Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Song Yun left the TV station feeling upset, muttering to himself, "I didn't provoke anyone, for God's sake!"

"Why am I being targeted even on a talk show!"

"Go check if Qi Yu has been in contact with anyone recently. The offensive things she asked couldn't have been just out of pure curiosity!"@@novelbin@@

In the car, Song Yun closed his eyes and instructed Huang Baoding.

After Huang Baoding acknowledged the task, he first dropped Song Yun off at Hua Shou Villa and then drove off to investigate.

Around evening, Huang Baoding handed a stack of documents to Song Yun.

Song Yun briefly flipped through a couple of pages and found the information on one of them particularly interesting.

It was last night when Qi Yu had dinner with two people, one of whom happened to be an old acquaintance of Song Yun's.

Shi Si!

This person from a reclusive family had escaped in a previous conflict, and Song Yun had turned the world upside down looking for him for a long time without success.

And now he had returned without notice!

Pointing at the photo of Shi Si with great interest, Song Yun said with a smile, "Don't be fooled by his leaner appearance. Those greedy eyes have always been gleaming. I recognized them at first glance."

Huang Baoding leaned in, looked for a long time, and then exclaimed in surprise, "Is this that 'certain someone'? "

"Exactly, playing tricks behind my back, huh!"

Leaning back in his chair, Song Yun let out a long sigh and said with a chuckle, "It seems the other party's not planning to take me head-on; they're starting to attack my image from all sides."

"Boss Song, what should we do?"

"Let's pay a visit to Miss Qi first."

...

Since carrying her box out of the TV station, Qi Yu's phone had exploded with calls.

Some were offering sympathetic words, some, sensing her downfall, invited her out with ill intentions, and others mocked her. In just half a day, Qi Yu had truly seen the fickleness of human relationships!

When she'd first graduated from university and joined the TV station, someone behind the scenes had taken a liking to her — she'd had a smooth journey without much adversity, which had cultivated her proud heart.

Today, leaving her job, she learned what it meant to be 'a tiger fallen on flat ground bullied by dogs'!

But strangely enough, even though the incident had caused an uproar in the circle, the person behind her would surely have known about it first-hand, yet why... had he not called her?

Sitting on the living room couch, Qi Yu pondered for a while before deciding to call that person.

But just as she connected the call, she heard familiar music outside her door.

He had actually taken time out of his busy schedule to see me!

Qi Yu's heart raced, thumping wildly. She pursed her lips and carefully opened the door.

There stood three people outside. One was the influential backer behind her. The other two... one was Song Yun, and the other she did not recognize.

"Mr. Song, let's talk inside."

The powerful figure behind Qi Yu was actually forty-six years old but looked well-maintained enough that people who didn't know his age might guess he was only in his thirties.

"Guests follow the host's lead, please enter first."

Song Yun made a polite gesture, then entered Qi Yu's house with Huang Baoding.

In fact, Song Yun had initially considered coming to Qi Yu directly, but his recent issues were too numerous, and he didn't want to be caught up in a scandal of a secret rendezvous with a woman, so he had specifically sought out Qi Yu's influential backer, and three of them had come together.

Speaking of the man behind Qi Yu, his identity was also quite interesting. He was originally a scion of a prominent Forty-nine City family, but he had disliked his father's ways from an early age, showing a keen interest in the entertainment industry instead. Despite this, he had never set up an entertainment company.

He always participated in the industry as an outsider.

Moreover, even at over forty years old, he had never considered marriage, truly living as though untouched by the myriad temptations around him.

"Elder Lu, why did you bring him here?"

Qi Yu quietly pulled on the collar of her backer and asked in a low voice.

"Idiot! I haven't even settled the score with you for today's matters! I know exactly what kind of person Mr. Song is – much clearer than you! All those questions you asked were rubbish!"

Elder Lu scolded in a low voice, "I don't care what you're thinking, but when Mr. Song asks you something, you just answer! If you hide even the slightest bit, you won't be able to mix in here anymore!"

"Oh..."

Qi Yu had thought that Elder Lu's status was high enough, but she didn't expect that she still needed to be cautious around Song Yun.

Elder Lu seemed very familiar with Qi Yu's room, found some good tea to brew, and personally poured a cup for Song Yun, saying, "Mr. Song, feel free to ask anything you like, I guarantee she won't lie."

"I'm really troubled by today's matters, and if there's anything bothering you in the future, you can come to me."

After speaking, Song Yun took out a piece of paper from his bag, pushed it in front of Qi Yu, and asked, "Miss Qi, you're familiar with the person in here, aren't you?"

Qi Yu looked closely; wasn't this the photo from her dinner last night? How did it end up in Song Yun's hands!

She had never thought this matter would be known to anyone, as all she did with that young man was have a meal!

No one would have imagined that the young man would pay a large sum of money for her to ask those questions!

"Not unfamiliar."

Qi Yu, adhering to the principle that the more she spoke, the more mistakes she'd make, planned to just answer whatever Song Yun asked—and if he didn't ask, she wouldn't speak.

"So between you two, was there any... deeper interaction?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions on both Qi Yu's and Elder Lu's faces changed instantly.

Qi Yu wondered if Song Yun already knew about her taking the money, and how she should either defend herself or lie.

And Elder Lu was thinking, could it be that he'd been cuckolded???

Fuck!

I've been more than generous to you, woman!

"All we did was have a meal, I don't know what you mean by your question."

Qi Yu pretended to remain calm as she spoke.

"Oh? How do you explain the information on this piece of paper, then?"

Song Yun chuckled as he took out the transaction record showing a huge amount of money transferred into Qi Yu's account.

Seeing that much money, Elder Lu's eyes widened with shock and he asked, "Where did you get this money from?"

"I... I made some money from an investment recently, this is the dividend."

"That's not right, you received two transfers in total, one during the meal yesterday, and one after the interview ended today."

Song Yun pointed out, "Moreover, were the two people you dined with both your acquaintances?"

"Yes, they were just friends, and Mr. Song wouldn't be so concerned even about this bit of private life of mine, would he?"

Qi Yu said sarcastically.

Anyway, she had already lost her job at the TV station, and she didn't want to mix in these circles anymore. Without any desires, she felt bold; aside from questioning me in front of Elder Lu, what else can you do to me!

"Heh, then let me ask you, who is this young man? What's his name, where does he live, what's his job, how did you get to know each other?"

"I'm telling you, Mr. Song, if you came here just to check on people, then you can leave."

"What the hell are you blabbering about! Answer whatever you're asked!"

Elder Lu slapped the table twice and shouted, "This matter isn't over until you explain it clearly today!"
