CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 333: INVESTIGATING THE BACKGROUND

Afterward, the three of them left the office.

But before they got far, Shen Yiming suddenly stopped in his tracks and stared at Leng Lingxiao, "Damn, I forgot my phone!"

"Let’s go back and get it."

Leng Lingxiao thought it was left in the office.

"No, I think I left it at your place."

It had been nearly five hours since they left Lingxiao Manor, and only now did Shen Yiming remember his phone.

Leng Lingxiao suggested with a look of schadenfreude, "How about using mine... to give it a try? Maybe it’s on the patio coffee table."

"No need, it’s definitely there."

"Is there an urgent matter you need to handle? Should we have someone send it over to you?"

Shen Yiming shrugged, "What urgent matter could I possibly have? No need to send it, it’s more trouble than it’s worth. Let’s hurry, where’s our next destination?"

Clearly, he was somewhat anxious.

Upon seeing this, a hint of cunning flashed in Leng Lingxiao’s eyes, and then he shook his head with a smile, "For now, it’s a secret. You’ll find out soon."

"You’re not planning to sell me off, are you?"

"How could I, hahaha!"

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Feng Jiaming felt a mix of emotions.

Shen Yiming, just 30 years old, was already a senior engineer in medical devices in Country D and had even served as a CEO. He definitely had some skills. Moreover, he seemed to have an unusual relationship with the chairman.

Friend? Perhaps ’close friend’ was more fitting!

Even though Shen Yiming hadn’t overtly emphasized his presence in the meeting, his talent and insights made Feng Jiaming realize that this young man was certainly not an ordinary person.

The position of manager was his blood and glory, and he couldn’t let Shen Yiming take it away from him.

With this in mind, Feng Jiaming took a deep breath, returned to his office, and immediately dialed a number, "Hello, Old Yang, I need you to do a background check on someone."

A deep voice came from the other end of the line, "Go ahead, who do you want to check?"

"Shen Yiming, 30 years old, senior engineer in medical devices in Country D, has served as CEO. I need his background details, the more detailed, the better."

"Alright, Mr. Feng," Old Yang responded, "I’ll get right on it."

Feng Jiaming hung up the phone with a look of unease on his face. In this fiercely competitive business kingdom, strong rivals were constantly emerging, and clearly, Shen Yiming was one of them.

Without taking a moment to rest, he immediately called the planning department.

"Supervisor Zhang, about this morning’s..."

"Mr. Feng, rest assured, in no more than two days, we’ve already started here."

"Send it to my email before nine o’clock tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing Feng Jiaming’s request, Supervisor Zhang replied with some anxiety, "Mr. Feng, could you possibly extend the deadline? Would two o’clock tomorrow afternoon be alright?"

Feng Jiaming pondered for a moment, then firmly said, "Supervisor Zhang, I understand that this is a bit rushed. You also attended the meeting. The chairman places great importance on this, and I believe you can finish it."

After hearing this, although Supervisor Zhang was somewhat uneasy, he immediately replied, "Mr. Feng, please rest assured, it will be sent to your email by nine."

"That would be good, thanks for your hard work."

...

Meanwhile, in another part of town, Chi Hai District.

Shen Yiming looked out at the scenery flashing by the car window and asked with a raised eyebrow, "Ling Xiao, what made you suddenly want to take me golfing?"

"You came all this way, plus several hours of meetings. It’s time to relax a little."

Shen Yiming’s lips curved into a skeptical smile. He knew Leng Lingxiao loved to exercise, but he was also aware that this did not include golfing.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Ling Xiao, you’re here to wait for that girl to get off work, aren’t you? Feeling empty and lonely? Tugging at your heart and can’t stop worrying, afraid she might be snatched away? No worries, man, it’s understandable!"

As he finished, Shen Yiming gave a mischievous smile and then began to rest with his eyes closed.

What on earth is this guy always thinking about?

Although Leng Lingxiao was reluctant to admit it, the fleeting smile on his lips said it all.

He indeed felt empty, and he indeed was worried!

They soon arrived at the golf course. The grass was a vivid green, the sunshine bright, and the air was filled with a fresh scent. Shen Yiming and Leng Lingxiao got out of the car and changed into the bespoke golf attire Leng Lingxiao had reserved earlier in the VIP room.

Before they started, Leng Lingxiao said to Shen Yiming with a meaningful tone, "Take it easy and play within your limits."

Shen Yiming smiled and nodded.

But he thought to himself, I’ve never beaten you before... but this time, just you wait.

As they stepped onto the course, caddies had already prepared their golf clubs and balls. Shen Yiming picked up a club, stood upright, and focused intently ahead.

"Ling Xiao, this time, you’d better go all out, no mercy," Shen Yiming said with a smile.

Leng Lingxiao nodded with a smile, "Alright, no holding back. Let’s see who can sink more balls."

"That’s it? The same old routine!"

"Wow, so confident!"

Shen Yiming laughed smugly, "Of course!"

As the match began, Leng Lingxiao and Shen Yiming took their first swings, sending the balls rolling toward the holes. The balls tumbled on the grass and eventually stopped near the holes. They clapped for each other, celebrating a successful first hole.

Over the next few holes, they each had their victories and defeats. Shen Yiming clearly improved his game, and Leng Lingxiao was not outdone.

As the match neared its end, the score remained neck and neck.

For the final hole, they stood by the tee, clubs in hand, expressions serious. Shen Yiming gripped his club tightly, took a deep breath, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes. He silently prayed that his swing would be successful.

If it went in, it would be a redemption.

As the club swung, the ball traced a beautiful arc through the air and finally dropped into the hole. The flag by the hole fluttered as the wind picked up, and Shen Yiming stood still, his heart racing, eyes glued to the flagpole.

"I got it!" Shen Yiming shouted excitedly, then turned to share a smile with Leng Lingxiao.

The game ended with Shen Yiming slightly ahead. Although they didn’t place any bets or have an audience, for Shen Yiming, it was a long-awaited victory.

As the two of them sipped tea and shared their insights, Feng Jiaming received an email.

The results of the investigation he wanted had come in.

Shen Yiming, 30 years old, born into Huang City’s financial aristocracy, had been a top student since childhood and had skipped grades multiple times.

During his studies in Country D, with exceptional talent and hard work, he quickly rose from an ordinary engineer to a senior engineer.

He could skillfully hand-draw with both hands.

Two years ago, at an international medical equipment exhibition, he met the well-known investor from Country D, Hans Detman, and was recruited by him due to his keen eye to serve as CEO of Mainz Company.

While serving as CEO, Shen Yiming successfully propelled the company’s business, rapidly developing it. The projects he led won multiple international awards, making the company highly reputable in its field.

A year ago, he resigned to care for his foreign girlfriend and subsequently lived in seclusion on an uninhabited island.

...

Having learned this information, Feng Jiaming felt even more the formidable capabilities of Shen Yiming. He realized that to maintain his position in the company, he needed to find a strategy quickly.

So, he pondered for a moment, picked up his phone again, and dialed another number.

"Hello, President Zhang, about the meeting this morning..."
