Chapter 630 Little information is enough (1/2)
Time rewind back to the moment Yue Ling and Liu Shan step foot inside Fang Fabrics. In the distance away, Lu Tian had returned to Lu Corps after learning the news about Grandfather Ji.
*Ding
The private elevator door slides open at the highest floor level of Lu Corps. Lu Tian's almighty figures exits and head in the direction of his office.
”Boss! Wait for me!”
His hand had only touched the door handle when Xu Long's voice calls out to him from behind. He doesn't turn to look at the man but opens the door and enters.
However, despite doing this, he didn't close the door and left it ajar for his assistant.
”Speak.”
His deep and domineering voice sounds when he heard Xu Long's footsteps enter the room. He strides to his desk and removes his coat and suit jacket before sitting down.
Xu Long had only closed the door to the room before hearing his boss's words. In one hand was a file folder as he raise his other hand to scratch the side of his head.
”How did it go with Grandfather Ji? Is everything alright on his side?”
He had been curious and worried about the old man. Even he was surprised to see his boss rush out of the company. After waiting long enough, he wanted to call and ask. However, he was also hesitant. A part of him wanted to know, but the other part him was afraid of knowing.
Lu Tian sat behind his desk and tilt his head back to rest his mind. When he drove from Imperial Military Hospital to Lu Corps, his mind was flooded with millions of thoughts. Especially towards his wife.
He inhales sharply and looks at his assistant. Able to read the man's expression, he sits up and shakes his head.
”It's nothing. Grandfather Ji wasn't feeling well, so Uncle Zhong took him to the hospital.”
He could only partially lie to his assistant. He had already given his word to the old man, so he cannot tell anyone. Even if the person is his most trusty subordinate. As it is not his place to do so.
Xu Long narrow his eyes trying to read his boss. As Lu Tian's assistant of many years, he could sense that the aloof man was acting a little suspicious.
However, he quickly shakes the thought away as he knows the man will never lie about anything. Or so he thought.
Lu Tian doesn't want to speak of the topic anymore and glance down at the file folder in Xu Long's hand.
It was the same folder the assistant had brought in before he left to find Grandfather Ji.
”Report.”
Hearing that one word, Xu Long comes to his senses again and looks down at the folder. He takes a few big steps forward until he stood in front of the desk that separated him and his boss.
”I did what you asked me to do and gathered the information on Chief Kim's people.”
He held the folder out with both hands and place it down on the desk. Taking a small step back, he purse his lip then looks at Lu Tian.
”However, it's quite abnormal. There was only a small amount of details I was able to find.”
His brows scrunch together, and he looks down at the folder again. His boss had ordered him to look into Chief Kim's three men from City Z, but everything he dug up was like trying to solve a mystery puzzle that had a missing piece.
”It's like, whoever they are, Chief Kim doesn't want anyone to know about them and has all their files locked away.”
He spoke his thoughts and looks up back Lu Tian.
”I was still able to get my hands on a few things.”
Listening to Xu Long's report, Lu Tian also furrow his brows. He stares down at the file folder on his desk for a long second then reach for it.
