what is my husband
Chapter 106
Manager Ma ignored the people behind him, and was about to leave with his head held high.
Li Qian stepped forward and grabbed him, "Why, you didn't explain why you cheated me?"
Manager Ma's suit collar was pulled out of shape, and he staggered back, screaming, and raised his hands to try to break Li Qian's hand.
"What's going on?" The elevator door opened suddenly, and a woman stepped out of it.
The woman has tall eyebrows and big eyes, with a sharp face, and her gestures reveal the aura of a superior.She frowned and stared at Manager Ma, and then took advantage of the opportunity to look at Li Qian who came to ask for an explanation.
Manager Ma was defeated by the menacing eyes, he hesitated and said: "I have a personal issue with this gentleman, let's deal with it immediately."
The woman gave a faint "hmm" and was about to turn around when she heard Li Qian sneer and say, "Personal matter? You cheated me into renting for three years. Is this a personal matter? You must already know what happened last night. Manager Ma, aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night when you do such a wicked thing!"
"What's the matter?" As soon as the woman turned around, Manager Ma knew that things couldn't be hidden.
Li Qian let go of Manager Ma and looked the woman up and down, "What's your name?"
Woman: "Cao Min."
Li Qian: "Miss Cao, you must have a higher position than Manager Ma. I don't know if you have heard of the haunted building in the middle of the night."
"What?" Cao Min didn't know whether it was because he was stunned or because it was too unimaginable, so he showed a puzzled expression.
"Ask Manager Ma." Li Qian spoke very bluntly, and looked at Manager Ma meaningfully.
Manager Ma wiped off his sweat, walked up to Cao Min with a big belly, "Mr. Cao, don't believe what he said, nothing happened in the building."
Cao Min looked at him coldly, without saying a word.
Under the oppressive gaze, Manager Ma lowered his eyes guiltyly, "Something happened, but it's not a big deal..."
Cao Min turned around and left. Standing among the group of elites, the assistant hurriedly followed. Before the elevator door was completely closed, the assistant said to Manager Ma: "Mr. Cao asked you to find an empty office and clean up a conference room. In addition, put Call that gentleman together."
Manager Ma gave Li Qian a hard look, and he approached after the others took the elevator upstairs, pointed at Li Qian with dissatisfaction and said, "Do you mean it? Do you know who that Mr. Cao is? Mom is going to kill me!"
Li Qian patted his hand that was pointing to the tip of his nose away, guessing: "Is she the senior leader of your group?"
Manager Ma's fierce expression froze.
Li Qian: "She took this position at a young age. She must have a close relationship with the major shareholder of your group. Is it a daughter, a niece, or some other relative?"
"She is the only daughter of the boss of our group!" The more Manager Ma thought about it, the more angry he became. How could he be so unlucky today to meet Li Qian, the God of Plague!
"Oh." Li Qian nodded and reminded, "Should we go to the meeting?"
Manager Ma didn't dare to disobey Cao Min's order, and reluctantly took Li Qian upstairs together.
The entire upstairs floor was vacant, and he quickly took someone to wipe the abandoned tables and chairs left by the previous tenants.
The group of people in suits sat down in an orderly manner. As soon as Cao Min was seated, everyone looked at her. They were very respectful to this woman.
Cao Min sat at the top, crossed her fingers on the table, and looked up at the last person on the right, "Manager Ma, please tell me in detail."
Manager Ma wanted to lie, but Li Qian was here, so he couldn't tell lies.
He could only hang his head, and said as if he was dead: "This building is haunted. Someone met me last night and was scared into the hospital."
"Pfft—" someone laughed out loud, and then quickly stopped.
Cao Min glanced at the man, pursed his lower lip, with mockery in his eyes.She spread her hands and shrugged to the others, "Did you hear what he said?"
"Understood." The people below responded one after another.
Cao Min's eyes turned cold, he stood up with his hands on the table, and looked sideways at Li Qian, "Sir, this is what you told Manager Ma before?"
"It's not all." Li Qian was completely unfazed by this wealthy young lady, "When I signed the contract, Manager Cao didn't clearly inform me of the situation of the building, and even persuaded me to sign a three-year contract all at once. Ms. Cao, you Come to judge, should I ask him to make a theory."
"The detailed situation of the building refers to being haunted?" Cao Min didn't believe this statement, and even found it funny.
"Yes." Li Qian said, "Why, didn't Manager Ma tell you about the lease situation of the building?"
Cao Min heard the sarcasm in the other party's tone, and believed that the entire group was in collusion with Manager Ma. She sat down again, rubbed her forehead and said to Manager Ma, "Tell me everything you know."
Manager Ma was about to cry, how could it be so unlucky that Li Qian and Mr. Cao bumped into each other.God wants to cut his way!
"During the construction of the building, bones and a coffin were dug out of the ground. Mr. Cao, you should know about this."
Cao Min paused for a moment, looked at the assistant in disbelief, and asked with his eyes: Is this true?
The assistant shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
Cao Min waved his hand to signal Manager Ma to continue.
Manager Ma: "Afterwards, the regional branch worked up and down, and the project was finally completed within the time limit. At the beginning, the leasing customers did not respond, and many people praised our property. But gradually, it was reported that someone Rumors of walking around. Until yesterday, a company employee downstairs had a ghost encounter while staying to work overtime, and when he came to work the next day, he suddenly passed out. The hospital said that he was overly frightened."
