[Of course, if you're willing to hand over the soul fragments rewarded after completing the mission to me, I can lend you a little help.]
The System said smugly.
[How about it, have you made up your mind?]
"I refuse."
Although Mingting hadn't known this bastard system for long, he had already seen through its troublemaking nature.
Moreover, the fact that the System was so fixated on the soul fragments meant they were definitely valuable, so they should be kept firmly in his own hands.
Mingting immediately called the police to report that someone was illegally confining women and even suspected involvement in organ trafficking.
Afterwards, he called the business rival of the Xiao Family and provided them with explosive information about Xiao Yu.
"The information is accurate. If President Lin is interested, just bring your people to the 43rd floor of Building 1 in Shangyu Tiancheng. You'll definitely get firsthand news."
Watching Mingting cheerfully stab the Male Lead again and again with a warm smile, the System felt a chill run down its spine.
Stubbornly, it threw out one last remark, [There'll come a day when you beg me.] and then disappeared quickly.
Just as Mingting started to stew the sweet soup, the doorbell of Xiao Yu's house rang.
In order to smoothly resolve the issue with Shi Yunyun, Xiao Yu had specifically arranged for a doctor to perform the surgery at his home in the city center.
As for whether Shi Yunyun would cry and make a fuss after the operation was completed, and whether the Shi Family would seek trouble on behalf of their stepdaughter, Xiao Yu didn't take it to heart.
"Let's begin!"
Xiao Yu nodded to signal the doctor to proceed, while he went to answer the door himself.
He originally thought that it is the company assistant who came, but he didn't expect that there were five policemen standing outside the door.
"We received a report that you're confining a woman…"
Before the other party finished speaking, Xiao Yu was flustered and tried to slam the door shut.
To the officers, this was a clear admission of guilt… a sign of a guilty conscience.
"Don't move!" The door was kicked open, Xiao Yu was restrained, and several officers rushed into the house.
When they saw the doctor in a white coat and surgical equipment in the master bedroom, along with Shi Yunyun being bound and unconscious, their hearts leaped into their throats.
A female officer among them immediately examined Shi Yunyun and found that she had no wounds on her body, but she was unnatural unconsciousness, which is clearly the result of drugs.
This result made everyone look at Xiao Yu and the doctor with disgust.
'Everything the reporter said matched!'
'Fortunately, we arrived in time, and the perpetrators hadn't yet inflicted real harm on the victim.'
"It's not what you think, she is my girlfriend."
Xiao Yu knew he was misunderstood, and hurried to explain.
"Many criminals start by pretending to be in a relationship to gain their victim's trust."
The female officer retorted, her impression of Xiao Yu already poor.
'I heard that this guy's family runs a jewelry company, but who knew what shady dealings were happening behind the scenes?'
This female officer planned to dig deeper once she's back at the station!
"No, I was just here to perform an abortion! Young Master Xiao, say something!" The captured doctor panicked.
'This was supposed to be a simple procedure… how had it turned into a criminal case? The accusation was too heavy! I couldn't bear it!'
"Stop talking nonsense! Take them away!"
Two pairs of silver bracelets were slapped onto Xiao Yu and the doctor's wrists.
"I am a taxpayer, I demand to see my lawyer." Xiao Yu said darkly. No matter how stupid he was, he now realized someone had set him up.
The Xiao Family was already in turmoil, and if today's incident wasn't handled properly, it would only make things worse.
As for the situation at Xiao Yu's side, Mingting followed it via short videos on his phone.
President Lin was very efficient. Not only had he contacted entertainment reporters, but he'd also reached out to two moderately famous livestreamers.
Thanks to the power of the internet, Xiao Yu's actions were quickly exposed.
In no time, all kinds of rumors about Xiao Family's came out, and the public spontaneously denounced Xiao Yu and boycotted Xiao Company's jewelry.
By the time Father Xiao found out, he was so furious he ended up in the hospital.
However, all this has nothing to do with Mingting. After all, he is a law-abiding citizen.
Just like the day before, Mingting continued delivering his 'love-filled care packages' to Shen Tinglan. This time, he bought a bouquet of pale purple tulips.
When Mingting stepped into Chenggu Station on the subway, a girl with twin ponytails clapped a hand over her mouth and squealed softly.
"It's him! It's the Immortal Brother! 'Xian Zong Ye Ye' wasn't lying! Ahhh! What kind of divine face is this?!"
The twin-tailed girl excitedly sent a voice message to her friend, "I can't take it… this is the first time I've ever felt dizzy from sheer beauty! I'm so lightheaded!"
Wu Ye was there too. She had been waiting here since 7:30, for fear of missing Mingting.
Seeing Mingting appear with his crossbody bag, thermos cup, and a bouquet of tulips, the little girl's eyes were immediately filled with tears.
'Wuwu, the Male God has appeared… I don't have to write anything on my face now!'
After a night of anxiety, Wu Ye finally straightened her back with relief.
Sensing the intense emotions directed at him, Mingting looked sideways.
'Isn't she the girl who had secretly photographed me yesterday? Why is she so excited?' Mingting was very confused.
'The Immortal Brother looked at me!'
Wu Ye felt a little thrill, but she also felt a pang of guilt.
She had noticed several people in the subway station secretly taking photos of Mingting. They should be the netizens in the same city who had commented under yesterday's video.
Wu Ye felt very embarrassed. After all, she had posted the secretly taken photos and videos of Mingting on the Internet without the other party's permission and caused trouble for him.
She wanted to explain properly in person and apologize to him.
