Unfortunately, Wu Zhiming's reputation is equally notorious. Like his father, the two have ruined countless pure models in the industry, turning them into their private playthings.
As for Wu Zhiming, he had long been captivated by Xue Wen's charm, but Xue Wen was smart and at the peak of her career, bringing considerable benefits to the company. Therefore, no scandal that could tarnish Xue Wen's reputation could be allowed to occur, and naturally, Wu Zhiming dared not act recklessly.
"Xiao Wen, who is this?" Wu Zhiming's eyes flashed with a sharp gleam behind his glasses, as he fixed his gaze on Lin Mo.
Xue Wen suddenly grabbed Lin Mo's arm, displaying a close intimacy that even allowed Lin Mo to catch a faint scent from her. She smiled and said, "Young Master Wu, I forgot to introduce you. This is my junior, nicknamed Shadow."
"Junior?" Wu Zhiming slightly frowned, feeling a subtle displeasure upon seeing the close manner between Xue Wen and Lin Mo.
Lin Mo, perceptive as always, understood Xue Wen's intentions. Seeing her secretly winking at him, he did not say much.
"My junior and I have a fortunate connection. I didn't expect to meet him on the plane coming to Han Country for a holiday, so I plan to hang out with him since it's been a long time since we last met," Xue Wen said with a charming smile. "Really? If it's been so long, you should catch up. I'll first arrange for you to check in at the hotel. There's a small party tomorrow night hosted by major Han Country entertainment company executives. As our company's top model, you should attend and get to know more people, which will be very beneficial for your future career."
"Alright, I'll definitely go," Xue Wen replied with a smile.
Quickly, under Wu Zhiming's arrangement, the two took a Buick business car to check into a Five-star Hotel named Jiegeng Hotel, located on a bustling street in Tokyo.
"Lina, I thought you were coming alone, so I only reserved one luxury business suite. As for your junior, he will have to stay in a regular suite. You don't mind, do you, Shadow brother?"
Wu Zhiming stood in the hotel lobby, wearing a kind smile as he asked, his gaze falling on Lin Mo.
"I don't mind either way," Lin Mo responded indifferently.
"Hmph, a pauper who doesn't even dare to book a luxury suite himself?" Wu Zhiming sneered inwardly, his gaze filled with contempt.
He merely wanted to gauge Lin Mo's depth. If he were a young master from a prestigious family, he surely wouldn't stay in a cheap room. Yet now, with a regular suite arranged for him, it was evident he wasn't wealthy.
What right does someone like this have to be with Xue Wen?
Wu Zhiming laughed, "That's good, Xue Wen. Let me take you to your room and chat about work. You've been in Han Country for quite some time, and you might need to start preparing for the magazine cover shoot tomorrow."
"No problem, I also want to complete the work as soon as possible," Xue Wen said with a smile, pulling her suitcase along.
The two walked side by side, while Lin Mo followed behind, planning to return to his room to strategize about finding the Spirit Vein in Han Country.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Lin Mo's shoulder.
Lin Mo frowned and turned his head.
He saw two bodyguards dressed in black shirts and trousers, with cold expressions standing behind him. The hand belonged to the right hand of one of the bodyguards.
"Hmm?"
Lin Mo furrowed his sword-like eyebrows.
"Kid, you'd better stay away from Miss Xue, or you'll bring disaster upon yourself. I assume you understand what I mean." The bodyguard looked down at Lin Mo with an extremely arrogant expression.
"Did your master instruct you to tell me this?" Lin Mo's eyes turned icy.
"It doesn't matter who said it. You'd best stay away from Miss Xue, or else, hmm?"
As he spoke, the bodyguard's fingers, like iron hooks, suddenly tightened, attempting to grip Lin Mo's shoulder blade to cause him some pain. However, as soon as he applied force, it felt as if he was pinching an iron board, and Lin Mo remained motionless.
"You dare to threaten me with two small fries like you!"
Lin Mo coldly snorted, instantly striking the two bodyguards with True Yuan. They immediately turned pale, clutching their chests as a trace of blood oozed from the corners of their mouths.
After doing all this, Lin Mo did not linger. He took his room card and went to his room via the elevator.
"That guy is a Martial Artist." The eyes of the two bodyguards showed fear and amazement.
After a while, the elevator on the hotel's first-floor lobby opened, and Wu Zhiming stepped out with a somewhat displeased look.
"Bitch pretending to be pure; this time when you come to Han Country, I will torture you properly, so you know the power of Wu Zhiming," Wu Zhiming muttered lowly, completely shedding his refined and cultured demeanor from before, a gleam of resentment flashing in his eyes.
Accompanying Xue Wen to the room earlier, who knew she wouldn't even let him enter, making various excuses to send him away, left Wu Zhiming in a foul mood.
"Young Master Wu."
"Young Master Wu."
The two bodyguards stood outside the hotel's parked business car, looking pale and awkward.
"What happened to you two? Did you carry out my order to warn that kid?" Wu Zhiming adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and asked.
"Young Master Wu, that kid is not simple, he's a Martial Artist."
One of the bodyguards said with his head lowered.
Wu Zhiming was also taken aback, frowning in surprise, "He's a Martial Artist?"
Now that spiritual energy is reviving, the existence of Martial Artists, Magic Users, and Supermen is no secret to ordinary people.
"So what if he is a Martial Artist? Do I, Wu Zhiming, not know any Martial Artists? Besides, he's young, so even if he's a Martial Artist, he can't be that strong." Wu Zhiming frowned and snorted coldly.
Wu Zhiming said, "If Xue Wen brings that kid to tomorrow night's banquet, I'll make sure to teach him a lesson. Don't think you can swagger around just because you're a Martial Artist. Offending me, Wu Zhiming, you're bound to suffer."
With that, Wu Zhiming got into the car, and the business vehicle quickly drove off from the hotel entrance.
Inside the hotel room.
Lin Mo sat cross-legged on the bed, his Divine Thought spreading out like spider silk. With his current cultivation, he could extend his Divine Thought across a thirty-kilometer radius, but to avoid detection, he limited it to ten kilometers, allowing for precise control of his Divine Thought.
The Divine Thought, like invisible spider silk, spread densely. Soon, Lin Mo saw two men dressed in casual clothes in a luxurious hotel room three kilometers away. These were the two Han Country cultivators he had seen at the airport, but their strength was weak, a whole realm below Lin Mo, and at least two realms inferior in terms of Divine Sense, naturally unable to detect they were being monitored.
In the hotel room.
The two men, dressed in casual wear, sat on the couch in the living room, legs crossed, puffing on expensive Havana cigars.
"Master, that woman is within three kilometers of us. If she goes beyond that range, the mark I left will lose its effect. Should I grab her tonight and have some fun?"
The young man, with a sinister expression, spoke up.
"No need to hurry, we just returned to Han Country. Let's conserve our energy and act tomorrow night. We shouldn't let women delay our big plans," the middle-aged man replied sternly.
Hearing this, the young man showed a slight disappointment on his face but nodded, "I'll follow Master's instructions."
The two then ceased their conversation and sat cross-legged to begin their cultivation.
In a suite of Jiegeng Hotel, Lin Mo withdrew his Divine Thought.
"These two are magic users? Their cultivation technique seems to be from Han Country's cultivation world."
Lin Mo pondered secretly, not in a hurry to act against them, as it seemed they had already set their sights on Xue Wen and would inevitably make a move on her sooner or later.
Putting his thoughts aside, Lin Mo sat cross-legged on the bed and entered a meditation state.