Cao Min knew nothing about these things. She had just taken over the management of the area, so she was very unfamiliar with everything.The reason why I chose this place for inspection is entirely because the rental situation of this building is so bad that the rent collected cannot cover the operation of the building.
Cao's office building business is mainly in foreign countries, and this building in City B is their first project in China.
At the beginning, she did not recommend exploring the domestic market, but her grandfather always had a wish in his heart, hoping to return to China in his lifetime.Unfortunately, his physical condition does not allow.
In order to help his father realize his wish, Cao Min's father came up with the idea of developing in China.
He is a man of action. In the second year, he started construction on the selected site.
Her older brother, who was much older than her, took the initiative to ask for supervision rights from her father in order to earn performance. In order to show his fancy for the project, he had to fly halfway across the world in a week and went to inspect it many times.
Who would have thought that the project would go awry.
Cao Min couldn't help wondering whether the reason why his brother let go of the domestic project was because he knew that sooner or later the building would lose customers due to rumors of "ghosting", and finally be abandoned by the group due to deficits.
She is a rational person, she raised her hand to suspend her memory, and left the conference room.
It was midnight on the other side of the ocean, and after a long beep, the phone was finally connected.
Cao Rui was probably woken up, and said irritably, "What are you doing, calling so late."
"Why didn't you report the matter of digging up the bones?" Cao Min's cold voice made Cao Rui tremble and wake up completely.
Supporting his body with his arms, he raised his hand to turn on the bedside lamp, a little nervous.
I don't know when, he began to feel afraid of this younger sister.Many times, as soon as Cao Min lowered his face, Cao Rui would immediately have the illusion that he was talking to his father himself.
A man in his 30s, he still hesitated when he spoke, "I, what... well, I thought it was not a big deal, and I didn't encounter any trouble in the process of handling it, so I didn't say anything."
"You are afraid that grandpa will be unhappy." Cao Min sneered. Grandpa is over 90 years old, and the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease are good and bad.If he knew domestic affairs while he was sober, he would rather lose money than let the project continue.
Being punctured, Cao Rui murmured: "It's not like you don't know, Grandpa is superstitious... Anyway, you know."
"What about the haunted building, you know?"
"I really don't know about this." Cao Rui said anxiously, "You are my own sister, if I know, I can let you go?!"
He paused, and because of nervousness, he swallowed loudly, even Cao Min who was over the radio could hear it.She thought it was funny, knowing that she made her brother nervous, she softened her voice, "Brother, I believe in you."
Cao Rui's tensed shoulders slumped, "Is the haunting real or fake? It sounds a little mysterious to me."
"Of course it's fake." Cao Min rolled his eyes, "Have you received your higher education for nothing?"
Cao Rui: "Is that someone pretending to be? Wanting to deliberately damage our family's business?"
Cao Min pondered for a moment, then said, "I'll check first and then talk."
After hanging up the phone, she stood on the spot and thought carefully. Her brother can't lie, so the person who deliberately deceived him was Manager Ma who was in charge of the operation.
Cao Min walked straight into the office, stood in front of his seat, and stared at Manager Ma without blinking.
Manager Ma felt weak all over, took a sip of mineral water against the sharp eyes, trying to calm himself down.
The guillotine hanging from his neck still fell down.
Cao Min: "Why didn't you report what happened in the building?"
The woman's voice pierced Manager Ma's heart like an ice knife, scaring him into shortness of breath and unbalanced heartbeat, and he completely forgot how to explain it.
Li Qian watched this scene silently, wondering whether Cao Min was singing a double reed with Manager Ma, or really raising doubts.
Manager Ma sat stiffly for a few seconds, and stood up shaking his legs, "Mr. Cao, it was my fault for not reporting it. That's because I know that you don't believe in ghosts and gods. I'm afraid that if you say it, you will think that I am doing something to myself. make excuse."
Not to mention Cao Min, even after hearing what the director of Tie Jun's company said, he still had doubts about the haunting.
The 21st century is not a feudal society with a lack of spiritual world, and ghosts and gods will not work.
Cao Min planned to pursue Manager Ma's responsibility after the fact. Right now, she wanted to ask the "participant" in the building carefully to find out what the hell was going on, which could make people twitch with fright.
After receiving the order, Manager Ma immediately went to each floor to look for the person who hit the ghost.
Li Qian, as half of the parties involved, was the first to accept the questioning.
"After I signed the contract, I found a professional cleaning company to clean, but was rejected. After the four companies heard about the company's address, they hung up on me without saying a word."
Li Qian looked at the person across from him seriously, and frowned slightly, "What do you mean? I don't know, but from the first day I stepped in, I felt eerie."
Sitting on the sidelines, Cao Min wanted to sneer, wondering if this could be used as proof that there is a soul body in the building?Obviously not.
She motioned for the assistant to continue.
Assistant: "Then Mr. Li, have you ever seen a so-called ghost?"
Li Qian: "No."
The assistant nodded and gestured for him to drink some water.
