"Everyone, quiet down. Shall we listen to what our boss has to say?"
Seeing that the noise was getting more and more chaotic, with all sorts of different things being said, someone quickly stepped forward to interrupt and then looked at Zhang Xinlei and asked.
"What else is there to say about this? The boss already said that she had some unpleasant things with Qu Tu when the young master was kidnapped. If it wasn't him, then who else could it be!"
"That's right, the biggest beneficiary of the young master's kidnapping is Qu Tu!"
"Let's go, let's find Qu Tu and get to the bottom of this!"
Some of the people who followed the sheet music became agitated and wanted to confront the composer directly.
"Stop right there!"
Seeing that they were all about to go looking for it, Zhang Xinlei angrily raised her head and scolded them.
Those who were originally going to go also stopped and looked back at Zhang Xinlei. Now that they no longer had the sheet music to protect them, they knew that it would be useless for them to go and confront the music chart. Now they could only listen to Zhang Xinlei.
"While everything is still unclear, everyone better behave yourselves. No matter how much Old Master Qu dislikes Qu Tu, he still holds more weight in Old Master Qu's heart than any of us!"
Looking at these foolish people who wanted to find the musical score, he angrily addressed them, even though they were all followers of the score.
But they are also people I grew up with and have a very good relationship with, and I don't want them to make such a low-level mistake.
"Big Sister is right. With the young master not here, we'll all listen to you."
Everyone understood Zhang Xinlei's words and came back. One of the more experienced people then spoke to Zhang Xinlei.
"Big Sister, I've brought the person you wanted."
Just as Zhang Xinlei was speaking to the others, several people carried in a sack, threw the sack on the ground, and the leader said to Zhang Xinlei.
"Open!"
Zhang Xinlei walked over, looked at the burlap sacks tied to the ground, and gave orders to her subordinates.
"Waaaaah!"
After the sack was opened, a person poked his head out. Seeing a large crowd gathered around him, he panicked. When he saw Zhang Xinlei standing in front of him, he could only speak indistinctly because his mouth was stuffed with something. Although it was unclear what he was saying, the people around him could see the fear in his eyes.
"Mr. Bai, it's nice to see you again."
Zhang Xinlei squatted down and took the thing out of Bai's mouth, then smiled and said to Bai.
"Zhang, Zhang Xinlei, what do you want to do?"
Mr. Bai looked at Zhang Xinlei, who was smiling at him, with horror, afraid that Zhang Xinlei knew something, and asked her nervously.
"What are you doing? Mr. Bai is a partner of the company. We asked you to invite him here. Who told you to be so rude!"
Seeing Mr. Bai's state, Zhang Xinlei angrily began to reprimand the people who had tied him up, then smiled and untied the ropes binding him. Mr. Bai sat down on the sofa, trembling slightly, wanting to see what Zhang Xinlei intended to do.
"I'll get straight to the point about why I invited you here today. Where exactly is our young master?"
After Zhang Xinlei sat down, the smile on her face disappeared, and she asked President Bai a question. The people around her also took a step forward.
"Manager Qu didn't have dinner with me yesterday at all. I was with my secretary the whole time. You can ask them."
Seeing Zhang Xinlei's posture, President Bai knew that she was about to begin to extract a confession through torture.
But remembering Lu Fan's instructions, even though the Oriental Group was large and powerful, it was still no match for Lu Fan. He pretended to be scared and pointed at the people who brought him here.
“That’s right, when we found him, he was in bed with his secretary.”
When Zhang Xinlei looked over, her subordinates recounted what had happened when they went to see Boss Bai.
"If I hadn't gotten wind of it, do you think I would have found you? I know that you must be a threat to France. Our Oriental Group can guarantee your safety, as long as you tell us where our young master is?"
Hearing about what President Bai had done, Zhang Xinlei felt an urge to punch him, but she held back and said to him with a smile.
"I really don't know. If I did know, would I have kept quiet?"
President Bai also pretended to be innocent and quickly waved his hand at Zhang Xinlei.
"I'm leaving it to you. Just make sure you're alive."
Seeing that President Bai had no intention of cooperating, Zhang Xinlei reluctantly gave instructions to her subordinates.
"So the young master's kidnapping was related to you, boss. Hand this person over to us!"
Those die-hard fans of the sheet music, upon hearing Zhang Xinlei's words, looked at President Bai with a changed gaze, as if they wanted to tear him apart. One of them stepped forward, rubbing his hands together, and stared at President Bai as he spoke to Zhang Xinlei.
"Alright, I'll leave it to you."
Zhang Xinlei looked at the person who came out, but didn't say anything. Instead, she looked at President Bai with a sympathetic gaze.
"Assistant Zhang, I really don't know anything! Please let me off the hook!"
Upon seeing the person who came out, with his thick muscles, Boss Bai was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy from Zhang Xinlei.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it, Xing!"
Seeing that President Bai still wouldn't speak, Zhang Xinlei sighed and turned her head away.
"Brothers, give Boss Bai a good welcome!"
Several people came up, grabbed Boss Bai, and dragged him out while talking to him.
"I...I don't know anything, wait a minute!"
