Chapter 39 The Universe Had a Sense of Humor
Seeing that someone came to bother her with such a trivial stuff, Sarah Shen put on an irritated look
and said, "Andy Wei, how long have you been working here? You should know better than bothering
me with such trivial problem. Or have you found this job too demanding and want to quit?"
After finishing her words, Sarah Shen lowered her head and returned to exchanging messages with her
best friend.
"Sarah, you have no idea how irritating that girl is."
"Well, Amy. Don't be mad. Didn't you say that today is about your family visiting the Mu clan? Don't let
this opportunity slip through your fingers. And don't forget to use what I have prepared for you."
"Haha, I've already told my sworn mother. She said she would help me..."
"That's good. Young Master Mu was just trying out something new. That's all. That's why he hasn't
broken the engagement yet. You understand that, right? Even a king would like to try out some homely
meals once in a while after all the dainty foods.
Andy Wei was deeply troubled by those words, as he could not afford to offend both sides.
This woman in front of him was not to be underestimated, for she, being a young and pretty girl, had
already risen to rank of Deputy Director-General after only two years in the bureau. She would not have
managed to pull this off without the influence of her powerful family.
However, she was indeed a bit high-maintenance and if someone ever did something that would upset
her, she would make this person's life very miserable.
"Well, Director Shen, those two down there should not be taken lightly. One of them called herself
Bonny Lu and she was one asking for the Director General Zhang, and the other one said she is the
Lady of the Mu clan."
"The Lady of the Mu clan? What Mu clan?"
The mentioning of the Mu clan stroke a deep chord with Sarah Shen and she lowered her cellphone
and asked.
"It's got to be the fiancee of the Young Master Mu, the CEO of the Mu company. It's been said that she
was engaged to the Young Master Mu."
Andy Wei could think of no other Mu clan that would dare to ask for files from the public security
bureau.
That girl downstairs wouldn't happen to be the Lady that Amy had described as being lost since birth
and raised in the slum, would she?
Amy Qi and Sarah Shen were good friends growing up and they were very close.
They were both the prides of their respective families, one being born into an educated family which for
generations has been following a career path in the political system, and the other being born into a
family of police background, with her father and grandfather all serving as the police chief once for
more than a decade.
Therefore, they had much in common in terms of character. Both were willful and aggressive, typical of
the well-endowed Ladies.
As Amy's best friend, Sarah Shen knew full well her love for Charles Mu and had been giving her
advises.
However, that Young Master Mu was too tough a nut to crack and her suggestions did not help much.
During Amy's stay in Britain, whenever Sarah Shen got in touch with her over the phone, she would
confide in Sarah her affection for Charles Mu.
Sarah had seen this Young Master Mu when she was with Amy. That man was so gorgeous that people
dare not look into his eyes and his tall nose and sexy lips would make a woman's heart race. However,
his gaze had always remained cold and forbidding.
Although Amy Qi had never won the favor of Charles Mu, there was no other woman around him either.
Therefore, whenever Amy was in a fret, Sarah Shen would try to soothe her nerve by pointing out that
there was no other woman more suited for Charles Mu.
Besides, Charles's mother was deeply fond of Amy, so much so that they had sworn to be mother and
daughter. Moreover, the two clan went back a long way and were very close. In this sense, Amy and
Charles were quite a match.
But as luck would have it, the unexpected Linda got in the way.
Just a couple days ago, Amy had called her, sobbing at the other end of the line and complaining about
how she felt heart-broken over the fact that Charles Mu was engaged to another woman... Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
It would seem that the universe did have a sense of humor.
She wanted to meet this mysterious fiancee in person and saw for herself what she was made of.
Where did she find the balls to steal Amy's man?
After making up her mind, Sarah Shen knocked on the edge of the table with her white and slender
finger and said, "Well, you tell them to wait."
"Do we have to prepare the files they want?" said Andy Wei after a bit hesitation.
"The files in the bureau are all confidential. They are not for any random people!"
... "Yes, ma'am!"
Andy Wei hurriedly backed out from the office in full sweat and then ran downstairs.
Meanwhile, Linda and Bun were sitting in the lounge, waiting and complaining about the long time that
police had taken to relay their request.
"Ladies, Our Director General is not present at this moment, but luckily we have the Deputy Director-
General, and I have already relayed your request to her." Andy Wei seemed ill at ease, totally dropping
the haughty attitude that he assumed when he was playing the computer game.
"That's enough. Just get on with your computer game. Playing games during work hour. What an
exemplary cop you are!" said Bun while patting on Andy Wei's shoulder with a smiling face.
However, he dared not follow that instruction, as he could clearly sense the threat behind those words.
It would not came as a surprise if he should piss himself during the night after this drama.
Given his previous attitude, he was afraid that this Lady of the Mu clan would speak ill of him in front of
Young Master Mu.
He hated to lose this secured job.
"Ladies, please... There is not much to do tonight and I've only played it for a little while. Please, have
mercy. I have a big family to provide for. My parents are at their fifties, retired and having no income.
My wife is at home attending to my two-year old child..."
Not knowing what to do, Andy Wei's face was all twisted.
"That's enough, Bun. Stop teasing him. Look how afraid he is..." said Linda, who could not help but
giggle.
After a glimpse at Linda, Andy Wei was impressed by the beauty of this Lady of the Mu clan. He
thought her to be very beautiful, especially when she smiled.
It was no wonder that Young Master Mu should be attracted to this woman, even though he was rarely
seen with a woman and was known for his high standard when it came to choosing his lover.
"Go on, off you go. I will let this one slide. I don't care what you do during work hour, but I warn you.
The police is supposed to serve the public, so act like a public servant and treat the common folk a bit
nicer, understand?" said Linda, whose tinny face suddenly put on a stern look.
Nodding his head in a flurry, Andy Wei looked like a little chick pecking at the rice.
It looked like he was off the hook. To him, this Lady of the Mu clan was pretty nice, unlike that one
upstairs, who were usually willful and nitpicking and would make a fuss over any trivial stuff.
So Andy Wei thought he should warn Linda in advance.
"Lady Mu, you are a nice fellow and I want to give you a bit of advice... The Deputy Director-General is
not a good-tempered fellow. When I relayed your request, she seemed not inclined to grant you that
favor, so..."
Linda and Bun exchanged a look.
"Don't say I told you that."
"What's the name of this Deputy Director-General?" asked Bun.
After thinking for a while, Andy Wei replied, "I think the name is 'Sarah Shen' "
Upon hearing this name, Bun immediately understood why they were kept waiting for so long and why
this Deputy Director-General never showed her face and refused to give them the files.
"Jeez, My Lady. I've heard of this Sarah Shen. She is the best friend of Amy Qi!"
