C102 Don't Blame Me for Being Rude(1)
When she thought about the coincidental meeting at the ball and Huo Tianqing finding out that he almost broke both his legs, she felt a great pain in her heart. She didn't know how his injuries were now.
She really wanted to meet him, but with her current identity... Also, in her current situation, she couldn't meet him at all. She couldn't forget the promise she made in front of Huo Tianqing. She couldn't go against her promise and cause unnecessary harm to others.
She did not want to think about it anymore. She had been in the bathtub for an hour. Her hands and feet were covered in a layer of white skin. She got up and walked out of the bathtub, wiped the water on her body, and walked out of the bathroom in a bathrobe.
She suddenly thought of something and looked at the time. It was only nine o'clock. The butler and the maid had not rested yet. She wanted to go to Huo Tianqing's study room to find some clues. It would take late at night.
She could not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy. The consequences would be unimaginable.
She put on her pajamas again and walked out of the room. She walked to the first floor and pretended to be thirsty for water. Seeing that Butler Lin and the maids were busy, she did not say anything. She just checked and went back to the room.
She tossed and turned on the bed. When it was 12 o'clock in the night, it was already quiet.
She lifted the blanket and walked barefoot on the cold floor. She gently opened the door. The ceiling of the corridor was still lit, but the light was obviously dim. The lights in the hall downstairs had been turned off. Everyone had already fallen asleep.
She walked to the door of the study and looked around. There was no one. She did not hear any movement either. She reached out and gently unscrewed the lock. She pushed the door open and walked in quietly. It was pitch black in the study room. She walked in from her pocket. She took out a small flashlight and lit it up. A bright light was lit in the study room.
She began to search the study room. It was filled with all kinds of books. She rummaged through the books, then walked to the desk and gently opened the drawer. She looked through them. Other than the plans for the various cooperation projects, there were also some documents that he couldn't understand, which were in the drawer on the second last floor. She flipped through countless of them and found a photo frame. She was curious... She took it out and opened it. It was a photo of him and his family. Basically, it was taken when he was young...
She had never seen his family before. Even after it ended, his family had not been present, nor had she heard him mention it.
She was just a pawn in his position, why would he tell her this! What a joke!
She put the album back into the drawer and saw the notebook on the table. She put it on the flashlight and opened the notebook. She thought that she could find something, but she did not expect that she would need to enter the password. It could be seen that this man was so cautious!
She wanted to continue searching in the study, but she vaguely heard voices outside the door. The voices were coming in this direction. She was stunned and panicked. There was no place for her to hide in the huge study.
The voices were getting closer and closer, and her heart was beating even faster. When she saw the window open, without saying a word, she climbed to the window. This was only the second floor, but looking down, it was so high. Her heart kept thumping, afraid that she would be careless. She would fall down from here.
She slowly and carefully walked through the window and reached out her foot to step on the air conditioner. Just as she squatted down, the light in the study lit up. She was so scared that she covered her chest. Luckily, she hid in time. Otherwise, he would have found out. If he found out... The consequences would be unimaginable.
"Arlie, send that shipment to the villa on top of the mountain. The police in Thailand have already arrived in Taiwan and have begun to investigate this matter. If the person killed was from Taiwan, it would cost some money. However, this time, it was the police from Thailand who were involved in this matter. We have to be careful!" Huo Tianqing and Lei Lia walked into the study with their backs facing him. He said.
"Yes, please rest assured, Director Huo. I will take care of it as soon as possible." Director Huo had already told him the last time, but he did not expect Thailand to send police over so quickly. The Thai diplomat stationed in Taiwan had also negotiated with Taiwan. Therefore, he had ordered his subordinates to load the goods to the villa on top of the mountain.
"Transporting this batch of goods tonight, don't let anyone know about it, we have to act in secret" Huo Tianqing told Lei Lia.
"Yes." Lei Lia nodded and said respectfully.
Huo Tianqing walked to the desk and wanted to open his notebook. However, he found that someone had moved his drawer, but the last floor was not completely closed. He frowned slightly and his eyes revealed a cautious look. He stretched out his hand to open the drawer. Indeed, someone had moved the things inside.
Without guessing, he knew who had entered his study and touched his things. However, he did not expect her to be so bold as to challenge his bottom line again and again.
"Director Huo, what's wrong?" Lei Lia saw Director Huo frown deeply and seemed to be deep in thought, so he asked.
He came back to his senses and his expression was calm. He closed the drawer again and looked at Lei Lia calmly. "Nothing."
