Chapter 42 He is lying
Wang Fei looked through the crowd and locked onto a man. "Ms. Huang didn't come, but her husband did."
He said as he was about to go there, "I'll go and call him over."
Li Ziyu stopped him and said, "Please don't worry, Mr. Wang. I still want to ask you about the listing."
She glanced at Lu Bai out of the corner of her eye, and the latter understood what she meant. She walked towards Mr. Huang's husband.
Wang Fei saw this, but he remained calm. "Are you planning a banquet, Mr. Li?"
Li Ziyu was somewhat helpless, "One should do his job according to his position, don't you think?"
When she said the second half of the sentence, she stared at Wang Fei's facial expression.
Wang Fei clenched the red wine glass with his fingertips. "No need to beat around the bush. Just ask whatever you want to ask before I don't want to call my lawyer."
Li Ziyu put down the AD calcium milk in her hand and went straight to the point, "Has your CEO Huang been killed?"
They are all smart people, and they all understand the underlying meaning. Beating around the bush will only cause more trouble.
Wang Fei took a sip of red wine and narrowed his eyes slightly. "I really can't contact her."
Li Ziyu's eyes reflected the light, "You didn't call the police because you were afraid of affecting the company's listing."
Wang Fei could not deny this statement, and he confirmed it in his tone, "Of course, this is something that all the senior executives of the company do not want to happen."
Li Ziyu couldn't help but feel a little bored when she heard such ambiguous words. "Then do you know that your boss is getting a divorce from her husband?"
Wang Fei was silent for a moment, "I don't know, Mr. Huang never talks about her private affairs."
He paused and asked tentatively, "We are not being summoned now, are we?"
Li Ziyu smiled and said, "Of course not. There was no recording equipment or audio. It was just a normal chat."
She didn't stay for long because she had secretly made an appointment with a friend today, a junior employee in Wang Fei's company who Wang Fei didn't know.
She discovered this by accident. When she was browsing her Moments, she saw this junior high school classmate posted a photo of Wang Fei's company.
She also invited him over.
Li Ziyu walked slowly into the garden and watched the crowd for a long time.
"Zi Yu."
A voice that was familiar yet unfamiliar to her called her from behind.
Li Ziyu looked back, "Xiao Gao?"
Xiao Gao tied her hair into a ponytail and looked at her with envy, "Zi Yu, you are so beautiful now."
Li Ziyu pointed to the depths of the garden and asked, "Let's chat?"
The two walked to a cocktail bar and Xiao Gaoduan gave Li Ziyu a drink.
Li Ziyu waved his hands and said, "I don't want to drink anymore. My stomach is not feeling well."
She seemed to remember something and pointed at Wang Fei who was chatting happily inside, "He is the vice president of your company, right?"
Xiao Gao nodded, "Yes, but he probably doesn't know me. I'm just an intern."
Calculating the time, now is indeed the right time for them to graduate.
But Li Ziyu was just incredible. He completed his studies early, earned a bachelor's, master's, and doctorate degree, and joined the police force right after returning to China.
Li Ziyu picked up the water cup and poured a glass of warm water. "I invited his whole family, but he came alone."
When she spoke, she deliberately made her tone sound a little impatient, as if she was offended by Wang Fei.
Xiao Gao whispered in her ear mysteriously, "No, he is not married. He used to hang out with the company's big boss every day. People in the company said he was supported by the boss."
Li Ziyu raised his eyebrows, somewhat curiously, "Big boss? Is it Mr. Huang?"
"Yes."
"Doesn't she have a husband and children?"
"Isn't that a divorce?"
Li Ziyu's eyes darkened, "How do you know?"
Xiao Gao was a little surprised. "Who in the company doesn't know about this? A few days ago, the couple had a big fight in the company."
As she spoke, she pulled Li Ziyu's arm and whispered, "Don't tell Mr. Wang. He strictly forbade us to tell anyone."
Li Ziyu patted the back of her hand and said, "I won't say anything. You play first. I have something else to do."
She saw Lu Bai walking out of the crowd.
I guess he has finished asking questions.
Lu Bai looked at the water in Li Ziyu's hand and was a little confused for a moment, "Is this liquor or water?"
Li Ziyu took a big sip, "White wine."
Lu Bai leaned over to the cup and sniffed it, "Isn't this water?"
"I know, but you still ask."
"......"
Lu Bai opened a can of milk and asked, "Why don't you drink today?"
His hands habitually rested on her shoulders.
[Didn't you tell me to drink less? Wait... I'm actually listening to her? Damn it! No, my rebellious girl persona is going to collapse, I have to save face.]
Lu Bai blinked and thought, "What's wrong with Nannan listening to her sister?"
Li Ziyu clenched his teeth and asked unhappily, "What did you ask?"
Lu Bai took a sip of AD calcium and said, "That man's name is He Hong, the boss of a steel company. He won't talk about his wife's affairs."
She pointed at the other woman and said, "But she seems to know He Hong. I heard from her that He Hong's steel company has been losing money and it is all thanks to his wife's subsidy."
Wang Fei and He Hong both tried to avoid talking about Mr. Huang's disappearance.
Li Ziyu walked upstairs slowly. She said, "Wang Fei is lying. Judging from his reaction, he must have known that He Hong wanted a divorce, but he lied to me and said he didn't know."
"His method was very crude. It didn't seem to be carefully planned, but rather improvised."
Otherwise, such a crude lie could be exposed with just a little investigation by Li Ziyu.
The two walked into a study room, Lu Bai closed the door, and she sat down at the desk carelessly.
She sorted out the clues that were not really clues now, "He Hong wants a divorce, divorce will affect the company's listing, Wang Fei lied..."
She picked up the pen at hand, put it aside, and placed the ink opposite it.
Pointing at the bottle of ink, he said, "Let's assume the deceased is Mr. Huang."
He moved his finger towards the pen again, "The murderer is Wang Fei."
Lu Baihuan crossed his arms, "What's the motive? Did Wang Fei learn that Mr. Huang was getting a divorce and it would affect the company's listing? The company doesn't belong to Wang Fei either."
Li Ziyu picked up the pen holder beside him and placed it between the two people. "So there is another He Hong. This He Hong must have played a certain role in the connection between these two people."
Lu Bai held his chin up, "But He Hong is getting a divorce, so normally he should get a lot of property, right? Why did he kill someone?"
The tightly closed study door shook slightly, and Li Ziyu stared at it.
Lu Bai protected Li Ziyu behind him and looked towards the door vigilantly.
[The wind on the second floor can't blow into the corridor. Someone is eavesdropping.]
She glanced at Lu Bai, and the latter understood.
Lu Bai half-opened the door and looked outside. In the empty corridor, he could only hear the laughter of the guests downstairs.
She pressed the miniature earphones in her ears and said, "Zhang Hai, there's something going on on the second floor, come up."
She turned to look at Li Ziyu, "You stay here."
Li Ziyu nodded obediently.
As soon as Lu Bai left, Li Ziyu looked at the slightly raised curtain on the side.
She said in a deep voice, "Come out."
