Chapter 451: Chapter 451: You Are Already Wasted
Ren Yongshi looked at the tightly wrapped woman in front of her and angrily slapped her.
“You said that as long as I go after Nan Qiao, you would help me rescue Zhengyang.”
The woman pushed Ren Yongshi away, causing her to fall to the ground.
“You also said that I asked you to go after Nan Qiao. Did you accomplish that? Nan Qiao is unharmed.”
The woman kicked Ren Yongshi in anger: “I asked you to take care of things, look at the mess you’ve made! Nan Qiao is unharmed, and you’ve landed yourself in this situation.”
Ren Yongshi lay on the ground, overcome with grief.
She didn’t know how she ended up like this, facing such a fate.
“Ren Yongshi, you’re already finished.”
The mysterious woman left after speaking.
Ren Yongshi sat on the ground, her gaze was vacant and unmoving.
…
At this moment, Nan Qiao arrived at the club.
She walked in, and Hou Ze was there to meet her.
Nan Qiao entered his suite, and Hou Ze whispered, “Ren Yongshi indeed came to this club. I saw a tightly wrapped woman go inside. After waiting for a long time, I didn’t see her come out, no idea what they were discussing.”
Nan Qiao sat down, listening to the sounds inside through the micro eavesdropping device Hou Ze had placed on the door.
“Why can’t I hear anything,” Nan Qiao said, removing the headphones.
“That’s impossible.” Hou Ze took the headphones, put them on, and indeed heard nothing.
“I’ll go take a look,” Hou Ze volunteered.
Ren Yongshi seeing Nan Qiao would certainly be extremely agitated.
Since Hou Ze was a stranger, he was the more suitable one to go.
Hou Ze directly opened the suite door, and Nan Qiao could see the situation in Ren Yongshi’s suite through her phone.
Taking one look, Nan Qiao was startled.
Inside was only Ren Yongshi, not only that, Ren Yongshi had cursed Hou Ze fiercely.
Hou Ze fled in fear, Ren Yongshi didn’t catch up and left alone in disappointment.
Nan Qiao seized the opportunity to enter the suite. She wanted to figure out why, after entering two people, only one person left.
At this time, Hou Ze turned a corner and came back inside.
“Boss, could it be that person flew away with wings?”
How could a normal human leave without being noticed?
The more Hou Ze thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He looked around and began searching for mechanisms.
While Hou Ze was still searching, Nan Qiao grabbed his arm.
“Let’s go!”
Although Hou Ze didn’t understand why they had to leave, his feet already followed Nan Qiao without his command.
Nan Qiao got into Hou Ze’s car, and only then did Hou Ze have a chance to catch his breath.
“Boss, what’s going on? Why did we withdraw?”
“I suspect this was a trap set for us by that person. Even if the club has mechanisms, we won’t find her.”
“Since it’s a trap, while we’re searching for her, she must be secretly watching us.”
Hou Ze suddenly realized, shivering all over.
Had he and Nan Qiao entered that secret room only to be counter-surveilled?
Nan Qiao said, “These are my assumptions, as for the specifics, you’ll need to investigate.”
“Boss, I’ll go investigate right away.”
Nan Qiao opened the car door, “You don’t need to drive me, hurry and investigate, I’ll still ride the yellow bike.”
Hou Ze didn’t persuade Nan Qiao and drove away.
Nan Qiao walked towards the yellow bike, ready to scan a code, but suddenly saw a familiar figure.
“Cancan?”
Lv Cancan glanced at Nan Qiao and was equally surprised upon spotting her.
“Qiaoqiao, what a coincidence.” Lv Cancan walked over to Nan Qiao.
“This place is quite secluded, Cancan, what brings you here?”
“When I don’t have classes, I come here for a part-time job to earn living expenses.”
“Cancan, you’re really diligent.”
Lv Cancan chuckled, “There’s no other way but to make money. Qiaoqiao, why are you here too?”
“Heard there’s a nice restaurant here, came to try it with a friend.”
Lv Cancan knew Nan Qiao’s family background was quite affluent and she loved searching for good food.
The two chatted for a bit before riding away separately.
…
Nan Qiao returned to the fashion company, where Rong Yan mentioned that the company was organizing a fashion show. Models would wear the clothes they designed to allow the audience to appreciate the beauty of the garments more directly.
Having heard Nan Qiao was coming, Rong Yan, along with Fu Xingyao, came to the entrance to greet her.
They stood on either side like guardian deities.
Nan Qiao got out of the car and seeing their smiling faces, smiled along with them.
“The company isn’t busy anymore that you both made a point to come here and wait for me?”
Fu Xingyao: “Even when the company is busy, it can’t stop us from coming to greet you.”
Rong Yan: “Mr. Qiao, Fu Secretary and I eagerly hope for your visit to the company every day, to lead us as you did before.”
Nan Qiao followed them into the company, amused by their antics.
The three walked into the company together, arriving at Nan Qiao’s office.
Despite Rong Yan’s promotion, he didn’t work in Nan Qiao’s office.
Rong Yan went to the office next door, Nan Qiao’s office remained to provide her a place to work every day when she returned.
Rong Yan and Secretary Fu were diligent about cleaning Nan Qiao’s office daily.
Nan Qiao entered to find her desk spotless, clearly well-maintained.
“You don’t need to keep my office, let it be used by someone fitting.”
Rong Yan: “Mr. Qiao, you are the most suitable person.”
Secretary Fu: “There’s no one like you.”
Nan Qiao was amused, feeling like she was part of a comedy.
“You two are getting better at coordinating, seamless cooperation.”
Rong Yan: “Fu Secretary and I indeed have great synergy, especially when negotiating partnerships. Mr. Qiao, we’re like your right-hand men.”
Nan Qiao: “…”
“Rong Yan, do you have a girlfriend?”
Rong Yan: “…”
The question rendered him silent.
Secretary Fu laughed, glancing sidelong at Rong Yan.
“Mr. Qiao, here’s the plan we devised, take a look.”
Nan Qiao accepted the proposal document and studied it carefully.
Rong Yan poured coffee for Nan Qiao, while Secretary Fu brought out prepared pastries and fruits.
Having finished reading the proposal, Nan Qiao said to them, “For the guest of honor, I’m inviting Bai Yan over.”
Secretary Fu and Rong Yan were flabbergasted, staring incredulously at Nan Qiao.
Rong Yan excitedly asked, “Can we really invite this top-tier celebrity? If he can come, that would be fantastic! Really amazing! Our fashion show will undoubtedly be a hit on trending searches!”
Secretary Fu: “If Mr. Qiao says we can invite him, then we’re certain he will come.”
Nan Qiao sent a message and quickly received a reply.
Nan Qiao stated, “You all prepare well, he’ll surely come.”
“Mr. Qiao, I’ll notify the planning department in a bit.”
Nan Qiao responded with an “hmm,” gave a few more instructions, then left the fashion company.
Nan Qiao bought some afternoon tea and arrived at the film set.
Brother Fei personally came to fetch Nan Qiao, helping her with the afternoon tea and taking her into Bai Jingrui’s rest area.
Meanwhile, two paparazzi were continuously snapping photos with their cameras.
“We’re going to strike it rich! Brother Fei personally coming over, this girl must be someone very important to Bai Jingrui.”
“Take more shots, our front-page headline is coming.”
