Chapter 272 - He was in Deep Trouble (2/2)

”You should stay here and continue to discuss with Grandfather,” Li Qin Yao said. She stood up and stopped Zhang Yu Han before he walked out the door. ”I'll go and help you get them. Just tell me where did you put the documents.”

Zhang Yu Han glanced at his grandfather and nodded. ”Alright. The file folder should be on the top shelf. You should be able to see it, or else, you can ask Secretary Tian to look for it.”

Li Qin Yao nodded and left once Zhang Yu Han told her what she should look for.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yu Han continued his conversation with his grandfather. After waiting for a while, Zhang Yu Han began to realize that he had put the blue velvet box on top of his drawer. Fearing that his wife was going to find out about the ring, Zhang Yu Han quickly stood up and excused himself.

However, as he reached the door, Zhang Yu Han found his wife stood at his grandfather's office with a confused look on her face.

”What's wrong?” His gaze moved at the documents on her hand. However, he then began to notice that there was an additional thin pocket folder in her hand. A frown appeared on his face when he thought that the folder looked somewhat familiar, but at this time, he could not figure out what was in that folder.

”Zhang Yu Han,” Li Qin Yao held the folder high. ”When I pulled out the file folder from your shelf, this pocket folder accidentally fall over as well along with the contents.”

”Oh?” Zhang Yu Han could not help but feel that there was a trace of anger in his wife's tone. ”What was in there?”

”Why were you running a background check on me?” Li Qin Yao asked. She pulled out the contents and showed him what was written inside.

Of course, Zhang Yu Han immediately recognized the paper. Back then, when he had found her again, Zhang Yu Han had asked his friend, Wei Jun Hao to look for her. And he had kept that information in his office.

”Previously, you have told me that you have investigated me because you wanted to find out what kind of person I am before you collaborate with QL Group,” Li Qin Yao said. ”But this one,” she pointed at the printed date at the bottom of the paper. ”According to this paper, you have been investigating me before we were close. This was even before I decided to take that project in B City.”

Sensing her anger, Zhang Yu Han realized that he was in deep trouble.

”Why did you run a background check on me?” Li Qin Yao repeated.

Of course, Zhang Jing, who was also in the room heard the couple's conversations. He had wanted to intervene, but sensing his granddaughter-in-laws anger, Zhang Jing was frightened.

It was the first time that he had seen that expression on his adorable granddaughter-in-law.

It was at this moment that Zhang Jing recalled that he had asked Assistant Huo to run a background check on her as well. He then made a mental note to let his ȧssistant destroy that file before Li Qin Yao accidentally stumble upon that document as well.

”I can explain,” Zhang Yu Han said quickly.

Li Qin Yao crossed her arms across her ċhėst. ”Explain.”
