While Xie Chen was competing, the grand anniversary banquet also began.
Upon learning that Fu Bai had received an invitation to the banquet, Xie Ru invited Fu Bai to attend with her.
Fu Bai readily agreed.
The banquet was held in the banquet hall on the top floor of the Fanyun Hotel, the largest hotel in Beijing. Because celebrities and artists were also present, Shengshi prepared a red carpet and even broadcast it live.
However, Fu Bai didn't need to walk the red carpet. He, Xie Ru, and Chen Shengqi arrived at the Fanyun Hotel half an hour early and were resting in the suite prepared for them by the hotel.
A dozen minutes before the banquet started, Shu Changchang called Fu Bai.
Shu Changchang's excited voice came through the microphone to Fu Bai's ears.
"Fu Bai, have you arrived? Should I send someone down to fetch you?"
Fu Bai: "I've arrived, no need to trouble you."
“Okay, I’ll come find you later and introduce you to a few people,” Shu Changchang said mysteriously.
Fu Bai roughly guessed who Shu Changchang was going to take him to see, and said with a smile, "Your girlfriends, right?"
Shu Changchang was taken aback: "You guessed it?"
Fu Bai joked, "Your willpower is really strong that you waited until today to wear your evening gown out to show them."
While joking with Shu Changchang, he also displayed confidence in the evening gown he designed.
If Shu Changchang hadn't been able to resist showing off in her evening gown to her girlfriends a few days earlier, Fu Bai would probably have received the order from Shu Changchang's girlfriends a few days earlier.
It's definitely something Shu Changchang was keeping secret, deciding to give her girlfriends a shock today.
Shu Changchang's laughter came through the phone: "Haha, Fu Baibai, you're so confident!"
Fu Bai: "Just tell me if I'm right or not."
Shu Changchang: "You're right. They're all pestering me to introduce you to them right now. So when do you have time to come to my lounge?"
"Room number," Fu Bai said directly.
Shu Changchang: "1408, hurry up and come up, a lot of people are waiting for you."
After ending the call with Shu Changchang, Fu Bai told Xie Ru and then headed to room 1408.
As he approached the elevator, Fu Bai naturally stopped in his tracks.
The smooth, bright elevator doors reflected the scene behind me, and I could clearly see someone following me, slowly walking towards my location.
748: [This person has been following you for many days.]
Fu Bai: "I know, isn't he already itching to act?"
From the very first day he was being followed, Fu Bai keenly sensed the other party's presence.
However, since the stalker hadn't made any move, Fu Bai ignored him for the time being, wanting to see what the other party was up to.
Now, four or five days have passed, and the other party has finally lost patience.
The elevator arrived at the floor where Fu Bai was located.
With a "ding," the elevator doors slowly opened to both sides.
Fu Bai glanced behind him nonchalantly and stepped into the elevator.
The man quickened his pace and caught up in a few steps.
He was wearing a mask, so you couldn't tell what he looked like.
The elevator was spacious, but after entering it, he didn't stand in the open space; instead, he squeezed next to Fu Bai.
Fu Bai didn't move, but soon felt something pressing against his lower back.
748: [Watch out, Fu Baibai! It's a gun!]
"Don't move or make a sound, our boss wants to see you."
The other person's voice was hoarse and even somewhat distorted, which must have been processed with a voice changer.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Fu Bai asked, trembling, a look of fear creeping onto his delicate face, as if he were truly afraid of the gun in that person's hand.
The man pressed the gun against Fu Bai's waist again and said in a gruff voice, "Don't ask any questions, just come with me."
He threatened Fu Bai while reaching for the elevator floor button.
Trying to do two things at once inevitably leads to distraction.
Taking advantage of the moment when the person pressed the elevator button, Fu Bai suddenly grabbed the person's wrist with a backhand.
Then, Fu Bai moved even faster. Before the man could react, Fu Bai snatched the pistol from his hand.
Fu Bai weighed the pistol in his hand and looked at the pursuers with a sneer: "How much do you underestimate me? Why did you send you to kidnap me?"
The stalkers were caught off guard by Fu Bai's skill and didn't have time to react.
When he realized that Fu Bai had taken his pistol, a look of astonishment appeared on his face, only to be mocked by Fu Bai in return.
Anger instantly replaced reason; the stalker pulled out a dagger and lunged at Fu Bai.
With a nimble flip, Fu Bai grabbed the stalker's wrist again and delivered a clean and decisive over-the-shoulder throw.
At the same time, the elevator car doors opened, and Fu Bai threw the stalker out of the elevator.
The stalker tried to get up, but the dark gun barrel was already pressed against his forehead.
The one with the gun wasn't Fu Bai, but a policeman in plainclothes.
"Don't move, you're under arrest."
The stalker's mask was ripped off, revealing a rugged face.
If Chen Lan were here, she would immediately recognize who he is.
It was Zhou Kangsheng.
Zhou Kangsheng: "..."
How did the police arrive so quickly?
After being pulled up from the ground by the police with his hands restrained, Zhou Kangsheng understood the reason and looked at Fu Bai in disbelief.
As Fu Bai was handing the pistol to the police, he noticed Zhou Kangsheng's gaze and turned to smile at him.
Fu Bai, in a fit of kindness, explained: "This tactic is called 'luring the snake out of its hole.' I advise you to cooperate with the police investigation."
Zhou Kangsheng murmured a few times, but ultimately couldn't get any questions out.
