The South City's richest Zhong family had doted on their beloved daughter for seventeen years, only to find they had doted on the wrong person!
Word had it that the true daughter, Kong Xi...
Chapter 564: Cunning Master
"Today's Sister Lin looks pretty and gentle. She should be someone I can rely on, right?" Zhong Yangyang was still chatting with Kong Xiyan and Kong Zhishan in the car. "I think she seems to be quite caring towards Wu Yan."
"Who knows." Kong Xiyan looked out the window.
The Master has not shown up until now. Now, apart from knowing that the Master has come to China, she has no other news. It is as if this person has evaporated, and even Xu Junzhi cannot find him.
There was no news from Gao Qianqian either.
Really... cunning.
Kong Xiyan always felt that the Master was secretly preparing to make some big move, but she didn't know what exactly he was going to do.
Her hands clenched into fists, her brows furrowed slightly.
Unfortunately, she couldn't figure out anything related to the Master, otherwise there wouldn't be any need to go through so much trouble.
On the other side, Kong Zhishan handed the phone to Kong Xiyan: "I searched for that Sister Lin, she's not an ordinary person."
Kong Xiyan took the phone and glanced at it, unable to help but smack her lips. "With so many awards, I'm afraid those trophies would be three stories high if they were piled up. Who wants to be Wu Yan's agent?"
It's a bit of a waste of talent...
"This Sister Lin's current employer is Dreamer.Y, a multinational jewelry company."
Zhong Yangyang was a little surprised: "It's that..."
She remembered that her second brother had specially brought her a Dreamer.Y brooch from abroad. The price had more than doubled in two years, and it was a commemorative style with special meaning.
Zhong Yangyang remembered that she had seen a Dreamer.Y gemstone necklace online. It was bought by a princess of a certain country. She offered a price thirty times higher than the market price to buy the complete set of earrings and hair accessories, but ultimately failed to do so.
This appreciation rate is definitely the best in the luxury industry.
"Yes, it's the world's leading natural gemstone design company, with dozens of gemstone mines and a portfolio covering multiple industries including jewelry, private service, and art. The company Wu Yan signed with is also backed by Dreamer.Y, so it should be considered a cross-field collaboration." Kong Zhishan nodded: "I remember that the boss of Dreamer.Y is a woman, but she rarely attends social events in her personal capacity.
Last time my sister had her birthday, she seemed to come, but she didn’t ask her any questions. I wonder if my sister still remembers it.”
"Well...if we meet, I might have an impression of him." Kong Xiyan narrowed her eyes. At that time, she was so busy guarding against Meng Xi towards that old dog that she indeed neglected to protect the guests.
"If sister wants to know her information, I can ask mom and dad." Kong Zhishan looked at Kong Xiyan.
The Kong family head and his wife would definitely know about this, after all, the original list was finalized by them personally.
"Not for now." Kong Xiyan waved her hand: "I have a feeling she will come to me in person."
"Okay." Kong Zhishan nodded. Her sister's premonition had never been wrong.
After returning home, Kong Xiyan handed the portable lunch box to Luo Zhenxuan who had just returned from get off work: "Hey~ Luo Laosan, the office animal, have you eaten?"
"Not yet." Luo Zhenxuan took the lunch box handed to him by Kong Xiyan: "It smells so good."
"Wu Yan's product is absolutely exquisite. Eat it with gratitude. She cooked it for you right away. We didn't even get to eat the stir-fried beef!" Kong Xiyan patted Luo Zhenxuan's shoulder.
"Well, please send her a message later to tell her that I finished the meal with gratitude." Luo Zhenxuan was really touched and quite hungry, so he sat there and started eating.
"Why do you look so tired?" Kong Xiyan sat opposite Luo Zhenxuan, holding her chin with one hand: "Is it because of the Luo family?"
