"Find out more about Jin Zicheng?!"
"Is that so …" "I was deep in thought." You didn't tell her? "
"Ah?" Good... But she hasn't asked me much lately, probably because I've been acting like I don't know anything about it? "
Hong Yun shook off my hand and pretended to be impatient. "Then, I really have to thank you for your trust."
We smiled at each other.
She said, "Come on, you go on up. Be careful she might suspect you later."
"Alright." I nodded. "Slow down."
Hong Yun waved his hand and left.
I looked at her back, then up at the sky, and suddenly realized that there was no moon or stars tonight.
The sky was covered with big black clouds. It seemed like it was going to rain again.
A few days later, Hong Yun secretly sent a message to me. She had already told Xia Xiaoran about going to the teahouse in the north part of the city.
I heaved a sigh of relief. The first step had been completed, and the trap was already halfway through.
The problem is, Jin Zicheng likes to go to the North District Teahouse on Saturday, I made it up. How do I make him go there?
There are two ways of lying to me: one, to trick him into doing it again; and two, to tell him the truth, and to negotiate for him.
Based on the lesson I'd learned from the last incident, I thought it might be better to tell him the truth, or he might do something to me if he found out I'd lied to him.
I hesitated to send Jin Zicheng a message: Do you have time now? I want to discuss something with you.
In a few minutes, Jin Zicheng called. I picked it up and heard his usual cold voice. "I have time now. You can come find me now."
"Looking for you?" I stopped tapping the keyboard for a second. "Can't I do it on the phone? "Right now, I …"
"At work?" He interrupted me and continued without waiting for my reply. "Then it's even more important. Don't forget that you have something to discuss with me, so you have to show some sincerity. Otherwise, I won't listen."
After hesitating for a few seconds, I compromise, "Alright, where should we meet?"
"Of course you came to the company looking for me. As for where we're going to go after that, we'll talk about it when we get here. " Jin Zicheng said calmly and hung up the phone.
I had no choice but to ask Yi Xudong for a leave of absence. This time, even I felt embarrassed.
Fortunately, Yi Xudong magnanimously made the decision to be fake, causing me to feel less awkward.
I got a taxi to Jin Zicheng's company, and went to the front desk to say that I wanted to see Jin Zicheng.
