Do not lie to me

Shang Xuechen got back into the car, but didn't drive away immediately.He lay on the steering wheel worriedly and looked upstairs. When Qi Liang just opened the door, he clearly saw the mess in the room.Shang Xuechen was not sure if Shen Ao would attack Qi Liang after he entered the house again.He wanted to wait here and see what happened.

After a while, I saw someone coming out of the building in front of me.Shang Xuechen straightened up to look, only to see that the person who came out was Shen Ao.He breathed a sigh of relief first, Shen Ao came out, indicating that Qi Liang should have no major problems.

Shen Ao just turned around and saw Shang Xuechen sitting in the car.Shang Xuechen stared back at Shen Ao without showing any weakness in the car, seeing that Shen Ao just looked at him expressionlessly, Shang Xuechen got out of the car after thinking about it.

He walked in front of Shen Ao, only to realize that Shen Ao's condition was no better than Qi Liang's, with disheveled hair, unshaven beard, and heavy dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn't slept for several days.Shang Xuechen looked at him, and said very directly, "Leave Qi Liang alone."

Shen Ao raised his eyelids to look at him, Shang Xuechen clenched his fists subconsciously, he knew that Shen Ao was not an ordinary person, nor was he in background, nor in spirit.Shen Ao just looked at him coldly, didn't attack him, and simply asked him, "Do you want to take him away?"

Shang Xuechen hesitated, he didn't know if Ji Shuping would agree, the last time at the hotel by the sea, when Ji Shuping knew that he wanted to take Qi Liang away, Ji Shuping got very angry with him.

"I want him to start over and have the right direction in life." Shang Xuechen's words were a little ambiguous, he was not sure about Ji Shuping's thoughts yet, but he didn't want Shen Ao Qiliang to take advantage of it.

"The right direction in life?"

Shang Xuechen frowned, feeling that Shen Ao didn't seem to be able to grasp the point of the words.

"How is it right? Is it wrong or bad to be with me?"

After hearing this, Shang Xuechen felt that Shen Ao seemed to be asking himself, and also seemed to be talking to himself, "You did that to him back then..." Before he finished speaking, Shen Ao turned around and left up.Shang Xuechen looked at Shen Ao's back turning away with some confusion, thinking that he was really mentally abnormal.Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing at myself, "What qualifications do you have to say about others, since I am also a person with mental problems."

Shen Ao was walking on the road in the neighborhood in a daze, occasionally being bumped into the shoulder by someone, but he didn't punch them violently like usual, and no one came forward to argue with him, because his appearance was really not normal.He walked out unsteadily, the road in front of him gradually became unclear, and he kept repeating in his mouth, "So it was wrong for you to be with me. But it is clear that you said bad love is worth having. Obviously you said so."

Shang Xuechen looked up at Shen Ao who had gone away, turned around and wanted to go upstairs to see Qi Liang, he wanted to know if Qi Liang was okay.Just as he lifted his foot, he stopped, turned around and walked to his car.Because he felt that the most urgent thing to do was to find Ji Shuping.He had to tell Ji Shuping what he remembered, and he had to discuss with Ji Shuping how to arrange Qi Liang.

Discuss with him carefully, and if you make it clear, he shouldn't be jealous, right?Shang Xuechen sat in the car and thought, "Hey, it doesn't matter so much, go to him first and see what he can do." Shang Xuechen impatiently started the car, turned the steering wheel and drove out This district.

Ji Shuping was sitting at his desk looking at the guest list for tonight's reception, knowing who he should deal with and making preparations early.It's just that I felt a headache when I saw the first two names, "There is no fuel-efficient lamp."

He propped his forehead, looked at the guest list in his hand again, felt a little strange, entered the password to log in to the computer, found the folder that was hidden deep, compared it with the guest list in his hand, frowned, "Madam Shao really has ulterior motives."

This guest list is roughly the same as the list stolen from Zhou Yuan, but there are still some discrepancies.Ji Shuping raised his head and nodded his temple, "Could it be that they didn't discuss it well? Zhou Yuan has reservations about Mrs. Shao?"

Thinking too much is easy to get a headache, Ji Shuping casually threw away the list of guests and banquets in his hand, lay down in the boss chair and swayed a few times, then suddenly remembered what Shang Xuechen asked him this morning, why Wenfu didn't make a phone call What about calling to talk about money?

The more Ji Shuping thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, took out his mobile phone and dialed, "Is Wen Fu still hiding in Xiping Town?"

"Don't you know he's dead? The news has already come out this morning."

"Dead? How did he die?"

