Qian Yikun stopped the car by the side of the road. Mo Fei glanced outside and was reassured that it was not a place that was convenient for him to murder and dump her body. Moreover, Qian Yikun might not be capable enough to kill her.
“Mo Fei, you’re no longer a child. I refuse to keep coming back to the same issue.” Qian Yikun let go of the steering wheel and looked at Mo Fei.
Mo Fei rolled her eyes but did not say anything.
“I know you can do it well.” There was a tinge of fatigue in Qian Yikun’s voice. He was already so busy with Wu Biao’s matter but he still had to worry about whether Mo Fei would make mistakes.
Yes, she could do it well, but that was not something that she wanted to do right now.
“That’s how stupid I am. It’s not like this is the first day you know this.” Mo Fei refused to admit defeat and could only stare back at him.
Qian Yikun inhaled sharply. “Do you know what you may be facing tomorrow? A large number of resignation letters will lose you a large number of clients. What will happen to your company then? Do you expect Gu Juexi to keep opening back doors for you?”
Mo Fei frowned.
She did not think of that.
“Yet, since Ding Jiaqi has already said all that, what else can I do?” Mo Fei replied in a frustrated tone. “If you’re asking me to speak nicely to those people, I can’t do it.”
Getting her to lower her head and say something nice to someone was harder than killing her.
Qian Yikun took another deep breath. “Mo Fei, I can only tell you that if the senior employees leave, they’ll definitely take a large number of customers with them. If someone tries to poach people maliciously at this time, Ding Enterprise will quickly fall into a predicament.”
Mo Fei lowered her eyes. She could understand what Qian Yikun was saying. He meant that the company could go bankrupt at any time in the duration of less than half a month in her hands.
To keep the vampires from asking for more money, she would run her father’s company into bankruptcy. Good, that could work.
Qian Yikun looked at how Mo Fei’s lowered her head. It was rare to see her, who had always been lively, so quiet.
Qian Yikun sighed and said, “Let’s go eat first. Since things have come to this, there’s no hurry.”
Mo Fei did not say anything. It was a jumbled-up mess in her heart.
Qian Yikun brought her to a hotel and looked around. He took off the outerwear of his police uniform and hung it at the side.
Supporting her chin with one hand, Mo Fei looked at Qian Yikun as he did all that. “Are you not allowed to eat out?”
“There’s no such rule.” Police officers were not prohibited from eating out, especially not at a high-end hotel. However, it might affect other people negatively, so he took off his jacket and placed it on an inconspicuous seat.
Qian Yikun took the menu and ordered a few dishes that Mo Fei liked to eat. He did not bring anything up about the company. He just wanted her to have a good meal.
Mo Fei continued to stare at Qian Yikun with her hand under her chin. There were heavy dark circles under his eyes. It seemed like he had not been resting for a while now.
“How long has it been since you last had any rest?”
Qian Yikun handed the menu to the waiter. After the waiter left, he said, “I’ve been sleeping in the car for the past few days. There’s no one at Wu Biao’s house. Lil Zhao and I waited for a week before someone came.”
In other words, he had not gotten any rest for a week.
“I feel that this lead related to Ding Junchi will get us something. You should be on guard against him. Be wary of him causing trouble for you behind your back. He is Ding Jiaqi’s biological elder brother. If Ding Jiaqi tells Ding Junchi about this incident in the company, he may try to curry favor with those senior employees if he’s smart.”
Mo Fei paused. “What do you mean? Isn’t his family in the textile business?”
Qian Yikun looked at Mo Fei. He stared at his silly girl. Oh, how silly she was, indeed.
