Under Xu Tingyu's watchful eye, Shushu and A Xing both registered new accounts and boosted the popularity of content related to Xie Shu.
"Come to think of it, it's really strange. I had a friend who went to Xie Shu's school before. I asked her to find out about Xie Shu, but she found nothing."
Shushu had always known that Xu Tingyu was looking for Xie Shu.
But she didn't know the specific reason.
Later, when she learned about Xu Tingyu's relationship with Qi Shifeng, she also learned about some of the things that had happened four years ago.
She knew that Xie Shu was Xie Yu's younger sister, and Xie Yu was the woman who had destroyed Xu Tingyu's marriage.
However, she didn't understand why Xu Tingyu had been looking for Xie Shu. Why not just go after Xie Yu for revenge?
Had Xie Shu done something even more outrageous than Xie Yu, the home - wrecker?
Seeing that Xu Tingyu was in a relatively good mood, she asked directly.
"Sister Xu, why have you been looking for her? Isn't Xie Yu in Jingdu?"
Xu Tingyu was taken aback for a moment before she smiled. "Do you think I posted that post to take revenge on Xie Yu for destroying my marriage?"
Shushu nodded.
"Although I don't like Xie Yu, and she's really not a good person. She knew I was married and still got involved with my husband. But in this kind of thing, the real culprit is the man.
"Moreover, the situation between us is quite complicated. Anyway, even if I deal with Xie Yu, it's definitely not because of what happened between her and Qi Shifeng.
"I've dealt with her quite a few times because she's just so annoying."
Xu Tingyu was quite speechless when talking about these things.
She hadn't had much experience in relationships. Even after four years, she still couldn't understand how there could be a person like Xie Yu.
If she wanted to be with Qi Shifeng, she should focus on him. Why did she always come to provoke her?
Did she think she would back off and give the man to her?
That would only arouse others' competitive spirit.
However, Xu Tingyu was very clear that the reason she and Qi Shifeng had ended up like this wasn't because of Xie Yu.
Xie Yu was just one of the many problems between them.
Even without Xie Yu, they wouldn't have lasted.
And now, she had exposed Xie Yu mainly to find out where Xie Shu was and whether Xu Jia's heart was in her body.
Shushu was quick - witted and quickly understood.
"So, you suspect that it was her who made such a big deal out of your situation with Yan Zhou and anonymously splashed dirt on you?"
A Xing also understood at this moment. "I said those so - called insiders' statements were strange. They wanted to expose something but didn't dare to completely offend anyone."
Xu Tingyu shook her head. "It's not just that they didn't dare to completely offend. They also knew the exposure was false. If they were too certain, they would get themselves into legal trouble."
The reason she suspected Xie Yu was involved was that Xie Yu liked to do this kind of thing.
Even if she wasn't involved this time, she deserved it. She had a history of such behavior.
Shushu and A Xing both thought she made sense. Anyway, the company's legal department was already collecting evidence and just waiting to sue one by one.
"You guys mainly help me keep an eye out for any useful information about Xie Shu. I'm looking for her to confirm something very important."
Xu Tingyu also explained why she was looking for Xie Shu.
The two didn't ask further but started looking at the comments as requested.
Just as the three of them were huddled together looking at the phone, Xu Tingyu's phone rang.
It was an unknown number.
Shushu's first reaction was, "It can't be those paparazzi, right? Don't answer it."
Xu Tingyu stared at the number for a moment, then her brows relaxed, and there was even a hint of excitement.
Paparazzi couldn't get her number. This person was probably the one she had been waiting for all day.
So she made a shushing gesture to the two of them and then answered the call.
Almost as soon as the call was connected, a stream of scolding came through.
"Xu Tingyu, did you release that PPT online? You're the one having an affair, and you want to use me to divert attention?
"You're really good at acting. You act so innocent on the surface, but you've been involved with so many men behind the scenes. Shifeng was really unlucky to have met you."
It was obvious that Xie Yu was really angry.
Before Xu Tingyu could say a word, she continued.
"I'm telling you, come down and see me now. Otherwise, I'll go straight to those paparazzi and let them know who the one behind the online exposure is."
It turned out that Xie Yu had already arrived at the hotel, but she didn't have an elevator card and couldn't get to the top - floor suite where Xu Tingyu was staying.
Even the emergency exit was guarded by hotel staff.
Not even a fly could get in.
"I may be good at acting, but I'm no match for you. What evidence do you have that it was me who released it?
"You're just a washed - up little star. Do you think you're worthy enough to be used to divert attention from a top - tier celebrity's scandal?"
Xu Tingyu retorted calmly.
Wasn't it a competition of who could act better? She could act too.
Xie Yu had been having a hard time in the entertainment industry in recent years, but she had a high opinion of herself and couldn't stand others saying such things about her.
Especially not from Xu Tingyu.
Since they were teenagers, Xu Tingyu had been her "arch - enemy".
She was jealous of Xu Tingyu's talent, family background, and looks... all the things that Xu Tingyu was born with.
She had worked so hard just to outshine Xu Tingyu.
Four years ago, she thought she had finally achieved that.
The Xu family's company had gone bankrupt, the Xu family had fallen apart, and Xu Tingyu had suffered a lot in the Qi family. She had even disappeared from the dance world.
And what about her?
She was a hot - shot star in the entertainment industry, with the Qi Group as her backer. Everyone gave her respect.
She won awards left and right and had packaged herself as a wealthy and beautiful socialite.
At that time, who didn't envy her?
But why had things changed later?
Qi Shifeng didn't even want to see her. To please Xu Tingyu, his company had officially distanced itself from her on social media.
Later, to protect that bitch Xu Tingyu, he had even gone against the old man.
Even after Xu Tingyu's crazy mother stabbed him, Xu Tingyu had been able to leave with a large sum of money without any consequences.
Why was Xu Tingyu always so lucky?
She had even given birth to the Qi family's eldest grandson. Although the child hadn't been officially introduced to the public, she had heard that Qi Shifeng doted on the child very much.
All these things made her jealous to the point of madness.
And now, Xu Tingyu dared to come back to Jingdu and harm her?
She was so angry that her face contorted.
In the heat of her anger, all her rationality vanished. She let out a sarcastic snort.
"You still won't admit it? Fine. You've been looking for my sister, right? I'm telling you, you'll never find her.
"Xu Tingyu, it must be really painful not to know the truth, right? It must also be a great regret that you didn't get to see your precious little brother for the last time, right?
"Hey, what can you do? Back then, your whole family was like fish on the chopping block, at the mercy of others.
"You should be grateful that it was your brother who was a match. Otherwise, do you think you could be swaggering around with a man like you are now?
"You would have been reduced to ashes and scattered to who knows where."
