Chapter 39: Small Video Exposure, Adding Insult to Injury
The content of the video was somewhat inappropriate for minors, and the protagonist in the video was none other than Qi Weixiong, who had been involved in many scandals recently.
His naked, fat, lecherous appearance was captured in high definition by the camera, leaving nothing to the imagination.
However, another protagonist in the video was carefully pixelated.
It was obvious that this video was specifically targeting Qi Weixiong.
At that moment, Qi Weixiong, who was taking a bath with his female assistant, was completely unaware of what was happening online.
Just as Qi Weixiong was displaying his dominance, his personal phone kept buzzing incessantly, much more frequently than his aging body could handle.
His assistant, with seductive eyes, watched as his phone kept ringing.
“President Qi, your phone is ringing~ Aren’t you going to answer it?”
“Damn it! Who’s calling at this time!”
Qi Weixiong spat out, reaching for the phone beside him while still embracing his lover.
The caller ID showed that it was Guo Xia.
Qi Weixiong coldly snorted and declined the call. However, immediately after hanging up, the phone rang again, not only from Guo Xia but also from several other missed calls.
“President Qi, didn’t we agree to spend some private time together today~”
“Yes, yes, we did. How could I forget? Now, no one should disturb us.”
“Then why don’t you just turn off your phone~ That way, no one can disturb us~”
The assistant’s slender, fair fingers slowly traced Qi Weixiong’s chest, teasingly.
“Alright, I’ll do as you say~”
Qi Weixiong flashed what he thought was a charming smile, but in reality, it was rather oily, as he turned off his phone in front of his assistant and began to caress her tender skin.
*Qi Residence*
Not long after Guo Xia saw the online news, someone from the Qi Group called her, saying they couldn’t reach Qi Weixiong on his work phone and asked her to contact him.
Guo Xia had no idea where Qi Weixiong was. She tried calling his private number several times, but it was always busy.
“What is Qi Weixiong up to! He doesn’t answer his phone, and who knows which woman’s arms he’s lying in now!”
Guo Xia paced back and forth angrily.
Ever since she first slept with Qi Weixiong, she knew he was a womanizer. If she hadn’t gotten pregnant with Leilei, Qi Weixiong wouldn’t even have acknowledged her.
But she was only after the wealth of the Qi family. Whether Qi Weixiong loved her or not, and to what extent, she didn’t care.
After marrying Qi Weixiong, she had long known that he had other women outside, but she didn’t mind at all.
If Qi Weixiong wanted to play around, let him play. As long as he provided her with enough money.
She had always thought that Qi Weixiong must have had some means to rise to his current position, but she never expected that recent scandals would keep popping up.
The previous scandals weren’t that damaging, as there was no substantial evidence.
But now, with the video directly exposed, let’s see how he explains this.
“Mom, don’t be angry, I have an idea.”
Qi Lei walked over and put his arm around Guo Xia’s shoulder, leading her to the sofa.
“Qi Weixiong first acted unrighteously towards us, so now, don’t blame us for being unjust towards him.”
Qi Lei poured a glass of water for Guo Xia and placed it beside her, continuing:
“Mom, it’s because you were too soft-hearted before. We should have considered our own future long ago. That old guy is completely unreliable. He’s been good to so many people, who knows if he’ll even remember us in his will when he dies. We’d better take the initiative and seize control.”
“Leilei, I’ve made up my mind. The two of us need to take responsibility for ourselves. We can’t rely on others for hope! Son, tell me your thoughts.”
Qi Lei leaned in close to Guo Xia’s ear and whispered his plan.
After hearing Qi Lei’s plan, Guo Xia affectionately patted his head and said, “Good, good, good! Well done, Leilei. The best decision I ever made was giving birth to you.”
Unbeknownst to Qi Weixiong, the plan secretly agreed upon by Guo Xia and Qi Lei was being put into action while he indulged himself with his lover.
The speed and breadth of the internet’s dissemination were astonishing. The views of Qi Weixiong’s private video had already exceeded tens of millions.
Although the PR department of the Qi Group had immediately requested its removal upon discovery, they couldn’t keep up with the internet users’ ability to spread the content.
It was only after Qi Weixiong had finished his enjoyable time and was lazily browsing his phone in the arms of his lover that he found out about the leaked video.
“Damn it!”
Qi Weixiong cursed and quickly called the person in charge of managing public opinion at the company.
It was only then that he realized his phone’s “Do Not Disturb” mode was still on. After turning it off, numerous messages flooded in, causing his phone to freeze for a few minutes.
He promptly returned the call to the person he needed to reach.
The call was quickly answered.
“President Qi, you finally answered the call!”
“How long has the video been online?!”
“It’s been there since this morning… I immediately arranged for it to be taken down, but the spontaneous spread by internet users was too fast, and we couldn’t reach you in time…”
“Damn it! How’s the PR department handling it?”