"The police said it was a deliberate murder. The biggest suspect at present is his wife, who is currently at large."

Ji Shuping pointed at the table with his index finger and felt that Wen Fu's death was too sudden. Why did Wen Fu die just after they went to Xiping Town to find someone?

"Find a way to show me a record of the scene." Ji Shuping hung up the phone and pressed the landline directly, "Coffee."

After a while, someone rushed in with coffee.Ji Shuping narrowed his eyes, put his hands on the bridge of his nose and looked at the person who brought in the coffee, "Where's Zhou Yuanren?"

Ji Shuping stared at the employee who brought in the coffee, and his spine felt chills, "It may be at the front desk, or it may have gone downstairs to deliver the documents."

"Where is it?!" Ji Shuping's tone became severe.

The person who brought the coffee in shook his body in fright, "Well, I don't know where Sister Yuan is, she was still there just now, but she disappeared in a blink of an eye, and I didn't say hello to anyone. If she comes back, I will Let her come to you?"

"No need." Ji Shuping waved his hand, "Go out first. Don't mention that I asked her."

"Okay, manager."

Ji Shuping was the only one left in the office again, so he dialed the landline, "Is it the HR department? Send a copy of the latest work and attendance records to my mailbox." He always felt that Zhou Yuan's death was inseparable from Wen Fu's.

Zhou Yuan is hiding in the garbage collection area of ​​the underground parking lot. There is no monitoring here, and basically no one will come except for the cleaners.She poked her head around and looked around, and she looked away after making sure that there was no one else. She leaned against the wall with her arms crossed and asked the person in front of her, "Why did you come to see me?"

The man in black who stood expressionlessly looked at her, "Madam wants me to ask you for a list so that she can confirm that everyone is here for tonight."

Zhou Yuan squinted her lips and looked at the person in front of her, "Reassure Madam. Everyone on the list for tonight is here."

The man in black came forward and put his arm against her throat, pressing him firmly against the wall, "Madam said that she would check the list with her own eyes to make sure that there are no omissions. Madam thinks that the number of people you verbally reported to her is too small."

Zhou Yuan raised her head, her throat was pressed, she had difficulty breathing, and she rubbed the back of her head against the wall, "If the list is still in my hand, I will definitely give it to Madam."

"You don't have the list anymore?" The man in black pressed Zhou Yuan's throat even harder, "You'd better not play tricks!"

"Why am I lying to you? The company was stolen two days ago, and my drawer was also pried open. If you don't believe me, ask any security guard or cleaning lady."

"Really?" The man in black relaxed a little, thought for a while but didn't let go of his arms, "You have too many tricks. You know that Madam dare not send people to Ji Shuping's company, so you hide all the documents In Ji Shuping's company."

"The police station just caught the person today, and the missing person is still tracking. If you don't believe me, the police should believe it!"

The man in black let go of his hand suspiciously, Zhou Yuan clutched her neck and turned to support the wall and coughed vigorously.A car drove to the underground parking lot. Zhou Yuan coughed and looked outside. It was Shang Xuechen who drove over.

Seeing Shang Xuechen, Zhou Yuan continued to pretend to be coughing and peeked at the man in black behind him, then cocked her mouth and looked at the car outside to find a parking space and park it, but no one got out of the car.Zhou Yuan turned around with a smile and said, "I just remembered that I missed two of the guests I reported to Madam. Go back and tell Madam."

The man in black gave her a cold look, and heard that Zhou Yuan had reported two political celebrities.

"Okay, I've told you everything. Go and tell Madam quickly, otherwise Madam will invite these two distinguished guests late."

The man in black didn't want to get entangled with her anymore, and was about to leave. When he rubbed shoulders with Zhou Yuan, he heard her say, "Then I wish the madam a successful reception tonight. By the way, tell the madam, I will I will sneak over to discuss something with her."

Shang Xuechen arrived at the underground parking lot downstairs of Ji Shuping's company. After parking the car, he was sitting in the car scratching his head and trying to think of a way. How could he call Ji Shuping to come down to the parking lot?He couldn't go up to find someone blatantly, but he lost his mobile phone, so he couldn't call or send him a text message to let him know that he was here.

He couldn't think of a reasonable solution, so he patted the steering wheel in frustration and suddenly came up with an idea, "I can find Uncle Kang first. Let him call Ji Shuping for me." He thought that even if Uncle Kang didn't like him very much , but Uncle Kang would never dare to hide anything from Ji Shuping.

