Chapter 548 Can't Find the Person?
"Don't be so hot-tempered; otherwise, Miss Qi might get scared. If she claims amnesia, where am I supposed to find someone?"
Song Yun said with a chuckle, "Miss Qi, the grudge between you and me is, in my view, a very, very trivial matter. But the young man you met, the things he has done are quite brutal. Have you thought about it? What was his intention when he threw you out to question me like that?"
Qi Yu bit her vermilion lips gently, clearly frightened by Lu Ye's just now explosive temper. She had never seen Lu Ye, who was always gentle and elegant outside, claiming to be a suave gentleman, angry to such a terrifying extent!
"Miss Qi, let's put it this way. The person you met, his actual situation might be different from what you think. If you get involved with him, I believe many people will see you as a thorn in their side. Not to mention living leisurely with the money he gave you, even your future survival would be an issue."
Hearing Song Yun's words, Lu Ye was also startled.
He didn't know the background of the young man in the photo. At first, he only thought that the young man might have an affair with his old flame, but after listening to Song Yun, he thought this person was Song Yun's enemy, deliberately coming to smear him, not to hurt Song Yun, but simply to disgust people.
But Song Yun's words became increasingly frightening. Who exactly was this young man? Perhaps the people he had offended were not only Song Yun but many others!
Thinking of this, Lu Ye frowned. He liked to play, true, but he preferred to do so in a safe environment. If every time he stepped out of the door, he had to face enemies, then no one would be in the mood.
"Qi Yu, I believe Mr. Song wouldn't deceive you. Just say whatever you know,"
Lu Ye said with a somber face, "This is your only chance. Otherwise, don't call me ever again. Consider that we have never had anything to do with each other."
"I'll speak!"
Lu Ye was Qi Yu's biggest backer, which was why she dared to talk back to the director and storm out. As long as Lu Ye was there, even if she were sidelined for years, a slight tilt of resources from Lu Ye would be enough for her to rise again!
"Actually, I don't really know who this young man is..."
Qi Yu said in a soft voice, lowering her head, "Last night, my friend invited me to dinner. Only after I got there did I realize this young man was also present. We drank a bit, and after we got a little more acquainted, he said he was your fan and wanted to ask a few questions during the interview program the next day. I didn't intend to agree, but..."
"But he directly gave me a deposit of one million and promised to give me a large sum of money afterward. I thought it was just a few questions, wouldn't have much impact, so I agreed..."
"So your friend is the middleman?"
Song Yun leaned on the sofa, crossing his hands over his lower abdomen and asked, "What does he do for a living? Where does he live? Can you contact him now?"
"Yes! I'll call him right now!"
Qi Yu took out her phone, then placed it on the table, showing she had no tricks up her sleeve before dialing the other party's number.
"Qi Yu, why did you think of calling me at this time? Are you lacking resources after leaving the TV station? I've told you before, that Lǜ guy is no good. How about this, come over to my place later, and I'll introduce you to a few friends, alright?"
Through the phone, a frivolous voice came out.
Lu Ye, listening on the side, had veins bulging on his forehead, but for the sake of not delaying Song Yun's business, he forcefully held back.
"Um... I'll come and see you in a bit."
"Hahaha, you finally came to your senses. Come quickly, I've got the red wine decanted and waiting for you!"
After hanging up the phone, Qi Yu looked down like a child who had done something wrong, not saying a word.
Lu Ye sat on the sofa, fists clenched tight, a faint rage in his gaze.
"Qi Yu, I've been good to you, haven't I?"
Lu Ye spoke up, "All these years, you've made so many mistakes, and each time wasn't it me who smoothed things out for you? Moreover, ever since you started doing the program, all those high-profile guests, wasn't it me pulling strings at dinner parties, thickening my face to please them? And yet you befriend such people, I must have been blind!"
The last sentence was shouted by Lu Ye in a rage, suddenly causing Qi Yu to shiver.
"Lu Ye... I truly haven't spoken ill of you to anyone, I swear..."
"Hmph, let's talk about this once we've dealt with the current matter!"@@novelbin@@
Lu Ye said with a dark expression, "Mr. Song, shall we go right now? I'd like to see exactly how capable this person is."
"No problem."
Song Yun nodded and replied.
It seemed Qi Yu was not a simple character either, having no idea how many such standbys she kept in her daily life.
Looking at Lu Ye again, Song Yun always felt there was something green and oily on his head.
The group drove to the location Qi Yu mentioned, a luxury apartment located at the center of Magic Capital, with one household per elevator, each floor spanning over three hundred square meters. It was safe to say that one wouldn't dare to buy a house here without assets worth hundreds of millions.
"Hello miss, whom are you looking for?"
A professional apartment concierge stood at the stairwell, never letting in anyone unfamiliar without proper recognition.
"Hello, I'm looking for Young Master Qian who lives on the thirteenth floor."
"Okay, let me check if there's an appointment."
The apartment concierge took out a tablet, manipulated it for a while, and then shook his head, "I'm sorry, Young Master Qian did not notify us of any visitors today."
"Perhaps you can give him a call right now."
As Qi Yu took out her phone to call him again, she discovered that Young Master Qian had turned off his phone!
How could this be!
After hanging up, she checked the phone number again. There was no mistake!
She defiantly continued to dial, but the other party was still switched off. Enjoy new chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
"That... I really did speak to Young Master Qian over the phone before coming here. If you don't believe me, look, we talked for several minutes just half an hour ago."
Qi Yu handed her phone to the concierge, but he didn't even glance at it and just smiled, saying, "I'm sorry, without a notification from the residents, we can't allow people to enter. Please understand my position."
"But he's turned off his phone now!"
"Then please wait, I will contact Young Master Qian to inquire. May I know your name?"
"Qi Yu."
"Alright."
In this kind of apartment, there's a landline phone at the entrance of each unit, and the concierge provides contact service when guests cannot reach the residents.
The concierge went into the duty room and dialed Young Master Qian's landline.
But after over a minute of busy signal, nobody picked up the landline.
"Miss, are you sure Young Master Qian is at home?"
The concierge asked, poking his head out.
"Of course he's home! Right, you have surveillance here, don't you? You can check whether he arrived today!"
What do you think?
