Chapter 375 Looking for Liu Ming'e
"Okay, I get it. Since you trust me with such confidential information, don't worry! I'll do my best to carry out the work." Jiang Fuming said as he stood up. "I'm leaving first. We'll contact each other by phone if there's anything. I'll call your guesthouse at 11 o'clock every night on time."
"Thank you!" Lu Jingheng smiled and waved goodbye to Jiang Fuming.
After discussing the details, he finished his meal and left. Before leaving, he packed several trays of dumplings to take back to the guesthouse.
Zhang Yong, Bai Han and Fei Wen all got up and were waiting for Lu Jingheng in the room. Before going out, everyone had to meet and arrange the work to be done today.
Bai Yangfan didn't have this habit. After all, she didn't hang out with them every day. They only came to her when there was something going on. When she had nothing to do, she was basically at school.
"Boss! You're back?" Zhang Yong took the steamed buns from Lu Jingheng's hand, placed them on the table, and invited everyone to eat. "What's our mission today?"
Fei Wen and Bai Han both looked at Lu Jingheng, ready to follow his arrangements.
Lu Jingheng glanced at them and began to give orders: "Feiwen! Your mission today is to take your girlfriend to the southern suburbs to inquire about Liu Ming'e's situation. You go in the morning, and my wife and I will go in the afternoon. Go separately to avoid attracting attention.
Zhang Yong and Bai Han went to the cotton mill to find out about Li Fengxian's situation. Lao Jiang provided a clue and the only Li Fengxian who agreed to our conditions was the director of the purchasing department of the cotton mill.
Everyone eats while it's hot, and then we go our separate ways. By the way, Feiwen, you can arrange for your girlfriend to stay in a nearby hotel, so it'll be easier and more convenient for us to meet."
Fei Wen was dumbfounded and asked anxiously, "Boss! I can do it alone. I don't need to take her with me."
He really didn't want to get too involved with that woman. She was his mother's chosen daughter-in-law, not him. Although Xiaobai said that if he couldn't find someone he liked, he could find someone who liked him, that would have to wait until he finished handling the case.
He really wasn't used to having that woman around now.
At this time, Bai Yangfan just walked in and said lightly: "Feiwen! You are wrong. Lu Jingheng asked you to bring Zhang Xiaoyan with you to cover for you so that no one would notice anything. Besides, men and women work together, don't you know how tiring it is?
Borrow a bicycle and ride to the southern suburbs to observe. If you feel uncomfortable, Lu Jingheng and I can accompany you. Let's pretend we're just strolling south and find out where Liu Ming'e lives.
Fei Wen wholeheartedly agreed with Bai Yangfan's suggestion: "Really? Xiaobai! You want to come with me? Great! I'll go borrow a bike and pick you up right away."
"Wife! Let's really go. Why don't we wait until night?" Lu Jingheng subconsciously thought that in order to confirm Liu Ming'e's address, it would be more appropriate to go at night.
Because she likes to provoke ghosts and gods, and late at night is the time when those things come out to "let loose", it is easier to find her.
"No need. We'll go there during the day to check out the terrain and find out the specific location. We'll go there at night and eliminate all of them, including the people and ghosts." Bai Yangfan ate the dumplings elegantly, but his words were very domineering.
Zhang Yong nodded like a little fanboy, with a very flattering smile on his face: "Yes! I agree with Xiaobai's suggestion. If you really want to go tonight, count me in!"
Bai Han also came over: "I want to go too."
He casually gave him a slap, and Zhang Yong said with disdain: "Why are you going? Who will look after the house when you go? I'll go and tell you if anything happens."
"Not really!" Bai Han shook his head. "I want to go too. Experiencing things firsthand is the most perfect, exciting, and memorable."
Bai Yangfan ignored them and just focused on eating his breakfast.
Seeing that she had finished eating, Lu Jingheng poured her a glass of water and handed it to her: "I'll go get a bicycle, you wait here."
Zhang Yong and Bai Han looked at each other and thought that Xiaobai was so aloof. He ignored them and refused to agree.
Forget it! They also have to go on a mission, so we can talk about this when we get back tonight.
The two men said hello to Bai Yangfan and left the house one after another.
The southern suburbs are a vegetable hub, and everywhere you look there are fields of vegetables. Even in the Lunar New Year, there are some vegetables that are cold-resistant and can still stand, such as cabbage, radish, cauliflower, celery, and garlic.
Zhang Xiaoyan was delighted when she saw Feiwen coming to pick her up and saying that he would take her to the southern suburbs to play. She was even happier when she saw Bai Yangfan and Lu Jingheng going with them.
She kept chattering along the way and trying to get close to Bai Yangfan, but Bai Yangfan was not very good at chatting with such an enthusiastic woman, and finally had to "part ways" with Feiwen and the others and act separately.
I really couldn't resist Zhang Xiaoyan's admiring eyes and warm compliments.
Another advantage of going separately is that we can find out Liu Ming'e's whereabouts in different areas. There is not just one village in the southern suburbs, but several connected villages in total.
Feiwen also felt that Zhang Xiaoyan was too noisy. They didn't come out to play, but to have a mission.
Although I told her that the mission was completed and I took her out for a walk, it didn't mean a real walk around, but a walk with a purpose.
But Zhang Xiaoyan didn't know this and thought he really came out to relax.
He kept telling all kinds of interesting stories along the way in an attempt to liven up the atmosphere.
Finally, Xiaobai couldn't stand it anymore and suggested that they play their own games to avoid disturbing each other.
Was he actually afraid of being disturbed? He didn't want to see Zhang Xiaoyan making a fuss.
Zhang Xiaoyan didn't know and felt a little aggrieved: "Feiwen! Why did Xiaobai say that everyone should play their own games? Is she still mad at me?"
"No," Feiwen explained as he pedaled his bicycle. "Although she doesn't smile much, she's kind and generous. She's not petty."
"Then why is she ignoring me? Doesn't she want to play with us?" Zhang Xiaoyan still felt aggrieved. "Did I upset her last time because I said I wouldn't think about it? I swear to God, I didn't know she was your colleague, let alone your boss's wife.
Seeing how well you treated her, taking such good care of her, I felt bad, and I lost control and said something I shouldn't have said. Later, I called home and told my mom about it, and she scolded me profusely.
They said your job is dangerous and secretive, and many things can't be told directly to others, otherwise it would be a violation of discipline. For someone like me to come to you on my own initiative is also a violation of discipline. Feiwen! Will your boss punish you for this?"
"No." Hearing the woman on the back of the bicycle worrying about him, Feiwen felt a little relieved. "Our boss is not an unreasonable person."
"That's good. I only have two days left of vacation. I'm so happy you took me out today. I'll remember every moment you were nice to me." Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Xiaoyan put her arm around Feiwen's waist and put her face against his back. "Today is the first time I've been on a date with someone since I was a child. It's also the happiest moment of my life."
