These were among the top trending topic that was discussed on social media.

Because the group of thugs was said to be involved with drugs, Yan Yi Xie was implicated with that matter as well.

Suddenly, the netizen was saying that Yan Yi Xie was doing drugs as well.

After his arrest was broadcasted live, the public could not stop talking about this matter. His fans were in disbelief. However, the person who had broadcast the arrestment was one of his loyal fans. The member of his fan club was suddenly at loss at what to do.

On this day, Yan Yi Xie got what he had wished for.

He was crazy about popularity and wanted people to continue to talk about him. With this news, the netizen was unable to stop talking about him.

His name and his topic entered the top trending topic and stayed at the number one spot. It was expected that unless there will be another shocking news, Yan Yi Xie’s name will continue to stay on the top spot for days…

Yan Yi Xie’s studio was in shock at this sudden development. This was an issue that they never thought they would face. Because of this, they were a little slow to take action.

The matter continued to be bigger until they could no longer control it.

A few hours after Yan Yi Xie was arrested, his social media and his fan club were immediately closed. His endorsement was pulled out and they were discussing letting Yan Yi Xie and his agency pay some penalty.

Meanwhile, Yan Yi Xie’s loyal fan was still unable to believe this news. Yan Yi Xie was someone who always had a good reputation. They did not believe that YanYi Xie would have the courage to kill an ant. How can it be that he was hiring thugs to murder someone?

In just a few hours, his hard-core fans gathered in front of the police station to protest.

They argued that Yan Yi Xie was framed by his enemy. They demanded the police to reinvestigate this matter and help the celebrity to clear his name.

There were a large number of fans and reporters gathering outside the police station. The police could only ask them to disperse and gave them a warning not to disturb the peace and the investigation.

Yan Yi Xie walked back and forth in the investigation room and bit at his nails.

After a few days, he no longer look like the Yan Yi Xie that his fans once knew. Everything about him was in a mess.

He was put behind the bars and could only talk to his lawyer. He did not know what was going on outside. Without knowing the situation outside, how could he make any move?

His steps halted once he heard the movement coming from the door.

Yan Yi Xie turned around and saw that it was the captain who had detained him at the broadcasting station the other day. Behind the captain was his lawyer.

The captain gave him a look over before motioning him to sit down. Meanwhile, his lawyer continued to stay silent. His gaze on Yan Yi Xie was unreadable.

“Officer,” Yan Yi Xie lurched forward but did not dare to get too close to the policeman. “You have to help me. I was framed! I would never do anything that would harm another.”

The captain leaned back on his seat and looked at the celebrity with a lazy gaze. “Alright. You can stop shouting around. Nothing you say was going to change anything.”

Yan Yi Xie’s stared at the captain sharply. “Are you planning to detain me without evidence? You can’t do this. This is a misuse of power!”

The captain slammed the document in his hand on the table loudly, making Yan Yi Xie startle. “I ask you to sit down, what are you doing? Do you think that we have that much time to play around with you? Let me tell you this… Mr. Yan, we have concrete evidence of your crime.”

“It was a lie! You shouldn’t trust the evidence! Someone must have planted those evidence to frame me.”

“Your Assistant had already confessed and cooperate with us.”

What did the police had said? His assistant? Ah Wei?

Yan Yi Xie suddenly remember that he was unable to contact his assistant briefly before he was arrested. He did not expect that Ah Wei would betray him.

The police opened the brown envelope and pulled out the evidence. “What more can you say?”

Yan Yi Xie’s eyes flickered as he looked at those documents. They were all evidence and transactions of his dealing with the thugs.

A loud gasp escaped him upon seeing that the transaction was dated for years back.

Yan Yi Xie would never think that the group of thugs would be keeping trails that would lead the police to him.

Those stupid thugs! Why would they keep anything like this?

Yan Yi Xie was furious! However, what could he do or say to defend himself?

“Mr. Yan,” the lawyer spoke the first time since he entered the room. “I suggest you cooperate with the police. To be honest, with your current situation, not many wanted to take your case. The evidence against you is too strong. Perhaps, if you confess, your punishment would go lighter.”

…

After almost a week of investigation, the police finally gave out their statement.

Celebrity Yan Yi Xie was guilty of hiring thugs with the intention of harming. The police stated that they have enough evidence and witness to convict him of this crime. However, the name of the people he wanted to harm was not disclosed.

Soon, the money transfer record between Yan Yi Xie and the group of thugs was exposed along with some transcription of Yan Yi Xie’s conversation with those thugs.

His fans continued to make noise but once they saw the evidence, everyone kept their mouth shut.

Although people were still talking about Yan Yi Xie, the number of people who wanted to defend him was not that many.

Some of the netizens had too much time in their hands and began to make an investigation of their own. According to the date of the money transfer and their conversation, the netizen figured out the person that Yan Yi Xie wanted to harm.

Huo Yun Chen’s name was among the name that appeared on the list.

The netizen dug deeper and was shocked to find out that Yan Yi Xie had hired those thugs to cause Huo Yun Chen’s accident a few years ago. According to the timeline, this news was believed to be accurate.

Moreover, each time those accidents happened, the person who would gain the most was Yan Yi Xie.

The netizen’s opinion towards Yan Yi Xie began to change. Many were condemning him for doing such things for the sake of popularity.
