Chapter 55 - About To Be Exposed ("So tell me. Who are you really, hmm?") (2)
And that was how things worked more or less in the business word. Some times a big contract could be negotiated over a sip of wine or a cigarette. Sometimes, one could bend over backward to no avail.
Bai FeiChen could tell that she had already connected the dots and added, “He isn’t just the capital behind Qin Sheng. Words had it that he has some sort of relationships with Mu XiYuan’s brother as well.”
To put it simply, he’s someone from the opposite side.
Xu WanZhi nodded profoundly. She hadn’t expected that Mu ZhenYu has been facing enemies coming from so many different directions. The situation was worse than she had anticipated. He even has a brother who was still waiting stealthily on the sideline.
Having a lot of enemies was one thing; the enemies colluding with each other was a whole different ballgame.
Speaking of his brother Mu XiYuan, Xu WanZhi was reminded that she had used “Taking the Yan for the Yin” on him the very first day that she had transmigrated over and caused him a lot of damage. Such a long time had past since then, she wondered whether he was still alive or had gotten any better.
Seeing that Xu WanZhi had fallen into deep thought, Bai FeiChen comforted her, “Don’t worry about what is going on in the business world, Miss Xu. Just take him back quickly and get some rest yourself.”
Having said that, he even nicely opened the car door for her.
“Okay, I will.” Xu WanZhi got inside the car docilely and waved at him.
Inside the car, Mu ZhenYu sat in the seat in a spread-eagle way and snored like it was nobody’s business.
Xu WanZhi had never seen him in such an unkempt state. She covered her mouth, smiled, and asked the chauffeur to turn the air-conditioning down.
It was already past midnight when they got back to their apartment. Luckily the chauffeur was quite strong and was able to drag Mu ZhenYu back to the bedroom by himself. Xu WanZhi worried about him going to sleep just like that and went over to the kitchen to make him a cup of honey water. She tucked on his ear and called out to him for a while before she was able to wake him to have some of the drink.
Mu ZhenYu opened his eyes up into a slit, took a look at her, groggily had half a cup of the water before he laid back down.
Xu WanZhi shook her head in resignation and struggled to remove his suit, shirt and pants – revealing in front of her eyes were his well-defined and sturdy muscles.
Looking at the stabbing scar on his waist, she suddenly recalled the day when he held her hand and told her about his past and let her stroke his scar over and over again…
When she came to, her cheeks were burning a little.
She stood up and pulled the blanket over his waist. When she was about to turn and walk away, he had reached out and grabbed her by her wrist.
“Aye.” His voice had always been deep and thick. It was even more lazy and sexy when mixed a night of drinking. “Who are you?”
She frowned slightly. She had been running around all night long helping him undress and feeding him beverage that would help him feel better in the morning and he didn’t even know who she was?
Standing where she was, she said in resignation, “Xu WanZhi.”
Unexpectedly, he paused for a while, then busted out laughing as though she had just said something very funny. He waved his hand and said, “No, you are not Xu WanZhi.”
Xu WanZhi, too, was a little stunned. She opened up her mouth a little and, in that moment, was not able to tell if he meant what he said or whether he was just drunk.
Outside of the window came another thundering noise…. It was probably going to be another thunderous night.
He rolled over and faced upward. Placing his right hand over his forehead and with his left hand still holding onto her wrist tightly, he said, “You are definitely not Xu WanZhi. So, tell me, who are you really, hmm?”
