After knowing that Jiang Yao was the young lady from the mainland, Lin Lin felt a little uncomfortable with the meal.
After hastily finishing her meal, she put down her chopsticks and planned to return to the study.
Zhou Shen stopped her: "Why are you going? Are you planning to go back to work?"
Lin Lin raised her eyebrows and asked, "What? Didn't the boss say that we will continue the report in the afternoon? Do you want to stay here and be lazy?"
Zhou Shen glanced around to make sure that Sister An was not in the living room, then lowered his voice: "What's the matter with you? Didn't you hear what the Filipino maid said just now? The young master and the young mistress are going to have dinner in the bedroom. If you go upstairs to talk about work now, isn't it a waste of time?" The young master’s pleasure.”
Lin Lin disagreed: "Oh, I believe the boss knows what is more important. If you want to rest, just stay downstairs. I will go back to the study."
After saying that, she stepped onto the spiral staircase leading to the second floor without looking back.
Looking at her resolutely leaving figure, Zhou Shen sighed slightly in his heart: How could a person who usually has a lot of eyes be so stupid at this time? Couldn't she still see how special the young master was to that person, and she had to block her own future to verify it, hey...
Second floor.
Lin Lin stepped onto the last step and walked involuntarily towards the master bedroom. I saw that the door that was still half open before was now completely closed.
She couldn't see the scene inside, but she could hear some imaginative and charming sounds, all made by women.
After standing there and listening for a while, her eyes gradually darkened and her fingers clenched tightly in her palms. That woman was really a witch who brought disaster to the country, making the young master unable to even take care of his work.
Lin Lin stepped on Hentiangao and returned to the study with a displeased look on her face.
As soon as my butt touched the sofa, the phone on the desk rang.
The rapid ringtone echoed in the room, and she was stunned for a moment, should she answer it or not?
At this point, she still made the call from the study room. Maybe she had something important to report to the young master. After she answered the call, she could use this excuse to divert the young master's attention away from the woman.
Lin Lin no longer hesitated and answered the phone.
A man's deep and steady voice came from the other end of the phone: "I've checked everything you asked me to check."
Lin Lin held the phone and wanted to explain to the other party that she was not Chen Yanbei.
But the man obviously thought the silence on the phone was normal, because Chen Yanbei rarely talked, so he went on without waiting for her to respond:
"You are right. The Feng family is indeed the mastermind behind this. This incident was planned by them and a man named Brother Ji."
"This Brother Ji is not simple. He is a capable person under Jin Ye, the largest power in Southeast Asia. One of the companies we want to acquire is covered by this Brother Ji. Mr. Liang's acquisition is blocked, and it is Brother Ji who is hindering it. I think , why don’t we take advantage of this incident and give that brother Ji..."
At this point, the man paused because he found that the breathing on the other end of the phone was a bit strange, a bit faster than usual.
"You are not Chen Yanbei." The man said firmly.
Then he said in a nonchalant and warning tone: "Oh, you dare to answer the phone call in his study without permission. You are very brave."
After being discovered, Lin Lin's breathing became even more disordered: "I, I am his assistant. Please wait a moment. I will go to the boss to answer the call."
Putting down the phone, she clutched her chest that was beating rapidly, turned around and walked out of the study.
She has always been helping her boss handle business on the surface, and has never been involved in the underground field at all. The content of today's phone call obviously implies that the boss has another side of the industry.
The company in Singapore has indeed implemented an acquisition plan in the Southeast Asian market recently. According to the person on the phone, that guy blocked the company's acquisition, so he will be...
Without thinking about it further, Lin Lin stood at the door of the master bedroom again.
Separated by a wall, the woman's charming voice kept coming, like tiny needles piercing her eardrums.
She had prepared a report for a week, but it was delayed because of this woman. Apart from being pretty, what other advantages did this woman have?
Now that the Singapore company's acquisition plan is blocked, the young master should obviously handle it, but he is pestered by this woman...
Lin Lin's chest rose and fell, she took a deep breath, raised her hand and knocked on the bedroom door.
inside the room.
The printed silk dress was torn into pieces and scattered all over the floor.
Chen Yanbei carried Jiang Yao into the bathroom, helped her clean up her body carefully, and then returned to the bathroom to tidy herself up.
The meals sent upstairs by Sister An were placed on the coffee table in the room. Jiang Yao walked to the sofa and sat down. She placed the meals in the thermos bucket on the coffee table one by one. Then she rested her chin on her hands and waited eagerly for the man to pack them up and come out to eat together. .
