Liu Xiaoyuan picked up a bottle of wine from the room and splashed it directly on Song Fei's face. Song Fei slowly opened his eyes.
Upon opening his eyes, Song Fei glanced around, then slowly moved his body. When he looked up and saw Liu Xiaoyuan standing in front of him, Song Fei went completely mad.
"I'm going to kill you..." As soon as Song Fei regained his senses, he immediately went berserk, shouting wildly.
Given Song Fei's condition, it was impossible to get anything out of him, so Liu Xiaoyuan immediately tapped Song Fei on the body.
At this moment, Song Fei felt as if thousands of ants were crawling all over his body, and the itchy sensation made him want to peel off a layer of skin with his fingernails.
"What...what did you do to me?" Song Fei asked loudly, scratching his skin with his hands.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "As long as you answer my questions truthfully, this feeling will disappear immediately; otherwise, I will make you suffer this feeling of being worse than dead forever."
This feeling was like torture. Song Fei couldn't bear it. He scratched his skin until it bled, but he still wanted to scratch that spot.
"I'm willing to answer, I'm willing to answer!" Song Fei surrendered immediately, begging Liu Xiaoyuan to get rid of the unbearable itching sensation on his body.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately touched Song Fei's body, and Song Fei immediately felt the unbearable itching sensation disappear.
Song Fei was panting heavily, sweat pouring down his face, and he looked completely exhausted.
“Wang Jianjun just said you know something about the behind-the-scenes boss of Huangcheng Media Group. Tell me about it,” Liu Xiaoyuan said.
To be honest, Liu Xiaoyuan already knew from Wang Jianjun's words that the behind-the-scenes boss was very mysterious, and Song Fei probably didn't know much useful information either.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan did not have high hopes for Song Fei.
The torture he had just endured had soaked Song Fei's entire body, with beads of sweat dripping from his forehead and his face as pale as paper, as if he were about to meet the King of Hell at any moment.
After catching his breath, Song Fei said, "I don't actually know much about the behind-the-scenes boss of Huangcheng Media Group."
“Tell me what you know, but if you dare to lie, you know what I'm capable of. I'll make you wish you were dead,” Liu Xiaoyuan said coldly.
Even without Liu Xiaoyuan saying it, Song Fei wouldn't dare lie. He still vividly remembered the incredibly itchy feeling from earlier, and he certainly didn't want to experience it a second time.
Song Fei swallowed hard, glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan fearfully, and then slowly spoke.
"I only know that this mastermind's surname is Gao, but I don't know his given name. He never shows his true face when I meet him, but I can tell from his voice that he's a middle-aged man. And his martial arts skills are absolutely terrifying; I think he's at least at the third level of the Innate Realm..."
Upon hearing Song Fei's words, Liu Xiaoyuan was shocked. Someone above the third level of the Innate Realm was almost on par with that woman, Su Xue. Although Liu Xiaoyuan didn't know Su Xue's exact realm, he was sure that even ten of him wouldn't be able to defeat her given her abilities.
The fact that the mastermind behind the Imperial City Media Group is actually a highly skilled expert is truly astonishing.
"You're saying the mastermind behind Huangcheng Media is a master at the third level of the Innate Realm or higher?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked again, because the news was too shocking and he had to ask once more.
Song Fei nodded and said, "Yes, Boss Gao's martial arts level is indeed above the third level of the Innate Realm. I can't even last a single move against him."
Liu Xiaoyuan originally planned to meet this Boss Gao, but since he was a master of the third level of the Innate Realm, Liu Xiaoyuan felt it was better to avoid him first, since acting rashly would only bring trouble upon himself.
"Tell me everything else you know!" Liu Xiaoyuan urged.
Song Fei shook his head and said, "No, I really don't know anything else."
Holy crap! It seems the boss behind Huangcheng Media is indeed a mysterious person. Even a master like Song Fei, who is at the first level of the Innate Realm, knows very little about him.
Since he couldn't get any useful clues, Liu Xiaoyuan saw no point in staying any longer and left.
After seeing Liu Xiaoyuan leave, Wang Jianjun and Song Fei both breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Jianjun, in particular, simply lay down on the ground, panting heavily.
When Liu Xiaoyuan was there, Wang Jianjun was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
"Wang Jianjun, what the hell are you standing there for? Call me an ambulance right now!" Song Fei cursed.
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianjun immediately took out his phone from his pocket and called an ambulance.
On the way back, Liu Xiaoyuan kept thinking about the behind-the-scenes boss of Huangcheng Media.
Although no useful clues were obtained from Wang Jianjun and Song Fei, one thing was certain: this Boss Gao was very mysterious and did not want anyone to know his information.
This approach actually has its advantages, making those below him even more fearful of him.
Back at the hotel, Liu Xiaoyuan lay in bed unable to sleep, his mind still preoccupied with the matter of Boss Gao, the behind-the-scenes boss of Huangcheng Media. Why was this man so mysterious, and why was he so concerned about Murong Yuyan? What was going on behind the scenes?
After thinking it over and over, Liu Xiaoyuan still couldn't figure out what was going on, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
As for contacting Murong Yuyan, Liu Xiaoyuan felt that he should still make contact, regardless of the background of the boss of Huangcheng Media. It was none of his business to interfere in his private affairs.
The next day, after breakfast, Liu Xiaoyuan suddenly received a call from Tang Xuan. Only then did Liu Xiaoyuan realize that he hadn't visited his old classmate Tang Xuan since he came to Beijing.
"Hello, Tang Xuan, what's up?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked directly after answering the phone.
Tang Xuan said, "Xiao Yuan, I'm going back to my hometown with my mom in a few days!"
Tang Xuan's hometown is naturally Tongyang County, because Tang Xuan's mother is from there, and Tang Xuan grew up there. That is Tang Xuan's true hometown.
"Really? When are you and your aunt planning to go back?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked happily.
Hearing that Tang Xuan was going back to her hometown, Liu Xiaoyuan felt a surge of joy. Back in school, Liu Xiaoyuan had a crush on Tang Xuan, but he hadn't had the courage to confess.
Tang Xuan said, "It should be in the next few days."
"Tang Xuan, I'm in Beijing now. How about we go back together sometime?" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
"Really? You're in the capital right now?" Tang Xuan asked in a surprised tone.
"Yes, I came to Beijing the day before yesterday. I have some things to take care of," Liu Xiaoyuan explained. "Are you free this morning? If you are, I'll come find you!"
"I'm free, I'll be waiting for you at the Tang family home!" Tang Xuan said.
