Hai Mingzhu finally figured out the sequence of events – Li Yawei appeared to be Li Jixian’s half-sister with the same father but a different mother, who had returned to the country due to some trouble in Australia.
Li Jixian seemed not only refined but also pretty good towards his family members.
He wanted to help his aunt out with her problem, and it had occurred to him to use the Jintang security service, which had failed the selection process.
What could have happened to Li Yawei?
She’s just a high school girl, it must be some teenage rebellious phase.
When luck comes, you cannot tell which cloud brings rain!
Hai Mingzhu thought to herself, this task seems so easy, compared to the last one that could cost them their lives at any moment, it should be a lot easier.
Of course, whether or not to take on this business is mainly up to President Jin, who has already mentioned a company trip to Southeast Asia.
Hai Mingzhu hesitated a bit, she was quite looking forward to the pleasure of sunbathing on the beach.
“I discussed it with the employees just now.
Our cooperation with the Giant Corporation was not very pleasant.
I was planning to take a trip to Europe to unwind.” Jin Xin said with a troubled look on his face.
Hai Mingzhu noticed that the destination for their trip seemed to have suddenly risen by two levels.
A trip to Europe and a trip to Southeast Asia cost very different amounts of money!
Li Jixian smiled and, just like his older brother, took out a checkbook, wrote down an amount with a few strokes, tore it off, and handed it to Jin Xin.
“This is a 20% advance payment.
As long as President Jin’s firm can solve Yawei’s problem for Aunt Cui, I’ll promptly pay the rest.
Jin Xin took a quick glance at the amount on the check and a subtle smile game to his lips.
“The trip can be taken any time, but the client’s task can’t be delayed.
After all, our company’s motto is ‘Everyone is for me, and I am for everyone’.”
“Good motto.” Li Jixian stood up and extended his hand, indicating that the deal had been officially reached and the conversation was over.
“As for the rest, I’ll leave it to President Jin and Advisor Shen.”
Coming down from the building to the square, Hai Mingzhu finally held back and asked, “President Jin, how much is a 20% advance payment?” She had not seen clearly the number on the check and quite naturally her curiosity was piqued.
She was not the one receiving the money, but just like admiring a menu without getting to taste the dishes, it felt good.
“Not much, much less than the last assignment.” Jin Xin sighed, “It’s hard being the boss.”
“Of course it’s going to be less, this is just a simple task.” Hai Mingzhu wasn’t clueless.
Jin Xin fiddled with his phone in silence, and a “whirl” sound indicated notifications on Hai Mingzhu’s cellphone.
She checked it and excitedly said, “Twenty thousand?
It’s transferred to me?
President Jin, you are a truly man.”
Jin Xin felt like his gender was not determined by genes, but by Hai Mingzhu.
“This must be a bonus from the last task, right?” Hai Mingzhu quickly sobered up from her thrill, trying to negotiate for more bonus money.
Jin Xin’s face fell, “This is the advance payment for Li Yawei’s task this time.
Go buy some nice clothes.
You must be not much older than Li Yawei, both of you are youngsters, you should be able to get close to Li Yawei.”
Hai Mingzhu pouted her lips, “President Jin, you’re not a generous man.”
Looking at Hai Mingzhu finally leaving cheerfully, Jin Xin stared at her receding figure and said, “She seems to be quite nice, don’t you agree?”
Shen Yue gave a faint smile, “It’s up to the president.”
Jin Xin took out a bank card and handed it to Shen Yue, “There’s five hundred thousand on it, the password is the time when we met.
Take it, go buy some new clothes, don’t always wear the same outfit until it’s worn out.”
“How about Manager Song?” Shen Yue didn’t take the card, “You said you would go check on him.”
“I went to see in the morning.
Manager Song’s wife has regained consciousness, she should be able to leave the ICU soon.” Jin Xin sighed as he spoke, “Who could have thought that Manager Song would have another issue.
I asked the doctor, and it’s not looking good.
If thing go well, Manager Song might recover in a few days.
If not, it’s going to be tough.”
“They….” Shen Yue hesitated, which was rare.
Jin knew what Shen Yue wanted to say, and added, “Luckily, the death contract initially covered a casualty insurance, it takes effect immediately, so the insurance company will cover Manager Song’s hospital expenses.
You can’t deny it that, though Giant Corporation seems cold-hearted, everything is perfectly arranged.
Manager Song’s wife has company insurance, I transferred some money into her medical account, there should not be any big issues.”
Shen Yue sighed with relief, “That’s good.”
“I know you look cold, but you’re warmer at heart than anyone.
Don’t worry, I will arrange everything, and you don’t need to worry about all the miscellaneous issues.” Jin Xin forcefully put the bank card into Shen Yue’s hands, “Not only that we made a profit, it was quite a significant one.
I told you before, as long as you join the Jintang Company, the company will be half yours.
This is your dividend.
When our company grows bigger in the future, I will not forget about my brothers like some people.”
Shen Yue held the bank card in his hand, “You really want to accept the next deal.”
Jin Xin remained silent.
“The deal didn’t go through, but you seemed calmer than I expected.” Shen Yue slowly said, “And when you met Li Jixian, you didn’t seem too surprised.”
“I’ll explain to you later.” Jin Xin cut off Shen Yue’s next words.
Shen Yue secretly thought, Jin Xin seemed careless, but he was actually very meticulous.
The deal not going through, and other twists appearing, were those all within his calculations?
Shen Yue had this concern, and seeing that Jin Xin didn’t want to discuss it, he respected Jin Xin’s choice.
“The Giant Building is haunted!” he suddenly said, and the previously warm atmosphere turned a bit cold.
“Did you find something?” Jin Xin was intrigued.
“There’s a strong electromagnetic conversion on the thirteenth floor.” Shen Yue frowned and said, “During the time when we were trapped on the thirteenth floor, that kind of electromagnetic conversion never stopped.”
“How could it be that?” Jin Xin wondered.
Shen Yue shook his head, “I don’t know.
The place where we walked appeared winding, but according to my calculations, it was only one quarter of the area of the thirteenth floor.
We didn’t approach the center of the thirteenth floor, which must be where the core of the electromagnetic conversion is.”
Jin Xin believed Shen Yue’s professional judgment, and asked confusedly, “What could be there?”
“I don’t know, we didn’t get a chance to access that area, and we don’t have the proper means to explore it.” Shen Yue thought and said, “There’s a metal ring rotating around the perimeter of the thirteenth floor.
It’s like a circular wall.
The metal ring is thick, at least two meters.”
“You estimated the thickness based on the space that the metal ringed wall still needs to build an elevator room, which needs to be connected to the real elevator?” Seeing Shen Yue nodding, Jin Xin felt more and more strange because he had never seen such a peculiar building floor – they could suddenly lose their way on the thirteenth floor because the door was rotating.
“Yes.
Because the metal ring always rotates, we occasionally hear low rumbling sounds, and the way back is elusive.” Shen Yue analyzed, “The building must have been designed in this way when it was built.
I am afraid that only the designer Goring and Giant Li would know the truth.”
Glancing at Jin Xin, Shen Yue asked suspiciously.
“Did you come for this?”
“No!” Jin Xin denied it immediately.
Shen Yue knew Jin Xin was not lying, and he breathed a sigh of relief, because he vaguely felt in his heart that if Jin Xin had come for the thirteenth floor, the trouble they were facing might be even greater than the crisis of the Li family!
