Chapter 92: Chapter 84: You’re Welcome
"Is the matter taken care of?" Xu Jingsong leaned against the hospital bed.
"Yes, Mr. Xu, but... nothing was extracted from him; that guy might truly be clueless."
"You mean, he isn’t the leak?"
Xu Jingsong’s tone suddenly turned cold.
Cui Jizhong broke out in a cold sweat on his back, but still mustered the courage to speak.
"Yes... yes, Mr. Xu!"
"Oh? Since he isn’t the leak, are you suggesting it might be me?" Xu Jingsong glared at Cui Jizhong.
"This... that’s surely impossible." Cui Jizhong’s back sweated even more.
"Is it?" Xu Jingsong sneered, slowly rising to his feet and walking over to Cui Jizhong.
"Then tell me, if it’s neither him nor me, who on earth could it be?"
Cui Jizhong felt bitter inside.
He clearly understood that the blame would either fall on Yellow Hair or himself, Cui Jizhong.
But he truly didn’t have the courage to deceive Xu Jingsong.
"Mr. Xu, I don’t know where the problem exactly lies, but I think it might not be caused by human leakage."
Xu Jingsong stared at him for a long time; then his expression slightly softened, and he gently patted his shoulder.
"Good, you should be grateful that you did not lie to me.
If you had spoken even a single falsehood just now, I really would have had to investigate you thoroughly."
Cui Jizhong shuddered inside.
It appeared someone had already reported the interrogation of Yellow Hair to Xu Jingsong...
"Mr. Xu, you and the chairman have been exceptionally gracious to the Cui family; I would never dream of betraying the Xu family!"
"You have been with me for many years, I can trust your loyalty, but after two consecutive failures, I have started to doubt your competence! Jizhong, you have disappointed me!"
Cui Jizhong hung his head. "Mr. Xu, I will continue the investigation and clarify this matter as soon as possible!"
Losing trust in his loyalty was as serious as losing trust in his competence for him.
"Mr. Xu... there’s another matter that I might need to report to you." Cui Jizhong cautiously observed Xu Jingsong’s expression.
Though he didn’t want to upset him at this moment, this issue could potentially be more serious.
"Speak!"
"That... Gao Yuan’s lawyer just informed us they hope to negotiate an out-of-court settlement tomorrow.
We have already declined each other’s previous out-of-court settlement proposals, so their sudden request likely means something has changed.
I fear that the agreement... might have fallen into Gao Yuan’s hands..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jingsong’s face contorted.
This was really a case of being too clever by half, losing his wife and soldiers too...
"Bang!" Within the hospital room, came a loud noise of something being smashed.
...
Meanwhile, just outside the hospital entrance, Lin Wei had just stepped out of his car.
His eyes sparkled with excitement.
An opportunity!
A chance to soar to the skies was right in front of him.
If he could seize it, he might be able to rely on this news to cling to the big tree of Xu Group!
Yuan Li was once glorious; wasn’t it because he had the Xu family backing him?
Previously, Yuan Li stood between them, but now that Yuan Li had been incarcerated, he could very well take his place and become a partner to the Xu family.
If he had the Xu Group’s connections and resources, why would he still be a mere ordinary squad member after four years?
Lin Wei’s eyes brimmed with ambition.
The world is so vast, no matter how great my ambition, I’m sure it can accommodate it!
But before his proud stride could take him into the hospital, a soft voice came from behind.
"Lin Wei, where are you going?"
Lin Wei froze in his tracks.
He turned his neck stiffly and saw Wang Zhao Ping glaring at him from behind.
"Captain?!," Lin Wei’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat.
"Lin Wei, what is it? Got a relative or friend in the hospital? Rushing here right after work?"
"Ah... yes, a friend of mine is hospitalized. I just came to check on him, haha!" Lin Wei said with a forced laugh.
"Is that so? Coming to the hospital to visit and yet not bringing any gifts? That’s rather impolite." Wang Zhao Ping eyed him somberly.
"Right! Look at me, I was in such a hurry I even forgot that; I’ll go out and buy some Apples right now." Lin Wei slapped his forehead.
"Lin Wei!"
Lin Wei’s steps halted.
"I remember that Xu Jingsong was admitted to this hospital last night, wasn’t he? Your friend, his last name wouldn’t happen to be Xu, would it?"
Lin Wei’s mind buzzed.
Why? Why would he know?
I haven’t even done anything yet!
"Captain... captain, you misunderstand, I..."
"Whether I misunderstand or not, you know in your heart," Wang Zhao Ping’s gaze was sharp.
He sneered, "You think you can act unnoticed, not realizing you’ve already been watched, and they’ve seen through your little scheme."
Someone watching? Who?
Lin Wei’s back broke into a cold sweat.
"Lin Wei, you know very well the crime of leaking our internal information to external parties.
Today, whether you enter that door or choose to stay out, I can’t control your path in life, nor am I responsible for it.
But I do have a piece of advice, what kind of person is Xu Jingsong? Could anyone who left him with a downcast fate be ordinary? What kind of interests are involved here? What powers are involved?"
