CHAPTER 533: CHAPTER 531: DRIVES PEOPLE CRAZY, MAKES THEM BANG THEIR HEADS AGAINST THE WALL

Director Li choked and shot her a glance with raised brows.

The ringtone of a mobile phone sounded. Director Li peered at the screen, and upon recognizing the caller ID, hurriedly answered the call. He thrust the cup into Chen Xing’s hand and walked out of the surveillance room.

"Assistant Feng, are you calling because President Fu has some instructions?"

"You’re too polite, Director Li. Instructions might be overstating it, but there is indeed a matter at hand," Feng Li said cheerfully. "Huasong has developed rapidly over the past two years, but the ratio of male to female artists has become somewhat imbalanced. President Fu has been paying more attention to this issue and has been watching our program. He wanted to inquire about the guest we’ve invited for this episode and asked if it would be possible to send over his personal information."

"He says he’s a student from the film academy, and he’ll definitely enter the entertainment industry in the future, right? President Fu is rather optimistic about him. Signing with Huasong would be nothing but beneficial for his future career."

Feng Li’s words were wrapped up neatly. After hanging up the call, Director Li didn’t even think twice before immediately sending Lin Luang’s personal information to Feng Li’s email.

He printed it out and, with the documents in hand, knocked on the office door.

Upon hearing a "Come in" from inside, he pushed the door open and entered.

"President Fu, Director Li—"

Before Feng Li could hand over the documents, he saw Fu Jinghen standing up with his suit jacket in hand.

"President Fu, are you going out?"

"Mhm." Fu Jinghen kept walking. "Going to the airport."

"Ah?" Feng Li followed him. "The flight’s at five. Isn’t it a bit early to head to the airport now?"

Fu Jinghen issued a brief command. "Change the flight."

"Got it!"

Feng Li hurried after Fu Jinghen, taking a deep breath.

It seemed the Boss Lady’s interactions with Lin Luang had truly gotten under President Fu’s skin. Just look at him, as if he couldn’t wait to grow a pair of wings and fly there himself.

Love, truly makes people foolish and wild, banging their heads against the wall.

-

Fu Jinghen swiftly rebooked his ticket and boarded the flight to West City. At the same time, the investigative team comprised of Wen Qiao, Lin Luang, Qi Ming, Ning Li, and Shi Koufan was carrying out their task.

Following the clues left by the production crew, they went from one location to another to collect evidence.

While retrieving materials from the principal’s office, which was the penultimate stop, they encountered Fang Baichen dressed up as a principal.

Shi Koufan, the first to enter, blinked in slight confusion upon seeing Fang Baichen already there with a welcoming smile. "Mr. Fang?"

Fang Baichen pointed to the nameplate pinned on his chest. "It’s Principal Fang now."

Qi Ming peeked in, muttering, "The production crew must be too broke to afford extras of this age group, so they grabbed Mr. Fang instead."

Ning Li nudged him from behind. "Hurry up and get in, don’t block the door."

The group flooded into the principal’s office, and the once-empty room instantly became packed to the brim.

Considering they were playing out the plot, it wouldn’t be proper to greet each other, so Lin Luang simply nodded at Fang Baichen in acknowledgment.

Fang Baichen pointed to the sofa and made a "please sit" gesture before asking, "What brings you students here? Is there something you need?"

The evidence they had gathered along the way, coupled with everyone’s own experiences from student life, allowed them to hazard a guess at the true reason behind "Liao Tingting’s" suicide.

It was either due to the unbearable pressure of academic studies or a matter of the heart.

But these were only speculations, and they still needed to complete the plot as per the production crew’s requirements, so they asked a few questions to Principal Fang, which they had previously discussed together.
