Chapter 102: Mysterious Organization!!

——I laughed. She is an unprofessional person who can only comment on people’s voices and temperaments not being a match. Does she even know music?
Yan Zijing’s persona in the entertainment industry was a fair-skinned and rich beauty. So, her external image had always been very straightforward, and she refused to ever be bullied. A personality like this would find it easy to attract fans, but she would also have a lot of haters.
Some haters came and said:
——Ever since she debuted, I’ve always said that she feels strange. So what if someone evaluates her badly?
——Yan Zijing’s forever hater comes to report. From today onward, I have decided to become Sister White Feather’s fan. I’m waiting for her to remove her mask!
——Honestly speaking, every time Yan Zijing speaks, it sounds like she is trying to hold back her real voice in her throat. The feeling is remarkably different compared to the airy and holy-sounding dolphin voice she uses when singing.
——The post above is talking about her lip-syncing again. But I’m confused. Being able to sing in a dolphin voice is something unique, and it is impossible for the singer to be buried. If she’s really lip-syncing, who is the one singing for her? Why can’t they debut then? Stop being whimsical and keep asking such common-sense questions just to display your sense of existence.

The comments on the bullet screen were extremely fast-paced and chaotic. They also refreshed very quickly. Basically, no one could read the comments clearly.
It immediately became trending.

At the same time.
In the VIP ward at the hospital.
Yun Zhengyang had woken up. However, he was still lying in bed and resting due to the miraculous doctor’s instruction.
Chu Cichen was currently seated at his bedside. He frowned and said, “You should rest more.”
Yun Zhengyang waved his hands. “How can I rest when I keep thinking about him returning to the country? Cichen, he is on today’s flight and has almost arrived.”
Yun Zhengyang came to Sea City this time firstly to look for the miraculous doctor and secondly, it was because this major character was returning to the country.
Madam Yun, who was beside him, was very anxious. “Who is the one you guys are speaking about? So mysterious. You are already so sick, yet you still won’t inform me about this guy?”
Yun Zhengyang sighed.
Chu Cichen spoke, “Little aunt, uncle-in-law is referring to Dugu Xiao.”
Madam Yun started. “Dugu Xiao? Isn’t he the one who is currently in the limelight? He suddenly rose to fame six years ago by aggressively devouring several financial companies. Are you referring to this Dugu Xiao?”
Yun Zhengyang nodded. “Correct.”
Madam Yun didn’t understand. “However, what does our family have got to do with him? Also, hasn’t he always been overseas during these few years?”
Yun Zhengyang furrowed his brows and explained, “Dugu Xiao’s mother was surnamed Dugu. She is a chinese woman, and their company was named Tongyi Media. You should have some impression of this name, right?”
Madam Yun pondered. “Yes, but I thought they went bankrupt and were eventually bought over by us?”
“Correct.” Yun Zhengyang sighed. “Back then, we bought over the company via legitimate means. After they were bankrupted, the mother-and-son duo went overseas. In the end, the successor of the Aplow Family fell in love with her and forcibly brought her back to his family.
“The families overseas regard one’s lineage very highly. Hence, the people of the Aplow Family treated her as dirt and used all sorts of methods to humiliate her. She once requested help from many people, including our family and the Chu Family. However, our sphere of influence was too far away to do anything. I and your elder sister didn’t save her. After that, we learned that she gave birth to a son named Dugu Xiao, and we didn’t hear anything from her ever again.”
When Yun Zhengyang said this, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and frowned. “Six years ago, Dugu Xiao suddenly rose to fame. In the span of a single night, all the leaders of the Aplow Family died mysteriously and he became the successor. After that, he began a crazy slaughter.”
Madam Yun felt as though she had just heard something incredible. “We are part of modern society, wouldn’t the foreign governments care?”
Yun Zhengyang looked at her. “They did but there was no proof of him killing anyone, so what could they do to him? In addition, after Dugu Xiao gains power, his relationship with the upper echelons of the government is a delicate one. Who could control him? After that, he crushed all the families who didn’t save his mother when she asked for help in the past. The leaders of those families either committed suicide or stepped down from management and gave him their companies…”
Madam Yun finally understood and she involuntarily shuddered. “You mean…after he achieved revenge overseas, he is going to return to the country to continue with his revenge on us?”
Yun Zhengyang nodded. “Correct.”
He rubbed his glabella. “Naturally, this won’t only implicate our families. There are many others as well. In fact, a few major families in the capital will be implicated as well. After all, after you peel off the cocoons between the major families, all of them have a connection!”
Madam Yun bit her lips. “Since that’s the case, what are you afraid of? Even if the sky collapsed, the major families in the capital are much stronger compared to our Yun and Chu Family. We can just let them handle things!”
The Yun Family was a hegemon in Ford City, and the Chu Family was a hegemon in Sea City. Actually, these two families couldn’t even be considered impressive before the few major families in the capital.
Yun Zhengyang frowned. “What I am worried about is actually not these. Cichen, do you know that Dugu Xiao could become the successor of the Aplow Family because he relied on a mysterious organization? He also depended on this organization for his revenge later on…There are many ways to make money, but Dugu Xiao is a mad man. He doesn’t walk on the normal path!”
Mysterious organization…
Chu Cichen’s gaze turned slightly heavy.
Yun Zhengyang continued, “However, Dugu Xiao has a weakness. I heard that he likes the women at his home to wear golden masks and be dressed in long red dresses…”
After hearing this, Chu Cichen abruptly lifted his head as a sharp look of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
He clenched his fists tightly.
He was someone who wouldn’t reveal his emotions easily, but he was actually acting like this now. Yun Zhengyang felt somewhat puzzled and hesitated as he asked, “What’s the matter with you?”
Chu Cichen inhaled deeply. “Nothing.”
Yun Zhengyang continued, “We have to think of a solution to clear up the misunderstanding with him and also think about how to seek help.”
“Understood.”
Chu Cichen stood up. “You should recuperate in peace and just relax. I will take charge of this matter.”
“…Okay.”
After Chu Cichen left, Madam Yun couldn’t help but say to Yun Zhengyang, “Are you seeking protection from the Chu Family? However, their financial power is roughly the same as ours…What solutions can Cichen have?”
Yun Zhengyang sighed. “You don’t understand.”
(How could Chu Cichen be as simple as he looks?!)
–
Outside the ward.
Chu Cichen headed to the exit and Fang Panxia followed him. “Bro Chen, Dugu Xiao’s assistant has indeed contacted me.”
“Hmm.”
An aura enveloped the area around Chu Cichen, and even Fang Panxia could clearly sense the anger he wasn’t able to suppress.
She recalled that after Mr. Yun had spoken about red dresses and golden masks, Chu Cichen became like this. Fang Panxia suddenly asked, “Bro Chen, did Shen Ruojing see the painting I gave you?”
Upon hearing this, Chu Cichen’s gaze was sharp as he looked at her.
Fang Panxia then added, “She just joined a variety show and was wearing a red dress and a golden mask in it. She probably is doing so to gain your favor, but I feel that her actions are a sort of blasphemy to the one you loved…”
