Chapter 1332: Chapter 669: Putting On an Act (Part 2)

"When everything is under my control, none of you will escape." Wang Zhangyu finished speaking and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

For some reason, images of himself holding great power kept appearing in his mind.

Although he had already grasped quite a bit, his ambition was far from satisfied; this achievement was simply not enough for him.

Wang Zhangyu knew all too well that Liu’s and Huo’s had always looked down on him, and only when he slowly devoured these two companies would they realize his strength.

Meanwhile, Liu Wei received the news from Wang Zhangyu, naturally feeling more confident.

Now with backing, he felt more assured about his actions. He understood well that the Huo Group was on a gradual decline, and with his current strength, acquiring them was as easy as flipping his hand, without any hesitation.

Since Wang Zhangyu also had such intentions, things would be much easier moving forward. Liu Wei aggressively took over the Huo Group’s market, advancing unstoppably. Seeing this scene, Wang Zhangyu naturally felt much more relaxed, as devouring the company meant no more worries.

After acquiring the company, Liu Wei became even more reckless, acting without restraint in whatever he did. He felt particularly joyous, becoming more arrogant in his actions.

During a press conference, suddenly, the wizard’s evil technique inexplicably vanished, and Liu Wei instantly reverted to his original appearance, performing a ’disappearing act’ in front of the reporters.

Seeing this scene, the reporters were shocked, hardly able to believe it; how could a perfectly fine person suddenly turn into the wizard’s appearance? Was this all fake?

"Look at the stage, isn’t that Liu Wei? How did he become a different person? Am I seeing things, or is this..." One of the reporters hurriedly pointed to the wizard on stage. Initially, the other reporters didn’t pay attention, but upon hearing this, they all looked over in unison and surprisingly found he had indeed turned into someone else.

"What’s going on? We only see this type of program on TV, but unexpectedly such an incident occurred in reality. How did a perfectly fine person become like this? What’s more, I remember the person on stage was Liu Wei."

"Yeah, yeah, what’s really happening? Is this all fake? It’s just too surreal; it’s unbelievable." Everyone was amazed, and some felt frightened. All the reporters present hurriedly took out their cameras to capture this moment.

Liu Wei, upon seeing this scene, was terrified and quickly fled. The wizard never expected such an accident to occur at a press conference, leaving him in disbelief, especially since so many reporters saw this and took photos. It wouldn’t be long before these photos spread online.

Regardless of the events, today’s affairs definitely defied explanation. Sure enough, before long, reporters posted the photos online. Other reporters noticed this hotspot attracted considerable attention and soon several others also spread these photos online.

Soon, these photos topped the trending list on Weibo. Naturally, netizens who saw the photos were astonished and left numerous comments below.

Rumors outside were swirling, leading to a sudden dive in Liu Group’s shares. The evil witch was at a loss; if only he hadn’t been careless this time, things wouldn’t have turned out this way. No matter how he pondered, he couldn’t comprehend how everything went as expected until the sudden complication at the press conference.

Meanwhile, Wang Zhangyu hadn’t realized the extent of the problem. Shortly after, his assistant rushed into the office and immediately laid the Weibo content he witnessed on the table.

"Boss Wang, take a look quickly, something happened on Weibo! Unexpectedly, Liu Wei turned into another person, as if by illusion technique. Moreover, it was during a press conference, many reporters saw this and took pictures. Now, it’s causing a huge uproar online."

Hearing this, Wang Zhangyu found it unbelievable. How could this be? The evil witch had assisted him for so long, never had problems before, so why now? He instinctively picked up his phone, and sure enough.

At the press conference, a ’disappearing act’ was performed. Wang Zhangyu was shocked, finding it hard to believe his eyes. Weibo was far more lively than usual, everyone knew about this incident, exploding in the comments while many cursed Liu Wei.

Wang Zhangyu clenched his fist and coldly spoke a few words: "Hurry up and call the evil witch here, I need to ask him what’s going on, what went wrong this time?"

The assistant nodded quickly upon hearing this, immediately stepping downstairs to call the evil witch.

"What’s going on? Boss Wang is furious, specially asked me to call you, you better get to the company quickly. If this can’t be cleared up, you won’t escape unscathed."

The evil witch, hearing this, naturally felt extremely anxious. But now there was no choice, so he had to grit his teeth and head to the company. As soon as he entered the office, he found the atmosphere exceptionally eerie.

Wang Zhangyu maintained a stern face throughout, without any hint of a smile. Upon seeing the evil witch enter, he subconsciously coughed twice, clearing his throat, then slowly raised his head. His eyes seemed to hide an iceberg, chillingly indifferent.

The evil witch dared not raise his head, the pressure was simply too intense.

"What’s going on here? Weren’t the preparations well underway before? Why did it suddenly slip at the critical moment? Now, how do you expect me to explain to the netizens online? This matter is beyond cleansing, even if I jumped into the Yellow River." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The wizard listened to these words, momentarily unsure how to explain, after all, such an incident was beyond his control.

"I really am innocent. I have no idea what’s going on, things were fine before. Even before the press conference, I checked and found no major issues. Why did it suddenly slip at the key moment? I suspect someone may be sabotaging us secretly."

The evil witch hurriedly explained himself. Wang Zhangyu, upon hearing this, suddenly seemed to understand something. Aside from Lin Beichen, no one else had the capability to break the disguise technique. It was likely him secretly meddling.

He understood his target, yet for now didn’t know what to do. This issue was rapidly fermenting online; if he didn’t respond timely, that wouldn’t do.

"Forget it, since that’s the case, you should leave first. I’ll handle this matter. For now, avoid showing yourself, lest someone discovers you."

The evil witch understood what this meant and hurriedly left. Wang Zhangyu sat alone in the office for quite a while, silently confirming that, if not mistaken, it was Lin Beichen causing trouble.

"Lin Beichen, I never expected you to ruin my plans again and again. Since this time you struck me ruthlessly, don’t blame me for being ruthless next. Don’t worry, even if it costs me my life, I’ll drag you out."

He clenched his teeth, squeezing these words out through his teeth. From Wang Zhangyu’s eyes, it was apparent how deep his hatred ran this time.

Then, Wang Zhangyu rang his assistant directly: "Now, I have a task for you. Arrange for someone to gather recent intelligence on Lin Beichen, to find anything is better than nothing."

The assistant understood the meaning immediately and assigned the task, even hiring some professionals for the investigation.

Time flew swiftly, and like this, two days passed.
