Chapter 527: Chapter 525: Did Two People Secretly Collaborate Together?
Xu Zhenzhen heard Xia Wenqing’s words and blinked, realizing there was still time, she could go and discuss the matter with Lu Zhaozhao.
The thought of discussing it with someone else immediately relaxed her.
Soon, she leaned against Xia Wenqing’s chest and fell asleep without realizing it, she had been really exhausted today.
Xia Wenqing, feeling the stillness in his arms, realized she had fallen asleep. He gently brushed her hair behind her ear and affectionately kissed her cheek before lying back down.
Inhaling the familiar and comforting scent, he too fell asleep alongside Xu Zhenzhen.
...
When Lu Zhaozhao saw Xia Wenqing again, it was two days later.
Luckily, Xu Zhenzhen had messaged her after waking up and briefly explained the situation, which helped Lu Zhaozhao to wait patiently for two days.
However, when Xia Wenqing appeared, she couldn’t help but meticulously check him over.
Since recognizing Lu Zhaozhao, Xia Wenqing had never been cared for so seriously by his younger sister.
Previously, when Xia Wenmo was ill, Lu Zhaozhao had constantly hovered around him, and he, being the second brother, admittedly felt jealous.
He didn’t expect that now he was the one being closely watched, and he felt oddly elated for a moment.
But remembering that he had been manipulated by Hao Jiayi, Xia Wenqing felt somewhat frustrated.
"Zhaozhao, do you think your second brother is useless?" Xia Wenqing’s mood dropped.
He had never faced such a loss in many years in the legal field.
Now, to almost be defeated by a woman, he certainly felt embarrassed.
Especially on Song Group’s turf.
Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes fixed on Xia Wenqing as she sighed helplessly, "Second brother, don’t overthink it. As long as you’re fine, that’s what matters most."
Her concern for Xia Wenqing stemmed from the seemingly unfortunate end of the Xia Family in her last life.
Lu Zhaozhao worried history might repeat itself.
Last life, the Xia Family was abroad, and she didn’t know the specifics, but now that they were all in the country, the thought of something happening again was hard for her to accept.
Xia Wenqing clearly noticed the change in Lu Zhaozhao’s mood, raised his hand to ruffle her head, and said, "Don’t worry, I was unguarded before, that’s why I was tricked. It won’t happen again."
Lu Zhaozhao nodded, "Uh-huh, I believe in you, second brother."
She nodded toward Song Sinian beside her and then turned back to Xia Wenqing, "Now, you guys talk, Zhenzhen and I have other things to discuss."
Lu Zhaozhao winked playfully at them and then left the CEO’s office with Xu Zhenzhen.
As soon as they stepped out of the CEO’s office, their expressions turned serious.
Hao Jiayi had been taken to the police station for investigation because of what she did to Xia Wenqing; however, since they couldn’t trace the drugs found on her and the drugs in Xia Wenqing’s system had been metabolized, there was no evidence to incriminate Hao Jiayi.
After being held by the police for 48 hours, she was released.
The two of them certainly wouldn’t let Hao Jiayi easily return to Song Group.
"Once I see that bitch Hao Jiayi, I’ll knock her jaw off first, then drag her to the third-floor bathroom. I’ve already scouted the place!"
Xu Zhenzhen’s eyes sparkled as she shared her plans with Lu Zhaozhao.
She had thought that after calling the police yesterday, Hao Jiayi would be locked up for a few days.
Who knew she would be investigated for 48 hours and then nothing happened.
Xu Zhenzhen was really furious.
This trash didn’t even receive any punishment!
Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows slightly raised, "This trash really needs a good lesson, but before we hit her, we need to see if there are others around her watching."
Previously, Xu Zhenzhen had mentioned something odd about Hao Jiayi making a move against Xia Wenqing.
She also suspected that Hao Jiayi’s maneuvers had Feng Jiyue’s handwriting on them.
But how could letting Hao Jiayi assault Xia Wenqing benefit Feng Jiyue?
Neither Lu Zhaozhao nor Xu Zhenzhen understood.
Xu Zhenzhen pouted, "Even if there are people around Hao Jiayi, they can’t possibly be watching her inside the company too, right?"
Lu Zhaozhao shrugged noncommittally, "Aren’t you curious why, after coming back from the police station, she took the initiative to transfer from her current position?"
She always felt that Hao Jiayi’s actions after returning weren’t arbitrary.
Xu Zhenzhen squinted in confusion, "Isn’t it because she felt that after ruining Second Brother, she couldn’t stand in the Legal Department, so she transferred?"
Hao Jiayi was not easily placed in the Song Group by the Feng family, she definitely wouldn’t leave easily.
Her moving to another department now is the optimal solution.
Lu Zhaozhao shook her little head, "I don’t think so, there must be a problem on her side."
Xu Zhenzhen thought until her head hurt, "Whatever her purpose, let’s beat her up first!"
Saying that, she grabbed Lu Zhaozhao’s hand and headed to Hao Jiayi’s new department.
But to their surprise, when they arrived at the marketing department, they didn’t see Hao Jiayi at all.
Xu Zhenzhen’s brows instantly knotted, "Did Hao Jiayi detect something beforehand and run away earlier?"
Otherwise, why did she disappear just when they arrived and not earlier or later?
Lu Zhaozhao, seeing Xu Zhenzhen’s vengeful expression, couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, "Don’t worry, as long as she hasn’t left the Song Group, it will still be easy to find her."
Xu Zhenzhen pouted, though reluctantly, she nodded.
The two followed the path back, intending to go straight to the office.
But it seemed like Lu Zhaozhao suddenly remembered something — if she wasn’t mistaken... Xiao Mo should be in the sales department.
Since they were already here, they might as well take this opportunity to probe Xiao Mo’s situation.
With this thought, Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Xu Zhenzhen beside her and whispered, "How about we pay a visit to Xiao Mo now?"
Xu Zhenzhen didn’t oppose and nodded her head, following Lu Zhaozhao’s steps.
However, what they hadn’t expected was, just as they reached Xiao Mo’s office, they saw the previously unfindable Hao Jiayi.
This caused both of their pupils to quiver almost at the same time.
Could it be that Hao Jiayi and Xiao Mo were secretly collaborating?
Just as Xu Zhenzhen was about to investigate further, she was pulled back by Lu Zhaozhao.
Because right under their eyes, they saw the woman standing in Xiao’s office beginning to take off her clothes...
"Good lord, these two must be having an affair!" Xu Zhenzhen’s eyes widened, almost wishing she could switch to a higher magnification lens right there.
