"Mr. Bo..."

Zhu Wei was so frightened that he didn’t dare to look at the person in front of him. He hurriedly bowed his head and apologized.

"Mr. Bo, I admit my mistake. I shouldn’t have offended Mrs. Bo out of ignorance. Please, let’s let bygones be bygones. Think of me as nothing more than a fart, will you?"

"Tsk..."

The person standing in front of him suddenly chuckled, "Don’t worry, I’m not here to kill you."

A woman’s voice?

Zhu Wei was stunned for a moment, quickly raised his head, and indeed, there was a woman standing in front of him. She was a gentle girl-next-door type and quite beautiful too. However, she wasn’t his type.

He preferred the type like Xia Qingtian, a stunning beauty who left a lasting impression at first sight.

Having just had a brush with death, he didn’t dare to be arrogant at the moment, so he cautiously asked, "May I ask who you are?"

The woman answered, "I’m here to collaborate with you."

Upon hearing these words, Zhu Wei relaxed, and said, "I don’t handle the business matters anymore. I have left everything to a professional manager. If you want to talk business, please talk with him."

"What I want to discuss with you is about Xia Qingtian..." The woman spoke, her face full of mysterious expressions, "Didn’t you take a liking to her? I can help you win her over."

Zhu Wei’s stocky body started shaking again.

Thinking of Xia Qingtian still made him feel a flutter in his heart, but he dared not harbor any thoughts about her.

"Are you crazy? How could I ever consider courting Mrs. Bo? Do you want me to get myself killed?" His face started to turn black as he said, "I think you intend to harm me. Just get lost, I don’t want to waste my time talking with you."

The woman didn’t leave, but whispered something in his ear when he was not paying attention.

Zhu Wei’s eyes widened, "Is what you said true?"

"Of course." The woman nodded, "If you don’t believe me, you can investigate yourself. Although you have just returned to A City and you don’t have any strong network, you have money, and money can make many things happen. It should not be difficult for you to investigate."

Seeing her speaking with such unwavering certainty, Zhu Wei almost fully believed her.

All of a sudden he became interested and gentlemanly opened the car door, making a gesture of invitation, "This is not the place to talk. Let’s find a quiet place to discuss i at length."

The woman nonchalantly got into the car.

Soon, the car drove off from the location.

...

After a few days of effort, Xia Qingtian successfully secured investment from several clients.

But for the company to successfully go public, there was still a significant funding gap.

Because of the economic downturn in recent years, many companies and investors preferred to invest in more conservative projects, instead of taking risks.

Star Entertainment’s current momentum is indeed strong, but its foundation is too weak.

In addition, the greatest assets of an entertainment company are its artists, who are very unstable. Any scandal or image failure could cause huge losses.

If the situation worsens, it could potentially bankrupt the entire company, rendering everyone’s investments worthless.

Investors’ funds are not easy to come by and they would not want to get involved in such a situation easily.

Moreover, Xia Qingtian was not sure if it was her illusion.

Some clients, whom she had been discussing with for a long time and had convinced to consider investments, suddenly toughened up their attitude and rejected her, without even giving her a chance for further discussions and meetings.

Xia Qingtian felt that there was something fishy going on, as if invisible hands were manipulating everything behind the curtains.

She looked into it but couldn’t find anything.

She had not offended anyone and believed nobody would go to this extent to cause harm to her.

Xia Qingtian did not think much about it anymore.

She felt her good luck had run out since attending the business cocktail party.

In the following period, even though she was busy every day, meeting three or four clients, the progress towards going public was still stalled, and even the clients who had already invested, seeing this stagnant situation, started to waver and thought about withdrawing their investments.

She was at her wit’s end.

Just when she was about to pull her hair out due to stress, finally, a company contacted her, willing to invest in her, and the investment amount was not small either.

If she could secure the investment from this company, she would not need to look for other investors.

Xia Qingtian researched the company online with caution.

Soon, she found information about it.

This was a company registered overseas with a huge amount of registered capital. It was very strong, had invested in many companies abroad, and had earned a lot of money from those investments.

With this information, she let go of her doubts.

So, when they invited her for a dinner to discuss things further, she readily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, she started preparing the business plan and documents needed for the meeting with the potential investor, also including the future planning of the company.

To show her sincerity, Xia Qingtian arrived at the agreed restaurant half an hour early.

The investor had already reserved a private room, which offered a lot of privacy and had great soundproofing. Once she arrived, she just mentioned the name and was guided into the room by the waiter.

Half an hour passed, and it was already the agreed time, but the investor had not yet arrived.

Xia Qingtian did not rush him, patiently waiting in the room, for so long that it seemed like flowers could withered from waiting.

Just when she started to suspect that she was being made a fool of, the door to the private room finally opened.

She immediately smiled warmly, quickly got up and looked at the investor, "Hello, I’m Xia Qingtian, you..."

Before she finished speaking, she caught sight of the investor’s face, her warm smile froze on her face, making her expression somewhat unpleasant.

The reason was no other than the investor turned out to be none other than-

Zhu Wei!

Even though Zhu Wei had apologized to her last time, Xia Qingtian still had a poor impression of him and was not at all pleased to see him.

"Why is it you?" Xia Qingtian frowned and asked in a very cold tone.

Zhu Wei was not bothered by her coldness at all, on the contrary, he felt that when she turned cold, she seemed like an ice maiden, which was as beautiful as anything he could imagine.

He truly liked Xia Qingtian.

"Because I am the investor who contacted you." He answered with a beaming smile, "Didn’t I tell you last time at the business cocktail party? If you want to see the company’s successful listing, I can help you."

While speaking, he extended his hand to grab Xia Qingtian’s hand.

Xia Qingtian immediately stepped back, keeping her distance from him.

Seeing Zhu Wei like this, she understood that the lie she told at the business party last time, about her being Mrs. Bo, was probably exposed by now.

Otherwise, judging by his reaction at the business cocktail party, let alone harassing her, he would have run away at the mere sight of her.
