On Monday afternoon, a report about drugs smuggled in Lu Group’s transport vehicles instantly topped the trending searches.
Meng Sheng had just come out of the Art Association Museum when he saw this report.
Today I came to discuss the exhibited paintings with two painters and the exhibition organizer from the association. The discussion lasted from morning to afternoon.
There are a total of 99 paintings of various sizes in the entire exhibition, 46 of which are about autumn, and the remaining 53 are by Ying Feiting.
She looked at the content of the report, paused, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.
Pei Sui took action so quickly?
She thought he would wait until Thursday to make his move.
After all, that day could catch them all.
"Meng Meng, why are you in a daze? Let's go." Qiu Yi saw that she didn't move, so he turned back and called her.
Meng Sheng came back to his senses, looked up to meet her eyes, and smiled lightly, "Sister, I'm afraid I can't go to dinner with you, you guys go eat, I have some things to take care of here."
"You can't leave without eating now. You still have one in your stomach." Qiu Yi said dissatisfiedly, "No matter how busy you are, you have to fill your stomach."
She didn't tell Qiu Yi that she was faking her pregnancy.
The only ones who knew the inside story were Qiao Na, Aunt Ren, and Pei Sui.
As for her uncle's family, she didn't mention her "pregnancy" at all, and there was no need to mention it.
She had weighed the matter over and over again and had no intention of telling Qiu Yi, but Qiu Yi had a partnership with the art museum, so after a few exchanges, she found out about it from other employees.
Everyone was so excited about the discussion this afternoon that they didn't even think about eating.
Qiuyi said she was hungry, but they hadn't finished discussing anything yet and it was too late to go out for an eat, so the vice president ordered some food.
She smiled brightly and said in a warm voice, "Didn't I eat what the vice president ordered for lunch? I'm not hungry now. If I get hungry later, I can just buy something to eat."
Hearing her say this, Qiu Yi was not the type of fussy person, so she stopped forcing him, "Just don't starve yourself, where are you going? I'll drive you there."
"No, it's easy to get a taxi here. I can just take a taxi there."
Meng Sheng waved his hand, walked to the side of the road and hailed a taxi, "Go to Suixing Law Firm."
More than ten minutes later, the car arrived at the door of the law firm.
Meng Sheng looked at the large characters on the signboard sparkling in the sun, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to ask him whether he was in the law firm.
Just as I was about to take my phone out of my bag to make a call, a deep, cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded behind me.
"Meng Sheng?"
Meng Sheng was stunned and looked back. He saw a tall figure standing about six or seven meters away.
The man was wearing a dark brown coat. The golden sunlight enveloped him in layers, dispelling his cold and indifferent temperament. Instead, one could see a bit of warmth.
Pei Sui looked deeply at the figure that was shining brightly in the warm winter sun.
The afternoon breeze blew gently, as if it could penetrate his clothes and flow into his cold heart.
He walked over and said in a low voice, "Why are you here?"
Meng Sheng said, "I saw the report. Lu Ming was arrested?"
Pei Sui's eyes fell on her beautiful face, then he looked away, his tone still indifferent, "Well, she has been detained by the police. I just came back from the police station. Let's go and talk in the office."
Police Station...
That was probably because of Lu Ming's ten kilograms of drugs.
After entering the office, Nie Han brought two cups of tea without asking any questions.
Meng Sheng noticed that Pei Sui's cup was also filled with tea, and felt a little surprised.
Having come to his office so many times, she remembered that Pei Sui always drank black coffee.
This is the first time I have seen this tea.
She looked up and happened to meet the man's deep and cold eyes. She moved her lips and said, "I thought we had to wait until Thursday."
Pei Sui nodded after hearing this. "Well, the police originally planned to wait until Thursday, when the last batch of drugs was delivered, before taking action. However, Lu Ming has been very active in the past few days, and there have been some accidents in Zhanglan City.
So we have to act in advance. The batch that was shipped to Beijing yesterday has been searched. As for the remaining batch, it will be handed over to the police. It won’t take too long, at most two or three days.”
Meng Sheng heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.
One gram of drugs can easily destroy a family. The earlier these drugs are seized by the police, the greater the risk.
The Lu family is probably in chaos now and can’t even take care of itself.
And Lu Ming couldn't be saved either.
It was not appropriate for her to ask more about this case, so she changed the subject, "I came here today because I want to ask you for help with something else."
Pei Sui picked up the teacup, exhaled lightly to disperse the tea, took a sip, raised his head and nodded, motioning for her to speak.
Meng Sheng pursed his lips and asked carefully, "Um... can you get a miniature camera?"
Pei Sui was slightly startled, and his brows knitted unconsciously, "What do you want this for?"
Meng Sheng wanted to say something but stopped himself. He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He has always been very patient. During the few minutes she hesitated, he didn't say a word. Meng Sheng finally told her her plan.
The more he listened, the tighter Pei Sui's brows furrowed.
He had had some vague suspicions when they were having dinner two days ago, so he was not that surprised. But now that he heard her plan with his own ears, he couldn't help but feel depressed.
He reminded in a cold voice, "You are taking a risk..."
"I know, but you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb." Meng Sheng took over his words, "This is the fastest and most direct opportunity to sell the shares to Shang Boyu.
And… I don’t necessarily need to be seriously injured, as long as the baby is “fallen”. ”
In fact, she had contacted the private detective yesterday, but the private detective was not in Beijing and it would take three days for the items to be delivered.
Too late.
Unable to find anyone else, she had to come to Pei Sui.
Although Pei Sui was a lawyer, she was sure he could get it.
Pei Sui glanced at her, and his obscure expression revealed his disapproval of her plan.
It's too dangerous.
But all the words of persuasion went around his lips and fell back into his stomach.
It was her decision and he respected it.
The two of them gave each other time to think. After drinking a cup of tea, his voice rang out again in the quiet office, "When do you want it?"
"Tomorrow at the latest."
Pei Sui nodded and said, "Tomorrow afternoon, I will ask Nie Han to deliver it to you."
Meng Sheng put down the teacup and stood up. "Okay, thank you. I'll leave first and won't disturb you while you work."
Pei Sui didn't say a word. He watched her walk to the door. Even after the office door closed, he didn't look away. His brows were still tightly knitted, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
