200 Yousre Overthinking I (1/2)

The Xi Hwa Organization had become a poisonous tumor for Han Chu. Even though he did not have a direct relationship with the company and would not have any interaction with such a problematic company, since Han Chu was dealing with an upscale market, there were a few of Han Chu's clients who had been targeted by the Xi Hwa Organization.

Even God would need some time to rest. No matter how experienced one might be, nothing was flawless. If one was really targeted and infiltrated—like what happened with An Zixuan—then even the strongest defense could not stop the leakage from happening.

How the trader's company had been targeted by the Xia Hwa Organization was not important, nor was how serious the condition was; the most important issue was how would they confirm the issue of the capital chain.

After Ye Shuang finished her dinner, the conversation between Han Chu and the trader also concluded, and they came up with the solution—to request a lawyer to start an investigation.

”As a headhunter, I have the right to request and ensure the safety of my talent's working environment. If there is some suspicion, then I have the right to request an investigation,” Han Chu explained. ”If the investigation clears the capital chain, there will be two outcomes: one, the client might be dissatisfied with your 'meddling', and two, the payment for the lawyer would be taken by you, but if the investigation comes up with problems, then the payment will be borne by the client.”

Of course, you're not going to open your wallet and pay. Ye Shuang mocked the man silently and pretended not to overhear the phone conversation between the two.

The problem faced by the trader was not really a big problem. Even though he was considered a part-timer, he was an employee who was protected by a contract. At least he had someone else to rely on, provided that someone else answered his cries for help.

If he was a full-time worker, then things would be a lot more complicated.

Your job was to focus on your work, and the boss is paying you good money, so who gave you to right to come up with these suspicions‽

Of course, outside of this particular case and viewed from a bigger picture, the whole situation had not been taken care of. After all, Han Chu could not guarantee that none of his clients would fall into the trap set up by the Xi Hwa Organization. The instability of the market meant that everyone involved would be at risk. None would survive.

The two discussed more details on the phone, like when the lawyers would be coming, what time the trader should inform his client of this, and how Han Chu should negotiate with the man so that he would not be chased out the door instantly.

By the time they finished the conversation, Ye Shuang had already finished her dinner. She was in the middle of calling the waiter to order another course and shamelessly pushed the empty plates slightly toward the trader. After hanging up, the trader was confused by the surprised look that the waiter was tossing his way. After the man left, the trader asked, ”How come the waiter here is acting so weird‽”

”Is that so?” Ye Shuang glanced at the man who had 'finished' two set meals and then said, ”I didn't notice that. Perhaps you're overthinking stuff.”

The trader scratched his chin and then gave up since he could not figure it out. ”Never mind, let's eat!”

…

After the new set meal was served, Ye Shuang finished almost at the same time as the trader. When the latter went to pay, he realized that there was an additional payment for an extra meal. After parting with Ye Shuang with a confused look, the trader returned to the room that he rented as his office while Ye Shuang found a presentable hotel to stay for the night.

Han Chu's call came the next morning, saying he had found the suitable lawyer in Chaohai. Since Ye Shuang was still in Chaohai and he could not get there in time, Han Chu left the job with Ye Shuang. Han Chu would call the trader's client on his phone and begin the negotiation. After he got the approval, Ye Shuang would visit the man's company with the lawyer.

Therefore, Ye Shuang finished her lunch with difficulty. According to her phone, the weather in Chaohai was a perfect thirty-degree summer day, but she had to work.

Self-introduction, explanation, and case report. The lawyer had already received a call from Han Chu, so he was not surprised by Ye Shuang's visit. The two went over the procedure, and after that, Ye Shuang had nothing else to do. She was to wait for Han Chu to finish the negotiation while the lawyer wandered off to do his preparation.

When the lawyer was sent into the trader's client company to start the investigation, it was already the fourth day that Ye Shuang had spent in her female form. The day before, she had even visited a kindergarten to ambush a child for a kiss. She almost gave the child's mother high blood pressure, thinking she was a human trafficker.

The time the clock ticked past midnight of the fourth day, it was time for Brother Shuang to reappear.
