To Love You Again

Chapter 93 - Step 1

Chapter 93 - Step 1

Time is precious.

Xiong Zhi believed in that saying. She did not waste any time. After breakfast, she went directly to SHM.

_____________

Lin Ruo was checking their ratings for this week's news when a call came from the telephone.

With his eyes still reviewing the numbers, he picked it up.

"SHM's spokesperson speaking."

"Good morning, Sir. A high school kid wants to make an appointment with you."

The receptionist on the ground floor looked at Xiong Zhi sideways.

Over the past month, there were a lot of whistleblowers that came to their company.

So it doesn't matter if the visitor was young or old. They let them in and assigned them a team to investigate the matter.

However, this time a high school student doesn't want to be assigned to any teams but insisted to meet the owners.

The receptionist initially wanted to lead Xiong Zhi to the room where the journalist were and start her story with them. Like what she was doing with everybody else when they said they wanted to meet the owners. She just thought that Xiong Zhi has secrets to tell, a matter that includes authorities or rich people that could only be said to the trusted ones, like the owners.

But Xiong Zhi seems to know what she would do and commanded her to call directly Mr. Lin Ruo.

The receptionist got scared when she heard the authoritative voice and serious look of Xiong Zhi. But what more scared her was how Xiong Zhi said Mr. Lin Ruo's name, one of the Owners, so easily. Like they are just buddies.

So she called Mr. Lin Ruo's number without any second thoughts.

'Maybe it is really a big matter.'

She took one look again.

The young girl's skin was pristine white and had a black silky hair.

'She looks so rich. Maybe she's related to one of the owners?'

"W-what?! Is she a tall girl, have pretty face and look so rich?!" Lin Ruo's surprised voice sounded on the other line.

There was only one high school girl who could make his receptionist call him directly.

There was only one girl that would look for them personally.

"Oh. Y-yes!" The receptionist was surprised as well.

'It sounds like Mr. Ruo knows this girl! Oh my! Did I treat her well? I did, right? '

"Let her in! Let her in! Oh, No! I will come! I will come down in a minute!" Lin Ruo ended it and dialed a number.

He was fixing his collar while waiting for the other person to answer.

'Damn! This guy so slow!'

" Ruo, I'm not yet done with this morning article. You see, I'm very busy-"

"Muscled guy! Boss is here!"

Mu Fian who was holding a draft of news article got silent.

He put the telephone in his other ear.

"Who's boss? You, me, Xian Tao or Gi Pi-"

Mu Fian was confused. The four of them are the owners. So basically, all of them are bosses.

"No! I'm talking about the BIG BOSS! THE PRETTY YOUNG BIG BOSS!"

Mu Fian finally got the clue.

"Sh#@$t! Where is she?! I haven't taken a bath!"

"Geez! Just go downstairs. I'm heading down. Call the others as well."

"W-wait! You call them! I will just brush my teeth quickly!"

"What?! You haven't even brush your teeth?! You're working in the company, not your house! Don't brush your teeth, we don't have time. Just don't talk later!" Lin Ruo put down the telephone.

On his way to the elevator, he called Xian Tao and Gi Pieng.

He told the same way.

The two acted fast and met him on the ground floor.

Mu Fan joined them when they were in the lobby area.

At the lobby area, Xiong Zhi was given a seat and a tea.

The receptionist was giving her best to cater to Xiong Zhi's needs. She's been constantly asking Xiong Zhi if there's anything she wants. Having been bombarded by the receptionist repetitive questions Xiong Zhi gave in and ask for tea.

However, the receptionist still did not distance herself from her. But stand beside her just like a butler.

Suddenly, four young men in assorted figures run to her table.

"Boss!"

They shouted simultaneously as they reached her.

Xiong Zhi and the receptionist were overwhelmed by their sudden shout.

Lin Ruo was the first one who bowed and exchanged greetings to her.

"I apologize for the lack of our preparations. Do you find anything uncomfortable?"

The three at his side nodded at Xiong Zhi. Encouraging her to speak and a sign of apologizing as well.

"There's no need for that. I understand you are all busy. I just need to discuss something with all of you."

"Sure. Sure. You're so understanding. Let's come to my office." Lin Ruo said with the most polite smile he has.? The three at his side nodded as well and smiled with all kindness.

The receptionist who witnessed this got more scared and nervous.

'If the bosses treat this lady kindly, then it means this lady has a high position. Sh#[email?protected] I did not perform bad, right? '

" It's okay, even we use one of these rooms." Xiong Zhi uses her index finger to point to those rooms for visitors who have something to report.

The four just nodded and followed Xiong Zhi's wishes.

They went to one of the rooms.

Xiong Zhi did not waste any time.

"I've heard that you're doing well. Keep it up. I'm here for another matter."

Xiong Zhi laid the envelope on the table.

"I have a favor to ask of you. I want you to investigate every profile in this envelope. Who they are meeting in this past month. Who they talk to. Where they go usually. And find unusual in those routines."

The four pairs of eyes shined.

They were good at this.

Stalking someone.

"Please handle it discreetly." Xiong Zhi added.

Lin Ruo who was the spokesperson of their group answered very politely.

"Yes, boss. We will handle it personally."

Xiong Zhi just raised an eyebrow to how they addressed her.

But then she nodded.

She trusted these four. She knew they were talented and capable.

"Oh. There is also an old contract there. It's related to the Lu's. You can check it out but don't bother about it too much. Just focus on the investors."

Xiong Zhi reminded the four to not focus on the Lu's. Since that family is like hers. They would be instantly alarmed no matter how discreet you are at investigating them.

The four just nodded. However, their eyes contain some anticipation.

They knew the Lu's. They were the untouchable family.

They were really curious about this old contract. Touching the hem of this legendary family excited them.

Xiong Zhi was right that these four were really talented in terms of digging information. However, she didn't know how deep their curiosity was in this matter.

These four cats' curiosity that would bring her trouble later on.
