Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 587: Green Tea Bitch
"Mr. Sun, is that you in the video? Before this, hadn't you always acted like a lovesick fool, so how do you explain this incident?"
"Mr. Sun, is what Vice Chairman Hao said true? Did you try to rape Xinya, fail, and then, harboring resentment, fabricate these lies?"
"I don't know what you're talking about, get lost!" Sun Yibo roared, wanting nothing more than to quickly leave this hellish place.
He had made his decision to leave the venue immediately, head home, and then escape from Hua City at the fastest speed to sneak abroad. He absolutely could not go to prison!
"Sun Yibo, you dare to slander my goddess? I'll kill you!" Just then, all of Xinya's fans stood up abruptly and stared coldly at Sun Yibo.
Xinya had been bombarded throughout the day by various news websites, newspapers, and internet vigilantes, who wantonly defamed her. Although they were not Xinya, they felt almost as miserable as she did.
They all firmly believed in Xinya's innocence, supported her unswervingly as always, and with the truth now revealed, they breathed a sigh of relief while also feeling exceptionally angry.
Not only had Sun Yibo attempted to rape their goddess, but failing to achieve that, he had instead framed and slandered her, which completely obliterated their last shred of patience. Now, they all wanted to teach Sun Yibo some unforgettable lessons.
Suddenly, dozens of fans charged forwards, with a burly leader kicking Sun Yibo to the ground, followed by a group who began punching and kicking him.
In no time, the area echoed with Sun Yibo's screams, piercing like a pig being slaughtered.
The journalists all stepped back, yet not a single one intervened. Everyone did the same thing, which was to take out their cameras and take pictures.
Fans were eventually pulled away by security and some onlookers. People saw Sun Yibo lying in a pool of blood, his body barely recognizable, several teeth knocked out, a good amount of hair torn off, and his face swollen and bruised like a pig's head, looking pitiful.
At that moment, Hao Jian, with a cigarette in his mouth, slowly walked over, looking down at Sun Yibo.
Sun Yibo opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't articulate anything, his eyes conveying fear and pleading.
"Don't beg me, because this time, I won't let you live." Hao Jian said with a playful smile and then stepped aside to let the medical staff take Sun Yibo away.
Hao Jian returned to the stand, addressing the crowd, "The truth is now clear. I guess some troublemakers can shut your mouths, and those internet warriors should stop seeking attention. Because no matter what you do now, you'll only look ridiculous."
"Miss Su, could you say a few words?" At this moment, a journalist asked.
Then, Xinya, looking very uneasy, moved forward, her eyes tearful as she spoke, "I don't know what I did wrong to deserve this. Is it just because I rejected Sun Yibo? Just because his legs were broken, so he must be the vulnerable one? Just because I didn't speak out about his offense, so I don't deserve any sympathy?"

At her words, everyone was moved, especially the journalists, who had speculated wildly and slandered Xinya without knowing the truth. Now it seemed too unjust.
They hadn't realized that Xinya was the real victim.
"I don't take movie roles, I don't go on variety shows, because I wanted to keep things pure! I just wanted to sing quietly, I thought that would keep the trouble away, but it seems I thought wrong," Xinya said with a disheartened shake of her head.
Suddenly, Xinya looked up resolutely, her eyes bright: "So, I've decided, starting today, to say goodbye to the entertainment industry, to stop singing!"
"What?"
In an instant, everyone below was dumbstruck, including Xinya's fans and the journalists.
Was Xinya really planning to leave the entertainment industry? This was definitely sensational news!
"Goddess, please don't leave the industry! What are we going to do if you leave?" the fans suddenly became anxious.
"Thank you to some fans who have cherished me, but my mind is made up, and I hope you won't obstruct me," Xinya said, then walked off the stage, looking solemn.
Hao Jian was also taken aback, sighing internally; it seemed this ordeal had truly hurt Xinya.
He walked up to the front, facing the crowd: "Honestly, I was also surprised this incident unfolded as it did. I never expected Xinya would give up the career she was most passionate about. I will try my best to persuade her to stay in the entertainment industry so that everyone can continue to enjoy her beautiful songs."
"Vice Chairman Hao, please, do try to persuade Miss Su!" a group of fans pleaded from below.
Hao Jian nodded and responded, "I will do my best, but I can't guarantee success. If I cannot persuade her, I hope everyone can respect her decision. After all, what happened this time genuinely hurt her, and if I hadn't found those videos, Xinya might have borne these stains for life."
