“Mr. Shen, it really is you! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.” Fu Nansheng immediately greeted him warmly.
Shen Zhou glanced at Shen Ke, who touched his nose.
These nosy people!
Lu Mil s gaze fell on Ming Jing and she asked coquettishly, “Mr. Shen, who is this pretty girl? I’ve never seen her before.”
Fu Nansheng’s gaze also landed on Ming Jing. Up close, her ethereal demeanor complemented the silver moon behind her. It seemed as if she would ride the wind and disappear any moment.
What’s more surprising was that this beautiful girl had a strong personality. She didn’t even give them a single glance, treating them as if they were air. And what was even more astonishing was that she walked shoulder to shoulder with Shen Zhou.
This was too incredible. Even he didn’t dare to walk side by side with Shen Zhou. Where did this girl come from, and did she really win over Shen Zhou’s heart?
Shen Zhou stood on the steps, looking down on them dismissively, “Do you need something?”
Apparently, he didn’t want to explain too much and didn’t think it was necessary to explain to them.
Lu Mi chuckled and saw Fu Nansheng gazing at the girl, she pinched his arm secretly. Fu Nansheng came to his senses and quickly said, “No, it’s just that we have long admired Mr. Shen and meeting you today is our great honor.”
Shen Zhou nodded, “Make way.”
The smile on Fu Nansheng’s face froze, as he was blocking the stairway, hindering Shen Zhou from descending.
Fu Nansheng awkwardly stepped back, allowing Shen Zhou and the beautiful girl to walk downstairs and past him. Shen Ke and another young man followed them.
Fu Nansheng tried to catch up subconsciously: “Mr. Shen…”.
Shen Zhou didn’t stop, and the group leisurely walked away.
Fu Nansheng sighed, ‘Mr. Shen is just as hard to approach as the rumors say.”
“Isn’t that normal? Someone at Mr. Shen’s level wouldn’t casually chat with just anyone. He would be exhausted if he did,” Lu Mi remarked.
The pair then noticed that Zhu Wentao and Zhou Ling had been standing still as if they were statues.
Fu Nansheng found it strange: “Mr. Zhu, weren’t you eager to get close to Mr. Shen? You finally had a chance to meet him, but you stayed mute? What a wasted opportunity.”
Zhou Ling nudged Zhu Wentao, bringing him back to his senses. That girl had managed to get close to Shen Zhou without anyone knowing, not even a
whisper had been leaked.
Lu Mi observed Zhu Wentao’s reaction. She was careful and cautious by nature and sensed that something was off. Did he recognize the girl with Shen Zhou?
Lu Mi had paid attention to the news about Zhu family’s real and fake heiress, and there were some paparazzi photos online. Although they were later deleted, she remembered carefully and thought they looked quite similar.
Could that girl be Zhu Wentao’s daughter?
“Mr. Zhu, why hide something so wonderful from us? Don’t you think of us as your own?” Lu Mi probed tentatively.
As expected, Zhu Wentao’s expression changed, and he looked at her sharply.
Fu Nansheng was utterly confused, “What are you two playing at?! Is there something I don’t know?”
Lu Mi said with a graceful smile, “No wonder Mr. Zhu was so calm earlier. It turns out you already had an ace in hand. It’s all thanks to your wonderful daughter.”
Fu Nansheng was even more puzzled. “What are you talking about?”
Lu Mi looped her arm through Fu Nansheng’s: “Did you get a good look at the girl next to Mr. Shen just now?”
Fu Nansheng nodded, “She’s too beautiful. I didn’t expect Mr. Shen to be into this type. But isn’t she a bit too young?”
He wanted to say ‘an old cow eating tender grass’, but considering Shen Zhou’s worth, even fertilized eggs would want to marry him.
“Of course, Mr. Zhu is so talented and handsome, his daughter would naturally be outstanding too.”
Fu Nansheng finally understood and looked at Zhu Wentao incredulously, “That girl is your daughter? Why didn’t you say anything sooner? Turns out you’ve already climbed the high branch. No wonder you were unfazed when you saw Shen Zhou.”
Zhu Wentao pursed his lips, saying solemnly, “I really didn’t know about this.”
Fu Nansheng pretended to believe him: “You must be quite delighted to see me fawning over Shen Zhou. Mr. Zhu, you’re so calculating, hmph.”
Lu Mi winked at him, and Fu Nansheng coughed, realizing he couldn’t afford to turn against Zhu Wentao. His daughter got close to Shen Zhou, which meant Zhu Wentao might gain Shen Zhou’s support.
“Ahem, it seems that Mr. Zhu doesn’t know his daughter very well. You’re not a very responsible father. You should spend more time with your child when you have the chance.” He glanced over Zhou Ling’s face as he finished his sentence..
