140. Come Over Early Today

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

The CEO’s office, Chu Group

At the entrance…

“Nancy, go in if you want to. What standing here like a wood? Being an anthomaniac?”

Lin Tianchen’s voice successfully startled the executive secretary, Nancy, who had been standing at Chu Xiao’s office for at least ten minutes.

However, the next second, Nancy turned around and looked at Lin Tianchen with a pleading gaze.

“Mr. Lin…” Nancy called wearing a pitiful expression.

Even though she had always been fantasizing about their president before, she swore that this time, it was really not because of this that she stood at the door and didn’t go in.

The main reason was because she was scared…

Today, their president came nearly at noon.

At that time, they had always thought that the president was in a good mood.

However, in the afternoon, she did not know what had happened. Their president’s expression turned cloudy. No, she should say that his face turned stormy!

Even though before their president’s storm, it was usually very quiet.

However, it was still quite scary…

With just a few steps away, she doubted whether she’d be carried out if she went in now.

Uh…so scared.

“Look at you, are you women all so timid?” Lin Tianchen glanced at Nancy and said with disdain.

However, after that, Lin Tianchen looked into Chu Xiao’s office as well.

There was a hint of doubt and worry in those eyes.

Indeed, now, even a stranger could tell that their boss was in a bad mood.

In fact, their boss was not a moody person. No, to be more precise, since the day he started to follow the boss, he had never seen any emotions other than calm and indifferent. Even if he did, it would never be so obvious. But now even Nancy could tell…

But…why was that?

“Right? Mr. Ling, I definitely didn’t deliberately delay my job…” Seeing Lin Tianchen frown, Nancy quickly explained.

“Alright, tell me, what are you going to report?” Lin Tianchen said impatiently.

“Hehe, here are three plans for the next season, which need the president to sign,” Nancy smiled gingerly and said.

“Give them to me. Go back to work,” Lin Tianchen took the documents from Nancy and walked into Chu Xiao’s office.

Actually, he also didn’t want to go in at this time, but what choice did he have? He also felt helpless.

“Boss?” Lin Tianchen knocked on the door and walked over to Chu Xiao’s desk. He called him carefully, not missing any slight expression change on Chu Xiao’s face.

“Speak,” Chu Xiao said coldly, not even lifting his eyes.

“Uh…oh, this is the plans for the next season from the planning department. Please take a look, boss.”

“Mm, put them there.”

“Anything else?” Seeing that Lin Tianchen didn’t mean to leave, Chu Xiao finally raised his eyes and glanced at him.

“Uh…Boss, the few bottles of wine you asked me to get for you last night, I put them in the trunk,” Lin Tianchen said.

Suddenly, an idea flashed across his mind.

The boss got in a bad mood so suddenly. Could it be because of Ling Fan?

After all, before Ling Fan, that is, the previous ‘Fan Ming’ appeared, the boss had always been that boss they knew. It was only when it came to Ling Fan that the boss became….so…moody.

Besides, today was Friday. Based on what had happened in the past few weeks, Ling Fan should have already appeared under their building.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianchen suddenly thought he found the reason!

But…

To seek confirmation?

Come on! He hadn’t been sick of living yet…

Suddenly, Lin Tianchen felt like he shouldn’t even mention the matter of alcohol…

The boss asked him to take the alcohol for him yesterday. It was quite possible that he was preparing to have a candlelight dinner with Ling Fan today, and then…making some drunken mistake…

But now, it felt clearly wrong. Could the two of them have a fight or what?

Now, something was indeed not right.

To be precise, Chu Xiao’s current emotional fluctuations were really because of Ling Fan.

However, not a fight.

He couldn’t even get through Ling Fan’s phone, so how could he quarrel with him?!

Originally, he sent Ling Fan a text this morning.

According to previous experience, that little bastard would reply to him 10 minutes late at most, but today, he didn’t even reply to him till now!

Then he called.

Couldn’t get through!

At that thought, Chu Xiao’s eyes darkened again.

“Well…Boss, if there’s nothing else, I gotta go…” Lin Tianchen said softly. Mainly because he didn’t want to stay here as cannon fodder!

Unfortunately, Lin Tianchen’s wish was doomed to fail.

“Wait!” Chu Xiao suddenly said. After a pause, he asked, “Did something happen to the Qing Gang recently?”

Unconsciously, Chu Xiao felt that Ling Fan’s sudden ‘disappearance’ should be related to the matter of the Qing Gang.

What’s more, the phone call yesterday was a little weird…

“Uh…no, I guess,” Lin Tianchen said with uncertainty.