Cao Min sat by the window, looking at another office building not far away.Even during working hours, there are many people coming in and out.As for the building under her feet, just thinking about the depression she saw when she went upstairs just now gave her a headache.
Whether in terms of location or supporting properties, their office building is much better than the one opposite.She must not let this project become a stain on the family business.This is not just as simple as a loss, but also affects the image of the entire group.
What kind of supernatural event must be caused by the other family.
She must find out the person behind it and make him bear due legal responsibility.
Cao Min: "Just them?"
The subordinate said: "There is another person from Li's head office. He went to the bathroom and will come soon."
Cao Min nodded, and said to his assistant, "Next."
Li Qian got up from the stool and walked in front of Cao Min.
This woman is like a sharp knife, stubborn and cold. The ridicule and sneer in the other party's eyes when he spoke just now made him feel uncomfortable.
"Miss Cao doesn't believe in ghosts?"
"My grandmother is from the United States, and I myself was born and raised in the United States." Cao Min showed a habitual social smile, "Mr. Li, if I have to believe, then I should believe in God."
"Belief in God and acknowledging the existence of ghosts and gods are not in conflict." Li Qian sneered in his heart. The complexity and variety of the world has never been understood by anyone.Even physicists say that there may be multiple spaces in the universe.
Some people are still too young, superficial, and narrow-minded.
"Satan, who is feared by the believers, is also punished by God to leave heaven." Cao Min squinted at Li Qian's face of disapproval, "It can be seen that God's energy is greater than Satan. In my opinion, belief The strong are fine, there is no need to be afraid of the weak. Since I am not afraid, it is not so important whether I admit his existence."
Li Qian: "..." Unexpectedly, he couldn't refute.
Cao Min: "Mr. Li, after receiving a good education, why would you believe in these non-existent things? Don't you find it ridiculous?"
Li Qian suddenly thought of a sentence: The ignorant are fearless.
Some concepts are deeply rooted, Li Qian didn't want to continue to argue, "It's ridiculous, but I just believe it."
Sensing the other party's indifference, Cao Min shrugged, and his indifferent eyes fell on the girl who was talking.
She is a small Internet celebrity of a live broadcast company, and the company is on the second floor.
After listening to the assistant's question, the internet celebrity pursed her lower lip, slapped her slender and thick false eyelashes twice, and said softly: "I have something to do during the day, so I asked for leave, so I can only choose to come to the company for live broadcast at night. My live broadcast room is The one with its back facing the door. I was playing a game when I suddenly heard someone singing in the earphones. The tune was very similar to the lullaby I heard when I was a child, but the lyrics were different..."
The more Cao Min listened, the more she wanted to laugh, but out of courtesy, she held back.
After the Internet celebrity finished speaking, it was the next person's turn, an intern wearing glasses.The boy pushed down his glasses, he had always been skeptical about haunting.
"I caught a cold that day, and my work efficiency was low, so I had to stay on duty. Because I heard that it was haunted, I didn't dare to stay, so I planned to leave before seven o'clock. But then the medicine took effect, and I actually fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already At 08:30, the building was pitch black after the sun went down. I was a little scared, so I trotted into the elevator. I swear, I really didn’t press the floor button, but every time I got to the floor, the elevator would open the door. I ventured to look around, but there was no one outside."
The assistant nodded after the name. These remarks are obviously not as scary as Internet celebrities, and it is more likely that someone will play a prank.
He turned the notebook backwards and said, "Next."
Soon, Lu Ting finally arrived late.
Li Qian hurriedly winked at him: How did you get there?
Lu Ting pointed to his stomach: stomach hurts.
"I didn't hear the sound, but I saw it." The fifth person was a middle-aged woman, an aunt from the cleaning department.
She was holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, and she kept twisting the beads in her right hand with her left hand when she spoke, "I forgot my key in the cabinet that day, so I had to turn it back. When I first arrived at the workshop, I heard someone walking towards me. I was scared and didn't dare to turn my head, but I heard it, I really heard the door of the workshop creak and open!"
Auntie Cleaning grabbed the paper cup on the table and drained the water.
She fiddled with the prayer beads twice quickly, her lips trembling, "I didn't dare to move, I kept my back turned, and then, I felt someone approaching me, and I closed my eyes in fright."
Listening to this paragraph, it is more immersive and terrifying than the previous few people.
The assistant held the pen tightly, "And then?"
Auntie licked her dry lips, and someone next to her immediately brought a new glass of water to her.
"I felt cold on her body, and her face was facing mine. She seemed to be observing my face, from forehead to chin, every place for a long time. I don't know how long it took, wait for me When I came back to my senses, she was gone, and the door of the workshop was also tightly closed, as if it had never been opened."
The assistant stopped writing: "Have you ever thought that those might be your hallucinations?"
"It can't be an illusion. There are really ghosts. I have encountered them before. I can't be wrong."
Lu Ting looked at the Buddhist bead in his aunt's hand, she had already pulled it off and held it firmly in her hand.The security guard sitting next to him breathed a sigh of relief, and pressed his hands on his knees, clenched into fists.
Lu Ting: "You shouldn't go to work during the day, right?"
The security guard was the uncle who was on guard last night, "No, I was called."
Lu Ting: "Live very close?"
The security guard said, "It's one street away."