Having made up his mind, Shang Xuechen craned his neck to see where Uncle Kang's car was parked.It's just that there are too many cars in the underground parking lot, and he really can't see them in the car, so he plans to get out of the car and look for them carefully.As soon as he opened the car door, he saw a figure flash by.

Shang Xuechen bent down and hid behind the car door, raised his head to see who was sneaking around, and when he looked up, he saw the man in black walking cautiously against the wall.

"It's him?" Shang Xuechen had met him a few times, and thought he was weird, but he didn't know who he was.He returned to the car and stared at the man, and saw the man in black get into the car.Shang Xuechen clenched his lips, thinking about whether he should discuss with Ji Shuping later on how he remembered what happened back then.Now that he finally ran into this man in black again, he didn't want to miss it.Shang Xuechen clenched his lower lip, started the car, and followed the car of the man in black carefully.

Zhou Yuan came out from behind the wall with a smile, and looked at the cars driving out of the parking lot one after the other, "Don't think about it for any of you!"

Shang Xuechen followed people all the way in the car. The person he was following was driving very fast, but he didn't notice that someone was following behind and wanted to get rid of him.Shang Xuechen followed behind and saw that he was cutting left and right and changing lanes non-stop, and felt that there was a problem.

"Where is he going in such a hurry?" Shang Xuechen clenched the steering wheel for fear of losing someone, "Why did he come out of the underground parking lot of Ji Shuping's company?" Shang Xuechen followed, this question was always on his mind Turn around.First of all, he definitely didn't come to look for Ji Shuping.Thinking of this, Shang Xuechen nodded, and Xu Xueshi said that he was not his own, so it should not have been sent by Xu Xueshi.

"Then who did he go to Ji Shuping's company?" Shang Xuechen couldn't help recalling the scene when he first saw this person. It was in Yao Caier's lounge. What came out showed that he kidnapped Yao Caier.At that time, he mistakenly thought that it was someone sent by Xu Xueshi. If it wasn't Xu Xueshi, who would it be?

The second time I met him was at the restaurant where Shao Ji invited him to dinner.Shang Xuechen said to himself with some doubts, "Could it be someone from the Shao family? Someone under Shao Ji?" Thinking of this, he immediately denied it, "No, no. When Yao Caier received the endorsement, she and Shao Ji It's been a long time since I returned to China, so it shouldn't belong to him. Whose person is that?"

Shang Xuechen couldn't figure it out no matter what he thought, so he could only focus on following the person in front of him, then turned on the turn signal when turning, then looked back at the rearview mirror of the car, and saw the cafe on the street. Xuechen suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "How did he get into Yao Caier's lounge?"

Shang Xuechen remembered that Yao Caier was still complaining about the bitterness of the coffee before she came on stage, Zhou Yuan stepped forward to comfort her, and Yao Caier became inexplicably excited after she came on stage.At that time, it seemed that Zhou Yuan gave her a piece of chocolate.

"Chocolate? The chocolate cake in the coffee shop? It was Zhou Yuan who made Yao Caier take drugs." Shang Xuechen glanced at the car in front of him, "He was also brought into the backstage lounge by Zhou Yuan?!"

The drugs were all leaked from the activities held by Ji Shuping Company, and the operator of that cafe was Chen Fang.Zhou Yuan is Chen Fang's daughter and Wen Ting's sister.Zhou Yuan planned all this?Shang Xuechen figured out all the joints in good time.It's just that he still doesn't understand, what does this have to do with Mrs. Shao's restaurant?

Before he could figure it out, the car in front had already turned a corner.Shang Xuechen stepped on the brakes, stopped on the side of the road and looked up at the majestic building in front of him, "Hotel?" He didn't expect that the man in black was driving in a hurry just to get to the hotel?

Shang Xuechen was brought back to his senses by the passing car with its horn on the road, he bit his lip, stepped on the accelerator and drove into the hotel.He followed the man in black all the way into the hotel, walked through the lobby, and stopped in front of the elevator.In order to prevent him from recognizing himself, you can't follow him into the elevator.When the elevator went up, Shang Xuechen stood in front of the elevator he had just entered and watched the elevator stop at the 24th floor.

"Oh, hello, I would like to ask." Shang Xuechen turned back to the lobby and grabbed a waiter casually and asked, "Is the 24th floor of the hotel a restaurant or a room?"

"It's the banquet hall, which was booked by the Shao family for a reception."

"The Shao family?" Shang Xuechen let go of the waiter's hand.

"Is there anything else you need sir?"

