The two of them went down the stairs together and happened to meet Wang Xue, who went upstairs to check. The three of them met directly at the corner of the stairs.
Wang Xue noticed that Jiang Cheng had a woman with him at a glance. Her face suddenly changed. She asked unpleasantly, "Jiang Cheng, who is she?"
Jiang Cheng remembered that he still had Wang Xue waiting for him downstairs. Why was he stupid enough to call Cai Min? This Cai Min is really something. I just casually invited her. Why did she follow me?
Jiang Cheng smiled embarrassedly and said, "This is my company's employee, Cai Min. She is my assistant secretary. Cai Min, this is my good friend, Wang Xue, from the Municipal Criminal Police Brigade."
Wang Xue's face was displeased. She said in her heart, "Am I just your good friend? What assistant secretary? Nowadays, secretaries are the worst, especially the female secretaries of male bosses. They like to seduce rich people like Jiang Cheng the most. "
Cai Min extended her hand to Wang Xue generously. Wang Xue was a straightforward woman. Seeing that others had taken the initiative to be friendly, she also extended her hand and shook hands with Cai Min to show friendliness.
Jiang Cheng saw that there was no conflict between the two, and his heart was at ease. He asked the two to go downstairs together.
Originally, according to Wang Xue's personality, there would always be some topics to talk about with Jiang Cheng. However, because of the presence of Cai Min today, Wang Xue also began to become reticent. She pouted and didn't speak along the way. She sat in the car and looked out the window. It seemed that there was a beautiful scenery outside.
The three of them drove to the Pizza Hut restaurant next to the Civic Square. At night, many citizens had appeared in the Civic Square. The Civic Square seemed to be very lively. The various shops around the square were also crowded.
Pizza Hut was located on the east side of the Civic Square, just at the entrance of the pedestrian street. The prosperous area, good geographical location, and the reputation of the brand made the only Pizza Hut restaurant in Jiangnan City very popular.
At this time, it was almost overcrowded. Jiang Cheng only found a table near the corner with Wang Xue and Cai Min. The three of them weren't picky and sat down on this seat.
When they sat down, Wang Xue and Cai Min didn't choose to sit next to Jiang Cheng. Instead, they sat opposite Jiang Cheng, which made Jiang Cheng a little embarrassed.
Jiang Cheng waved to the waiter to order. The waiter greeted the three of them politely, "Good evening, welcome to the Pizza Hut restaurant. What do you want to eat?"
As the waiter said this, he took out the menu and handed it to each of them. Jiang Cheng took a look at the menu and found that there were a lot of things here, but they weren't cheap. A pizza for two people cost nearly two hundred yuan. There were other drinks and desserts that weren't cheap either. Basically, there wasn't anything that was less than ten yuan. All of them were dozens or hundreds of yuan.
It was also the first time for Wang Xue and Cai Min to eat at Pizza Hut. The two of them looked at the menu and ordered excitedly. After a while, the menu was almost a thousand yuan. Wang Xue looked at the menu, then she clapped her hands with satisfaction and said to the waiter, "Okay, that's it for now. Please hurry up. I'm starving."
The waiter put away the menu and left after saying that they would wait for a while. Jiang Cheng looked at Wang Xue and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did you not eat lunch at noon?"
Wang Xue rolled her eyes at Jiang Cheng and said, "Of course, I didn't eat. If it weren't for investigating your case, I wouldn't be so tired. You bastard, you don't even know how to comfort me."
"Investigating my case? Didn't my case only start at night? Why did you start investigating at noon? "
"What? It's not about tonight's case. I told you last time. Didn't you catch Liu Wei? We have already started a secret investigation based on Liu Wei's confession. I believe that it won't take long for us to get the evidence. You just wait!" Wang Xue said confidently.
When Jiang Cheng heard her say this, he knew that Wang Xue had been busy investigating Liu Wei and Liu Qingyun's case. The people involved in this case were too important. They were the elders of his group. It wasn't convenient for Jiang Cheng to make a move. After all, they were the elders of the group. If he wasn't careful, it would cause a backlash from the board of directors. Although he could use absolute equity to suppress the matter, it would have a bad impact after all. If the outside media reported something crazy, then it would be more passive.
Cai Min heard Liu Wei's name appear in the conversation between the two people. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "President Jiang, is the Liu Wei you are talking about the Liu Wei who was the former head of our group's security department?"
Jiang Cheng nodded. "En, it's him. He is the murderer who killed our Director Fang!"
When Cai Min heard that Liu Wei was the murderer, she was stunned for a moment. After a while, she murmured, "It turns out that the rumors are true!"
Jiang Cheng, who had sharp ears, couldn't help but listen to this sentence. He asked inexplicably, "What rumors?"
