"What’s wrong?"

Seeing the look on Yun Zijin’s face, Lu Yunque lost all interest in his documents.

Yun Zijin turned to look at Lu Yunque, who had come up behind her, and handed him her phone.

"Take a look."

Yun Zijin wasn’t afraid of Lu Yunque knowing she was investigating someone. After all, Feng Chenchen had been the one to give her a hard time first.

If Feng Chenchen hadn’t provoked her again and again, Yun Zijin wouldn’t even know who the hell she was.

Lu Yunque took Yun Zijin’s phone. As he looked down at the file she had already opened, his expression grew stranger and stranger.

There was nothing unusual about Feng Chenchen’s background, but after she finished her college entrance exams, she was like a completely different person.

Or rather, it was as if a switch had been flipped. She started stone gambling and frequenting antique markets.

Every time people thought she was about to fail, things would take an unexpected turn.

However, Yun Zijin never paid attention to the stone gambling or antique markets, so she hadn’t heard the news and naturally had no idea who this Feng Chenchen was.

But... this series of moves Feng Chenchen had made was definitely not something a normal person could pull off.

Her actions were as if she already knew the outcome in advance, which was why she stuck to her choices even when no one else was optimistic.

"There’s something wrong with this Feng Chenchen."

Lu Yunque had reached this conclusion just from reading the file, without any prompting from Yun Zijin.

"Of course I know. The problem is, we have no proof.

And I don’t understand why she’s imitating my every word and action."

It wasn’t just her clothes; she even hired the same number of bodyguards.

Fortunately, while Feng Chenchen had made a fortune from stone gambling and finding antique treasures, she couldn’t afford to lavishly copy every aspect of Yun Zijin’s life. As it was, the mere sight of Feng Chenchen was enough to make Yun Zijin so repulsed she felt she could throw up last night’s dinner.

"Whatever her goal is, I will absolutely not let her succeed!"

The thought of this Feng Chenchen daring to imitate Yun Zijin made Lu Yunque feel deeply unsettled.

"I’ve already warned her. If she remains unrepentant, then I’ll have to take some measures myself."

’The only reason Feng Chenchen dares to act this way is because she has the Feng Family backing her. If the Feng Family were gone, we’ll see how arrogant she’d dare to be.’

However, unless it was a last resort, Yun Zijin didn’t want to make a move against the Feng family’s company. After all, taking down a company required not just manpower and resources, but also a great deal of money.

She had already poured a lot of money into taking down the Xia family’s company. She wondered when Situ Wenze would be able to turn the company’s losses into profits so she could finally receive her first dividend.

"Send me a copy of this file. I’ll have someone else verify it."

Although Lu Yunque trusted Yun Zijin one hundred percent not to deceive him, out of habit, he would still have someone double-check the authenticity of the information.

However, Lu Yunque didn’t hide from Yun Zijin the fact that he needed to verify it.

"Okay."

After speaking, Yun Zijin took back her phone, tapped it a few times, and forwarded the email from Mei Lin to Lu Yunque’s inbox.

"Sent. Check your inbox."

Lu Yunque opened his laptop, confirmed he’d received the email, and then forwarded it to Mo Bin, telling him to find someone to verify it.

On the other end, Mo Bin replied quickly.

"We should have news in a couple of days. In the meantime, be careful not to meet with this Feng Chenchen alone. I have a feeling her intentions aren’t simple."

The thought of Feng Chenchen constantly imitating Yun Zijin was particularly unsettling to Lu Yunque.

Yun Zijin nodded. Although she was also disgusted by it, she wasn’t too worried about her personal safety.

After all, she didn’t believe anyone could get past Zero One and his team to harm her.

With the matter of Feng Chenchen dealt with for now, Lu Yunque could finally settle down and work on the documents he’d set aside earlier.

At 3 PM, Yun Zijin received a call from Gao Mi.

Ever since receiving the thirty-million-yuan investment from Yun Zijin, Gao Mi had been working tirelessly to assemble a film crew.

But besides finalizing a time with Yun Zijin to observe the auditions, Gao Mi also mentioned something else. After receiving her thirty-million investment, someone else had suddenly contacted him, also wanting to invest.

Gao Mi had just accepted Yun Zijin’s thirty million and wasn’t short on cash for the time being, so he didn’t agree right away.

For some reason, he decided to tell Yun Zijin about it and ask for her opinion.

Even if Gao Mi was a bit old-fashioned, no one who survived in the entertainment industry was simple.

When someone suddenly offered to invest out of the blue, Gao Mi’s gut told him something was wrong.

But Gao Mi was sure he didn’t know this person who was so eager to invest, which was why he wanted to talk to Yun Zijin about it.

If Yun Zijin could guarantee there would be no shortage of funds for the crew later on, then he wouldn’t need to take on any more investors.

After all, thirty million yuan was a tight budget for shooting a good series. If he wanted to strive for perfection with the props, he would need as much investment as he could get.

Hearing Gao Mi’s words, a thought flashed through Yun Zijin’s mind. "Director Gao, could you tell me the name of the person who wants to invest?"

"She’s a young woman, I think her name is... Feng... Chenchen. Yes, that’s the name."

Gao Mi recalled for a moment before finally giving Yun Zijin the answer.

’Feng Chenchen again!’

"Alright. You can ignore Feng Chenchen’s investment offer. Just let me know if you run out of money.

As for the actor auditions, how does this Sunday work for you?"

’She might have classes from Monday to Friday, and this Saturday, the Wangyou Milk Tea Shop is having an event. She couldn’t possibly let Qin Sitong face it alone. By that calculation, Sunday was the only free day she had this week.’

"That works! I’ll send out the notice then. This Sunday from 9 AM to 9 PM, with a two-hour break from 12 PM to 2 PM. Does that schedule work for you?"

"Yes. Send me the address for the audition."

"Right away!"

With that, Gao Mi and Yun Zijin hung up. Gao Mi immediately sent the audition address to Yun Zijin.

Yun Zijin replied with a "Got it" and paid it no more mind.

"What was that about? I think I heard you say ’audition.’ Isn’t that something for film and television productions? Are you planning to break into the entertainment industry?"

Lu Yunque thought the idea was a little crazy.

’The entertainment industry is no place to be.’

"Of course not. I happened to invest in a series. Since it’s my first time investing in this area, I’m just going to observe the auditions. Call it a new life experience.

If you’re interested, you can come with me."

Of course, Yun Zijin had no intention of entering the entertainment industry. Even if she were to get involved, it would only be as an investor.

"Alright. I’ll check my schedule. If I’m free, I’ll go with you."

How could Lu Yunque possibly feel at ease letting Yun Zijin enter the cesspool of the entertainment industry alone? Even if it was just to observe an audition, he was completely uneasy.