“The head of the PR department has already briefed me. They’ve sent legal letters and refutation articles to the leading internet users. It would be best if you personally gave some instructions.”
“Alright, I got it. You keep an eye on online developments. Whenever there’s a new video, arrange for its removal.”
“Understood, President Qi.”
After hanging up, Qi Weixiong immediately called the PR department.
It took a few attempts before the call was answered.
“President Qi.”
“I’ve been informed about the online situation. Now, send me the PR documents to my WeChat.”
“President Qi, the PR documents were sent to your WeChat this morning…”
“Okay, I’ll take a look and call you back later.”
“Okay, understood.”
Qi Weixiong rubbed his temples. He needed to stay calm now, without losing his composure.
After roughly skimming through the messages on his phone, Qi Weixiong felt his headache intensify.
He suppressed his trembling and slammed his hand on the bedside table, making a loud noise.
The woman sleeping beside him jolted awake at the sound.
“What’s wrong, President Qi?”
“My video has been leaked online. I need to handle this right now. I can’t accompany you today.”
“Oh! President Qi, then let’s deal with this matter first. Do you need me to do anything?”
“It’s okay. You go back to sleep. I’ll leave in a moment.”
As he spoke, Qi Weixiong began to put on the clothes beside the bed.
After quickly getting dressed, Qi Weixiong went to the bathroom and called the person in charge of the PR department.
Once the PR arrangements were made, he dialed the number of Shen Xiting, the elder brother of the Shen family.
If this couldn’t resolve the issue, he was done for.
As Qi Weixiong became aware of this, he shivered involuntarily.
This was the first time he had encountered such a tricky situation since he became wealthy.
He had become too arrogant and complacent after his rise to power, thinking that with the status of marrying into the Shen family, others wouldn’t dare to touch him.
But instead of making others wary of them, it seemed that someone was observing his weaknesses in secret, then seizing upon them relentlessly until they tore off a piece of flesh.
After a while, the call was answered, and a deep, magnetic voice came through.
“Hello?”
“Mr. Shen, it’s me, Qi Weixiong, Yue Yue’s father.”
“President Qi, what can I do for you?”
“Well… there’s something I’d like to ask Mr. Shen for help with…”
“President Qi, there’s no need for formalities between our families.”
“In that case, thank you, nephew. Let’s get together for a meal sometime~”
With Shen Xiting’s response, Qi Weixiong breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the marriage alliance still had some use.
Qi Weixiong briefly explained the online situation to Shen Xiting, who readily agreed.
“President Qi, rest assured, I’ll have someone take care of this matter. After all, the wedding between Kuozhi and our son is coming up soon.”
“Ah, good, good, good. Thank you, nephew. The wedding between Kuozhi and our Yue Yue will surely be splendid and harmonious~”
Qi Weixiong bent slightly and hurriedly spoke into the phone.
After hanging up, Qi Weixiong straightened his posture.
With Shen Xiting’s affirmative response, he no longer had to worry.
Shen Xiting acted swiftly. The online video disappeared quickly, and even the spontaneous comments from internet users were cleaned up.
There was no longer any mention of “Qi Weixiong” on the hot search list.
This speed of action was much faster than Qi Weixiong could have managed on his own.
Now that the online video and comments were gone, it all depended on what they said next.
Qi Weixiong called the person in charge of the PR department again, instructing them to revise the PR documents.
The PR documents now needed to deny the black material that had emerged today and shift the blame onto the person who had leaked the information.
However, this required someone’s cooperation.
Qi Weixiong dialed Guo Xia’s number.
What he didn’t expect was that Guo Xia actually rejected his call.
“Damn it!”
Qi Weixiong gritted his teeth. What was this woman up to?
After several consecutive attempts, he finally got through, but before he could speak, he heard Guo Xia’s sarcastic voice.
“Oh, President Qi, the busy man finally has time to call me back.”
Qi Weixiong’s mouth twitched slightly. It was true that Guo Xia had called him this morning when he was deeply engaged with his lover, so he was indeed at fault.
“Xia Xia, what are you talking about? I was entertaining a senior executive this morning and didn’t check my phone.”
“Oh, okay then. You entertain your executive properly. I won’t disturb you. After all, I don’t have anything important to bother President Qi with.”
“Alright, let’s talk nicely. You know about the online situation, right? I need your cooperation to shoot a clarification video.”
“Where did I not talk nicely? I received a call from the company this morning and contacted you immediately. And what did you do? You sent me a video online?”
“Okay, okay, okay, that’s my fault. I’ll make it up to you, Xia Xia. I promise not to do it again next time. Can we focus on the bigger picture now?”
Qi Weixiong tried to soften his tone as much as possible as he coaxed her.