The housing prices in this neighborhood are not cheap, and it is definitely not something a security guard can afford to rent, let alone spend money to buy.Obviously, Uncle has other sources of income.
If so, why do you want to be a security guard?Simply want to experience life?Or just find something to do when you are bored.
Lu Ting suppressed his doubts, and it was the security guard's turn.
The security guard recounted what happened yesterday, feeling a little nervous, but Lu Ting felt that it was a little deliberate.Because his eyes were always calm, but his brows were slightly wrinkled.
"Next." The assistant glanced at the personnel records in the notebook, "The surname is Lu, right?"
Lu Ting nodded and began to narrate. Except for the first half of the content, the latter half of the rhetoric is exactly the same as that of the security guard.
The assistant closed the notebook and said to Cao Min, "Only Tie Jun in the hospital is left."
Cao Min stood up and said to everyone: "Thanks for your hard work, everyone."
Lu Ting found that this woman was quite calm, and she didn't even have the slightest fear after hearing so many ghost stories.She was really not afraid, or she really didn't believe it.
The people brought by Cao Min left the building with them in a mighty manner and headed for the hospital.
Manager Ma was not liked because of the concealed matter, so he was left in the company to deal with the aftermath.He gave each of those who had been questioned a 200 yuan shopping card as compensation.
Holding the card, Li Qian raised his hand to look at the time, "It's just time for lunch, let's go."
The two went to a fresh food supermarket not far away together. One of them bought a piece of sushi, swiped their card and sat down in the dining area of the supermarket.
Li Qian snorted and said, "The one surnamed Ma cheated me back then, now it's my turn to suffer."
"Who told you to be greedy for cheap things?" Lu Ting opened his mouth wide, stuffed the whole sushi in, and chewed with puffed cheeks.
Li Qian was about to open his mouth to defend himself, when he saw Tie Jun's supervisor and Manager Ma coming over with a boxed lunch.He raised his eyebrows and waved his hand.
Manager Ma got angry when he saw him. He was cheating people back then, but Li Qian also rented well, so nothing happened.
Now that the matter has been pulled out, I don't know how President Cao will deal with him.
Mr. Chen would run into Li Qian in the elevator almost every day, so he couldn't pretend he didn't see him, so he could only apologize to Manager Ma and walk away.Manager Ma stood there with the meal, feeling a little embarrassed, but in the end, taking care of both sides, he bit the bullet and followed.
Li Qian is very good at being a person. He offended someone one second, and apologized the next second.
After hearing him say a few soft words, Manager Ma felt much more at ease.
Mr. Chen, who was caught in the middle, heaved a sigh of relief. He saw Lu Ting familiarly, "Is he from your company?"
"The humerus of the company." Li Qian patted Lu Ting on the shoulder, "My lucky star."
Lu Ting nodded to Manager Ma, then greeted Mr. Chen, and asked, "How is Tie Jun?"
"You know Tie Jun?" Mr. Chen was puzzled.
Manager Ma had been in the meeting room just now, and he said with a strange air: "Mr. Lu and Tie Jun have shared weal and woe. He was there when there was a ghost last night."
Mr. Chen felt uncomfortable when he heard the word "ghost" now, "He's still in the hospital, he's fine, and he should be discharged in the afternoon."
"Is it convenient for me to go and see him?" Tie Jun yelled something before he fell into a coma. Everyone in the building knew about the "ghost followed home".Lu Ting found that everyone was trembling, looking around as they walked, as if they were following something.
Mr. Chen was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile, "I'll give you the address, you can go if you want."
The meal is over, and there is still an hour before work time.
Lu Ting was afraid that Tie Jun would be discharged from the hospital early, so he told Li Qian that he wanted to go and have a look first.Li Qian immediately took out his new car keys, "Let's go, I'll see you off, it's not far anyway."
The hospital was only two streets away from their work place, and within 10 minutes, the car was parked in the hospital's parking lot.
When Lu Ting found Tie Jun, he was sitting on the hospital bed in a daze.
His eyes were bloodshot, his hair was disheveled, and the hospital gown was hanging loosely on him, making him look decadent and desolate.
Lu Ting walked up to him and stood still. Tie Jun's eyes fell on the young man's chest. He stared straight at the young man for a long time, until his eyes were too dry and tears were secreted, so he blinked, "It's you."
"It's me." Lu Ting pulled the stool over and sat down, hooked another one with his feet, and pushed it to Li Qian.
"What are you doing here?" Tie Jun's lips moved just a few times before tearing and oozing blood. He didn't seem to notice, his lips parted, showing a little surprise, "You were also scared to death, and they sent you to the hospital?"
He rolled his eyes and looked at Li Qian: "What about you? Did you see a ghost too?"
"I don't have one." Li Qian quickly explained, fearing that it would be bad luck if he was a second late.
Lu Ting: "You went home yesterday and saw you again, right?"
Tie Jun's pupils trembled violently, and the pupils shrank to the size of a needle point. He supported the bed and shrank back quickly, pulling up the quilt to surround himself tightly.
Lu Ting was afraid that he would have a physical reaction again due to the fright of the memory, so he got up and comforted him: "It's daytime, it's okay. Besides, Li Qian and I have very strong yang energy, and a hundred ghosts will not invade."
