A master of both medicine and martial arts, he picked up a beautiful CEO as his wife.

Not long after the Yun family left, the entire city of Dongyang was doused with excrement the very next day.

Initially, it was just a gossip account that published a few "explosive" posts. But overnight, these accounts seemed to have sprung up like an invisible hand, instantly dominating the phone wallpapers of all the people of Dongyang.

Shocking! The secret of the Dongyang Goddess: A billionaire actually spent a summer with a mysterious "puppy-like" guy!

Why isn't the eldest daughter of the Lin family married yet? An insider revealed: She was already taken by a certain experienced driver, blinded by lust!

What kind of medical technology? It's probably a honey trap! Let's peel back the layers of that cute little "miracle doctor" next to Lin Yuqing...

Every word was malicious and despicable.

In other posts, Ye Feng is portrayed as a conman, a swindler who lives off women and sleeps with female bosses. Lin Yuqing is depicted as a naive girl who is deceived and seduced, blinded by lust.

There are also pictures, which are various candid photos of Ye Feng and Lin Yuqing being inseparable over the past six months. These photos were carefully selected and deliberately cropped to capture the most interesting parts, creating a lot of ambiguity.

Even more disgusting, it went straight to Lin Yuqing's two most vulnerable spots—her reputation as the Goddess of Dongyang and the reputation upon which the Lin family depended for survival.

Public opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of the government.

In the blink of an eye, everyone was buzzing with discussion. Some were just watching the drama unfold, some were spreading rumors, and some were kicking someone when they were down. Even some of Lin's partners who had initially wanted to explore cooperation opportunities began to hesitate. On the phone, it was either, "I'm in a meeting," or "Take your time, think it over!"

Even within the Lin family, there was some turmoil, because the head of the Lin family had taken a very ruthless step. What he threw away was not just Ye Feng's personal excrement, but also Lin Yuqing's reputation and the core of the Lin family's standing in Dongyang—integrity.

Lin Yuqing gritted her teeth, gripping her phone so tightly her fingers turned white. "You scoundrel!" "Nonsense!!"

"Don't be angry." Ye Feng was surprisingly calm, and slowly picked up a photo to look at it. "The insults are so well-coordinated, so accurate, the pictures are so complete, and they're all so convenient. It sounds like a collective action by netizens. It's like a company paid a high price to hire a group of online trolls to smear you!"

Lin Yuqing took a deep breath, forcibly swallowing her anger and regaining some of the composure befitting a CEO: "Is it the same hand as the people on the construction site and the suppliers?"

"Most likely." Ye Feng nodded. "We need to take down that lackey Qian Chongwen. He's changed his tactics, resorting to underhanded methods, starting with your reputation."

"Strike the snake at its vital point—that's a truly ruthless move!"

"What's in it for him?"

"It's going to be a mess!" Ye Feng said, emphasizing each word. "Once things get chaotic, you, as the boss, will have to divert your energy to put out the fire and clarify the facts. Once the Lin family's reputation is damaged, your business partners will waver, and you'll be overwhelmed and constantly busy."

He wanted to keep both of us entangled in this mess in Dongyang, so neither of us had a chance to think about going back to the mountain.

He paused for a moment, then tossed the photo onto the table.

"What's even more sinister is that there's a hook in this pot!"

"What hook?"

"A bodyguard of unknown origin and a charlatan." Ye Feng sneered. "He's testing me, probing the depths of this 'miracle doctor,' whether he can hold his own."

Moreover, it's a test to see if the people around you, your allies, will waver or abandon you because of this dirty water.

To put it bluntly, this was just testing the waters.

Lin Yuqing's face turned completely gloomy.

Having fought in the business world for many years, she was well aware of this kind of public opinion war. It could wound people's hearts without leaving visible scars; it could kill without drawing blood without seeing swords. The "Goddess of Dongyang" archway that Lin Yuqing had painstakingly built was about to be ruined by this filthy water!

What angered her even more was that Ye Feng had also been contaminated in this basin of dirty water.

In the past six months, he risked his life for the Lin family, protecting her and shielding her from harm without taking a single penny. Yet, he was labeled a "gold digger who hooked up with a female CEO and lived off her." Lin Yuqing could tolerate being wronged, but she could not bear to see the man who had risked his life for her being inexplicably labeled a "gold digger who cheated her out of money and sex."

"Then... then I'll just have to bear with it," Lin Yuqing said unwillingly.

"Endure it?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow. "When have I, Ye Feng, ever endured anything?"

Ye Feng got up and paced back and forth in the study, a calculating glint gradually appearing in his eyes.

"The worst thing about spreading rumors is trying to explain yourself," he said slowly. "The more you explain, the more motivated they become, thinking you're guilty. What they fear is... evidence!"

"Didn't he say that I was a gigolo, a womanizer who cheated me out of money and sex?"

"Alright, then I'll lay out everything you've done for the Lin family and for me, including how much money I took from the Lin family and what I didn't take, and what money I did take, and put it all on the table for the whole of Dongyang to see."

"Use irrefutable facts to pour this dirty water back in his face."

Lin Yuqing's eyes lit up.

"It's not just about pouring it back." Ye Feng's eyes suddenly turned cold. "I'm going to trace the source of this filth and find the hands that splashed it, then expose them to the light of day."

"Spreading rumors is easy," Ye Feng sneered. "But hiring online trolls costs money, right? Pushing posts requires connections, right? And the money has to be transferred through the bank, right?" He grinned, showing his teeth. "As long as you're spending your own money, you'll always find clues!"

"Wanqing..." Ye Feng glanced at Lin Yuqing, "Tell her to check the accounts. She's the best at manipulating money!"

Ye Feng knows Zhu Wanqing very well.

Previously, when she was being investigated, she thoroughly investigated Tianheng's shady accounts and dug them out one by one!

Now, the other party is resorting to the trick of spending money to generate buzz and hiring people to criticize!

it is good!

This time, the other party just happened to run right into the line of fire!

Lin Yuqing could also see it; the anger in her eyes had turned into a calm and confident demeanor.

She immediately picked up the phone and made the call!

Ye Feng stood in front of the window, his eyes growing increasingly cold!

The man who threw the dirty water probably thought he could get away with it by hiding behind an online troll account!

Little did they know that by following the money he left behind, they might be able to dig all the way down to him!
