Shi Xiao got into the car and said to Zhao Cheng, who was driving, βGo to Shenglan Venture Investment Company.β
Zhao Cheng nodded and stepped on the accelerator. Then, the car rushed out. πππππ°π£ππ.πππ
Shi Xiao took the opportunity to close his eyes and rest. Then, he carefully recalled what had happened in the past few days, in hopes of finding something fishy.
All along, he had felt that there was an invisible hand controlling everything in the dark. Unfortunately, he couldnβt find any clues, so he could only put this matter aside.
He had also suspected that it was the most mysterious Jiang Chen of the Jiang family until a few nights ago, when Yuan Shu suddenly called him and told him that Mu Zhou was actually Jiang Chen. It turned out that he had been hiding beside everyone and using this inconspicuous identity to secretly observe everything.
Shi Xiao carefully recalled the few times he had seen Mu Zhou. The way he looked at Yuan Shu wasnβt platonic at all. There was also that tailor-made gown. If he didnβt pay attention to Yuan Shu often, how could he know Yuan Shuβs size so accurately and make a gown that matched her temperament so perfectly?
Since Jiang Chen treated Yuan Shu so well, he definitely wouldnβt harm Yuan Shu on purpose.
However, what Shi Xiao couldnβt understand was that Tan Jing had plotted against him and Yuan Shu in No Manβs Land. Jiang Chen must have instigated it. If Jiang Chen was interested in Yuan Shu, why would he set up this trap to make it more and more impossible for Yuan Shu to be with him?
Moreover, according to Shi Xiaoβs investigation, Yuan Shu had never interacted with Jiang Chen before. When did Jiang Chen start to develop feelings for Yuan Shu?
Shi Xiao sighed. The problem seemed to be more complicated than he had imagined.
Suddenly, Shi Xiao realized that he had neglected something.
Xingβan Software Company was Tan Jingβs new company and Yuan Shu invested one million yuan in it. If they really wanted to frame Yuan Shu for maliciously manipulating the share price, they would definitely tamper with this one million yuan.
Tan Jing was Jiang Chenβs man. Without Jiang Chenβs permission, why would Tan Jing attack?
He had to have a good chat with Jiang Chen.
But before that, he had to save Yuan Shu first.
When Shi Bin heard that someone was looking for him, he was a little surprised, since he had been working here for two months, but no one had ever looked for him. He walked downstairs curiously. When he saw Shi Xiaoβs handsome side profile through the car window, he instinctively wanted to turn around and run away.
βShi Bin.β
Shi Bin had just turned around when Shi Xiao stopped him.
He laughed awkwardly and asked, βBrother, why are you here?β
Shi Xiao turned to look at him. If not for the fact that there was something more important now, he would definitely teach his brother, who hadnβt returned home for two months, a lesson!
Shi Xiao said coldly, βGet in the car. I have something to ask you.β
Shi Bin swallowed hard and got into the car in fear. Unexpectedly, Shi Xiao didnβt scold him. He only told him what had happened today with a serious expression.
After Shi Bin heard this, he was very shocked. Then, he suddenly thought of something. βI was wondering why! Iβve been monitoring Sister-in-lawβs account personally, but two days ago, my colleague insisted on pulling me downstairs to buy something. It was useless no matter how I rejected him, so 1 followed him.β
βAlthough it didnβt take long, 40 minutes is enough for a lot of operations. Moreover, when I came back, I realized that my computer had been tampered with. Sister-in-lawβs account must have been tampered with at that time!β
Shi Xiao looked at him with exasperation, but it was useless even if he scolded him now. The most important thing was to find evidence immediately and bring Yuan Shu back first.
Without another word, Shi Bin immediately ran upstairs to collect ail the data from his computer and place it on the USB drive. Then, he followed Shi Xiao to the Industry and Commerce Bureau.
After Yuan Shu returned to the Industry and Commerce Bureau with the four of them, she was brought to an office. Yuan Shu didnβt look uneasy or panicked. Instead, she sat at the side of the desk calmly.
From her attitude and temperament, the Industry and Commerce Bureau didnβt believe that she had manipulated the share price. However, they still asked Yuan Shu some questions.
Yuan Shu answered every question with ease and didnβt seem to be hiding anthing or lying. The staff of the Industry and Commerce Bureau also began to suspect that this anonymous report was slander.
At this moment, someone walked in and whispered something to the inquiring staff. Then, the two of them left, leaving Yuan Shu alone in the office.
About an hour later, that person walked in again and said, βYuan Shu, weβve already finished the investigation. It has nothing to do with you. You can leave now..β