When Chu Xiao asked this question, he finally confirmed that the boss’ current emotional fluctuation was 100% because of Ling Fan!

However…he really didn’t know things about the Qing Gang.

After Chen Feng’s thing, he learned from those people under Chen Feng that Chen Feng seemed to have been investigating Ling Fan and Qing Gang.

However, the boss had said clearly not to do that.

Was Chen Feng like courting death by doing that?

In order not to follow in Chen Feng’s steps and continue enjoying his debauchery, after taking over Chen Feng’s people, Lin Tianchen wisely asked those people who investigated Ling Fan and Qing Gang to withdraw.

But…Why did the boss want to know about the Qing Gang again?

Of course, Lin Tianchen didn’t dare ask.

“Go investigate it, I want the results within today,” Chu Xiao said coldly, with a commanding tone. At the same time, if one listened carefully, one could tell that Chu Xiao’s low voice contained a hint of impatience and worry…

On the other side, in a warehouse rented by the Qing Gang in advance.

Ling Fan, who didn’t know all that, had a bad expression on his face.

“Boss, is there a problem?” Lu Qi asked cautiously as he saw Ling Fan’s gloomy face.

“Nothing,” Ling Fan replied. After a pause, he asked, “How’s your side?”

“Those people from the Ye Family have been shaken off, so they shouldn’t be able to find this place in a short time. Brother Wu called and said that people from Ye Family went to our gang, but didn’t find anything, so they left.”

“Mm,” Ling Fan nodded.

Actually, that was also within his expectations.

However, if he really thought that the Ye family had given up so easily, he would have lived this life in vain.

“Leave that batch of munitions there for now. As for that batch of stones…have those technicians arrives?”

“They have picked them up.”

“Bring them and the tools directly to the warehouse, let them work there, keep the best piece for me, and handle the rest in two days. As for the buyers, Zhou Xin has contacted them. You only need to bring things over.”

“Okay, got it, boss, I’ll go and arrange it now,” Lu Qi said, turning to leave.

According to the boss’ meaning, although they got those things, next…time was still very tight.

“What time is it?” Ling Fan asked in a low voice as he leaned against the chair.

In order not to let the Ye family detect the signal of their phones, Ling Fan, Leopard and others’ phones were kept in a shielded box.

“Nearly eleven o’clock…” Leopard looked at the watch and said.

“Almost time…” Ling Fan said as he stood up.

Actually, what he wanted to say was it was late already…

Hearing Ling Fan’s words, not only Leopard, but also everyone who had been tensed up all felt relieved.

“Motherf*cker! Finally, this is over! After the whole day, I am so damn exhausted.” Leopard finally threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stood up.

“Come on guys, let’s go. We are going to Great Tang (a bathing center) and book a luxurious pool! I’m on the house!” Leopard said loudly.

“Haha, Leopard, you said that. You’re on the house. Don’t let the boss pay finally!” A few other people teased, obviously very excited.

“Damn! Are you looking down on me! I’m gonna show you how generous I am today!” said Leopard. Come on! He was someone who could afford ten Maserati at a time. Would he care about this small money?

“Got ti! Ling Fan, let’s go. You got to be my witness and see if I’m the one who pays!” Leopard said as he patted Ling Fan.

However, seeing the familiar expression on Ling Fan’s face, Leopard immediately realized he would either be absent or run away halfway like the last few times.

“Holy sh*t! You’re not going, right?”

“I really got something later. Sorry to trouble you to entertain them,” Ling Fan said apologetically.

His tone was gentle, but his attitude was…rather resolute.

As he spoke, Ling Fan took out his phone from the shielded box.

Ling Fan frowned when he saw the time on the screen.

Then…when he saw a text message popping up, Ling Fan’s hand suddenly tightened…

–Come over early today.

Damn it! Chu Xiao actually sent him a text.

So…Chu Xiao meant to ask him to go to Chu Group early yesterday for his last sentence?

“Kid, what’s wrong?” Seemingly noticing that Ling Fan’s expression was not right, Leopard walked over and asked.

“It’s alright.” Ling Fan coughed lightly and said, “A private matter.”

“Leopard, lend me your car keys.”

The next second, before Leopard could react, Ling Fan had already taken the keys of Leopard’s aged keep from his belt buckle.

“Oh, okay…” After ten seconds, Leopard finally reacted.

However, at this time, Ling Fan was already nowhere to find.

“Wait, that’s not right…can your boss drive?” Leopard suddenly looked at Cat and others, asking.

“Uh…I don’t know,” they had never seen the boss driving.

“Damn! Kid, wait, do you have a driver’s license?! Bah…No, have you come of fu*king age?!”