Li Qian complained in his heart, he really knows how to tell nonsense, didn't he just met last night!
Tie Jun's brain is a little dull now, and he can't think so much.He stared at Lu Ting coldly with eyes of no focal length, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. You tell the matter, so we can find the source and solve the matter." Lu Ting's voice was as gentle as water, quickly calming Tie Jun's nervous heart.
The muscles under the palms relaxed, and Lu Ting continued: "In this way, you can return to your post and continue to work."
These words hit Tie Jun's heart, the current job is very good, and he doesn't want to give up.
Tie Jun stretched his neck out of the quilt, licked the blood off his lips, "Okay, I'll tell you all."
Lu Ting signaled Li Qian to help him pour a cup of hot water.
Holding the warm water cup and looking at the peaceful faces of the two people opposite, Tie Jun felt as if the suffocating air around him had dissipated.
He lowered his head, took a sip, and said slowly: "Actually, shortly after I got in the taxi last night, I started to feel that something was wrong. There was no one next to me, but I always felt that someone was sitting there, gently Breathing deeply. Once, twice, the sound of breathing is close to my ears, as if there are a pair of eyes staring at my face."
The reading light was not turned on in the taxi, and the back seat was plunged into darkness. As soon as Tie Jun thought of the atmosphere and environment at that time, he had difficulty breathing, and his hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.
Tie Jun calmed down slowly, he lowered his head, his voice became indistinct: "I was very scared at the time, so after getting out of the car, I ran all the way back. When I got home, I closed all the doors and windows, wrapped my body in a quilt, Squatting on the sofa in the living room."
"Then, my door rang."
Li Qian stepped forward and grabbed him, "Why, you didn't explain why you cheated me?"
Manager Ma's suit collar was pulled out of shape, and he staggered back, screaming, and raised his hands to try to break Li Qian's hand.
"What's going on?" The elevator door opened suddenly, and a woman stepped out of it.
The woman has tall eyebrows and big eyes, with a sharp face, and her gestures reveal the aura of a superior.She frowned and stared at Manager Ma, and then took advantage of the opportunity to look at Li Qian who came to ask for an explanation.
Manager Ma was defeated by the menacing eyes, he hesitated and said: "I have a personal issue with this gentleman, let's deal with it immediately."
The woman gave a faint "hmm" and was about to turn around when she heard Li Qian sneer and say, "Personal matter? You cheated me into renting for three years. Is this a personal matter? You must already know what happened last night. Manager Ma, aren't you afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night when you do such a wicked thing!"
"What's the matter?" As soon as the woman turned around, Manager Ma knew that things couldn't be hidden.
Li Qian let go of Manager Ma and looked the woman up and down, "What's your name?"
Woman: "Cao Min."
Li Qian: "Miss Cao, you must have a higher position than Manager Ma. I don't know if you have heard of the haunted building in the middle of the night."
"What?" Cao Min didn't know whether it was because he was stunned or because it was too unimaginable, so he showed a puzzled expression.
"Ask Manager Ma." Li Qian spoke very bluntly, and looked at Manager Ma meaningfully.
Manager Ma wiped off his sweat, walked up to Cao Min with a big belly, "Mr. Cao, don't believe what he said, nothing happened in the building."
Cao Min looked at him coldly, without saying a word.
Under the oppressive gaze, Manager Ma lowered his eyes guiltyly, "Something happened, but it's not a big deal..."
Cao Min turned around and left. Standing among the group of elites, the assistant hurriedly followed. Before the elevator door was completely closed, the assistant said to Manager Ma: "Mr. Cao asked you to find an empty office and clean up a conference room. In addition, put Call that gentleman together."
Manager Ma gave Li Qian a hard look, and he approached after the others took the elevator upstairs, pointed at Li Qian with dissatisfaction and said, "Do you mean it? Do you know who that Mr. Cao is? Mom is going to kill me!"
Li Qian patted his hand that was pointing to the tip of his nose away, guessing: "Is she the senior leader of your group?"
Manager Ma's fierce expression froze.
Li Qian: "She took this position at a young age. She must have a close relationship with the major shareholder of your group. Is it a daughter, a niece, or some other relative?"
"She is the only daughter of the boss of our group!" The more Manager Ma thought about it, the more angry he became. How could he be so unlucky today to meet Li Qian, the God of Plague!
"Oh." Li Qian nodded and reminded, "Should we go to the meeting?"
Manager Ma didn't dare to disobey Cao Min's order, and reluctantly took Li Qian upstairs together.
The entire upstairs floor was vacant, and he quickly took someone to wipe the abandoned tables and chairs left by the previous tenants.
The group of people in suits sat down in an orderly manner. As soon as Cao Min was seated, everyone looked at her. They were very respectful to this woman.
Cao Min sat at the top, crossed her fingers on the table, and looked up at the last person on the right, "Manager Ma, please tell me in detail."

It was midnight on the other side of the ocean, and after a long beep, the phone was finally connected.
Cao Rui was probably woken up, and said irritably, "What are you doing, calling so late."
"Why didn't you report the matter of digging up the bones?" Cao Min's cold voice made Cao Rui tremble and wake up completely.
Supporting his body with his arms, he raised his hand to turn on the bedside lamp, a little nervous.