"I don't know where he got the investment from, but it's a pretty big amount." Luo Zhenxuan frowned. "Although it didn't have much impact on the outcome, his behavior is still quite annoying. He must have been a little desperate, so he cut off his own arm and ruined several Luo's projects. This has a very bad impact on the future of Luo's. I always feel like he wants to drag everything down with him."
Although Luo Zhenxuan thought that Luo Qingchen's resistance was stupid, the Luo family was his obsession after all. Seeing Luo Qingchen messing around like this, he felt uncomfortable.
"How about we work with Luo Zhenya?" Kong Xiyan touched her chin. "She's been wanting to see me lately."
"No, it would be even more troublesome if that lunatic got involved." Luo Zhenxuan shook his head: "I can handle it."
He had been able to handle projects that were a hundred times more difficult than Luo's before, let alone Luo's.
It's just that he didn't want to let his grandfather's life's work go to waste, so he didn't dare to kill him.
Besides, he wanted to give Luo Shi to Kong Xiyan, and he didn't want Luo Qingchen to be buried with her.
That scumbag dad doesn't deserve it.
"Okay then, feel free to come to me if you need anything." Kong Xiyan raised her hand, patted Luo Zhenxuan's shoulder, and lightly pounded her chest twice: "You don't need to be so stubborn, your strength lies here!"
"Thank you." Luo Zhenxuan's mouth twitched: "The rice in my mouth suddenly feels a bit greasy."
"Tsk, you don't understand my domineering attitude at all." Kong Xiyan smiled and waved her hand, then turned to leave. When she reached the stairs, she looked at Luo Zhenxuan and asked, "Have you found out who invested in Luo Qingchen?"
"I didn't find the person, but I did find the public-to-public account that transferred the money."
"Which company?"
"Dreamer.Y."
"..." Kong Xiyan narrowed her eyes slightly. Could that company... really be related to Master?
"What's wrong?" Luo Zhenxuan looked at her.
"It's nothing, actually." Kong Xiyan returned to Luo Zhenxuan's side: "The company that signed Wu Yan is backed by Dreamer.Y."
Luo Zhenxuan frowned, obviously thinking the same thing as Kong Xiyan.
Otherwise... this would be too much of a coincidence.
"I had a fortune-teller tell me that Wu Yan has a benefactor helping her." Kong Xiyan leaned against the table. "It would be bad if this benefactor is the Master."
"Yeah." Luo Zhenxuan nodded. He couldn't let Wu Yan become the victim of this game.
"I have a feeling that the person behind Wu Yan will come to me." Kong Xiyan said, "It won't be long."
"You mean..." Luo Zhenxuan swallowed the food in his mouth: "We kidnap Wu Yan and lure him into the trap?"
Kong Xiyan looked at Luo Zhenxuan's half-eaten meal with a complicated look: "Wu Yan even prepared a meal for you, aren't you repaying her kindness with enmity?"
"Let's kidnap her, and then let Mo Ya play games with her. She won't be allowed to leave until she completes the game." Luo Zhenxuan glanced in the direction of the stairs and raised his eyebrows at Kong Xiyan.
"That's a bit cruel, isn't it..." Kong Xiyan glanced towards the stairs: "Mo Ya is notoriously bad at playing games!"
"Then give her three times the salary for playing with her?"
"To accompany Mo Ya, it must be at least five times!"
"Hey! That's too much!" Mo Ya, who was hiding at the stairs and eavesdropping, couldn't stand it anymore: "How can this Saint be so weak? This is too much! Humph!"
She stamped her feet and went upstairs angrily.
Kong Xiyan and Luo Zhenxuan then smiled at each other.
"I'll pay attention to Wu Yan, and you should also work hard." Kong Xiyan patted Luo Zhenxuan's shoulder and then walked upstairs.
At the same time, Wu Mengying, who was processing work documents, received a message from her assistant.
"Madam, the Master knows you've returned and wants to meet you."
"Tsk." Wu Mengying said without even looking up: "Let him die far away."
"yes……"
