Chapter 146: Suyang’s analysis (2/2)

Wait! What am I hoping for? Isn’t it good that he’s well behaved? This is for the best! Stay like this! Then, we can both get through this night in harmony.

Time slowly passed by, but rather than feeling sleepier, I felt more and more awake. I reached out my hand to take a look at my cell phone. It was already 11pm.

I honestly couldn’t sleep. So, I began to poke Suyang’s still back with my finger. “Are you asleep?”

“Mm hm…” Suyang sounded weak and helpless.

“Liar. If you were asleep, you wouldn’t have responded. If you’re still awake, turn around and let’s chat!” I was talking to Suyang’s back. He was topless.

“What do you want to talk about?” Suyang didn’t turn around. He was still using his weak voice.

“I want to know how you entered the company. I’m talking about the Xu clan corporation.”

“I already told you. Granny knows someone from the company. That’s how I got in.”

“Don’t tell me the person your granny knows is the current director, Yao Youfan?”

“Yes…”

The current director?! Really?I instantly sat upright and was practically climbing on Suyang. My hands were tightly holding onto his strong arms. I could see his eyes were tightly shut.

I was a bit hysterical. “Really? Yao Youfan and Grandmother Meng knew each other? Oh God!”

Suyang suddenly opened his eyes but didn’t respond to my question. Before I could react, he seized my arm and wrist and flipped me over. He pressed me down and panted, “Can’t you tell I’ve been trying to suppress myself this whole time? Stop trying to seduce me! Or else I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to hold back!”

Suyang’s face looked a bit pink, but I could care less, “Are you very close to Yao Youfan?”

“Why are you asking about her? Could she be the reason why you entered the company?”

As expected, Suyang figured it out with one guess.

“I can’t tell you that. It’s confidential.” It wasn’t my fault. Before conducting any business, a confidential agreement was always signed between parties.

Suyang went back to his original side and laid flat on the bed. “If you won’t tell me the reason why you entered the company, I’m not going to tell you anything about Yao Youfan either.”

“Don’t be so stingy!” I whined.

“No!”

“How about this…” I suddenly thought of a great idea. I wasn’t sure if it would work though, “Due to some reasons, I can’t tell you my purpose for being here. But you could guess! Make use of your super great imagination you had when you were an author. When the timing is right, I’ll give you hints.”

“Hm...let me think about it.” Suyang gazed at me with his lips pursed. “You definitely didn’t enter the company based on your abilities. Someone of authority must have somehow gotten you in. As for why you’re here, it’s because it’s to make your job easier. You must need access to something. As for why you’re arranged into my department, the person knows that my sudden appearance has something to do with Yao Youfan. This means that the person behind you probably wants you to go through me to attack or accuse or find out something about Yao Youfan?”

Suyang was going through one layer at a time. “Based on the recent news, the person who would be interested in going against Yao Youfan would probably be related to the Chairman Xu’s will. The allocation of his estate was quite strange. So… the person behind you is Xu Chuqiao?”

I nodded and clapped. “I didn’t even have to give you any hints! My dear, you’re a genius!”

“Haha, just a bit. How did Xu Chuqiao find you?”

“I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Lin Yixin of the Ghost Firm. Our firm specializes in all sorts of cheating, tracking, investigation sort of affairs.”

“Ghost Firm?” Suyang instantly shivered. Then, he gave me a look of disdain. “Are you trying to get me to be your client in bed?”

“Ah! No! Don’t misunderstand!”

“Ghost Firm? What sort of name is that?” Suyang seemed to be confused by the name of my firm.

“Ghost? It’s the literal meaning.”

“...Ah! I get it!”

“Anyhow, now that you've guessed most of it, you know my purpose for being here. Can you help me out?” I leaned against Suyang’s arm and began to blink my sparkling eyes at him.

“Aren’t you an investigative firm? Investigating shouldn’t be a difficult task for you. Why must I help you?” Suyang continued to act cool and collected.

I shook my head at Suyang. “But it would be faster with your help... Time is money! Can’t you help me? You can’t help me at all?”
