However, despite saying that she had obtained the first evidence…
“Where can I find the documents for Gemei’s IPO?”
Feeling a little troubled, her eyebrows knitted tightly together.
In this way, all thoughts of Ji Ziming and her wedding were cast at the back of her mind.
Her whole mind, at this moment, was occupied with thoughts of finding those pieces of evidence.
After all, many years had passed and Gemei Real Estate had already been dissolved! The core employees back then had also disappeared to some place.
With the capital being this huge, she truly did not know where to start looking.
“Sigh…”
Sighing, she kicked a small rock at her feet with a gloomy look.
“I really wonder how Qiao Jingyun learned about this… and she seems very clear on this than I am. How about…” I go beg her for the facts?
“No, no way! That woman never harbors any kind intention toward me, so unless there’s no other way, I shouldn’t go looking for her…”
She continued strolling along the empty street, feeling troubled over this, when, in fact, her problem was something very simple to others.
“Qiao Jingyun, why did you ask to meet me?”
In a silver-gray suit, Fu Mingxuan walked into the woman’s office with a fatigued look.
Surveying this pristine white office, he could not help but mock inwardly, This black-hearted and vicious woman isn’t suited for such an office…
“Are you that impatient to start working for me?”
Sitting in a swivel chair, the woman propped her chin on her hands and beamed at him.
“If you have nothing, I will be leaving.”
With that, he turned to make his way out of the door.
Seeing that he was truly about to leave, the woman’s smile instantly turned cold.
“Stand right there! You seem to have forgotten that I hold Pei Ge’s dirt in my hands!”
Her voice was cold and sharp.
“…”
The man gritted his teeth and halted his steps. Turning to face her with a cold look, he inquired blandly, “What matter do you have for me exactly?”
He took a deep breath.
His look of irritation and disgust made the woman feel angry.
“Don’t give me this attitude. I didn’t force you to be here. Isn’t this of your free will? If you don’t want, fine. You can leave now! Just looking at your face makes me lose my appetite!”
Her harsh words made him ball up his fists.
Inside, he kept advising and reminding himself to be calm.
Otherwise, Pei Ge would really be pushed down to the realms of despair by this woman!
“Fine. My fault.”
The moment he thought of her, he unhesitatingly yielded to this woman before him.
Unexpectedly, his concession made the woman feel more furious instead of satisfied.
“You’re truly despicable!”
Unable to get over her anger, she started insulting him.
“…”
Fu Mingxuan, who had never been scolded as thus by anyone before, exerted all his willpower to stand there listening without rebutting. He settled himself with looking at her coldly and indifferently as if she were air.
After insulting him for a while, the woman eventually found it to be boring. Hence, she shut her mouth and stared at him.
The more she looked at him, the more she found him to be annoying.
“Now, my task for you is to help Pei Ge solve the issue surrounding her father’s death. Cooperate with her fully, and that means you being with her every day!”
The man turned to look at her in shock at this.
“What are you after? Why do you want me to do that? What are you scheming again?!”
While this sounded as if she wanted him to help Pei Ge, how could this evil woman possibly be this kind?
This was totally impossible!
“Why? Can’t I help her?”
She chuckled and then winked at him adorably.
Alas, to the man, she just came across as fake, so her actions only made him want to puke in disgust.
“It’s already considered kind if you don’t harm her, so how is it possible for you to help her?” He smirked.
His apathetic look made the woman nudge her lips and coldly snort. “I’m helping her only because I find her to be too stupid. Even an outsider like me who doesn’t have a single relation to her family already knows that her father was murdered and even identified the murderer, yet what about your beloved woman? She’s so stupid for not knowing anything even now.”
His eyes widened at this revelation.
“Murdered?!”
He knew that Pei Ge’s father died over a decade ago and that he passed away in a car accident.
What was this murder about, then?
“Of course. That murderer is also not anyone but her uncle. Tsk, tsk, tsk! Truly very pitiful!”
Although she sounded as if she were pitying Pei Ge, her face had nothing but ridicule and wickedness.
“This… How is this possible?! if that is true, then why are you helping her?”
He refused to believe that this woman would kind-hearted enough to help Pei Ge find out the truth about her father’s death and help her exact vengeance.
In his eyes, if there was someone who wanted Pei Ge to die the most, then this person would certainly be this woman!
Thus, how was it possible for a woman who hated and resented another to lend the other a helping hand?
“Hur hur! I am not helping her. I only want to keep her busy so that she can’t go cling to my Ziming; that’s all!”
She shrugged at this point.
“You know it!”
“…”
Her explanation instantly caused a light bulb to light in the man’s mind.
“Hur hur! At the end of the day, I still stole her man, so I’ll leave this task to you, Fu Mingxuan!”
