Cheng Jie watched Ye Yuwei’s reaction but did not say anything. He merely turned to look at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

“I am just curious why you’d be sitting here alone.”

“I am just resting here after walking for a long while,” Ye Yuwei answered in a nonchalant tone.

“Mike is not around today. I thought of walking outside, but I got lost. Since you are here, why don’t we go for a walk? I have something to check with you.” Cheng Jie did not nail her lie and continued saying.

“I am not well versed in business. Mr. Cheng, why don’t you check with Mr. Gu?” Ye Yuwei rejected him. She was stressed out with Cheng Jie around.

“Mr. Gu will be here too? Is the rumor true?” Cheng Jie asked curiously.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Cheng. I have something to do. I’ve got to go.” Ye Yuwei walked past him after nodding her head slightly.

“If that is the case, can you show me the way?” Cheng Jie asked again.

“Where do you want to go?” Ye Yuwei stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Cheng Jie with her hands clenched tightly on her bag.

“I don’t really know. I am here for the first time. If you don’t mind, can you take me around? You seem to have a question to ask me earlier,” Cheng Jie responded with a bright smile.

Ye Yuwei bit her lips together. In fact, she really did have some questions for Cheng Jie.

“Alright, are there any places that you are particularly interested in? Actually, there is nothing special in B City,” Ye Yuwei let her guard down as she said.

“Then I’ll leave it to you since I am lost,” Cheng Jie responded as he shrugged.

Ye Yuwei did not want to hang out too long with Cheng Jie. She was only interested in his answers to her questions.

“If you don’t mind, can we just walk around this place? The place is quite good.” Ye Yuwei asked.

“Sure.” Cheng Jie smiled.

Mike always accompanied Cheng Jie wherever he went. But this time, Cheng Jie was alone. Even if Ye Yuwei was curious, she did not ask him about this.

“I have checked the deals that Bo Shen Enterprise are involved in. You seemed to be interested in many different industries,” Ye Yuwei said as she walked.

Sitting in the car, Gu Juexi looked at both Ye Yuwei and Cheng Jie from afar as he held onto the steering wheel. The conversation between the two people echoed in his ears.

It was the microchip that Gu Juexi injected under Ye Yuwei’s skin yesterday night, as Cheng Jie had his eye on Ye Yuwei. Because Gu Juexi simply did not know what Cheng Jie was after, he could not help but resort to this.

“I remember a Chinese proverb ‘the crop from the field is as large as guts can yield’. Am I right?” Cheng Jie burst into laughter.

“You’re right, but provided that all the farmers are working diligently in this new development era. What do you think?” Ye Yuwei responded.

“Haha. The same thing happens in the business world. You said that I am interested in many industries. Are you implying that the money I earn is illegal?” Cheng Jie asked as he looked at Ye Yuwei.

Slightly startled, Ye Yuwei paused her steps. She never expected Cheng Jie’s response to be so straightforward.
