The production crew's introductory video and Yuan Qing's little revelations about Yu Yao's university life had both boosted Yu Yao's popularity. In just a few days, Yu Yao's Weibo account had already gained nearly a million fans.

Yu Wan, who had been paying close attention to Yu Yao, refreshed her Weibo every few hours. She could see the number of Yu Yao's fans increasing.

This was a form of mental torture to Yu Wan, but she could not stop this behavior because her anger towards Yu Yao was her motivation for carrying out her plan.

The person Yu Wan contacted sent an encrypted document over. Yu Wan was not satisfied after reading its contents.

Through the dark and mysterious chat window, she asked, "Why are there only photos and videos like this? These were all taken when Yu Yao was unconscious. She only needs to use some excuse about being caught by a hidden camera while staying in a hotel to avoid any accusations. There is no way to cause any real harm to her!"

Her interlocutor, whose name and IP address were hidden by special means, said, "She's just a little girl. Although it's a pity that she escaped us, she can't threaten us at all. I don't understand why you're spending so much effort on taking her down."

Yu Wan's mind was burning with anger. "You don't understand at all. You people were targeted by the police and had no choice but to hide. All of this was caused by her! If she hadn't made the Yu family insist on not letting off the mental hospital, would you all be hiding in a corner of the Internet now? Why would you have lost hundreds of millions of dollars?"

The mysterious person asked, "You people? Aren't you on our side? Are you trying to cut ties with us after the incident?"

The casual question on the screen scared Yu Wan so much that her heart began pounding. She knew that if her reply did not satisfy the other party, there would be an 'accident' one day that would cause her to lose her life.

Yu Wan hurriedly said, "No, I would never. It was just a slip of the tongue."

The mysterious person said, "I know you've always been a smart girl and won't make the wrong choice. I just did a background check of you and I understand why you're targeting Yu Yao. Since you've always been obedient and sensible, I'll give you a gift. I hope you can make good use of it."

After a while, Yu Wan received another encrypted document. This time, the photos and videos inside got her excited.

Yu Wan knew that these photos and videos were fake, but it did not matter. As long as they could be used as weapons, who cared?

There was a holiday lasting a few days before the variety show started filming. This was a rare period of peace for Yu Yao. The comments about her and Yu Jue on the Internet were also harmonious and friendly.

It was probably because her life had been full of ups and downs ever since she started reading books that Yu Yao felt that something was wrong with living such a peaceful life. It was as if there was an even bigger storm brewing somewhere that she didn't know about yet.

Therefore, when she received a call from the Public Security Bureau saying that they hoped she could help with the investigation again, she actually felt relieved.

It was as if a life filled with twists and turns was normal for her.

Yu Yao thought that the person who had asked her to assist in the investigation was the police officer in charge of Gao Cheng's extortion and blackmail case, but she hadn't expected that after she arrived at the police station, the police would reveal that they were the task force in charge of investigating the mental hospital. Of course, the police officer in charge of the extortion and blackmail case was also there.

Yu Yao was confused. Were these two cases related?

A young policewoman brought Yu Yao a cup of hot water and comforted her. "We've already informed your brother. He'll be here soon. Don't be nervous."

Yu Yao couldn't help but say, "I was originally very relaxed, but your caring manner is making me nervous."

The policewoman couldn't help but laugh. "That's a good attitude."

Yu Lang arrived at the police station very quickly. Only then did the police officers begin to explain the situation.

The police officer from the mental hospital investigation's task force said, "You all know what happened previously. However, as we continued to investigate the network equipment at the hospital, we discovered something very strange. Other than the director of the psychiatric hospital, the other staff members who violated the patient also left behind video evidence. However, when we asked about it, most of the staff members expressed that they were completely unaware of the recordings being made. Therefore, we suspect that the director of the psychiatric hospital did not record these videos just to watch them repeatedly. Perhaps this was also a way for him to gain some benefits…"

The police officer in charge of the extortion case added, "We found this clue during our investigation. The nude photos and videos obtained by the suspect Gao Cheng were bought online by another suspect, You Yun.. So far, we have discovered many similar deals."
