Chapter 1209 Bottom Line
"I know it's hard for you to accept, but this is the fact." Qin Yuanqing sighed.
"I saw them plotting with my own eyes, discussing how to deal with you, and they also said..."
Qin Yuanqing seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he had something to hide.
"What else did they say?" Jiang Mubai asked anxiously.
"They said you were a stumbling block to their success and they had to get rid of you."
Jiang Mubai felt a blackout in front of her eyes and she almost lost her balance. She held the phone tightly, her knuckles turning white.
"Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?" Cheng Yunchuan's voice suddenly came from behind.
Jiang Mubai turned around abruptly and saw Cheng Yunchuan looking at her with concern.
"Nothing... nothing." Jiang Mubai forced a smile, trying to hide his inner panic.
"You don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?" Cheng Yunchuan reached out and touched her forehead: "Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Jiang Mubai's body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously avoided Cheng Yunchuan's touch.
"I'm fine, just a little tired." Jiang Mubai said, turned and walked into the bedroom, closing the door heavily.
Cheng Yunchuan stood outside the door, looking at the closed door with a worried look on his face. He didn't know what was wrong with Jiang Mubai and why he suddenly became so cold to him.
Jiang Mubai leaned against the door, tears silently falling. She didn't know whether she should believe Qin Yuanqing's words, but deep in her heart, she had an uneasy premonition.
She took out her cell phone and looked through Cheng Yunchuan's photos and videos. The images that once made her feel sweet and happy now felt like sharp knives piercing her heart.
Is all this fake? Is Cheng Yunchuan's gentleness, his thoughtfulness, his affection just a disguise?
Jiang Mubai's heart felt like it was torn apart.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She couldn't be defeated like this. She had to find out the truth and find out who Cheng Yunchuan was.
The next day, Jiang Mubai left home on the pretext of going out to relax. She came to the place where Qin Yuanqing had agreed to meet, a hidden cafe.
Qin Yuanqing had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Jiang Mubai, he stood up and greeted him.
"You came."
Jiang Mubai nodded without saying anything, his eyes full of vigilance.
"I know you have a lot of questions, and I will tell you everything I know." Qin Yuanqing handed Jiang Mubai a cup of coffee.
"But I hope you are prepared that the truth may be painful for you."
Jiang Mubai took the coffee but didn't drink it. He just stared into Qin Yuanqing's eyes and said, "You tell me, I'm ready."
Qin Yuanqing took a deep breath and began to tell everything he knew.
It turned out that Cheng Yunchuan and Ren Xueer had known each other for a long time, and there was a secret deal between them that was unknown to the public.
Ren Xueer helped Cheng Yunchuan gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, while Cheng Yunchuan used his own resources to help Ren Xueer suppress his competitors.
The appearance of Jiang Mubai broke the balance between them. Jiang Mubai's talent and hard work made Cheng Yunchuan feel threatened. He was worried that Jiang Mubai would steal his limelight, so he teamed up with Ren Xueer to destroy Jiang Mubai.
"They not only planned this video incident, but also planned many more vicious conspiracies." Qin Yuanqing's tone became a little heavy.
“They even want to….”
Qin Yuanqing didn't continue speaking, but Jiang Mubai had already guessed what he wanted to say.
Her body trembled slightly, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She couldn't believe that Cheng Yunchuan could be so cruel and want to kill her.
"Why are you telling me this?" Jiang Mubai raised his head, his eyes full of confusion.
Qin Yuanqing smiled bitterly: "Because I don't want to see you get hurt by them."
"But, you before..." Jiang Mubai thought of how Qin Yuanqing had once pursued her madly, and she became even more confused.
"I admit that I once liked you." Qin Yuanqing admitted frankly.
"But now, I just hope you can be safe and happy."
Jiang Mubai's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She didn't know whether she should believe Qin Yuanqing, but his words were like a seed that took root in her heart.
"I know it's hard for you to believe me, but I can guarantee with my life that what I say is true."
Qin Yuanqing's eyes were full of sincerity: "If you don't believe it, I can take you to see someone who can prove everything I said."
"Who?" Jiang Mubai asked.
"Cheng Yunchuan's personal assistant, Li Ming."
Jiang Mubai's heart skipped a beat. Li Ming was the person Cheng Yunchuan trusted the most. If he was willing to testify, then Cheng Yunchuan's guilt would be irrefutable.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Jiang Mubai took a deep breath, his eyes full of determination.
Qin Yuanqing brought Jiang Mubai to a remote bar where Li Ming had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Jiang Mubai, a trace of panic flashed across his face.
"Li Ming, tell Miss Jiang everything you know." Qin Yuanqing said calmly.
Li Ming hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. He took a deep breath and began to tell everything he knew.
His words confirmed everything Qin Yuanqing said. Cheng Yunchuan and Ren Xueer planned this video incident together, and they also planned more vicious conspiracies.
Jiang Mubai felt cold all over as she listened to Li Ming's story. She couldn't believe that she had been deceived by the person she trusted the most for so long.
At this moment, the door of the bar was suddenly pushed open and Cheng Yunchuan walked in. He saw Jiang Mubai and Qin Yuanqing at a glance, and his face instantly became gloomy.
"What are you doing here?" Cheng Yunchuan's voice was icy cold.
Jiang Mubai raised his head, his eyes full of anger and disappointment: "Cheng Yunchuan, why did you do this?"
Cheng Yunchuan sneered: "What did I do? Stop slandering me!"
"Li Ming has told me everything." Jiang Mubai pointed at Li Ming and said, "Do you still want to quibble?"
Cheng Yunchuan's expression became even uglier. He glared at Li Ming fiercely, then turned around and wanted to leave.
Jiang Mubai shouted, "Stop! Do you think you can escape?"
Cheng Yunchuan stopped and turned around slowly, his eyes full of viciousness. "Jiang Mubai, you'd better not challenge my bottom line."
"Your bottom line? Do you still have a bottom line?" Jiang Mubai sneered.
"You are willing to hurt me for your own benefit. What qualifications do you have to talk about the bottom line?"
Cheng Yunchuan laughed at himself: "Do you believe them but not me? Mu Bai, you've let me down."
After hearing what Cheng Yunchuan said, Jiang Mubai clenched her fists tightly, not knowing what to choose. Her intuition told her that she should believe Cheng Yunchuan.
Cheng Yunchuan thought of Ren Xueer's words and his eyes dimmed. As expected, Jiang Mubai had never believed in him. How could he do anything to hurt Jiang Mubai?
