Ever since Jiang Luoning moved to Muningyuan, Fu Linxiao has never worked overtime again. He finishes work early every day and goes home to accompany the little girl.
But on this day, the little girl who was thinking about what to eat in the evening suddenly received a call from Fu Linxiao, who said that he would be back very late because he had several contracts to deal with tonight, and asked her to wait for him at home and not to run around.
Although Jiang Luoning still felt a little disappointed, he didn't think too much about it and just agreed obediently.
The sky gradually darkened, and the little girl was really bored being alone in this huge villa. After hesitating for a while, she got up, went to the cloakroom, changed her clothes, and went out.
Jiang Luoning planned to secretly go to the company to find Fu Linxiao and give him a surprise without alerting anyone. She drove the car to the garage and took the president's exclusive elevator to the floor where Fu Linxiao was. As expected, it was the end of the year, and the employees in the president's office were still busy working overtime.
Lin Cong was obviously surprised to see the person coming. He blurted out, "Miss Jiang, did the president forget to take something? Why are you here at this hour?"
"Ah, no! No, I just wanted to come over and see you. It's okay, go ahead and do your thing, don't worry about me!" Jiang Luoning finally realized something was wrong from Lin Cong's words. When Fu Linxiao called her in the afternoon, he repeatedly told her to stay home and not run around. She had come to the company hoping to surprise him, but she had an unexpected reward.
Jiang Luoning calmly walked to Fu Linxiao's office, scanned his fingerprint, and the door opened. It was pitch black. Turning on the light, he saw a half-closed file on the desk and a knocked-over water cup. Fortunately, there wasn't much water stain, so the files and other items weren't stained.
After finding some tissues and helping him clean up the mess on the desk and organizing all the documents, Jiang Luoning quietly left.
Sitting in the car, Jiang Luoning could no longer control her wild thoughts. She knew Fu Linxiao would not do anything to let her down, but what on earth would he do that without telling her? One bad thought after another kept flashing through her mind, and she could no longer remain calm.
Without hesitation, Jiang Luoning drove away, and the destination shown on the navigation was Zijin Club.
After arriving at the destination, the neon lights kept flashing, and there was an endless stream of people at the door. Whenever night fell, it was the prelude to the bustling crowd here. Jiang Luoning did not enter from the main door, but went around to the side door and took the direct elevator to the monitoring room on the top floor. Ever since the accident when he was harassed by the front desk, Jiang Luoning's photo had been circulated among the leadership to prevent anyone from contradicting the little girl again.
Hearing the knock on the door of the monitoring room, the security director inside immediately became alert. Through the surveillance camera and video doorbell on the door, he saw that the visitor was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Only then did he feel relieved and opened the door.
"Miss Jiang, what are you doing?" they asked respectfully. The sudden arrival of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family made everyone a little at a loss.
Jiang Luoning went straight into the monitoring room, ignoring everyone's surprised looks, and asked the security manager, "Is there anything unusual about the meeting today?"
Although he didn't understand why, the security manager replied seriously, "No, everything is normal today! Is there something wrong?"
Seeing that the man's expression didn't change at all, and he didn't seem to be telling lies or helping to conceal something, Jiang Luoning smiled, looked around as if nothing had happened, and glanced at the surveillance footage on the screen, but didn't find anything unusual.
"It's okay, I'm just asking for your CEO Lu!"
"Don't worry, Miss Jiang. I remember everything President Lu told me before he left yesterday. Don't worry, I will do my best to fulfill my duties while he is away from the club on a business trip!" The security manager smiled when he heard Jiang Luoning's words, nodded slightly, and solemnly issued a military order.
Jiang Luoning had never expected that he would be able to get such a small amount of information from the security manager even though he was planning to leave. Lu Zifan on a business trip?
Ever since he and Yingyi were given the task of finding the child from the Mantis Organization, he has devoted almost all his energy to it. How could he possibly go on a business trip?
This is not normal, something must have happened!
Jiang Luoning understood.
The little girl who got some news picked up a pen and paper on the table, wrote down her cell phone number, and then handed it to the man.
"Okay, here's my contact information. If anything comes up and they can't handle it in time, just contact me!"
The security manager took the paper as if it were a treasure, and then nodded in thanks.
Seeing this, Jiang Luoning achieved his goal and planned to leave without staying.
"You guys are busy, I'm leaving."
Jiang Luoning returned to the car and pondered what she should do now. Should she call Fu Linxiao directly to question him, or ignore the matter? As for why the man kept it a secret from her, it was obvious that he was afraid that she would worry.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Luoning took out his cell phone and called Axing; but no one answered after it rang for a long time.
It’s abnormal, so abnormal!
Ah Xing set a special reminder tone for Jiang Luoning. Ah Xing had said before that this way he would know it was her call at the first moment. No matter what time or place, as long as he was still alive, he would definitely pick up the phone immediately when he heard the ringtone.
After waiting for a while, Jiang Luoning called Axing again. This time, when the ringing was about to end, the boy answered the phone.
"Hello, sister." Although Ah Xing tried to restrain her voice, Jiang Luoning still noticed something unusual.
Jiang Luoning pretended to know nothing and asked casually, "What are you doing? I'm so bored. Do you want to come to Mu Ning Garden to keep me company?"
Hearing Jiang Luoning's request, Ah Xing's voice trembled, but she continued to lie, "Ah? I'm in the lab, researching a new toxin. Sister, can we meet some other time?"
Jiang Luoning's voice softened in response to the boy's rejection, leaving people feeling very disappointed, but he still sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll go play games by myself. You go ahead and get busy. Take care of yourself!"
Ah Xing did not respond to the boy's concern, but hung up the phone in a hurry.
The other side.
The young man who had just hung up the phone looked at Fu Linxiao with evasive eyes; "Brother-in-law, I lied to my sister like this, will he ignore me after he finds out?"
"Why do you care so much now? Didn't your brother-in-law also lie to Xiao Ningning? In terms of worry, he is more worried about how to save his own life!" Han Tianyu said coldly from the side.
Fu Linxiao had a gloomy expression on his face, his brows furrowed tightly, and that evil-looking look hadn't appeared for a long time.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's find the person as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Ah Xing, who was worried about himself just now, now became serious, as if facing a great enemy.
