The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 818 - 816: Do You Want to Know What Happened to Her in Paris?

Recently, the political scene has been fraught with undercurrents. Lu Beichen is aware of this! But he never thought Tong Songbai would resort to such measures!

His secret, once known to Tong Ji Yuan, indeed delivers a fatal blow! If he holds onto the lives of An Lin and her daughter, what would Tong Ji Yuan do?

Lu Beichen said calmly, "If An Lin truly is your bottom line, you wouldn’t have abandoned her while she was pregnant! Now, how can I trust you won’t do something that would endanger their lives!"

"I only asked her to wait for me!" Tong Ji Yuan emphasized somewhat out of control, "Lu Beichen, if I wanted, I could have been the one engaged to Gu Zimo! But the position of Mrs. Tong Ji Yuan can only belong to An Lin. I must secure the chief’s position, and thereafter An Lin will stand beside me to rule the world, no exceptions!"

"Alright, what do you need me to do?" Lu Beichen asked calmly.

"I will have someone investigate where Tong Songbai took An Lin and An’an!" Tong Ji Yuan swallowed hard, "Lu Beichen, to be honest, I hold a fatal secret that could ruin Tong Songbai, but once this secret is revealed, it may involve your wife. I promised Tong Songlin not to let this secret leak. I know your wife is your bottom line, but in exchange for An Lin and her daughter’s safety, this is all I have! I won’t actively harm your wife!"

"What secret?" Lu Beichen merely asked calmly.

"It’s a secret; I can’t tell anyone now! But as long as you help me defeat Tong Songbai, I’ll tell you, and while I’m at it, I might tell you what exactly happened in Paris with your wife back then!"

"You know?" Only then did Lu Beichen become somewhat tense.

Tong Ji Yuan chuckled, "Indeed, compared to a secret, you care more about this! Lu Beichen, although back then your trip to Paris had nothing to do with me, you clearly understand my current status. I might know better than you because no one defends against me, fearing I would check on this!"

"Defend?"

Indeed, his influence in Paris is quite substantial, yet he couldn’t find a single clue from back then, which proves someone is secretly preventing him from investigating this matter!

So, who could stop Lu Beichen from digging? 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Although the Tong Songlin couple has some influence in Paris, it’s not enough to interfere with his investigation.

Moreover, when he returned to find Ji Niandong back then, his investigation proved futile!

Lu Beichen chuckled lowly, "Are you suggesting... it’s Tong Songbai?"

In the past, he didn’t think so, but now, is it possible?

"I’ve said, as long as you help me defeat him, I’ll tell you!" Tong Ji Yuan finished speaking, "I’m going to find An Lin now. I will contact you if needed; think it through!"

He quickly hung up the phone, and Lu Beichen sat on the sofa, pondering slightly, then took out a cigarette and smoked slowly.

It seems everyone is trying to play him, huh?

He is just more concerned about which option is best to prevent the little woman from getting hurt.

Ji Niandong tossed and turned last night, unable to sleep until dawn arrived. When she woke up, it was already late. Anxiously, she sent a voice message to Xiao Le, "Why didn’t you wake me? Has today’s filming already started?"

"Recently, Sister Tong, you haven’t missed a single scene. Filming has been day and night; I tried calling you, but you didn’t answer. I figured you must be extremely tired, so I didn’t disturb you!" Xiao Le quickly called back, since it was the female protagonist’s role, indeed almost every scene involved her, and shooting never stopped.

After Xiao Le spoke, she hurriedly explained, "The scenes this morning are all done by a stand-in, so Sister Tong, you don’t need to go!"

"Stand-in? Why didn’t anyone tell me? Did the director agree? It’s not good for my reputation if I wake up using a stand-in!" Moreover, this is her final scene; she simply wants to do it herself.
