The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise - Chapter 434

Chapter 434: Something Is Terribly Wrong With Your Brain

Ma Mingquan kept a straight face and replied sternly, “Let go of your hand!”

Song Fang cupped the paper in his hand tightly as he replied, “Never! Every single stroke that formed the words on this paper was made by me with a 50-cent black pen. Each and every word represents my love and care for Sister Zhi! You must not take it away from me!”

Ma Mingquan replied, “You’re affecting other students by passing a slip of paper in class!”

Song Fang kicked Fu Zhi’s chair and said anxiously, “Sister Zhi, say something!”

Fu Zhi pressed her lips. “Why can’t you guys communicate with each other through QQ? Why must you pass a piece of paper around? Besides, just like you s*ck at passing ball, you also s*ck at passing paper and you’ve indeed disturbed my rest.”

Song Fang looked at Fu Zhi, his eyes filled with disbelief. It was only now that he realized he had been too naive. How could he trust a dense, cold-hearted person like Fu Zhi to bare her soul to him?

In the end, Song Fang handed the paper, aka his kid, to Ma Mingquan.

Then, Fu Zhi chimed in, telling Ma Mingquan, “Remember to get a better trash can.”

Ma Mingquan nodded in assent. “Don’t worry. I’m a professional. I’m sure it will go into its rightful place.”

Song Fang was stunned.

‘Hello, police? Can you come over here? There are two lunatics on the run!’

——

The atmosphere in Class 21 remained the same until just before lunchtime.

Song Fang planned for them to have lunch at a hot pot restaurant outside their school. Su Xing came out of the school as well. She had been secretive lately and she had been going to No.2 High School recently.

While they were on their way out of the school, they bumped into Mu Chenxi, who was walking with a group of Hang Yuan students.

It seemed to them that she was acting like a “tour guide” for the students of Hang Yuan. After all, they were not familiar with the surroundings of No.1 High School.

Mu Chenxi paused for a moment when she met Fu Zhi’s eyes. Then, she walked up to Fu Zhi and pulled her aside.

Although she did not like Fu Zhi, she did not hate her as much as Lu Chuwan did. She was just a bit frustrated that Fu Zhi had been able to thwart Ouyang Ya and her plan every single time.

She was certain that Fu Zhi would not be able to turn the tide this time. The news about her and Ye Shiyun had caused turmoil across the internet, and she was confident that Pure Feather would step forward to clear the situation up. Then, she’d make Fu Zhi apologize to her, the Mu Family, and also Lu Chuwan.

Mu Chenxi was not as patient as Ouyang Ya and she always had trouble keeping her cool. They were only at the first stage of their plan, yet she approached Fu Zhi directly, wanting her to admit her mistake and help her get the cooperation with Pure Feather back.

“Fu Zhi, a wise person will adapt to the circumstances. I’m sure you’re well aware of the things happening on the internet. The odds are not in your favor, and this is just the start. Besides, don’t you feel guilty about ruining someone’s business cooperation? I advise you to apologize sincerely to me right now before the matter goes too far. Otherwise, don’t blame me for whatever happens next!”

Fu Zhi did not know what Mu Chenxi was talking about. She was hungry and she wanted to get this over with as soon as possible. She thus asked, “Do you know what happened to Lu Chuwan?”

“I can’t believe you still have the audacity to ask that question.” Mu Chenxi gritted her teeth. “If you had not lured her into your trap, how—”

“That means you still don’t know.” Fu Zhi interjected. At the same time, her phone rang. She pulled her phone out and realized it was a message from the delivery man. Her parcel was going to arrive soon, so she decided to end this conversation as quickly as she could.

“I gave her two chances, yet she didn’t appreciate it. She left me no other choice, so I had to do it,” she said flatly.

Then, she paused for a moment before adding, “I don’t care what is going on with your family, but since you are Lu Chuwan’s best friend, I advise you to learn from her mistakes so that you don’t follow in her footsteps.”

“Fu Zhi, don’t get so cocky!”

‘She’s giving me advice? Who the hell does she think she is?!’

