Chapter 562: Actually, She Is Not a Woman

~8 min read 1,494 words

"You, who exactly are you? You, what do you want to do?" Hu Xing stared at Shi Youxuan with eyes full of vigilance; her earlier arrogance vanished in an instant.

Originally, she was the one in control, but before she knew it, she had become the one on the defensive.

Shi Youxuan's aura was fully unleashed; she didn't speak, just smiled, which put immense pressure on Hu Xing.

She prepared to slip away.

Just as Hu Xing turned around, Shi Youxuan barked, "Stop right there. What do you think this place is? Do you think you can come and go as you please?"

Jian Yixin and her husband admired Shi Youxuan; they admired her to no end.

This woman was simply too cool, wasn't she?

The once overbearing Hu Xing was as docile as a cat in front of her.

Shi Youxuan told her to stop, and she truly didn't dare to move another inch!

Shi Youxuan paced over to Hu Xing and suddenly softened her voice: "Shall we talk?"

"Fine, you're the boss, I'll listen to everything you say."

……

Small conference room.

Several people sat down, and Shi Youxuan got straight to the point: "How do you and Sheng Yukai communicate? How can I find him?"

Hu Xing said, "Who is Sheng Yukai?"

In truth, Hu Xing could roughly guess who Shi Youxuan was talking about, but she didn't know her boss's name, so asking like this wasn't wrong.

Shi Youxuan smiled charmingly: "I'll warn you one last time, it's best not to play games in front of me. When I'm in a bad mood, I like to wander around, and I might just wander over to Kaoshan Village at any time..."

"I'll talk, I'll tell you everything."

Hu Xing confessed that the initial "chance encounter" with Sheng Zerong at the restaurant, the drugging and booking of the room, and coming to the company to cause trouble today were indeed instigated by someone.

But she didn't know that person's name, nor did she know where he lived or what he did for a living.

That person was very mysterious and never spoke about his own affairs, and every time the two met, it was in the same place—a private room in a nightclub.

Hu Xing was a nightclub dancer who performed pole dancing on stage every night; she was often harassed by customers, but to earn money, she had to swallow her pride.

Once, when she was being harassed by a customer again, the man helped her out of the situation and even paid for her time to keep him company while he drank.

The man was generous with his money, tipping her half a month's income at once, and he didn't get handsy; he just drank and treated her with respect.

Hu Xing had worked in nightclubs for a long time and had seen generous customers, but she had never been treated with respect.

She felt respect and equality from that man, so when a customer asked for her again and asked if she wanted to earn more money?

She agreed almost without hesitation.

The last plan succeeded, and the man gave her a large sum of money.

This time, when the man found her again and asked her to come to the company to cause trouble, she agreed readily as well!

Shi Youxuan asked Hu Xing about the time and place she met Sheng Yukai, then smiled at her slightly: "Miss Hu, I'll have to trouble you to stay at the company for half a day and take us to meet him tonight. You won't object to that, will you?"

Hu Xing: "Let me go, please, I beg you to let me go. I promise I won't come to cause you trouble again, okay? I can't go see him, I don't have the face to go."

Shi Youxuan said: "Fine, if you don't want to take us, then you can only go to the police station to explain everything clearly, and then they will send you back to your hometown for free..."

"No, no, I'll take you, I'll take you, okay?"

Hu Xing was taken by a Security Guard to an empty office to be kept under guard, waiting for the time to go see Sheng Yukai.

Sheng Yukai's time in prison wasn't wasted; he was much smarter than before.

He didn't leave Hu Xing any contact information, choosing instead to meet in a place with a complex environment like a nightclub.

Nightclubs usually have back doors and side doors.

Some even have secret passages, all for the sake of escaping easily when being inspected.

If Hu Xing didn't show up on time, or if suspicious people appeared, they might not even get to see Sheng Yukai before he ran away!

Jian Yixin asked: "Xuanxuan, how did you know that woman's name? How did you investigate it?"

Shi Youxuan smiled: "I didn't investigate it; Hanyu found it."

"Thank you both, Xuanxuan, I don't know what to say, thank you."

Jian Yixin was very grateful to the couple Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan; she only wanted to keep them from getting involved, yet she lacked the ability to solve the problem herself.

Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan always helped them at the most critical moments.

And during the time Sheng Hanyu was missing, only Shi Youxuan had braved the sea while heavily pregnant to look for him, while she hadn't followed because of her mother's opposition... The more she thought about it, the more guilty she felt, and tears streamed down her face.

"What are you doing? There are still so many things to do later, and you have time to shed tears?"

Shi Youxuan shoved a box of tissues into her arms, her expression one of utter disdain.

She pulled out a few tissues to wipe her tears, feeling quite embarrassed herself.

Why cry?

What was there to cry about?

Aside from unavoidable factors, when adults shed tears to vent their emotions, it is sometimes also a sign of incompetence!

Jian Yixin stopped crying; she would keep this favor in her heart and remember it well.

If there was a future, she would repay it slowly.

Jian Yixin changed the subject: "Xuanxuan, what dirt do you have on that woman?"

Shi Youxuan smiled with her eyes curved, her gaze drifting toward Sheng Zerong's position with ill intent: "You two had better not know, right? It's better for both of you."

Jian Yixin, Sheng Zerong:...

The less she knew, the more she wanted to know.

Jian Yixin grabbed Shi Youxuan's arm and urged: "Tell me, tell me, don't keep me in suspense."

She said: "I think you'd better forget it. If you find out, you will definitely regret it. It's better not to ask; it's for your own good."

"Tell me, tell me, Shi Youxuan, you're going to drive me crazy."

Sheng Zerong was originally not interested in Hu Xing's secret, but seeing his wife so anxious, he also spoke up for her: "Sister-in-law, just tell her, look how anxious you've made her."

"Fine."

Shi Youxuan said: "This is something you two requested yourselves, no regrets allowed."

"No regrets, hurry up and say it."

Shi Youxuan: "Hu Xing is a man; his family doesn't know about his sex reassignment surgery."

Jian Yixin:...

Sheng Zerong: "Ugh, ugh—" He dry-heaved on the spot.

"I said I wouldn't say it, but you two insisted that I do. Regret it now?" Shi Youxuan said righteously.

That's right, they certainly did regret it.

As long as Sheng Zerong thought about how he had once, without knowing, been with a man... he couldn't help but want to vomit!

Jian Yixin, on the other hand, went to ask Hu Xing about some private matters, and she was still quite happy after returning.

She had originally thought her car had been stolen for a joyride, but it turned out it had only been used for a photo shoot and hadn't actually been driven at all; this could be considered an unexpected joy!

In the afternoon.

Hu Xing was brought to the vicinity of the nightclub.

Shi Youxuan instructed: "You are going to see that person now, remember not to reveal any flaws."

"Mm."

Hu Xing agreed and got out of the car, walking toward the nightclub with a graceful gait in her sky-high heels.

It was not yet business hours, so there were no customers in the shop, only a few waiters who had arrived early to do cleaning work.

"Yo, Sister Xing is here so early today?" The Security Guard greeted Hu Xing with a cheeky grin.

"Has the guest for private room number one arrived yet?"

The Security Guard teased: "That big benefactor of yours? He hasn't come yet. Don't you worry, the moment he arrives, I won't do anything else; the first thing I'll do is bring him over to see you."

"Good, don't forget about private room number one, I'll go in first..."
