Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Harming others does not benefit oneself; digging a hole to bury oneself.

"Looking for me?" Wanxin was surprised.

Indeed, she had worked at GE for a while, and Hodward could be considered her mentor in some sense. But...

"Are you saying you want me to come back to GE?"

"No, what I mean is, I want to start a new company in Hua Country. If you’re interested, we can collaborate."

Wanxin nodded thoughtfully. Looking across Hua Country, there were hardly any private companies specializing in financial fraud investigation, and those that existed were not very well-known.

It was a thankless and even offensive job that few were willing to undertake, yet it was an indispensable presence.

"He has better business skills than I do, why don’t you collaborate with him?" Wanxin glanced at Fu Shihan and asked, looking down.

Hodward laughed and replied. "Compared to that cunning businessman, I prefer a girl like you."

Fu Shihan raised his eyebrows and clinked his wine glass with Hodward’s. "This cunning businessman is still here, you could save those comments for when I’m not around."

He took a sip of red wine, then shifted the conversation back.

"Our wedding date hasn’t been set yet, but we’ll definitely inform you once it’s confirmed."

Hodward: "Great! Looking forward to your good news!"

Wanxin: "..."

Absentmindedly finishing her meal, Wanxin accompanied Fu Shihan to send Hodward back to his hotel. On the way home, she remembered something.

"You know about the thing Shi Yi asked me to do."

"Hmm."

"Isn’t that reality show for artists? Why would they ask me?"

"That’s Shi Yi’s job, I’m not clear about it."

"Do you think I’d believe that?" Wanxin didn’t buy it. "This show was decided in a single statement; I don’t believe Shi Yi would approach me if you hadn’t spoken. Fu Shihan, when you initially pushed for this show, was it to punish Sheng Qian or me?"

"You do have some awareness." Fu Shihan smiled faintly. "Wanwan, have you heard this saying?"

"What?"

"To harm others does no good to oneself, it’s like digging a hole to bury yourself. This hole was dug by yourself, don’t blame others."

Wanxin: "Me??? When have I ever harmed others without benefiting myself? That statement suits you the best!"

She had never seen anyone else who could harm others with such righteous indignation!

"When you make me angry, you should think of the consequences. You should be clear that besides in bed, I have many other ways to make you bow and admit your mistakes."

If she really thought that just because her health was not good, he had no way to deal with her, she was sorely mistaken.

Fu Shihan glanced at the now silent Wanxin, his eyes flickering.

"Trust me, you’ll like that show because I’ve specifically prepared a big surprise for you."

Wanxin: "...You can shut up, I believe your nonsense."

If she weren’t afraid of retaliation, she really wanted to point at his nose and curse: You vile old man, you’re terribly bad.

The car arrived below the building where Wanxin and Mu Suyu lived. Wanxin unbuckled her seatbelt and said goodbye before heading upstairs. Just as she opened her door, she was nearly knocked to the ground by a rushing Mu Suyu.

"Wanwan, you’re back! I missed you so!"

"I missed you too." Wanxin patted her head, smiling as she hugged her into the house.

"Did you see that terrible ex-boyfriend of yours? He came to our house looking for you, he was so fierce!" Thinking of Fu Shihan, Mu Suyu couldn’t help but complain in a low voice. "Super fierce! You have to take revenge for me!"
