The script only mentioned that the male lead’s friend accidentally saw Xiao Zhenyun leaving the club, but it didn’t specify the exact time or where and from what angle he saw him. As for the so-called friend, Xiao Zhenyun only knew his name and had a photo of him. Now, he had no idea where that person was.

 

In short, it was a complete mystery, and it was incredibly frustrating.

 

In order to create a coincidental encounter where Xiao Zhenyun was seen leaving the club by accident, the administrator had been gathering information for the past five days. Based on various clues in the book, they deduced that there was a shift change at the club at 10 PM. The male lead’s friend, who worked there, was likely to have seen Xiao Zhenyun getting into a car from the parking lot at that time.

 

Xiao Nian suggested that Xiao Zhenyun spend twenty to thirty minutes in the parking lot, keeping an eye on all three entrances to ensure that his friend would witness his presence accurately, regardless of whether he arrived early or late for work.

 

Xiao Zhenyun: “…”

 

Xiao Zhenyun: “So, every coincidence you think of is my deliberate plan, huh?”

 

Xiao Nian responded with a cold face, giving him a sarcastic smile from hell.

 

After paying the bill with extra money, Xiao Zhenyun dismissed the waiter and took the elevator alone to the parking lot. He then put on a mask and began his long shopping spree. He strolled along the outer wall of the garage as if he was about to steal a car, passing by his own car three times without getting in, which made Garry, who was unable to move in the backseat, anxious.

 

Soon, the security guards monitoring the club couldn’t stand it anymore and sent someone over, eagerly asking if he needed any assistance. Xiao Zhenyun looked down at the time and nodded, saying casually, “I’m lost. Can’t find my car.”

 

The security guard stiffly turned around and looked at a black car five meters away.

 

Xiao Zhenyun exclaimed in surprise, “So, it was far away in the distance but right in front of my eyes?”

 

Having found the car, Xiao Zhenyun didn’t hurry to get in. Instead, he took out a cigarette and leisurely started smoking, telling the security personnel to go back. He would leave soon.

 

The security personnel didn’t dare to leave and kept a distance, standing guard, afraid that this ‘foolish beauty’ might forget how to open the car door.

 

Xiao Zhenyun smoked two cigarettes in a row until Xiao Nian sent him a message, saying that this plotline in the book had already been marked in red. He found his own behavior quite amusing, shook his head, and got in the car to leave.

 

After the intense and eventful nighttime plot, ‘Xiao Zhenyun’ disappeared from the book for a long time. The next time he would appear would be at the engagement ceremony of the male lead and second male lead.

 

At the ceremony, ‘he’ seemed extremely jealous, watching the handshake between Si Chu and Ye Feiran. He felt so bitter that he ignored everyone’s dissuasion and drank himself into an insanity, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Under the influence of alcohol, he then made a decision that went against his ancestors. He was determined to pursue love regardless of societal pressure and his physical limitations.

 

Anyway, when Xiao Zhenyun heard the administrator narrate this plotline to him, he could only feel exhausted both physically and mentally. Most of his scenes in the book were concentrated during this period, from the engagement ceremony of the male leads to the wedding ceremony, involving various calculations, scheming, and a heavy workload.

 

A few days ago, after leaving the clubhouse, Garry was taken by Xiao Zhenyun to a familiar doctor, leaving behind a bank card. It was a parting of ways, outwardly claiming that Garry had died.

 

A few days later, Xiao Zhenyun learned that there was a minor disturbance at the MP Research Institute. It seemed that a few test subjects had escaped, and only some of them had been recovered. However, the commotion caused was insignificant, like a stone thrown into a lake, creating ripples that quickly faded away.

 

Upon hearing this news, Xiao Zhenyun’s initial reaction was that Si Di had taken action. He also thought that the so-called ‘howling wolf’ couldn’t bite anyone and had been holding back for so long without achieving anything remarkable, only trying to act tough in front of him. The wolf had vowed to avenge his teammates but ended up scratching MP for a moment and then giving up.

 

But it was no wonder that Si Di’s words lacked conviction. On the day of the banquet, the stag ran away after kicking people, creating a Cinderella scene, leading to Si Di resolutely rejecting Ye Feiran’s proposal for union. For the following month, he resembled the long-haired princess in the castle, enduring escalating mental issues, gazing outside the door with eyes that could penetrate through it, waiting for his destined guide to come riding a deer and take him away.

 

There was no prince riding a deer, but there was someone enjoying the misfortune.

 

Without permanent union, Si Di’s shattered spiritual doamin could never be fully restored. He was already struggling to cope with his mental disorders, so he had no time to deal with the MP Research Institute.

 

Regarding this, Xiao Nian, who always paid attention to the dynamics between the two men, said, “Xiao Zhenyun, your behavior is like that kind of green tea that doesn’t want to be with someone but occasionally gives them a sweet taste, making it impossible for them to give up and let go.”

 

Xiao Zhenyun: “…”

 

Interestingly, the current situation was seriously affecting the progress of the plot. Si Di stubbornly refused to unite, and Ye Feiran became the Plan B left behind by the elders, forcibly bound by family ties and morality. Of course, personal emotions were also mixed into it. He couldn’t disregard the safety of his elder brother, whom he had grown up with, and wholeheartedly pursue his own love.

 

As a result, the engagement banquet of the two male leads was indefinitely postponed, and the plot reached a stalemate.

 

Xiao Nian believed that ultimately, to solve the problem, they needed to first deal with the wicked source, Si Di. As he contemplated this, the topic circled back to the idea of going to assassinate Si Di in secret at his home.

 

Xiao Zhenyun couldn’t be bothered with him. After selling off all the MP stocks, he anxiously investigated all his assets, promptly getting rid of any problematic ones, ensuring a clean reputation. In the future, he may, at most, impose some restrictions on personal freedom.

 

It was said that the final attempt at imprisonment failed. After taking the male lead hostage and jumping off a cliff, the kind-hearted little dog, who got rescued, didn’t expose him. This left the fate of ‘Xiao Zhenyun’ in the novel open-ended, with the story only mentioning his disappearance. This way, he only needed to fake his death for a while, reemerge when the entire book’s plot ended, claim to have experienced a great awakening, and decide to turn over a new leaf. This would allow him to break free from the script and continue as the carefree prince of the special realm.

 

Just like that, Xiao Zhenyun, troubled by asset-related issues, went through two months of ups and downs behind closed doors, until the Guild Chairman, Xiao Jingfeng, made a video call and furrowed his brows, asking, “Zhenyun, what are you doing? I heard that you had nothing better to do and personally managed your assets, resulting in a loss of over ten million in just two months?”

 

Xiao Zhenyun: “…”

 

The author has something to say:

 

Xiao Zhenyun: It would be impolite to say anything more.