Finally hearing movement from the bathroom door, Jiang Yao looked up and saw Chen Yanbei walking out neatly dressed. She smiled and raised her fingers at him: "Come here for dinner~ I'm already hungry."
"You don't mean to eat first when you're hungry. You don't need to wait for me." Chen Yanbei wiped his wet hair with a towel, then threw the towel into the storage basket for changing, stretched out his long legs, walked over and sat next to Jiang Yao Down.
Jiang Yao picked up a piece of beef brisket with chopsticks, fed it to his mouth, and winked at him: "Mr. Chen worked so hard just now, eat more beef to replenish your body."
Chen Yanbei raised his eyebrows and happily enjoyed her feeding.
However, as soon as the thin lips opened, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"You eat first, I'll go take a look." Chen Yanbei returned to his usual cold expression, raised his legs and walked towards the door.
Opening the door, Lin Lin's figure appeared in front of her.
"Mr. Chen, the phone in your study room rang for a while just now. I was afraid that I had something urgent to call you, so I answered the call. The person on the phone said that our company's acquisition plan in the Southeast Asian market had encountered obstacles, and someone was obstructing it. I heard The other party’s intention seems to be to get rid of that person directly.”
"Mr. Chen, with all due respect, there are considerable legal risks in doing this. After the company completes the acquisition, it will be listed in the United States. If this stain is left, I am afraid that the China Securities Regulatory Commission will..."
"Are you teaching me how to do something?" Chen Yanbei put one hand in his pocket and stared at her coldly, his whole body feeling chilly.
Lin Lin was forced to take a step back by the indifference in his eyes, and said tremblingly: "Yes, I'm sorry, boss, I am also doing it for the good of the company. There are many legal ways to solve the problem, why use the most extreme one?"
Ha, a sneer escaped Chen Yanbei's lips.
If he had really followed what she said, he would not be alive now. What's more, she didn't even know the whole story, which was totally not the working attitude a professional assistant should have.
"I paid you to hire you, not to listen to your self-righteous advice, okay?" Chen Yanbei raised his chin and stared at her with his dark eyes. There was no warmth in his voice.
The invisible sense of oppression was like a sharp, cold scalpel stabbing the tip of her throat. Lin Lin seemed to be strangled by an airtight net. The feeling of suffocation spread throughout her body, and her bones were shaking, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Boss, I, I..." She spoke with difficulty, wanting to give herself a chance.
Chen Yanbei raised his hand to interrupt and said coldly: "Go back and find a man to marry."
Go back and find a man to marry.
The sharp scalpel finally penetrated and hit Lin Lin's throat.
She prides herself on being different from those women who serve others with sex, get married early, and rely on pleasing men to live their lives. She is an elite in the workplace, an independent woman who can gain the respect of men through her work ability.
So this sentence completely destroyed the pride she had always had and caused her inner defense to collapse directly.
But obviously, her feelings were beyond Chen Yanbei's consideration. He raised his hand indifferently and slammed the door shut with a bang.
Jiang Yao naturally heard the conversation between the two at the door.
Chen Yanbei returned to the sofa and sat down with a cold face. Seeing that his expression was not good, Jiang Yao stepped forward and took his hand, saying with concern: "What's wrong, why are you so angry with the beautiful assistant? Don't be afraid to scare her away. "
Chen Yanbei rubbed the top of her hair, and his expression softened a bit: "I thought she was smart, but I was wrong. Not only did she answer my call privately, but she also expressed opinions without knowing the whole story."
That was indeed a bit stupid, but Jiang Yao still felt a little pity: "Hey, women have a harder time in the workplace than men. Even if they are not qualified to be your assistant, they can still arrange other positions in the company. Mr. Chen, you really You know how to hurt independent women..."
Although Jiang Yao was a little jealous at first that Chen Yanbei had a beautiful assistant next to her, but beyond this level, she felt that anyone who could be Chen Yanbei's assistant would have excellent work ability.
Chen Yanbei's knuckled fingers pinched her cheek, and the coldness in his black eyes completely turned into doting: "So who was jealous just now? Huh?"
Jiang Yao felt a little guilty: "Well... Xiaozuo Yiqing."
"What does zuo mean?" Chen Yanbei raised his eyebrows slightly.
Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment. She seemed to have forgotten that there was no such adjective as "semen" in this era. Her eyes moved and she explained: "It is probably an exclusive behavior for beautiful women."
Well, Chen Yanbei nodded and said, "Mrs. Chen, you are really special."
puff--
Jiang Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud, feeling like she shot herself in the foot.
Seeing her reaction, Chen Yanbei looked serious: "What's wrong? Isn't the praise sincere enough?"
