Chuzheng’s sinking of cargo worth hundreds of millions has spread among some individuals, causing many to drop their jaws in shock.
They were unclear about the exact amount of the cargo.
But the words ‘hundreds of millions’ and ‘sinking into the sea’ were enough to cause a sensation.
Sheng Min, a daughter not particularly noticeable in the underworld, rapidly came into everyone’s focus.
However, Chuzheng remained calm amid the turmoil, unaffected by the public’s remarks.
She was always accompanied by bodyguards, making it impossible for others to discern her specific circumstances.
“Sheng Min has been missing for so long, with the current situation of the Sheng Family, how does she still have so much money?”
“Didn’t they say Sheng Min never lets her daughter get involved with these things, how did she get involved with Eric then?”
“I heard, you know, that cargo originally belonged to Sheng Ting… After Sheng Min’s incident, he set up his own faction, betraying all loyalties. After all, Sheng Min nurtured him for so many years. The young lady probably hates him to death now, and must have spent a huge sum to swipe the goods from him.”
“What’s that young lady’s name again?”
“Sheng… Sheng Chuzheng.”
“Chuzheng? Is that a girl’s name?”
“What do you mean, it’s the ‘Chu’ from ‘beginning’ and the ‘zheng’ from ‘kite’.”

“Chuzheng?”
These people discussed openly, while the subject of their conversation passed by them with an expressionless face.
This was an abandoned dock.
Many nicely dressed people were standing outside, chatting. Their gathering here late at night was somewhat eerie.
Yachts were moored in front of the dock, and people lined up to board them.
The yachts then took these people away.
As for where, that remained unknown for now.
The bodyguard stood beside Chuzheng, “Miss, we’ve found out, the middleman that man mentioned tonight will also be here.”
Chuzheng nodded.
The line was moving quickly, and soon it was Chuzheng’s turn.
“Please present your invitation.”
“As if she could possibly have an invitation,” a female voice interjected.
Chuzheng glanced sideways to see a girl in a low-cut cocktail dress looking at her, dolled up and with another girl in a red dress.
She recognized the girl in the red dress, Zhuang Yi.
When Zhuang Yi saw Chuzheng, her expression was somewhat strange.
“Sisi, don’t cause trouble,” Zhuang Yi pulled the girl named Sisi.
The two people she had been looking for still hadn’t made contact.
Alive without a trace, dead without a body.
Sheng Ting had even suddenly interrogated her, and though Zhuang Yi had been keeping a low profile recently, thankfully she came prepared, but now she didn’t dare to act rashly.
“What’s the big deal, I didn’t say anything wrong,” Sisi huffed coldly, “How could she possibly have an invitation?”
And not realize what kind of event this was today.
A Sheng Family with nothing, having an invitation?
And because of Sisi’s words, those who were waiting to board the yacht, each previously engrossed in their own conversations, all turned to look.
“Sheng Chuzheng, what are you trying to sneak into today?” Sisi ignored Zhuang Yi’s attempts to stop her, her face with meticulous makeup full of scorn.
Whispers immediately started around them.
“She’s Sheng Chuzheng?”
“I don’t know, I’ve never seen her.”
“She’s really pretty…”
Some, taking advantage of the insufficient light, boldly assessed the young lady standing in front of them.
However, with bodyguards standing by her side, some of the gazes were blocked.
None of them had brought so many bodyguards, but she, on the contrary, brought several with her.
“Why aren’t you speaking? Hmph, you must be hiding some dirty secret, right?” Sisi said with her arms crossed, her tone dripping with sarcasm.
As for this Sisi, the original owner didn’t harbor much hatred towards her.
But Zhuang Yi did not know what kind of illusions she had created for Sisi, she just really scorned the original owner.
As Chuzheng said nothing, Sisi got more and more worked up, “Your Sheng Family is in such a state, and yet you have the nerve to come here. If I were you, I’d just bang my head and die. It’s not like your dad’s alive to protect you from anyone…”
Splash——
Sisi screamed as she fell into the water.
By the time people snapped back to reality, Chuzheng had already retracted her foot, standing gracefully at her original spot, as if the person who had acted just a moment ago wasn’t her at all.
Sisi splashed around in the water, screaming for help.
“Sisi… Hurry up and rescue her!!”
Zhuang Yi knew how to swim, but at this moment, she definitely wouldn’t go into the water and instead yelled to the people nearby.
A young boy who was checking invitations jumped in and rescued Sisi.
Sisi choked on a few mouthfuls of water, but was otherwise unharmed.
Having recovered, Sisi glared furiously at Chuzheng, “Sheng Chuzheng, are you trying to murder me?”
Chuzheng replied indifferently, “You’re too loud.”
The young girl stood at the edge of the light, every movement exuding nobility. Her delicate features subtly hinted at a cool distance, making her unapproachable.
“This young lady of the Sheng Family has quite the temperament,” onlookers whispered among themselves.
“After all, she is still Sheng Min’s daughter; how can she really be so disreputable?”
“Were all the past rumors false?”
“Look at her demeanor now, do you even have to ask? It must be Sheng Min spreading false information to protect his daughter, making her unforeseeable.”
Sisi, drenched all over, was so angered by Chuzheng’s words that her chest heaved dramatically. Wearing a low-cut dress, her soft bosom seemed as though it might leap out at any moment, attracting a great deal of attention.
Sisi, conscious of the stares, blocked her chest irritably and, with Zhuang Yi’s support, stood up.
Just as she was about to argue with Chuzheng, she saw the crowd far away suddenly part.
A tall and handsome man strode over rapidly.
Zhuang Yi’s eyes lit up with joy, and she released Sisi to greet him.
“Brother Ting.”
She latched onto Sheng Ting’s arm, leaning in like a delicate bird.
With the appearance of Sheng Ting, many women’s faces showed infatuated expressions.
Zhuang Yi’s behavior at this moment instantly sparked envy and jealousy among quite a few women.
Sheng Ting, ah!
Even though he had done some questionable things toward the Sheng Family, he was now someone everyone sought to flatter, someone to whom you had to pay compliments upon meeting.
Sheng Ting’s dark eyes stared at Chuzheng; he ignored Zhuang Yi’s action, but he did not push her away either.
“Brother Ting, we just ran into Miss Sheng,” Zhuang Yi volunteered.
Sheng Ting walked up in front of Chuzheng and asked with suspicion, “Who did you come with?”
Without his permission, who would give her an invitation?
Therefore, Sheng Ting felt certain she had come with someone else.
After the last incident, Sheng Ting had people investigate, but they couldn’t trace the source of her funds at all.
And there were the recent changes in her…
Chuzheng: “None of your business.”
Sheng Ting’s expression momentarily darkened. He withdrew the hand Zhuang Yi was holding and reached out to Chuzheng, “Zhenzhen, come with me.”
His tone was not a request.
It was a command.
Chuzheng glanced at Zhuang Yi who had turned pale, biting her lip tightly.
Zhuang Yi’s eyes were slightly red, and when they met Chuzheng’s gaze, they were filled with hatred.
Chuzheng turned away, asking expressionlessly, “Why should I? Who do you think you are?”
So annoying.
One after another, never ending.
And you can’t just get rid of them!
What a hassle!
