Chapter 36 - Someone He Trusted
CHAPTER 36
Meanwhile Ye Cheng had got settled with Li Jing's laptop and gone through some files again.
As the meeting went on, Ye Cheng got tad bits of what was going on with Han Qing Qing's help. By the time everything was through, he got a good grasp of the situation.
Although he didn't understand why Hao Huizhong would behave that way, from the looks of things, it looked like he was pushing through with the other new project blindly.
Ye Cheng could not help his mind wandering because of it. This was someone he trusted so much with his company and life.
One could imagine the shock he got when he found out that Hao Huizhong would do something like this.
There was no way he would say he did not know something bad like this would happen in the long run that would cause the company to lose so much money.
Ye Cheng quickly snapped out of his daze as a thought came into his mind. 'Has he checked carefully with the financial department? If he did, he would know something is amiss.'
Immediately he sent a message to Han Qing Qing via his email. "Check the financial records concerning the proposal and do a ground check of all financial records in the company's stock and businesses and get back to me."
"Yes sir, but it would take some time, perhaps days to go through everything alone," Han Qing Qing replied his email.
"Send them to me as well, I would start reviewing them from the oldest files while you start from the newest, got it?"
And he hit the send icon and sent the email. His fingers tapped lazily on the laptop as he awaited her reply.
Immediately his notification hit up, notifying him of her reply. He opened the mail and read out loud. "Okay sir, would get them and send to your private email."
"Good. Happy you haven't dulled out yet, Qing Qing," he teased and ended their small business chat as his lips curved up slightly into a small smile.
Han Qing Qing smiled at her screen upon reading his praise. She knew what he meant. He had said that because she knew better than to send such files to his work email, considering they were doing something secretive.
"I would check in later in the afternoon by 2 pm. Do not call the number that I used in calling you before."
He quickly sent that mail as soon as he recalled that he did not hide Li Jing's number when he called with it yesterday and he did not specify the time for his secretary to check in on him since she couldn't reach him on call.
"Got it, sir."
Without wasting any more time, he went to her history and cleared all his recent tabs and anything relating to what he used her laptop for before closing the laptop and resting his head on the headboard.
It had been hours he was operating on her system and now his eyes burned since it took some days before he looked at a laptop screen for that long.
At the same time, his stomach grumbled, begging for attention to be filled up.
It was not until now that Ye Cheng understood how hungry one could be just sitting at home and going through so much files.
Even partially attending the meeting burned him out. He didn't know if it was due to his injuries or it was just the fact that he was not at work, but his tiredness ate away at him.
He checked the time and saw that it was already noon. He sighed and slowly got up from the bed, keeping the laptop by his side.
Not bothering to arrange the bed, he made his way to the door and pulled it open, then went to the kitchen.
Opening the refrigerator, he found a meal pack carefully wrapped with a transparent nylon with a small not tapped to the side.
He picked it up and his eyes found some a milk container and an two apples on a small bowl inside.
He averted his gaze to the small note on the food...
"Hey, his is for you. Same with the apples and milk. Don't be bored, ok!" After her note she drew a 😊 smiley face at the back, causing a small smile to break out on his lips.
One after the other he picked them and closed the refrigerator. As he moved and flexed his muscles, he occasionally felt pain in the place where he was stabbed and would often wince from it.
By the time he was done heating the food up in the microwave, he got himself seated in the dinning to eat and put on the television to listen to the news.
He was hoping to get something about the explosion at the harbor, but after listening to the stations that talked about it, everyone came up with the same conclusion. It was caused by a fuel leakage and other rubbish their brains could cook up.
Through the whole show, he saw his car when the camera turned around for a quick show of the vicinity. It still looked untouched.
He had expected it would not be there any longer, hoping Hao Huizhong had collected it when he came to search for him and Bai Qing Mei. Apparently, that wasn't the case.
Frustrated, he went to switch off the television and resume his meal which was now cold. He somehow managed to finish the whole thing as he was getting tired of going to use the microwave again.
Besides, he did not want to leave the food untouched, he knew it would break Li Jing's heart and considering her hospitality since then, it was the least he could do.
Soon, Ye Cheng started thinking of what he could do for her when he got back to himself as the CEO of Dream Star Corporations.
He decided to do a quick scan of the whole house and check out for things that she might be lacking.
