Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 405: An Objective Evaluation of Fu Shihan

"Sorry, I can’t make it to the dinner tonight. Do you have her contact information? I need to see her." Su Yao looked at Zhuo Yiqing with a serious and earnest expression.

Zhuo Yiqing seemed somewhat troubled upon hearing this, "I do have her contact, but her phone is turned off and unreachable. I went to her company today, and heard she has been hospitalized due to illness. I’m not clear about which hospital she is in yet."

"Illness... Is it serious?"

"I don’t have much information at the moment. Her employees said they would call me back later to tell me the hospital name."

"Alright, let’s wait for their call."

Su Yao nodded, and they walked to the parking lot. After getting into the car, she took out her phone and started looking up Su Wanxin’s information.

This name was undoubtedly unfamiliar to her. However, the face appearing in the search results was all too familiar.

Su Yao lowered her eyelids to hide the emotions in her eyes. After watching a video about Su Wanxin, she looked up at Zhuo Yiqing and asked, "What’s going on here?"

The video she watched showed Shen Xiaochen’s previous birthday incident, where Su Wanxin was nearly forced upon through a plot, used a dagger to wound her leg to stay awake, and then executed a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw followed by a fierce kick to the assailant’s vital part.

The video was very popular online during the time it circulated, getting reposted by many big V bloggers, including some famous cops with a lot of followers who praised Su Wanxin’s self-defense posture as very standard.

Zhuo Yiqing briefly explained the events as they happened to Su Yao, who, after listening, frowned and did not ask further, continuing to look at her phone.

By the time the car arrived at the hotel, Su Yao had basically finished gathering information about Su Wanxin.

CEO of Su Family, orphan, pregnant before marriage, in conflict with the CEO of Fu Group.

Storing these important pieces of information in her mind, Su Yao entered the hotel room and found a name in the contacts list, then dialed it.

After a moment, the call was answered, and she got straight to the point, "Brother, when you previously collaborated with Fu Group in Hua Country, was the contract signed by Fu Shihan?"

"Yes." Su Yu sounded puzzled, "Why are you suddenly asking about this person?"

"What’s your opinion of him? Give me an objective assessment."

After a few seconds of silence, Su Yu gave a very objective response: "Difficult to get along with."

Any intelligent person’s first impression upon meeting Fu Shihan should be just that.

Shrewd, cunning, and difficult to get along with.

Su Yao clicked her tongue upon hearing this and smirked meaningfully, "Brother, I just arrived in Hua Country and found an interesting person."

"Fu Shihan?"

"No, her name is Su Wanxin. I’ll send you a picture, and after you look at it, give me an objective assessment again about how this person looks."

After saying that, she hung up the phone and casually sent a few pictures of Su Wanxin.

Moments later, Su Yu called back: "Who is this person?"

"What do you think of her looks?" Su Yao persisted, her lips slightly upturned.

"Yaoyao." Su Yu wasn’t in the mood for jokes, calling her name in a low voice. After hearing this, Su Yao sighed and recounted what had happened.

"Those two people who came to pick me up had their eyes glued on me. I thought I was so good-looking that it scared them, but it turned out that they were expecting someone else’s name.

I just checked online, and this Su Wanxin seems to be quite well-known in the financial circles of Hua Country. However, it seems she has some conflict with Fu Shihan and doesn’t seem to have a good relationship."

An Empire, a Hua Country.

Different territories, different industries, therefore the chances of knowing each other are even scarcer.
