Afterlife Department

Chapter 666  Service

To meet Song Mingfan's uncle, Gu Xingfeng and Jiang Xinduo had to wear casual clothes again, which actually made them look younger and more approachable. Meanwhile, Song Mingfan and Xiao Xie who came with them are also wearing casual clothes, so, they both look like college students. With this, the people's gazes can't help but fall on them because four handsome men with different temperaments are really eye-catching, as well as pleasing to the eyes.

Jiang Xinduo could barely maintain the expression on his face as the four of them walked towards a restaurant. Gu Xingfeng's expression had always been indifferent while Song Mingfan and Xiao Xie who came from two most prestigious schools, were very popular in their schools, even until now, so these two young men must already have gotten used to being stared at by many people.

So, it is only Jiang Xinduo right now who feels very uncomfortable. They may have been stared at by the employees of the Yuhua Entertainment before, but right now they are in an open space, in the public, so Jiang Xinduo feels like he had been exposed to the people.

"Chief…" he called. His voice sounds like he had been wronged.

Now that Jiang Xinduo called him 'chief' instead of 'boss', Gu Xingfeng knows that Jiang Xinduo really feels discomfort. "Bear with it for a while. We are almost in the restaurant." He told Jiang Xinduo.

Jiang Xinduo pursed his lips, then nodded, indicating that he understands. Gu Xingfeng sighed in relief and then looked at the two school heartthrobs, Song Mingfan and Xiao Xie, who are currently talking about their case.

"It can't be Lin Fengxin, but why does the daughter look so much like her?" Xiao Xie muttered as he crossed his arm and pinched his chin.

"She must have found some random girl with a good-looking face and wanted to look like her?" Song Mingfan asked when he recalled their target's picture that her mother had given them before.

Xiao Xie grimaced when he also recalled it.

Jiang Xinduo feels puzzled with their expressions. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your target?" he curiously asked.

"Well…" Xiao Xie glanced at Song Mingfan before he took out his phone and showed a picture to Jiang Xinduo.

"… oh. No wonder that she is desperate to change her face." Jiang Xinduo said with a complicated expression on his face after he saw the girl's face. "But, even if she had undergone a plastic surgery, her other facial features should remain, right?" he asked. "However, her face became similar to Li Fengxin's, who even have a different shape of face as hers." He frowned.

They all fell silent as they entered the restaurant.

"Right… we still don't know what this girl's name is?" Jiang Xinduo asked.

"It's – " Xiao Xie was about to speak when he suddenly stopped. His expression changed.

Gu Xingfeng stopped walking and he turned when he noticed that something is wrong. "What's the matter?" he asked as he looked at Xiao Xie.

Xiao Xie didn't answer and just looked at him. Gu Xingfeng's expression changed when he seemed to understand something.

Jiang Xinduo isn't stupid. He recalled that Song Mingfan's and Xiao Xie's case is related to supernatural, too. "Xiao Song." He called. "Tell me what the name of your target." He said. His expression is serious.

Song Mingfan's expression turned grave since he realized it, too. He glanced at Xiao Xie before he turned back to Jiang Xinduo. But, just as he was about to say the name of the girl, a voice spoke behind them.

"No need to say it. You won't be able to say it." It was the voice of an old man.

The four of them turned. "Uncle." Song Mingfan called when he recognized the person.

Uncle Song is around sixties, and he looks like a scholar with his eyeglasses and tang suit, making him look like someone who came out of the comics or dramas.

"Hello, Mr. Song." Gu Xingfeng and Jiang Xinduo greeted.

Xiao Xie was about to greet, too, when uncle Song stopped him. "You call me 'uncle'." Uncle Song told Xiao Xie.

Xiao Xie was puzzled and he looked at Song Mingfan who was just silent. Meanwhile, Gu Xingfeng and Jiang Xinduo seemed to understand something and their expressions looked complicated.

"… uncle." Xiao Xie called, in the end.

Uncle Song seems pleased as he smiled at Song Mingfan who ignored him. "Ai, you child. I told you that you don't need to serve the country yet you insisted after you learned that you have a lot of yang energy." He said and sighed. Then, he recalled that they are still outside so he told them to follow him.

Gu Xingfeng and Jiang Xinduo silentluy followed behind while listening to Xiao Xie ask Song Mingfan.

"Why did your uncle tell me to call him 'uncle', too?" Xiao Xie looked puzzled.

"You are the same age as me so there is no problem of calling him 'uncle'." Song Mingfan explained with a deadpan expression on his face.

Gu Xingfeng and Jiang Xinduo snickered while Xiao Xie, although still feels that it is strange, nodded in understanding. The waiter opened the door and they were led into a garden with a wooden bridge and a small pond beneath it. They also saw a pavilion not far.

Jiang Xinduo and Xiao Xie were surprised, thinking that uncle Song really is living in an ancient era as they looked around the garden. "This place is beautiful." They said as they looked around.

"Thank you. I also like this place." Uncle Song and smiled, feeling satisfied with their reactions. He led them to the pavilion where the waiters and waitresses who are wearing traditional clothing, too, served their food when they saw that they arrived.

"They also wear traditional clothing?" Gu Xingfeng was surprised this time. This restaurant has an amazing service.

"They exclusively serve in this area of the restaurant to make the customers feel the atmosphere of this area." Uncle Song explained as he sat on his seat. "Let us eat first before we talk." He said.

Gu Xingfeng, Jiang Xinduo, Song Mingfan and Xiao Xie nodded in agreement before they lifted their chopsticks and then started to eat.

Yuhua Entertainment.

"The boss has left this noon?" Su Xin's assistant asked after she asked her friend from the secretarial department.

"Yes. Boss was in a hurry and his expression is dark." Her friend answered. Then, she lowered her voice. "We have heard that he called his son's name, so we guessed that it was his son who called him, and something happened in their home." She explained.

Mo Yuan has already graduated from college and is also working in the Yuhua Entertainment to train himself. But, he is closer to his mother, Mo Xi, than to his father, Mo Yang. Thus, when he heard the housekeeper's call that his mother had an accident at home, he immediately stopped working overtime and went to the hospital where they sent his mother after he sent a message to his father, who was still at the company at that time. But, his father didn't answer, so he thought that there were important documents that his father needed to do. He just didn't know that his father is really 'doing' something, but this something is actually 'someone'.

"I see…" Su Xin's assistant muttered before she went to the company's canteen where Su Xin is eating, making her image being a down-to-earth goddess.

Su Xin, at this time, is talking to her manager who just returned from abroad to settle another endorsement for her.

"Another actor entered the crew?" Su Xin is referring to the 'Youths and Dreams' drama.

Her manager nodded. "En." He nodded in affirmation. "The director is very strict in picking actors because this is a half-xianxia and half-palace drama." He said as he looked at her. "Unlike you, the female lead, who is a noble daughter that was about to enter a palace as a concubine but escaped and wandered into jianghu yet doesn't know any martial arts, the rest of the cast had to learn martial arts, preferably ones who already know it." He explained. "So, the director is very picky. But, he is lucky this time since he found an actor who knows martial arts. He might become the male lead." He told her.

Su Xin's brow raised. "There are people in the crew who bought their way in. But, this actor is likely to be the male lead?" she was surprised.

"Although the director can also be bought, he can forsake money for art." Her manager said. "Also, this actor, aside from knowing martial arts, he also has a strong backing due to his company, which bested the other actors who bought their way in." he explained. "Not to mention, he also has impeccable acting skills, comparable to yours." He looked at her.

"Oh? Who is he?" Su Xin looks interested and she smiled.

"Yu Yan, whose company also is now under Mr. Glenn." Her manager answered.
