“She arrived. Why are you looking for her?” Zhou Jingyun asked.

“Someone is investigating Sister-in-law. That person used a lot of connections. I just got the news,” Zhou Mingfei said quickly.

“Huh? Who is it?” Zhou Jingyun frowned.

“Someone from Six Blessing Corporation. I’ve already asked someone to investigate their identity. We temporarily do not know who from the Xie family is investigating her yet.” Zhou Mingfei asked, “Are you going to tell Sister-in-law about this, or should I call her to let her know about this?”

“I’ll tell her.” After Zhou Jingyun said that, he suddenly remembered something. “Right, what did you say just now? Why did you ask if your sister-in-law had arrived at the company?”

“Ah? Sister-in-law came to my place for a massage this morning. I originally wanted to bring her out for lunch, but she said that you were looking for her, so she went back to the company to look for you.” Zhou Mingfei noticed that Zhou Jingyun’s tone was not right, so he was much more careful when he spoke. “Brother, what’s wrong?”

“No-nothing.” Zhou Jingyun’s tone was a little stunned. This way, Zhou Mingfei’s heart felt even more nervous. He did not know what had happened, so his tone was even more careful.

“It’s nothing. I’ll hang up first.” After saying that, Zhou Jingyun hung up the phone. He held the back of the office desk with his hand facing Jiang Tong. His expression was very interesting. He had a feeling of anger from being teased, but also a complicated feeling of relief. After a moment, he turned his head to look at Jiang Tong. He asked, “You teased me?”

“What do you mean ‘tease’ you?” Jiang Tong pretended to be confused. Zhou Jingyun knew he was being teased from her expression. He said, “You are so annoying.” After saying that, he put his phone on the desk, walked quickly to Jiang Tong, and knelt down with a thud! He knelt down with his knees together!

“I was wrong.” Even though Zhou Jingyun was kneeling, he still straightened his back and looked up at Jiang Tong. He spoke in a dignified tone. This kneeling made him look like a hero.

After kneeling, Zhou Jingyun got up from the ground. As he walked towards the office desk, he muttered, “How could there be such an annoying bet? You haven’t had lunch? Zhou Mingfei just called to say that someone from Six Blessings Corporation is investigating you. Do you know who it is?” His tone was very normal, it was as if he didn’t even kneel to apologize earlier.

“Six Blessings Corporation, the Xie family’s business,” Jiang Tong smiled. Her smile was a little strange. Of course, she knew who was investigating her. Of course, it was Xie Wenkai. Yesterday afternoon, she texted Xie Wenkai while she was on the road. She could imagine the panic Xie Wenkai felt after receiving the text. He probably didn’t sleep well last night. Jiang Tong’s cell phone number was registered under her real name. With the power and connections of the Xie family, they could easily find out everything about her. However, after Xie Wenkai found out her identity and background, whether he would believe the information he dug up about her would be none of her business. After all, with her family background, it was impossible for her to drive a Lamborghini. Xie Wenkai probably used his connections to find out more about Jiang Tong’s background.

“Why, you don’t know about it?” Zhou Jingyun asked in return. Logically speaking, if someone was secretly investigating, it was impossible for the person being investigated to know. However, Zhou Jingyun had a feeling that Jiang Tong knew, because she was an intelligence dealer.

“I know,” Jiang Tong smiled.

“Then who do you think is investigating you?” Zhou Jingyun smiled. Unfortunately, Jiang Tong did not want to say anything. She simply said, “Don’t get involved in this matter.”

“Get involved? I don’t have the time to care about you.” Zhou Jingyun walked to the clothes rack and took off his suit jacket. At the same time, he said, “There’s a new Italian restaurant on Kaiming Street. Do you want to go over and try out their food?”

“Let’s go,” Jiang Tong agreed and stood up.

After Zhou Jingyun put on his jacket, he saw Jiang Tong’s white shirt collar had been flipped. He smoothly adjusted her collar for her. This feeling… was like he had found a boyfriend instead of a girlfriend.

“Did you feel comfortable kneeling to a woman?” Jiang Tong asked Zhou Jingyun with a smile. Her tone was very calm, but it was inexplicably infuriating to him.

Comfortable? Zhou Jingyun’s hand that was fixing Jiang Tong’s collar paused for a second or two. Then, he smiled and said, “Are you deliberately provoking me?” He looked down at Jiang Tong. In fact, Jiang Tong was very tall and slender. In addition to the aura around her, it made people feel that she was even taller, and it made people look up to her.

“Of course not,” Jiang Tong denied with a smile. “I just wanted to interview you. You know that in our line of work, we have to understand people’s hearts. So I especially want to know what you think in your heart even though you don’t seem to care about kneeling down.”
