Chapter 736: 735: Waking Up to Reality, Deserved Consequences for Immoral Acts
“Miss, isn’t it a bit frightening for you to show up here so abruptly in the afternoon? Are you feeling unwell, or what? There’s no need for your face to look so awful, right?”
Sun Ning unconsciously moved back upon seeing Chu Yunxuan’s unpleasant complexion. He worried that in the next second, Chu Yunxuan might lay hands on him. He was certain that if it came down to a little brawl, he truly couldn’t beat Chu Yunxuan.
“No, it’s not about me. Let me give you a quick rundown. The matter that Wen Xin asked you to handle…”
“Wen Xin has an entertainment company back in the country, and there’s a popular artist there. This artist was also in P City a few days ago and ran into some trouble…”
Listening to Chu Yunxuan’s explanation, Sun Ning involuntarily furrowed his brows and raised a hand to stop her.
“Wait… What’s the use of you telling me this? What does this have to do with me?”
“Your question hits the nail on the head!” Chu Yunxuan took a seat opposite Sun Ning, propped her chin in her hand, and gave him a flirtatious smile.
“This matter needs your help. Originally, Wen Xin was supposed to handle it, but Wen Xin doesn’t want to get too involved with Luo Qiete. You know how jealous that man in Wen Xin’s family can get; he hasn’t even done much yet and has already taken the person away!”
Looking at Chu Yunxuan’s seductive smile, Sun Ning took a deep breath and waved his hands at her, “Wait… hold on, if you have something to say, just tell me straight. Don’t try to seduce me here. Although I’m not interested in you, I really can’t withstand this…”
Sun Ning couldn’t deny the allure of Chu Yunxuan’s flirtations. Even someone like him found it hard to resist. It really tested a person’s willpower.
Seeing Sun Ning relent, Chu Yunxuan immediately reverted to a very serious demeanor.
“Since you’ve agreed, I’ll just tell you straight. Wen Xin wants you to go find Luo Qiete and negotiate with him to get Chu Mufeng out of one of his Hall Master’s hands… As for compensation, tell him we’re willing to cooperate…”
Sun Ning raised a hand to rub his slightly aching temples, still looking somewhat puzzled at Chu Yunxuan.
“Hold on, let me sort this out. So, the star you mentioned was abducted by one of Luo Qiete’s Hall Masters, but why did he abduct him? And what about compensation? If some outrageous act has been committed that requires compensation, how can I help if you don’t clarify things?”
Chu Yunxuan found Sun Ning’s questions somewhat difficult to answer. She had intended to explain things vaguely, as everything would naturally be resolved once Sun Ning found Luo Qiete.
But she had utterly not expected Sun Ning to be so persistent.
“Oh come on, you don’t need to ask so many details. Just go straight to Luo Qiete…”
“Wait a minute, don’t try to be vague here and sneak your way through! You’d better explain things clearly to me. It’s best to be clear about such matters. Luo Qiete and I aren’t exactly friends, and if the matter is too serious, I might not be able to help!”
Sun Ning understood very well that Luo Qiete was always grateful to Wen Xin; moreover, the relationship between Wen Xin and Luo Qiete was merely transactional, devoid of any personal connection or feelings. So, even when asking for a favor, the gravity of the situation had to be considered.
“Oh, why have you suddenly become so obstinate? It’s just that someone said Chu Mufeng slept with that Hall Master’s woman, and then he got abducted…”
Chu Yunxuan, under Sun Ning’s procrastination, just couldn’t hold back and spilled the truth.
After she finished speaking, Sun Ning waved his hands in shock, “How can I help you with this kind of thing? Killing parents and bedding someone’s wife are unforgivable issues. How can you have the cheek to ask me to find Luo Qiete for you?”
Sun Ning stood up, looking at Chu Yunxuan with a face full of disgust. Did she think he had too long a life to come to him with such a matter?
“I don’t care, it was your family’s little princess who asked me to come find you. She said you could handle this matter. I don’t care, you have to deal with it even if you don’t want to!”
Seeing Sun Ning ignore her, Chu Yunxuan resorted to playing the spoiled child. She really had no other choice—if she could have resolved this through the Di Ting Organization, she wouldn’t have bothered coming here!
“I don’t care, and I can’t do something so immoral, even if it’s the little princess who asks. Let her solve it herself; I can’t do it.”
As Chu Yunxuan started to be stubborn, Sun Ning sat back down, adopting an attitude of resignation. He didn’t believe Chu Yunxuan would force him at knifepoint to do something he didn’t want to do.
Chu Yunxuan felt helpless looking at Sun Ning, giving up so easily. It was the first time she had utilized so many strategies on someone, and still, they were of no use—it was truly… invincible.
“Forget it then, if you don’t want to help, are you willing to give me a way to contact Luo Qiete? I’ll just say Wen Xin gave it to me!”
In the end, Chu Yunxuan had to compromise. She couldn’t force Sun Ning to do something he didn’t want to do.
“I can’t give it to you. I don’t have Luo Qiete’s contact information either. Just go directly to Wen Xin. She probably doesn’t have his contact information either; I’ve never seen her in contact with Luo Qiete.”
Sun Ning raised his hand and pointed towards the direction of the door outside the ward. “Do you see any men in black at the door? Go find them; they can get in touch with Luo Qiete. Any news I get is relayed through them!”
Chu Yunxuan looked at Sun Ning half in doubt. She could believe that Wen Xin didn’t have Luo Qiete’s contact, but she was dubious about Sun Ning not having it. How could a chief physician not have the contact information of a patient’s family member?
“Fine, I won’t trouble you anymore. I’ll figure it out myself. This is really annoying.” Chu Yunxuan stood up from her chair and frustratedly threw the pen she was fiddling with onto the table.
When Chu Yunxuan left Sun Ning’s office, his gaze somewhat scattered, he stared at the pen standing upright on the table, unable to believe how much strength Chu Yunxuan must have possessed to stab a pen straight into his office desk…
Chu Yunxuan left Sun Ning’s office and walked straight toward the men in black standing outside the ward.
“Could I trouble you guys for a second? I wanted to ask when Luo Qiete is coming. I have something…”
“What do you need me for?” Luo Qiete walked into the corridor and saw Chu Yunxuan talking to several men in black. He remembered the figure of Chu Yunxuan—from the day Wen Xin went to the villa, she was the one who came with her.
Hearing the deep voice behind her, Chu Yunxuan quickly turned her head and upon seeing Luo Qiete, couldn’t help but smile unintentionally. It was like finding something effortlessly after searching everywhere with no luck!
Chu Yunxuan immediately turned and walked towards Luo Qiete with a warm and sincere smile on her face.
“Mr. Luo Qiete, hello, I am…”
