Chapter 54 - About To Be Exposed ("So tell me. Who are you really, hmm?") (1)
Xu WanZhi felt awkward but she didn’t know what to say or do.
Perhaps because it was raining, the production team wrapped up early today. Xu WanZhi wanted to give Mu ZhenYu a call to have dinner with him, but also felt that that might be a bit much.
She would probably only have fried chicken or a salad by herself. Thinking about that, she had suddenly lost her appetite so she planned to wait until later to eat.
She had expected to have fallen asleep after she laid down in bed. When she opened up her eyes again, it was already 11 o'clock.
Mu ZhenYu still wasn’t home yet. She rubbed her eyes and felt hungry. So she got up and wanted to order some delivery. But before she even clicked open the app, she received a call – it really was from Mu ZhenYu.
Her phone range for 10 or so seconds before she cleared her throat and picked it up.
Coming from the other end of the phone with Bai FeiChen’s voice. “Hello? Miss Xu? I am Bai FeiChen.”
Xu WanZhi paused for a second and said, “Yes, this is she. What’s going on?”
“Mu ZhenYu had a bit too much to drink. Can you come and pick him up with the chauffeur? I’ll send you our location.”
It took Xu WanZhi a little bit of time to process what had just happened after she had hung up. After a little while longer, she called up the chauffeur who was already sound asleep and took the nanny van to go pick up Mu ZhenYu.
The trip took a little over 30 minutes and, right after they entered into the hotel’s underground garage, Xu WanZhi could see Bai FeiChen walking out while supporting the stumbling Mu ZhenYu. Bai FeiChen also spotted Xu WanZhi right away and waved at her happily as though he had seen his savior.
Bai FeiChen, with the help of the chauffeur, got Mu ZhenYu into the car before he smoothed out his suit and said politely to Xu WanZhi, “He had a networking event tonight. I told him to gauge himself but he wouldn’t listen. Look, now he drank too much. I need to head to another event and I didn’t really want to just put him on a taxi. Please see to it that he gets home safely. Thanks.”
Xu WanZhi looked at Mu ZhenYu who was now sound asleep in the back seat and waved her hand. “Not a problem. It’s what I should do.”
There was a flash from a car’s headlight from afar and Bai FeiChen was distracted. He then pointed in the direction where the car disappeared and said, “That was the reason for the gathering tonight.”
Xu WanZhi looked in the direction that he was pointing in and saw a showy fancy sports car. With just one look, it looked like it costed at least ten times that of her nanny van.
It’s a boss for sure.
“His name is Feng Cun. Have you heard of him before?” It looked like Bai FeiChen was just gossiping with her but, in reality, he was observing her reaction.
Xu WanZhi could tell that he was testing her but… the name Feng Cun was not familiar, nor has it been mentioned in the book. So she replied honestly, “No, I haven’t.”
“He was a spoiled, rich kid before, but one day Old Mr. Feng died from a heart attack and hundreds of millions of yuan fell upon him.” Bai FeiChen, who had just said he needed to head to another event, suddenly became very talkative. “Everybody in the circle said that we’d see him try and fail and would bankrupt the Feng’s within six months. Welp, low and behold, it didn’t take long for him to become successful and even better than his dad did.”
Xu WanZhi nodded. “You mean to tell me that he’s someone who’d be very helpful to Mr. Mu’s business?”
Bai FeiChen smiled and shook his head. “Quite the opposite. He is the Qin’s Corporation’s angel investor.”
The Qin’s Corporation…. Qin Sheng.
Did Mu ZhenYu wanted to try and befriend Feng Cun Qin Sheng’s back and have him side with himself? And he had drank so much tonight for that purpose. What a pity.
