BXBX NOVEL Chapter 59 - Strike back
But he chose to do this, also because he also had his own worries.
“I am a little worried about the Ruan Yu. I don’t know how his situation is now. I’m at the capital star, he’s too far away for me to help him. I don’t know if Cai Xin has arranged anything there. In case my counterattack provokes her, who knows what she might do...”
Since the original owner and Cai Xin were indifferent towards each other, the only reason he would have continued to remit money to her for so many years was definitely because of his brother, Ruan Yu.
Now that they will make a counterattack, he was afraid to beat the grass and startle the snake. A cornered dog would jump over a wall, even Ruan Yu’s safety would not be assured.
Understanding his concerns, He Yun Yi immediately said, “We have already sent people to your hometown to investigate the situation. We also found the hospital where your brother is located. I can immediately have people go to the hospital to ensure that nothing will happen to him. If you really can’t rest at ease, you can go there in person. There are people who can take care of things to ensure that everything goes smoothly.”
Ruan Tang knitted his brows and was lost deep in thought. Finally, he said, “I’d still like to personally take a trip there.” If possible, Ruan Tang wanted to transfer Ruan Yu over. From a medical perspective, the capital would have better facilities than their remote planet.
Seeing that his mind had been made up, He Yun Chen’s brow wrinkled slightly and he decisively said, “I will accompany you.”
“This...this might not be so good? It would be too much trouble for you.” He instinctively wanted to refuse.
“It’s no trouble. Anyway, I still have a lot of vacation leaves that I haven’t been able to avail. I’ll just give myself a vacation.” He Yun Chen saw what he still wanted to say something and added, “The star field where your hometown is located is too isolated. Star thieves and cosmic beasts are often found in that area. If you go by yourself, I wouldn’t be able to rest at ease.”
With He Yun Chen looking at him with those deep eyes, Ruan Tang didn’t know how to refuse. He also didn’t know how his ears suddenly felt burning hot. He could only awkwardly say, “That’s good. Ok...”
He Yun Yi couldn’t help but roll his eyes. In a sour manner, he said, “Then, your return to your hometown is settled. If you can collect evidence, you can take your brother’s custody from your mother. With A’Chen accompanying you, these things will be easily resolved. But what will you do about matters on Weibo?”
“Really?” When Ruan Tang heard that his brother’s custody could be transferred from Cai Xin, his eyes immediately lit up. Ruan Yu was the person the original owner cared most about, and he has decided to take care of the other party in the original owner’s stead. If he could get custody, it would be for the best.
“Of course. You are now an adult. You have a steady income and you’re his blood relative. As long as you can prove that Cai Xin is an unqualified mother, you can sue for Ruan Yu’s custody.”
“@Ruan Tang V: [Image1][Image2][Image3][Image4][Image5] Actually, after I woke up from the hospital, I lost all my memory about my past. I have been looking for ways to contact my family, but there weren’t any clues. I had also asked Marshal He to help me investigate my money transfer history, because I wanted to know where I had been sending these large sums of money each month.”
He posted a microblog in response and posted three pictures. One was a medical certificate given by the hospital, which proved that the brain was damaged resulting in memory loss. The second picture was his personal registration information. There really was no clue about his family. Because of the empire’s absolute protection of individual human and privacy rights, as an ordinary person without power, Ruan Tang didn’t have the means to find his family members. The third, fourth and fifth were long pictures, which recorded Ruan Tang’s uninterrupted transfer of money signing with the entertainment company. The amount, over time, grew from a few hundreds and thousands in the beginning to tens of thousands to hundred thousand and even millions, later on. This went on until five years ago when it stopped when as everyone knew, he was rendered unconscious due to an accident on set.
These pieces of evidence and the detailed transfer records have convincingly proved that he wasn’t the selfish ingrate who didn’t care about whether his family lived or died that Cai Xin claimed he was.
Then, He Yun Chen and He Yun Yi also forwarded his Weibo post, not only confirming that he did ask their help to find his family and investigate the transfer records, but they also posted the information regarding the receiving account, which was indeed Cai Xin’s account.
After so many years, the amount Cai Xin received from Ruan Tang was conservatively estimated to have been tens of millions. How could her life be as bitter as she claimed?
Even Xinghai Entertainment, Raun Tang’s former agency, did not remain silent. They immediately sent out an audio recording. In the recording, this woman who claimed to be Ruan Tang’s mother was almost in a hysterics. No matter how the other party explained to her that Ruan Tang’s condition needed the money for treatment she still insistently demanded compensation. Not only was she displaying her cruelty but she was also making an unreasonable scene. She was completely different from the weak and poor looking woman in the video Wei Zhuo released.
These heavy hammers, combined with the long Weibo post from Ruan Tang’s fans illustrated the facts very clearly.
[Today’s sugary thing: I feel bad for my Tang Tang. I never would have thought that he had memory loss!]
[ Ruan Tang National Support Association V: In the video, Ms. Cai has said at least one sentence that wasn’t a lie. She really did not fulfill the responsibility of a mother! @Wei Zhuo V @Cai Xin, please apologize to Ruan Tang! ]
[Can’t stop hugging trees: That’s right! No wonder her hand didn’t have a single callus. With millions to hold, her days must have been too happy! And now I suspect that the she didn’t use the money for Ruan Tang’s brother. Although this kind of genetic disease is difficult to cure, but with tens of millions of GM coins, how could his condition still be so miserable?]
[Aimiao’s flower: This woman is so callous towards Ruan Tang. Could she be good to any of her children? I think she didn’t spend much money on her youngest son’s illness. She just spent it all for herself!]
