Chapter 405 Life is but a dream, is it real or fake? (30)



Lin Xiao didn't know where Song Yuwei's anger came from, but he could sense that Song Yuwei must have come prepared.

"You've checked my information."

It wasn't a test or an interrogation, but a definitive statement, saying that Song Yuwei had checked his information before coming.

Song Yuwei also gave a disdainful laugh; she wasn't worth getting angry at someone like that.

"So what if I am? Are you afraid of being investigated if you have nothing to hide? Do you have something to hide?"

Lin Xiao ignored her and poured a glass of fine wine for Song Yuwei. He looked up at the woman who seemed to have the victory in her grasp.

"So you're here to show off, or to provoke me?"

Song Yuwei accepted the wine from Lin Xiao without hesitation and drank it all in one gulp.

"Of course not. I'm here to reason with you. As a man, you should prepare for your career instead of wasting your time on someone who is impossible for you."

Is the "impossible person" she's referring to Yan Siming? Interesting.

Song Yuwei rested one hand on the table, while the other hand reached down and hooked Lin Xiao's chin.

"Some people are beyond your reach because you can't afford to be with them."

Lin Xiao put her hand down and said slowly, "Whether you're good enough for her or not, I don't know. What I do know is that Miss Song, your mistress needs to pay some money as compensation."

He glanced indifferently at the chair that Song Yuwei had broken, and the several bottles of red wine on his table.

"Please compensate me 80,000 yuan, Ms. Song. WeChat, Alipay, or cash are all acceptable."

Song Yuwei's face turned red with anger. "Are you kidding me? Lin Xiao, are you out of your mind for money? These few bottles of cheap liquor and a few broken chairs are worth 80,000 yuan? Why don't you just rob someone!"

Lin Xiao mimicked Song Yuwei's way of speaking in front of her, "Do you think these tables, chairs, and red wine are only worth a few dozen or a hundred yuan? How could that be?"

You didn't ask what my shop does before you came in, did you?

Song Yuwei was truly speechless; she really hadn't inquired about it.

"So what? There's no way this place could be worth that much money. You must be lying to me."

"Forget it, I won't stoop to your level. Here's a card with the PIN; use it as you like."

And so, the next time I see you, I won't be so lucky.

After speaking first, Song Yuwei left Lin Xiao's shop alone.

He didn't take the road home; instead, he chose to go back to the branch office, hailed a taxi, and headed towards the company.

The receptionist was very surprised to see her young lady come to the company, as she usually only came to check on things at noon or in the evening.

"Miss, the chairman is not in his office. What brings you here?"

Song Yuwei didn't have time to waste words with her and went straight to the point: "Okay, it's like it's strange that I'm here to work."

"But now is not the time to talk about that. Immediately have Assistant Zhou look up someone's information for me."

She got along very well with Assistant Zhou, so he was the only person she trusted in the company.

"Yes, Miss, please wait a moment. Assistant Zhou will be down right away."

Zhou Tao, carrying a stack of documents, had just stepped out of the elevator when he saw his mistress calling him. He was a little surprised; hadn't she been ignoring him?

"Miss, what can I do for you?"

"Here's the thing, can you help me investigate this person and find out what his background is? I refuse to believe I can't deal with him."

Song Yuwei took out an envelope from her bag, which contained photos of Lin Xiao, and gave it to Assistant Zhou to investigate.

Assistant Zhou looked at the boy in the photo carefully; he felt like he'd seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place him.

"Since it's something Miss asked me to do, I can definitely do it well. You can rest assured about that."

Song Yuwei was quite satisfied with Assistant Zhou's attitude, and the smooth progress made her feel much better.

"If you do a good job, I will definitely treat you well."

She didn't leave the company at that time; instead, she sat in her office, waiting for news from Assistant Zhou.

Sure enough, the door was opened in less than five minutes, and the person who came in was Assistant Zhou.

"Miss, here's the information you asked me to find. I've found it for you, but do you know this person?"

His sudden serious tone struck him as odd.

"What's wrong with you? Are you afraid of that man? He's just a small-time boss."

Assistant Zhou shook his head. That wasn't what he meant. He was worried about Song Yuwei because of the photos he'd seen at the Yan Group. He wondered if she'd offended someone she shouldn't have.

If the chairman were to blame him, he would be the first one not to be spared, and of course, the young lady wouldn't have a good ending either.

"Oh, no, I was just asking casually. This young man looks quite good-looking, he must be pretty handsome."

"He's just a pretty boy, what's so great about him? Oh, that's not what I meant. He's just a little fair-skinned, how can his strength compare to mine?"

"Never mind, these things are none of your business. I'll call you if I need anything."

Alone in the large office, Song Yuwei looked at Lin Xiao's information and noticed that Lin Xiao's background seemed to be a mystery!

How could a teenager suddenly open such an expensive store? It's hard to believe that he wasn't supported by the Yan Group.

I never expected that Yan Siming would go to such lengths to make someone happy.

And I, who have been your friend for so long, have never enjoyed this!

"Lin Xiao, is it? I'll remember you. I'll make you pay for what happened last time, and you'll get it back. Just you wait."

Half a month ago, there was no news from this place, but the man was still worried that the crazy woman might cause trouble for Lin Xiao.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he should probably stop working and find Lin Xiao instead, and give him a good talking to. Otherwise, he wouldn't feel at ease.

"I'll skip the work for today. If you can do it, please do it for me. I have something very important to do right now."

After instructing his men, his first priority was to rush to Lin Xiao's house and warn them against making any rash moves, as their lives might be in danger.

"Are you stupid? How could he possibly come looking for me openly? That's impossible, okay?"

“It’s precisely because he couldn’t possibly be coming to see you openly and honestly that I’m worried he might have come to the wrong place. I’m determined to send bodyguards to protect you; there’s no room for negotiation on this.”
