Chapter 1151 Don’t Want Him Dead

Hiss! After Wang Zhanting’s reminder, Shao Weihua’s excitement immediately dropped to the lowest point. "You mean..."

"No, Mr. Shao, I don’t mean anything, just hope you can calm down. Although the situation is not on our side now, several factions are in chaos, you should not ignore those people’s conspiracy theories, we can’t trust anyone. Before the President issues a new task strategy, we should always be on guard, and tomorrow is the day you trade with Fourth Master, Mu Rongyun is also not an easy person to deal with."

Before Shao Weihua could think carefully about Wang Zhanting’s words, Robert, already dressed, appeared in front of him. "Mr. Shao, I’m late."

"Glad you came back, glad you came back!" Shao Weihua hugged Robert firmly. "Zhanting, book the best private box, I want to calm Robert’s nerves."

"Understood, Mr. Shao, I’ll handle it now."

Robert gave a friendly smile to Wang Zhanting, until the door behind them closed with a bang.

"Mr. Shao, don’t ask anything." Robert looked around nervously and then walked over to the window. "We should move out of here quickly."

"Why?" Shao Weihua raised an eyebrow at Robert’s actions.

"Come over and see." With that, Robert pointed to the street outside the window. "The person standing at the newsstand has been watching here for a long time, two people near the convenience store, and the person across the street trimming the lawn."

"You mean we’re being watched here."

"Do these people appear here every day, in fixed places?" Robert put down the curtain.

"Some do, some occasionally do." Shao Weihua understood Robert’s meaning. "Who could they be?"

"Could be anyone."

Director Meisai had been hearing a lot of gossip since he entered the police station early. These few days, apart from a few specific days, he had been quite idle, yet always felt something was missing, but couldn’t identify what it was, until Tang suddenly emerged from the door he realized he hadn’t seen this little guy for a very long time. So when Tang hopped in from outside, casually locking the door, his mouth was agape, looking so funny and amusing, of course, Tang’s complaints followed.

"Meisai hasn’t thought of me much lately, now he’s staring at me with those big eyes like he’s seen a ghost." Tang placed the lollipop he just bought into his mouth.

"Where have you been these days?" It wasn’t about not remembering, but rather continuously reminding himself with concern that he had gone to his boss, so he’d be fine.

"I didn’t go anywhere, just stayed home." With that, Tang mysteriously shook the USB in his hand. "The master hasn’t had time to find me recently, during the stormy day too." Meisai suddenly raised an eyebrow, according to this, it seemed he hadn’t received any news regarding Mu Rongyun for a long time either. "Meisai, I have a question for you."

"Ask, little guy."

"That day, was it you who hit the master in the residence? You were the one who handed Xiao Lin over to Chopin in the end, right?" Meisai licked his lips, not knowing how to respond for a while. Tang was smart, since he could ask, it meant he had enough evidence to counter his denial, whether nodding or shaking his head wouldn’t be the best outcome. "Your attitude has already given me the answer! Although the master would be very angry with you for doing so, I also don’t want that Xiao Lin to die, without your appearance that day, he would definitely have been killed by the master."

"How did you know I was on the scene."

"Just happened to pass by, Hong Lian sent a message, so I went over to see, never expected to see you hand Xiao Lin over to that big star, I just want to know why you did it?"

"To repay a favor, it’s as simple as that, and this Xiao Lin is not destined to die."

"Hmm, alright!" Tang didn’t seem to intend to pursue further, making Meisai feel much relaxed, he held his always icy cold hands that penetrated deep into the heart, in such warm climate, yet Tang was as cold as if he’d just walked out of an ice dungeon, whereas he himself felt nothing, still wearing little clothing. "I think, although that Xiao Lin earned a life due to your rescue, he will soon be sent back for killing a government official."

"Huh?" Meisai stared, looking at Tang without understanding.

"Take it!" Tang threw the USB in his hand to Meisai. "I got this in the past few days, it might help that Xiao Lin. Since Meisai saved him, I’m giving it to you."

