Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1535 - 1539: Murong Fei’s Visit

Hearing Murong Fei say this, especially seeing her not looking well, appearing somewhat sorrowful, coupled with this sudden visit, Qin Tian's heart skipped a beat, feeling a little nervous.

"What's wrong?" Qin Tian asked. "Let's talk inside."

"I might have to return to the Imperial City."

As soon as they sat down inside, Murong Fei's words instantly made Qin Tian a bit unsettled.

"Return to the Imperial City? For what reason? Is your family pressuring you to marry..."

"No, it's not about marriage."

Murong Fei looked at Qin Tian, "Though it's not completely unrelated to marriage, it's my family's decision. Since I've graduated from East Han Academy, they want me to take a position in the Imperial City, possibly at the Imperial Palace."

Buzz!

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian's mind buzzed, and when he looked up, he vaguely felt his future, noticing green lights occasionally floating above his head.

"You're going to the Imperial Palace? And you say it's unrelated to marriage?" Qin Tian asked in a somewhat lost manner.

"It's not as you imagine. Our family needs someone inside the Imperial Palace again, and I happen to be suitable. So, the entire family basically decided to send me to the palace to serve as a concubine."

Murong Fei explained seriously, "Qin Tian, I won't always be like this. Estimates are just a year or two, after which I'll leave the palace. This time, I have no choice; I must comply with the family's arrangements, even my grandmother agreed."

Reaching this point, Qin Tian knew that nothing he said would matter.

Murong Fei is in such a large family like the Murong Family, without any backing, and as a woman, her fate can only be decided by the family!

The most hateful thing is, at present, Qin Tian lacks the official position, cultivation, and strength; he doesn't qualify to reason with the Murong Family!

Anger!

Qin Tian clenched his teeth lightly, and seeing Murong Fei's eyes moist made his heart ache again.

"Qin Tian, if I don't follow the family's arrangements this time, in the future... more things will be beyond my control..."

"I've thought about it. At least by entering the palace, I can avoid interactions with family members during these one to two years; I'll be much quieter."

"I've said that I also want to live in the same city with you, but the current reality... simply doesn't allow..."

Saying this, Murong Fei smiled at Qin Tian: "Qin Tian, I never imagined you'd already become a General. As long as you take another step forward, become a Titled General, or a Governor, then you can come to the Imperial City. Then, together, we can propose to my family's elders, is that okay?"

"Phew..."

Qin Tian let out a long breath and said, "Murong, I've already tried very hard. You have to wait for me."

Qin Tian reached out, cradled Murong Fei's exquisite cheeks, and looked at her, saying, "Titled General, Governor, I'll strive for it, just one step away. As long as I'm given the chance, I won't miss it!"

"I'm forever yours..."

Murong Fei leaned in to gently kiss Qin Tian on the lips, her breath fragrant like orchids, "Honey, wait for me for two years... I will strive also. I love you."

Her affectionate words were soft; Qin Tian felt his soul flutter, distracted for a moment, but he saw Murong Fei step back, turn around, and walk towards the room's exit...

Qin Tian wanted to reach out to pull her back, to stop her, but didn't make a move.

The situation had developed to such an extent that he and Murong Fei could only part temporarily; the more unwilling they were, the more it hurt.

Watching Murong Fei leave, Qin Tian was somewhat lost.

He clenched his fists tightly and softly said, "Murong, wait for me! I will reign in this Spiritual Domain! Let's see who dares to separate us!"

...

"Boss. I've basically investigated Wang Zhen's background in these past few days."

"This person also graduated from East Han Academy. After graduating, he first went to the Forbidden Army, and then to the City Guard Army, where he was promoted all the way up and currently holds a General position."

"Wang Zhen's family is not considered a Noble; they're local landlords, selling Spiritual Flowers and Spiritual Grass, with a business not too large."

"His wife is also an Immortality Cultivator with not very high cultivation, working at East Han Academy as an assistant, not a teacher."

"Currently, they have a son and a daughter, both only six years old. They are twins."

"Wang Zhen has three mistresses who have good relations with his wife. These three mistresses are not Immortality Cultivators, living in Wang Zhen's residence, but I can't find their background statuses."

"Regarding the flaw you mentioned about him, Boss... I haven't found specifics yet; I only know Wang Zhen fakes claiming military pay, roughly cashing out several tens of thousands of Mid Grade Spirit Stones monthly."

Little Zhuang handed the report he had written to Qin Tian, "This is about all I've found."

In the room, there were only Qin Tian and Little Zhuang. Qin Tian didn't hold back, directly saying: "Old Three, I need Wang Zhen's flaw, something shameful. I want to dig it up. Of course, if he turns out to be absolutely a good person, I can try other ways. What do you think of Wang Zhen as a person?"

"On the surface, he seems okay." Little Zhuang said.

"On the surface? What do you mean?" Qin Tian asked.

Little Zhuang rested his head on his hand, saying, "Although I have indeed found no major issues during my investigation, I just feel this person is somewhat fake, somewhat hypocritical. I heard from Wang Zhen's neighbor that Wang Zhen generally seems good, but they often hear his wife's crying at night... very strange."

"Then this person should have problems." Qin Tian touched his nose.

Little Zhuang also frowned: "Based on my many years of investigating people, Wang Zhen could be a hypocrite, but very intelligent, hiding very well. I haven't discovered any issues yet, so... can't produce direct evidence."

"Haha, this Wang Zhen is quite handsome. Just, in the look between his brows, the expression he has, whenever I see him, I feel he looks less like a man, more like a woman... But then again, he is married and has twins, so I can't understand..."

Qin Tian had met Wang Zhen several times, and Wang Zhen was very delicate, in his forties, looking like a young man in his early thirties. His prestige in the City Guard Army was average, but he was quite well received at the City Lord Mansion and the Governor's Mansion.

It was said that Wang Zhen could enter the Governor's Mansion without a report.

"I feel this guy should have a problem too, but where is the problem?"

Qin Tian was troubled; the issue right before him is this Wang Zhen; he must find a flaw, and a major flaw at that.

That flaw must be one known to Xiao Zhan who could be enraged by it, enraged enough to shake Wang Zhen's position in competing for the East Gate General!

If this happens, Qin Tian will have a chance to rise!

"Looks like I have to personally investigate." Qin Tian stretched lazily, his gaze sharp.
