The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise

The wind of Yu City in the middle of the night during winter was biting cold.

Gu Min remained sitting on the ground for a long while, for he finally realized that the young lady he had taken a liking to might be a pink-haired b*d*ss.

That being said, he still thought she was cool, especially when she came near him just now, her eyes were so bright they looked as if they were stars.

Gu Min put his hand on his heart that was pumping rapidly. He then made a call to Gu Yanqi, “I think this is it. I just found the true love of my life. You don’t know. That little sweetheart, your future sister-in-law, is so cool. Her eyes are like two obsidian stones, her lips are like cherries, her brows are like two crescent moons, and her face, oh her face… I’ve never seen such a perfect and pretty face before. It’s like the goddess of love has presented herself in front of me…”

Gu Yanqi knew that Gu Min was a womanizer and he used to date a couple of girls at the same time. What’s more, he would always call Gu Yanqi whenever he came across a pretty girl and told him that he had found his true love.

That said, this was the first time he described his “true love” with so much detail. Gu Yanqi put the call on speaker and Li Nanli was just sitting beside him. After he heard what Gu Min had said, he chuckled and said, “What your brother is saying is that she is like everything but not a human being?”

Gu Min was slightly stunned when he heard Li Nanli’s voice. Then, he snarled, “You’re just being jealous that I’ve found my true love!”

“Gu Min,” Gu Yanqi said in a stern voice, “He’s Young Master Li, so watch your manners.”

Oh great, his brother was hanging out with Young Master Li again.

“I’m sorry, President Li. Please forgive me for my bad manners.”

Li Nanli then replied, “I have a girlfriend, and we have been together for more than 2 months. She loves me deeply, and nothing in this world could split us apart.”

Gu Min became speechless.

He was here to tell them that he had found the true love of his life, but before he had the chance, Li Nanli shamelessly showed off his relationship with his girlfriend to him.

‘Alright, alright, you win.’

“Then I wish you two can be together forever,” Gu Min said before turning to Gu Yanqi and asking him to stand further away from Li Nanli.

Then, he said, “I just want to tell you that our father does not support me. He tries to break us apart, so you have to help me, brother.”

Rubbing his temple in annoyance, Gu Yanqi gave a perfunctory answer and proceeded to hang up the call.

Li Nanli looked at him and Gu Yanqi shrugged, “Well, guess we spoiled him too much. He has a crush on his junior, but she doesn’t like him at all, so he asks for my help.”

What was Li Nanli thinking that time?

Well, Li Nanli did not think too much. What’s more, he even proposed a few plans for Gu Min because he was in a good mood.

He said, “Well, he can give the girl a bank card.”

‘Who the hell would give his girlfriend a bank card? Do you think everyone’s Fu Zhi?!’

That said, Gu Yanqi still decided to propose the plan to Gu Min.

…

Let’s put Gu Min to the side and talk about another person first.

The news about Fu Zhi lasted for a few days on the internet and it did not seem like it was going to stop anytime sooner or later.

Most of the people had lost count of the number of times Fu Zhi’s name appeared on Weibo’s hot topic. It seemed as if after the International Physics Competition and the journal incident, the netizens were becoming more and more drawn to Fu Zhi.

Several unpopular entertainment companies realized the business opportunity brought by Fu Zhi, and they all contacted Fu Zhi and Xu Wei, saying that they wanted to bring Fu Zhi into the entertainment industry and create a new era belonging to Fu Zhi.

As for some big entertainment companies such as Star Maker, their president directly made a call to Xi Man.

“About the thing on Weibo. I’m sure you’ve heard about the news that the netizens are raising a fund for Fu Zhi so that she could pursue an acting career, right? However, I didn’t see you all doing anything about it, so does it mean that Fu Zhi is really going to join the entertainment industry as an actor?”

Although he had tried his best to calm himself down, Xi Man was still able to hear a flicker of excitement in his voice through the phone. However, since he had not discussed with Fu Zhi yet, he replied matter-of-factly, “I haven’t talked with Zhizhi yet, so I can’t give you an answer.”

