Almost no one had expected this crisis to come quietly …
The next morning, as soon as I woke up, I heard a hurried knocking on the door.
"Coming."
I was slightly puzzled, so I walked over and opened the door. It was actually Hsieh Shih-chi's manager, Sis Ran. Behind her was a middle-aged man. It was Uncle Wang, who drove the car last night.
"Old Wang, is it this guy?" Sis Ran asked impatiently.
"Yes, last night, he was eating with Xiaoqi!" Uncle Wang nodded.
Hearing this, Sis Ran's face immediately darkened. She looked at me with eyes full of dissatisfaction.
"Young man, if I'm not wrong, you rented this house, right?"
She curled her lips and asked. In the past, Sis Ran had worked hard in the capital for a period of time. Basically, after looking at the situation of the neighborhood, she had an idea.
"En, yeah," I replied.
What surprised Sis Ran was that I openly admitted it. She was even more speechless. She really couldn't understand why Hsieh Shih-chi would hang out with this kind of person. No matter what, she had seen Hsieh Shih-chi's meteoric rise. Sis Ran thought that she understood Hsieh Shih-chi very well. But after last night's big mess, coupled with Hsieh Shih-chi's indifferent attitude, it was like pouring a bucket of cold water on Sis Ran.
As a woman with a mind of her own, Sis Ran didn't continue to aggressively ask questions. Instead, she found the driver, Uncle Wang, and got some useful information from him. Then, she came early in the morning to interrogate him.
"Damn, you're really honest. I'm not afraid to tell you. She has a few villas in the capital, and she's a big boss with a net worth of several billion. Even he was rejected by our Xiaoqi. Why are you so close to her? Is your head rusty?" Sis Ran angrily scolded. Actually, this was the first time I met Sis Ran.
However, the two times I saw her, she was having sex with someone. One time was in the bathroom, and the other time was in the hotel. It was easy to imagine how much this woman liked to exercise. Of course, Sister Ran was still a bit good-looking, especially with her hot body. It was easy for her to whet the appetite of those bosses.
"Ahem, I think you misunderstood. Hsieh Shih-chi and I are just ordinary friends." I cleared my throat and treated her politely.
"Ordinary friends?
Okay, then tell me, what happened at the dinner party last night! "Ran jie stared at me without blinking.
"It's simple. That guy surnamed Fan asked for trouble. In the end, he got beaten up and ran away." I shrugged. There was nothing to hide.
"Ah …" Ran jie's face suddenly turned green. To be honest, she had thought of this possibility, but she felt that it was a bit unrealistic. The Fan family was an upper-middle family in the capital. They had at least a few billion in assets. Moreover, Young Master Fan was a person who cared about his face. If he got beaten up, how could he swallow his anger?
"Who beat Young Master Fan?" Ran jie asked with a face full of expectation. It couldn't have been done by the 'Four Young Masters of the capital', right?
After all, it was common for young people to be jealous of each other. Although Young Master Fan was a famous person, he wasn't worth mentioning in front of the 'Four Young Masters of the capital'.
If one of the 'Four Young Masters of the capital' were to pursue Hsieh Shih-chi, then it would be a great thing. Even if they offended Young Master Fan, it wouldn't be a big deal. A person must know when to give up. The relationship between a man and a woman couldn't tolerate even a grain of sand.
Ran jie was secretly happy. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. It seemed that this was the only explanation. Young Master Fan didn't dare to take revenge, so he could only use Hsieh Shih-chi's new drama. After all, Hsieh Shih-chi was the female lead.
Previously, Ran jie had instilled some ideas into Hsieh Shih-chi's mind. She said that the celebrities in the entertainment circle had a shelf life. She could either start her own company or pay attention to the sons of rich and powerful families. As for Hsieh Shih-chi, she only wanted to focus on her acting career. The former was unlikely. However, Hsieh Shih-chi didn't agree with Ran jie's point of view. She didn't like rich and powerful families. She didn't want to live a life where she lost her sense of self. Ran jie didn't want to be long-winded, so she just tried to persuade her every now and then.
"Hehe, this chick is finally enlightened," Ran jie revealed a proud smile and said to herself.
As long as Hsieh Shih-chi joined a rich and powerful family, she would definitely be able to benefit from it. Don't look at how she often got some kickbacks. In reality, the company earned the most, while Hsieh Shih-chi got second, and she got the least. There were a few times when Ran jie asked the boss for some shares, but she was heartlessly rejected. Moreover, the boss called this time and scolded her to her face. The foreign "duck" didn't really understand Chinese, so she knew that she got scolded, causing Ran jie to lose all face.
But then again, as long as Hsieh Shih-chi got involved with the Four Young Masters of the capital, the boss would have to ask her for help again. Just thinking about it made Ran jie excited.
"I did it," I said lightly.
"Eh …" Ran jie was slightly startled. Her expression became weird, and she shook her head. "Impossible. Young man, what are you bragging about. You are just a renter, how could you have the guts to do that?
Besides, if you really did it, I wouldn't be able to see you right now. "
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Ran jie's logical thinking, but it seemed to make sense. Most of the people living in this old-fashioned residential area came to the capital to make a living. Excluding me, their combined wealth might not even be as much as the Fan family's.
"Is there a need to lie to you?" I was a bit annoyed. In this day and age, no one would believe me even if I told the truth.
"Che, what are you pretending for? I have Young Master Fan's WeChat here. If you continue to pretend, I will immediately make you reveal your true colors!" Ran jie glared at me and said angrily.
"I say, Big Sis, I am telling you the truth, why don't you believe me!" I was also annoyed. Did I really have to take out the video of last night for Ran jie to believe me?
How much did this woman look down on me!
