Chapter 316 Fisher's Identity
Chapter 316 Fisher's Identity
Fisher, the second son of the entire Bourbon family, Julie's second brother, Adrian's younger brother, and the most beloved grandson of the Bourbon family patriarch.
Fisher has always hated these kinds of parties, but he actually showed up today, and he even knows these two people in front of him. There were quite a few gasps in the room. Tonight is really going to be a test for their hearts.
Especially for Judy, her second brother was used to playing the field, and she felt that his sudden appearance tonight was not simple. Could it be because of the two people in front of him?
Oh no! She finally understood what it meant to "not recognize a person's true worth"!
Yan Zuozuo was taken aback when she saw Fisher, blinked, and asked, "Director, what brings you here?"
Fisher burst into laughter, but before he could speak, Julie screamed, "What director? This is my second brother!"
Yan Zuozuo was completely stunned, and her eyes were filled with a strange look as she looked at Fisher.
My God, he is actually the second young master of the famous Bourbon family.
She turned her head and stared blankly at Chi Moqing, only to see that he had a calm expression, as if he had known Fisher's identity for a long time.
Fisher smiled slightly and reached out to shake hands with Yan Zuozuo. "Zuozuo, welcome to our family banquet. It is my greatest honor tonight."
Everyone was stunned. What was going on? The usually unruly second young master was actually bowing down to a woman, and this woman was someone else's wife! This scene was truly... too bizarre!
Yan Zuozuo finally regained her composure. She didn't care about any honor or not. Instead, she tightly protected Chi Moqing and solemnly said, "Keep an eye on your sister. Don't you dare make a move on my husband!"
Fisher was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter, turning to Judy and saying, "Did you hear that? You're not allowed to cause any more trouble. Otherwise, Mrs. Chi's jealousy will overturn and drown you."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zuozuo's face immediately turned red, and she snuggled into Chi Moqing's arms.
Chi Moqing looked at her with affection, then turned to Juliet and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Miss Juliet, but I am not interested in any woman other than my wife. Especially not a little girl."
No sooner had Chi Moqing finished speaking than Judy jumped up, "Who are you calling a little girl? I'm an adult, an adult! Don't you understand!"
She hates it when people treat her like a little girl, as if everything she does is just childish whims. She's had enough!
Chi Moqing smiled but remained silent, having long since ignored her arrogance, and lowered his head to be affectionate with Yan Zuozuo. Judy was absolutely furious; what kind of people did her brother know!
"I don't care! You can get a divorce after marriage. In short, it's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to you, so you have to give me your love!"
As soon as Judy finished speaking, a collective gasp and a chorus of heartbreak filled the air. No way, she'd fallen in love already? What about their dreams of marrying into wealth?
Yan Zuozuo was not to be outdone and immediately ran in front of Chi Moqing to block him. "Miss, don't think I'll be afraid of you just because you're the director's sister. My husband and I are a legally married couple. How can you so blatantly try to steal him away? Is there no law anymore?"
"I don't care about the law, I just want it!"
The situation is on the verge of exploding!
"Enough!" Adrian glared at Jusie with a dark face, and without saying a word, said coldly, "Guards, take Miss back to her room. No one is to let her out without my order!"
At his command, Judy was taken away by several bodyguards. She was wailing and screaming in protest, "Are you even my brother? How dare you side with an outsider? I hate you, I hate you!"
Jusie was quickly taken away, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. However, a buzz of discussion soon followed. It was common knowledge that this young lady of the Bourbon family was the apple of everyone's eye; she was always the one bullying others, and no one dared to bully her. Today's incident was arguably the greatest humiliation Jusie had ever suffered, and it was unlikely she would let it go so easily.
Adrian naturally heard these comments, but he remained calm, glanced around, and said in a low voice, "I apologize for making this a spectacle for you all. Now, please continue to enjoy the fine wine and food."
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Fisher chuckled, "President Chi, you've really put my sister through the wringer. She'll probably be locked up and reflecting on her actions for the next few months."
"It's better for girls to stay home as much as possible, since there are too many bad people out there," Chi Moqing said indifferently.
Fisher noticed the hand that was around Yan Zuozuo's waist and felt that there was something more to it than met the eye. Could it be that he was implying that Yan Zuozuo wasn't a good person either?
He rolled his eyes: "I've heard a saying that goes, 'The magistrate is allowed to set fires while the common people are forbidden to light lamps,' and I think it's perfectly applicable to President Chi."
Chi Moqing's thin lips curled up slightly, and he sneered, "The eldest brother is like a father; if the son is not taught, it is the father's fault."
Fisher's eyebrows twitched, then he looked shamelessly at Adrian, "Did you hear that? It's all your fault."
Adrian's face darkened, making Yan Zuozuo almost burst out laughing.
After a while, Adrian said, "President Chi, would it be convenient for you to come to the VIP room later? I have some questions I'd like to ask you."
Chi Moqing pondered for a moment before saying, "I shall obey your command."
Adrian nodded, then nodded to the others before turning and leaving.
