Chapter 741 - You Asked About Your Mother (1/2)

“In the past?”

“After becoming my boss, our friends.h.i.+p isn’t as pure as before, of course.” Zeng Zhun smiled briefly.

Luosang understood what he was saying. Friends could tell each other anything without any fear of judgment, but one had to be much more careful with what they said to their boss. “Brother Zeng, I call you that because I don’t think you’re like Jingxi. I used to call you that all the time, too.”

Zeng Zhun nodded his head. “Luosang, are you here to ask me about something?”

“Brother Zeng is a brother, indeed.” Luosang expression turned serious. “I want to know why Yi Jingxi knows about my mother and the fact that I have a brother. Does he have any leads on him?”

Luosang carefully thought about what happened the night before. It had been a long time since her mother had disappeared. There was no way that Yi Jingxi could have found her mother easily, as it had happened nearly twenty years ago. Even Nian Junting might not have been able to find her mother so quickly, and Yi Jingxi had spoken about her younger brother, too.

The only reasonable conclusion was that Yi Jingxi had a few clues.

Zeng Zhun looked at her in shock. Luosang could tell that she was on the right track. “Brother Zeng, are you planning to stick around Yi Jingxi forever? You should start thinking about a plan B for yourself.”

“Are you here to convince me to leave Mr. Yi?” Zeng Zhun was a sensitive and intuitive man. There had been many compet.i.tors who had approached him recently.

Luosang smiled and said, “With your capabilities, I believe that you would have left long ago if you really wanted to.”

Zeng Zhun bit down hard on his cigarette. “No matter what, Yi Jingxi is my old cla.s.smate. We’d been pals for so long that back when it was hard for me to find a job, Jingxi asked me to stick with him. It’s been so many years since…”

“But he’s grown distant from you. He doesn’t trust you anymore,” Luosang went straight to the point. “You’ve always been loyal to him, but he’s become paranoid, volatile. I heard that Cheng Liuyun, a female artist under your company, jumped s.h.i.+ps to your compet.i.tor after you groomed and trained her to become successful. When Yi Jingxi found out about it, he had a terrible fight with you and thought that you shouldn’t have allowed her to break the contract. The truth is that she’s your girlfriend.”

Zeng Zhun was dumbfounded. He looked like he was considering something, “You’ve done your research.”

Luosang shrugged. “You’re in the entertainment industry. It’s no surprise that you would develop something with a celebrity in your company, but you have to think about her position as well. You can stick around since Yi Jingxi is your friend, but you can’t hinder your girlfriend’s career, right?”

Zeng Zhun was silent, his cigarette burning to the end already.
