With Lu Yunqi's instructions, Qiu Chen quickly began to investigate a series of people who might be against Luo Ke. The only ones who knew Luo Ke's itinerary were his company, so she first started with the company and prepared to investigate it thoroughly. He brought a group of people as an excuse to discuss cooperation and directly entered the live broadcast. However, that group of people did not stay in the office to negotiate.
"Hello, I'm the CEO's assistant, Qiu Chen. I'm here to discuss the cooperation matters." The moment the young and handsome Qiu Chen entered the resting room, it attracted everyone's attention. He had become the Star Dream Group's CEO's assistant at such a young age. From a glance, one could tell that he was young and very handsome.
Their enthusiasm made Qiu Chen feel a little embarrassed. He quickly waved his hand and said, "Speak slowly, I can't hear your questions clearly anymore."
When one of the short-haired girls saw this, she immediately pestered him, "Since Assistant Qiu came to our company to discuss cooperation, why didn't you go to the CEO's office and instead come to our host's lounge?" As she spoke, she winked playfully at Qiu Chen.
"I just came over to do some research, that's all." He answered politely.
Then what does Assistant Qiu want to ask? "We must know and say everything we know." ""Another girl with a ponytail laughed.
"Then I'll have to trouble everyone. I want to ask if you all know the company's host, Lo Ke?" Qiu Chen smirked as he looked at them.
The broadcasters looked at each other and said, "Everyone in the company knows Luo Ke now, and she's still your company's boss' wife. How could we not know each other?"
Seeing that, Qiu Chen nodded his head in satisfaction and continued to ask, "Then do you know how she is doing in the company? "Is there anything you don't like about her?"
"It's too late for everyone to curry favor with Luo Ke. How could anyone not like her? I only know that the company's Qiao Mengmeng has a good relationship with her. I'm not very clear on the rest." At the start, the short-haired female streamer said in a soft voice, while the other streamers nodded in agreement, "But Luo Ke is becoming popular too quickly, there must be people in the company who don't like it. I don't know who they are, but you can ask them."
Qiu Chen's investigations could be said to be done in a very open and aboveboard manner. When Xiao Ling just returned to the company, he quickly discovered his movements and knew that it was definitely Lu Yunqi who had put the medicine on them. In order to not attract their attention, Xiao Ling decided to return to the winery to observe the subsequent events.
Thinking of this, she immediately packed his things and stealthily returned to the winery in preparation to hide. Xiao Ling did not head towards the hall of the winery, but instead directly to the horse riding field behind them. She knew that if Lu Yunqi sent someone to investigate, they would definitely investigate from the staff in the interior of the winery. In order to avoid checking up on Xiao Ling, he planned to hide in a horse farm with fewer people.
Her thoughts were very good, but reality wasn't as smooth as he thought. Just as Xiao Ling was leaving in a hurry in the corridor … Two men suddenly appeared in front of her. They stopped Xiao Ling and spoke in a somewhat serious manner, "Young lady, what are you doing here?"
Xiao Ling looked at their clothing and immediately realized that they weren't from inside the winery. Without a doubt, they were the investigators assigned by Lu Yunqi. She didn't expect him to be so quick.
The scheming Xiao Ling didn't panic. Instead, he revealed a decent smile towards him and calmly said, "I'm a guest here. I originally came here to look for the washroom, but I don't know why I came here. Are you from the staff here? Can you take me back to my room? "I am a guest at Orchid Pavilion No. 9." Xiao Ling's brows were knit tightly together as he pretended to be extremely anxious. It was as though he was really lost.
The two men looked at each other, then said, "I'm sorry, we've just arrived and aren't familiar with the road, so we might have to trouble you to find it yourself." After saying that, he quickly left. He probably had to go check other places.
Xiao Ling sighed in relief as he watched them leave. He hurriedly left the corridor and headed towards the riding fields at the back. The strong and healthy horses were running recklessly under the sunlight, and the gentle breeze brought a natural clean feeling to the face. Huo Tinghua's stables took up a lot of space, and it would take a period of time to get from the winery to here. However, due to Xiao Ling's nervousness, he was afraid that the two people investigating his had noticed that something was wrong and thus could not help but quicken his pace.
As soon as she opened the door and walked in, she heard Huo Liu Hua talking to his underlings about Luo Ke. She was stunned when he heard Luo Ke's name, as if he hadn't expected that he would be able to hear news of him here. After that, Xiao Ling subconsciously looked around his surroundings and hid, quietly listening to their conversation.
"Does Lu Yunqi know about Luo Ke's background?" Would it affect our plans if we knew? " His subordinate asked Huo Tinghua respectfully. Apparently, he had faith in his boss.
"If he knew, he wouldn't have just sat there and waited for death to come. He must have sensed something was wrong, but he doesn't have any concrete evidence. That's why he is in this situation." "You don't need to pay too much attention to Lu Yunqi. He's just a part of the plan. The one who's truly important is Luo Ke." Huo Liu said to her men while stroking a tall and powerful black horse.
"If that's the case, do we still need to keep an eye on Luo Ke's adoptive parents? The observation is that they don't know anything and that they have no relationship with Roche. " The person standing in front of Huo Tinghua was not that old, so he didn't seem to be that calm. He frowned and said with dissatisfaction.
"Since there isn't any useful information, we should call back everyone and pay attention to Luo Ke and Lu Yunqi." With that, Huo Tsinghua jumped onto the back of the horse and patted the horse's neck. He said to his men, "Lu Yunqi is keeping a tight watch on Luo Ke. Find some more opportunities to carefully observe them and bring back the jade pendant." Then he rode away.
Hiding in the corner, Xiao Ling subconsciously covered his mouth. She didn't expect that Luo Ke wasn't the biological child of the original Xiao family. Furthermore, since Huo Liu paid such attention to her, it only showed that her background was not simple and that there might be some hidden dangers. Xiao Ling quietly left the horse farm and did not make any noise. Instead, she decided to secretly pay attention to Luo Ke.
