Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Xinya’s heart sank after meeting Secretary Cao.
She was certain that the matter about the entertainment city was not as simple as it seemed. Had she guessed correctly, the person behind Wen Haowen must have had a plan right from the start and had come prepared.
Even the timing was right.
Firstly, Wen Haowen desperately needed to prove his worth and secure his position in the Wen Corporation so as to salvage his reputation. It would be a piece of cake to manipulate Wen Haowen using the entertainment hub proposal.
Secondly, Old Mr. Wen was too busy with the charity fund to bother about the Wen Corporation’s matters. Since the shareholders were not cooperative at all, it would be easy for him to take advantage without Old Mr. Wen around to control the situation.
Thirdly, the Wen Corporation had reaped a ton of benefits after beating the Xiao Corporation down. The shareholders had all earned a fortune and were now bent on earning more money. Now that someone had initiated a proposal and told them that they would be able to earn more money by investing the funds that they now had, how could they possibly resist the temptation?
Fourthly, she was on a vacation in Russia and everything had already been set in stone by the time she heard of it.
It was the best time for him to initiate the proposal.
Who was the backer?
Could it really be that mysterious woman who made Wen Haowen stay out?
What was her motive for helping Wen Haowen?
The scheming plan was rather hair-raising.
The idea of the entertainment city was too sensitive and even to date, no one in China had dared to brazenly operate an entertainment city. If they were to be careless, they might just end up causing the Wen Corporation to suffer a huge financial loss.
She did not intervene immediately, not because she did not have a way to do so, but rather, it was because she had too little information at the moment and she would easily alarm the mastermind if she were to intervene carelessly. She instructed Secretary Cao to keep a lookout and pay attention to the Wen Corporation’s matters, all because she could find out more. Only by finding out more about her enemy, could she find a real solution to the problem.
Wen Xinya took a deep breath and stopped herself from feeling flustered.
She dialed Celestial Detective Agency’s number and said, “Apart from what I told you to investigate on this morning, do send someone to keep an eye on Wen Haowen and pay attention to his actions. Also, help me look into the background of that plot of land in the West City of the Northern region.”
The majority of the city’s development was focused in the Southeast region, along with the development of the East-West subway line. The entire route was estimated to be completed in April of next year and would go into operation in May. The developments in the West had also begun progressing. The Northern region was the only one that was closer to Russia. There was an extreme economic gap in that region too.
The Southern City of the Northern region was a luxurious district where upscale homes and mansions were rampant. The Eastern City was a tourist location comprising of entertainment joints and resorts while the Western and Northern cities were rowdy, complicated and sordid.
Meanwhile, Wen Haowen was planning to build the entertainment city in the low-rise shantytowns on the borders between the two cities. It was still unknown if the Wen Corporation could purchase such a large plot of land. Besides, the security there was lax and there might be even more problems.
It was a good thing to send someone there to reconnoiter and find out more about the place.
The person on the other end of the line answered, “The results for the investigation on that plot of land will be out tomorrow. I’ll email them to your mailbox.”
Wen Xinya exclaimed, “Sure!”
Just as they were about to end the call, the man on the other end of the line added, “There’s something I have to inform you of.”
Why does he sound so serious? Wen Xinya asked in shock, “What’s the matter?”
“When you told me to investigate on the matters that took place after Xia Ruya got kidnapped, you got me to stop after we failed to find anything. However, I’ve recently found out something.”
Hearing the seriousness of his tone, Wen Xinya was filled with an ominous feeling.
“That man who Xia Ruya assaulted suffered brain damage after being hit on the head and he ended up missing the effective treatment window. As a result, he became mentally challenged and now has the IQ of a three-year-old. The other three abductors were killed by their enemies. After some investigation by the police, they concluded the case. I thought you’d be interested in the case, so I investigated it again. However, I didn’t find any new clues.”
Due to the fact that the case had been closed, they stopped investigating on the matter and had only discovered that detail all of a sudden. After all, she was his employer and he felt obliged to tell her the information he had just found out.
Wen Xinya tightened her grip on her mobile phone while her breathing began to quicken. She felt that there couldn’t be such a coincidence and that it must have something to do with Xia Ruya. Even Celestial Detective Agency could not find out anything about the matter. Clearly… Xia Ruya had been extremely careful and scheming.
Could it be, she has someone to back her up too?
Does it have something to do with the person behind Ning Shuqian?
She realized that she had sunk into a whirlpool of questions. Her enemies seemed to forever have an unexpected trump card.
Wen Xinya’s throat turned hoarse and she was at a loss for words.
“There’s another important piece of information that I’m going to give you for free on the account that we’ve been working together for such a long time. Xia Ruya has gone missing for five days. I’m sure she’s already left the city, though I’m not sure where exactly she has gone. I sent someone to look into it and I found that Xia Ruya has a mysterious power behind her who has stopped us from finding out more. Xia Ruya is not a simple person and she’s tought to deal with too. You should be careful.”
The look in Wen Xinya’s eyes became a little terrifying. “Thank you for telling me such an important piece of news.”
Xia Ruya, whom she thought was harmless, had actually gone missing without her realization. The thought of it made her feel infuriated.
She had to attack her at all costs.
Wen Xinya closed her eyes and thought about the men who had abducted Xia Ruya as well as their fates. She felt a cold chill down her spine. Once one’s hands were stained with blood, he would be taken over by evil and have no limits. Those were the most terrifying people in the world. They would also forgo their conscience and resort to anything to get what they want. They would also give up their kindness and benevolence.
There would be more than a battle of wit and conniving ways the next time she saw Xia Ruya.
She had just gone on a short trip to Russia and yet, so much had happened. Wen Xinya could not help but sigh.
