Returning to his room, Gu Ziyue sat pondering for quite a while before he eventually opened his laptop and sent an email to a friend, asking for help in gathering some information.

Within twenty minutes, Gu Ziyes inbox pinged with a reply, along with an attachment containing all the details about Camellia and boy, was he surprised.

Wow! Is Camellia really this incredible? Gu Ziyue scrolled through the doc.u.ment with widened eyes, reading the remarkable details about her, his mouth agape in astonishment.

Gu Ziyes eyes glued to the screen, he read aloud, Became famous at 17 with a fas.h.i.+on design for the National Beauty Sky. Wow, stunning.

At 18, entered an international compet.i.tion alone, standing out amongst numerous renowned designers both nationally and internationally, and won first place. Became the first person from Leucia to win a gold award globally. Thats bada.s.s.

At 19, founded the highly sought-after brand, Qiyan Studio, which has been unrivaled in the fas.h.i.+on world to this day, specializing only in haute couture. d.a.m.n.

At 20, she retired? In the design world, shes known as a

legendever-present in stories but absent in person. The Great Artist BlankCanvas. What? Retired at 20? Whats she retiring from at such a young age?

Wait a minute! It suddenly hit Gu Ziye. Hed looked into Camellia before when he was considering a design venture for Jingsheng Corporation. Back then, he couldnt find any of this information. He wondered how all these details appeared out of nowhere.

A chill ran down Gu Ziyues spine. He s.h.i.+vered, then continued scrolling through the dossier on Camellia.

The more Gu Ziye read, the more engrossed he became as if he was reading not about a stranger but his closest confidant and partner.

Ha, now with both Qiyan Studio and Camellia, Id like to see who dares to compete with me! Gu Ziyue chuckled.

However, just as he reached the final page, a creepy face suddenly popped up on the screen, giving him quite a jolt. Below it, a line of text floated up.

Unfilial son, done reading your dads files?

Next to the text, in artistic font, was the word Qi accompanied by a grotesque face with a big nose, red lips, and a face full of freckles.

What the h.e.l.l is this monstrosity? My eyes! Gu Ziye cursed.

But upon a closer look, Gu Ziye realized that the grotesque face resembled his own.

d.a.m.n it! Furious, Gu Ziyue sprang to his feet, tempted to punch his laptop screen into smithereens.

Why did I feel like Id been played? How could all this be a mere coincidence? That cheeky tone, the audacious Qi, and that obnoxious distortion of my face. I refused to believe this wasnt a prank by Rong Qi!

Gu Ziye sent another email to his friend, asking, [Are you sure this is the information you gathered for me?]

The reply came swiftly, [I apologize, Mr. Gu. Ill refund your million. I just saw the same information on Baidu as well]

Gu Ziyue was puzzled. His friend: [Dont ask me, I know nothing. Playing dead is the best course of action now.]

With that, Gu Ziyes friends profile picture turned gray.

Speechless, Gu Ziyue closed the email and opened Baidu.

Sure enough, when Gu Ziye typed Camellias name into the search bar again, the information matched word for word what hed just readexcept for that infuriating line and his grotesque face.

The handsome features of Gu Ziyues face began to show cracks of disbelief.. He wondered, Could all this information have been uploaded by Rong Qi herself? Otherwise, how could it be that just after the ident.i.ty of the Qiyan Studios boss had been exposed, all this information had been added?