Holding the small, keychain-sized USB in his hand, Meisai was dazed, unable to comprehend the change in this little fellow. It seemed like since Xiao Lin appeared before him, something around them was broken, that sense of weightless imbalance becoming clearer and more mysterious.

"Tang!" Meisai called out to Tang who was ready to leave. "Why are you helping Xiao Lin?"

"I don’t know. I just think you don’t want him dead, and I also think it’s better if he stays alive."

No time to ponder, the car slowly entered the parking area under the ’Rhine’ building. A three-layer underground parking lot was filled with cars, finding a parking spot was quite difficult. It was just after 2 PM now, were there already so many customers gathered here to spend money? Meisai thought while searching for a spot. ’Rhine’ was quite famous, but the Xia Family that founded ’Rhine’ was not as well known as their brand. Domestically, they hadn’t entered the social elite, but the daughter of the Xia Family was often idly brought up in conversations for a reason; this beauty was once the woman who sparked a battle between two men, marking the beginning of a family’s downfall.

Meisai briefly organized the information about this Xia Xue in his mind. This time it was officially placed because the person he was meeting was Xiao Lin, not Xia Xue, but the relationship between the two was so deep that even he, a foreigner, had to dig up some gossip to explore the depth of their relationship, what he could say, and what he shouldn’t, even though women were always sensitive and dangerous creatures.

After parking, Meisai jumped out of the car. The meeting time was just right now, but he was already late due to finding a parking spot. Meeting a woman had never made him flustered before, he hurriedly entered the elevator straight to the tenth floor of ’Rhine’, which belonged to the office area. Standing by the elevator door was an oriental beauty with considerable presence, appearing to have waited a bit.

"Director Meisai?" Lorin checked her watch, it was 2:03 PM.

"Yes, and you are?" Meisai was surprised that the beauty spoke Italian so fluently, with no trace of a foreign accent, something even native Italians find difficult due to varying regional accents.

"I’m Lorin, President Xia’s secretary, I’m here to welcome you."

"I apologize! I’m late." As a gentleman, Meisai was now definitely an example of this title; being late requires no explanation, apologizing is the best approach.

"At this time of day, parking spots are hard to find."

"Ah! Haha." Meisai’s first reaction was to the security system here, due to his police instincts and reactions to the important information leaked from Lorin’s words. This girl wouldn’t be foolish enough not to know how to respond adequately, implying it was intentional.

Originally, Meisai thought he would enter a very formal office, but unexpectedly the room’s decor was too comfortable and casual, more like a living room than an office or conference room.

"This place..."

"Haha, Director Meisai, please wait for a moment, President Xia is on a call; she will be with you shortly. This is her lounge." Lorin was preparing flower tea and afternoon snacks. "President Xia knows you have the habit of drinking afternoon tea, so she specifically instructed to entertain you in such an environment. Besides, your conversation today is unrelated to work; she maintains clear boundaries between public and private matters."

"Thank you!"

Xia Xue did not let Meisai wait long; shortly after Meisai sat down on the pink sofa, she walked in, though Xiao Lin was not in sight.

"Hello Director Meisai, we’ve met before." Xia Xue’s long hair was casually tied at the back of her head, with a few strands falling outside. Her palm-sized face may not be exquisitely beautiful, but the combination had its charm.

In Meisai’s eyes, Xia Xue was petite and lovely, with a different kind of beauty than Westerners. "I apologize, I am late."

"No problem, I’m late too, am I not?" Xia Xue grasped the corner of her long skirt with her right hand. Despite the trendy elements being nice, they were a bit troublesome for her. After Xia Xue entered, Lorin quietly withdrew; she had many tasks to attend to, including postponing all afternoon meetings and visitors. "Director, you don’t mind meeting here, do you?"

"A bit unexpected, but I don’t mind."

"Lin doesn’t like discussing matters in my office; this place is more comfortable and safer."

"’Rhine’s security system, I think, may be several tiers above our police station." Meisai joked halfway, but it was true.

"Let’s set aside the pleasantries, Director, your official proposal for placement this time isn’t meant for pleasantries. There’s no outsider or surveillance equipment here; you can openly state your purpose." (To be continued.
