Chapter 351: Chapter 351: The Second Meeting with Father-in-Law (9)

Fu Yubo originally had some documents in his possession, but to be on the safe side, he needed to have the data submitted from each department for verification.

The Engineering Design Department was relatively cooperative. A phone call was made, and they agreed to have someone deliver the sorted documents.

As for the Investment Solicitation Department, seizing the chance to give them trouble seemed almost a given.

Tang Qingzhong first called Director Meng of the Investment Solicitation Department. The old boss spoke politely, after all, he was a middle manager by this point. Director Meng promptly agreed and told them to come over.

So, Tang Qingzhong and Gu Nuan went back to the Investment Solicitation Department to get the documents.

At that moment, Director Meng had seemingly disappeared.

Only the team members of Group One were there.

Qiu Wenduo saw Tang Qingzhong and, as enthusiastic as ever, came over, clapped Tang Duck on the shoulder, and said, "Long time no see, old colleague, come on, let’s have a coffee—"

Tang Qingzhong, pulled along by him, could only protest, "Hey, we haven’t finished our business yet."

"What business are we doing?" Qiu Wenduo said, "Such trivial matters should be left to the juniors. — Xu Zhilin, go bring out the documents."

Xu Zhilin seemed to actually go move the document boxes, seeing this, Tang Qingzhong thought, they wouldn’t be foolish enough to offend Chen Jiaming, right? After all, the documents were required for a loan that Chen Jiaming had ostensibly secured.

Tang Qingzhong was led away by Qiu Wenduo. Xu Zhilin went to the storage to move the documents.

Gu Nuan looked around, seeing no one, and felt an opportunity had come.

She casually walked to the office area of their previous Team Three. Since there was no official claim to disband Investment Solicitation Team Three, everything belonging to their team was left undisturbed in place.

The desks were covered in a layer of dust, seemingly untouched by cleaning.

Gu Nuan went behind Fang Yongxing’s desk, looked up first to quickly locate the camera in the office positioned in this direction. After finding the right position, she piled up a stack of books on the desk and used the method as Fang Yongxing had described to block the camera’s view. Then, pretending to pick something up, she ducked under the desk.

It appeared that no one had touched this place, as it was stuffed with miscellaneous items, and the somewhat smelly slippers that Fang Yongxing kept in the office were squished together.

Anyone who saw this would probably think Fang Yongxing was rough and careless, and wouldn’t even consider that in the midst of what appeared to be trash, there actually lay a hidden key.

Gu Nuan put her hand inside the slippers and felt the sticky key covered with something, then pried it out with force, securing the key in her palm.

As she was about to straighten her back, a sudden cold gust swept past her from behind.

She turned her head and saw Xu Zhilin.

She didn’t know when he had returned, but undoubtedly, he had come up behind her silently and now watched her with a triumphant expression, as if catching someone red-handed.

Gu Nuan could speculate that they had probably planned to search Fang Yongxing’s belongings all along, or maybe they already had, but found nothing. They wouldn’t think to look inside Fang Yongxing’s stinking slippers.

So they could only wait for the members of Team Three to return and reveal their own mistakes, creating the illusion that everyone had left.

This place proved to be one where not the slightest negligence could be afforded.

"What are you doing here, Gu Nuan?" Xu Zhilin asked, with the corner of his mouth turned up slightly.

Gu Nuan stood up, her expression cold.

"Oh right, you can’t hear," Xu Zhilin gestured simply, pointing and asking, "What are you doing here, bending over?"

Gu Nuan picked up a magazine in her hand, "Group Leader Fang asked me to find this, to take it to him in the hospital. He seems very bored there, wants to use this to pass the time."