Cai Min was stunned and said, "There has been a rumor in the group that the disappearance of Director Fang is inextricably related to the head of security, Liu Wei. Since his position as the head was removed by you, he disappeared. People in the group began to speculate that Liu Wei must have absconded to avoid punishment. Moreover."
"Moreover what?"
"Moreover, there are rumors that Director Fang's death is also inextricably related to Vice-president Liu. Someone saw Vice-president Liu and Liu Wei secretly meeting. Vice-president Liu secretly gave Liu Wei a bag. People who saw it guessed that it was a bag of money. It is very likely that it was Vice-president Liu's commission for the murder!" Cai Min's forehead was covered in cold sweat. She had heard these things more than once. Since Director Fang's death, the whole group had been in a panic.
When Jiang Cheng heard Cai Min's words, he realized that he didn't know what everyone in his group knew. He hurriedly asked, "What other inside stories do you know?"
Cai Min thought for a moment and said, "Someone said that Vice-president Liu's behavior has been very abnormal recently. Since you came back, Vice-president Liu has been secretly selling his property. His house and car have been sold!"
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but slap the table and stand up. "What? Why didn't you tell me earlier? "
Jiang Cheng and Wang Xue weren't fools. When they heard Cai Min say this, they knew that Liu Yuanqing was planning to run away with the money. Needless to say, his shares must have been sold to someone else. Maybe the buyer was the mastermind behind the scenes. Jiang Cheng believed that this black guy was most likely Qian Jin.
At this time, the pizza was just delivered. The waiter took a plate of food and pastries back and forth three times before Wang Xue and Jiang Cheng's orders were served. When Jiang Cheng saw the food was served, he greeted the two and said, "Let's eat first. After eating, Wang Xue, come with me to Liu Yuanqing's home."
Wang Xue nodded and then rolled up her sleeves to eat. Jiang Cheng couldn't help but be shocked by Wang Xue's posture. I don't know what this woman wants to do. It's just eating pizza. Do you need to be so exaggerated? No one is going to snatch it from you.
However, the facts quickly changed Jiang Cheng's mind because they really had to snatch to eat this thing. The pizza wasn't big. The three of them ate it one by one and finished it in a short time. Without pizza, bread and pastries were also staple foods. Wang Xue was probably really hungry. Her eating style was really a bit ugly. It made Jiang Cheng, the king of eating, stunned.
After half an hour, they were full. Wang Xue patted her belly and said to Jiang Cheng, "Boss, go and pay the bill!"
Jiang Cheng shook his head helplessly and called the waiter over. The waiter took out the bill and said to Jiang Cheng, "Hello, sir. You have spent a total of 1180 yuan. Do you want to pay by credit card or cash?"
Jiang Cheng's eyebrows couldn't help but frown. He thought, It can't be. There was just a lot of stuff just now. I haven't even filled my stomach yet, and it costs 1180 yuan. This is too much!
However, since it was this kind of shop, the cost naturally wouldn't be low. Jiang Cheng took out the nine hundred yuan that he extorted from Huang Weiguo from his pocket and started to dig into his pocket. However, he found that he didn't put his wallet on him.
Jiang Cheng said to Wang Xue awkwardly, "Xue Er, do you have money on you?"
Wang Xue looked at him with a vigilant face and asked, "What?"
Jiang Cheng whispered, "I didn't bring my wallet. I don't have enough money. Give me three hundred yuan. I will pay for the meal!"
Wang Xue said with a righteous face, "Jiang Cheng, how can you be so shameless? You extorted nine hundred yuan from the Huang Group for a meal, and then you ask me for money to pay the bill. How can you be so shameless? Are you still a man? "
Jiang Cheng was scolded by Wang Xue in public. Suddenly, his face was redder than a chicken's butt. He said embarrassedly, "Don't be like this. It's not that I don't want to return it to you. My money is in my car. Lend me three hundred yuan first. I will return it to you in the car!"
Cai Min saw that the two were still bickering. She quickly took out her wallet from her bag and handed three hundred yuan to Jiang Cheng. She said, "You don't have to borrow it. I have it here. Pay the bill first!"
When Jiang Cheng saw that, he thought, Cai Min is still gentle and considerate. He smiled and wanted to reach out to take the three hundred yuan.
But before his hand touched the money, Wang Xue grabbed the Grandpa Mao from Cai Min's hand and said with a righteous face, "Don't, Little Min. Why do you have to give him money? He is your boss. Only he can give you money. Let me do it. He asked me to borrow it."
After that, Wang Xue put Cai Min's three hundred yuan back into Cai Min's hand. Then, she took out a wallet from her pocket and carefully counted three hundred yuan and put it on the table. Then, she said to Jiang Cheng in a serious manner, "Here, three hundred yuan. Remember that you owe me. When I am happy, you will return the money to me. When I am unhappy, you will return the money to me!"
Jiang Cheng was stunned and asked, "Then, when do I return the money to you?"
