Everyone in the Group is a Main Character, Except Me Who's the Villain

That person from last night had clearly been right in front of him, and had even beaten him and his bodyguards to a pulp. The sudden sense of oppression he felt then still made his scalp tingle when he thought about it now.

But now... he couldn’t be found in the surveillance?? Could a grown man simply vanish into thin air?

“Useless! You’re all useless!”

Being unable to find any clues gave Zhou Zihao a feeling of helplessness, like punching cotton, which made him even more irritable.

He wanted to hit someone, but because his movement was too large, it tugged at the needle on the back of his hand, making him grimace in pain.

“Hiss... give me the phone!”

Zhou Zihao reached out, took the phone handed to him by the bodyguard, and found Shen Wanyin’s name.

He had passed out last night and didn’t know what happened afterward, but if Shen Wanyin wasn’t dead, she would definitely know something... At this moment, Shen Wanyin was wearing a comfortable set of silk loungewear, sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in her second-floor bedroom, holding a glass of warm water, her eyes staring blankly out the window.

Although she had come back, taken a shower, and rested for the morning—recovering her physical state somewhat—how was she supposed to solve the problems in reality??

Ring ring ring!

Her secretary called.

“President Shen, the fabric supplier called again just now. They said if we don’t settle the payment for the previous quarter this week, they will cut off supplies and sue us for breach of contract.”

“Also, regarding the bank... the credit department manager said that if the twenty-million-yuan funding gap isn’t filled, our credit line will be frozen.”

“I understand.” Shen Wanyin rubbed her throbbing temples. “Go and reassure the staff. I’ll try my best to find a way regarding the money.”

“Yes!”

After hanging up the phone, Shen Wanyin dropped all her pretenses and slumped dejectedly against the back of her chair.

She was in the mid-to-high-end clothing business, owning not only her own company but also her own production lines.

Before this, she and Zhou Zihao had absolutely nothing to do with each other.

But at some point, the other party had started quietly setting a trap for her.

He deliberately ordered a large amount of clothing and intentionally won over her upstream and downstream companies, using contract loopholes to withhold final payments. His goal was to force her to submit, to force her to sell the company to the Zhou Family at a low price, and even to force her... to become his plaything.

It was precisely because of this thirty-million-yuan final payment that she had gone to drink with Zhou Zihao!

She could ignore her own reputation, but she couldn’t ignore the company, nor the employees who had worked hard alongside her for many years.

But now... she said she would find a way, but what way could she possibly find?

Buzz buzz!

The phone on the coffee table vibrated again.

Seeing the name “Zhou Zihao” on the phone screen, Shen Wanyin’s pupils contracted slightly.

She waited a full five seconds before taking a deep breath, answering, and pressing the speakerphone button.

From the other end of the phone came Zhou Zihao’s voice, carrying a hint of deliberate concern along with occasional sniffing.

“Sister Wanyin, are you alright? Last night I saw you drank too much and were out cold, so I had the waiter open a room for you to rest. But then someone just told me that something happened at the Green Rhyme Pavilion hotel upstairs last night?”

These words were spoken flawlessly, as if the beast who had drugged her, dragged her away, and torn her clothes last night were someone else entirely.

Listening to the voice coming from the receiver, Shen Wanyin only felt disgusted.

“Zhou Zihao, we’re all adults. We both know what happened. There’s no need for you to perform this third-rate act here. Even if you don’t find it disgusting, I find it exhausting for you.”

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end.

“Achoo!!”

Knowing he couldn’t keep up the act, Zhou Zihao let out a heavy sneeze.

“Hehehe, fine, Shen Wanyin. Since you’ve made things clear, I won’t beat around the bush with you anymore. Who was that person last night?”
