"I believe there's strength in numbers, and I have great faith in the capabilities of the XX Detective Agency. This was personally recommended to me by Mr. Ouyang, your boss. His recommendation proves you're very capable. With one more person helping out, we can get to the bottom of this faster."
Lan Zheng's words almost made Susu choke on her snacks.
This guy is so difficult to deal with. No matter what I say, he refuses to cancel the order.
"I've been investigating for six years and haven't found much evidence. I know it's very difficult to gather sufficient evidence. That's why I'm telling you that I don't require you to investigate for me in a short time. Take your time. Any evidence you can dig up is fine. I haven't found any useful evidence."
"You've invested so much time and effort, so I deserve some compensation. I won't ask for a refund of the deposit I paid. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Qingqing has returned safely now. We're only investigating the past for the sake of our future safety."
Both he and Qingqing will have children in the future, and he doesn't want Qingqing's misfortune to happen to him or Qingqing's children again.
Susu: ...
She seriously suspected that Lan Zheng hired her XX Detective Agency not to investigate what happened, but to have an excuse to force her to meet him.
Thinking about how Lan Zheng always kept a distance of three meters from young women and was not a lustful person, Qingqing even thought about bringing her and Lan Zheng together, but Lan Zheng didn't give her any face and was very disgusted with her. Susu felt that she was being too suspicious.
Maybe Lan Zheng really thought she could help, and since she had saved him before, he thought she was very skilled, so he chose to let her help.
"I believe in the capabilities of your firm!"
Lan Zheng still looked like he trusted Susu very much, as if in his eyes, Susu was omnipotent and invincible.
Susu didn't want to wear the tall hat he forced on her, but she couldn't take it off, so she could only hold on, hoping that the tall hat wouldn't break her neck.
"Since Young Master Lan trusts me and our firm so much, I'll do my best to help. It's late, so I won't disturb Young Master Lan's rest."
Having said that, Susu stood up and was about to leave.
This time, she finally decided not to go out through the door, because the room next door belonged to Mu Qing and her husband, and she didn't want to accidentally enter the room of the couple who were always showing off their love.
She was especially thankful that Qingqing and her husband did not do anything inappropriate for children when she broke in last time, otherwise she would have been extremely embarrassed.
Being a thief, oh no, being a detective for so many years, this was the first time she encountered such an embarrassing situation.
"Would you like to sit for a while?"
Lan Zheng couldn't bear to see Susu come and go in a hurry.
After talking about serious matters, don’t they have anything else to say?
"Young Master Lan needs to rest. I won't sit here any longer."
Susu didn't know if she was being too sensitive, but she felt that Lan Zheng seemed reluctant to let her leave too soon.
Mu Qing saw what she looked like under the mask. I believe she had told Lan Zheng that Lan Zheng didn't mind her. His attitude towards her was the same as before. It seemed that this man was a real man and would not judge a person by appearance.
To be honest, the more they met, the more Susu understood Lan Zheng. The more she understood him, the more she felt that this man was a gem covered in dust, which had not been discovered by women who knew the value of treasure.
He will become that shining gem one day.
"Tomorrow is Saturday, and I don't have to go back to the company. Plus, I'm having a party at home tonight to introduce my sister to everyone. I need to help entertain the guests tonight, but I'm free during the day, so I can catch up on some sleep."
After a pause, Lan Zheng said considerately, "If I disturb your rest, then I'll take you there."
He could catch up on his sleep tomorrow, but she might not.
City A is so far from Wangcheng that it takes several hours to fly. Every time she comes here, she probably books the ticket in advance, rushes here and rushes back again. She must not be able to rest well with the back and forth.
In the past, Lan Zheng had never thought of this.
Now, he thought of it.
So I thought about it for her.
Lan Zheng packed up all the snacks into a large bag, handed it to Susu, and said, "I see you like them very much. I don't usually eat these things, and you only come here once in a long time. I'm afraid they will expire if left out, so I'll bring some home for you to eat, so they don't expire and go to waste."
Susu declined politely.
She is now a guest at the Lan family. If she accepts Lan Zheng's big bag of snacks, it will be easy to be exposed.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master Lan. I'll take these snacks with me. It's inconvenient. You know I act like a thief every time I come in here. I have to be very careful to avoid your anti-theft system. Carrying this big bag of stuff will easily expose me, and once I'm exposed, I'll become a burden."
"Master Lan is worried that it will expire, so you can give it to your sister. Didn't Master Lan say that your sister likes snacks very much?"
Lan Zheng thought about it and felt that what she said made sense, so he retracted his hand and said, "Then can you give me a call before you come next time? I'll prepare your favorite snacks early."
He left a mobile phone number known to all the bigwigs in Wangcheng's upper class at the XX Detective Agency.
Susu is the boss of the firm, so she naturally knows his contact information.
Su Su smiled and said, "You make it sound like I need to eat every time I come here. Okay, I'll call you before I come next time so as not to disturb Young Master Lan."
"It won't be abrupt."
It's a surprise.
Lan Zheng walked Susu to the window. He opened the curtains and pushed open the window. The bodyguards hiding in the trees were all staring at their young master and the masked girl who was very good at sneaking.
I always feel like the young master and this masked girl are having an affair.
"Master Lan, I'll be leaving first."
"Be careful."
Su Su smiled, "If it weren't for the young master's sister and her husband last time, I wouldn't have been discovered."
Susu is still very confident in her ability to be a "female thief".
Apart from her master who was only fifty years old and clamored to retire and leave the world to take care of her in her old age, no one could surpass her in this respect.
Susu jumped onto the windowsill. She did not put away the tools that had just swung in. Now she grabbed the rope again. Under Lan Zheng's gaze, she swung over and easily grabbed the branch.
The bodyguards watched silently, and no one dared to move.
"Excuse me."
Susu waved apologetically to the bodyguards hiding in the trees, then slipped away.
Several bodyguards: ...
Lan Zheng stood in front of the window and looked for a long time. Perhaps he realized that he was being watched by his bodyguard, so he turned around and closed the curtains.
Don't admit that you just felt reluctant.
After this separation, I don’t know when we will meet again.
She is a little erratic.
You won't be able to find her at XX Detective Agency. Apart from her people, clients like her have no way of contacting her and can only wait for her to come to them.
Lan Zheng felt that she was very good at protecting herself.
