The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise-Novel2

Chapter 455: There Is A Pool Of Blood On His Bed

Mu Changqing had been a businessman for a long time and he finally realized something after he got sick.

He was certain that Fu Zhi was Pure Feather, and he was also confident that they had messed with the wrong person.

However, Mu Chenxi still had yet to realize the gravity of the situation. To comfort her father, she said, “There’s no need to get so angry, dad. Yes, Fu Zhi has become famous, but it’s all because of Pure Feather. Think about it, dad. Why would she say she’s Pure Feather? It’s because she’s vain.”

Mrs. Mu pressed her lip and added, “But that girl doesn’t seem like that kind of person to me. Besides, her reputation is pretty good on the internet, so I don’t see any need for her to impersonate Pure Feather.”

“You don’t know, mom. She’s the greediest person I’ve ever seen in my life!”

Sitting on the bed, Mu Changqing let out a sigh, “The Fu Corporation hasn’t made any statement about her claim yet, so has it ever crossed your mind that Fu Zhi might be Pure Feather?”

“The Fu Corporation has to take care of many things, so it’s normal for them to overlook something trivial like this. However, justice has a long arm, and I’m confident that the Fu Corporation will do something about her sooner or later. If I have known you would believe in Fu Zhi’s bullsh*t and believe that she’s Pure Feather, I would’ve impersonated as Pure Feather myself and none of these would have happened.”

Mu Changqing covered his chest with his hand and replied, “Alright, you go out first. I need some time for myself.”

There was nothing he could do now. She was his daughter, and that was the fact that could never change.

Before Mu Chenxi went away, she said, “I’ve made up my mind, dad. If the Fu Corporation still refuses to step forward and give us a clear explanation, I will publish a post on Weibo tonight and tell everyone that I’m Pure Feather! In this way, nobody will be able to take advantage of Pure Feather!”

Mu Changqing did not know what he should say.

Mu Changqing went back home afterward.

Mu Chenxi was not joking at all. In her perspective, both Fu Zhi and she were pretty girls. They were enemies, and they could not exist together in the entertainment industry.

As such, Mu Chenxi had been waiting for the statement from the Fu Corporation once she got home.

However, there was no movement from the Fu Corporation even after she had waited for a few hours. It was almost 7 o’clock at night, and Mu Chenxi was itching to snatch the name “Pure Feather” from Fu Zhi.

She texted Xu Tongtong to discuss her plan. By the time they had finished their conversation, it was already 7:30 pm. Just when Mu Chenxi was about to make a draft, Xu Tongtong’s voice erupted from the other side of the line, “It’s here! Both the Fu Corporation and Pure Feather have released a statement on Weibo. Chenxi, hurry up and check it out. Let’s what they say about Fu Zhi impersonating as Pure Feather.”

Mu Chenxi’s heart leaped into her throat when she heard Xu Tongtong’s voice. At the same time, Mu Changqing, who was sitting on a couch not far away, put the script in his hand away and listened.

Although he knew that nothing would change, he still hoped that a miracle would happen.

After all, the Mu Family had completely made Fu Zhi their enemy. Once it was confirmed that Fu Zhi was Pure Feather, they would never be to get the adaptation right of Red Sun anymore.

Mu Chenxi opened up her Weibo, and at the top of the page was the post from the Fu Corporation. It had been 2 months since the last time the Fu Corporation had posted something on Weibo.

[First, we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for liking Master Pure Feather’s work. However, we sincerely hope that the public could stop prying into Master Pure Feather’s personal life and don’t be misled by those with an ulterior motive. She needs some personal space so that she could bring more wonderful works to everyone. Master Pure Feather will update everyone regardings the issues about the adaptation of the movie on both her Weibo accounts. Let’s look forward to the adaptation of “Red Sun”, thank you!]

The post was forward by both Fu Zhi and Pure Feather.

Mu Chenxi felt as if her soul had ascended from her body after she read the statement from the Fu Corporation.

It turned out that Fu Zhi was not lying at all. She was Pure Feather, and it was proven by the Fu Corporation.

Mu Chenxi scrunched the paper in her hand and threw it on the floor.

Her chest was heaving up and down heavily, and even the paper was seemingly laughing at her.

