Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

As a singer and actress, Ye Qian's acting skills are undoubtedly excellent, so she can naturally find an excuse to get by. She can't just say that she slept with a man who is the behind-the-scenes boss of the He Group, can she?
"Someone's following you? Do you know who's doing it? Are they alright?"

Wu Zhengyuan was shocked. If Ye Qian were defiled or photographed, the company would suffer huge losses. He had to be careful!
Indeed, Wu Zhengyuan introduced Ye Qian to her husband because she valued Ye Qian's potential and hoped to gain more value for her. She didn't care about anything else, not even her reputation!
"It's alright. When I noticed someone was following me, I went to Longteng Security and hired two female bodyguards to ensure my safety!"

Ye Qian pointed outside, where two female bodyguards with serious expressions stood ready to strike, which startled Wu Zhengyuan.
It turned out to be a female bodyguard from Longteng Security. Such people are generally hard to hire, not to mention the hefty cost of hiring them. Does Ye Qian have a connection with Longteng Security? Or was it someone else's doing?
Wu Zhengyuan's first reaction was that Ye Qian had hooked up with a big shot; otherwise, even with her abilities, she might not have been able to hire such security guards, at most a few male security guards.
Being a female security guard isn't something that can be accomplished with just money. The key is that money alone isn't enough; you also need a certain amount of connections!

Of course, Wu Zhengyuan wouldn't be foolish enough to ask directly. Of course, even if he asked Ye Qian, she might not tell him. It seems he needs to have someone investigate, otherwise, he might accidentally suffer a big setback because of Ye Qian!
Wu Zhengyuan hoped he was wrong, otherwise, it would be really difficult to control Ye Qian in the future, as she was a very good money tree!
"Miss, a message from the company!"

After Wu Zhengyuan left, the captain of the women's team handed the note that Song Cheng had just sent to Ye Qian and respectfully left!
"Brother Zhu is trying to sabotage Song Cheng and Wu Zhengyuan's cooperation? Looks like we'll have to think of a good way to handle this, otherwise, things will get complicated!"

Ye Qian knew her place in Wu Zhengyuan's heart, so Wu Zhengyuan's words earlier that he only cared about work and not her safety did not cause any ripples.

How should I put it? Perhaps it's because it's happened so many times, and I've gotten used to Wu Zhengyuan's behavior over the past two years and become disillusioned with him.

Upon returning to his office, Wu Zhengyuan instructed his assistant to investigate where Ye Qian had gone and who she had met the previous day. This shouldn't be a problem for Warner!
"you sure?"

Wu Zhengyuan stared at his assistant in disbelief at the report in his hand. Ye Qian had indeed gone to a bar, but the answer he received was that she hadn't contacted anyone, had just finished drinking, and left. No one knew where she went after that. It was easy for Warner to investigate its artists, and this was the first time they had gotten such a result!
"Yes, Mr. Wu, the bar owner said it himself, there's no mistake. As for Longteng Security, I'm not afraid to tell you, I can't even get through the door!"

The assistant smiled wryly. Wu Zhengyuan's assistant was indeed of a higher status, but this was relative. Places like bars would definitely give him some face, and even gangs would respect Wu's reputation and would be easy to talk to.
Only a behemoth like Dragon Security doesn't need that. They have connections in Government House, so who would dare mess with them? Perhaps not even some of John Bull's men on the entire Hong Kong Island would dare.
Perhaps only big bosses or core members of the four major Chinese families can go in and find the person in charge? Ordinary people can only register and pay money, and Longteng Security will send out security guards at that price. As for seeing Song Cheng, don't even think about it!

"Longteng Security? Could it be that Ye Qian has gotten in touch with Song Cheng, the head of Longteng Security? Or perhaps Song Cheng has taken a liking to Ye Qian?"
But is that even possible? Song Cheng may not have a wife on the surface, but who knows if someone like him is actually married?

Wu Zhengyuan still couldn't understand it. As for Ye Qian being only after money, she wasn't that kind of person. Otherwise, she would have been a big boss's mistress in Taiwan. Why would she come to Hong Kong to seek development after failing in Taiwan? Impossible!

"I don't know about that, but Mr. Wu, you can't speculate on the boss of Longteng Security. You should be careful what you say!"

The assistant cautiously watched his boss, who was lost in thought. Song Cheng, the boss of Longteng Security, was very well-informed. Anyone who tried to take advantage of him or investigate him never had a good ending. Discussing Song Cheng's private life was very inappropriate and could easily backfire!
"Forget it, we need to be more careful about what we do with Ye Qian in the future. Her contract is about to expire, and she's very famous. She's made a lot of money for the company in the past two years. The boss wants to find a way to keep her. I hadn't thought about it before, but now I need to think of a solution!"

Wu Zhengyuan originally planned to ask Ye Qian to renew her contract in her husband's name. If she did not agree, he would threaten her with the fact that Warner would not allow artists he had cultivated to leave the company, or else he would have to blacklist her. This forced Ye Qian to agree to renew her contract.

After all, Warner's contracts are unfair terms, with artists only receiving a pitiful share and the majority going to Warner. Many artists wouldn't have agreed to renew their contracts if it weren't for Warner's resources, so things are now in jeopardy. If Ye Qian really has connections with a powerful figure, threatening her might backfire and offend an unknown powerful figure.
The company wasn't too afraid. After all, Warner was no small company, nor was it something that ordinary people could handle. What could she do?
If you offend a big shot, you might not even know how you died in Hong Kong. The unknown is what's scary. We must get information about the big shot out of Ye Qian as soon as possible. Otherwise, how can we explain to the big boss if we're afraid to act rashly?

"Hello? Tao Wei? Introduced by the Li family? Let's talk in the office tomorrow morning!"

Just then, Wu Zhengyuan received a call from Tao Wei. The Li family had already made arrangements, saying that regardless of whether the deal went through or not, they would have to meet him!

"Make arrangements to postpone tomorrow morning's meeting!"

"Yes, Mr. Wu!"

As the notice was issued, Ye Qian looked suspiciously at Mr. Wu's assistant who had come to deliver the notice!
"Assistant Qiu, tomorrow's meeting is so important, why did President Wu postpone it? It concerns the TVB singing competition plan!"

"Ms. Ye, Mr. Wu said he needs to meet with a distinguished guest introduced by the Li family, so the meeting will be postponed to the afternoon. Please understand!"

Assistant Qiu sighed helplessly, "You're not even participating in the beginner singing competition, so why are you worrying about this? If there's no meeting, you can sleep in a little longer!"

"okay, got it!"

Now Ye Qian was almost certain that the person Wu Zhengyuan was meeting was the potential collaboration that Brother Zhu had asked her to sabotage. Suddenly, Ye Qian's eyes lit up. Maybe she could give it a try!

"Sister Li, this is how it is. This report will be released during dinner. I plan to visit my mentor's house for dinner tonight!"

"Yes, Miss Ye!"

That evening, Wu Zhengyuan returned home with a heavy heart. She tossed her briefcase onto the sofa, wearily rubbing her eyes. Ye Qian's absence all night had put immense pressure on her! (End of Chapter)
