I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2801 - 1739: Time Law

We’ve been fooled, we’ve been fooled.

Which stratagem in the Thirty-Six Stratagems is the most insidious, vicious, and shameless?

Undoubtedly, it’s the beauty trap.

After all, even Tang Sanzang almost couldn’t resist it.

In this world, is there anyone who dares to claim they’ve more self-control than Tang Seng?

K.E East Sea Research and Development Department.

Luo Li’er was diligently mixing fragrances in the laboratory when she suddenly received news that almost made the reagent bottle in her hand fall to the ground.

Pei Yunxi was passionately kissing someone at the airport.

Spring river water warmth is known by the ducks first.

No one knows about her relationship with Pei Yunxi.

But Pei Yunxi is K.E’s global ambassador!

The romances of celebrities are never just personal matters; they involve vast commercial interests. For example, endorsements bind the image of the celebrity with the brand, and their relationship can make or break both parties.

Therefore.

If Pei Yunxi, as the global ambassador, is indeed in a romance, it would undoubtedly impact K.E. negatively, inevitably!

Upon hearing the news, Luo Li’er immediately rushed out of the laboratory, and by that time, the entire floor was filled with rumors.

"What exactly is going on?"

Luo Li’er promptly stopped two chatting employees and asked sternly. You should know, although this girl looks kawaii, her demeanor isn’t exactly amiable, quite like her sister. Otherwise, why didn’t Mr. Luo choose to pursue relentlessly back then?

"We don’t know either; we just saw it online."

The two employees were not surprised by her reaction, suspecting the company might have to hold an emergency meeting because of this.

"Is there evidence?"

Luo Li’er went straight to the point.

"No, haven’t seen anything."

"What about the news?"

Luo Li’er struggled to control the storm brewing in her heart.

"Can’t see it anymore, Assistant Luo."

"Can’t see? What do you mean?"

"It was at the top of the trending list not long ago, but it suddenly disappeared, and nothing relevant can be found now. If you don’t believe, let me search for you."

A female employee picked up her phone and opened Star Sky, which has the highest market share, and searched for the keyword Pei Yunxi kissing someone passionately. The results were all unrelated information, like clips of shows Pei Yunxi had performed in and her beautiful photos and videos.

"Assistant Luo, look."

The female employee clicked into a random piece of work and opened the comments section. All she saw were similar messages like "free, private," with timestamps not long ago—even some comments had just been posted.

"What do these comments mean?"

"They mean someone has the pictures from the scene. If you message them privately, they’ll send it to you, no charge."

"Message them privately," Luo Li’er commanded immediately.

The two employees exchanged glances but didn’t explain. They just followed her instructions, randomly sending a private message to one of the comments.

"Five bucks."

Seeing the reply, the female employee wasn’t surprised and only lifted her head to say, "Most of these are just trying to make some quick money off the hype. Once you pay, they vanish without a trace."

"Give them five bucks."

Luo Li’er insisted.

It’s just five bucks, so the female employee continued complying and sent a five-buck packet. Before she had time to type "Where’s the photo," she was notified that she’d been blocked by the other party.

"Get it reimbursed by the finance department."

Luo Li’er said and then left quickly. She returned to her office and hadn’t yet had a chance to call her sister when suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

She felt a bit impatient, but when she turned her head, she saw it was Xu Siyi.

"Senior sister."

Luo Li’er, who no longer wore double ponytails, composed herself, forced a smile, and greeted.

Xu Siyi closed the door, her expression unusual.

"Did you hear about Miss Pei’s matter?"

Others in the company might not know about Luo Li’er’s relationship with Pei Yunxi, but she knew.

"Mm..."

"Is it true?"

Xu Siyi probed cautiously.

"It’s false."

Luo Li’er replied simply and decisively, "It’s a rumor. There’s no related report online at all."

None.

And being erased.

Are two different things.

What was that saying again? No smoke without fire.

Out of nowhere, how possibly could such rumors arise suddenly? And nothing can be found, only maggots in the comments section trying to swindle money.

Information era.

What we learn from "freedom" is that there is really no freedom.

Everyone lives inside an invisible cocoon.

The more something is being covered, hidden, or destroyed, the more it represents the truth.

"Miss Pei...has she fallen in love?"

Curiosity is inherent in everyone.

Moreover, the reason she could come to work at K.E, escape the mire of emotions, was all thanks to the other party. This kind of caring is necessary.

"No."

Luo Li’er’s answer remained straightforward and firm, "Anyway, I don’t know."

"Have you called Miss Pei?"

Xu Siyi pressed on.

Finally, Luo Li’er cracked a faint bitter smile, "Wasn’t I just about to call?"

"Sorry."

Xu Siyi immediately acknowledged she was intruding and explained, "I was just shocked to suddenly hear this news; I meant no harm."

Luo Li’er nodded, "I understand."

"It must be a rumor."

Xu Siyi said, "Then I’ll leave you to it."

"Phew—"

After Xu Siyi left, Luo Li’er took a deep breath, her impressive bosom heaving in stark contrast to her petite stature.

She knew.

Xu Siyi was comforting her.

Is it possible it’s just a publicity stunt?

Although there were no photos or videos seen, related scenes automatically formed in her mind, except the man’s face remained blurry.

Luo Li’er clenched her fist.

Who?

Who on earth is it?

Bastard!

Luo Li’er picked up her phone again, intending to call her sister, but to her surprise, the phone rang first.

Senior Jiang.

Luo Li’er pressed the answer button, adjusted her breathing, and feigned naturalness, "Senior."

"When do you get off work?"

"Five o’clock. Why?"

"I’ll take you out for dinner."

Luo Li’er hesitated. Did she misunderstand?

Does that Chen Jiang really exist?

Her cousin had never fabricated such news for publicity, and what need would her cousin have for such publicity?

If it wasn’t a rumor or a publicity stunt, then the only possibility she could think of was that Chen Jiang, who was known by name but unseen.

"...Senior, did you hear about the news that just came out?"

She couldn’t hold back.

"Let’s talk when we meet."

Boss Jiang was very calm; it was no surprise, he was incredibly efficient. Luo Li’er thought he was still in East Sea; how could she know he’d already slipped to Hui City and even returned victorious?

"Why don’t I come pick you up?"

When dealing with beautiful women, one must maintain utmost vigilance, especially when she’s an unparalleled Heavenly Immortal.

It’s known that many Heavenly Immortals have ascended to enlightenment from being demons.

Even though the other party suddenly became so gentle and docile, Boss Jiang wasn’t unaware of the deception, though he couldn’t be bothered to expose it.

Just childish tricks.

Not taking advantage would be foolish, no?

"No need, send me the address, and I’ll head over myself."

"Ok."

With that, Boss Jiang suddenly added, "Turn off your phone. Before dining, keep a delightful mood."

The other party might have laid a beauty trap, but as a man, why quibble over everything with a lady when the responsibility must be shouldered?

Luo Li’er smiled knowingly; she hadn’t thought of turning off her phone, since blocking out some bothersome news wouldn’t prevent her parents from contacting her, right?

At this point.

The tea was almost finished.

"Alright~"

Luo Li’er didnt suspect any deception, "Senior, send me the address, and I’ll turn it off right away."

"Then let’s meet at Wuqi Building. It’s close to you."

"Ok."

In the VIP passage, Boss Jiang returning to East Sea casually put down the phone, without pride, without arrogance, on his face, which no one could pinpoint in a photo online, only a serene look of everything under control lingered.

Previously quite amateur.

But now.

He’s increasingly resembling a powerful being mastering the Time Law.
