A cold voice came from the other end of the phone; it was Shen Xingbai.

He remained calm, feeling that receiving the call was perfectly reasonable. If the other party couldn't find out, he would doubt the Ji family's abilities.

His tone, however, carried a chill.

"If you don't know how to teach your son, then I'll teach him properly for you."

Father Ji threatened in a cold voice: "Boy, you'd better think carefully about whether your company can withstand the Ji family's all-round suppression."

Shen Xingbai spoke calmly:

"At worst, I can just give up here and move somewhere else. No matter how powerful the Ji family is, can they really control every industry in the entire country?"

Father Ji was speechless, "Then what exactly do you want? Yunheng has already paid a heavy price, it's been terrible enough."

"Not enough," Shen Xingbai said indifferently. "What we have now is just the tip of the iceberg."

Father Ji's expression changed, and he said angrily,

"So you're not planning to care whether your girlfriend lives or dies! With a flick of the Ji family's finger, Su Ningning will never be able to make a comeback in the e-sports world."

The pressure around Shen Xingbai instantly reached its peak, and his voice was icy cold:

"Like father, like son. All his ruthless thoughts must have come from you."

Father Ji roared, "I'm not going to waste my breath on you! Are you going to stop or not?!"

Shen Xingbai: "It can stop. But the Ji family cannot interfere in any of Su Ningning's future e-sports competitions."

Whether she chooses to leave Tianchen in the future is entirely her own choice, and she will not need to pay any penalty for breach of contract.

Ji's father immediately agreed: "Okay."

Shen Xingbai said calmly, "I hope you keep your word and don't end up like your son Ji Yunheng, who is full of trashy character."

Mr. Ji was trembling with anger and was about to unleash a torrent of curses when Shen Xingbai abruptly hung up the phone.

In fact, Ji Chongyan also secretly intervened in this incident.

The contact information for all the retired e-sports players whose careers were ruined by Ji Yunheng was revealed to Shen Xingbai by Ji Chongyan.

He was stunned when he received Shen Xingbai's call, completely unaware of how the other party had obtained his number.

Upon hearing the name Shen Xingbai, he instantly realized that this was the person Lin Jiajia had liked before.

Although Lin Jiajia later told him that she only thought the other person was good-looking and didn't really like him.

However, Ji Chongyan couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

He asked in a flat, indifferent tone, "What is it?"

After hearing Shen Xingbai's purpose, he smiled instead and sent over all the contact information of the victimized players without saying a word.

He was also very curious about what abilities Shen Xingbai possessed that made these people dare to stand up and publicly accuse Ji Yunheng.

At this moment, he saw the overwhelming and one-sided online comments insulting Ji Yunheng, coupled with the continuous decline and volatility of Ji's stock price.

This was within his expectations.

He was not unaware that the exposure of this matter would affect the Ji Group's stock price, but he had long since reached his limit of tolerance for Ji Yunheng's reckless behavior.

Unconditional parental indulgence will only make him more arrogant and unruly, and he will drag the entire family down in the future.

It would be better to let the conflict erupt sooner rather than later, so that Ji Yunheng can completely sever ties with the Ji family.

At this time, he learned that Ji's father had gone to negotiate with Shen Xingbai, so Ji Chongyan took the initiative to call him.

"How did things go? Did you give in?"

Shen Xingbai chuckled coldly:

"What else can we do? After all, the Ji Group isn't something you can control all by yourself."

Ji Chongyan was momentarily speechless, then chuckled helplessly:

"You little rascal."

He then returned to his main point: "Are you just going to let it go like this? Just watch Ji Yunheng slowly clear his name and absolve himself of all responsibility?"

Shen Xingbai's lips curled into a cold smile: "Forget it? He'll only be allowed to clear his name if he gets the chance."

Ji Chongyan immediately became interested and pressed, "What do you mean? You have another trick up your sleeve?"

"Just watch."

Shen Xingbai left a sentence and hung up the phone without saying another word.

Hearing the busy tone from his phone, Ji Chongyan was first taken aback, then both angry and amused, and shook his head helplessly.

In the past, only Lin Jiajia dared to hang up on him, the president of the Ji Group, so casually. Now, Shen Xingbai has also joined the list.

Far from being angry, she admired Shen Xingbai even more. This man was methodical and principled in his actions, decisive in killing and meticulous in his thinking.

Everywhere you look, there's a comfortable and refreshing atmosphere; the more you spend time with someone, the more you feel comfortable with them.

In just a few days, online public opinion has once again undergone a stunning reversal.

The equipment manager who had previously confessed publicly admitted that the anonymous transfer of ten million yuan did not come from Ji Yunheng.

It was transferred to him by someone from the AG club.

AG Club, the team that had just defeated Tianchen Esports, already considered Su Ningning its biggest rival on the road to the championship, and out of jealousy, it orchestrated all of this.

Those involved in the AG Club incident quickly came forward to confess and explained the entire course of their crimes.

All the evidence instantly pointed to AG Club, and Ji Yunheng was completely exonerated, causing a significant improvement in public opinion online.

However, some netizens still refused to give up:

[The equipment issue was caused by someone else, but the incident of breaking a professional player's hand back then can't be faked, right? That's a solid criminal record!]

This question became the most troublesome problem for Ji's father.

He used all his connections and resources to frantically search for the former e-sports player who worked as a food deliveryman, hoping to force him to change his story.

No matter how thoroughly they searched, they couldn't find a trace of him; it was as if he had vanished into thin air.

He was relieved when the police couldn't find him, but now it's like a boomerang back at him.

Meanwhile, the former e-sports player is peacefully staying in his remote hometown village.

Before leaving, Shen Xingbai gave him a full five million, which was all of Shen Xingbai's working capital.

He even borrowed some money from He Siqi.

After paying the money, Shen Xingbai threw himself into the business of making money, since he didn't have as much money as his girlfriend at the moment.

He can't afford to support a girlfriend anymore...

The former esports player left without leaving any trace of his whereabouts.

He didn't take a plane or a high-speed train; he traveled the entire way home by private car and carpooling.

They completely evaded all surveillance and tracking, making it impossible for the Ji family to investigate.

Looking at the money in his hand, his eyes reddened, and he was filled with emotion.

Back then, he risked his life to leave that poor mountain village, relying on his e-sports skills to work hard and make a living.

All he wanted was to get ahead, make money, and lead his family and the entire village out of the mountains.

So that the villagers don't have to be trapped in the mountains their whole lives, toiling in the fields.

But Ji Yunheng completely crushed his dreams and all his hopes of moving forward.

For so many years, he could only barely survive by delivering food and collecting recyclables, and the hatred in his heart never dissipated.

So he's willing to come forward and testify, even if there's a possibility of retaliation, but so what! His life is already ruined.

It was ruined by Ji Yunheng.

Now that he has received the five million, he can finally fulfill his long-held wish: to use the money to build roads and start businesses.

Leading the entire village to take its first step into the outside world, it makes my life worthwhile.
