Feng Shui Secrets of the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 329 The List of the White Dragon King

"I thought it was Li Er who was targeting Zhenbang, and that everything would be over once Zhenbang was dead. I never imagined they wouldn't even let Zhenbang die peacefully. And I never expected that the one truly targeting Zhenbang was Li Da!"

Mentioning Brother Ning, the White Dragon King seemed to have aged many years.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; the Li family, father and sons, are all beasts!" Fatty Lin said.

The White Dragon King didn't reply. Instead, he stared down at the teacup in his hand, his eyes gradually becoming vacant, as if he were lost in thought.

We didn't speak, and the atmosphere seemed to freeze for a moment.

"Retribution may be delayed, but it will come eventually. Besides Xiang Huasheng, there was another person who helped Li Er harm Zhenbang back then!"

After a long while, the White Dragon King spoke again.

"There's another person? Who is it?" I asked.

"Let's talk about bronze inscriptions!" said the White Dragon King.

"Tan Jinwen? That evergreen singer, the one who had a rivalry with Ning Ge?"

Fatty Lin chimed in.

"Yes, that's him!"

Bai Wanglong nodded and said, "Back when Li Er wanted to execute Zhenbang, Tan Jinwen was the cunning strategist who offered many advice!"

Lin the Fat and I exchanged a glance, completely surprised that it was him.

This person has a very good reputation both inside and outside the industry, but reputation is actually the same as a persona, and it can be cultivated.

"Who would have thought? This guy looks all thick-browed and big-eyed, but he's actually a treacherous bastard!"

"Lin the Fat Man muttered to himself."

"What kind of good person would he be, having an affair behind his wife's back and even having a child with her?" Long Nier said coldly.

"It's normal for celebrities in the industry to have mistresses. What's really malicious about Jin Wen is that he's looking for a mistress!" said the White Dragon King.

"Where is it?" I asked.

Having been in the entertainment industry for so many years and having adopted so many godchildren, the White Dragon King knew the true character of those celebrities perfectly well. Anyone he considered malicious was undoubtedly the most malicious of all.

"He and his wife have no children, not because they are infertile. His wife had been pregnant several times before, but she had abortions all of them. Because she had abortions too many times, she is now unable to have children!" said the White Dragon King.

"Remove it? Why remove it? Aren't they legally together?" Long Nier asked.

"He was worried that having a child would hinder his career, so he tricked his wife into having an abortion. Later, because he had too many abortions, he couldn't get pregnant anymore!"

"He initially used deception on that mistress, telling her he wasn't married!"

"It wasn't until she got pregnant and couldn't hide it anymore that she told him the truth: he was already married!"

"And then?" I asked.

"This mistress is also cunning; she claims she's willing to be the woman behind him for life, and that their relationship doesn't matter even if it's never made public!"

"Then why did he publicly admit it a couple of years ago?" Long Nier asked, puzzled.

Two years ago, Tan Jinwen publicly admitted that he had a mistress and an illegitimate child.

"Ni'er, if you had stayed with a man since he was humble, and had many children for his career, to the point that you couldn't get pregnant, and then one day you found out that this man not only had a mistress behind your back, but also had a child with the mistress, could you accept that?" The White Dragon King didn't answer, but asked a question in return.

"I will kill him, his mistress, and all of their children!" Long Nier said expressionlessly.

"No, Nier, could you please not look at me when you say that? I didn't have an affair!"

I felt uneasy under Long Nier's gaze, and I understood why the White Dragon King also approved of Tan Jinwen's insidious methods.

Most of the celebrities in the industry are openly bad, but Tan Jinwen is a typical hypocrite, both vicious and insidious.

"Brother, you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of?" Long Nier said coldly.

"hehe!"

I forced a smile and didn't dare to say anything. Judging from Long Ni'er's expression, if I said anything more, I would definitely suffer the consequences.

After criticizing me, Long Nier looked at the White Dragon King and asked, "Uncle Nan, is Tan Jinwen's wife just going to put up with this?"

"How could I possibly tolerate this? Even a clay figure has some temper!" said the White Dragon King.

"So, Tan Jinwen's admission of having a mistress and an illegitimate child was her revenge?" Long Nier asked.

"That's not all!"

The White Dragon King shook his head and said, "She went to Southeast Asia, found a witch doctor, and had her cast a curse on that illegitimate child!"

"waste!"

Upon hearing this, Long Nier snorted and said, "Why would you harm a child? The culprit is Tan Jinwen. I originally wanted to help her, but now it seems I was overthinking it!"

"Indeed, the culprit is Tan Jinwen, and if any revenge is to be taken, it should be against him!" The White Dragon King nodded.

After saying that, he thought for a moment and said, "Tan Jinwen might come here in a while!"

"Come here with us?"

Fatty Lin frowned and asked, "What? To break the curse?"

"The curse on his son has been lifted, but it left him with aftereffects. His health has never been very good. In the past two years, he has sought help from many masters to treat his son's health, and even came to me for help!" The White Dragon King pointed to himself at the end.

"Uncle Nan, did you help?" I asked.

"Didn't help!"

The White Dragon King shook his head and said, "Most of my magic has dissipated, so I can't help even if I wanted to. Judging from his expression, he hates me and thinks I'm deliberately refusing to help!"

"We won't help either!" Fatty Lin said.

"Whether you help or not is up to you!"

The White Dragon King sighed and said, "In a few days, I will compile a list for you. The people on this list are all those who harmed Zhenbang. I am old, and after breaking my vows, most of my magic has dissipated. I don't know how many more years I have left to live. I will not be able to see the retribution for some of them. I would like to ask you to keep an eye on them for me, is that alright?"

"good!"

Fatty Lin and I exchanged a glance and nodded.

"Uncle Nan, may I ask you why you treat Brother Ning so well?" Fatty Lin asked.

"Perhaps it was fate, or perhaps it's because I sacrificed ten years of my lifespan to save him, and I'm a little resentful!"

The White Dragon King said.

"Uncle Nan, are you saying that you sacrificed ten years of your lifespan to save Brother Ning back then?" I was a little surprised.

"Um!"

The White Dragon King nodded and said, "Everyone has selfish desires, and so do I. I'm just an ordinary person, no different from most others. If I were a god as the outside world says, I wouldn't have lost my integrity in my later years, couldn't control myself, broke the precepts, and caused most of my magic to dissipate!"

That's true. The White Dragon King kept his vows for most of his life, but in the end, he couldn't control himself and fell for the tricks of those female celebrities. Or rather, the longer he kept his vows, the stronger those feelings became, until they became uncontrollable.

"There's a term these days called sunk cost, right? I've invested too much in Zhenbang, and there's no way to save him now. I'm not willing to accept this!"

"So, I want to see what happens to those who harmed Zhenbang!"
