Super Zoo

Chapter 276 The Intent to Kill Me Never Dies (Four Updates)

suming hadn't logged into his weibo account for just two days, and when he logged in again, the comments section had already exploded.

a video had been shared, the one from the other day on the back mountain, where nangong yan rejected ren chen in front of everyone. a fan with a weibo account was present and recorded it on their phone, then uploaded it online.

the main elements of a story include: time, place, characters, and events. whether a story is captivating depends a lot on these factors!

nothing tugs at people's heartstrings quite like gossip, and the 'event' captured in the video was extremely exciting; it had happened just a couple of days ago, and the location was at the well-known fox home;

as for the characters, they were even more compelling—one was the weibo account holder, the familiar park manager comrades, and the other was a beautiful young famous journalist; even the villain was a suave, handsome man!

not a single piece of gossip has ever been so closely tied to the fans' lives! it's like live gossip happening right around them!

all over weibo, it was boiling with activity, with several hundred more comments appearing, all about this video.nôv(el)b\\jnn

"what a woman of clear love and hate!"

"this girl is too direct, isn't she? that handsome guy looks so pitiful..."

"clearly, the values are all wrong! so what if he's handsome? does being handsome give you the right to be the third party, to pry into someone else's relationship?! park manager, i support you!"

"park manager, you're just a wimp. if someone dared chase my girlfriend, i'd slaughter their whole family! i hope you wear a green hat for life, unfollowed with determination!"

"...is there something wrong with this person's brain?"

"but honestly, the third male lead is really handsome, park manager, introduce him to me... what a waste, shame on that..."

"actually, the park manager is also quite handsome. he could've relied on his looks, why the hell should he compete with skills?"

"park manager, when did you get a girlfriend? whoo-whoo-whoo, can you hear the sound of my heart breaking?"

"wow, i've seen this third male lead before, my classmate works at their company, and i heard the company is getting ready to go public on the startup board. park manager, you've met your match!"

...

the real surprise, this gossip video, had a better promotional effect than advertising on tv—weibo followers were shooting up, and at this rate, it looked like it would soon break through the hundred thousand mark.

"is this even possible?"

those who can't keep up with trends are doomed to be eliminated, and after careful study, suming identified three types of new followers because of the video.

"that day you said the key was nangong yan, and there was no need to trouble her boyfriend. i actually disagreed, but you seemed so confident at the time that i didn't speak up."

yang meng seemed to have a knack for stirring trouble. when it came to backstabbing, she came alive, animatedly saying, "with a girl like nangong yan, who has someone in her heart, she can't make room for another. so as long as she's dating, it will be hard for you to make a move. besides, what gives her the nerve to be so tough? is it just because her boyfriend has some money? if her boyfriend is ruined, there might still be an opportunity for you."

ren chen stared expressionlessly at yang meng, silently listening to her until she finished, "you also have a point, but it's almost all nonsense. her boyfriend is the deputy director of a zoo, how am i supposed to take action? besides, i definitely can't appear in this myself."

if ren chen personally went against suming, even if he defeated suming, nangong yan would ultimately resent him for it. plus, ren chen knew that his financial and social power wasn't enough to effortlessly crush suming, especially since suming, as the deputy director of a zoo, a public figure, had complex connections with government officials; he was even more difficult to deal with.

"there wasn't an opportunity before, but now the zoo has just undergone restructuring, and there's a great chance right in front of us. didn't you go to fox home the other day..." yang meng told him her plan.

after hearing her out, ren chen closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, contemplating for a moment. going over yang meng's words in his mind, with his experience, he found it to indeed be a viable method. even if it didn't completely topple suming at once, it could still get him into significant trouble.

whether in officialdom or in business, the last thing anyone wants is 'trouble'. a minor issue could lead to a slew of complications and problems, and one misstep could affect everything. this was especially true for semi-public figures like suming.

for example, ren chen himself was in such a situation. his company was preparing for an ipo on the growth enterprise market. any slight unfavorable news could affect the ipo, and any impact on the ipo would immediately affect a series of collaborative projects at the company.

"what do you gain by telling me all this?" ren chen asked.

"me? we're friends, of course, i'm on your side to help you..."

"that way of talking is treating me like an idiot," ren chen said, shaking his head.

yang meng shivered under ren chen's gaze, clenched her teeth and said bitterly, "if it wasn't for her boyfriend, i would still be the popular host at the station. how could i have ended up like this today! if you can ruin her boyfriend, you'll be avenging me. as for nangong yan, without her boyfriend's support and constant supply of exclusive news tips, how could she, a green girl, compete with me?!"

"oh, i see, you want to use another's hand to kill," said ren chen.

"our goals are at least aligned," yang meng smiled again, "boss ren, the video of you being rejected has been posted online, go see how people are laughing at you, you've become a laughingstock. can you really swallow this blow, to be stepped on by some country bumpkin?"

due to frequent meetings of influential individuals at the foreign business club, security and confidentiality measures were extremely tight there. each private room was completely soundproof and even equipped with anti-eavesdropping devices, so yang meng and ren chen could speak freely within, with no reservations.

the two of them talked for several hours in the private room and, getting caught up in the moment, they went at it once more, reliving old memories.

after they left, a nondescript little wasp crawled out from under the sofa, buzzing as it flew out through the open door.

"hahaha, finally back to the predictable script. i knew it, someone as wealthy and successful as ren chen wouldn't give up just like that!"

suming retracted his soul attachment ability, stroking his chin as his eyes rolled around.

he hadn't expected yang meng to be involved. to put it bluntly, she was even more detestable than ren chen.
