Wen Jingyi and Mo Yunfan took a long time to eat.

With Bai Mengqiu's interruption, there are only a few people left in the cafeteria.

Her voice became clearer, and even a little sharp because of her exasperation.

Bai Mengqiu changed her gentle smile.

When she saw Mo Yunfan turn around, the corners of her lips curled up in a smile, her face full of arrogance: "Boss Mo, don't you care about such a small matter at all?"

"But be careful, even if an ant bites an elephant, it will kill him. Mr. Mo has deep roots, so be careful. By the time you discover it, it will be too late."

Mo Yunfan narrowed his eyes dangerously, his thin lips were pale and cold, and he took in Bai Mengqiu's confident look.

This was the first time he looked at Bai Mengqiu completely.

For some reason, Bai Mengqiu felt a little nervous.

Even the original arrogance was almost gone.

She bit her lip and pretended to be calm, inviting Mo Yunfan, "Mr. Mo, if you want to know what I know, you can come and cooperate with me at any time."

I am definitely better than that useless housewife Wen Jingyi!

Mo Yunfan's thin lips opened and closed lightly, and he turned away indifferently:

"Miss Bai, please leave as soon as possible after your meal. Xingyun Company does not allow family members to visit. If you do this again, you will be asked to leave immediately."

After leaving, neither of them mentioned Bai Mengqiu's episode, and they remained silent all the way.

It was not until he returned to the office that Mo Yunfan took the initiative to call Wen Jingyi and explained to her:

"Bai Mengqiu was talking about a branch company project being intercepted. The news was only sent back this morning. She was able to get the information so early, so she's most likely been keeping an eye on this matter."

What is the reason that makes Bai Mengqiu, a young lady who is obsessed with climbing up the social ladder, pay attention to the company's cooperation?

"Have you found out which company snatched the contract?"

The assistant had already delivered the information before the meal. Mo Yunfan handed it to Wen Jingyi and said, "It's an overseas company. It doesn't have core competitiveness. It's almost dropped in from nowhere."

"Can they parachute in and take the project from you?"

Wen Jingyi raised her eyebrows subtly, her tone thoughtful.

Such existence is rare.

Especially after Wen Jingyi turned over a page of information and saw the address of the other party's company, she could not hide her surprise.

Wen Jingyi flipped through the pages curiously, and when she saw the column for shares, her attitude became meaningful.

"This company had been struggling to survive, but it was only thanks to a wave of foreign investment this year that it was revitalized and had the strength to launch this new investment."

As for the investor.

It’s actually a Southeast Asian company?

"This Southeast Asian company is registered in Fiji. In the past two years, the country has lowered tariffs and opened up many registration conditions for overseas companies, which has triggered a wave of registrations."

Wen Jingyi nodded: "I've heard about this. At that time, Shen...Shen Zekai also registered one."

In other words, Shen Zekai was stubborn and Wen Jingyi was unable to persuade him.

Subsequent developments were just as Wen Jingyi had worried.

Although Fiji seems to be open to registration and is ready to actively attract investment, it actually does not have the national strength to support it.

There is no business environment.

Before long, many companies delisted, leaving a mess behind.

Shen Zekai's company soon became an unfinished project, and before it was delisted, it was extorted a penalty by the local government, which was in financial deficit.

In such a place, there is actually a place that can inject capital into the country.

And also help to fight against Mo Yunfan's investors?

But after all, it was foreign capital, so no further information could be found, and Wen Jingyi could not find any useful information in her mind.

She returned the information to Mo Yunfan and teased curiously, "You have quite a few competitors. There's even a mysterious investor from Southeast Asia coming to China to test the waters."

Mo Yunfan's fingertips froze.

His throat suddenly tightened, he lowered his eyes and calmly put away the information, his heart sinking.

Wen Jingyi shouldn't be allowed to see this information.

Southeast Asia……

It was the lair of the enemy he had encountered in his childhood.

That group of people had come to the country, and the time was exactly when the Zhou couple died unexpectedly.

After many years, that group of people had been quiet for a long time since they were suppressed, but unexpectedly they suddenly made a comeback.

He was actually careless and let Wen Jingyi know of his presence.

The two of them were silent for a long time, and Wen Jingyi felt strange.

She waved her hand in front of Mo Yunfan: "What's wrong? Did you remember something important?"

"fine."

"Really?" Wen Jingyi asked suspiciously, "You don't have any idea about this foreign company? Could it be a deliberate revenge by a former competitor?"

His tone was cold as he put away the information. "Perhaps. Xingyun has been established for many years and has touched many people's cakes. It's difficult to pinpoint the other party's origins for a while."

Mo Yunfan spoke in a normal tone.

Wen Jingyi suddenly had an idea and looked up at Mo Yunfan.

What he said... was too unconfident.

Is it really that I can’t find the other person’s origin, or is it that I can’t tell him/herself?

Wen Jingyi thought that she didn't know Mo Yunfan well enough, but she was not completely unable to distinguish.

She remained noncommittal, her attitude suddenly becoming distant. "Really?"

The distance in our hearts suddenly widened.

Wen Jingyi lost the mood to continue researching and retreated to the sofa. She said calmly, "Then you should be careful. If necessary, you can go find Bai Mengqiu and find out what she knows."

Mo Yunfan frowned and looked at Wen Jingyi.

She was clearly displeased.

He opened his mouth, but was rarely able to speak.

Mo Yunfan knew how much Wen Jingyi cared about her adoptive parents, and he saw it all.

If she knew that her enemy had appeared at the time of her adoptive parents' death...

With her character of not trusting anyone.

I only instantly thought of what I once said: the Zhou couple saved me.

It is very likely that the two Zhous died at the hands of that group of people.

With Wen Jingyi's keenness, she would have guessed it.

The atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.

After a long while, Mo Yunfan said in a low voice: "Sorry."

"You don't have to apologize," Wen Jingyi took a deep breath and sat up straight. "I admit that I was unhappy about your concealment, but I wasn't particularly angry. I believe you had a reason for not telling me."

As for this reason...

Feeling her calmness return, she looked away and said, "You can tell me when you've thought it through."

"……good."

He held Wen Jingyi's hand, restrained his strength, and said solemnly: "I will never harm you. When you trust me more, I will tell you the news about this company."

Wen Jingyi pulled her hand back and shook her head, "Continue looking up information."

As the two continued their investigation, Wen Jingyi realized belatedly that this was not the only time that Xingyun's cooperation had been snatched away recently.

But they were all low-cost projects in the past, so if they were lost, they were lost, and they never came to Mo Yunfan’s attention.

And then look into it further.

I discovered that all these small companies competing with Nebula have Southeast Asian roots.