"No more." Shang Xuechen waved his hand, and the waiter on the tray walked away, "By the way, it was said that the Shao family held a banquet tonight to officially introduce Shao Ji to everyone. But what is he doing here? Is it bad for Ji Shuping or bad for Shao Ji?" Shang Xuechen thought for a while, and felt that it was more likely to be bad for Ji Shuping, after all, many things pointed to Ji Shuping clearly before.

Standing in the lobby, Shang Xuechen looked left and right, found the vending machine in the corner next to the elevator, walked over to buy a can of Coke with coins.There just happened to be a cleaning person pushing a cart down from the elevator.Shang Xuechen took a glance and waited for the cart to pass by him, then threw the wallet in his hand into the cleaning cart.

The cleaning aunt pushed the cart into the staff passage, and heard someone shouting from behind, "Wait a minute, wait a minute!" The cleaning aunt stopped and looked back. Shang Xuechen bent down and stopped in the Before pushing the cart, "I just delivered the laundry, and the wallet fell inside."

"But I have hotel towels inside. I don't have the guest's clothes."

"Ah?" Shang Xuechen twitched the corner of his mouth. He didn't expect to miscalculate in such a place. He raised his head to look around, and stuffed the money into the pocket of the cleaning lady. "It may be accidentally wrapped in a towel. Auntie , you are going to the laundry room anyway, why don't you take me to look for it together. If the wallet can be found, I will tip you more. "

Auntie looked at her stuffed pockets and looked around, "Then you have to come out quickly after you go in. If someone sees me, I will be punished."

Shang Xuechen breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I know, I will be careful. I will give you more tips when I get my wallet back."

Ji Shuping looked at the attendance records in the email and rubbed his temples. Zhou Yuan clocked in every day, so did she also prepare an alibi in advance?Ji Shuping picked up the coffee in hand and drank it in one gulp, raised his hand and dialed the landline again, "Coffee."

After a while, Zhou Yuan brought coffee in with a smile, went to the desk to put it down, and took Ji Shuping's empty coffee cup with her.

Ji Shuping looked at her and asked, "Where did you go just now?"

"Just now? I've been here all the time." Zhou Yuan replied with a smile.

"You didn't send my last cup of coffee. The person who sent it said you were not there. You are a secretary, and I didn't tell you, but you were not at your post, so where did you go?"

"Oh, I went to the front desk to see how the lost property registry is going."

"Did you lose something too?" Ji Shuping picked up the coffee, blew on it, and took a sip.

Zhou Yuan was still smiling, "I lost a little thing."

"Small things?" Ji Shuping raised his eyelids to look at her, "It shouldn't be such a small thing. I heard that the thieves stole valuable things from colleagues. The things you lost are probably quite valuable."

"Ah, it's just a ring. It was left in a drawer in the office before. That's why I rushed to the front desk to inquire about the lost property."

"Then you just said something small again."

"Hey, the price is not low, but isn't it just a small thing in front of you?"

Ji Shuping smiled, "I didn't realize you were so good at talking before. You are also diligent in your work. These days are so chaotic, and you came to the company early."

"I lost my rings, so I can't lose the perfect attendance award."

Ji Shuping lowered his head, took a sip of his coffee, and waved to Zhou Yuan, "Notify Uncle Kang to prepare the car, I have to go to the reception later." Zhou Yuan nodded with a smile and went out.When the door was closed, Ji Shuping put the coffee cup on the table with a lot of strength, and the bottom of the cup hit the table with a loud sound.Ji Shuping narrowed his eyes and looked at the door of the office, "It's amazing, it doesn't leak water."

"Be careful!" The person yelling in front of the restaurant nervously watched the waiter move the exquisite tableware one after another, then turned around and said to the person who was sitting leisurely drinking tea beside him, "Ma'am, it's almost done. "

"En." Mrs. Shao nodded and continued to drink tea, "Go and check the tableware first. Although the reception is held in the hotel or not in the Shao's mansion and my restaurant, the tableware in my restaurant is from the hotel. It’s incomparable. You remember how many sets you have moved, and you can’t bring them back without any omissions.”

"Yes, ma'am."

After finishing her tea, Mrs. Shao got up and straightened her clothes, "I should have gone to the hotel to look at it sooner." As she spoke, she walked out of the restaurant and stopped when she passed the welcome counter at the door.

The waiter standing at the door saw Mrs. Shao stop, and asked nervously, "What's your order?"

"Did someone come in to ask the young master to move the car on the day the young master was treating guests to dinner?"

"No, ma'am."

"No?" Madam Shao frowned.

"Ma'am." The assistant hurriedly ran to her, "It's time to go."

Mrs. Shao sighed, "Then let's go first. We'll talk about it after tonight."
