Chapter 237: Bribe

Laohu entered a small, dark room inside the large building. The hallways should have been empty at this point, but two individuals remained. 

The sound of keyboard clicks resonated in the room, and only the monitor screen illuminated the entire place. 

"I've thought about it," a man with a bowl cut stood and faced the tall guy who had been pestering him ever since 'Rising Stars' started. 

"I don't think I can do it. Lin Zhi's rank had been dropping every week, and it's getting harder to keep him in the top ten, much more the top eight. It would be too suspicious," he said. 

"You can just do what you've always done, Jo," Laohu said, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "You just need to click a few buttons." 

"It's easier said than done," Jo sighed. "With the gap getting bigger and bigger, it's harder to make it less obvious that everything's not what it seems." 

"Do you need anything?" Laohu asked, already brewing a plan in his mind.