But why? Why was it that every good thing in this world only happened to Fu Zhi?

When Mrs. Mu saw the statement, she lamented, “She’s indeed a good girl. Would a good girl like her frame Chuwan and Chuliang?”

Nobody replied to her.

Gritting his teeth, Mr. Mu looked at Mu Chenxi and hissed, “Look what you’ve done. You’re the one who wanted to buy the ghostwriters. You’re the one who wanted to hold the gathering, and you’re the one who said we’re going to donate 100 million yuan to the children in the mountains. Our company has exhausted all of our circulating funds, and we can’t even produce the New Year’s Eve film, let alone fighting with Fu Zhi!”

Mu Chenxi snarled back, “Why didn’t you stop me, then? Huh? If you’ve stopped me, none of these would have happened!”

“How dare you shout back at me” Mu Changqing smacked the table hard in exasperation, “I must’ve spoiled you too much. It’s all your fault that the Mu Corporation is in its current shape. Get the hell back to your room. I don’t want to see you anymore!”

Seeing that Mu Changqing was going to beat her, Mu Chenxi did not dare to say anything and went back to her room.

At the same time, in the Lu Mansion.

It was in the middle of the night.

A spell of hard coughing could be heard from the washroom. When Mama Zhang went into the room, she saw a pool of blood on the bed and her heart leaped into her throat.

She immediately went to smack the door as she said, “Young Master Ye Jiu, can you hear me? Are you not feeling well? I see that there’s a pool of blood on your bed. Can you open the door now?”

However, Ye Jiu paid her no mind. The spell of coughing in the washroom was getting more and more intense, and Mama Zhang’s heart was pumping faster and faster. Just when she was about to go and tell Xu Wei, the door of the washroom was opened from the inside.

Ye Jiu emerged from the washroom and his face was ashen pale. Mama Zhang was stunned, and it took her quite a while to find her voice back and asked, “Are, are you alright?”

“Yes. I’m alright. It’s just a flu.”

“But there’s blood on the bed…”

“I don’t know whose blood is it,” Ye Jiu said as he wiped his face with a towel, “Fu Zhi slept in my room yesterday night, so I guess it should be hers.”

Mama Zhang recalled that Fu Zhi was on her period. However, she looked at the bed again and she did not know why she could not shake the strange feeling that was tugging in her heart away. “If that’s the case, then I will bring the sheets down to wash them. Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Yeah. Don’t worry about me,” Ye Jiu smiled. As Mama Zhang looked at him doubtfully, he continued, “Maybe it’s the side effect of me selling blood to raise Fu Zhi when I was a kid.”

Mama Zhang let out a sigh of relief after hearing what Ye Jiu had said. Since he was still able to joke with her, she surmised that he was fine. As such, she offered him a smile in return and said, “Then I will make a chicken soup for you tomorrow.”

After she had changed the sheets, she went out of the room. She did not bump into anyone as she went downstairs.

Ye Jiu sat on the bed for a long while. Suddenly, he remembered something and he opened up his WeChat.

The person he was chatting with was supposed to be the head of a research institute in a foreign country, as that person’s avatar was the logo of the International Crime Unit.

There was nothing much in their conversation. That person had been asking when Ye Jiu was coming to their research institute.

Ye Jiu laid on his bed for a long while, and then, as if he finally made up his mind, he sprang up from his bed and replied, [Fu Zhi will go to Myanmar at the end of the month, you send someone to pick me up.]

[It’s too late. If your body organs continue to deteriorate, you might not be able to survive until next year. Besides, it’s hard to say for sure that we will be able to conduct in vivo research on you and find the faulty DNA sequences to save Ye Qi and the others in the next year as well.

[And initially, we agreed to start the study in September, but it’s December now. You’ve broken your promise more than once, and we have plenty of reasons to believe that you have regretted your decision.

[That said, you’ve to be clear on one thing. You have the worst health signs amongst the test subjects and you’re destined to die before them. The process of living research is painful and will speed up your death, but once it succeeds, Ye Qi and the others will live in this world instead of you. You have been around Fu Zhi for so long, has Fu Zhi not taught you the meaning of the word great selflessness?]
