The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Chapter 506
Advertisement
The man must have just taken a bath. He was sitting on a couch as the light above him cast a yellow halo on him. A breeze blew, carrying with it a few snowflakes and wetting his eyelashes.
He was wiping his hair with a white towel, his hands looking fair.
Fu Zhi put her gaming console on the side and said, "Li Nanli."
"Yeah."
The man picked up his phone as he casually draped the towel over his shoulder and went back into his room.
When his eyes met Fu Zhi's gaze, he chuckled a little and said, "There will be a banquet tonight. It's held by the younger members of the Zheng Family."
He threw his phone on the bed as he began to change into his suit.
On the other side of the line, Fu Zhi stared at the screen.
"Tsk, do you want to see, Zhizhi?" Li Nanli asked when he noticed her gaze. He cocked his head to the side and glanced at the phone on the bed.
Fu Zhi took a sip of milk from her cup.
The weather was cold, and she had no idea why but she felt a little bit hot inside. She pulled at the collar of her shirt, and just as she was about to decline and tell him that he should not simply offer to show his body to other people, Li Nanli chimed in and said, his voice thick with amusement, "Never. I won't let you see it if you don't commit to me."
Fu Zhi was stunned.
'No! Wait! Hold on! I didn't say I wanted to see!'
Before she could say anything, the white robe on Li Nanli's body fell and covered the phone.
Fu Zhi did not know what to say.
The man looked even more dashing in the black suit. He picked the phone up and asked, "Do you want to come with me and have some fun at the banquet?"
Fu Zhi leaned against the back of the chair and looked outside. The snow seemed to be letting up.
"Nope. I am meeting my friends. We are going to play games."

As she was talking, the door to Li Nanli's room was opened from the outside.
Gu Yanqi emerged and said, "Jiang Jinshu took someone to survey the Zheng Family's old mansion. The banquet will start soon, so we should leave now."
Li Nanli brought three teams with him this time. Other than Jiang Jinshu and Gu Yanqi, the last team consisted of Han Qi and Tang Ying. Both of them had come to Myanmar a long time ago, but they were on a mission right now.
The negotiation with the Zheng Family had not started yet. They would hold the banquet yearly, so things would get a little milder during this period of time.
That was why Li Nanli had invited Fu Zhi to the banquet, but Fu Zhi was not interested.
Gu Yanqi nodded at Fu Zhi in reply.
Li Nanli then rubbed Fu Zhi's eyes through the phone and said, "Don't keep playing games. I'll call you when I get to the party."
"Okay," Fu Zhi replied. Then, Li Nanli hung up the call.
There were seven to eight sports cars outside of the mansion.
Liu Mi opened the door, and Gu Yanqi and Li Nanli got into the car at the front.
The parade of cars then left the mansion one by one.
5:30 p.m, mealtime.
Jiang Jinshu and his team had been monitoring the Zheng Family and were exhausted, so they took a break in a restaurant.
They were all chit-chatting while drinking wine.
"I don't know what President Li is thinking. How can he not believe Boss Jiang and Tang Ying's judgment and change the plan at the last minute just because of a woman?"
"Well, she's his girlfriend. She's young, but she's kind of cocky."
"Does she really think she's a genius doctor?"
"Genius doctor? She's nothing compared to Z God. I don't know why she keeps saying that Old Master Zheng is faking his illness. All the branches of the Zheng Family have rushed here and are waiting to split the family property, so how can it be fake?
"If it were not for her, I would be escorting President Li to the Zheng Family's banquet. Why didn't you say something to President Li, boss?"

Jiang Jinshu gripped his phone tightly and sneered, "Let's wait two more days. If nothing strange happens, we're going back!"
Then, he would demand an explanation from Fu Zhi!
With that thought in mind, Jiang Jinshu pulled up the live footage on the laptop and set it aside. "Let's order something to eat."
As they were ordering their food, a man with a bald head appeared in the live footage. He walked up to the back door of the Zheng Mansion and looked around. Then, he knocked rhythmically on the door.
Very soon, a man in a Tang suit emerged from the door. "Have you brought the medicine?"
The man nodded.
The man in the Tang suit then looked around before pulling the man inside.
They thought nobody was looking at them, but unfortunately, a young man sitting next to Jiang Jinshu saw everything. He pointed at the laptop and shouted, "Isn't he the butler of the Zheng Family? What is he doing at the back door?"

In the meantime, at Lucky Cloud Pavilion...
After Wang Rui parked the car in the parking lot, he led Xu Wei up to the second floor. Only Lu Jingqing was left in the spacious room, while the rest of his team was checking on the jade stone downstairs.
He had an electronic file in his hand, and it seemed like he was checking the price of the jade stone.
"Hubby..."
Xu Wei's voice nearly caused Wang Rao to ascend into heaven on the spot. After all, he thought Xu Wei was like Fu Zhi. Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that there'd be two different sides to Xu Wei. What surprised him even more was that Lu Jingqing put down the file in his hand and seemed to be enjoying the way Xu Wei was calling him very much.
Based on this, Wang Rao seemed to understand why Fu Zhi had refused to come with Xu Wei and Lu Jingqing.
Not only would they show their love in public, but they did not care if anyone was watching them as they were doing it either.
"Hubby, hug me!"
She stretched her arms toward Lu Jingqing, and her eyes were red due to motion sickness.
"What's wrong, honey?" Lu Jingqing pulled her to his side. He filled an empty cup with warm water and passed it to her. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he quickly took out the strawberry candy he had in his pocket to give it to Xu Wei.
As Xu Wei was sucking on the candy, she pouted her mouth and said, "Hubby, I thought I wouldn't be seeing you again!"
While Lu Jingqing helped her wipe away the snowflakes on her shirt, he said, "It's okay. I'm here."
"Okay!" Xu Wei replied.
Wang Rao was stunned.
'So this is love? So there is indeed a successful and loving man behind every charming woman?'
He had no idea why but he suddenly felt like he had changed gender. He wanted to become Lu Jingqing's wife too!
The atmosphere in the meeting room was warm. At the same time, Wu Qi came upstairs with a woman. The woman was Chen Mei, the daughter of the boss of the Lucky Cloud Pavilion.
The Lucky Cloud Pavilion was the Chen Family's business. Chen Mei was the only daughter of the boss of the Lucky Cloud Pavilion. She was turning 38 this year. She had just gotten divorced two years ago and she had a daughter. Her daughter was also a famous social butterfly at the Lucky Cloud Pavilion.
The first thing Chen Mei and Wu Qi saw when they came up were Lu Jingqing and Xu Wei. The two of them were sitting together. Chen Mei automatically ignored Xu Wei as she clapped her eyes on the man beside Xu Wei. He was gorgeous, distinguished, and most importantly, his eyes were filled with tenderness and love as he was looking at the cute woman beside him.
Chen Mei thought that he was the best husband material in the world. She raised her brows and asked Wu Qi, "Who is this man?"
