The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 823: Chapter 823: I Just Like Villains

The director could tell the two women were cursing him in their hearts and snorted, ”You think I’m stupid, but I think you’re the stupid ones! Both of you are involved in the entertainment industry, how can you believe those news? Let me tell you, this was all planned by Chen Zi!”

”Huh?” Yang Lusi was stunned for a moment, then realized, exclaiming.

The screenwriter also caught on quickly—one needs brains to be a screenwriter—and promptly pieced together many lines of conspiracy, lips trembling, in disbelief: ”All this is Chen Zi’s plan? Not only did it allow Shang Yang to bounce back from rock bottom, gaining lots of sympathy from fans, but it also made those who harmed Shang Yang face retribution?”

Yang Lusi muttered softly, ”Poisoning someone and ruining their voice, isn’t that illegal? Chen Zi is too bold, right? Did he succeed in framing like this?”

The director squinted his eyes, his gaze serene, ”What evidence is there to prove Chen Zi framed someone? All evidence now shows that person poisoned Shang Yang’s voice.”

”This...” The screenwriter shivered: ”Chen Zi is... kind of scary.”

The director waved a hand, ”Everything is just speculation. Maybe it was really that person who poisoned, and it was all just a coincidence.”

The screenwriter glanced at him sidelong, ”It’s all too coincidental. It’s all a setup.”

”So, he was eventually squeezed out; the capital won’t let someone who plays the game too well stay in the arena forever.” The director sighed, ”In this setup, he won; the one who harmed Shang Yang went to jail, Shang Yang also became famous, but he lost himself. No matter what, it’s impossible for there to be no traces left behind.”

”I get it!” The screenwriter asked, ”The capital obtained evidence and forced Chen Zi to exit?”

The director nodded, then shook his head.

The screenwriter was puzzled, ”What do you mean?”

The director laughed, meaningfully, ”If Chen Zi were that easy to deal with, just scaring him wouldn’t make him retreat, and he wouldn’t have people gnashing their teeth at him behind his back. Even if he’s not Shang Yang’s agent, he bit off a big piece from the capital, otherwise where did he get the down payment for a house? He must be paying back the loan now, which is why he’s even doing an assistant’s work, isn’t it?”

Yang Lusi worried, ”Is he still paying off debts? Could he have taken someone else’s money to harm Zaizai? He’s not a good person; I’m really worried!”

The director shook his head, amused, ”He’d be stupid to betray Little Taotie. He’s working with Chairman Cheng, money is no issue. No need to worry about him taking someone else’s money to betray Little Taotie. Who can offer more money than Chairman Cheng? Very few would dare compete with his financial power. Believe it or not, if someone here spends money to buy him off, he’ll take the money without hesitation, and then turn around to report to Chairman Cheng and earn a reward, profiting from both ends!”

Yang Lusi was taken aback, ”Isn’t he afraid the people he’s betrayed will come after him?”

”Come after him? Ha, perfect. Maybe he’s already prepared cameras and recorders, just waiting for someone to come knocking to record evidence for Chairman Cheng! Not only do they not recover their money, but they get recorded as evidence, caught by their weakness! Maybe Chen Zi can even use those recordings to blackmail them into betraying their original master, becoming a pawn in Chen Zi’s hand.”

”Damn!” The screenwriter couldn’t help but curse, ”I wouldn’t dare write a script like this! Incredible! This guy is too incredible!”

The director glanced at the screenwriter’s shining eyes, his mouth twitching, ”You’re not... worshipping that schemer, are you?”

The screenwriter blushed, ”I kind of... like this type.”

”Damn!” This time it was the director’s turn to curse, looking at her with an expression akin to seeing a wonder, ”Aren’t you afraid of being betrayed by him? You actually dare to like someone like that!”

The screenwriter’s lips curved into a smile, ”In scripts, the villain’s love is the most precious! Everyone thinks he’s a bad guy, but once you get into his heart, you’ll find his world is small, his love is small, but he’s able to give it all to just one person! He can go against the whole world for the one he loves!”

...

While ordering food on the phone, Chen Zi inexplicably shivered.

He looked around, feeling as if being watched by someone strange, chills running down his spine.
