Chapter 682: Chapter 680 Bustling Entrance_1 Chapter 682: Chapter 680 Bustling Entrance_1 I knew it, they were still testing me!

After readily agreeing to Asao Sakura’s request, Fu Qian looked at her with a smile that was cooperative to a fault, leaving no room for criticism.

However, in his line of sight, a momentary stiffness appeared on the face of this professional.

Clearly, Asao Sakura did not fully believe what he had just said; her last question was completely a test.

It was understandable, after all, considering the Night Watchman’s pursuit, it was hard to imagine how he had escaped.

What’s more exaggerated was that he even dared to come back now!

Even if one thought with their butt, the situation was visibly odd.

As a member of Yasui Corp’s public relations team, Asao Sakura was indeed more difficult to handle than Zetian.

But faced with her final test, Fu Qian still agreed without hesitation.

The reason he could do so was the benefit of having clear divisions of work.

In Fu Qian’s view, as a member of the public relations team, Asao Sakura’s concerns were completely different from Zetian’s, how could she truly care about the effects of the elixir?

Asao Sakura’s sole purpose of coming here today was to ensure that his anomaly did not pose a threat to the operations of Yasui Corp.

She was eager to know the role of the Night Watchman in this matter and what kind of conflict had led to Kunio’s death.

What they feared the most was some tacit understanding between him and the Night Watchman, a set-up for entrapment.

In such a case, even if he offered to cooperate with the testing, she might have hesitated, how could she be so actively concerned about this.

So the sole purpose of her words just now was to test, and given how readily he had agreed, she was clearly feeling guilty.

“That’s great,” she said.

Before Asao Sakura could voice her relief, an impatient Brother Zetian couldn’t hold back.

Fu Qian’s overly cooperative attitude was a pleasant surprise for him.

“I will arrange it as soon as I go back.”

“Oh my!”

However, before she could finish speaking, Asao Sakura let out a startled gasp, her face showing annoyance.

“I almost forgot, that was an incident from several months ago, we’re way past the testing deadline!”

“Thank you for your willingness to cooperate, nonetheless.”

An elite in public relations, her ability to tell a blatant lie was indeed expert.

Fu Qian praised in his heart.

This Asao Sakura was clearly much stronger than Zetian, almost reaching the Middle Tier level.

And under his deliberate control just now, she would definitely have sensed that his constitution was no longer that of an ordinary person.

Yet now she blatantly lied, claiming that since it was overdue there was no need for further testing, completely disregarding Zetian whose face had turned the color of liver.

“Sorry to disturb you. Will Mr. Darcy be staying here for a while?”

After apologizing, Asao Sakura was ready to take her leave.

“Of course, I am a person who values quality of life,” Fu Qian replied affirmatively.

At those words, Asao Sakura subconsciously glanced upstairs.

That was where Su Gao rested.

Although Su Gao hadn’t come out, she was undoubtedly very much in character, controlling her presence very adeptly.

Under these circumstances, Asao Sakura was already aware that someone was there.

Taking into account Fu Qian’s previously understood interests, she showed a knowing smile at the mention of quality of life.

“Understood. Anyway, I’m glad to see you back. I will report the situation and might need to contact you again soon,” Asao Sakura said with a nodding smile, and the next moment, as she turned her face away, her sharp eyes swept over Zetian’s face, forcing him to swallow all the words he had been about to say.

…

“Are you trying to lure the snake out of its hole?”

After the two left, Su Gao quickly appeared on the stairs.

She seemed to have adapted quite well to her new persona.

Seating herself next to Fu Qian, she asked thoughtfully.

Considering Fu Qian’s previous explanations, she already had a good grasp of the situation.

Meanwhile, she could tell that Fu Qian had not only made no attempt to conceal his aura just now, but had even seemed to flaunt it on purpose, clearly fishing for something.

“Yep, I’m a success story now,” he quipped.

“But my words were constantly implying some kind of tacit understanding with the Night Watchman.”

“So Asao Sakura wouldn’t dare let me blatantly test out the effects, but she would definitely report it.”

“Now let’s see if such a special case will attract the attention of any big shots who are interested, like the person who designed the Miracle Elixir formula…”
“Will they make a special trip to observe me then?”

“It seems highly likely.”

Su Gao nodded, showing approval for Fu Qian’s thoughts.

“You suspect the formula might come from the Native Council?”

“Can’t be sure, but if a high-ranking Yasui Corp executive comes, I can live with that.”

Fu Qian was never blindly optimistic.

“Hmm, so are you going to ‘conclude’ now?”

Su Gao still remembered another part of Fu Qian’s earlier statement.

“No rush, let’s wait a little longer.”

Fu Qian leaned back in his chair, as leisurely as could be.

“First, I’ll entertain the next guest.”

…
“Darcy Crawford, you actually–dare to come back!”

Fu Qian didn’t have to wait long before a familiar figure appeared at the door.

Upon entering, Suzune’s teeth were almost grinding audibly as she glared at Fu Qian, who was coolly seated there.

“Lady Suzune,”
Fu Qian greeted her with a bright expression, all warmth and cordiality.

“Long time no see.”

The next moment his brow furrowed slightly as he looked her up and down.

“You seem quite haggard, what happened to you?”

This wasn’t just talk; the current state of Suzune was visibly withered compared to before.

What happened? You don’t know why?

Yet, facing his supposed concern, Suzune could barely resist snapping at him.

A few months ago, this guy vanished without a trace, and she had to stay distracted, constantly on guard that he might target Kagetsu Kana.

Guarding against a thief was exhausting, especially when Kana herself was anything but calm.

Who would have thought that after months of vigilance, this guy would nonchalantly return home.

However, based on past experience, Suzune knew not to be led by the nose and took a deep breath.

“Where have you been all this time?”

“Just wandering around,” Fu Qian had his answer prepared.

“And then?” Suzune pressed, patiently.

“And then? Got bored of wandering, so I came back. I still prefer this quality lifestyle.”

“What quality life–” Suzune cut off as she watched Su Gao walk in from behind.

“Hello!”

Su Gao greeted with an unusually cheery tone she never used before.

“You… hello…” Suzune gritted her teeth in reply, then looked Su Gao up and down, a pained expression on her face.

This guy has actually lured another naive girl here!
