Chapter 74: Teaming up
Before Suyang could finish his sentence, I yawned and stretched my lazy waist, “Ah.. I guess I’m not really awake yet. My head still feels sleepy… I’m going to sleep a bit more…”
“Quit pretending. It’s no use.” Suyang pinched my waist, “If you’re honest, I’ll be lenient. If you resist, the consequences will be severe.”
“Umm… since this was a task that you assigned me, I wanted to be precise and put some effort in it. So, I was talking to those aquarium people for quite some time to find out more about the fishes.” I felt guilty as I avoided Suyang’s eyes.
There was no response. After a moment, I carefully took a peek. Ah! We made eye contact! Do I seem extremely guilty right now?
“I’m curious to know what you have been discussing with the aquarium people?”
“I’ve already written down all the information in the power-point. Boss, you took a look yourself. Good night!” I leaped up from the couch and wanted to escape. But Suyang grabbed hold of my collar.
“You saw Mi Fan today, didn’t you? And then you followed her.”
“You were spying on me?” How did Suyang knew what I was doing? Earlier, when I had called him, he was clearly still sleeping!
Suyang coldly laughed, “Why would I be bored enough to spy on you? I know Mi Fan went to the aquarium for work purposes today, so I made a guess. And it looks like I guessed correctly….”
Damn it! I shouldn’t have admitted so soon!
“So what if I was following Mi Fan? That’s none of your business. I finished the mission you assigned me. I did not neglect my work!”
“I know you wouldn’t give up so easily. When are you going to listen to me?” Suyang wasn’t as angry as I thought he would be. Could it be…..
“Boss! Guess who I saw after I followed Mi Fan?” I decided to share my findings with Suyang, and then I’ll try to convince him to team up with me.
“Who?”
“Director Rui! He’s the director of the luxurious Jingrui hotel! The son of Chairman Jicheng!”
“How did you see him?”
I rummaged through my memories. Actually, it was purely an accident that I had encountered Director Rui. But the moment I recall him taking advantage of me, I was furious.
“That’s not important. What’s important is that I know some stuff. Do you want me to tell you?” I raised my eyebrows at Suyang to evoke his curiosity.
“What do you know?” Based on Suyang’s hesitant expression, he didn’t seem to trust me.
“If you agree to team up with me, I’ll tell you!”
“Team up?!”
“I’m not going to share my findings with you for nothing. Plus, we’re both investigating Mi Fan for Lu Zhengyang, right? Since we have the same goal, we might as well work together to combat evil! What do you think?” I clasped my hands together and made a praying gesture.
