Stealing Your Heart Chapter 925

“I have no idea what you’re talking about. Go on, let’s take a look at the proposal. It’s time to work,” said Zong Yanxi calmly while meeting his gaze. “I think you’re the one acting strange today.”

Buzz buzz.

Her phone rang.

She whipped out her phone to read the text sent by Tian Qifeng. After reading the incident which happened at Hengkang’s entrance today, her eyebrows raised. Jiang Mohan, you seem to lead a glamorous life, but you’ve never had romantic or familial love.

“Oh? Is that so? Pray tell, Ms. Lin.” Jiang Mohan was still looking at her.

“I heard you’re an indifferent man. Well, you seem particularly enthusiastic today. Have you taken a fancy to me?” Zong Yanxi chuckled. “I’d like to remind you that I have a boyfriend.”

At her answer, Jiang Mohan was plunged into frustration. He forced a smile and said, “Thank you, Ms. Lin, you can leave now. I’ll read the proposal later.”

Zong Yanxi rose to her feet. “Alright then. If you have any comments, do contact me anytime, and I’ll make the changes as needed.”

She left after saying his piece.

Jiang Mohan sat still for a long time after she left before picking up the file.

When he came to the last page of the file, his phone rang.

“President Jiang, I’ve sent you an email. We saw this person at Xinhai Investment,” said the man on the other end of the line.

Jiang Mohan clicked on the new email he had just received. A photo of someone he knew appeared. Guan Jing.

He knew who Guan Jing was.

Narrowing his gaze, he thought, Why would Guan Jing appear at Xinhai Investment?

Soon, something occurred to him.

His gaze landed on the proposal Zong Yanxi had just delivered to him. I gave her a month, but she finished it in just a few days without any loopholes. Is she extremely capable, or is this part of a bigger scheme?

Come to think of it… The latter makes more sense.

After all, Guan Jing is Zong Jinghao’s trusted right-hand man.

Why would he appear at Xinhai Investment, a company that I’m going to acquire soon? About Ling Wei…

He soon figured everything out. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Ling Wei’s arrest must be Guan Jing’s doing. Otherwise, her crimes wouldn’t be exposed so suddenly.

Besides, she was dealt with effectively.

The USB drive which I received earlier, too.

It seems like a jumbled mess, but it was in fact, a clue.

Guan Jing is back to avenge Zong Yanxi?

Am I going to be his next target after Ling Wei?

Is Xinhai Investment a trap?

I can understand Guan Jing’s actions as he’s working for that man. But what about Lin Ruixi?

Who is she?

Is she really Zong Yanxi?

Suddenly, his heart started thumping furiously. If I am correct, Lin Ruixi should be Zong Yanxi.

There are too many connections. Her mother’s surname is Lin.

It also explains why Guan Jing was there.

Is she… still alive?

Trying hard to suppress his excitement, he urged, “Anything else?”

“He was inside for around an hour. I can’t be sure what their discussion was about since I couldn’t get near to them,” reported the man.

Previously, Jiang Mohan had sent the man to investigate Xinhai Investment. The investigation had been underway all the while as this would be a huge investment for him.

“Got it. You can stop the investigation now.” He was sure the acquisition was a trap.

Everything now made sense to him, but he had no evidence to prove Lin Ruixi’s real identity.

Standing up, he decided to clarify things.

When he exited the building, Zong Yanxi was no longer there. Standing next to the busy road, he took out his phone to give Lin Ruixi a call.

Very soon, the call was connected.

“Hello?”

“Ms. Lin, I need to talk to you about the proposal. Please come to my office now.”

Zong Yanxi glanced at her watch. It was already 6 p.m., and she had a dinner appointment with Guan Jing. That dinner was supposed to be when Gu Xian and Guan Jing would meet for the first time. Thus, there was no way she could be late for this.

“President Jiang, I’ll be there tomorrow morning-”

“No. I must see you now.” He added, “The proposal you gave me has a loophole. I require an explanation from you now!”

He was adamant and hung up right after saying that.
