“It’s too late to say anything now,” Zhao Youlin whispered. What was the point of thinking about the things that happened so long ago?
Sometimes, when it came to matters like life, as long as one took a small step forward, everything that followed would be completely different.
Zhao Youlin raised her head and let out a breath of turbid air. Then, she straightened her face and turned around to walk to the lounge on the side. With a serious expression, she called the people who were chatting
happily inside back to the office.
When they saw Zhao Youlin’s expression change, they shut their mouths and immediately stopped talking. They obediently followed behind Zhao Youlin and returned to the office with her.
Zhao Youlin took the document Qin Huai gave her and quickly walked to the office desk and sat down. She threw the document on the table, her aura was fully unleashed as she said, “Alright, now can you explain to me
why the matter that I had repeatedly asked you to keep a secret was leaked, in the end? Moreover, you even got someone else to help you investigate. You guys are really capable. Do you take my words for granted? Do
you really think that I can’t touch you just because you’re working under my father?”
“No, no, no. General Manager, please calm down. We don’t mean that.”
“What do you mean?”
Zhao Youlin’s vengeful look frightened them. They looked at each other in fear. Suddenly, they pointed at one of them and shouted together, “It’s him! He’s the one who leaked the news, and he’s the one who brought
him back.”
Zhao Youlin looked in the direction they were pointing at and saw a young boy standing there helplessly.
When he saw Zhao Youlin looking at him, the boy’s face suddenly turned red and he looked extremely nervous. Even his tongue began to twist. “General… General Manager…”
Zhao Youlin looked him up and down and frowned. “You’re the one who asked Mr. Qin to help look up information? What’s you name?”
“Chen… Chen Sen.”
“Chen Ginseng? Ginseng Ginseng?”
“No… No, Chen Sen as in ‘forest’. My parents said that I lacked wood in the five elements, so they gave me this name.”
Zhao Youlin chuckled. “Since you’re lacking wood, why would you get burned so easily? Your parents were probably lying to you.”
“Huh?” Chen Sen looked at Zhao Youlin in confusion, not understanding why she would say that.
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth twitched. This guy was really cute. His parents probably didn’t give him this name because he was lacking in the five elements, but because they thought he was as dumb as a log!
Zhao Youlin took a deep breath. She said helplessly, “Forget it. Let’s not dwell on this issue. Let’s get down to business. What’s going on? What’s your relationship with Mr. Qin? How did he know what we were
investigating? Did you tell him? Or did you deliberately leak it to him to get him to help you?”
Zhao Youlin’s barrage of questions got Chen Sen confused again. It took him a long time to realize that he seemed to be in big trouble. He swallowed hard and said, “Qin… Qin Huai is my cousin.”
“Cousin?” Zhao Youlin looked at Chen Sen in surprise. “Are you sure he’s really your cousin? How come he’s so smart, but you’re like… a block of wood?”
Chen Sen was speechless.
“Pfft…” The onlookers were hit by the joke when they heard that. However, when Zhao Youlin glanced over, they hurriedly cleaned up their facial expressions and acted as background characters in a serious manner.
Chen Sen scratched his head gloomily and said helplessly, “If you guys want to laugh, then just laugh. It’s not the first time someone has said that, anyway.”
When the people in the room who had managed to stop laughing after much difficulty heard Chen Sen’s words, they finally could not help but laugh out loud again.
Zhao Youlin was embarrassed, but she also could not help but laugh. However, although it was funny, she could not forget about the serious pressing matters.
Zhao Youlin coughed lightly and reminded them to stop. It was really embarrassing to bully such a child.
They saw the warning in Zhao Youlin’s eyes and felt that they were bullying the little one a little. They suddenly felt a little bitter and lowered their heads, trying not to laugh!
Zhao Youlin finally couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She looked at Chen Sen and continued, “Mr. Qin is your cousin? So you really took the initiative to tell him that we are investigating this?”
“No, it’s not…” Chen Sen shook his head guiltily and swallowed his saliva. “It’s… He accidentally saw the investigation documents that I put on the table when he went to my house, and then…”
“And then?”
“And then I was very nervous when I saw those documents at that time, and I even told him not to tell anyone. But he said that he was also in this line of work and could help me investigate. I thought that since he had
already seen it, one more person would be able to help us, so… so…” Chen Sen stole a glance at Zhao Youlin, and upon seeing that Zhao Youlin did not have any reaction, he dared to continue, “I asked him to help me
with the investigation. Who knew that after the investigation was really done, he suddenly said that he could not give it to me and had to hand it over to the General Manager in person. I had no choice but to bring him
here. General Manager, don’t be angry… Don’t be angry…”
Chen Sen became more and more guilty as he spoke. His voice became softer and softer, and his head became lower and lower. He did not dare to look at Zhao Youlin’s expression at all.
hao Youlin didn’t know what to say when she saw his expression. She sighed and took back the document on the table. Then, she opened it in front of everyone.
The people in the office all stretched their necks out. They wanted to see what it was that they could not find out, even after searching for a long time.
Zhao Youlin sensed their gazes. She raised her head and glanced at them expressionlessly. Their bodies trembled and their stretched necks immediately shrank back. They did not dare to act rashly.
They had heard people say that the General Manager looked young and easy to talk to, but in fact, she was the scariest person in the company besides the Chairman. At first, they didn’t believe it. After all, no matter
how they looked at it, Zhao Youlin was still a little girl who even looked to be one entire generation younger than some of them. But after what happened today, they really had no choice but to believe those words!
hao Youlin flipped through the documents page by page. At first, she was a little dispirited, but suddenly, as if she had discovered something, her expression suddenly changed.
The few people on the side had been paying attention to Zhao Youlin. When they saw that her expression had changed, their hearts instantly tensed up. They looked at each other and hesitated for a moment before
calling out in a low voice, “General Manager…”
hao Youlin did not have the time to pay attention to them. She stared at the document in her hand for a long time and suddenly walked quickly to the independent lounge next to the office.
She left the group of people in the hall looking at each other, not knowing what to do……