[My Tang is the most handsome: the screenshots were already self-evident. The remittances lasted for six years. From the time our Tang Tang wasn’t so famous and only had tiny roles, he was already starting to send money. Later, the money he sent got bigger and bigger. Adding up to tens of millions! When he debuted, he wasn’t even an adult yet. How can this woman be so shameless to say that Ruan Tang abandoned her and his brother?!]
[Madam Qu: This woman must have seen that Ruan Tang had so much money now and wanted a piece of the spoils! She’s just like a vampire! If she loves her child so much, when Ruan Tang was injured, how can she never said a word? She even wanted to take Ruan Tang’s life-saving money to squander away! She really makes me want to vomit!]
[Qi Jiu Mo Ran: I have never seen such a shameless mother! She’s like a vampire! Is she really his biological mother? ! ]
The netizens were instantly in an uproar. They couldn’t imagine there was a “mother” who was this disgraceful and shameless in the entire world, and they began to curse at her. Countless netizens rushed to Wei Zhuo’s Weibo and frantically flooded his page.
[ID24513916: To think I actually sympathized with this woman. I never thought it was actually like this! Some people really don’t deserve to be a mother! ]
[Genuine Devil: I knew it! I definitely knew my Tang Tang wasn’t such a person! ]
[Mysterious Fragrance: Dog Zhuo is courting disaster again, then let me help you on your way. @Zhuo Jing V, Atty. Zhou, we can add a few more charges in the indictment. ]
***************
In a high-end hotel room, Cai Xin had her eyes closed while enjoying the massage service of the smart robots.
Life in the capital was so good. Not at all like her backwater planet, where you couldn’t enjoy any of these things, where there were even only a few who could play on the Star Network. When she gets the money, she must stay in the capital. Ruan Tang was so rich, why wasn’t it his filial obligation to give that money to her? If it weren’t for her, could he grow up so well?
She was quietly scheming about it when the door was suddenly opened. Cai Xin was startled and she quickly opened her eyes. She saw the familiar middle-aged man come in, and her face quickly changed into a happy expression.
“Wei Zhuo! You’re here! Has there been any progress? Did that stinky boy contact you?”
The perpetually gloomy-looking Wei Zhuo glared fiercely at Cai Xin. “Things have changed, take a look for yourself!”
Cai Xin’s heart suddenly “squeaked”. She immediately jumped out of bed and drove away the smart robot masseuse. She hurriedly opened her light brain and looked at Ruan Tang’s Weibo, then her face flushed red in anger.
“How could this be? Why are these people cursing at me?!” she cried unwillingly. “I am his mother. He should provide for me!”
Wei Zhuo looked at her coldly, “How can this be? I want to ask you that question! Didn’t you say that he hadn’t given you much money? Is this much money ‘not much’? You also said that with that invalid with you, he would definitely not dare to face you directly. Well, what about now!?” Wei Zhuo screamed at Cai Xin angrily, but in fact, he was not as angry as he looked.
This woman was discovered by Ye Shao’s men. Before, Ye Shao hired him to go and blacken Ruan Tang. With such a ready-made opportunity, he naturally wouldn’t just let it go. But nowadays Ruan Tang had a lot of connections and people supporting him from behind. Ye Shao was afraid personally get involved. He began to form a scheme. He thought that Wei Zhuo must definitely hate Ruan Tang to the bone now and he thought of letting Wei Zhuo handle this. Wei Zhuo was already an abandoned child. If this thing went belly up, he was going to be made to take the blame and leave Ye Shao completely unrelated to this matter.
But little did Ye Shao know that Wei Zhuo’s most hated person in his heart was actually this heartless and cruel Ye Shao.
In fact, when Wei Zhuo first saw this woman named Cai Xin, he already saw her true face. She was basically a woman who was extremely selfish and loved vanity to the extreme, completely unlike the strong and independent single mother that she portrayed herself to be. He was a paparazzi who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, after all. He naturally learned how to see through people.
However, he deliberately concealed this point, only packaging her the way she wanted. He took the video and sent it to Ye Shao. Unexpectedly, Ye Shao actually believed it. He thought it was a big chance to make life difficult for Ruan Tang. Ye Shao excitedly instructed him to use it to completely discredit Ruan Tang.
If he could attack Ruan Tang, he was naturally happy to do so. Although this matter was plain “sewage” and would be simple to clarify, but these kinds of explosive allegations, as long as he hired water armies to guide the public opinion, he could stretch out the battle a little longer. After a day or two, those netizens who were impatient, naturally, would be too lazy to pay attention to the follow-up. No matter whether Ruan Tang succeeded in clarifying the facts in the end, there would always be these people who would continue to tirelessly send out his “unfilial” accusation. These plausible kind of sewage will become a black mark that Ruan Tang wouldn’t be able to wash himself free of.
He just never expected that this time, Ruan Tang’s reaction would be so fast. It took only a few hours for him to counterattack. What’s more, Marshal He and Academy President He also stood up to testify for him. Even his former entertainment company sent out those recordings. It was a set of direct and clear-cut combination punches that directly broke the wave of the public opinion he had just created.
But it was alright.
He looked at Cai Xin with such a vicious gaze that the other party was scared stiff.
“What? What could I do... If I didn’t say that, would you have helped me?” She craned her neck and defended herself. Frustrated and helpless, she asked, “What should I do now?”
She was truly a stupid and poisonous woman. Unexpectedly, she was quite similar to Ye Shao.
Wei Zhuo leisurely appreciated her panicked appearance, then with exasperating slowness said, “What are you afraid of? Don’t we have a backup plan?”
The target of this backup plan was no longer Ruan Tang though...
Hehe, he really wanted to see what kind of expression the high and mighty Ye Shao would later have.
