Chapter 267 Someone is following us again
So many things have happened lately that Mu Xiaoyu almost forgot about renewing her contract with SQ.
Only two or three days after Liang Qiao's incident, people from SQ contacted Mu Xiaoyu again, asking her to go to SQ to sign a contract.
If Mu Xiaoyu had received this news before, she might have gone without hesitation. But now that they suspect Liang Qiao is Mu Pengzheng, they are naturally worried that Liang Qiao might do something detrimental to her.
So after receiving the call from SQ, Mu Xiaoyu hesitated for a long time, but still arranged to sign the contract with the people from SQ at a coffee shop near SQ.
It was a public place, and there were people secretly protecting Mu Xiaoyu's safety. If Liang Qiao wanted to harm Mu Xiaoyu, she wouldn't have been so blatant.
Mu Xiaoyu arrived more than half an hour early, and the person from SQ who was in charge of signing the contract had not yet arrived when she arrived.
Before coming, Mu Xiaoyu had someone carefully check the surrounding environment. After finding nothing unusual, she realized she had entered the coffee shop.
It was around 10 a.m., past the morning rush hour, so there weren't many people in the coffee shop. The number of people coming and going was quite noticeable in the relatively empty coffee shop.
Mu Xiaoyu sat in the corner of the coffee shop, observing the people coming and going.
Just then, something seemed to happen to Mu Xiaoyu, and her expression suddenly became somewhat puzzled.
Following Mu Xiaoyu's gaze, a middle-aged man, around forty years old, walked into the coffee shop. The man was tall and handsome. However, more importantly, the man's appearance was remarkably similar to Liang Qiao's.
This man was the one Mu Xiaoyu met at SQ that day, the man who looked remarkably like Liang Qiao.
When Mu Xiaoyu first met this man, she didn't feel much. But now, after suspecting Liang Qiao's identity, she felt a strange, inexplicable feeling whenever she saw him again.
Before she could even react, she had already run up to the man and stopped him.
"Is there something you need, miss?"
The man's voice was completely different from Liang Qiao's, but he spoke in a gentle and pleasant tone, which made him easy to like. He showed no impatience whatsoever with Mu Xiaoyu's sudden actions.
Liang Qiao was like that back then, but Mu Xiaoyu subconsciously felt something was off about him, so she didn't have any good feelings towards him. But this man in front of her felt like a genuinely well-mannered person, not someone who was pretending.
Mu Xiaoyu observed the man discreetly for a few seconds before finally asking, "Sir, are you... surnamed Liang?"
The man was taken aback for a moment, but after a few seconds, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he replied, "My surname is indeed Liang. Do you know me, Miss?"
Hearing the man's words, Mu Xiaoyu had a rough idea of what was going on. She looked at the man in front of her with some complicated feelings, hesitated for a moment, and then said somewhat abruptly, "Sir, would you mind giving me your contact information? I have something very important to tell you."
Seemingly afraid the man wouldn't believe her, Mu Xiaoyu quickly added, "This matter concerns your family; it's very important."
The man stared at Mu Xiaoyu for a moment after hearing this, and finally nodded in agreement.
Originally, Mu Xiaoyu could have talked to the man directly in the coffee shop, but considering that the person SQ sent this time was very likely Liang Qiao's man, she gave up the idea.
Shortly after the man left, people from SQ arrived.
The person in charge of signing Mu Xiaoyu this time was not Li Zhe from last time, but someone who had previously worked at SQ, whom Mu Xiaoyu knew.
Moreover, Mu Xiaoyu carefully examined the contract that was brought this time, and apart from some minor changes, there were basically no other changes.
So after the two met, they completed all the signings in no time.
"Is Li Zhe, the one who was in charge of signing contracts before, still with SQ?"
After signing the contract, Mu Xiaoyu casually asked...
The person in front of him paused for a moment, as if trying to recall who Li Zhe was, as Mu Xiaoyu had mentioned. After a while, he said with a look of sudden realization, "No, the person who signed the contract last time was only responsible for you. After your outburst last time, he left a long time ago. Besides, we've only met him once. If you hadn't mentioned him, I would have almost forgotten about him."
The more Mu Xiaoyu talked about it, the more she felt that Liang Qiao and Li Zhe were despicable. At the same time, she felt a little scared. Fortunately, she hadn't had much contact with Liang Qiao, otherwise, who knows what might have happened.
Mu Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Remembering that she still had a manuscript to finish, she didn't say anything more to the person in charge of the contract at SQ. After parting ways with them, she left the coffee shop and prepared to go home.
However, Mu Xiaoyu had only been in the car for a short time when she received a text message from her bodyguard.
"Madam, someone is following us."
A text message, however, made Mu Xiaoyu's heart sink.
She subconsciously glanced behind her, but there were too many vehicles passing by, and Mu Xiaoyu couldn't tell which one it was. However, since the bodyguard noticed, she wasn't worried.
In Mu Xiaoyu's opinion, the person who was following them this time was most likely not one of Mu Pengzheng's men.
Given Mu Pengzheng's cunning and cautious nature, even if he were to be followed, he wouldn't do it so openly.
But at this point, who else could it be but Mu Pengzheng?
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't figure it out, so she could only try to find a way to understand it.
After thinking for a moment, she finally sent a message to the bodyguards following behind the car.
Mu Xiaoyu and her bodyguards gradually drove from the busy road onto a quieter side street. It was only then that Mu Xiaoyu realized which car had been following her.
Looking in the rearview mirror, there was a black car following Mu Xiaoyu's car at a steady pace and very cautiously. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice it at all.
And whether it was just Mu Xiaoyu's imagination or not, she felt that the car following her seemed somewhat familiar...
"Madam, the car that's following us seems to have followed you before."
At this moment, the bodyguard sitting in front suddenly turned his head and said seriously to Mu Xiaoyu.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu was taken aback, and immediately recalled the car that had followed her when she went to SQ.
If she remembered correctly, the person in that car seemed to be the middle-aged man who looked extremely similar to Liang Qiao!
