“If you all feel so energetic, why don’t you focus more on finding our next project? I will take care of this.”
He stood up and left, with Huo Li trailing behind him.
Huo Li followed him back to his office and switched on his laptop. He typed furiously on the keyboard and stared intently on the screen.
In contrast, Huo Yunting looked relaxed and carefree. He had a cup of coffee sent to his office and took his time nursing his drink.
“I’m done, Brother Ting!” Huo Li turned the laptop to Huo Yunting. “The person who sent the email to Ge Yu is… your wife.”
“…”
Huo Li could practically feel the other man simmering. Of all the people, why was it Lu Zhaoyang?!
“It might have happened this way — she visited the office while you were away and made a copy of the documents. After all, she is familiar with Thunderbolt Corp.”
Huo Li watched the other man kept quiet and continued hesitantly, “Maybe she is trying to get revenge! Or maybe she was thinking of improving her standing in her new company by impressing her boss…”
Huo Yunting was staring into space, his fingers tapping lightly on the desk as he considered the possibilities.
“Boss…” Huo Li stood up slowly. “I’ll go check the CCTV now.”
“She has worked here for a long time. If it was she, she would know about the CCTV as well as you would.” He put down his coffee and said, “Get out.”
“You still look handsome when you’re angry, Brother Ting!” Huo Li said before he bolted out of the office with his laptop.
In another corner of the city, Lu Zhaoyang was about to head home when she received a call from Xiang Jinxi.
“Let’s have dinner together. I have something to discuss.”
He hung up before she could reply.
Lu Zhaoyang turned to Yan Se and said, “I have a date tonight. You should go have a nice meal too.”
“No can do. My boss tasked me to protect you.” Yan Se took out a lollipop from her pocket. “Who’s your date?”
“It’s not a date date. My boss wants to discuss something with me. It’s out of the blue, I know.”
“Fine, you go ahead then!”
Yan Se waved her goodbye and pretended to leave. Accompanying Lu Zhaoyang during her meeting with Xiang Jinxi was not exactly appropriate, so she would follow her instead.
Lu Zhaoyang briefly packed her things and headed downstairs. Xiang Jinxi’s assistant drove her to the meeting place.
It was a refined Western restaurant. There were two other waiters with them in their private booth.
Lu Zhaoyang studied the crystal wine glass, already filled with red wine, and the exquisite dishes served on the table. She felt even more confused.
“President, are we celebrating something today? This looks extravagant.”
Lu Zhaoyang could not help but ask.
Sitting opposite her was Xiang Jinxi. He raised his glass to her and said plainly, “Our company recently won a tender for a new project. We have you to thank.”
“Me?” Lu Zhaoyang looked at the raised glass suspiciously. She was not handling any new projects. “President, are you sure you got this right?”
As expected, she did not know.
Xiang Jinxi took a sip from his glass and said crisply, “You sent me an email.”
Lu Zhaoyang told herself to calm down. What email was this?
She froze with her glass still in her hand. After a long while, she said slowly, “I did not send you any emails recently, of that I am certain. What project did our company win, if I may ask?”
“The Golden Territory.”
… What?!
