Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

It was all peaceful and quiet for the next two days.

A day later, Jiang Zhe suddenly received a call from Yu Xiang, asking him to have dinner with her that night.

In truth, Jiang Zhe had been contemplating asking Yu Xiang out for the past two days, but he always ended up

suppressing his urge to contact her.

Even though he knew he had to let go of the past, Jiang Zhe never forgot that Yu Xiang's original intention in

meeting him was to take advantage of him.

Therefore, he had to refrain from falling into her trap for as long as possible.

Jiang Zhe was an incredibly rational and cautious person, but since reuniting with Yu Xiang, he felt that he was no

longer as rational as before.

Despite knowing that Yu Xiang harbored other intentions, he wanted to see her again. He wanted to watch her

smile, eat, and hear her speak, be it something true or false.

Jiang Zhe reckoned there was definitely a sense of nostalgia when it came to his relationship with Yu Xiang.

He felt that his yearning and attachment to Yu Xiang were not based on her beauty or other personal

characteristics. It was simply his attempt to make amends for himself, or to be more precise, the younger self who

was once timid and cowardly, too afraid to express his feelings to her.

Therefore, Jiang Zhe felt there was nothing wrong with him having this kind of emotion. Everyone has some flaws in

their lives to some extent. What's the harm in making amends with their former selves?

Humans would always find some reasonable excuses for their own actions. A rational person like Jiang Zhe would

also do the same out of human nature.

When Jiang Zhe reunited with Yu Xiang once again, he was overwhelmed with joy.

Jiang Zhe was reveling in this intense feeling of elation, which was so genuine and passionate that he was willing to

take any risks.

However, Yu Xiang seemed quite impatient. “There's something urgent and important that I need to talk to you

about.”

Afraid she would come up with more requests and ruin the pleasant atmosphere they had at the moment, he

quickly handed her the menu and said, “Why don't we order something to eat first? We'll talk as we eat. Food is

everything in life. We still have to eat, no matter how urgent it is, right?”

“But it's really urgent. Shall I just tell you first?”

However, Jiang Zhe interrupted Yu Xiang's words. “There's no hurry, really. We'll discuss this slowly. You didn't even

order anything the last few times we met, so you should order whatever you want today. My treat.”

Seeing that Jiang Zhe was in no hurry, Yu Xiang gradually calmed down and opened the menu to order some food.

Soon, Jiang Zhe discovered that he liked the dishes Yu Xiang ordered, indicating that they had similar food

preferences. That fact itself made him feel even happier.

Halfway through their meal, Yu Xiang could not bear to hold it in any longer. “I think it's better for me to say it now.

Otherwise, just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy and anxious.”

Jiang Zhe felt it was about time he let her say what was on her mind. It would be impolite of him to stall her time

any longer.

“All right, go ahead. I won't stop you.” Jiang Zhe smiled.

“You asked me to look into that partner of Ms. Ouyang for you, right? I managed to find out some information about

her, but not much. Her name is Ding Fei. She's an actress who once won the Best Newcomer Award at the Gold

Dolphin Film Festival.”

“An actress? As far as I know, that person had invested quite a lot of money in Sunshine Corporation. To be precise,

the money was invested into Ouyang Li personally to help her acquire more financial support, thus relieving

Sunshine Corporation of its burden. Honestly, does an actress make that much money? If she is wealthy, why would

she want to work as an actress? Is that just a pastime for her?” Jiang Zhe wondered.

“I'm not sure about that, but she is indeed an actress, and she's currently starring in a movie in which Ms. Ouyang

has invested in. She's not only the lead actress, but she has also invited Huang Zichao and many other A-list actors

to star in it. Unfortunately, that didn't work out in the end, I think. By the way, she will also appear in a variety show

with Huang Zichao sometime later as well.”

Jiang Zhe said nothing in response.

“This is all I know about Ding Fei. I have another, more important matter to tell you too,” Yu Xiang said in a low

voice.

“Go on. What is it?”

“Orchid Club is currently undergoing renovations, and Ms. Ouyang would frequently supervise the work herself

because she takes the project very seriously. This morning, she went to supervise the site again. Since I had

something to discuss with her, I went there as well. When I got there, Ms. Ouyang was on her phone. I overheard

her talking about how the club will reopen once that person turns to ashes, presumably to avenge her father.”

Upon hearing that, Jiang Zhe felt it was a serious matter as well. “Who's going to turn to ashes? Does that mean

someone's going to die soon?”

“I felt it was something very serious when I heard what she said, so I decided to eavesdrop for a while. However,

since the place was undergoing renovations, it was very noisy, and I couldn't hear clearly. I could only catch a bit of

their conversation, and it sounded like they were worried about whether something would be discovered or not.

Also, I heard them mentioning Livingsfill too.”

“Livingsfill? Are you sure you heard it right?”

“I'm sure I did. It's my favorite city, so I wouldn't have misheard it. Not only that, but she also asked if they

managed to sneak in and whether they were trustworthy. I only went in after Ms. Ouyang finished talking on her

phone. From all the bits and pieces that I vaguely heard, I feel like she's discussing with the other person about

harming someone. If it's not about someone dying, would they even mention turning someone into ashes?”

Jiang Zhe quickly stood up and said, “I'm sorry, but I have to go now. I'll tell the manager to put it on my tab later. I

have to leave right away!”

“So soon? Do you have any idea who they intend to harm? Why are you so anxious?” asked Yu Xiang.

“I'm not too sure right now, so I need to discuss this with someone else. I'm going to have to meet my boss since I

believe this matter pertains to him,” said Jiang Zhe.

“Nan Chen? Do you mean Ouyang Li is planning to harm him? But how can they sneak in? Are they planning to

infiltrate your company, or are they opting to take action in Livingsfill? It doesn't make sense, though.”

Jiang Zhe didn't want to divulge too much information about the matter with Yu Xiang.

“Thank you for providing me with all this important information. It means a great deal to me. We'll have dinner

together another time, but I really have to go right now.”

Seeing how anxious Jiang Zhe was, Yu Xiang decided not to make him stay. “All right. You should leave quickly. We'll

meet up again someday.”

“Okay. I'm really sorry about this. I'll buy you a drink next time. Goodbye.”

After stepping out of the restaurant, Jiang Zhe hailed a taxi and rushed toward Nanshi Corporation.

As usual, Nan Chen was still in the office working overtime.

Jiang Zhe did not bother knocking on the door as he barged into Nan Chen's office. “Mr. Chen, I'm afraid something

terrible is about to happen!”

Nan Chen lifted his head and stared at Jiang Zhe. “You're usually calm and collected. Why did you barge in so

recklessly today?”

“I met with Yu Xiang after I asked her to help me find out who's supporting Ouyang Li. She told me it's an actress

called Ding Fei, who is filming a movie with a concept that is similar to ours.”

“Aren't we already aware of all this?” Nan Chen asked.

“Yu Xiang said that she overhead Ouyang Li talking over the phone, in which she mentioned Livingsfill and how once

that person turns to ashes, her club will reopen, and she can avenge her father's death.”

Nan Chen immediately shot to his feet upon hearing Jiang Zhe's words.

“Livingsfill? And turning someone to ashes? Avenging Ouyang Duo's death?” Nan Chen repeated those keywords to

ensure that he hadn't misheard them.

“Yes, exactly. That's what they said. As soon as I heard what she said, I came here right away to report to you,”

replied Jiang Zhe.

“What else did you hear? I need you to recall what she told you!” Nan Chen said anxiously.
