Chapter 51: Was that why she was fawning over him? (4)

On the other side, over at NTN Technology Center, Gu Shao was far less happy.

He didn’t head to his office when he arrived at NTN Technology Center but went straight to Zuo Hua’s office.

“You got anything?” asked Gu Shao as soon as he walked inside.

“Yes. There is an audio file. Here you go.” Zuo Hua handed a USB drive to Gu Shao as he talked.

Out of respect for his good friend and professionalism, Zuo Hua did not listen to the audio file.

Out of curiosity, however, he did scan over the content through certain means. Somewhat similar to virus scan in documents.

Zuo Hua was surprised that he did not get any hits on any sensitive words.

“Thank you,” said Gu Shao. He then left with the USB drive.

Looking at Gu Shao’s back, Zuo Hua couldn't help but mumbled to himself. “I am done for. Now I am even more curious than before.” What could be so important that his good friend / boss would value so much that he’d reach out to him to take care of in the middle of the night?

Over on this side, Gu Shao had already returned to his office.

Inserting the USB drive, Gu Shao clicked open the only audio file

The first thing that he heard was noises of something hitting the ground.

Then it was a girl’s high and clear voice. It was fearful.

“You… …”

Gu Shao’s hand, resting on the mouse, tightened.

He paused the audio playback instantly.

Wang Wu was standing in a corner of the office, holding onto a portion of information on the Lin family and was about to report it to him.

Gu Shao looked over at Wang Wu, “Out.”

“Yes, Sir.” Wang Wu responded and exited the office.

Gu Shao clicked play again when he was alone in his office.

The girl’s voice resumed.

“What are you trying to do?”

The voice belonged to Lin Xi.

“What am I going to do? What do you think I am going to do?” It was a man’s voice. “You are going to serve me. If you do a good job at serving me… …”

… …

“You are lying! My grandmother said I am going to be here temporarily”, “Don’t come over”, “Please don’t come any closer”… …

The recording was only too obvious. So much that one could tell what was going on from the conversation alone without needing to see the picture.

Gu Shao’s hand over the mouse gripped tighter and tighter.

Wang Wu waited outside of the office door and had no idea what was going on inside.

All of a sudden, a loud noise coming from inside the office startled him.

He listened to the noises carefully. Was Gu Shao enraged?

His speculation startled even himself. He had worked for Gu Shao for years and had rarely ever seen him enraged.

Even back when he was still at the Gu family and left because of that one incident, he wasn’t enraged like he was right now.

Especially over the last few years, his temperament had settled down more and more and had rarely ever let his emotions shown like he was right now.

After a long while, Wang Wu heard Gu Shao’s voice and went back inside the office.

He saw the mouse that was in pieces and the half-broken keyboard on Gu Shao’s desk. Wang Wu was nervous. He approached Gu Shao carefully and said, “Sir?”

“Is that the information on the Lin family?” asked Gu Shao, his voice cold enough to send a chill down someone’s spine.

“Yes, it is.” Wang Wu handed the document over to Gu Shao.

– – The Lin family started their family business from taking advantages of the differences in prices of merchandizes in different regions and was now in the transportation business. Naturally, for a company their size, there would be some issues.

The limited amount of information that he had in his hand was sufficient to hurt them quite a bit.

Wang Wu wisely took a few steps back after handing the document over to Gu Shao. He took a quick glance over at Gu Shao during the process.

The anger on Gu Shao made Wang Wu’s heart sank.

Gu Shao quickly skimmed through the document and said, “Not enough.”

“Keep digging.”

“Yes, Sir.”

His aura was intimidating…

Thought Wang Wu to himself.

That night, when Gu Shao returned home, he had already returned to his normal self.

As soon as the door opened, he saw the bright smile on Lin Xi. “Hi Dad, you are home.”

“Perfect timing. Grandma Mei just finished preparing dinner.”

Gu Shao’s look deepened as he looked at the girl. The girl’s smile has the unique attractiveness that could only belong to someone her age. Except that, her smile made one’s heart ached.

“You don’t need to fawn over me,” said Gu Shao suddenly and calmly to Lin Xi.

He was a cold person but that did not mean that he has low emotional quotient. He had been around Lin Xi for a few days now and it was obviously that she was fawning deliberately.

Was that because she saw him as her only option?

Or was it because she worried that he would not want her, that she would have to return to the Lin family and go through what she had again. Was that why she was fawning over him?
