369 I Am Drakon

Following Iris' statement to the media, the Black Stars all declared their support for Jiang Ying Yue and condemned Wu Qianxi. With the trolling power of the infamous Slippers Army on the internet, Wu Qianxi's name became synonymous with the word "homewrecker".

Whenever iEatSlippers was too busy to go online, Little Phoenix led the Slippers Army in his stead to wave their virtual mighty slippers and whack anyone who dared bash their Boss Iris and her friends like Jiang Ying Yue.

Needless to say, Wu Qianxi finally realized that her scheme of placing the blame on both Jiang Ying Yue and Long Hui backfired on her.

She also still foolishly thought that Iris Long was the same good-for-nothing sister of her ex-boyfriend. But the fact of the matter was that Iris Long was now one of the rising stars of the country's music industry. Iris Long had a massively growing horde of loyal fans who would follow her everywhere, even to heaven or to hell.

By attacking someone important to Iris Long, Wu Qianxi placed a giant target on her forehead to be attacked by the Black Stars, especially its most notorious division, the Slippers Army.

Inside her apartment, Wu Qianxi was screaming her frustration out. The place was wrecked. She was sobbing on the floor with the notice of defamation lawsuit papers scattered all around her. Her friend also received a similar notice. They had a shouting match on the phone earlier.

"You bitch! My relatives in China just informed me of what really happened during the party. You lied to me and used me! When we go to court, I'll tell the judge and everyone else that I only wrote what you fucking told me! I can't believe I'm being sued because of you! Fuck you, Qianxi!"

Her friend was so furious that the call ended before Wu Qianxi had a chance to speak and defend herself. In the end, it was safe to say that their friendship was now over.

"Lawyer… I need to get a lawyer…"

Wu Qianxi grabbed her phone to search for some good lawyers. However, her search was interrupted by an e-mail flood. It rendered her phone unusable for a few minutes because of the seemingly endless notifications.

After some time, it finally ended. She checked her inbox. There were at least 20,000 e-mails. It was from an address that she didn't recognize. Curious, she opened one of them.

"Don't fight the lawsuit. Pay the compensatory and punitive damages. You won't go to jail, but you must suffer the damage to you reputation and career. If you try to escape this 'light' punishment and continue wrecking a family, I'll make sure that you'll suffer something that is many times worse than this. Something that won't allow you to recover. Think carefully. —Drakon"

Wu Qianxi scowled. Who the hell was this Drakon? He dared to threaten her? What could he do to her?

"Go ahead and flood my inbox. I don't fucking care," she sneered.

She deleted the e-mail but her phone suddenly froze. Then it started opening random apps without her control. After a few seconds, it began downloading a huge amount of files.

"Dammit! I'm getting hacked?!"

She tried swiping on the screen many times to stop the download progress but to no avail. She even tried turning the phone off but she couldn't. The phone was completely out of her control now.

Finally, the download was complete. But before she could check the state of her phone, the downloaded files opened on their own.

Photos and videos of her affairs with her married clients popped up. Many of them were famous celebrities. For her, these affairs weren't really anything serious. She just did them for the thrill and experience of sleeping with these famous men.

The photos and videos looked like they were mostly taken from CCTVs, mostly from hotels, airports, restaurants and shopping boutiques. They showed her making out and acting intimate with the men.

She was alarmed at first, but she forced herself to calm down. Fortunately, there weren't any nude photos or sex videos. Just making out wouldn't be too damaging. She was very careful in not filming anything inside the bedroom.

That was what she thought.

A video suddenly started playing. It showed a scene inside a hotel room. Two naked bodies were intertwined on the bed. The loud, wet slapping sounds of flesh against flesh mixed with moans and groans.

Wu Qianxi was now completely horrified, as she saw herself being pounded from above by a European earl. The video looked like it was secretly taken.

"That motherfucking earl installed a hidden camera?! NOOOOO!!!"

She was about to smash the phone against the wall when the screen blacked out again. A slideshow presentation began playing. Basically, the slideshow showed secret information about the European earl. It turned out that the earl was connected to a small but vicious mafia group.

At the same time, the slideshow was a threat. If Wu Qianxi didn't learn her lesson, the sex video would be released to the whole world. Of course the earl wouldn't be happy. He might ask his Mafiosi friends to "take care" of her as revenge.

The slideshow ended with a simple sentence.

"Lawsuit or this?"

Wu Qianxi closed her eyes. The phone slipped from her hand, bouncing and skidding on the floor. She was unwilling to give in to the threat, but there was no other choice. She valued her reputation and image too much.

She might not be able to show her face in Asia anymore, but the world was large. She could start over again in other places. But if she remained stubborn and ignored the threat, there would no longer be any safe place in the world for her.

Hatred roiled within her at being forced to bow down to a threat. Angry tears rolled down her face.

"Fine. You win," she spat through gritted teeth.

A robotic voice suddenly sounded from her phone. It frightened her so much that she fell down on her butt. She shrieked but still heard everything it said.

"I'll be watching you. Make a wrong move and I'll send all of these files to the whole world. Be assured that the earl will be the first one to see them."

"Who are you?!"

"I am Drakon."

With that, the robotic voice disappeared. Wu Qianxi cautiously picked up the phone from the floor. It was now working properly. All the e-mails and files were deleted, as if they weren't there in the first place.

She immediately searched for "hacker Drakon" and was shocked at the results.

This time, she experienced what true fear felt like. Cold sweat quickly soaked her. For someone who could topple even entire governments, it would be extremely easy for this Drakon to destroy her with just one click.

"Oh fuck," was all she could say.

It appeared that she really messed with the wrong people this time.