I don't know when, he began to feel afraid of this younger sister.Many times, as soon as Cao Min lowered his face, Cao Rui would immediately have the illusion that he was talking to his father himself.
A man in his 30s, he still hesitated when he spoke, "I, what... well, I thought it was not a big deal, and I didn't encounter any trouble in the process of handling it, so I didn't say anything."
"You are afraid that grandpa will be unhappy." Cao Min sneered. Grandpa is over 90 years old, and the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease are good and bad.If he knew domestic affairs while he was sober, he would rather lose money than let the project continue.
Being punctured, Cao Rui murmured: "It's not like you don't know, Grandpa is superstitious... Anyway, you know."
"What about the haunted building, you know?"
"I really don't know about this." Cao Rui said anxiously, "You are my own sister, if I know, I can let you go?!"
He paused, and because of nervousness, he swallowed loudly, even Cao Min who was over the radio could hear it.She thought it was funny, knowing that she made her brother nervous, she softened her voice, "Brother, I believe in you."
Cao Rui's tensed shoulders slumped, "Is the haunting real or fake? It sounds a little mysterious to me."
"Of course it's fake." Cao Min rolled his eyes, "Have you received your higher education for nothing?"
Cao Rui: "Is that someone pretending to be? Wanting to deliberately damage our family's business?"
Cao Min pondered for a moment, then said, "I'll check first and then talk."
After hanging up the phone, she stood on the spot and thought carefully. Her brother can't lie, so the person who deliberately deceived him was Manager Ma who was in charge of the operation.
Cao Min walked straight into the office, stood in front of his seat, and stared at Manager Ma without blinking.
Manager Ma felt weak all over, took a sip of mineral water against the sharp eyes, trying to calm himself down.
The guillotine hanging from his neck still fell down.
Cao Min: "Why didn't you report what happened in the building?"
The woman's voice pierced Manager Ma's heart like an ice knife, scaring him into shortness of breath and unbalanced heartbeat, and he completely forgot how to explain it.
Li Qian watched this scene silently, wondering whether Cao Min was singing a double reed with Manager Ma, or really raising doubts.
Manager Ma sat stiffly for a few seconds, and stood up shaking his legs, "Mr. Cao, it was my fault for not reporting it. That's because I know that you don't believe in ghosts and gods. I'm afraid that if you say it, you will think that I am doing something to myself. make excuse."
Not to mention Cao Min, even after hearing what the director of Tie Jun's company said, he still had doubts about the haunting.
The 21st century is not a feudal society with a lack of spiritual world, and ghosts and gods will not work.
Cao Min planned to pursue Manager Ma's responsibility after the fact. Right now, she wanted to ask the "participant" in the building carefully to find out what the hell was going on, which could make people twitch with fright.
After receiving the order, Manager Ma immediately went to each floor to look for the person who hit the ghost.
Li Qian, as half of the parties involved, was the first to accept the questioning.
"After I signed the contract, I found a professional cleaning company to clean, but was rejected. After the four companies heard about the company's address, they hung up on me without saying a word."
Li Qian looked at the person across from him seriously, and frowned slightly, "What do you mean? I don't know, but from the first day I stepped in, I felt eerie."
Sitting on the sidelines, Cao Min wanted to sneer, wondering if this could be used as proof that there is a soul body in the building?Obviously not.
She motioned for the assistant to continue.
Assistant: "Then Mr. Li, have you ever seen a so-called ghost?"
Li Qian: "No."
The assistant nodded and gestured for him to drink some water.
Cao Min sat by the window, looking at another office building not far away.Even during working hours, there are many people coming in and out.As for the building under her feet, just thinking about the depression she saw when she went upstairs just now gave her a headache.
Whether in terms of location or supporting properties, their office building is much better than the one opposite.She must not let this project become a stain on the family business.This is not just as simple as a loss, but also affects the image of the entire group.
What kind of supernatural event must be caused by the other family.
She must find out the person behind it and make him bear due legal responsibility.
Cao Min: "Just them?"
The subordinate said: "There is another person from Li's head office. He went to the bathroom and will come soon."
Cao Min nodded, and said to his assistant, "Next."
Li Qian got up from the stool and walked in front of Cao Min.
This woman is like a sharp knife, stubborn and cold. The ridicule and sneer in the other party's eyes when he spoke just now made him feel uncomfortable.
"Miss Cao doesn't believe in ghosts?"
"My grandmother is from the United States, and I myself was born and raised in the United States." Cao Min showed a habitual social smile, "Mr. Li, if I have to believe, then I should believe in God."
"Belief in God and acknowledging the existence of ghosts and gods are not in conflict." Li Qian sneered in his heart. The complexity and variety of the world has never been understood by anyone.Even physicists say that there may be multiple spaces in the universe.
Some people are still too young, superficial, and narrow-minded.
"Satan, who is feared by the believers, is also punished by God to leave heaven." Cao Min squinted at Li Qian's face of disapproval, "It can be seen that God's energy is greater than Satan. In my opinion, belief The strong are fine, there is no need to be afraid of the weak. Since I am not afraid, it is not so important whether I admit his existence."
Li Qian: "..." Unexpectedly, he couldn't refute.
