CHAPTER 485: CHAPTER 485: NOT BUYING!

Lin Fan said, "What’s up?"

Wang Xiangqian replied, "Just today, there’s suddenly a buzz online saying that Xiaoyue is about to have some shocking dirt exposed. The curiosity of netizens has been piqued, and everyone is talking about it; it seems like someone is going after Xiaoyue again."

Lin Fan let out a sound, "I got it. No need to worry; I’ll visit the company tomorrow."

Wang Xiangqian was a bit surprised, wondering why Brother Fan seemed so calm?

Lin Fan hung up the phone and sneered, "Feng Wanshan is starting, huh."

He already knew what was going on—Feng Wanshan had sent Anna to get close to Ning Xiaoyue to gather dirt on her, and Anna handed over Xiaoyue’s dirt to Feng Wanshan.

Feng Wanshan planned to use this dirt to his advantage.

If Feng Wanshan wanted to target Ning Xiaoyue, he wouldn’t have to go to such lengths, teasing everyone with previews. He could just release the dirt directly.

Feng Wanshan’s actions were clearly aimed at Lin Fan. Lin Fan didn’t need to do anything; he just had to wait for Feng Wanshan to reach out.

The next day.

Lin Fan arrived at Wenyue Company.

As soon as he entered, he found the place noisy. Apparently, Feng Tianming arrived even earlier than he did.

Wang Xiangqian was unhappy, "Feng Tianming, why are you running to someone else’s company so early? Is your company going bankrupt?"

Feng Tianming said, "Of course, I’m here for good news. If you want to know what it is, go get Lin Fan here. I want to announce it in front of him!"

Wang Xiangqian said, "What on earth are you up to?"

Feng Tianming retorted, "You must be clueless. Haven’t you heard the rumors online about Ning Xiaoyue? As a company, how can you not know?"

Upon hearing the words, the company crowd was shocked.

Wang Xiangqian’s face changed, and he angrily said, "Feng Tianming, is it you again? You despicable person, you’ve already lost the bet to Brother Fan, so why are you slandering Xiaoyue?"

Feng Tianming sneered, "Slandering her? You’re overthinking. If she wasn’t dirty herself, who could slander her?"

Wang Xiangqian said angrily, "What do you mean by this?"

Feng Tianming dismissively replied, "I’ve said that I want to speak in front of Lin Fan. If you’re smart, you’d contact Lin Fan right away. You’re such a fool."

"No need to contact. I’m here."

At that moment, Lin Fan’s voice came through, followed by his entrance.

"Feng Tianming, if you have something to say, go ahead," Lin Fan said calmly.

Feng Tianming said, "Alright, let’s get straight to the point. Take a look at this first!"

Feng Tianming took out a stack of photos and tossed them on the table.

Everyone looked, and the photos showed Ning Xiaoyue holding hands with a guy!

"How could this happen? What’s going on?"

"Is this real?"

"Where did Feng Tianming get these photos?"

Everyone was bewildered.

Feng Tianming was satisfied with their reactions and proudly said, "Don’t worry about how I got the photos. Just know that they’re in my hands, and you know the consequences if these photos are released online."

Of course, everyone understood that releasing these photos would equate to announcing Ning Xiaoyue’s downfall. She just started her career, and this revelation would be devastating.

No wonder everyone reacted so strongly.

Wang Xiangqian trembled all over, sweating and turning pale. Could something like this really happen?

His company was on the verge of bankruptcy, saved by Lin Fan’s investment. Then Ning Xiaoyue debuted and became the company’s only profitable artist. Wang was counting on Xiaoyue to rise.

If Xiaoyue’s love life were exposed now, it would be catastrophic for both her and the company.

Ning Xiaoyue’s painstakingly earned future would vanish like a fleeting dream.

Only Lin Fan remained unperturbed and said, "You haven’t exposed these photos but came here instead, so it seems you don’t intend to expose them. Go ahead, what do you want?"

Feng Tianming said, "Smart as always. Ruining Xiaoyue would be easy, but that wouldn’t be fun. Let’s play something interesting. I could avoid exposure if you purchase these photos!"

What?

Everyone was stunned.

Feng Tianming asked them to buy the photos?

Wang Xiangqian angrily said, "Feng Tianming, this is blackmail!"

Feng Tianming chuckled, "I’m blackmailing, so what? If you don’t like it, feel free to call the police, but with that, Xiaoyue will surely be exposed. Consider what’s more worthwhile."

"Not buying."

Lin Fan calmly replied.

What?

Everyone was taken aback; Lin Fan decisively chose not to buy. Was this decision too rash?

This concerns Ning Xiaoyue’s future!

Wang Xiangqian said, "Brother Fan, shouldn’t we discuss this further?"

Ning Xiaoyue was the company’s only cash cow, and Wang counted on her earnings. As her boss, he privately hoped she wouldn’t face trouble.

Feng Tianming was also surprised. "Lin Fan, what did you say, not buying? Aren’t you afraid I’ll expose them?"

Lin Fan nonchalantly replied, "Expose them if you wish."

Feng Tianming was frustrated, "Aren’t you concerned about Xiaoyue’s future? Surely, you understand what these photos mean. By offering them, I’m giving you a chance to save her future!"

Lin Fan seemed indifferent.

Feng Tianming grew more desperate, "Two billion! A fixed price of two billion. Lin Fan, you have plenty of money, and you’re not willing to spend two billion to preserve Xiaoyue’s future?"

Everyone looked at Lin Fan, unsure of his intentions.

Wang Xiangqian couldn’t stand it and said, "Feng Tianming, you’re asking for too much! How about lowering the price?"

Feng Tianming let out a sound, "Alright, one billion five hundred million, reducing by five hundred million. Can’t go lower. Lin Fan, just buy them!"

He was nearly begging Lin Fan to buy them; his plan was to extort Lin Fan for a hefty sum. According to his plan, Lin Fan would pay anything to protect Xiaoyue, but Lin was unresponsive. His plan for Lin Fan to pay double backfired, and it was awkward.

It was indeed awkward.

Feng Tianming continued to lower the price, but Lin Fan ignored him. Eventually, the price fell to fifty million, yet Lin Fan showed no intention of buying.

"Lin Fan, are you insane? You’re not forcing me, but if you don’t buy, I’ll post these photos online!" Feng Tianming shouted.

"Do you worry I’ll expose them after you buy them? I swear I won’t. I only want money!"

He initially aimed to see Lin Fan at a loss, but Lin remained calm, which made Feng even angrier.

He almost knelt to beg Lin Fan to buy.

Finally, Lin Fan chuckled and said, "Stop shouting. I also have these photos, higher resolution than yours. Why should I buy from you?"

What?

Everyone was puzzled.

Feng Tianming replied in disbelief, "What do you mean, you also have them?"

Lin Fan said, "Not only do I have them, but everyone online can see them now; I’ve had Xiaoyue upload them herself."

What?

Everyone was stunned. Did Ning Xiaoyue expose her own intimate photos with a guy?
