31: A family should be in good order!
“Oh, oh oh…”
After seeing the contents of Liang Yuzhu's identification, the young woman sitting next to him and Lan Zijun quickly took off her headphones and timidly handed over her laptop.
“Thank you.”
Liang Yuzhu thanked her, then motioned for Lan Zijun to take the USB drive and connect it to the computer.
Just as they were about to open the USB drive, they noticed the young woman at the next table, the original owner of the laptop, also staring at the laptop screen with curious eyes.
“Ahem…”
Clearing her throat a few times, Liang Yuzhu turned the laptop screen away. The young woman then realized her lapse in etiquette, repeatedly apologized, and turned her head away.
Confirming that no one else around was paying attention to them and that the surveillance camera overhead couldn't capture the screen.
Liang Yuzhu and Lan Zijun were confidently opening the USB drive.
Click, click, click—
With the mouse clicks, the screen display changed.
A flushed and distorted face appeared on the screen, followed by a hoarse voice.
“You bitch…”
With a 'snap', Liang Yuzhu closed the laptop screen as quickly as possible.
She was very glad at this moment that she had noticed the young woman's gaze just now.
Otherwise, it would have been a crime!
Taking a breath and calming herself down, Liang Yuzhu spoke with feigned composure: “So, can you recognize who these two are?”
“Yes, Qian Boda, and my personal doctor, Fang Fei.”
Lan Zijun's expression was blank, but her pupils were trembling!
She was extremely shocked internally, but her outward appearance remained icy, unlike Liang Yuzhu, whose features were distorted by shock.
Spending this 40 million was worth it!
Lan Zijun thought to herself.
After confirming the contents of the USB drive, Liang Yuzhu drank the coffee in her cup and looked up to ask Lan Zijun.
“What do you plan to do next, confront Qian Boda?”
Without giving a reply, Lan Zijun stared straight ahead, silent.
Putting down her cup, Liang Yuzhu's expression turned serious, and she said:
“Lan Ziju, don't advise others to be kind if you haven't experienced their suffering. I don't want to say anything insincerely pleasant.”
“I'll just say two things:”
“First, if you need me, just say the word.”
“Second, everything you do to Qian Boda must be legal; there must be nothing illegal about it.”
“These are my only two requests. Can you promise me?”
Looking directly into her best friend's eyes, Lan Zijun knew that Liang Yuzhu was worried she would be consumed by anger and wanted to protect her.
“Okay.”
Lan Zijun nodded slightly, giving Liang Yuzhu a reassuring answer:
“I promise you, I won't break the law.”
“Good.”
Receiving the reassuring answer, Liang Yuzhu gave her best friend a smile.
“Alright, I won't talk to you anymore, I have to go back to the team. I've been out for quite a while.”
Standing up and straightening her clothes, Liang Yuzhu wiggled her fingers at Lan Zijun as a farewell gesture, then turned and left, leaving behind a stylish figure.
Watching her friend leave, Lan Zijun withdrew her gaze and refocused it on the USB drive she held in her hand, her eyes suddenly becoming sharp.
【Liang Yuzhu, I'm sorry...】
Lan Zijun narrowed her eyes, murmuring in her heart.
【I'm afraid I'm going to break my promise】
Immediately after, she took out two hundred-yuan bills, placed them casually on the table, stood up, and walked out of the coffee shop.
...
Meanwhile.
After driving back to the Police Station, Liang Yuzhu immediately had her subordinates contact the traffic Police Officers to ask for their assistance.
According to the time, they retrieved the traffic surveillance camera footage around Laifusi to look for the mysterious old man's whereabouts.
After a search, their efforts were rewarded.
“Found him!”
Click, click—
Clicking the mouse, Liang Yuzhu paused the surveillance video playback, her eyes quickly locking onto a familiar figure.
“We meet again, old man!”
With a cold smile, Liang Yuzhu pressed the play button, and the video continued.
Liang Yuzhu focused intently on the old man's movements, following him continuously.
She had originally thought she could capture the old man's movements and then dispatch someone to apprehend him.
But in the video, the old man seemed very familiar with the surrounding environment, weaving and turning on his bike before disappearing into a small alley.
That alley was a blind spot for the surveillance, so he couldn't be seen.
The video was searched back and forth many times, but the old man's figure still wasn't seen.
Unwilling to give up, Liang Yuzhu also took a screenshot of the electric bike the old man was riding and sent it to the Municipal Department, asking them to help with the investigation.
But the result she got was:
The electric bike the old man was riding was a modified shared electric bike, which were everywhere in the city, making it impossible to track.
Lost him again!
“Damn it!”
Liang Yuzhu, who was usually not one to mince words, couldn't help but curse.
This, however, only further fueled Liang Yuzhu's competitiveness, and of course, even more so her curiosity. Her desire to find this mysterious person grew stronger.
...
On the other side.
Lan Zijun had already driven back to the company.
At this time, the online bidding conference by the Municipal Department had ended.
Yuantu Investment Company's results were quite good; even without President Lan Zijun present, relying on rich experience and supply chain control, they successfully secured 8 major projects.
Although it was far from the plan Lan Zijun had initially set, it was still a gain and not a complete loss.
When Lan Zijun returned to the company, it was bustling with activity, everyone preparing for the subsequent matters. No one even noticed Lan Zijun's return.
Equally unnoticed was Su Yue, who quietly returned to his workstation.
Everyone was busy calculating and preparing for the upcoming work, and no one paid much attention to Su Yue.
Only Li Haoyang winked and made faces at Su Yue, saying mysteriously:
“Su Ge, why were you gone for so long? Were you…”
Su Yue couldn't help but frown upon hearing this, but the next second, Li Haoyang suddenly grinned mischievously:
“Were you sneaking out to find a place to rest and slack off?”
Breathing a sigh of relief, Su Yue had thought his whereabouts were exposed. He smiled at Li Haoyang and said, “I didn't expect you to find out.”
“Don't worry, Su Ge.”
Leaning closer, Li Haoyang lowered his voice and whispered in Su Yue's ear, “I covered for you, didn't tell anyone.”
...
Su Yue's side was uneventful that night.
Lan Zijun, in her luxurious mansion, didn't sleep all night, fully immersed in planning how to punish Qian Boda.
Rip—
Pulling open the curtains and stretching, Lan Zijun felt the warm sunlight streaming through the window, warming her entire body.
But.
Her heart was cold.
Qian Boda, a beast whose face you know but not his heart.
He must be made to pay the price.
Walking into the bathroom, after washing up, she took a relaxing bath to drive away her fatigue. Lan Zijun felt her body loosen up.
After drying off, she walked into the dressing room. Facing the dazzling array of luxurious clothes, Lan Zijun chose a sharp casual outfit, styled her hair in a bun, and paired it with a Judith Leiber glasses.
Even though the overall look was in cool, dark tones, she herself shone brightly and was very eye-catching.
After getting everything ready, Lan Zijun entered the garage and chose an Aston Martin from among a dozen luxury cars.
Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom—
The roar of the engine was deafening. Releasing the brake, the luxury sports car sped away, racing down the road.
