The love story of a wealthy brother and sister
Chapter 83 Encountering a Threat
When she was a junior, Li Shu participated in the department's school anniversary preparation activities. She and her team were responsible for interviewing outstanding graduates and compiling materials to be used in the school anniversary.
After breaking up with Jiang Kaicheng, she has been concentrating on studying. Although she often misses him, she can control herself.
Li Shu's mother said that ordinary men face huge temptations, let alone Jiang Kaicheng. The two of them are essentially equal. She only advised her to study hard, which is the only way to control her destiny.
One of the alumni was Ma Yiwei, who founded the magazine Southern Metropolis after graduation and was a little famous in Shanghai. That day, she and her classmate Zhao Xinxin were recording a blessing message for him when his cell phone suddenly rang. He quickly signaled them to pause, took two steps back, and answered the phone by the window.
"It's okay to be a little exaggerated... They just love to look at those things... Well, no one will check it, so don't worry. It's a problem with the load-bearing wall, um..." He spoke very quietly, glancing at the two girls from time to time.
Li Shu didn't hear anything, but he understood his lip language. He vaguely felt that he was talking about the recent collapse of the load-bearing wall of the office building. A large crack appeared in the building. It suddenly began to shake at noon. They quickly organized an evacuation, but many people were still injured, including two who were seriously injured and are currently in the intensive care unit.
It was finally found out that the load-bearing wall on the 9th floor was damaged.
The tenant on the 9th floor has been sent to jail and faces huge compensation. His life is over.
After reading the news, she always felt something was wrong. Until she met Ma Yiwei today, she became more determined in her thoughts.
Of course, she said nothing and finished recording the blessing video calmly. She only mentioned the incident when she and Zhao Xinxin were taking the subway back to school. Zhao Xinxin opened her phone to search for the news and found that many articles were published by Southern Metropolis:
《Help! They're destroying the load-bearing walls? Are you crazy?》
"The building shook like an earthquake. What's the reason?"
"Is this an American blockbuster? Why is the building shaking so suddenly?"
She and Zhao Xinxin looked at each other and said angrily, "Why use such a light-hearted and humorous title for such a tragedy?"
"Yes," Zhao Xinxin also frowned, "Do you have a heart?"
"The spearheads are all directed at the load-bearing wall," the two girls looked at each other, and Li Shu said again, "News comes out, and the truth should be investigated. I always feel that someone is hiding something."
"You want to check?" Zhao Xinxin was still a little unsure.
"We need to check," Li Shu's eyes were extremely firm.
"Then I'll go with you!"
The two girls hit it off immediately and went to the office building and the hospital, interviewed some eyewitnesses and patients' families, and actually got some very useful information: before the load-bearing wall incident, someone had taken a picture of a pillar in the underground garage that was severely worn and even collapsed, and sent it to the work group. The group has now been disbanded, but fortunately someone saved the picture - and showed it to Li Shu and Zhao Xinxin.
The person who saved the picture is called Deng Ke, who just graduated from college this year and is a programmer. He was working hard at his workstation on the day of the incident. Now he is lying in the hospital and is very happy to see reporters coming - Li Shu and Zhao Xinxin lied, they are actually just college students,
"Why don't you send this picture out?" Li Shu asked as he wrote down what he said.
"Someone posted it, but it was deleted very quickly. I was not convinced at first, but then that person..."
"What's up with him?"
"I couldn't get in touch with him," Deng Ke said with some difficulty, "but he came out again later and said he made a mistake..."
"Can't you see what's going on?" Li Shu looked into Deng Ke's eyes. In fact, everyone knew what was going on.
"I have no choice. I have to work. They paid for all the medical expenses and compensated me a lot of money..." Deng Ke sat up and looked at them with bright eyes. "You are reporters. You can do something, right?"
Li Shu and Zhao Xinxin looked at each other, and she added, "We'll find a way."
"How much money did you take?" Li Shu asked again.
"5." Deng Ke answered truthfully;
She nodded: "It's okay, it's within the normal range."
As she spoke, she packed her bag and took out her phone: "Add me on WeChat, I might need your help."
Deng Ke swept it without saying a word.