“Let me talk to her! I surely will be able to talk her into it!” The president’s eyes lit up. “Isn’t her brother one of the actors in Star Maker? You see, he has about 50 million followers right now, and if Fu Zhi comes to Star Maker, I’m sure she will be able to break Ye Shiyun’s record with ease.”

“Do you think Zhizhi really cares about that?”

Well, that was true as well. If attention was what Fu Zhi cared about, she would have continued to make music as “Addiction”.

The president cleared his throat and continued, “I understand that Fu Zhi is not fond of too much attention, it’s just that Star Maker has the best resources throughout the entire country, so we are her best option if she is really keen on becoming an actor. I assure you that we won’t take a single penny from her and we will do everything in our power to make her the most sought-after actor in the world!”

Xi Man rolled his eyes and replied, “Alright, come off it. Do you really think that I don’t know what you’re trying to do? One song from Zhizhi is enough to make the celebrities in your company famous. If she really joins your company, not only will you be able to push your company to a whole new level, but everyone in the capital has to step aside.”

‘Well…’ The president stroked his nose. Xi Man was half right. Fu Zhi indeed was a powerhouse and could bring a lot of profit to his company should she really join him, but at the same time, she was famous as well.

How famous was she?

A few of Ye Shiyun’s fans scolded Fu Zhi on the internet, then their action was discovered by one of their mothers.

That fan’s mother was Fu Zhi’s top fan. She adored Fu Zhi a lot and she treated her like she was her daughter. As such, she was devastated when she found out that her own biological daughter antagonized Fu Zhi.

Fu Zhi was unlike other celebrities. Most of her fans were mothers. Some of her fans even wanted to marry her due to her great charisma, and she had gained the favor of her audience after the country kept calling her “daughter”.

Therefore, someone like her who had a great foundation was destined to get famous if she decided to pursue an acting career.

After Fu Zhi signed a contract with Star Maker, he could ask her to help other actors or actresses after she had become a well-known actress.

It was a good plan, but unfortunately, the president of Star Maker failed to strike a deal with Xi Man.

During lunchtime, he kept mumbling something like Fu Zhi was a great researcher, she loved her country, she was definitely Fu Zhao’s daughter, and she was the new president of the Fu Corporation, so she would certainly be a successful actress.

“Hey, you know what?” A certain employee of Star Maker called out to her colleague when they were at the pantry. She wanted to tell her colleague about the thing she overheard when she was having lunch just now, but she could not remember the first half of the sentence, so she just told her colleague the second half of the sentence, “Our boss said that he failed to strike a deal with Fu Zhi, and Fu Zhi is destined to become a successful actress.”

Her colleague then told the same thing to her friend. Then, her friend told her friend again, and the cycle continued. In the end, there was this rumor going around in the company. As long as any actor or actress was willing to imitate Fu Zhi, the company would do everything they could to promote him or her and make him or her famous!

There was this saying which went: actors or actresses who did not aim to get the best actor award were not good actors and actresses.

Therefore, the moment those actresses who did not do well in the company heard the rumor, they instantly changed their public persona. They felt they were too naive. Their public persona was not special enough, that’s why they could not get famous no matter how hard they tried.

As for Fu Zhi, she became famous due to her bluntness, her achievement in the International Physics competition, her performance at the basketball match, and her suona and guzheng performance at the Mu Family’s gathering.

The actresses and their agents soon understood something.

If you wanted to be famous, you had to be like Fu Zhi. Of course, being like Fu Zhi was far from enough. If you wanted to be more famous than Fu Zhi, you might need to hire a few good-looking men and dance for them.

Fu Zhi made a heart with her hand? Then, you split your legs, performed a 360 degree back-turning kick, stretched your leg over your head, and made a heart with your feet.

Fu Zhi brainwashed everyone and helped China get an opportunity to hold the International Physics competition? Then, you should bring down all the pyramid schemes in China.

Fu Zhi played Suona? Then, you became an exorcist.

Fu Zhi threw the basketball with one hand? Then, you threw it with your mouth!

In any case, no matter what Fu Zhi did, just improved what she did 10,000 times. Then, you would become famous!