Cao Min: "Mr. Li, after receiving a good education, why would you believe in these non-existent things? Don't you find it ridiculous?"
Li Qian suddenly thought of a sentence: The ignorant are fearless.
Some concepts are deeply rooted, Li Qian didn't want to continue to argue, "It's ridiculous, but I just believe it."
Sensing the other party's indifference, Cao Min shrugged, and his indifferent eyes fell on the girl who was talking.
She is a small Internet celebrity of a live broadcast company, and the company is on the second floor.
After listening to the assistant's question, the internet celebrity pursed her lower lip, slapped her slender and thick false eyelashes twice, and said softly: "I have something to do during the day, so I asked for leave, so I can only choose to come to the company for live broadcast at night. My live broadcast room is The one with its back facing the door. I was playing a game when I suddenly heard someone singing in the earphones. The tune was very similar to the lullaby I heard when I was a child, but the lyrics were different..."
The more Cao Min listened, the more she wanted to laugh, but out of courtesy, she held back.
After the Internet celebrity finished speaking, it was the next person's turn, an intern wearing glasses.The boy pushed down his glasses, he had always been skeptical about haunting.
"I caught a cold that day, and my work efficiency was low, so I had to stay on duty. Because I heard that it was haunted, I didn't dare to stay, so I planned to leave before seven o'clock. But then the medicine took effect, and I actually fell asleep. When I woke up, it was already At 08:30, the building was pitch black after the sun went down. I was a little scared, so I trotted into the elevator. I swear, I really didn’t press the floor button, but every time I got to the floor, the elevator would open the door. I ventured to look around, but there was no one outside."
The assistant nodded after the name. These remarks are obviously not as scary as Internet celebrities, and it is more likely that someone will play a prank.
He turned the notebook backwards and said, "Next."
Soon, Lu Ting finally arrived late.
Li Qian hurriedly winked at him: How did you get there?
Lu Ting pointed to his stomach: stomach hurts.
"I didn't hear the sound, but I saw it." The fifth person was a middle-aged woman, an aunt from the cleaning department.
She was holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, and she kept twisting the beads in her right hand with her left hand when she spoke, "I forgot my key in the cabinet that day, so I had to turn it back. When I first arrived at the workshop, I heard someone walking towards me. I was scared and didn't dare to turn my head, but I heard it, I really heard the door of the workshop creak and open!"
Auntie Cleaning grabbed the paper cup on the table and drained the water.
She fiddled with the prayer beads twice quickly, her lips trembling, "I didn't dare to move, I kept my back turned, and then, I felt someone approaching me, and I closed my eyes in fright."
Listening to this paragraph, it is more immersive and terrifying than the previous few people.
The assistant held the pen tightly, "And then?"
Auntie licked her dry lips, and someone next to her immediately brought a new glass of water to her.
"I felt cold on her body, and her face was facing mine. She seemed to be observing my face, from forehead to chin, every place for a long time. I don't know how long it took, wait for me When I came back to my senses, she was gone, and the door of the workshop was also tightly closed, as if it had never been opened."
The assistant stopped writing: "Have you ever thought that those might be your hallucinations?"
"It can't be an illusion. There are really ghosts. I have encountered them before. I can't be wrong."
Lu Ting looked at the Buddhist bead in his aunt's hand, she had already pulled it off and held it firmly in her hand.The security guard sitting next to him breathed a sigh of relief, and pressed his hands on his knees, clenched into fists.
Lu Ting: "You shouldn't go to work during the day, right?"
The security guard was the uncle who was on guard last night, "No, I was called."
Lu Ting: "Live very close?"
The security guard said, "It's one street away."
The housing prices in this neighborhood are not cheap, and it is definitely not something a security guard can afford to rent, let alone spend money to buy.Obviously, Uncle has other sources of income.
If so, why do you want to be a security guard?Simply want to experience life?Or just find something to do when you are bored.
Lu Ting suppressed his doubts, and it was the security guard's turn.
The security guard recounted what happened yesterday, feeling a little nervous, but Lu Ting felt that it was a little deliberate.Because his eyes were always calm, but his brows were slightly wrinkled.
"Next." The assistant glanced at the personnel records in the notebook, "The surname is Lu, right?"
Lu Ting nodded and began to narrate. Except for the first half of the content, the latter half of the rhetoric is exactly the same as that of the security guard.
The assistant closed the notebook and said to Cao Min, "Only Tie Jun in the hospital is left."
Cao Min stood up and said to everyone: "Thanks for your hard work, everyone."
Lu Ting found that this woman was quite calm, and she didn't even have the slightest fear after hearing so many ghost stories.She was really not afraid, or she really didn't believe it.
The people brought by Cao Min left the building with them in a mighty manner and headed for the hospital.
Manager Ma was not liked because of the concealed matter, so he was left in the company to deal with the aftermath.He gave each of those who had been questioned a 200 yuan shopping card as compensation.
Holding the card, Li Qian raised his hand to look at the time, "It's just time for lunch, let's go."
The two went to a fresh food supermarket not far away together. One of them bought a piece of sushi, swiped their card and sat down in the dining area of the supermarket.
Li Qian snorted and said, "The one surnamed Ma cheated me back then, now it's my turn to suffer."
