Chapter 300: Discovering the Secret
However, my garment processing factory is currently doing fairly well overall; although I haven't received many orders yet, after all, this still needs to be managed slowly.
Today, I finally finished everything early, and the time is still early; she also wanted to go with her father to report this matter.
After all, this is also the first business that Father carefully set up for me.
However, Zong Mengni called several times, but the phone remained unreachable, and she didn't know what was going on.
Fortunately, it was still early, so after leaving the factory, Zong Mengni went straight to Zong Long's Xing Ya Company.
Just after she parked the car, she saw two familiar people walking over from that side.
Originally, Zong Mengni had already opened the car door, about to get out, but after seeing all this, she suddenly stopped.
Because she saw them clearly, the two foreigners were likely the same two she had seen before, who had argued with him in Zong Long's office.
After seeing the two people get out one after another, he just walked together with them, whispered a bit, and then each got into a black sedan.
It's obvious they came here to look for Zong Long.
When one of the foreigners got into the car, in that instant she suddenly saw a familiar person sitting in the front passenger seat.
Zong Mengni thought she was mistaken, so she widened her eyes; indeed, she saw clearly that the person was Liu Peipei.
What, what is going on? How could Liu Peipei suddenly be with these people?
He wouldn't believe that Liu Peipei was with these people because she had betrayed Xiao Ming.
She concluded that there must be a reason for this.
Zong Mengni lowered her head, then watched the two cars leave the parking lot one after the other.
This isn't right—what is going on, and how could such a situation suddenly appear?
Zong Mengni recalled that she had once sensed someone inside her father's office.
But when he went in, he found that there seemed to be no one else.
Only then did he realize that those people had probably been hiding in a room inside.
And Zong Long naturally didn't want him to know what was inside.
Were those two people back then somehow connected to these two, or could they actually be the same people?
Zong Mengni dared not hastily conclude all of this.
She hurriedly locked the car door, then got out of the car again.
She directly took the elevator to the floor where Zong Long's office is located.
Since these two foreigners appeared here, there's a good chance Zong Long is also in his office.
Why, even though someone was in the office, couldn't he get through on the phone just now?
Zong Mengni came to the outside of the office door, took a deep breath, and then lightly knocked on the door.
"Come in."
As expected, Zong Long's voice came from inside.
After pushing the door open, she lightly inhaled, and indeed she sensed a smell of tobacco permeating the air.
Although the smell was faint, Zong Mengni, who never smokes, is still very sensitive to the smell of smoke.
Moreover, he clearly remembered that the smoke smell he had detected last time was exactly the same as this time.
So she quietly turned her head to look, and indeed there was an ashtray placed in the corner of the desk.
"Mengni, why did you come suddenly?"
"You still talk? I've called you several times, but your phone has been unreachable—what's going on?"
"I guess it's probably out of battery—what's wrong, what's the matter?"
Zong Mengni felt strange; he didn't even pick up his phone to look, just saying it must be out of battery.
And how would he know all of this?
"Oh, nothing—I just noticed you haven't been home these two days, so I wanted to talk about the factory."
"Mengni, Dad already told you that the factory matter is entirely up to you, so you don't need to report to me; don't forget, you are an independent legal entity."
"Dad, I know, but you also need to know something about the factory, right?"
"Mengni, Dad has some other things to attend to, so he really doesn't have time to listen to you here; how about this: let's wait until tomorrow, when Dad comes home early in the evening, and then we can discuss it together—what do you think?"
"Well then, since you're busy, I won't disturb you—I'll go first."
"All right, you go ahead."
Zong Long really seemed to be busy with something, and even didn't have time to attend to himself.
After leaving Zong Long's office, Zong Mengni had just reached the elevator lobby when she heard her phone ring once.
She lowered her head to look and found it was a missed call.
This isn't right—why didn't I answer the call when my phone wasn't on silent just now inside?
He looked at the phone number—it was Xiao Yunzhe calling.
She felt curious: why couldn't she get a call when she went into his room?
This shows that there must be no signal in that room.
Zong Mengni increasingly felt that these people were becoming mysterious, especially those two blond, blue-eyed foreigners.
He clearly knows that Liu Peipei should represent Xiao Ming, and if Liu Peipei appears beside that foreigner, it proves something.
Xiao Ming has already begun investigating Zong Long.
Moreover, Xiao Ming is smart; he knows that starting from those two foreigners might allow him to figure out more.
This might possibly play a decisive role for them.
She helplessly shook her head; although she already knew this, she still felt that if it were leaked, it would be very unfavorable for Xiao Ming.
After Zong Mengni's internal struggle went on for a while, she still absolutely would not say it.
Just as she entered the elevator, her phone rang again.
That's right, it's still Xiao Yunzhe who called.
"Yun Zhe, what's wrong?"
I had already entered the elevator, so I connected Xiao Yunzhe's phone.
