Chapter 801

"Yes."

Zhang Tezhu tapped on the video that a colleague had forwarded to him.

It was only a few seconds long, but the faces of Qiao Muting and Xu Zihan were captured clearly.

Coupled with the filter the photographer had specifically adjusted, it looked exceptionally beautiful.

Hmm, at a glance, the two of them appeared particularly in love, highlighted by the atmosphere.

Zhang Tezhu was almost dumbfounded when he saw the video, suddenly afraid that Shu Xia might see it.

Qiao Muting's face turned cold, thinking of how Shu Xia had been lost in thought while looking at her phone last night, her gaze lingering on Xu Zihan's face for a few seconds, and he said, "Find someone to delete the video and lower the trending topic."

"Alright, I'll go do it now."

Once in the office, Qiao Muting called Shu Xia.

Shu Xia did not answer.

Qiao Muting frowned slightly.

——

Shu Xia was not intentionally ignoring the call.

She had gone to work.

After resting for a period of time, much of the work had been done by other colleagues, and the tasks that required her completion had been left hanging.

Gu Lao was still worried about her injuries, so he only let her stay at the unit for a while before shooing her away.

It was only after she left the Gu Corporation Building that she saw Qiao Muting had called her.

Just as she was about to call him back, Jiang Tu approached her.

He said there was something he needed her help with and hoped she could come to his company.

Jiang Tu's family company was not far from her location, and after ending the call, Shu Xia forgot to call Qiao Muting back.

Jiang Tu had been waiting at the entrance early on.

Seeing Shu Xia, he swallowed the other words he had been about to say.

The short video he could find online, Shu Xia might have already seen.

Some things were not for him to blab about.

"I've always felt that my dad hasn't been quite right lately. I don't go home often, but I came to the company for no reason a couple of days ago and went into my dad's office. After I went in, I had an indescribable feeling. He knows you through Qin Lao and Gu Lao recently; he doesn't trust anyone else, and I said he wouldn't trust me either, so I can only ask you to come over and take a look."

He said this very politely.

Shu Xia had real ability, the kind of real ability that wasn't a joke.

Who would dare to shake their head and say it was no good when it was someone Qin Lao and Gu Lao nodded in praise of?

"Alright." Shu Xia nodded seriously.

She felt that the hand hidden behind the scenes had been acting more and more frequently lately.

She followed Jiang Tu all the way to Chairman Jiang's office.

At this time, Chairman Jiang was in a meeting.

When they ran into some staff members, they were all quite surprised to see her.

"A friend, don't let your imaginations run wild." Jiang Tu explained immediately; he didn't have that much nerve. Shu Xia was not like the women he had played with before.

He always felt that if people misunderstood, he would be taking advantage, but it would be insulting to Shu Xia.

Shu Xia couldn't help but smile. Jiang Tu was the type of person whose first impression might not be great, but after getting to know him, she felt he was a person who loved and hated clearly, quite an interesting person.

They arrived at Chairman Jiang's office.

It was very imposing.

The layout was very particular.

It was also evident that Chairman Jiang had arranged the office according to Feng Shui.

Jiang Tu was a bit nervous and asked from the side, "Is there a problem?"

Shu Xia looked carefully and asked at the same time, "I didn't ask just now, besides Chairman Jiang's office making you uncomfortable, is there anything else that makes you feel there has been a change? For example, has anything unusual happened to Chairman Jiang himself?"

"There has indeed. My dad has been talking in his sleep at night lately and having nightmares. Of course, he doesn't remember anything after waking up. My mom said she didn't take it seriously, but my mom is always startled awake in the middle of the night. She said that in all the years she's been married to my dad, it's only been recently that he's had nightmares, and the things he says in his sleep don't sound like sleep-talking; it's like he's really having a conversation with someone. Besides this, there shouldn't be anything else." Jiang Tu didn't hide anything.
