My Superstar Wife Is So Popular-Chapter 823 - 821: Business Marriage Alliance

"What feud are you talking about? You’ve been reading too many martial arts novels." Huo Mutian grumbled, "As for what my relationship with her is, you little brat shouldn’t be nosy. Just focus on what I’ve asked you to do."

Such evasiveness clearly spells trouble; the word "affair" is already glaringly obvious. Wen Qiao has already conjured a dramatic scenario in her mind: "he chases, she runs, eventually she’s caught inescapably."

But Wen Qiao knows that she won’t get anything out of Huo Mutian, so she might as well focus on Fang Qinghe.

She has seen Fang Qinghe twice. They’re both set to join Zheng Chen’s production soon, playing the first and second female leads, respectively.

Fang Qinghe has a cool and elegant appearance, a classic beauty with a chilled demeanor that makes her seem untouchable.

However, people who are outwardly cold are often quite pure-hearted inside, the kind that blushes easily when teased.

With this in mind, Wen Qiao already has a plan.

"Alright, got it. I’ll do this errand for you just this once." Wen Qiao agreed to the task.

"Then I’ll be waiting for your good news."

"Is there anything else? If not, hang up already. I need to go romance my man."

Wen Qiao cheekily declared, pressing her finger on the screen’s red button, swiftly ending the call.

Huo Mutian, with "goodbye" stuck in his throat, chuckled in exasperation as he listened to the busy signal in his ear.

He once again confirmed that the moment he became interested in Wen Qiao on the plane, he must have been possessed by something unholy.

He must have been.

After hanging up, Wen Qiao gave Fu Jinghen a kiss to make up for having just ignored him.

Pulling back, her eyes were bright, filled with a gossipy gleam. "What do you think is going on between Huo Mutian and Fang Qinghe?"

Fu Jinghen isn’t typically one to gossip about others’ affairs, but if it’s with Wen Qiao, he’s willing to make an exception. "Mr. Huo recently chose someone for Huo Mutian to marry, coincidentally with the last name Fang."

The gossip in Wen Qiao’s eyes grew even more intense. "Are you suggesting that the Huo family and Fang family are aiming for a commercial alliance?"

The Huo family’s wealth is comparable to the Fu family’s. Such prestigious families inevitably venture into commercial alliances. Although the Fang family isn’t as dominant as the Huo family, they are indeed well-off, and as an academic family, Grandpa Fang is highly influential in Jiang City.

Fu Jinghen felt an inexplicable aversion to the term "commercial alliance". When Wen Qiao asked, he paused briefly before nodding, "Yes, that’s the implication."

"But, looking at Huo Mutian, he doesn’t seem like someone who would obediently follow such orders. He wouldn’t even add friends casually, yet this time he not only added one, but is asking me to help him get approval for the friend request..." Wen Qiao mused, finally concluding, "Based on my experience, their relationship is definitely complicated."

Fu Jinghen lifted his eyelids slightly, "What experience do you have?"

"....."

?

Why is this man getting increasingly better at pinning down key points?

"Well, it’s based on my years of watching melodramatic idol dramas and romance novels." Wen Qiao candidly looked Fu Jinghen in the eye. "What did you think it was based on?"