In the luxurious VIP room, several men chatted and sipped wine. Apart from Yan Zuozuo, there were no other women present. Yan Zuozuo found it strange. When they first entered the banquet, they had heard rumors that this banquet was a selection ceremony for the three siblings to choose their husbands. Why weren't they going out to socialize with the young men and women? What were they doing locked up here?
Adrian took a small sip of red wine and smiled faintly, "I thought I wouldn't be able to see President Chi today. If I had known that President Chi would be coming because of Mrs. Chi, I should have given the invitation to Mrs. Chi in the first place."
Chi Moqing smiled and said, "You can try it next time."
Adrian hummed in agreement, glancing at Chi Moqing and then at Yan Zuozuo, "President Chi and Mrs. Chi are truly a match made in heaven. I'm so envious and jealous."
Everyone outside says that Adrian is very aloof, but Yan Zuozuo finds him quite amusing. She smiles and says, "Mr. Adrian is of noble status, and I'm afraid he wouldn't even look at an ordinary person."
“Yes, all the women I like are married and have children, leaving me all alone.” Adrian said with a mournful tone, which made Yan Zuozuo laugh out loud.
Speaking of which, Chi Moqing and Adrian are old acquaintances, but their acquaintance was somewhat strange, so their way of getting along over the years has also been quite peculiar. However, it can also be said that heroes cherish heroes.
Seeing that they were having a pleasant conversation, Fisher picked up his glass of red wine, took a sip, and casually asked, "Brother, I just saw that kid Yi Fanxi. Did you invite him too?"
Chi Moqing and Yan Zuozuo were taken aback and looked at Adrian at the same time. He shrugged nonchalantly, "Yeah, just bored."
In the noisy banquet hall, Tong Shili felt utterly bored. So this was Fisher's true identity. She had only known that he had a powerful backing, but she was quite surprised that it was this powerful.
She picked up her wine glass and took a sip of red wine, wondering to herself how Fisher had so easily revealed his identity. Was it unintentional or deliberate?
She downed her glass of red wine in one gulp, put it down, and headed for the door. Night had fallen outside, and the silence was eerily quiet. She tried to hail a taxi, but none came. Instead, a car pulled up in front of her, and suddenly a figure flew past, crashing down on her.
Tong Shili was startled and almost cried out. However, she recognized the person's scent, and to make sure she hadn't mistaken them for someone else, she helped the person up and examined them carefully.
"What a coincidence." A cold voice rang out in the darkness, confirming the earlier remark.
Tong Shili frowned: "Is Young Master Yi planning to play the midnight horror game?"
Yi Fanxi didn't speak, leaning against the car, her voice sounding somewhat unusual, "Get in, we can't hail a taxi here."
Tong Shili looked around and, sure enough, there wasn't a single car in sight. Although she doubted Yi Fanxi's words, she got in the car just in case. However, it was the dim light inside the car that allowed her to see Yi Fanxi clearly, and she was startled at the same time.
Yi Fanxi was slumped over the steering wheel, his face deathly pale. She reached out and poked him. "Hey, are you alright?"
"It's not good, I might have to trouble you to drive."
"Oh, okay, okay, okay." Tong Shili was laboriously moved to the back seat by him, and she sat in the driver's seat herself. Turning around, she asked, "Where to now? Should we go to the hospital..."
"No need, I just need to rest. Take me to the hotel," Yi Fanxi said weakly.
Tong Shili hesitated for a moment, looking at him, thinking that he wouldn't risk his life, and that he was probably feeling unwell. So she listened to him and took him to the hotel.
After arriving at the room, Yi Fanxi was noticeably better. Although she was still listless, her face was not as pale as before.
Tong Shili poured him a glass of warm water: "Young Master Yi is usually all-powerful, how come you're in such a sorry state today?"
Yi Fanxi lay on the bed, took a sip of warm water, and said, "My stomach wasn't good, but it's much better now."
Although Tong Shili had her suspicions, seeing that Yi Fanxi genuinely seemed to have an upset stomach, her doubts were dispelled. After a pause, she asked, "How did you end up here?"
Did Adrian know his identity and invite him here?
He slightly opened his eyes, glanced at Tong Shili, and slowly said, "In the entire design industry, no one is unaware of Yi Fanxi."
Tong Shili was taken aback, then slapped her forehead. How could she have forgotten that besides being the young master of the Yi family, Yi Fanxi was also a renowned design genius in the design world, and a sharp fashion critic.
"Are you sure you don't need to see a doctor?" Tong Shili asked, still worried.
Yi Fanxi turned to look at her, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I'll be fine after a nap, thank you." With that, he tilted his head slightly and actually fell asleep.
Tong Shili blinked. So fast?
She tiptoed out of the room, hailed a taxi, and left. However, just as she closed the door, Yi Fanxi opened her eyes, a dark and unfathomable light flashing in her deep pupils.
He wasn't actually suffering from stomach pain; he was poisoned. It seems Master J really isn't going to let this go. If it weren't for him today, Chi Moqing's fate would likely be unknown.
He turned to look out the window, his face clouded with gloom.
