Chapter 910: Chapter 344: Threat
To be honest, when he saw the clothes scattered on the floor, Zhou Wang’s mind was filled with various speculations.
An older female classmate? Jiang Qingkui who returned unexpectedly? Or even Miao Ying, the least likely…
At one point, Zhou Wang even thought of Su Yajing.
After all, Su Ranran complained to him every day about how tiring it was to manage the hotel, how boring school was and she wanted to quit. Her fondest wish was to book a ticket to fly to Beidou immediately and stick by Zhou Wang’s side all day long without going anywhere else.
But those speculations were all rejected by him one by one.
Because none of them matched the conditions.
The likes of the older female classmate never even came here, and Jiang Qingkui and Miao Ying would never do something as bold as stripping naked and getting in bed to please him.
Most importantly, theoretically, Jiang Qingkui was the only one with a spare key to this place, but even if Jiang Qingkui wanted to surprise him, she wouldn’t do it in such a shocking way.
She wouldn’t be so indiscreet.
So at this moment, when he saw the woman on the bed clearly, Zhou Wang’s eyes filled with astonishment.
It was his first time seeing this woman, but he recognized her at a glance.
With her iconic long legs, snow-white skin, thin waist and round hips, a face with exotic features almost like a biracial person, her deep and delicate features bore some resemblance to Miss Di, yet were different in every way…
A top-tier celebrity from the entertainment industry, a four-character Miss Gu.
After making eye contact with Zhou Wang, Miss Gu quickly avoided his gaze, hugged her snow-white shoulders, and lay on the bed in a rather indecorous position, her legs tucked together, and her cheeks were adorned with rosy hues brought on by shyness.
Her beauty was astonishing, but Zhou Wang’s mind was filled with questions.
“Why… are you in my home?”
“I, I…”
Probably because Zhou Wang’s cold and wary reaction was different from what she imagined, Miss Gu was momentarily flustered, seemingly at a loss for how to explain.
Then, as if recollecting something, Miss Gu shivered slightly but still closed her eyes, and slowly opened her legs.
Zhou Wang looked on, perplexed, and soon saw that between Miss Gu’s long legs, there was a thin slip of paper attached.
Confused, Zhou Wang took a few steps forward, then bent down to peel off the thin slip of paper, which seemed to be slightly moist. It turned out to be a blank bank check.
At this moment, Miss Gu hesitantly spoke, “They… they said, you can fill in any amount on this check…”
“They?”
Zhou Wang’s eyes narrowed.
At this point, Zhou Wang finally guessed something.
A blank check plus a beautiful celebrity at one’s disposal…
Was this what Xue Mingyuan referred to as an “opportunity”?
“Did Xueren Group send you here?”
“I don’t know, I’m just following someone else’s orders…”
Miss Gu shook her head.
Zhou Wang observed her subtle expressions, she seemed not to be lying, but to confirm, Zhou Wang still took out his phone, and amidst Miss Gu’s panicked expression, took a picture with a “snap”.
“Mr. Zhou, what… what are you doing!”
At this point, Miss Gu no longer bothered to hide her body, hurriedly crawled off the bed to grab Zhou Wang’s phone.
Zhou Wang simply raised his hand higher, and said lightly: “If you keep lying, I’ll post this photo online immediately. I may not be very talented, but I do have a million-odd followers.”
Miss Gu’s face turned to one of terror, knowing she couldn’t outmatch Zhou Wang, she hurriedly clung to his leg and pleaded:
“Please, please don’t, I’m telling the truth… I really don’t know anything, the boss sent me, I’m just doing as she asked… sob, actually I didn’t want to come, but I had no choice…”
Zhou Wang waited for a moment and, hearing no more, pocketed his phone and turned to leave the bedroom.
“I’ll give you five minutes to get dressed, and we can talk downstairs… Also, I want to speak to your boss.”
…
Five minutes later.
As Zhou Wang smoked a cigarette in the living room, the dressed Miss Gu finally came down wrapped in a coat.
She was barefoot, holding high heels in her hand, and carefully approached Zhou Wang, then handed him the phone with her head lowered.
“It’s Sister Bingbing… I’ve already told her.”
Zhou Wang glanced at her in surprise, mainly because the tear stains on Miss Gu’s face were gone, indicating that within these five minutes, she even took the time to touch up her makeup…
6.
Zhou Wang took the phone, pressed the speaker button, and a slightly magnetic female voice came from the other end:
“Hello, is this Zhou Wang, Mr. Zhou?”
Upon hearing the voice, Zhou Wang immediately knew who Miss Gu’s “Sister Bingbing” was, he was quite surprised, didn’t expect Miss Gu’s boss would be her.
“Miss Li, are you Miss Gu’s boss?”
“It seems Mr. Zhou isn’t too concerned with the entertainment industry affairs, yes, the Hesong Media that Miss Gu is signed with is my company.”
“So today’s incident was orchestrated by you?”
Zhou Wang’s tone turned cold.
“Mr. Zhou is a wise man, you should know that I’m also compelled by circumstances… I owed Xue Mingyuan a favor in the past, I had to repay it…”
On the other end, Miss Li sighed, “I have no intention of getting caught up in your conflicts, poor Miss Gu is just a pitiful person, I hope Zhou Wang can forgive her.”
“But you’re already caught up, aren’t you?”
Miss Li paused for a moment, then slowly said:
“Mr. Zhou, there’s no need to be so aggressive, I hope you understand, while I may have compulsion in this, it doesn’t mean I am completely powerless in this matter…”
