Chapter 77: The wooden beauty of Young Master Sheng
Chapter 77: Sweet and Soft Makes People Compromise Easily
"Young Master Sheng, that person named Zhan Chen in Country A is quite easy to investigate. He controls the underground scene and is a big shot in the underworld, managing various industries such as gambling, real estate, and wineries. However, it's been a long time since anyone has seen him, and there are rumors about his health not being good."
"Two years ago, Zhan Chen had a major conflict with another underground group, causing a significant uproar that even caught the attention of the country's leaders. In the end, Zhan Chen seized the sole control of the underground and gradually whitewashed his image. His relationship with the leaders behind the scenes is also not simple."
Sheng Mingsi listened as Wu Bi reported, frowning, and asked, "A national person?"
Wu Bi replied, "Mixed-race from Country A."
Sheng Mingsi adjusted his chair, checked Zhan Chen on the computer, and found only one photo online. Zhan Chen was wearing a suit, looking slim, with pale almost sickly skin. His facial features were delicate, and his eyes resembled the brilliance of the moon, with a smirk on his lips that seemed eerie.
Wu Bi's voice continued, "Also, Young Master Sheng, the doctor who took Jiang Chenchen to Country A two years ago, despite having a family, had impure intentions. He was stabbed in the body abroad, dying in his apartment. Strangely, it wasn't a murder; it was a suicide by the doctor himself."
Sheng Mingsi kept his gaze on the computer's photo of Zhan Chen. "Suicide?"
Wu Bi was also puzzled. "It can only be suicide. He stabbed himself in the heart with a knife, holding the knife tightly in his hand."
As he spoke, he sent over all the relevant information about the incident.
Sheng Mingsi opened and examined the photos of the crime scene from two years ago. The images were still gruesome, but the act looked more like an action taken out of fear.
Combined with Jiang Chenchen's mention of fear, it could be the result of Zhan Chen's ruthless and threatening methods.
"He seems like a madman. Assign a few people to keep an eye on him. If he doesn't return to the country, it's fine, but report immediately if there's any sign of him coming back."
After giving orders, Sheng Mingsi hung up the phone and looked again at the photo of Zhan Chen.
His cold eyes darkened, and he closed the webpage.
...
This time, when Jiang Chenchen got off the plane, she ran into Lu Su at the airport.
Lu Su, seeing her, felt a bit awkward. The incident of chasing her after getting drunk last time was still embarrassing. However, he was also curious about the man who suddenly appeared. Who was he?
He seemed like a difficult and dignified person.
He wanted to walk over to Jiang Chenchen, but was surrounded by a crowd of fans, unable to break free.
Jiang Chenchen had experienced such scenes of fan worship before and quickly distanced herself. However, she didn't go far, and she could still hear the clicking sound of cameras. The lens was almost about to hit her face.
She looked over, and the person taking photos called out her name.
They became even more enthusiastic.
She didn't like the feeling of being chased and photographed. In the past, she might have thrown a punch at the camera, but now she simply walked faster. The photographer followed a few steps, breathing heavily, before giving up and putting down the camera, bending over to catch their breath.
"Darn it, this is like a split-style walking method, so fast!"
Jiang Chenchen walked out of the airport, got into the car, and her assistant, Lu Fang, looked unsurprised. "Look, you're not even a celebrity, and there are fans taking pictures of you!"
"Why are they taking pictures of me?"
"Because you're beautiful. In the entertainment industry, beauty is a significant driving force. There's a group of beauty lovers who only enjoy editing and shooting videos of beautiful women. Don't you know? After each episode airs, your personal edits generate quite a bit of content."
Lu Fang told her this, hoping that she would enter this circle. Moreover, she would find it much easier than others. The person Mr. Gu favored would be vigorously supported.
However, Jiang Chenchen had no response.
She didn't even respond after listening, just leaned against the car seat, looking out the window at the endless blue sky.
Lu Fang's expression was slightly unpleasant. Although this person was someone Mr. Gu wanted to promote, she was always unresponsive and impolite. Even the company's artists, who were lower-tier, wouldn't be so dismissive.
She felt short-sighted. In the future, entering this circle, she might miss out on some money.
At the filming location, Jiang Chenchen put down her suitcase and was about to go out when Zhan Mo silently walked in. She first showed a brilliant and cute smile, then said, "How have you been recently?"
Jiang Chenchen nodded in response.
Zhan Mo then approached a bit more, asking in a low voice, "How do you know Ye Xi?"
Jiang Chenchen thought for a moment. Should she start from the kick she gave him?
Seeing her not responding, Zhan Mo spoke with some resentment, "He's really a scumbag. We had a few dates, and then he stopped contacting me. Is that the same with you?"
Jiang Chenchen didn't understand.
"Scumbag?"
Zhan Mo lowered her voice, puffing her cheeks. "Indeed, a scumbag. A notorious playboy. Although I'm not willing to accept it, it's fine since I didn't suffer any losses after all."
She appeared invincible and adorable, but her words didn't match her appearance.
Jiang Chenchen felt the mockery in her words and chose not to engage.
"Hey hey hey, just kidding. Don't be angry!" After interacting with Jiang Chenchen a few times, Zhan Mo genuinely liked her. In this entertainment industry, it's not easy to speak the truth. In front of Jiang Chenchen, she could try to mix some honesty with jokes.
She quickly apologized, hugging Jiang Chenchen's arm, leaning on her shoulder, and blinking her eyes. "Love you, you know."
Jiang Chenchen looked at her, feeling like she had once again learned that sweet and soft voices easily made people compromise.
The last episode's recording location still revolved around seaside scenery—romantic walks, sea breezes, noon tacit cooperation, a couple's atmosphere, and then the night of talking all night, heart-moving topics.
As well as the next day's main recording, a masked ball with makeup, a confession, and a heart-moving kiss.
The program announcements were all sent out.
Zhan Mo took a sweet selfie, posted it on her Moments, and attached the announcement, visible only to Ye Xi.
Ye Xi, scrolling through Moments, saw it and quickly took a screenshot, sending it to the "Four Young Masters" group.
Shuai Brother who looked great: "Explosive news! Young Master Sheng, your wife is having a second affair!"
Then he posted the photo.
