Chapter 588: Was a Trap

Brother Fatty’s expression changed. He glared at Fang Mo’er and turned his head away without saying a word.

There were only a few people who knew about his embarrassing incident. If they were to discuss it now and let everyone on the bus know about it, he would truly be humiliated. As for the issue of having been filmed, he would just leave it to his manager to handle. He would not have to worry about it anymore.

Shi Mo watched as Fang Mo’er defended him with a smile on his face. He was very pleased.

The bus suddenly quieted down and no one spoke anymore. The atmosphere was very gloomy and the only sound that could be heard was the pitter-patter of rain on the roof of the bus.

In the Star Dream Era office.

At the moment, Shi Yu was alone. Without any sense of propriety, he sat on the chair while his legs rested on the table. He was on the phone with someone with a smug look on his face.

“Don’t worry. This time, we can definitely rely on this plan. In a place like that, there isn’t any phone signal at all. If anything happens, no one will know about it.” He held the phone in one hand as he tapped on the armrest of the chair with the other.

Xue Ni’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

Xue Ni genuinely had feelings for Shi Mo. When she heard Shi Yu’s assurance, she was happy that Fang Mo’er would meet with some misfortune. However, at the same time, she was worried about Shi Mo’s safety.

She could not help but ask anxiously, “Yes, but we already agreed that we can’t hurt Shi Mo.”

Shi Yu laughed coldly, not bothering to hide the sinister look in his eyes. Xue Ni could not see it anyway.

However, he comforted her, “Don’t worry, Sister Xue Ni. I’m only setting up a small accident. I’m targeting Fang Mo’er, not my brother. My brother will be fine.”

After receiving Shi Yu’s assurance, Xue Ni finally felt relieved.

However, she still asked with some uncertainty, “Are you sure that you can really break them up this time? Fang Mo’er isn’t a simple person. In the past, I thought she was just greedy for money. I didn’t expect her to have a brain.”

“You didn’t even grasp the good opportunity that you had at that time. My brother even found out about what you had done. Even if they break up in the future, are you sure you still have a chance?”

Of course, he was not really thinking about Xue Ni, but for himself.

If Shi Mo “accidentally” got into an accident at this time, then the entire Shi family’s estate would be his.

Everyone always compared him to Shi Mo. Shi Mo was the eldest son of the Shi family, and everything he did was always done perfectly. As his younger brother, Shi Yu had always been considered inferior to him in every aspect. However, if he disappeared, no one would ever make this comparison again.

Usually, he was protected by his bodyguards. It was a rare occasion that he had not brought his bodyguards with him. Furthermore, he had even gone to such a remote place. Even the heavens were supporting him. With such a heavy rainstorm, he had completely lost contact with the outside world.

If something happened there, no one would think that it had anything to do with him. The only person who knew about this was Xue Ni. However, Xue Ni was a little lovesick and was a little difficult to deal with.

Shi Yu wondered if something really happened to Shi Mo, how would he explain it to Xue Ni without incriminating himself at the same time.

Just as he was thinking, Shen Yue suddenly came knocking on the door.

Shi Yu hurriedly adjusted his sitting posture and acted as if he was reading some information. Only then did he let Shen Yue in.

“What’s the matter, Sister Shen?” Shi Yu asked in a docile manner. He was a completely different person from his previous appearance.

Shen Yue had an anxious expression on her face. She said to Shi Yu, “Miss Fang went to participate in the haunted house adventure for the variety show. Suddenly, I haven’t been able to contact her today.”

Shi Yu said, “Wasn’t it a requirement of that variety show that guests are not allowed to bring their cell phones while they’re filming? How long has it been? She should still be in the midst of filming.”

Shen Yue shook her head and said, “That’s not right. The artiste’s cell phones will be handed over to the program team for safekeeping. Because they’re not allowed to bring their assistants either, every company will require their cell phones not to be switched off in order to ensure the safety of the artiste. The person managing each quest will be able to call at any time to ensure the status of the artistes. If the artistes are not able to pick up, the program team still can.”

As she spoke, Shen Yue showed the phone records to Shi Yu. “I’ve called Miss Fang a few times, but all of the records show that the calls haven’t been able to get through. I’ve even contacted the other artistes’ management companies, but they couldn’t get through either. This time, the filming location is very special so I’m afraid that something bad might have happened.”

Shen Yue’s reaction made Shi Yu very dissatisfied. He had not expected Shen Yue to be so attentive towards Fang Mo’er.

He pondered for a moment before trying to comfort her, “Don’t worry, Sister Shen. My brother has gone there too. With him by her side, what can possibly happen? However, my brother has gone there in secret so please don’t tell anyone. If my brother finds out that I revealed it, he will beat me up.”
