CHAPTER 288: CHAPTER 289: HIRING A HITMAN TO KILL

Tang Gu found it hard to believe as she looked at her, and she was about to slam the door shut right away.

Shi Mei blocked the door, the outline of her lips curving even more broadly, she said in a calm voice, "You need redemption."

You need redemption.

That single phrase set off huge waves in Tang Gu’s heart!

Tang Gu immediately relaxed the grip on the door, her face a mix of shock and loathing, she clenched her teeth and hissed, "How dare you show your face here, haven’t you done enough harm to me already!"

"Enough? Of course not," Shi Mei said, moving closer quietly, speaking in a hushed tone, "You still owe me a life, Guo Feifei."

Tang Gu’s face turned utterly white with shock, she exclaimed in horror, "How can you be so venomous, you’re not even dead! Are you happy after harming me like this!"

"Happy?" Shi Mei smiled with her eyes curving, "Overjoyed, to be honest. Every time I think about how I nearly died on that mountain, I shake all over in fright, and I think, thank goodness I’m still alive, otherwise... as a ghost, I would strangle you to death!"

Tang Gu shrunk back, her voice trembling, "What do you want!"

Shi Mei pushed the door forcefully, her voice relaxed, uncaring, "Haven’t I said? I’m here to redeem you."

Tang Gu couldn’t comprehend what she meant.

Shi Mei walked in on her own, raising an eyebrow in praise, "The place is not bad, it seems Bai Yuejie hasn’t treated you too unfairly, but how come such a big mess, and she couldn’t cover for you?"

Tang Gu’s complexion changed repeatedly.

Shi Mei turned her head, her delight at the misfortune evident without any attempt to hide it, "I wonder if it’s that she couldn’t cover, or she didn’t want to cover?"

Of course, she couldn’t cover.

When that reporter sent out the documents, they were intercepted by T Jing; Baiyue Media never received those documents.

She acted as a staff member of Baiyue Media and dismissed the matter thoroughly; how could Bai Yuejie, completely unaware, possibly cover for it?

Shi Mei continued, "Can you even get through to her phone now?"

Tang Gu looked utterly hopeless, her face ashen.

"People like her, I’ve seen plenty," Shi Mei shook her head lightly with a sigh, "They give you a dream, make you swell with pride and lift you to the skies, only to personally shatter that dream, making you fall from heaven to hell. Do you know why?"

Tang Gu felt a chill through her body, but her reason still allowed her to come to her senses for a moment, she said, "Impossible, what benefit does it have for her, it must be you, you must have called Zhang Lefeng!"

"Indeed, I was the one who summoned him, what do you expect after offending me," Shi Mei confessed unabashedly, "but have you ever thought about how Zhang Lefeng got his hands on that plastic surgery information?"

That one sentence once again froze Tang Gu in her tracks.

"You’re so careful in your dealings, without an insider’s cooperation, where would I get such confidential evidence?" Shi Mei looked down, playing with her nails as if casually, "In order to draw me back to the program, someone sent this lovely gift right to my door," as she spoke, her lips curled into an arrogant curve, "But then again, any sane person understands that between someone with real talent like me and a mere facade like you, how to choose."

Tang Gu still wore an expression of disbelief, shaking her head numbly, "No, Miss Bai isn’t like that, she couldn’t possibly use such a method to decide the winner and loser between us..."

"What winner and loser, aren’t you thinking too much," Shi Mei looked down on her with disdain, "From the very beginning, the outcome was clear. Keeping me in the program would obviously be more valuable than keeping you, and you’ve got a lot of nerve, daring to hire a hitman to kill me, tired of living, are you!"

"Nonsense!" Tang Gu sprang up, "The hitman has nothing to do with me!"

"Who do you think you’re fooling, it has nothing to do with you? One moment you were scheming to lure me into the forest, and the next moment the hitman appeared, clearly you hired someone to commit murder!"
