Pei Wei returned home, where he was recovering from his injuries, and he heard Pei Zhe come back.

It’s his voice!

He disappeared for five years, and after five years, the first thing he did when he came back was to beat him up.

And... it was all because of that woman, Mu Anhan.

"How’s the investigation going?" he asked his subordinates.

"The surveillance footage from the time was damaged, it didn’t capture anyone entering the restroom. We’ve asked many people but found no clues." His subordinates were trembling.

Pei Wei was so furious that he smashed the ashtray in his hand. "Pei Zhe, if you have the guts, face me head-to-head in a showdown. Hiding like a ghost, what kind of person are you?"

But no one could answer his question.

Pei Wei’s business empire was rapidly shrinking.

All the investments he made were suddenly in the red.

He knew that only one person could have such skill.

And that person was Gu Xiaozhan.

Ever since the explosion at the film set involving Mu Anhan, Gu Xiaozhan had made no move, but he silently dealt with Pei Wei.

As long as Pei Wei’s assets were gone, what else did he have to compete against Gu Xiaozhan?

...

After the explosion, security at the film set was on high alert.

When Mu Anhan returned, everyone seemed highly tense.

She called Firebird: "Captain Huo, I have some matters to discuss. Are you free to meet me?"

"I’m available, I’ll head to the set now." Firebird straightforwardly hung up the phone.

He soon appeared in Mu Anhan’s office.

"Miss Mu..."

"Please call me Mrs. Gu."

She interrupted him, her eyes cold.

Firebird was slightly taken aback, feeling somewhat desolate, but quickly adjusted his mood, "Hello, Mrs. Gu!"

"Please have a seat!" Mu Anhan gestured for him to sit on the sofa in the reception room.

She sat down as well, preparing to make him some tea.

"Captain Huo, what kind of tea would you like?"

"I can have anything." Firebird replied calmly.

Mu Anhan brewed him a cup of green tea, "A friend just sent me some West Lake Longjing."

Firebird looked at the tea and momentarily lost focus.

He took it and sipped, "I don’t know much about tea, can’t really comment, but it tastes nice."

Mu Anhan also picked up a cup and drank, "It doesn’t matter, tea is just for quenching thirst."

"Why did Mrs. Gu call me here?" Firebird looked at her.

Mu Anhan met his gaze, "I never expected the captain from the police department to write scripts!"

Firebird chuckled, "Just a hobby in my spare time."

"Is the police department so leisurely nowadays?" Mu Anhan spoke with some sharpness.

Firebird remained composed, calmly addressing her, "Mrs. Gu seems to have some opinion about me."

Mu Anhan’s eyes were sharp as she stared at him, "This script reminds me of someone..."

Firebird was taken aback, did she regain her memory? Recalling that person?

Yet, he continued sipping the bitter tea, responding with a casual tone, "Who does it remind you of?"

"Pei Zhe."

When Mu Anhan uttered these words, Firebird was slightly surprised, "The rumored illegitimate son of the current president?"

"Exactly." Mu Anhan nodded bitterly.

Firebird lowered his eyes, "If this script triggered Mrs. Gu’s memory, I’d better take it back!"

He stood up, taking the script he had given last time from the table, ready to leave immediately.
