“Wen Nian is awake?” Xue Jiang stealthily opened the door and entered the infirmary.
Despite being labeled an “infirmary,” it more closely resembled a spacious suite. In addition to various medical apparatus, it featured a laboratory and a few lounges.
Xue Jiang carried a few bowls of bird’s nest porridge in his hands. “I’m guessing you must be hungry. Have something light first. I’ve already arranged for the kitchen to prepare it. Is there anything else you’d like to eat?”
The individuals Huang Yue had enlisted weren’t professionals, and the quantity of sedatives they had procured was insufficient. Combining this with Wen Nian’s previous life experience, she instinctively held her breath when sensing danger, preventing her from inhaling too much of the drug.
Observing her visibly improved condition and lack of medical complications, Xue Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. Were anything to happen to her within his territory, Shen Jun might unleash the wrath of the Chuan Liu Clubhouse.
“How did you deal with Wu Gang?” The moment Shen Jun started speaking, Xue Jiang shuddered.
Xue Jiang had already contacted his second uncle. Director Wu may have had a less-than-pristine reputation in the industry, but he possessed a discerning investment eye. This led to numerous business dealings with the Xue family and a close relationship with Xue Jiang’s Second Uncle. Therefore, Xue Jiang’s Second Uncle had rushed over promptly. However, given the involvement of the Shen family and the Zhang family, he had refrained from commenting and brought his men to the hospital first.
Observing Xue Jiang’s silence, Shen Jun had an idea of how they had dealt with Wu Gang.
While Shen Jun’s friends held substantial family backgrounds, they were all young and held little influence within their families. Director Wu, being able to stay on the top floor of the Chuan Liu Clubhouse, indicated an extraordinary status. Xue Jiang likely didn’t dare to provoke him.
“I understand. You don’t need to get involved in this matter,” Shen Jun reassured Xue Jiang, preferring not to make things difficult for him.
However, Shen Jun’s comment sent Xue Jiang into a mild panic. “What are you saying? Are we not close friends anymore?”
“My second uncle came by earlier. This fatty has a close relationship with my second uncle and has been involved in numerous business transactions,” Xue Jiang clarified. “His real name is Wu Gang. In addition to being a director, his family boasts some influence. They’re tied to coal mining, and he ventured into the entertainment industry here.”
Observing Shen Jun’s continued silence, Xue Jiang pressed on, “But don’t worry about it. You’re my brother. I will ensure that no one takes advantage of your girlfriend..”
Wen Nian had only recently regained consciousness. She was aware of being drugged but remained unfamiliar with both of them. Moreover, she had been unconscious during her stay in Director Wu’s room. She had no idea who had abducted her, and the audacity of the crime puzzled her.
Upon hearing the name “Wu Gang,” Wen Nian couldn’t help but shudder. She recognized the man all too well. In her previous life, she had spent a considerable amount of time in his company.
At that time, Wen Nian was less accomplished than the current Huang Yue. Furthermore, because of plastic surgery, she had lost her advantage in terms of looks. She had to rely on connections to get close to Wu Gang. Wu Gang had a penchant for younger women, frequently changing girlfriends, all of them 18 or 19 years old. This not only shielded him from legal repercussions but also provided him with a constant stream of fresh, youthful companions.
Other than women like her who took the initiative to come to him, many others had been raped by Wu Gang. There were also many girls like Wen Nian who had been drugged today. Even the A-list celebrity, Wang Bing, had experienced the same thing.
At that time, Wang Bing had entered Hollywood and had already signed a contract with an internationally renowned director. However, her opponent had reached out to Wu Gang and purchased the video of them having sex, which Wu Gang had secretly recorded. Then, they released the video everywhere online.
Because Wang Bing did not speak up immediately, coupled with the fact that her resources were indeed getting better and better, many netizens felt that she had taken the initiative to offer her body in exchange for resources. Wang Bing’s reputation was completely ruined. In the end, because she could not stand the Internet abuse, she chose to jump down from the company building.
The time in this life overlapped with the time in her previous life. In her previous life, this was the time when Wen Nian was accompanying Wu Gang. Next, she should be acting as the second female lead in a small online drama in Wu Gang’s hands. At that time, Xu Chang had chosen Wang Bing as the female lead for the next movie at the request of Wang Bing’s agent to return the favor.
Seeing that the few of them were silent, Xue Jiang asked, “Shen Jun, tell me what you want to do. Wen Nian, you don’t have to be afraid. We definitely won’t let anything happen to you while you are in the capital. We will make sure that someone takes accountability for what had happened.”
At this moment, Wen Nian already had a plan in mind. She said calmly, “I know it’s difficult for you. I won’t let this matter rest. I’ll deal with Wu Gang myself..”