"Who told you to be greedy for cheap things?" Lu Ting opened his mouth wide, stuffed the whole sushi in, and chewed with puffed cheeks.
Li Qian was about to open his mouth to defend himself, when he saw Tie Jun's supervisor and Manager Ma coming over with a boxed lunch.He raised his eyebrows and waved his hand.
Manager Ma got angry when he saw him. He was cheating people back then, but Li Qian also rented well, so nothing happened.
Now that the matter has been pulled out, I don't know how President Cao will deal with him.
Mr. Chen would run into Li Qian in the elevator almost every day, so he couldn't pretend he didn't see him, so he could only apologize to Manager Ma and walk away.Manager Ma stood there with the meal, feeling a little embarrassed, but in the end, taking care of both sides, he bit the bullet and followed.
Li Qian is very good at being a person. He offended someone one second, and apologized the next second.
After hearing him say a few soft words, Manager Ma felt much more at ease.
Mr. Chen, who was caught in the middle, heaved a sigh of relief. He saw Lu Ting familiarly, "Is he from your company?"
"The humerus of the company." Li Qian patted Lu Ting on the shoulder, "My lucky star."
Lu Ting nodded to Manager Ma, then greeted Mr. Chen, and asked, "How is Tie Jun?"
"You know Tie Jun?" Mr. Chen was puzzled.
Manager Ma had been in the meeting room just now, and he said with a strange air: "Mr. Lu and Tie Jun have shared weal and woe. He was there when there was a ghost last night."
Mr. Chen felt uncomfortable when he heard the word "ghost" now, "He's still in the hospital, he's fine, and he should be discharged in the afternoon."
"Is it convenient for me to go and see him?" Tie Jun yelled something before he fell into a coma. Everyone in the building knew about the "ghost followed home".Lu Ting found that everyone was trembling, looking around as they walked, as if they were following something.
Mr. Chen was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile, "I'll give you the address, you can go if you want."
The meal is over, and there is still an hour before work time.
Lu Ting was afraid that Tie Jun would be discharged from the hospital early, so he told Li Qian that he wanted to go and have a look first.Li Qian immediately took out his new car keys, "Let's go, I'll see you off, it's not far anyway."
The hospital was only two streets away from their work place, and within 10 minutes, the car was parked in the hospital's parking lot.
When Lu Ting found Tie Jun, he was sitting on the hospital bed in a daze.
His eyes were bloodshot, his hair was disheveled, and the hospital gown was hanging loosely on him, making him look decadent and desolate.
Lu Ting walked up to him and stood still. Tie Jun's eyes fell on the young man's chest. He stared straight at the young man for a long time, until his eyes were too dry and tears were secreted, so he blinked, "It's you."
"It's me." Lu Ting pulled the stool over and sat down, hooked another one with his feet, and pushed it to Li Qian.
"What are you doing here?" Tie Jun's lips moved just a few times before tearing and oozing blood. He didn't seem to notice, his lips parted, showing a little surprise, "You were also scared to death, and they sent you to the hospital?"
He rolled his eyes and looked at Li Qian: "What about you? Did you see a ghost too?"
"I don't have one." Li Qian quickly explained, fearing that it would be bad luck if he was a second late.
Lu Ting: "You went home yesterday and saw you again, right?"
Tie Jun's pupils trembled violently, and the pupils shrank to the size of a needle point. He supported the bed and shrank back quickly, pulling up the quilt to surround himself tightly.
Lu Ting was afraid that he would have a physical reaction again due to the fright of the memory, so he got up and comforted him: "It's daytime, it's okay. Besides, Li Qian and I have very strong yang energy, and a hundred ghosts will not invade."
Li Qian complained in his heart, he really knows how to tell nonsense, didn't he just met last night!
Tie Jun's brain is a little dull now, and he can't think so much.He stared at Lu Ting coldly with eyes of no focal length, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. You tell the matter, so we can find the source and solve the matter." Lu Ting's voice was as gentle as water, quickly calming Tie Jun's nervous heart.
The muscles under the palms relaxed, and Lu Ting continued: "In this way, you can return to your post and continue to work."
These words hit Tie Jun's heart, the current job is very good, and he doesn't want to give up.
Tie Jun stretched his neck out of the quilt, licked the blood off his lips, "Okay, I'll tell you all."
Lu Ting signaled Li Qian to help him pour a cup of hot water.
Holding the warm water cup and looking at the peaceful faces of the two people opposite, Tie Jun felt as if the suffocating air around him had dissipated.
He lowered his head, took a sip, and said slowly: "Actually, shortly after I got in the taxi last night, I started to feel that something was wrong. There was no one next to me, but I always felt that someone was sitting there, gently Breathing deeply. Once, twice, the sound of breathing is close to my ears, as if there are a pair of eyes staring at my face."
The reading light was not turned on in the taxi, and the back seat was plunged into darkness. As soon as Tie Jun thought of the atmosphere and environment at that time, he had difficulty breathing, and his hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.
Tie Jun calmed down slowly, he lowered his head, his voice became indistinct: "I was very scared at the time, so after getting out of the car, I ran all the way back. When I got home, I closed all the doors and windows, wrapped my body in a quilt, Squatting on the sofa in the living room."
"Then, my door rang."
