Hearing the voices on the other end getting louder, Zhang Xinlei interrupted them directly.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, they continued to ask in a low voice.
"They haven't found me, but this puts me under a lot of pressure! The company has already started a reshuffle. If Dongfang Shuo finds out about what I've done, do you think I'll have a chance to survive?"
The person on the other end also adjusted their mood and lowered their voice to ask Zhang Xinlei a question in return.
"Don't worry, Elder Qu will never forget your contributions. As long as Dongfang Shuo is brought down, you won't have so much pressure anymore..."
Zhang Xinlei understood his feelings very well and tried to soothe his emotions.
They diligently gathered information and patiently explained a great deal.
"Alright, you've said so much, but not a single thing of substance. All I want to know now is, if something unexpected happens, can Elder Qu protect me?"
"Well, I'm just here to deliver a message, so I'm sorry I can't answer that question."
When asked this question, Zhang Xinlei was stunned and replied with some difficulty.
"Hmph, I knew this would be the outcome. If Elder Qu still cares about what I did for him, he should seriously consider my terms!"
The person on the other end snorted coldly, having already anticipated this outcome.
He picked up his clothes, stood up, thought for a moment, and said to Zhang Xinlei.
"Go through the back door; there are people watching the entrance!"
Zhang Xinlei, who was in a dilemma, was still thinking about what to do after hearing the story.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a car parked across the road. It looked like the Qu family's car, and something felt off. Just to be on the safe side, he said...
"With your level of vigilance, how did you manage to let them find this place? You have absolutely no sense of security!"
Upon hearing Zhang Xinlei's words, the person who came to meet her nervously covered his face and angrily said a few words.
Then he quickly left through the back door.
The two people who were waiting for Zhang Xinlei to come out of the car quickly adjusted their seats and pretended to be asleep in the car as Zhang Xinlei walked out of the coffee shop and walked straight towards them.
Knock knock knock!
What are you two doing here?
After a short while, Zhang Xinlei stood in front of the car window, tapped on the window, and asked.
"Oh my, isn't this Sister Lei?"
"Sister Lei, what are you doing here?"
Hearing the knocking on the window, the two could no longer pretend to be asleep. They quickly sat up from their chairs with smiles and said to Zhang Xinlei.
"Stop talking nonsense, what are you doing here?"
Seeing their guilty looks, Zhang Xinlei knew something was wrong, so she cracked her knuckles and pressed them for answers.
"Don't fight, let's talk this over."
They were all adopted by Old Master Qu. When they were young, Zhang Xinlei was very domineering and often beat them up. This left a deep childhood trauma on them. Now, seeing that the other party was about to get violent again, they quickly smiled and said something in fear.
"Don't worry, we've been best friends since we were kids. Tell me who sent you two to follow me. Don't worry, I absolutely won't tell anyone."
Zhang Xinlei reached into the car window, patted one of the people's faces, and said.
"Sister Lei, please let us go. My brother and I are just errand runners."
The person whose face was being slapped didn't dare to breathe. The person sitting in the passenger seat swallowed hard and nervously said to Zhang Xinlei.
"You don't want to be treated like this, do you?!"
Zhang Xinlei looked at the two people in front of her and slapped them across the face.
The person who had just been slapped in the face was caught off guard and slapped directly across the face. He angrily said to the two of them.
"Young Master sent my brother and me."
The person sitting in the passenger seat, out of fear, blurted it out.
"Young Master? Why did he send the two of you to follow me?"
Hearing that the two said it was an order from the sheet music, he asked them to confirm it again, somewhat disbelievingly.
Since Absolute Music Score is a playboy, there's no reason for him to have someone watching him.
“It’s absolutely true! We don’t know what happened here. After you left, the young master immediately called us to keep an eye on you.”
Seeing that Zhang Xinlei was about to continue hitting him, the person who had just been slapped covered his left cheek and said anxiously.
"Okay, don't follow me anymore. I won't be so polite next time."
Seeing the two of them looking scared, Zhang Xinlei knew it was true, and then said to them with some disdain.
Zhang Xinlei had some impression of these two people; they were the kind of people who had absolutely no ambition.
If they were useful, Old Master Qu wouldn't have put them in charge of the villa's security.
"Sister Lei, could you please not tell the young master about this?"
The two didn't leave immediately; instead, they looked at Zhang Xinlei pitifully and pleaded.
"If you want to keep me from telling anyone, I don't need to tell you what to say when you get back, do I?"
Seeing the two pleading looks on their faces, Zhang Xinlei didn't want to have any trouble with the sheet music. Looking at these two unreliable people, if they found out who she was meeting, she would be in big trouble. So she smiled and asked them in return.
"We know what to do!"
The two breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Zhang Xinlei couldn't explain the score, and then smiled and said to Zhang Xinlei.
"Get out!"
Upon hearing Zhang Xinlei tell them to leave, they quickly drove away, not daring to linger there for even a moment longer.
Zhang Xinlei also drove away. There were still some things to take care of at the company. Besides handling those matters, she also needed to report on the attitude of the people who came to see her.
"Xiao Zhang is here. Quickly sit down and have some tea I brewed."
Mr. Qu, who was sitting on the sofa brewing tea, saw Zhang Xinlei come in and quickly greeted her with a smile.
"Thank you, godfather!"
Zhang Xinlei glanced around the office and, seeing no one else there, smiled and sat down on the sofa, taking the cup and saying with a smile.
"How's the tea?"
Seeing that Zhang Xinlei had already drunk it, he asked her expectantly.
"It tastes great."
Zhang Xinlei, who is always energetic and outgoing, had never drunk this stuff before.
But since it was brewed by Mr. Qu himself, all I could do was smile and say it was delicious.
"By the way, how's the matter I asked you to handle?"
Hearing Zhang Xinlei say it was delicious, he smiled happily. Among these adopted children, apart from Qu Tu, who was named after a song, she was Zhang Xinlei's favorite child. If Zhang Xinlei weren't a girl, this huge business might have been given to her.
Then he remembered what he had told Zhang Xinlei to do.
He knew that the person who came to see him at this time must be reporting something, and he brought the topic back to the present.
