Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 559: Zhang Xinjie’s Chat Records

Fu Shihan sat in the restaurant watching her fleeing figure, then looked up at the ceiling and sighed heavily.

This sensation of being exploited like a freeloader...

Why does it feel strangely familiar?

After a good night’s sleep and a hearty breakfast, Su Wanxin drove to the office, sorted through the backlog of documents, and then called Su Yao.

The sisters hadn’t been in touch for a few days, and Su Yao hadn’t dared to contact her, unsure how to bring up Fu Shihan.

Being single all these years, some feelings were beyond her grasp, but Su Yao knew her sister must be feeling upset.

"Fu Shihan said he gave you the hotel video, bring it home tonight and let me see."

Su Wanxin got straight to the point, and Su Yao nodded subconsciously, "Okay... are you back?"

"Yeah, at the office."

"I’ll pick you up after work tonight!"

Su Wanxin chuckled, "Alright, come on then, I’ll wait for you at the office."

Su Wanxin hung up the phone and pondered with her chin propped on her hand, then texted Fu Shihan.

There should be very few people who know Fu Shihan’s schedule, at least it’s not something that can be found online.

So Zhang Xinjie knowing his exact room in the hotel must mean someone leaked it, and she needed to find out who.

The suspicions she had were also considering by Fu Shihan, who was already investigating it. In another day or two at most, everything would come to light.

"Brother, have you and Wanwan made up?"

Fu Shili was also in Fu Shihan’s office, and from the look on his face as he replied to the message, he knew who it was from.

These days, Fu Shihan had been grim-faced like a mourner, treating everyone as if they were an enemy, making even Fu Shili tread carefully around him.

"What do you mean made up?" Fu Shihan replied lazily. "When were we not okay?"

His cheeky tone showed that he was indeed in a good mood.

Fu Shili laughed and breathed a sigh of relief, "I heard from Sheng Qian that the movie Zhang Xinjie was filming has halted production, and the producers seem to be looking to recast."

Replacing a lead actor midway through production is surely no small expense. If possible, the producers wouldn’t want to do it, but the pressure was just too great.

Fu Shihan had already spread the word, warning that anyone who dares to work with Zhang Xinjie is crossing him. With that threat out there, who would dare to provoke him?

Zhang Xinjie’s career was effectively put on pause, yet she felt no imminent danger.

Her popularity had exploded in the last two years, and she had been working herself to exhaustion. With a rare opportunity to rest, she was actually quite happy.

Besides, regarding the hotel incident...

There hadn’t been any major moves from Fu Shihan’s side. Apart from sending a lawyer’s letter through a law firm, there were no other actions.

This made Zhang Xinjie lower her guard, believing that in another ten days or so, everything would blow over.

When the time came, she planned to apologize to Fu Shihan, claiming it was a hotel staff mistake with her room card, saying it wasn’t intentional, and all would be resolved.

Zhang Xinjie spent her days leisurely at home, eating snacks, playing games, sending messages to friends. Little did she know, all her chats were displayed on Fu Shihan’s computer.

After the incident, he had created a Trojan horse program, sending it to her phone disguised as a news link.

And naturally, the news headline was the scandal between Zhang Xinjie and him.

When Zhang Xinjie saw the news alert, she clicked on it without a second thought, unaware that from that moment, her phone was being monitored.
