"Alright, now let me explain your tasks... Did you all understand?"
Hearing these people's words, Engineer Liu didn't have time to verify whether what they said was true or false. He had to quickly find Liu Shuang, who had escaped, and Jiang Manyue, whom Liu Shuang had taken away.
He explained the specific tasks to everyone.
"I've written them all down."
"We know what to do."
Everyone looked at the area assigned by Engineer Liu, then nodded and said to Engineer Liu.
"Everyone, please take this opportunity to send me a message as soon as you find any clues. Do not be reckless or greedy. Meet me at 8 p.m. tonight."
Actually, these were all methods sent by Da Xiong via text message. Engineer Liu simply relayed them to these people, gave them a few instructions, and then addressed the crowd.

"Mr. Zhou, the chairman would like to invite you in."
A long time passed in the coffee shop. The closed office door was opened from the inside, and Secretary Ge came out, went to the bar, and spoke to Zhou Wen who was behind the bar.
"Okay, Secretary Ge, let me see you off first."
Seeing that Secretary Ge was about to leave, Zhou Wen glanced in the direction of the office and smiled as she spoke to Secretary Ge.
"What do I, an old man, have to offer? The chairman is still inside waiting for you."
Upon hearing that Zhou Wen wanted to give him a ride, Secretary Ge smiled, waved her hand, and pointed towards the office to Zhou Wen.
Secretary Ge knew why Zhou Wen was being so polite—it was to curry favor with her. Secretary Ge was a seasoned professional and had seen this kind of thing many times before.
"Alright, then I won't see you off, Secretary Ge. Take care."
Seeing that Secretary Ge was unwilling to let her see him off, Zhou Wen stopped trying. Afraid of offending Secretary Ge, she stood at the door, waved her hand, and said a few words.
"No matter who comes, don't let them near the office."
After Secretary Ge had completely left, he hurried toward his office, giving Zhou Ruan a few words of advice before leaving, realizing that Lu Fan didn't want anyone to know he was there.
"clear."
Zhou Ruan knew what to do and gave Zhou Wen an OK sign.
"Mr. Lu, are you done talking?"
In the past, Zhou Wen was still a little worried about Zhou Ruan, but after that incident, she could see that Zhou Ruan had really grown. Zhou Wen brought a cup of coffee and some snacks into the office, placed the tray on the coffee table, and asked Lu Fan, who was sitting on the sofa.
"Yes, everything is settled."
Lu Fan was flipping through the documents in his hand when he answered Zhou Wen's question.
"Mr. Lu, we've been chatting for so long, you must be a little hungry. Let's eat something."
A long time had passed, and not knowing whether Lu Fan had eaten, someone placed some snacks in front of him and said.
"Oh dear, we were so engrossed in talking that so much time has passed. I have something to do, so I'll have to go now. I won't take the things with me; I might come back tonight. Please keep them safe."
Upon hearing Zhou Wen's words, Lu Fan glanced at his watch and saw that so much time had passed. He quickly got up to leave, tossing the documents he had just seen onto the table before he left.
"Okay, I'll put these away now. Why don't you eat something before you go?"
Seeing Lu Fan hurriedly preparing to leave, she walked to the coffee table, gathered up the documents on it, and headed towards the cabinet where the documents were stored. She then spoke to Lu Fan as he was about to leave.
Now that you mention it, I'm a little hungry. Let's go.
Lu Fan, who had reached the door, touched his stomach. He was indeed hungry. He walked back, picked up a pastry from the table, and then turned to leave.
"Mr. Lu, please go through the back door. It's already been opened for you."
Seeing that Lu Fan was about to leave through the main entrance, Zhou Wen quickly called out to him, pointed to the back entrance, and said to him.
Lu Fan, who had been called, glanced in the direction of the door and then followed Zhou Wen toward the back door.
"Alright, I'll come over again tonight to open the back door."
Upon reaching the back door, he turned to Zhou Wen and gave her instructions.
"good."
After listening to Lu Fan's instructions, Zhou Wen didn't ask why, but nodded in response.
Lu Fan quickly left the entrance and drove towards the hospital.
"Ring ring ring ring!"
"What's wrong?"
Lu Fan, who was driving to the hospital, saw that Lu Xi had called. After answering the phone, he asked Lu Xi a question.
"Brother, are you not in the ward? I came to look for you just now, but the bodyguards at the door wouldn't let me in."
Lu Xi, who also went to visit Lu Fan, discovered that Lu Fan was not in the ward. When she arrived at the hospital entrance, she also noticed that a car in the parking lot was missing. Only then did she call Lu Fan to inquire about it.
"That's right, I was out taking care of something, I'm coming right back." (Listening)
Hearing his sister's anxious voice on the other end of the phone, Lu Fan smiled and said to Lu Xi.
"Hmm, are you alright now?"
Lu Xi, who was initially anxious, felt relieved when she heard that Lu Fan was coming back. She asked Lu Fan with concern.
"I've recovered long ago. I just don't want the people from the Oriental Group to keep an eye on me. Only when they lower their guard against me can I find their weakness."
Lu Fan explained to Lu Xi why he was still pretending to be sick.
"That's good. Big brother, you'd better come back quickly. I saw Liu Shang from Shanggong Group arrive. I'll hold him off at the door! Be sure to come back soon!"
Hearing that Lu Fan was alright, Lu Xi smiled. Then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Liu Shang arrive at the hospital and see him get out of the car.
Lu Xi sensed that they must have come to see Lu Fan. Just now, Lu Fan himself said that he didn't want others to know. Lu Xi hurriedly said to Lu Fan.
After saying that, he hung up the phone and stood at the door, waiting for Liu Shang to come over.
On the other end, Lu Fan heard that Liu Shang had gone to the hospital and understood that he was looking for him. Liu Shang was now very close to the Oriental Group, and if he knew that Lu Fan wasn't at the hospital, he would definitely be able to guess that Lu Fan was alright. So Lu Fan sped up and drove towards the hospital.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Lu? What are you doing here?"
After getting off the car, Liu Shang, carrying some nutritional supplements with Da Xiong, arrived at the door and saw Lu Xi standing there. Liu Shang greeted Lu Xi with a smile.
Actually, Liu Shang saw Lu Xi when he got out of the car. If it were before, he would have greeted her long ago. Now his status is different from before, so he doesn't need to pay attention to Lu Xi at all. But when he got to her, he thought about it and still greeted her. After all, he came to see Lu Fan this time. If this little girl didn't let him in, then this trip would be a waste.
"What's strange about me being here? It's you who's strange."
Lu Xi had heard Lu Fan mention Liu Shang before. He was someone who would kick someone when they've served their purpose, so Lu Xi didn't even give him a second glance.
He retorted to Liu Shang in a completely impolite tone.
