Chapter 402: Chapter 402 Call Her Aunt (2)

Sister Yao’s mouth was wide enough to swallow an elephant.

Seeing her nearly scared silly, Zhan Dapeng couldn’t help but pat her on the shoulder and call her back to her senses. He whispered, "Very few people know about this. No one will talk, and there are reasons for that. It’s not that our Director Xiao wants to hide it; you just need to be clear about it in your heart."

Sister Yao came back to her senses, and after seeming to think it through, she slowly nodded, her brows furrowed.

One could say, the last time Gu Nuan saw her husband, the perplexed expression on his face seemed to have found a clear explanation today.

Though it was unknown how Gu Nuan ended up marrying Young Master Xiao, it was undeniable that such a marriage was beyond the imagination of most people, the differences were too great, and most would undoubtedly express doubts and objections, let alone the Xiao Family members themselves.

Thinking this, Sister Yao inadvertently met the gaze of the man in the room.

Xiao Yebai’s narrowly squinted, beautiful eyes were filled with a unique charm, touching them, one felt one’s heart race in fear, as if targeted by something terrifying.

Sister Yao truly hadn’t expected that this legendary profligate heir could possess such boldness, being scared to the point of foolishness again. Then, she nodded towards Zhan Dapeng, saying, "I understand, Director, Director Xiao, I will keep the secret tightly." Having said that, she didn’t know which way to walk, realizing she had inadvertently stumbled upon a significant secret, she definitely couldn’t just walk out and raise suspicions.

Zhang Xiaolian immediately led her towards a less noticed passageway.

Zhan Dapeng held the folder she had handed over and began to look through it.

Xiao Yebai, with his legs crossed, asked him, "What is it?"

The other was in a hurry to find him, and didn’t even dare to keep the items with himself; this thing must be very important.

Zhan Dapeng responded, "Financial statements."

It turned out to be about money, the most deadly kind.

"If one goes missing, and if the department has to take responsibility, all personnel bonuses would be docked," Zhan Dapeng shrugged his shoulders and then took out the most important invoice from the folder, putting it straight into his inner pocket.

Seeing this, Xiao Yebai said, "Wait a moment while Xiaolian drives me back, you go ahead to the Finance Department and sort out the trouble."

"Don’t worry, brother," Zhan Dapeng said with a smile, patting his pocket, "as if there’s anyone in the company who would dare to snatch this from me?"

"Snatch, maybe not, but what about steal?"

"Brother, do you think everyone is as crafty as you? Whoever steals this from me must have a reason. It’s just payment for the project, it has to be paid sooner or later, there’s no escaping it."

Xiao Yebai seemed not to have listened to him anymore, his gaze pondering something.

"Brother, aren’t you going to see sister-in-law at the office?" As he said this, Zhan Dapeng suddenly remembered something, "Right, the third called from the Baltic Sea."

"Oh."

"He said no one answered your phone. I said, brother must be in bed with sister-in-law, time difference."

Xiao Yebai looked up, seeing the other’s mischievous grin, and threw him a glare, "Making fun of me is fine, but if you dare to joke about your sister-in-law, wait for her to severely punish you."

Those words made Zhan Dapeng look genuinely scared.

Financial Department

Gu Nuan walked out of Li Sitong’s office, and gave Chen Jiaming a slight nod, indicating she had heard everything.

Chen Jiaming said, "The place where Director Xiao works has not yet been communicated, you all wait for the notice. Then, arrange the tasks at hand, transfer the urgent work to colleagues. For the non-urgent, try to finish it yourself."
