all.

“But you should know the purpose of my email.” Fortunately, Sister Liu still remembered her original intention.

The most important thing was to earn money.

Murong Qiao said, “Oh, I naturally know the purpose of your email. I just feel that your methods are not good.

How much money can this small amount of information be used to make?” Murong Qiao’s indifferent tone made Sister Liu’s heart sink.

“If you have the latest scoop on which two celebrities secretly got married and fell in love, it will shock me even more. Perhaps I’m even willing to pay a little for this bit of gossip.”

Murong Qiao postured. “But-if that’s all you have, just forget it.” “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll really send it out? This isn’t the only material I have!” Sister Liu’s mind was hot, and she immediately spoke without thinking.

But in fact, she regretted it the moment she said it.

Fortunately, they were talking over the phone now, so the other party should not be able to tell anything.

“This recording is naturally just an appetizer. If you’re sensible, we can both go our own way after exchanging the money and goods.”

Sister Liu pretended to be unyielding in her panic and hung up first. This was also the only thing she did after taking over the initiative to talk. However, this also proved that she had been disrupted by Murong Qiao.

Sister Liu looked at the phone screen that had returned to normal in a daze. For a moment, her thoughts were in a mess. Every step was disrupted, and she didn’t know how to proceed.

No, that couldn’t be right…

Her heart was in a mess, but she found Murong Qiao’s indifferent att.i.tude strange.

According to An Nuo’s current popularity, could it be that the company was planning to groom new talents…? Otherwise, why…

Sister Liu was directly stunned by Murong Qiao’s move, so her usually agile and sharp mind became sluggish and hesitant and she fell into the trap.

Then her money—

Murong Qiao naturally didn’t know what Sister Liu was thinking.

She watched as the other party took the initiative to end the call. Without thinking, she asked Jiang Chi to forget about this matter.

“Go and check the surveillance cameras in the bar and the evidence in the other party’s hands. Even if the matter is harmless, a cornered dog will bite out of desperation. I don’t have to teach you, right?” Murong Qiao waved her hand casually.

There was no way they could cheat her of her money.

Jiang Chi nodded to acknowledge the order, indicating that he understood. If Sister Liu still didn’t intend to stop at this point and really went ahead to expose such information, she wouldn’t be far from a lawyer’s letter and a hefty compensation bill.

Seeing Jiang Chi move, Murong Qiao thought that the other party was preparing to leave the office as usual. However, after waiting for a long time, she realized that Jiang Chi was still standing beside her for a long time.

“Yes?” She looked up, puzzled.

At this moment, Jiang Chi happened to pull out what he was looking for from the many doc.u.ments. “I have something else to tell you.”

An extremely artistic and designed hollowed-out silver invitation was gently placed in front of Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows in confusion when she saw her name written on it.

“The family asked me to pa.s.s this invitation to you. It seems to be an invitation to a design compet.i.tion.” Jiang Chi told her what he knew.

Although Jiang Chi’s job was to help Murong Qiao manage the company, any matters that concerned the Murong Family, Murong Chen, Uncle Yang, and so on, the things that needed to be pa.s.sed to Murong Qiao would be handed over to Jiang Chi.

A design compet.i.tion?

Murong Qiao was stunned for a moment, as if she didn’t understand why she had received such an invitation.

However, she was puzzled and still held the invitation letter honestly in her hand. She gently flipped open the cover that was as beautiful as a work of art, allowing her vision to see the elegant words inside.

[h.e.l.lo, Miss Murong Qiao. I’m an official of the Muse design compet.i.tion. I’m inviting you this time…]

It was unknown if it was for the sake of pursuing art, but the sentence was simple and clear. They wanted to invite her to watch the compet.i.tion. To put it bluntly, this kind of compet.i.tion only invites rich and powerful people. Moreover, they were not ordinary rich and powerful people. Even in the entire upper-cla.s.s society, less than half of the people could receive this invitation.

“The Muse design compet.i.tion…” Murong Qiao muttered.

The word design reminded her that her Fourth Brother was also in design. When Jiang Chi saw this, he added, “It’s one of the top compet.i.tions in the country, and it’s very prestigious. It happens once every few years. It’s a rare opportunity.”

Although they were not in the same field, Jiang Chi had come into contact with this area a long time ago, so he knew a little.

When he said this, Murong Qiao’s interest that was about to dissipate was faintly reignited.

One of the best in the country?

She immediately used her computer to check the information about the Muse design compet.i.tion. In the end, she saw the name of a certain person.

The finals of the Muse Design Compet.i.tion! Yan Xiu VS Qin Zizhuo.

The other name was subconsciously ignored by Murong Qiao, leaving only the name “Yan Xiu” that forcefully barged into her vision.

Murong Qiao was stunned for a moment and immediately stopped talking. In Jiang Chi’s eyes, this reaction made him think that she didn’t want to go. He immediately picked up the laptop.

“If you don’t want to go, the subsequent itinerary will follow the original-”

“No, I’ll go.” Murong Qiao changed her mind.

Since her Fourth Brother was partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion, she definitely had to go and take a look.

After Murong Qiao realized this, she made a decision without hesitation to let Jiang Chi make time for the day of the finals..