When Li Shu got home that night, he posted an article anonymously:
The truth you don't know: the whole story of the collapse of the building on Wukang Road
This building is not just a case of cutting corners. The load-bearing walls were clearly demolished later.
After writing the article, she felt that she might be in some danger. Thinking of Jiang Kaicheng's family background and connections, she sent the article to him and said:
I turned on the location of my phone. If you can't find me, call the police.
Jiang Kaicheng was shocked when he saw the article and called her immediately.
"Shushu, where are you now?" He hurried out of the bar so that he could hear her voice clearly.
"I'm at home," Li Shu curled up on the bed, "I'm fine at the moment."
"I'll have someone check that Southern newspaper," he said as he got into the car. "Do you want me to pick you up and take you to my place?"
“No, no,” she refused repeatedly, “I will go back to school tomorrow. School is safe.”
"It's not safe," Jiang Kaicheng started the car and drove to Lin Jingran's house. "Nowhere is safe. They can check the IP."
"I know," Li Shu said, getting more and more scared. "I'll go to sleep first. I just thought that maybe something will happen, or maybe nothing will happen..."
"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow and take you to school."
"No need," Li Shu refused subconsciously, "Just like this for now, I'm going to sleep."
She hung up the phone in a hurry, but she was still thinking that if this matter was to be investigated, it would probably have deep roots, and many people would not be able to withstand the investigation under these layers of relationships - but she had to do this, even if it was just to sound the alarm for them that buildings that people live in are cutting corners and treating human life as nothing.

Lin Jingran had already fallen asleep, but was woken up by Jiang Kaicheng in the middle of the night to read the article. He looked solemn. After reading it, he asked Jiang Kaicheng to give him his phone. He frowned and edited a WeChat message to Li Shu:
"If you are in danger, just type anything to me, letters or English are fine. If I see garbled text, I will call the police and then come find you."
After typing, he handed the phone to Jiang Kaicheng.
"Go pick her up tomorrow," he looked at him, thought for a moment and said, "Ask your dad to help check."
Jiang Kaicheng nodded.
"Tell me you're in trouble," Lin Jingran reminded him again, "Don't mention Li Shu. He won't care if you mention Li Shu."
"But what do you say about me?" He was still puzzled.
"You said that this article you posted,"
"This... he doesn't believe it either." Jiang Kaicheng muttered, "If I can write this kind of article, then am I still myself?"
Lin Jingran sighed: "You said the evidence you provided."
"let me try……"

Li Shu was in trouble. At noon, she went to the cafeteria to buy food. Suddenly, an unfamiliar man sat opposite her. He bought a bottle of mineral water and asked casually:
"The article you posted?"
Li Shu was surprised that they were able to find him so quickly, but he remained calm.
"What are you talking about, I don't know."
"Well-written," the man praised, and then said, "10, delete it and say you made it up."
"I don't know what you're talking about." Li Shu opened her phone under the table and sent a garbled message to Jiang Kaicheng - she pinned him to the top of the list so that she could send him a message for help at a critical moment.
"10 is not enough?"
——Jiang Kaicheng was in Lin Jingran’s office. When he saw WeChat and the two of them looked at each other, he dared not breathe and immediately went to drive the car.
"Little girl, you need to be smarter. You are in such a good school..." He glanced around and then returned his gaze to Li Shu, "Are you still going to school?"
Li Shu remained calm: "Are you threatening me?"
"Look at you," the man began to laugh, "you are so brave despite your young age."
"I'm not brave," Li Shu met his gaze, "It's just my job."
"Are you admitting that you wrote it?" He started laughing again. "Eggs hitting stones."
She stood up and dumped out the leftovers - she really couldn't eat any more, then started walking back toward the dormitory building. The man who had been behind her suddenly stopped her and pointed to a car not far away: "Our car is right there, let's go and have a chat?"
"Let go," Li Shu wanted to break free, but the man held on tightly: "I'll give you more money."
She suddenly started shouting, "Human trafficking, I don't know him! Come and help me!"
Many girls bravely gathered around, and one girl shouted in the crowd: "Let her go or I'll call the police."
Lin Jingran and Jiang Kaicheng just happened to arrive. "Shushu," Jiang Kaicheng called out and ran towards her hurriedly. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man left quickly.
