Chapter 17: Dajinshan, where are you running to!
"Brother, let me tell you, this is simply amazing!"
Pu Xi's voice was shaking with excitement: "You still remember that little star, right? She's actually a great immortal!"
Pu Yao was having dinner with his partners outside at the moment. Pu Xi was shouting so loudly that everyone at the table looked at him.
Pu Yao: “…”
Pu Yao was silent, looked at everyone apologetically, gestured to indicate that he was going to answer the phone, and then walked out of the private room.
Along the way, he listened to his younger brother blabbering about how amazing the little star named Bai Qiuwu was.
What if making a wish to her would really come true? She also cited a lot of examples, including but not limited to Wu Li’s house collapse and the incident at Zhian Entertainment Company.
In short, his words were incoherent and messy, which made people doubt his mental state.
Pu Yao was silent for a long time, until Pu Xi finally said she was tired. Then he suddenly spoke: "Have you been very tired recently? Or stressed?"
Pu Xi was a little puzzled, but still answered: "No."
Why should he be tired? He has nothing to do.
Pu Yao didn't ask any more questions, but changed the subject: "Have you had your physical examination this year?"
Pu Xi was even more puzzled: "No, isn't there still more than a month left?"
Pu Yao: "Go do it tomorrow. I'll have Tan Yu give you a brain scan."
Pu Xi: “?”
If Pu Xi still didn't realize what his brother meant, he would be a fool. He couldn't help but get anxious: "Brother! What do you mean? There's nothing wrong with my brain!"
"Bai Qiuwu is really powerful! If you don't believe me, just make a wish and you'll know. She really is a deity. Believe me!"
I don’t know if that little star is effective, but Pu Xi really sounded like he was brainwashed by some organization.
Pu Yao knew that some children were rebellious and would not listen the more he talked to them, so he carefully replied, "Then observe for now. Tell me if anything happens."
Pu Xi was extremely excited: "Okay! I knew you believed in me!"
After perfunctorily coaxing the child a few words and hanging up the phone, Pu Yao directly called his secretary Tan Yu who was waiting outside.
"Limit the limits on all cards under Pu Xi's name. I suspect he's been scammed. Then we'll investigate that little celebrity named Bai. Let's do it now."
Tan Yu was confused: "Ah? Oh oh!"
…
At the same time, Bai Qiuwu was completely unaware of the turmoil on the Internet. She was sitting in a luxurious private room negotiating with Cui Fei.
She finally chose to come out and meet Cui Fei. There was no special reason, mainly because she gave too much.
It's funny that the original owner had so much salary withheld that she couldn't get a single cent back, but now the company is rushing to give her money.
Compared to his previous arrogance, Cui Fei now looked much more haggard and thinner, with his facial features becoming sharper.
"Let me ask you a question first. Does the company's recent events have anything to do with you?"
Cui Fei's tone was very gloomy. Bai Qiuwu seemed unaware of her ill intentions and answered sincerely, "Maybe there is some connection."
Cui Fei, who had never expected the other party to admit it so readily, asked: "?"
Bai Qiuwu confessed very consciously: "People have made wishes to me, hoping that the company would go bankrupt soon, and I have agreed to them."
Cui Fei, who was about to lose his temper: "..."
Cui Fei's breath was stuck in his chest, neither rising nor falling. After a long while, he finally uttered a sentence: "Besides this, is there anything else?"
“No more.”
Bai Qiuwu spoke the truth and was very serious. In short, there was no sign of lying.
Cui Fei almost suffocated to death from his own anger.
She felt that Bai Qiuwu must have been hit hard. Although he wasn't very smart before, at least he wasn't so crazy.
But who made her still need her?
Taking a deep breath, Cui Fei took out a check from his bag and handed it directly to Bai Qiuwu.
"The company hopes you won't pursue the matter. This is 500,000 yuan, including your salary. The rest is compensation."
God knew the higher-ups would suddenly come down to inspect. There have been problems with their contract for a while now, and no one has reported it over the years.
Now with so many people around, the company can’t hold on any longer.
Among the unpaid wages found, Bai Qiuwu was one of the biggest ones. In addition, her popularity was too high now. If she really wanted to make a fuss, it would not be enough to just give her a few hundred thousand.
This is why Cui Fei paid money to keep people quiet.
Bai Qiuwu was very satisfied with the compensation, and she readily agreed not to pursue the matter.
Anyway, the company's wish to go bankrupt will come true. Even if she doesn't pursue it, there will be people who will. She can just take the money and wait for the result. There is no need to get involved in this mess.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Cui Fei's eyes. As expected, no matter how Bai Qiuwu changed, his cowardly character could never be changed.
Since the matter had been resolved, she had no interest in staying any longer. She said a few perfunctory words and turned away.
Bai Qiuwu didn't stop her. After all, this gold medal agent would probably be unemployed soon. He was involved in too many things and might even get free jail time. She wouldn't interfere with his last free time.
She carefully enjoyed the food on the table that had hardly been touched.
This restaurant is very high-end. If Cui Fei hadn't invited him here, Bai Qiuwu wouldn't have known that such a place existed.
The food was delicious, and even the drinks were sour and sweet, making Bai Qiuwu almost suspect that he had misheard when he ordered, and that this was not actually wine.
It was not until she finished her meal, paid the bill and left, and was blown by the hot wind and felt dizzy, that she finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
Bai Qiuwu liked to drink a lot in heaven, but she had a good alcohol tolerance and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She had never experienced the feeling of being drunk in all these years.
But the original owner's body doesn't seem to be able to drink alcohol...
So, when Pu Yao finished his meal and walked out of the restaurant, waiting for the driver to pick him up, he saw the very obvious and conspicuous bag on the side of the road at a glance.
The woman's hair was messed up by the wind, her pretty little face was red, and her gorgeous and charming peach blossom eyes were full of hazy drunkenness.
She squatted on the side of the road, lowered her head and looked at something seriously, muttering to herself all the time.
Pu Yao originally wanted to pretend not to see it, but the little star seemed to have noticed something. She suddenly looked up at him, her beautiful eyes narrowed, and her gaze was not concealed at all.
Pu Yao looked at her expressionlessly with his head down, wondering coldly in his heart what tricks this swindler was playing.
Then the next moment he heard a woman's vague voice, with obvious dissatisfaction.
"Hey so-and-so, could you please move away a little? You're blinking so brightly that it's bothering me."
Pu Yao: “…”
Pu Yao looked up at the dark sky, the slightly dim environment around him, and his black formal suit that was completely dull, and remained silent.
He thought calmly, what's the point of arguing with a drunkard, so he took two steps to the side in a good-tempered manner, preparing to go directly to the underground garage.
But before he had taken a few steps, he heard the woman behind him suddenly exclaim, "Ah!" and said loudly, "I remember now. You are my great gold mountain!"
As she spoke, she jumped up, grabbed his arm, and stuck to him like a koala: "I caught you, let's see how you run this time!"
The tone was so righteous and confident.
Pu Yao: “…”
It's an unexpected disaster, there's nothing to say.
