Chapter 136 There are spies around
The cell phone on the table rang for more than ten seconds without stopping. Yin Dong lazily sat up, turned his head and glanced at the phone screen, his eyebrows moving slightly.
Jiang Yuan guessed that the person who called must be someone important, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to answer the phone calmly after his interest was interrupted, and he wouldn't have answered with rare seriousness.
He never used this tone among his peers. Jiang Yuan guessed that the person on the other end of the phone must be an elder in the family.
She sat up from the sofa and sat next to him, straightening out the clothes that he had messed up while listening to him talking to the other person with her ears perked up.
"What's so shameful that you have to go back and talk about it so late at night? Can't you wait until daybreak?"
"Got it, I'll be there in a minute."
He hung up the phone and turned his head to look at her. The lust in his eyes had not faded yet, but he said in a deep voice: "I'm going home and will be back later. If you are tired, go to bed first and don't wait for me."
Jiang Yuan really wanted to ask what it was but it was obviously over the line, so he would probably just tell her not to worry about it.
She hesitated to speak, thought for a moment and said, "Then be careful on the way. If it's too late, you don't have to come back."
He pinched her chin, then bent down and kissed her twice before standing up and picking up his coat and leaving.
Late at night in North City, the traffic on the road was still flowing. Yin Dong leaned back in the back seat, his dark eyes sweeping across the buildings outside the window. The flashing neon lights illuminated his handsome outline through the window glass. He suddenly asked the driver in the front seat, "Has the old man been looking for you recently?"
The driver, Lao Zhang, immediately straightened up and looked in the rearview mirror. Yin Dong, sitting in the back seat, didn't look at him with his eyelids drooping, but continued to talk to him, "Lao Zhang, you've been with me for a while now. Your son just got a permanent job at Dongjin, and I thought you were one of us. I didn't expect you to still be so sentimental. What good did the old man promise you that would make you do such a traitorous thing at your age?"
"Once unfaithful, never again. You've been with me for over a year, you know my temper. Tell your son he doesn't have to go to work tomorrow. You should retire early too. It's probably hard to find a driver job at your age."
Perhaps because of Lao Zhang's age, his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but every word made Lao Zhang feel like a thorn in his back, and he was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Young Master Yin, I really had no choice. The old man came to me personally tonight to ask about it, and I dared not tell the truth. I was caught in the middle and had no choice."
His tone was tearful. Yin Dong never treated his employees unfairly and offered him a salary twice as high as the normal level.
Yin Dong's two sentences were equivalent to destroying his job, and more importantly, his son's future was also ruined.
Lao Zhang wanted to plead, but the person in the back seat had already closed his eyes and obviously didn't want to say another word.
The car stopped outside a very low-key courtyard house in the center of the Second Ring Road. It looked like a very ordinary courtyard from the outside, with two solid and heavy vermilion-painted doors and a low threshold. Coming down the five-story white marble steps, a pair of stone lions stood on both sides of the door, the male lion on the left and the lioness on the right, squatting with their heads sideways.
Such old houses are not uncommon within the second ring road of the northern city. Compared with some very grand old houses, they can even be considered ordinary. The alley in front of the door usually has frequent traffic, and it is difficult for passers-by to guess the true identity of the owner of this house.
Yin Dong spent a lot of effort when purchasing this house for his parents. He spent half a year picking and choosing before choosing this seemingly ordinary house because it was in line with Yin Zhengxian's official style of not being separated from the people and living in seclusion in the city.
Yin Dong got out of the car and just took two steps up the stairs when the servant who had been waiting there opened the lacquered wooden door from inside.
