Chapter 943: Chapter 943: Who Sold This News to You?
Rong Yan entered with a fearsome aura enveloping her.
The others gaped at her as if they had seen a ghost.
“You—you—you…”
Holy shit, isn’t that Rong Yan?!
What the hell, how did Rong Yan find this place?
When they saw the man behind Rong Yan, everyone held their breath.
Li, Li, Li Shengxiao?!
It had been rumored in the circle that Rong Yan’s rapid rise in status within just over half a year was because she had a high-ranking backer. That backer was someone from the top echelons of Li Group.
Now it seemed, it was not just someone high up.
It was clearly the man at the very top of the pyramid!
The editor-in-chief was the first to regain composure, his face changing color. He watched wide-eyed as Rong Yan walked in and boldly grabbed one of their staff, asking, “Who is in charge here?”
The grabbed staff member, startled or scared, instinctively pointed out, “Our, our editor-in-chief is over there.”
Rong Yan raised an eyebrow and looked over, seeing the sharp-dressed middle-aged woman sitting at the far end. She had the same style as Estelle but from her appearance, she didn’t look like a good person.
Her eyes were too shifty, her face too harsh.
Rong Yan let go and walked over to the person in charge. She placed her beer on the desk of the person in charge and spoke calmly, “I’m here for just one thing today, who sold you the news?”
The woman, approached by Rong Yan, changed her expression repeatedly, casting wary glances behind Rong Yan then quickly looking away. She managed a forced smile as she stood up, trying to smooth things over, “Miss Rong, why didn’t you announce your visit? Your agent had already called us and we had agreed to take down the news. We’re handling it, but it might take some time. Miss Rong, maybe you could wait a little…”
Rong Yan sneered coldly, not buying her nonsense at all.
She had overheard the inside buzzing about buying trending searches and discussing partnerships with other media when she first came in.
Realizing this, the woman then gestured to her assistant with her eyes, “What are you waiting for? Why don’t you bring over two cups of coffee now!”
The assistant, encountering a celebrity personally showing up for the first time, hurriedly responded when called, “I—I’ll go right away.”
“No need.”
Rong Yan addressed the host, turning back to the person still trying to smooth things over and stall for time, “I came to you not to care about when you will take down the news. I said, I’m here for just one thing, who sold this news to you?”
The middle-aged woman felt almost suffocated by Rong Yan’s overwhelming presence, secretly amazed that such a young lady could exhibit such a commanding aura, and worried about the discreetly standing man behind Rong Yan, seeming like an invisible mountain dominating the room. Smiling nervously, she stammered, “This… we don’t know. This afternoon my inbox suddenly received an anonymous email, and the video was attached in it.”
Rong Yan scoffed loudly, in her face, swung the beer bottle in her hand. With a snap, glass shattered everywhere, startling the timid girls in the studio into screaming.
Beer pooled on the floor, and Rong Yan calmly picked up the broken beer bottle, pressing the sharp end against the middle-aged woman’s neck, “Do you think I’m a fool? If you had just received an anonymous tip, you should have contacted me first to ask for money to buy the information. You published it directly without even trying to find me, which means someone paid you off.”
