Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 1143: After Waiting So Long, Today Finally Came

Nangong Qiang looked up at the ceiling, and after a few seconds, cold sweat started to appear on his forehead along with the face that emerged in his mind.

"Brother Cheng!" He slammed the table and stood up, panicking: "I was wrong, brother!"

Damn it! Is he crazy? How could he forget someone so important?

Jiang Cheng, the one who often follows Fu Shihan around, the owner of Musu Bar!

Nangong Qiang swallowed and forced a smile, lowering his voice.

"Brother, it’s really noisy over here, so I didn’t pick up on your voice. My mistake, I’ll make sure to pay attention in the future!"

With praise flying like rainbow farts, Jiang Cheng listened to his nonsense for about two minutes. Thinking he might go on taking forever if he didn’t stop him, he lazily interrupted.

"Alright, don’t say so much useless stuff. I’m calling because I have something to discuss."

"Okay, Brother Cheng, tell me what’s up!"

Nangong Qiang was incredibly ingratiating, but actually, as soon as he remembered Jiang Cheng’s identity, he already had a good idea in his mind.

After the call ended, Nangong Qiang leaned back in his chair with his legs stretched over the desk, his expression completely transformed, and the atmosphere in the office instantly relaxed quite a bit.

Those who had been afraid to breathe earlier approached him after hearing him hum a tune softly: "Waited for so long, finally waited until today~."

"Brother Qiang, should we post something?"

"Boss, the trolls online have been attacking us for a full day now."

"Our rivals are also mockingly saying we don’t know anything."

"And, damn, there’s something even worse, asking if our studio has gone bankrupt and run away!"

Nangong Qiang earned his nickname as the number one paparazzi in the industry not without reason. Whether it’s fights, divorces, or mistresses rising to power, this guy is usually the first to break the news.

But this time, even though the outside world is buzzing with rumors and many media outlets have presented their so-called ’concrete evidence,’ Nangong Qiang’s Weibo remains motionless.

"What’s the rush?!" Nangong Qiang glanced at them indifferently and sat up straight with a smirk. "Leaving work early today, come on~ get ready and let’s go eat!"

The group exchanged looks, worried but said no more.

Because Nangong Qiang’s favorite place for treating is the neighboring hot pot restaurant, with two main characteristics: it’s expensive, and it’s delicious. The cost is the kind that averages one thousand per person.

The day flew by quickly like that, and Su Wanxin noticed the time again when Lin Rui reminded her.

Unconsciously, the sky already turned completely dark, and Su Wanxin glanced at the watch on her wrist and sighed.

Been busy all day, yet there’s still a ton of work to do, as if no matter how hard you try, there are always things waiting for you to handle, over and over, never-ending.

"What’s wrong?!"

Seeing her gradually lower her head, staring at her belly in a daze, Lin Rui couldn’t help but nervously lean in.

"Stomach hurts? Let’s go to the hospital!"

"It’s okay." Su Wanxin slowly lifted her head, giving a wry smile: "Just wondering if I should pay the IQ tax and buy an anti-radiation suit to wear."

She simply tidied up her desk and then followed Lin Rui out of the office.

Outside the company gate, the appearance of someone unexpectedly made Su Wanxin raise her eyebrows, because she hadn’t expected it at all.

As Lin Rui saw Fu Ziqian, he immediately defensively blocked in front of Su Wanxin. But then Su Wanxin spoke in a laughing tone, "It’s an honor for President Fu to grace us with your presence and wait for so long; wondering what business you have with me?"

On the ground were five or six cigarette butts, clearly all discarded by Fu Ziqian.
