Chapter 491: Opening Gambit

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chief Zheng was at a loss for what to do about Zheng Xin.

This girl still believed that her so-called protagonist’s aura would work and save her from the jail time.

But what she didn’t know was that the crimes she had committed were enough to warrant the death penalty.

Chief Zheng was also in the predicament of being investigated because of her. If the matter was not resolved, he would not have to wear his police uniform anymore.

Madam Zheng sat at home and cried all day. Lu Xiang and Shen Xian had known her for many years, so she could not be blamed for the child. Therefore, they went to her house almost every day, afraid she would do something stupid.

Zheng Xin had singlehandedly caused chaos in the originally happy family.

s.h.i.+ Man sat quietly in the office and listened to the results of Meng Hui’s investigation. There was no expression on her face.

Meng Hui couldn’t tell what she was thinking. She probed, “Boss, what if Zheng Xin refuses to spit it out?”

s.h.i.+ Man shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “Then let her die.”

Perhaps she could return to her original world.

At this point, no one could give her a way out if she was still stupid enough to not reveal the mastermind.

It was not s.h.i.+ Man’s turn to worry about Zheng Xin. After all, Chief Zheng and Madam Zheng were even more anxious than her.

She looked at the doc.u.ments piled up on the table and picked up one to read expressionlessly. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked in surprise, “Is there nothing important to consult in my brother’s entertainment company recently?”

s.h.i.+ He did not have the experience of running a company. Many big matters like cooperation would be routed to s.h.i.+ Man for consultation first. However, s.h.i.+ Man suddenly remembered that she had not received her brother’s call for help for a long time.

Meng Hui rolled her eyes. It was obvious that she knew something. She probed, “Perhaps Third Young Master’s company has a… partner who can give him advice?”

“Huh? Partner?” s.h.i.+ Man frowned in confusion.

s.h.i.+ He’s company was completely funded by him. Where did this partner come from?

Meng Hui coughed dryly and said, “Actually, this happened just two days ago. I wanted to tell you, but you were too busy during that period of time and I couldn’t see you in the company.”

“Oh.” s.h.i.+ Man had indeed not come to the company much recently. She had been busy with Immaculate, so she naturally did not blame her for not reporting in time.

She put down the doc.u.ment and asked with interest, “So, who’s the partner?”

“It’s Miss Lin, Lin Yue.” Meng Hui took a deep breath and simply said what she wanted to say in one breath. “Third Young Master voluntarily transferred a portion of his shares to Miss Lin. Now, the two of them are the leaders of the company in name.”

s.h.i.+ Man frowned and said unhappily, “Is this my brother’s idea? Or is someone instigating it?”

Meng Hui understood what she meant and hurriedly said, “It’s Third Young Master’s own intention.”

s.h.i.+ Man shook her head helplessly and stood up. “Get the chauffeur to prepare the car. 1 want to go to my brother’s company. I want to see how the two of them are working together now.”

When s.h.i.+ Man arrived at He Man Entertainment, the young lady at the front desk stopped her because she had never seen her before and insisted that she show her appointment with CEO Lin in advance.

s.h.i.+ Man couldn’t be bothered with her. She turned around and sat on the sofa on the first floor. She crossed her legs expressionlessly and said, “Get CEO s.h.i.+ to come out and see me.”

The young lady saw that she had an extraordinary aura and felt a little nervous. She called Lin Yue’s secretary for her opinion.

s.h.i.+ Man sat there quietly and listened to them call for CEO Lin. She frowned deeply.

Why did it seem like this place had changed owners after not minding it for a few days?

What was s.h.i.+ He doing?

After a while, the door of the President’s private elevator opened with a ding. The secretary, Wan Na, walked over gracefully in her stilettos.

The young lady at the front desk hurriedly came out to welcome her. She looked in s.h.i.+ Man’s direction and said, “Sister Wan, she doesn’t have an appointment. Do we let her go up?”

Wan Na glanced at her gently and quickly turned to s.h.i.+ Man. However, she raised her hand and slapped the little girl beside her.

The young lady at the front desk turned her head away from her slap. Everyone in the first-floor hall was so frightened by the sound of this slap that they immediately held their breaths.

Wan Na walked to s.h.i.+ Man’s side with a smile and said respectfully, “Miss s.h.i.+, I’m really sorry. She’s new and doesn’t know the rules. In the future, you can just go upstairs. After all, you contributed to He Man’s success today.”

s.h.i.+ Man looked up slightly with a cold smile. “I’m here to see my brother.”

Wan Na smiled apologetically and said, “What a coincidence. CEO s.h.i.+ isn’t here now, but you can follow me to the office upstairs to wait. CEO Lin really wants to see you.”

s.h.i.+ Man sat still and the smile on her lips disappeared.

Wan Na turned slightly to the side and gestured for her to go ahead. She leaned forward slightly with a standard polite fake smile on her face.

s.h.i.+ Man slowly drank her tea until Wan Na’s waist couldn’t support this action and her body swayed unsteadily. Then, she slowly put down the teacup and said, “Then let’s go..”
