“Yuncan, buddy, don’t go. Please help me to find a solution.” Zhao Xingji said with a miserable and crying face. He leaned forward, grabbed Luo Yuncan’s arm, and refused to let him leave. At the thought of the rage that was coming, he shivered all over. “I can’t help you,” Luo Yuncan said coldly, flinging Zhao Xingji’s hands away.

“Are you still my friend?” Zhao Xingji wailed. “Since we are buddies, I will help you prepare a good burial place,” Luo Yuncan said nonchalantly. “Okay, you’re cruel,” Zhao Xingji said. Just as he was talking, his cell phone rang. At the glance of it, his expression instantly turned very interesting. He shrank his shoulders and said, “It’s Boss Ming.”

“Boss Ming, you’re looking for me?” Zhao Xingji picked up the call cautiously, his face full of fawning. “You arranged for that woman to come.” Ye Ming’s cold voice could be heard coming from the phone. “Y-yes… Boss Ming, are you satisfied with her?” Zhao Xingji said, trying to gain Ye Ming’s favor.

“Satisfied, very satisfied.” Ye Ming gritted his teeth. This damn fatty actually dared to ask him if he was satisfied. His house had turned into a mess, his lips bitten and torn, his thighs kicked, he bowed and apologized, and even his precious sketch was almost ruined. How could he be dissatisfied? He was extremely satisfied.

At the sound of Ye Ming speaking through his gritted teeth, Zhao Xingji shrunk his shoulders again. He looked so pitiful. He knew Ye Ming since he was a child and understood Ye Ming very well. The more angry he was, the more nonchalant he would appear. He was starting to say things that were opposite to his thoughts. He could tell how unhappy Ye Ming was.

“How is he?” After Ye Ming hung up on the phone a moment later, Luo Yuncan went forward and asked. “I’m dead meat this time. Big Boss didn’t speak from his heart. He is really infuriated,” Zhao Xingji said pitifully.

“Pray and cross your fingers then.” Luo Yuncan patted his shoulders with a look of pity. “Yuncan, my good buddy, you have to save me this time. Come with me to explain to Boss Ming.” Zhao Xingji grabbed Luo Yuncan’s hand as if he was clutching on to his last straw.

“Find out what happened first before we talk about it,” Luo Yuncan said. “Right… Right… Let’s get to the bottom of the matter first. Let me make a call.” Zhao Xingji nodded. He then took out his phone and dialed a number.

After ringing for some time, no one picked up the phone. Zhao Xingji said bitterly, “No one picked up the call. Do you think Boss Ming killed her?” Luo Yuncan replied with some uncertainty, “I don’t think so. Young Master Ming is not that brutal. Try to call her again.”

Zhao Xingji dialed again. This time, the call went through. When the call was picked up, Zhao Xingji screamed, “What happened to you? Why didn’t you pick up my call?” A weak voice could be heard coming from the other end of the phone, “Sorry, Young Master Xing, I am hospitalized due to a car accident.”

“Car accident? Hospitalized?” Zhao Xingji was shocked. However, immediately after, he was not concerned about the issue anymore. The most critical thing now was to find out what exactly happened. As to the life and death of a small celebrity, he did not care.

“Tell me everything that happened at Boss Ming’s house,” Zhao Xingji said. “Young Master Xing, sorry, I got into a car accident before that. I have been lying in the hospital and did not manage to go to Young Master Ming’s house,” The voice from the other end of the phone said nervously, sounding frightened.

“Are you sure that you didn’t go to Boss Ming’s house?” Zhao Xingji said. “I am sure. I wouldn’t dare to lie to you even if I had 10 guts. Moreover, the doctor beside me can be my witness,” The person from the other side of the phone said.
