Before long, the car started shaking again.

This time, it lasted a little longer than before, but only slightly. It was Ding Muchen's first time, and she couldn't endure being ravaged for so long.

After this ordeal, she no longer dared to tease the man before her.

He's too savage!

As the rain weakened, the tow truck from the traffic department arrived. After paying the towing fee, Sun Dasheng drove Ding Muchen all the way home.

She didn't dare let this man, who had just become hers, inside. If she did, she would face an endless barrage of questions from her parents.

After dropping her off, Sun Dasheng drove back to Hengdian. He also brought back some snacks that the three girls loved, which were only available in Shanghai City.

「Hengdian. A five-star hotel. The presidential suite.」

After finishing work for the day, the three young women sneaked into the room. They were greeted by a room full of snacks, and the fatigue from their long day instantly vanished.

"Uncle, did you drive all the way back to Shanghai City just to buy these?" Li Sili asked as she ate.

"Yeah. Seeing how hard you girls work, this is a reward from your uncle."

"Wow! Thank you, Uncle! I love these!"

"Si Han, Yu Qing, you two should eat too," Li Sili called out to her two best friends.

Sun Dasheng could tell from the expressions on their faces that something was wrong.

"What's the matter? Did something happen today?"

Li Sili tilted her head and looked at them. Since she had been shooting short videos separately from them, she didn't know what had happened to the other two during the day.

"It's nothing serious, just some rumors going around on set," Fang Sihan, always straightforward, blurted out.

The moment she spoke, Sun Dasheng understood the situation. He pondered for a moment. "You're all staying here with me, and with so many prying eyes, it's easy to attract gossip. Of course, as a man, I'm not afraid of such things, but you young ladies should be careful."

He made a phone call, then said to them, "I've booked an executive suite for each of you. You can move over later."

Only then did Li Sili understand what had happened. She pouted. "Some people just love to stir up trouble and gossip about others."

But no matter how annoyed she was, she had to listen to her uncle.

After getting the three of them settled, Sun Dasheng called Sun Dacheng over.

"What's wrong, boss?"

Sun Dasheng briefly explained the situation.

Sun Dacheng's expression immediately turned serious. "Director Sun, don't worry. I'll go and investigate right away. I'll find out who has the big mouth spreading these rumors, and as soon as we identify them, we'll fire them to set an example."

"Alright. Just investigate discreetly. Don't cause a panic."

"I guarantee I'll get it done!" Sun Dacheng left, fuming.

He wanted to know who was so audacious as to spread rumors about the big boss. Of course, what angered him more was the thought that this was an attempt to undermine him and block his path to promotion.

After dealing with these vexing matters, night fell and his stomach began to rumble. He called hotel service to order dinner.

I guess I'll be eating alone tonight.

While waiting for his meal, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and answered. "What's wrong? Is there something else?"

The caller was Ding Muchen, whom he had parted ways with just a short while ago.

Her voice was urgent. "Are you still in Hengdian?"

"Yes, I am. What happened? Don't panic, just tell me slowly."

Hearing the urgency in her tone, Sun Dasheng took it seriously.

"Wei Wei ran into some trouble over there. Can you help her?" Ding Muchen asked weakly, worried he might refuse.

"What kind of trouble?" Sun Dasheng asked.

"I'm not too sure myself. She just called me, and it sounded chaotic on her end, with all sorts of noise. I got worried about her, so I called you. I'm sorry to trouble you, Brother Sun."

"There's no need to talk about 'trouble' between us. Alright, you don't worry either. I'll give her a call and find out what's going on."

Sun Dasheng reassured her with a few more words before hanging up.

He happened to have her on WeChat, since her account was linked to her phone number. He was about to call her but then considered that she might be in a bad situation, so he canceled the call. He decided to send a WeChat message first.

[Where are you? What happened? Do you need help?]

She replied quickly. First, she sent a location pin. Then came a single word:

[Help!]

It's that serious?

Without a second thought, he went downstairs and drove off.

Her location wasn't far from him; it was only a few minutes' drive. After parking, he walked toward the pinned location.

It was a five-story, retro-style restaurant. From its grand facade, he could tell that dining inside was likely expensive.

As he was about to enter, he was stopped by several guards at the door.

"Sir, my apologies, but this is a private club. Non-members are not allowed inside."

This is a bit troublesome.

Barging in was a last resort, something a big boss like him had no need to do.

He smiled and asked, "Oh? Then how does one become a member of your club?"

Wealthy people naturally have their own ways of solving problems. But money isn't always the solution.

The expressionless guard replied, "I'm sorry, sir. Our club is invitation-only. You must be invited by a current member to join."

"Alright!"

He walked away with a smile.

He circled around the building and found that the back, which faced a river, had a large terrace on the second floor for enjoying the view. As it was a restaurant, its ground floor was slightly higher than a normal building's, but not by much.

Late at night, no one was out enjoying the scenery, so it was very quiet.

He stood there for a moment, then sent a WeChat message.

Before long, a small head peeked down from the large terrace above.