Upon hearing this, the crowd showed varied expressions, some sighing, some angry.
Then, Hao Jian walked down from the stage and headed toward the backstage.
When he got to the backstage room, Hao Jian saw Xinya standing by the window, with faint tear stains on her face.
Hao Jian sighed and walked over, saying, "Are you alright?"
"I want fried chicken and beer," Su Xinya suddenly turned around, her smile blooming beautifully.
"Huh?" Hao Jian was confused. Just now, Su Xinya looked like she was at death's door, and now she was smiling so happily?
Immediately after, Hao Jian realized and asked uncertainly, "Were you acting before?"
"What? Is acting only Sun Yibo's prerogative? I don't like acting, but that doesn't mean I can't!" Su Xinya pouted her red lips slightly and smirked mischievously.
"So you didn't really want to quit the entertainment industry?" Hao Jian was shocked.
"Quit the entertainment industry? Unless I'm crazy! Otherwise, I'd never make such a foolish decision," Su Xinya shrugged.
"Then why did you say that earlier?"
"Idiot, I was trying to gain public sympathy and make those who criticized me feel guilty. That way, they would become even more infatuated with me," Su Xinya smiled charmingly, her allure rampant, looking every bit the femme fatale.
"Damn, you manipulative witch!" Hao Jian couldn't help but retort.
"This is all for you, isn't it? The public feeling guilty about me will think of ways to compensate, and they'll end up buying your group's jewelry! Come to think of it, I indirectly made an ad for you guys, and I didn't even charge an ad fee!" Su Xinya complained.
"Right!" Hao Jian slapped his forehead, realizing such publicity could indeed enhance the group's fame in an instant.
Since Su Xinya was a public figure, news like this made everyone who noticed her also take notice of the Shu Ya Group. Now that her reputation had been cleansed, the public's ill feelings would turn to fondness, and her act had caused a massive reaction.
Meanwhile, in an ambulance, Sun Yibo lay on a stretcher and asked a medical worker beside him, "Why isn't the vehicle moving towards the hospital?"
"To the hospital? No, you don't need to go there," the medical worker sneered twice, then removed his mask to reveal a handsome face—it was Li He.
"Because the Underworld is where you belong!" Immediately, Li He's expression turned icy, and he directly punched Sun Yibo in the chest.
"Cough!"
Sun Yibo coughed up blood instantly, his face turning red and then rapidly paling, before he lay motionless.
........
Later, the video Hao Jian had captured was released online, featuring Wen Hanwen's personal confession, and the public learned what had happened.
They even noticed Xu Rongde and Liang Jiankun mentioned in the video.
"Damn it!"
At that moment, seeing the video, Liang Jiankun flew into a rage, his face turning ashen, for he knew he was finished.
Wen Hanwen had betrayed him, and if the police started investigating, they would undoubtedly uncover some clues.
Just then, there was a knock at the door, "Young Master, people from the criminal investigation department are here for you."
Liang Jiankun's pupils shrank, his face turning extremely ugly, he said, "Let them in!"
Then, a group of police officers walked in, and Hao Jian was naturally among them.
"Hey, we meet again!" Hao Jian said teasingly, waving his hand at Liang Jiankun.
"What are you here for?" Liang Jiankun demanded sharply, feigning ignorance.
"We're here for you, of course." Hao Jian signaled to a detective beside him.
"Liang Jiankun, you are suspected of inciting others to slander, murder, and create fake news among other crimes, and now I need to take you in to assist with the investigation!"
"Where's the evidence? Show me the evidence!" Liang Jiankun shouted, unwilling to go with them based just on their word.
"Xu Rongde and Wen Hanwen have already confessed, saying you directed them, and the killer who murdered Zuo Xinglong also admitted you paid him. With three witnesses testifying against you, we don't need further evidence," Hao Jian said.
"What?" Liang Jiankun couldn't believe it. It was one thing for Wen Hanwen to betray him, but Xu Rongde too? And that employee from Shu Ya Group, who was already in the late stages of cancer and close to death, why would he betray him?
Seeing the confusion in Liang Jiankun's eyes, Hao Jian mocked, "Xu Rongde came to me pleading for mercy after Wen Hanwen was arrested. He agreed to betray you just to spare his own life. As for that employee from Shu Ya Group, did you think that just because you paid him off to send his family to America I couldn't touch him? I found his wife and three sons' address that very evening, took some photos to show him, and then he decided to testify against you as a tainted witness."