Jiang Yao put the chopsticks into his hand: "Very sincere, very sincere, but the dishes are getting cold. Let's start quickly."
The two of them finished their meal quietly.
Chen Yanbei did not leave the bedroom immediately. He probably knew who made the call in the study, so he raised his hand and dialed a number directly.
On the other end of the phone, Huo Chenfeng's voice rang: "Hello?"
"it's me."
Two short words were enough to prove his identity. Huo Chenfeng immediately recognized his voice and joked: "You actually have a female assistant in your study. Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will settle a score with you?"
"You don't need to worry about that," Chen Yanbei said casually, "What progress have you found?"
Chen Yanbei told Huo Chenfeng to investigate the matter of a bomb tied to his car two days ago. This matter also concerned Jiang Yao, so he directly pressed the speakerphone and motioned Jiang Yao to listen together.
Huo Chenfeng put away his teasing tone and said seriously: "The Feng family is the mastermind, and the people who execute it are Brother Ji's men. This Brother Ji is the right-hand man of Lord Jin, the largest power in Southeast Asia. Lord Jin, you know, the situation in the Golden Triangle He has his own independent armed organization, and even the government is afraid of him."
"Speaking of which, this guy is still an 'old acquaintance' of mine. When I was kidnapped, he was also one of the kidnappers. Later, the spoils were unevenly divided. He took most of the money and ran out of the country. Fearing that he would be hunted down by his accomplices, he hid directly in Southeast Asia , took the money and surrendered to Lord Jin."
"Over the years, he has become Mr. Jin's right-hand man. He is in charge of part of Mr. Jin's arms business. The metal bomb strapped to your car is the product that leaked from his hands."
This matter involves Southeast Asian forces, so Chen Yanbei has to be cautious. That Jin Ye from the Golden Triangle not only sells arms, but also manufactures and sells drugs, which is very difficult.
"Then how did the Feng family get in touch with Brother Ji? Was it simply a matter of paying someone to kill someone, or was there some other dealings between the two of them?"
Huo Chenfeng naturally checked this question, and the answer surprised him: "We didn't pay attention to the Feng family before, but after checking, we found out that Feng Debao and your second uncle Chen Guoqiang jointly bought a mountain in Southeast Asia to mine gold mines. That Brother Ji also bought shares and helped them cover the scene."
Gold rush? Jiang Yao knew that there was indeed a gold rush in Southeast Asia in this era, and even many mainland workers were deceived into working as coolies.
At the beginning, the workers were promised that as long as they found gold sand and turned in the prescribed amount, they could save the rest by themselves, and additional wages would be paid. Everyone could easily get rich there.
As a result, when we got there, we were treated like animals. Confining you in the mining area and working day and night to find gold for the mine owner.
If the amount of gold turned in every day is not enough, the failure will be a severe beating.
Want to secretly save gold? After he was found, he was beaten again.
Want a salary? Haha, it still depends on whether you live to receive it.
Can't stand it anymore and want to run? Then just wait to be shot!
What Chen Yanbei didn't expect was that Erfang would team up with the Feng family to develop gold mines in Southeast Asia, and deal with someone as dangerous as Brother Ji. No wonder Feng Meizhu is so stupid, and her second wife still has to swallow her ass and wipe her ass.
Huo Chenfeng continued: "Both Feng Debao and Ji Ge grew up in Kowloon Walled City. They were neighbors and had a good relationship. But later Feng Debao chose to study, and Ji Ge joined the club after elementary school. Now it seems that Come on, the two of them do have a close friendship."
Hearing this, things are already clear. Chen Yanbei immediately thought of what Lin Lin said just now: "Our acquisition plan in Southeast Asia has been blocked. Is it also related to this guy?"
This is what Huo Chenfeng is about to say: "Exactly. The largest shipping company is covered by that guy. Originally, their boss agreed to the acquisition conditions, but in the end, the guy refused to sell it and even raised the price. , the price directly tripled the market valuation.”
"And even if we agree to this price, the company will have to operate in Southeast Asia in the future. If we are targeted by this guy, we will inevitably be extorted."
Huh, doubled? If you want to continue blackmailing me in the future, you are really opening your mouth. Chen Yanbei tapped the table with his fingers and said coldly: "Stop the acquisition first, and then you can check whether Mr. Jin above Brother Ji has any enemies."
"Okay." Even if Chen Yanbei didn't say anything, Huo Chenfeng still wanted to investigate this brother. It was time to settle the grievances caused by the kidnapping in the early years. Anyone who dared to extort the Huo family's money from him must spit it out to him now!
