Chapter 349 You Must Be Careful
I was stunned for a moment, then I realized that this was Mr. Li's warning. He had indeed set his sights on us.
After hanging up the phone, I looked at Ye Huating, and her face became even paler: "Does he...does he know?"
I shook my head and forced myself to calm down. "He doesn't know it's us, but he's already beginning to suspect it. We have to move faster."
Ye Huating nodded, with a gleam of determination in her eyes: "I will continue to look for evidence at home. You...you must be careful."
I nodded, but I had a bad feeling in my heart. Things were more complicated than we thought, and every step we took might lead us into Mr. Li's trap.
A few days later, Ye Huating suddenly contacted me and said she had something important to give me. We agreed to meet at a remote cafe. When I arrived, Ye Huating was already sitting in a corner, her face as pale as a piece of paper.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked in a low voice, feeling a little uneasy.
She shook her head and took out a stack of documents from her bag: "This is what I found last night. It's a record of his transactions with the gang, and also a piece of evidence of his money laundering."
I flipped through the documents, my heart pounding. This evidence is enough to finish Mr. Li off, but we have to be careful.
At this moment, the door of the cafe was suddenly pushed open, and Mr. Li walked in with a few people. His eyes swept around the cafe and finally fixed on us.
My heartbeat almost stopped, and my fingers tightly grasped the documents. Ye Huating's face turned pale instantly, but she quickly calmed down and whispered, "Don't panic, I'll handle it."
Mr. Li walked to our table and looked at us coldly: "What are you doing here?"
Ye Huating raised her head with a faint smile on her face: "My friend and I were discussing charity activities. Why are you here?"
Mr. Li frowned, obviously not expecting her to answer like that. He looked at me with a suspicious look in his eyes: "Charity event?"
Ye Huating nodded, her tone relaxed and natural: "Yes, she is a public welfare-oriented person, and we are discussing how to help those in need."
Mr. Li was silent for a few seconds, obviously trying to determine whether her words were true or not. Finally, he said coldly, "Go home early and don't hang around outside."
Ye Huating nodded, still smiling: "Okay, we'll go back right away."
Mr. Li turned and left, leading his people out of the cafe. I breathed a sigh of relief, but I felt an indescribable complex emotion in my heart. I secretly admired Ye Huating's wit, but it also made me realize that every step we take could fall into Mr. Li's trap.
"He probably didn't see who I was." I whispered, feeling uneasy.
I had my back to him and was some distance away from the door.
Ye Huating comforted me and said, "Even if I knew Ye had no connections, I'm already looking for a lawyer."
You hired a lawyer so quickly? With this efficiency, I wonder how long Mr. Li can continue to be so rampant.
On the other hand, Lin Nan was dealing with the company's affairs. The evidence he had found before that Mr. Li was greedy for money was not enough, and he had not yet given it to me.
"Everything is normal at the company!"
"normal."
Jiang Yichen inquired about the company's recent situation and prepared to ship the last supplies abroad.
"You can return home soon."
"Of course. My subordinates over there told me that they have almost dealt with Gu Mo's matter."
"That's fine." Although it was just a few simple replies, I could tell that Jiang Yichen was really concerned about me all the time.
The investigation into Mr. Li was proceeding cautiously every day, but unexpectedly, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.
Mr. Li's suspicion of Ye Huating grew deeper and deeper. His suspicious nature was like a powder keg that could explode at any moment. Just because Ye Huating had been out more often recently, he was certain that Ye Huating had another man and began to guard against her.
In the early morning, the sunlight should have gently sprinkled into the house, but for Ye Huating, it became a shackle that imprisoned her. The people sent by General Manager Li stood guard at the door like ghosts, and as long as Ye Huating had the slightest intention of going out, she would be ruthlessly stopped. Ye Huating tried to resist, but in return, General Manager Li's increasingly fierce eyes and verbal threats were met with.
"What on earth have you been doing recently? Are you dating some strange man behind my back?" Mr. Li glared at Ye Huating fiercely, his eyes seemed to be able to eat people. Ye Huating was so scared that she was shaking all over, her pale face was full of fear, but she was unable to defend herself.
I was extremely anxious when I heard the news.
Although I got to know him because of Mr. Li, I really admire her strong character. She is a powerful woman.
She has suffered domestic violence from Mr. Li for a long time and is exhausted physically and mentally, but for some reason she has to save face for the sake of her children. Now, Mr. Li's actions have undoubtedly made the situation even more critical.
At night, I hid in the dim room, the light from my phone screen illuminated my anxious face. I kept sending messages to Ye Huating, telling her to stay calm and not to anger Mr. Li, while racking my brains to think of countermeasures. Every passing minute and every second was like a knife cutting into my heart.
"Don't be afraid, I will definitely rescue you." I comforted Ye Huating in the message, but my hands were shaking unconsciously. I knew that I didn't have much time left. If Mr. Li really took ruthless action against Ye Huating, the consequences would be disastrous.
I contacted Xiao Zhang, and my voice was more urgent than ever: "We must speed up our actions. The situation is very urgent now."
Xiao Zhang was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, then said firmly: "Okay, I'll find a solution right away."
After hanging up the phone, I looked out the window at the dark night sky, my heart filled with determination.
The next morning, I received good news from Xiao Zhang: "Great, someone over there finally agreed. As long as you agree to his request, he will expose Mr. Li's shameful deeds."
"That's great. As long as his conditions are not excessive, I can accept them."
I typed quickly on the keyboard, fearing that I would be slow to reply.
"The request is simple, and..., what do you think?"
While listening, I discussed with Xu Sisi and the others whether this method was feasible. Soon, they all agreed to the conditions for purchasing the black material this time.
"That's it for now. If there is any follow-up situation, please inform me in time."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yichen had already arranged the cooperation and was preparing to return home.
"Lin Nan, this place has been booked, how are your preparations going?"
Lin Nan received the message in the middle of the night and replied promptly: "I'm ready, so I stayed up all night yesterday. If you can return to China in time, remember to give me a big raise."
