Chapter 330 - 331: Fraudulent Donation Case



Xia Yangyang thought for a moment.

She went straight to the Cherry News Agency.

Though Cherry News Agency is a gossip magazine, it has been established for a decade and is one of the older media outlets.

If that year’s incident really was as sensationalized as it was.

Perhaps somewhere an answer could be found.

Xia Yangyang was very familiar with the people in the newspaper office, she could come and go freely.

After all, she was now a popular figure in the entertainment circle, so everyone was happy to see her.

Xia Yangyang went straight to find Old Bai.

Old Bai was the oldest entertainment reporter in the newspaper office.

He was also the only reporter who had stayed at the newspaper office for more than ten years.

After listening to Xia Yangyang’s talk about the Angel Fund fraud scandal ten years ago.

Old Bai frowned and said, “I seem to remember this incident a bit, but I had just entered the trade, so I’m not very clear on many of the details. What I do remember is that the news was very hyped at the time, but because it involved some government corruption, it was all suppressed and completely censored online, it should be quite difficult to find.”

Indeed, not a trace of information could be found online.

Even when Xia Yangyang searched her mother’s name in the search engine, all that came up was a search ban.

Xia Yangyang was a bit disheartened.

However, Old Bai suddenly remembered something, “The newspaper office has a warehouse that stores every issue of the newspaper from its establishment till today. Although the news was banned at the time, there must have been reports before, so if you really want to know, I can take you to look for it.”

A glimmer of hope ignited in Xia Yangyang’s eyes, “Old Bai, thank you.”

Old Bai took Xia Yangyang to the warehouse. The newspapers piled up like mountains. Though they were stored in boxes according to the year of publication, each storage box contained at least a thousand newspapers.

Old Bai said, “The incident you’re talking about is old news from ten years ago. Although the materials are definitely in here, I can’t guarantee that you’ll find them. After all, there are too many newspapers and we don’t know which issue it is, it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack.”

However, Xia Yangyang said, “I can take my time and look for it. Old Bai, you can go about your business.”

Old Bai had assignments in the afternoon, so he quickly left.

Only Xia Yangyang was left in the warehouse.

Xia Yangyang flipped through a pile of newspapers.

She looked at them one by one, turning every page.

But there were simply too many newspapers. Xia Yangyang flipped through hundreds of newspapers for four whole hours and found nothing.

After a while, Gu Qichen called.

He said the old man wanted them to come over and have dinner at Gu Garden in the evening.

Xia Yangyang agreed.

It seemed like she wouldn’t find anything today.

Xia Yangyang stood up, planning to leave and continue searching the next day.

But her legs and feet were numb from sitting on the floor for so long.

When Xia Yangyang got up, she stumbled and knocked over a pile of newspapers.

Xia Yangyang quickly bent over to pick them up.

She suddenly saw the headline of one newspaper, “Angel or Devil? Angel Fund Manager Tan Zhen Arrested for Embezzling Donations.”

Upon seeing her mother’s name.

Xia Yangyang’s heart seemed to suddenly stop.

Above it was a photo.

It was definitely a picture of her mother in her younger days.

But there were several policemen next to her, and she was handcuffed.

Her expression was lifeless and despairing, just like a puppet on strings. It was nothing like the image of her mother that Xia Yangyang remembered.

Xia Yangyang slowly bent down and picked up the newspaper.

The report did not provide much detail.

Because it also involved political corruption, several government officials were implicated as well..
