Chapter 349 (2/2)

“Who is this?”

“He’s Tang Xiu, my younger cousin.” Said Tang Wei promptly.

Xue Jie looked surprised. She carefully observed Tang Xiu before showing a trace of a smile, “I heard that the Tang Family had found their missing child. Anyhow, I didn’t expect you would come to Guan City, though. How do you do, Tang Xiu? I’m Xue Jie, the General Manager of the Starlight Group. You can call me Aunt Xue.”

“Brother, Auntie Xue is the sister of Uncle Tang Dong’s wife.” Said Tang Wei quickly.

Tang Xiu suddenly understood and called out, “How do you do, Auntie Xue!”

Nodding with a smile, Xue Jie then said, “Let’s go! Your big uncle is currently waiting in Red Maple Villa Complex!”

“Alright!” Tang Wei nodded.

More than twenty minutes later, as the car arrived at Red Maple Villa Complex, Xue Jie’s mobile phone rang. After she accepted the call and chatted with the caller, her face immediately turned grim.

Waiting until Xue Jie hang up the phone, Tang Wei then asked quickly, “Something happened, Auntie Xue?”

“The deputy director of our Starlight Group’s Finance Department has been seized by some people.” Xue Jie nodded and said, “It’s an intentional provocation from the other party, causing the deputy director to push the other party. And then… the other party acted like they were seriously injured and demanded compensation from the deputy director’s family.”

“Is this the Yao Family’s doing?” asked Tang Wei indignantly.

“The Yao Family is surely related to this.” Xue Jie said, “After all, at this juncture, only the Xue, Sun and Yang Families are the ones who will direct people to do so. Just now your big uncle told me to send some people to rescue this deputy director by any means necessary. The deputy director of our Starlight Group’s Finance Department knew the company accounts, and if the Yao Family gets our business secrets, it will be very detrimental to us.”

“Where did that Finance Department’s deputy director got caught?” asked Tang Xiu quickly.

“Changbu Town, the Earth Cabinet Factory.” Said Xue Jie.

“Shall we change our destination to Changbu Town?” asked Tang Wei.

“We’re going there now.” Xue Jie nodded and said, “We must rescue that deputy director in the shortest possible time. Additionally, your big uncle has also sent a group to Changbu Town as well.”

“Is the source reliable? Have our people looked into the information? We had better…” Tang Xiu suddenly asked.

Xue Jie looked at Tang Xiu and said, “The people who seized the deputy director told his family to deliver the compensation money there.”

“If my guess is correct, I’m afraid this is a trap.” Tang Xiu shook his head and said, “Nevertheless, it’s an open trap. We know that it’s a trap, but we still have no choice but to jump into into. I’m sure that the deputy director is not in Changbu Town’s Earth Cabinet Factory.”

“Care to tell the reason?” Xue Jie slightly creased her brows and asked.

“Since the other party wants to get the Starlight Group’s financial information from the Finance Department’s deputy director, they won’t let us save him that easily. Nevertheless, they clearly knew that we’d save him. So, even if he is bait, they won’t rashly take any risks like leaving the deputy director there. Hence, they sent us a message. That’s enough to lead us.”

Xue Jie squinted her eyes. Her being able to control the entire Starlight Group was due to her extraordinary wisdom and ability, to begin with. Thus, she had actually already thought of this. Only, she had no other way but to send people to Changbu Town.

“Tang Xiu, since you can infer this kind of possibility. Then, do you have any way around it?”

“It’s very simple. We must still go to Changbu Town. However, we must do things carefully.” Tang Xiu said, “We must first inquire about the internal situation of the Earth Cabinet Factory, and then devise a plan. Moreover, we have to mobilize all of our power in Guangyang to find the place where the deputy director is being held.” Said Tang Xiu.

Xue Jie smiled forced a smile and said, “Our intelligence network in Guangyang has been nearly cut off. Although we still have a lot of manpower, without knowing the complete picture, we’ll be just like headless flies scattered about, no?”

Tang Xiu was silent for a moment before he took out his mobile and dialed a cell phone number.

“Who am I speaking with?” a low and deep voice came out from the phone.

“I’m Tang Xiu. Gu Xiaoxue gave me your number.” Said Tang Xiu.

The other party quickly replied with an excited tone, “Gu Xiaoxue? The Little Boss of the Everlasting Feast Hall?”

“Yes!”

“Ah, I see. So you’re the new boss of the Everlasting Feast Hall, Mr. Tang, right?”

“Correct, it’s me!”

“… For you to look for me… you have a command for me?”

Tang Xiu asked, “Does your family have a intelligence network in Guangyang? I’ll have to trouble you to help me investigate something!”

“Which city?”

“Guan City!”

“I have a network there!”

“I’ll text you about the person I need you to investigate later. The man was captured, and the other party may have relations with the Sun and Yang Families. Please do bear mind that you have to keep your tracks hidden in this investigation.”

“Alright. I’ll rush to Guan City immediately. Wait for the news.”

“You don’t have act personally. It’s fine for you to send out the order. I’m afraid that I still have some things that might inconvenience you later.”

“No problem. It’s not a hassle at all. This is what we should do!”
