City C is nearly 300 kilometers away from City F, and it takes about two and a half hours to drive.

In the middle of the journey, Uncle Wang received a call from the secretary next to Ling Xiao, asking if Ling Tang had been received.

After Uncle Wang gave a positive reply, the secretary's voice paused and said, "Mr. Ling, please send the lady directly to the Ling Group."

Because it was on the highway, Uncle Wang turned on the speakerphone, and several people in the car heard this sentence.

Lingtang was a little surprised. For some reason, her father and brother never allowed her to go to the group or appear in public.

Even the official engagement announcement issued by the group did not include her photo.

Therefore, the outside media and the employees of the Ling Group have no idea what the daughter of the Ling Group looks like.

Her brother asked her to go to the Ling Group. Could something have happened?

Lingtang took out her phone from her pocket and looked at the time. Two hours had passed since she was taken away.

During this period, Shen Peizhi didn't get a call, and there were only a few unread WeChat messages on his phone, all from Gong Mi.

Gong Mi sent a photo and said that someone in the dormitory was packing her things, but no matter what she asked, the other person refused to answer.

The last message Gong Mi sent was [Lin Tang, who are you? 】

Who is she?

Ling Tang smiled bitterly. This was a good question. She didn't know who she was.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at Ling's Group, and Ling Xiao's secretary had arrived at the entrance of the lobby on the first floor 5 minutes early.

The car stopped steadily at the door, the electric side door opened, and the secretary immediately came forward.

Ling Tang got out of the car and saw the woman in a white professional suit approaching, guessing that she must be his brother's secretary.

As expected, the secretary stretched out his hand to her, introduced himself to her with a smile, "Hello, Miss Ling, I am Mr. Ling's secretary, Lisa Dong."

Lingtang stretched out his hand to respond to her symbolically, and then followed her into the building.

The main hall of the building is extremely bright. People coming and going are wearing professional suits and have professional fake smiles on their faces.

When they saw them, they all greeted Lisa, "Special Assistant Dong, good afternoon!"

Lisa responded to everyone who greeted them. She smiled and waved to them, "Good afternoon."

Several people noticed Ling Tang behind Lisa. They looked at her, whispered to each other, and speculated on the identity of this girl with good looks and elegant temperament.

Walking to the president's exclusive elevator, Lisa scanned the access control with the badge hanging around her neck, and the elevator door opened.

After they entered, Lisa pressed the top button. Next to the top button, it was marked President's Office in English.

Ling Tang followed Lisa and kept paying attention to the surrounding environment. He had to say that the environment in his brother's office was really good.

When they arrived at the president's office, Lisa took her directly in and placed her on the guest sofa.

"Mr. Ling has another meeting, which is expected to end in 10 minutes. Please sit down for a while."

Ling Tang nodded, indicating that he understood.

Lisa asked again, "What do you drink? Coffee or black tea?"

In the past few months of hiding in the market, Lingtang has become accustomed to not bothering others. She answered casually, "Anything is fine."

This answer was not difficult for Lisa, who was good at observing words and expressions. She smiled knowingly and said, "I'll make arrangements right away."

After Lisa left, Lingtang stood up and wanted to walk around.

She had just been in the car for too long, and her back was aching. Plus, she hadn't eaten at noon, so she was also a little hungry.

This is a large office. In addition to the mahogany desk and leather chairs, there is also a spacious reception area and a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Lingtang walked to the window and looked around. Reinforced concrete buildings stood in front of him.

There is a viaduct on the opposite side, and there is a constant flow of vehicles on the viaduct.

These vehicles, viewed from the height she was standing on, looked like tiny toys.

My brother should often stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows like her, looking down at the city.

Ling Tang didn't have much idea about the Ling family's financial resources, but he often read news about the Ling Group and his brother on the Internet.

There was once a financial report that rated my brother as the business tycoon with the most development vision in the past 30 years.

Growing up, she had enjoyed all this with peace of mind, but now standing in this office, she felt an inexplicable feeling of powerlessness.

Someone knocked on the door gently, and Lingtang came to his senses, walked to the reception area, and sat down in his original position.

"Please come in!"

The door was pushed open, and Lisa walked in with a cup of black tea. In addition to the black tea, there was also a piece of cake on the tray.

Putting the contents of the tray on the table in front of her, Lisa smiled and said, "Miss Ling, please take it easy and I won't disturb you."

Lingtang didn't like to eat sweet things, but because she was very hungry, after Lisa left, she still picked up the piece of cake and ate half of it.

After a while, there was movement outside, and when he heard familiar footsteps, Lingtang sat up straight and looked at the door.

The door opened and Ling Xiao strode in. The moment he saw him, Ling Tang stood up and called out uneasily, "Brother!"

Ling Xiao glanced at her lightly and said nothing. Then he saw half a cake on the table and frowned.

Lingtang keenly caught this change in him and thought he had done something wrong. Just when he was about to apologize, he heard him say to the secretary behind him, "She doesn't like cake. Go to the restaurant downstairs and bring a meal."

Lisa heard the sound, apologized in a panic, and quickly arranged for someone to get food.

Lingtang, on the other hand, was still immersed in the shock of his words "She doesn't like eating cakes" and could not recover.

How did my brother know that he didn't like cake?

Ling Xiao sat down on the sofa opposite her. Seeing that she was still standing, he said coldly, "Sit down."

Ling Tang heard the sound and stammered back, "Okay... okay!"

Then I sat down quickly!

Ling Xiao had already seen her panic, and looked her up and down, with a hint of displeasure in his tone, "What kind of street stall are you wearing? Don't you have a black card in your hand?"

Ling Xiao did not freeze her black card.

For him, since he chose to indulge her willfulness, he must leave enough room and escape route for her.

In fact, Lingtang is rich, and the money from selling Hermès is enough for her to squander, but she ran away this time and took the route of a civilian college student. Isn't it normal for college students to wear street clothes?

She thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to answer like this. This is what she said, "Swipe the black card and you can find out where I am."

Ling Xiao sneered. It seemed that she wasn't too stupid. "You didn't swipe the black card. I still found where you are."

Lingtang was noncommittal.

Ever since she came out of the police station that time, she knew that it was only a matter of time before Ling Xiao found her.
