Chapter 336 Li Wei helps set up the trap

After Kong Weiwei left, Fu Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief, but the relief didn't last long. He knew Kong Weiwei wasn't someone who would easily give up, and that her smile concealed more than just calculations. Fu Siyuan returned to the newspaper office, maintaining a "friendly relationship" with Kong Weiwei on the surface, but inwardly, he was constantly wary of her next move.

A few days later, Fu Siyuan received an anonymous email. Attached to the email was a recording of Kong Weiwei admitting her misconduct at a TV conference. The email was brief but profound: "Siyuan, be careful of Kong Weiwei. She won't let you off easily."

Fu Siyuan's heart sank as he realized Kong Weiwei hadn't given up and was secretly plotting something. He immediately contacted Li Wei and told him the contents of the email.

"Li Wei, Kong Weiwei must be planning something. She won't give up easily." Fu Siyuan's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety.

Li Wei was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "Siyuan, don't panic. Since she dared to leave such a recording, it means she has a backup plan. We must first stabilize her and speed up our plan."

Fu Siyuan nodded: "I understand. I will continue to deal with her. Have you found anything?"

Li Wei sighed. "I've been investigating her network and discovered that her relationship with the TV station's top brass is much more complicated than we imagined. She might have sensed we were investigating her, so she left this recording to try to scare us off."

Fu Siyuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Then we have to speed up our actions. I can't let her continue to control me, nor can I let her hurt Wanqing."

Li Wei nodded. "I understand. I'll contact people inside the TV station to see if I can find more evidence. You also have to be careful here and don't let her notice our plan."

Kong Weiwei did not seem to be restrained by the recording in the email. Instead, she appeared in Fu Siyuan's life more frequently, trying to make him let down his guard.

"Siyuan, I think we can work together on a bigger project." Kong Weiwei said during a lunch. Her smile was still sweet, but there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.

Fu Siyuan smiled slightly: "Weiwei, I appreciate your suggestion, but I've been a little busy with work recently and may not have that much energy."

Kong Weiwei's expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal: "Siyuan, I know you are an ambitious person. This opportunity is rare, don't miss it."

Fu Siyuan sneered inwardly. He knew Kong Weiwei was trying to tempt him with her career, but he was no longer someone who could be easily manipulated. He deliberately stalled for time, making Kong Weiwei think he was still hesitating while also waiting for news from Li Wei.

A few days later, Fu Siyuan discovered that Kong Weiwei began to approach Zhang Wanqing. He realized that Kong Weiwei might take action against Zhang Wanqing, so he immediately notified Li Wei.

"Li Wei, Wanqing may be in danger!" Fu Siyuan's voice was a little hurried.

Li Wei took action immediately. He contacted Lin Yue and asked her to protect Zhang Wanqing. At the same time, they decided to create an "accident" inside the TV station to expose Kong Weiwei's crimes.

Tensions within the TV station were growing. Kong Weiwei's project planning meeting was scheduled for a week later, and Fu Siyuan and Li Wei's plan was entering its final stages. Li Wei, through insiders within the TV station, learned that Kong Weiwei had been in frequent contact with higher-ups recently, seemingly planning a larger counterattack.

Fu Siyuan decided to take the initiative. He took advantage of his "cooperation" with Kong Weiwei and deliberately proposed a bold project plan at a meeting. When Kong Weiwei saw Fu Siyuan's plan, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.

"Siyuan, this plan is very creative, but it is also very risky. Are you sure you want to do this?" Kong Weiwei's voice was tentative.

Fu Siyuan smiled slightly: "Weiwei, I trust my own judgment. Besides, I think this project is an opportunity for us."

Kong Weiwei nodded: "Okay, since you are so confident, let's give it a try."

After the meeting, Fu Siyuan and Li Wei immediately took action. They compiled Kong Weiwei's recordings into a comprehensive report and sent it anonymously to the TV station's senior management. At the same time, Li Wei contacted several key figures within the TV station and asked them to "accidentally" mention Kong Weiwei's inappropriate behavior during the meeting.

A few days later, a storm erupted within the TV station. Kong Weiwei was summoned for a discussion by higher-ups, while Fu Siyuan and Li Wei secretly observed. The recording was played back by higher-ups, completely exposing Kong Weiwei's misconduct.

"Kong Weiwei, do you have anything else to say?" the TV station executive asked coldly.

Kong Weiwei's face turned pale as she realized she had no way out. She raised her head, a hint of resentment in her eyes: "Who are you? Why are you doing this to me?"

At this moment, Fu Siyuan and Li Wei came out. Fu Siyuan looked at Kong Weiwei with a look of determination in his eyes: "Weiwei, you took advantage of my kindness, but I won't let you lead me by the nose forever. Now, everything is over."

"Siyuan, I know I took advantage of you at work, but I was also thinking about our future. We will get married and have children in the future. How can we achieve success if we don't make a lot of money and climb up the social ladder?" Kong Weiwei said.

"Weiwei, people don't live for fame and success. Maybe you like those things, but I don't. You and I are not the same kind of people." Fu Siyuan said.

"Yes, Miss Kong, you and Fu Siyuan are not the same kind of people. He can't do what you do. He is an honest man." Li Wei also said.

"Then, Siyuan, tell me, what are you pursuing? Is it those so-called journalistic ideals and truth?" Kong Weiwei asked back.

"Yes, what I pursue is the ideal of journalism. From the moment I entered university and started studying journalism, I vowed to be true to my heart. Even if there are many helplessness, temptations, money, etc. in reality, I will not change my original intention." Fu Siyuan said confidently.

Kong Weiwei shook her head. She simply couldn't believe there were such pure people in the world. Faced with money and fame, she chose to abandon her journalistic ideals. Perhaps Fu Siyuan would think her worldly, but she didn't. She believed that if people lived too purely, they would lose a lot of joy. Or rather, people who were too pure couldn't adapt to society because they were too naive and would one day be eliminated by society.

"Siyuan, you will gradually understand the unspoken rules of society and understand my current choice." Kong Weiwei said finally.

Kong Weiwei was eventually fired from the TV station, and her career was completely over. Fu Siyuan and Li Wei's plan was successful, but they knew that the complexity of the media industry was far beyond their imagination. They also understood that as long as they insisted on justice, nothing could stop them.
