Xu Zhenyu used to be an infamous man-about-town in Capital city. He knew everyone and anyone and had connections everywhere.
In this world, the real information was not held by those official intelligent agencies, but by those shady characters that permeated the underground scene.
They possessed all sorts of channels and connections and were extremely secretive and discreet.
Xu Zhenyu held the upper hand over most as he was tapped into such underground channels.
So Xu Zhenyu’s wild days 17 years ago were not for nothing.
It was because of the information he had gathered from his shady sources that he realized something was wrong with the Zhang Corporation.
“So I see!”
Wen Xinya took a deep breath. She never expected that even the military had taken notice of the Korean-Chinese Alliance and regarded it with such importance.
The Korean-Chinese Alliance had always been extremely cautious and secretive in their movements but had now accidentally exposed a tiny part of themselves. It appeared that nothing could escape the hands of justice forever.
Xu Zhenyu currently had no idea that he wasn’t facing just one criminal organization, but an extremely expansive and complicated criminal alliance. The roots of this alliance permeated across the world and they were already deeply ingrained among the various governments and business sectors.
Xu Zhenyu continued, “I cannot tell you the details of my mission as it is classified, but I can confirm with you that this criminal organization is extremely powerful, with a very wide reach. Although the Wen Corporation was not that deeply implicated in the entertainment city project, you should still be careful.”
This criminal alliance obviously had its eye on the Wen Corporation. He had especially met up with Wen Xinya today to caution her. With her high intelligence, there was no way those people would be able to do anything to her as long as she was on her guard.
“I understand. Don’t worry!”

After meeting with Xu Zhenyu, Wen Xinya rushed back to the Jiayuan Club.
The military’s interference in the Korean-Chinese Alliance was a huge matter. She and Si Yiyan had worked for many years to perfect Plan S. If the military ended up spooking the Korean-Chinese Alliance, they might undo all their hard work.
After arriving at Jiayuan, Wen Xinya headed straight for Si Yiyan’s office in the VIP Presidential suite at the top floor of the building.
However, she was blocked by a woman at the entrance.
“Miss, the boss is having a meeting now and is not available to receive visitors. Please go over to the visitors’ room to wait.”
The woman looked like a Eurasian in her mid-twenties. Her features were exquisite and her deep brown hair cascaded down her shoulders in shiny, luscious curls. She exuded the charms of an extremely capable and experienced woman. Tall and voluptuous, she had a 34D chest, which Wen Xinya coveted but would never have. She was the epitome of the phrase: face of an angel, figure of the devil. Even Eva was not her match.
Wen Xinya sized her up. “Who are you?”
Who was this woman? Why was she at the entrance of Si Yiyan’s office? What gave her the right to block her way? Didn’t she know who she was?
No one in Jiayuan Club would ever dare to block her like that.
Wen Xinya was obviously very unhappy at this woman’s behavior.
The woman maintained her elegant and professional poise. “I’m An Feiya, the boss’ secretary. I’m in charge of handling the boss’ schedule and daily affairs.”
At this point, An Feiya wasn’t feeling as calm as she looked.
Jiayuan Club was Lucifer’s headquarters in Country Z. An Feiya was well aware of how tight security was here, but this woman was able to easily breach all their security checkpoints and directly come here to find the boss. It was obvious just how much authority this woman had in the club.
As a result, An Feiya was not as foolish as to ask the woman for her identity or whether she had an appointment. She would be inviting trouble if she did.
An Feiya also didn’t dare to exhibit the slightest bit of arrogance.
Wen Xinya raised her brows slightly and asked, “When will this meeting end?”
She was in a pretty foul mood now.
It had been quite a number of days since Wen Xinya last came to Jiayuan to find Si Yiyan, and she had no idea when did he get such a “splendid creature” to be his secretary. Alarm bells were ringing inside her head.
An Feiya smiled sweetly. “I’m sorry, I’m not sure.”
At the same time, An Feiya was rapidly trying to deduce Wen Xinya’s identity.
According to what she knew, the boss was cold and imperious and never showed the slightest inclination toward any female. There were seldom any women around, anyway. So who the hell was this woman with such authority in Jiayuan and what was her relationship with the boss?
Wen Xinya didn’t pursue further but just commanded blandly. “Bring me to the visitors’ room.”
Yes, it was a command!
Her tone made it clear it was a command.
Although An Feiya maintained her perfect smile and kept her manner non-confrontational, Wen Xinya could feel a hint of unfriendliness emanating from her.
Wen Xinya didn’t care whether this woman really didn’t know who she was, or she was just pretending not to. This woman was her man’s subordinate and Wen Xinya had to show her just who was the lady boss around here.
If she was a smart woman, she should know to keep her hands to herself!
“Alright, please follow me.”
A look of displeasure flashed past An Feiya’s face. She now regarded Wen Xinya as a pompous and immature girl who didn’t know her own place. Nevertheless, An Feiya still maintained her courteous manner.
Even so, An Feiya’s eyes glinted knowingly as she raised one brow slightly. But she couldn’t be blamed for thinking so. After all, not just any woman could be by the boss’ side. With his aloof and chilly manner, there was no way An Feiya could have imagined that this girl was the boss’ beloved.
Wen Xinya’s face darkened. “Please inform me when the meeting has ended.” She added for emphasis. “I have something very important to discuss with your boss.”
Wen Xinya was now very sure that this woman had set her sights on her man.
An Feiya smiled. “Alright, may I know how should I address you?”
An Feiya couldn’t help sizing up this lady before her.
Dressed in an elegant, tailored business suit, this lady exuded grace and refinement. Her features were lovely, especially that pair of slanted eyes that sparkled with profound depths.
Anyone could tell with just one look that she came from a wealthy and reputed family and was highly-educated and cultured.
This was no ordinary woman.
Nevertheless, both her looks and figure were still slightly below that of her own. This gave An Feiya a certain sense of self-satisfaction.
“My surname is Wen!”
Wen Xinya glared at her ferociously. The woman’s probing gaze made her extremely unhappy. That flash of superiority in that woman’s eyes made her feel even more vexed.
