Jiang Li nodded in satisfaction. She then unlocked her phone and had Liu Qian handle Zheng Qi’s contract.

After all, she had an assistant. As the boss—and a pregnant one at that—she naturally didn’t have to do everything herself.

There was no need for her to personally handle matters that could be resolved by others.

They say there’s nothing a cup of boba can’t solve. If there is, then have two more.

After downing more than half her boba, Zheng Qi finally felt like she was coming back to life.

She took a deep breath, looking up at the azure sky. "Sister Li, didn’t you want to know what happened to me these past two days?"

Jiang Li immediately put down her boba and took Zheng Qi’s hand. "If you don’t want to talk about it, you don’t have to."

The reason she wanted to know wasn’t out of curiosity, but because she wanted to help Zheng Qi get revenge.

Although she could have Xue Fan investigate secretly, that would be a bit disrespectful.

Zheng Qi knew Jiang Li was trying to respect her. A faint smile touched her lips as her eyes met Jiang Li’s. "Keeping some things bottled up inside can crush a person."

Jiang Li patted Zheng Qi’s shoulder. "Then I’ll be a very attentive audience."

Zheng Qi leaned languidly against the railing, her hands wrapped around her boba cup. "Actually, before Lu Zhi’an, I had a top fan. At first, he just kept showering me with money. Then, he started checking in on me every day."

"New streamers have to privately contact their biggest supporters to survive. So after he’d been spending money on me for over half a month, I took the initiative to add him as a contact."

"At first, we just talked about normal things. But gradually, the conversations became more risqué, and he even wanted to ask me out to dinner..."

Jiang Li could finally understand why Zheng Qi had rejected Lu Zhi’an’s advances and hadn’t even given him her WeChat.

You really couldn’t blame Zheng Qi for this. If anyone was to blame, it was that top fan.

He had put so much effort into pursuing Zheng Qi, but after he got what he wanted, he vanished without a trace and even hired people to slander her online.

Now that he saw Zheng Qi had become a major streamer, he wanted to get back the money he’d spent on her, even threatening her with intimate photos.

Three days ago, the man asked Zheng Qi to meet him.

But when she met him and paid him back, the man knocked her unconscious.

When she woke up, she was already in a van.

Not only was she tied up tightly, but her mouth was also taped shut.

She was force-fed her meals and had water poured down her throat. She had no freedom at all.

And once they reached the border, that’s when life truly became hell.

Wiping away her tears, Jiang Li pulled Zheng Qi into her arms and said with a pained heart, "That’s enough, Qiqi. Don’t say any more."

’She truly couldn’t imagine what kind of life Zheng Qi would have ended up living if Lu Zhi’an hadn’t contacted her yesterday. She could only be thankful that the drive from the Capital City to the border took more than a day. Otherwise, Zheng Qi might not have been able to come back at all.’

Hearing the ache in Jiang Li’s voice, Zheng Qi was the one to reach out and pat her back, comforting her. "It’s nothing, really. I just got beaten a few times."

"If they had been even a little later, you..." Jiang Li exhaled sharply. "Those bastards. I’ll make them pay!"

After saying this, she released Zheng Qi, immediately grabbed her phone from the stone table, and unlocked it to call Xue Fan. "Can you get your friends to wipe out that entire organization?"

Although Jiang Li’s words might have sounded nonsensical, they had just spoken yesterday, so he quickly put two and two together.

He didn’t know what had happened, but if Jiang Li wanted an organization wiped out, his job was to execute the order.

"Yes, no problem."

He paused, then added with an awkward chuckle, "It’ll just... probably cost ten million."

If he were handling it himself, it naturally wouldn’t cost anything.

But this was asking others for help, and as mercenaries, they only worked for money.

Jiang Li didn’t reply. She just transferred the money.

Only after the transfer was complete did she say, "I’ve sent it."

"Alright, no problem."

But when he saw the amount Jiang Li had transferred, he couldn’t help but ask, confused, "Boss, did you send too much money?"

Jiang Li ground her back teeth. "It’s not too much. The extra is for them to beat those guys to a pulp for me. And it’d be best if they recorded a few videos."

’Look what they did to Zheng Qi. Just wiping them out isn’t enough; they have to pay the price. Since they love beating people so much, they should get a good taste of it themselves.’

"Okay, I’ll pass on the message."

After Jiang Li hung up, Zheng Qi asked curiously, "Sister Li, who was that? Are they reliable?"

Jiang Li didn’t hide anything, answering truthfully, "Mercenaries I know from abroad. Very reliable."
