Fu Zhi did not tell Ouyang Feng about Shen Cizhou, just like she was certain that Ouyang Feng would not tell her about the Shadow Corps.
Whatever she witnessed at the Shadow Corps were the things Ouyang Feng wanted her to see.
Rumor had it that the mysterious power of the Ouyang Family was much more than what Fu Zhi had seen.
The car was moving smoothly on the road. Ouyang Feng then said, “I didn’t jot down in detail the construction of some firearms in my notebook, so if you are interested, feel free to ask in my office.”
Fu Zhi cast a suspicious gaze at Ouyang Feng, as if she did not believe that he would be so nice to her.
Just as she’d expected, Ouyang Feng said, “But you have to call me master first before I’ll start teaching you.”
Fu Zhi was speechless.

At the Mu Residence...
After school, Mu Chenxi went back home. She wanted to complain to her father about the things that had happened during her school today, but as soon as she entered her father’s study, Mu Chanqing gestured silently.
Then, he put the phone closer to his ear and said, “Don’t worry, President Jiang. It’s just a misunderstanding. Everything is going to be fine. Weibo? I haven’t seen it. Although I don’t know why she would say that, I assure you that we will take care of it.
“Okay... Yes... Alright, thank you for understanding. Rest assured, I will not let you down!”
Mu Changqing comforted him before the person on the other side of the line hung up the phone. He let out a long sigh and slumped onto his chair.
He rubbed his face vigorously with his hands and kicked the chair beside him in frustration, causing Mu Chenxi to jump up in fright.
“What’s wrong, dad?” Mu Chenxi asked, her voice shaking with fear.
Seeing the dark expression on her father’s face, Mu Chenxi forwent her attempt to seek solace from her father. She knew her father had been talking to President Jiang just now, and it seemed to her that President Jiang was not happy with the things Pure Feather had posted on her Weibo account today.
“I have a business deal with the Jiang Family, and Pure Feather is the reason they were willing to give the opportunity to us. However, Pure Feather posted something on her Weibo account this morning, and the Jiang Family is infuriated. They are going to put the deal on hold, and President Jiang said they would only keep their end of the deal after we got the film rights from Pure Feather!”
Mu Changqing smacked the table hard again before adding, “The profit of the deal alone is worth a few million, and I don’t understand why Pure Feather would draw back from the cooperation all of a sudden. If she hadn’t done it, we would have gotten the deal already!”
Mu Changqing was exasperated. He did not know what had gone wrong or who had offended Pure Feather, but Mu Chenxi knew.
She had just gotten humiliated by Fu Zhi this morning. Besides, Pure Feather had only posted on Weibo after she had infuriated Fu Zhi.
But could Mu Chenxi tell her father?
No, she could not.
Although Mu Chanqing loved her, if he knew that she was the reason he had lost the business deal, she was certain that he would beat her up.
‘It’s all Fu Zhi’s fault! If she hadn’t gotten in the way, none of this would have happened.’
Mu Chenxi thought for a while and then said, “Dad, I know why Pure Feather doesn’t want to cooperate with us.”
“?” Mu Changqing looked quizzically at his daughter.
“Dad, do you remember that you were going to donate books to our school? When I went there this morning, I heard from the delivery man of the Fu Corporation that Pure Feather had donated 2,000 books because of Fu Zhi.”
“What? Why would she do that?”
Mu Changqing had always thought that there wasn’t a solid relationship between Fu Zhi and Pure Feather and Fu Zhi was only one of her fervent fans at best.
Well, maybe she was not her fan at all. Pure Feather was just taking care of a girl who had lost her parents from a young age because of her relationship with the research institute.
However, it seemed to him that this was not the case now.
After all, Pure Feather had rejected him when he’d offered to buy her books to donate them to No.1 High School.
“It’s true, dad,” Mu Chenxi said. “Did I not have a conflict with Fu Zhi? Because Fu Zhi treated me badly and her classmates scolded me, I said that I would definitely not give the books to the students of Class 21 if I donated them. You know this, right?”
Mu Changqing nodded.
It was not a big deal. Fu Zhi and her friends in Class 21 were being unreasonable, and Mu Changqing was not happy with their attitude either.
“Dad, Fu Zhi must have gotten to know Pure Feather through the research institute. She doesn’t like us, so she found someone to badmouth us in front of Pure Feather, causing Pure Feather to terminate our cooperation!”
She did not tell her father about the things she had done to Fu Zhi this morning, and she just blamed everything on Fu Zhi.
She then added, “And you still personally went to welcome her at the Angel Foundation the other day. Not only was she not grateful for you, but she even sabotaged your business deal. I’ve never seen a vicious, evil girl like her before!”
The cooperation with the Jiang Family was a deal that every elite family in both Yu City and the capital sought after. The Mu Family had been on the brink of transformation, but Fu Zhi had spoiled everything.
“How dare she! So it was her the whole time!”
Mu Changqing had ordered his secretary to check which people in the Mu Family had offended Pure Feather, but to no avail. After he listened to what his daughter had to say, he finally realized it was Fu Zhi who had been pulling the strings and had sabotaged the cooperation between them and Pure Feather.
The more Mu Chanqing thought about it, the angrier he became. He pushed all the cups and the teapot on the table to the floor.
“Dad, what should we do now?” Mu Chenxi asked carefully.
“I will stay in contact with Pure Feather. As for Fu Zhi...” Mu Changqing sneered coldly.
She was just a grasshopper who did not know how high the sky was. He was certain that he’d be able to crush her easily.
Of course, he would deal with her later.
The most important thing right now was comforting Pure Feather to continue their cooperation.
“The Fu Corporation doesn’t take part in the entertainment business. We just need to make our script as perfect as possible and I’m sure Pure Feather will come back to us,” Mu Changqing said with confidence.
However, Mu Chenxi did not think so. She thought of the scandals of their movie director and frowned.
