152: Chapter 152 Chen Aila is simply a fat sheep.
[Today's Intelligence]
1. Gu Nanqiao has been targeted by Overseas Forces; she will encounter an attack tonight.
2. Chen Aila is choosing an office; Zhenbai Investigation Company will obstruct her.
3. Liu Zhixu's parents will arrive in Honghai City at noon with a blind date candidate for a surprise visit.
Quickly scanning today's intelligence, Luo Wei's heart skipped a beat!
Why would Gu Nanqiao be targeted by Overseas Forces out of the blue?
Just what is the identity of that Black Stocking Older Sister Figure?
He thought back carefully.
Luo Wei remembered Gu Nanqiao saying her father worked abroad.
Could it be that something happened on her father's end?
And so, those Overseas Forces are trying to move against Gu Nanqiao?
Luo Wei kept this piece of intelligence in mind. Since he knew the Black Stocking Older Sister Figure would be in danger, he naturally wouldn't just sit by and watch!
However, since the attack would happen at night, Luo Wei decided to handle the other intelligence first.
The second piece of intelligence was about Chen Aila choosing an office.
She was actually being targeted by that Zhenbai Investigation Company!
Luo Wei had no good feelings toward that Zhenbai Investigation Company.
Shen Yanqiu had once paid that company to help find evidence of her husband's infidelity.
Shen Yanqiu's husband had clearly cheated, but that Zhenbai Investigation Company actually lied through their teeth, saying he hadn't!
An infuriated Shen Yanqiu later took Luo Wei to their door to demand a refund!
After Luo Wei kicked a wall of the Zhenbai Investigation Company until it was covered in cracks...
the boss of that company hurriedly returned Shen Yanqiu's money.
Now, that company was targeting Chen Aila!
Luo Wei let out a cold chuckle!
That company is truly tired of living!
Luo Wei planned to handle this matter first!
As for the third piece of intelligence today—Liu Zhixu's parents' surprise visit to Honghai City.
That would happen at noon, so Luo Wei decided to make a dramatic entrance then to help that Little Devil.
Just as Luo Wei finished planning these things, his phone rang; it was Chen Aila calling.
Answering the call, Luo Wei instinctively asked, "What's wrong? Did you run into some trouble?"
"I haven't run into any trouble!" Chen Aila's tone was quite cheerful.
She began to chatter excitedly.
"Didn't you tell me to find an office yesterday? I've picked a place!"
"After some research, I found out that the most famous Private Investigator in Honghai City is called Zhenbai Investigation Company."
"Coincidentally, there's a floor for rent in the very building where Zhenbai Investigation Company is located!"
"If we set up our office there, we can steal some of Zhenbai Investigation Company's business!"
Chen Aila's explanation made Luo Wei realize what was happening!
That girl actually planned to steal their business!
No wonder Zhenbai Investigation Company targeted her!
However, Chen Aila had done absolutely nothing wrong in this matter!
She wanted to do the business of a Private Investigator, and Zhenbai Investigation Company had no right to obstruct her!
"You really have a good head on your shoulders!" Luo Wei praised Chen Aila. "Where are you? Take me to see the place!"
"I'm already downtown!" The gossip-loving Chen Aila couldn't wait to get the Private Investigator business up and running.
"I'm planning to haggle a bit and see if I can rent that floor at a cheaper price!"
"I'll send you a location later. If you're free, come over and take a look!"
Luo Wei agreed with a smile, turned the steering wheel, and drove toward the city center.
On the other side, at the Financial Building, Zhenbai Investigation Company.
As the Company Boss, Company Boss was very diligent.
It was only eight in the morning, and he had already arrived at the office for work.
As soon as he entered the office, the Black Silk Secretary quickly followed him in her high heels.
"President You!" The Black Silk Secretary's face was full of excitement. "I investigated that person from yesterday; she's simply a big fat sheep!"
"Who?" Company Boss asked while taking off his coat. He had to investigate so many people every day that he had no idea who the "big fat fish" the secretary was talking about was.
The Black Silk Secretary smiled and pointed downstairs. "Wasn't there a woman yesterday who wanted to open an investigation company on the floor below us? At the time, President You, didn't you ask me to investigate her situation?"
Company Boss sat down in his executive chair. He remembered the matter and nodded for the secretary to continue.
"That woman's name is Chen Aila. President You, you'll never guess!"
"Chen Aila's father is Chen Yaoting!"
"Oh?"
Hearing the name Chen Yaoting, Company Boss immediately became interested!
Chen Yaoting was quite famous in Honghai City, and his death a while ago was very mysterious!
The Black Silk Secretary continued to explain, "Didn't Chen Yaoting die recently? Word is, he left his entire inheritance to Chen Aila!"
"I've investigated Chen Aila. She has no background at all, and her Relatives are all insignificant!"
The Black Silk Secretary didn't say more, but her eyes were gleaming!
Her meaning was simple: she wanted Company Boss to take action.
To seize the inheritance Chen Aila had received!
Company Boss was somewhat tempted, but he didn't rush to act.
He was a bit curious. "That Chen Aila, she inherited a massive fortune. Logically, she should have achieved financial freedom. Why would she open an investigation company?"
The Black Silk Secretary happened to have the answer to this question, and she quickly explained, "I asked the leasing staff."
"Yesterday, while looking at the building, Chen Aila said that she is a very gossipy person."
"So, she wants to open an investigation company to enjoy all kinds of gossip every day!"
The Black Silk Secretary's account moved Chen Yaoting.
He nodded. "Arrange for someone to test that Chen Aila."
"If Chen Aila doesn't have any backing, then we'll strike!"
"Once it's done, you can have a one-percent commission!"
"Thank you, Boss!" The Black Silk Secretary was overjoyed!
You see, Chen Yaoting was a business tycoon in Honghai City; Chen Aila must have inherited at least several hundred million!
If they seized the inheritance from Chen Aila's hands, even a one-percent commission would be at least a million to start with!
Neither the Black Silk Secretary nor Company Boss thought there was anything immoral about doing this!
The investigation company he ran basically preyed on both sides!
Once they got dirt on someone...
...he would be like a mad dog biting into meat, never letting go!
That's just how the world is—big fish eat little fish!
Downstairs from Zhenbai Investigation Company.
Accompanied by the leasing staff, Chen Aila was touring the entire floor again.
She was mentally calculating how to haggle, completely unaware that she was being watched!
That Black Silk Secretary was currently leading several people, aggressively heading downstairs...