Mu Chenxi flung her sleeve in exasperation as she hissed, “Just you wait, Fu Zhi. I’ll surely…”

Fu Zhi interrupted her again. “Nope! I’m not going to wait for you!”

Mu Chenxi was stumped.

‘Why don’t you want to wait? Why do you have to be so hard on me?!’

Not wanting to give up just yet, Mu Chenxi said, “Then don’t come and cry to me in the future!”

Then, she turned around and left with tears in her eyes.

The crowd looked at her speechlessly.

Lu Yumo commented, “Are all ugly people so dramatic? I don’t understand how she could become an actress with her behavior and appearance.”

“Well…” Su Xing chimed in. “Don’t you think her skin is fair? If you watch closely, you will realize that she is as fair as Fu Zhi. I happened to come across her drama a few days ago. Perhaps it’s because of the special effects, but her skin looked as if it was glowing in front of the camera. Because of this, she’s regarded as a beauty goddess on Weibo and she has successfully gathered quite a lot of fans. However, I have no idea why, but her skin condition has deteriorated lately. It seems to me that she has been taking medicine or she has gone through some kind of treatment.”

However, Su Xing could not be sure of that. At the same time, Lu Yumo suddenly remembered something and whispered to Fu Zhi, “An agent and a celebrity came to our shop and bought the Beauty Pill from us last month, but I’ve not heard from them since.”

“Don’t worry. We can stop selling the Beauty Pill if it’s not selling well. After all, it’s not our main product.”

The private room in the hot pot restaurant was so huge that it could house more than 20 students.

By the time Fu Zhi arrived, the boss had finished preparing everything.

Other than Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu, most of them did not have much of an appetite, especially Lu Yumo. After he consumed six plates of lamb slices, he wiped his mouth with a paper towel and said, “Our mom called me just now and asked me about the things people are saying on Weibo. How are we going to deal with it now?”

On the other side of the city, in a certain luxurious residential area…

Ye Shiyun was browsing through “Red Sun” for the third time. His agent, Xiao Bai, came into the pink villa. He stood in front of the mirror for a moment and after he ascertained that all buttons were buttoned up, he pulled the book out of Ye Shiyun’s hand and said, “Our cooperation with the Mu Family has been terminated. Anyway, I have something else to ask you.”

Leaning against the couch, Ye Shiyun said, “Go ahead.”

He took the book back from Xiao Bai. Then, he took a bottle of disinfectant out of the drawer, sprayed the book, and wiped it with a clean paper towel before putting the book underneath a pillow that Xiao Bai could not reach.

Xiao Bai did not know what to say. He began to wonder if he was a virus or a germ instead of a human.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Bai threw his phone on the table and asked, “Who is the girl in the video? Didn’t I already tell you this? If you’re dating someone, then you have to tell us. Now that you’ve been exposed, we need to figure out a solution as soon as possible. Give me the phone number of the girl in the video. I will talk to her, and the company will help you release a statement.”

From Xiao Bai’s perspective, both Fu Zhi and Ye Shiyun were extremely good-looking. He was thinking of signing Fu Zhi on as an actress for his company, so he could not allow Ye Shiyun to provoke Fu Zhi.

“There’s no need to clarify anything. The netizens have already clarified this for us.”

Xiao Bai asked, “What do you mean?”

Ye Shiyun pointed at the comments section. “Can’t you see it? The netizens are already saying Fu Zhi is Pure Feather.”

Xiao Bai was stumped.

“It seems to me that something is wrong with your brain,” Xiao Bai said worriedly as he shook his head. “Having a girlfriend is a small issue, but lying to your fans is a big no-no. Do you really love this girl that much?”

Ye Shiyun took a sip of his orange juice and nodded. “Yeah.”

“Have you forgotten about your dream? Didn’t you say you were going to make a lot of money so that you could buy a pink villa for your long-lost sister?”

“Yeah, and I already bought it. I will transfer the ownership of this villa to Fu Zhi soon.”

Xiao Bai asked, “What about your sister?”

“Fu Zhi is my sister.”

“Isn’t she your girlfriend?”

Ye Shiyun frowned. “Girlfriend? Who told you that? She’s my biological sister.”
