Double evil in the business district

Chapter 301: Reversing Thinking to Break the Situation: Xiao Yue Gets a Glimpse of the Conspiracy

Xiao Yue sat in the center of the defense deployment room, surrounded by huge electronic screens on which various complex codes and data streams were jumping.

Instead of immediately diving into analyzing the new round of business reports as usual, she fell into deep thought.

Her fingertips tapped lightly on the table, one by one, like the rhythm of a war drum, and the sound was particularly clear in the quiet room.

The scenes of her past confrontations with Lin Xiao flashed through her mind like a movie.

Those carefully designed traps and those pressing threats made her realize that her opponent was no ordinary person.

If we continue to deal with it with the old way of thinking, we will be digging our own graves.

Her eyes gradually became sharper, like a blade tempered by ice, and she exuded an authority that could not be ignored.

In her eyes, those busy colleagues seemed to have become the background. She was in another time and space, a battlefield that belonged only to her.

She took a deep breath and made a bold decision in her heart: do the opposite.

No longer obsessed with those business data and transaction details, but turned his attention to Lin Xiao's private life.

Once this idea took shape, it was like a flame burning in her heart, dispelling her previous confusion and anxiety.

She stood up, walked to the dressing room, and changed into a low-key but tasteful outfit.

A slight adjustment to her delicate makeup made her look more like a low-key business upstart rather than a strong woman from the Xiao family.

She put on a wide-brimmed hat that covered most of her face and looked at herself in the mirror until she was sure there were no flaws. Only then did she walk out of the room satisfied.

Xiao Yue left the Xiao Building alone without notifying anyone.

She drove to a high-end private club that Lin Xiao often went to, which was full of luxury and decadent music.

The air was filled with the strong smell of perfume and alcohol, and the loud music was deafening.

She frowned slightly, a little uncomfortable with the environment here, but she did not retreat. Instead, she tried to calm herself down.

She moved gracefully among the crowd, exuding a unique tenacity and confidence in her every gesture, like a bright light in the darkness that could not be ignored.

Detective Zhou, who had been following her secretly, couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw her actions at this moment.

He originally thought that Xiao Yue would investigate Lin Xiao's business activities step by step, but he didn't expect that she would choose to sneak directly into the other party's private territory.

This unexpected strategy made him admire Xiao Yue's courage and determination even more.

As Xiao Yue observed her surroundings, she caught a few faint whispers. They came from a few people in a booth not far away, whispering something secret. One of the voices sounded familiar to her...

Under the dim light, the champagne in the goblet reflected a hazy light.

Xiao Yue approached the group of people calmly, pricked up his ears, and caught their conversation.

"Zhao Xingui has invested a huge amount of money this time just to bring down the Xiao family." A man said in a low voice, with a hint of barely perceptible excitement in his tone.

"That's right. I heard that he found a powerful helper. It is said that..." Another woman's voice sounded, but she stopped abruptly at the key point, as if deliberately keeping people in suspense.

"Who is it? Tell me quickly!" the man who spoke earlier urged.

"Shh, keep your voice down! That man is..." The woman lowered her voice again. Xiao Yue only vaguely heard the word "Chen...", and then it was swallowed up by the noisy music.

"Chen..." Xiao Yue muttered this word in his heart, and the list of all the executives and important employees of Xiao Group quickly flashed through his mind.

The surname Chen...

Manager Chen?

Manager Chen?

still is……

Spy Chen?

A surge of excitement like an electric current rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Xiao Yue felt as if he had been groping in the dark for a long time and finally grasped a ray of light.

She continued to observe the group calmly, trying to capture more useful information.

However, fate seemed to be playing a joke on her.

The group's voices became quieter and quieter, and finally they simply changed the subject and started talking about some irrelevant gossip.

The noisy environment around her was like countless mosquitoes buzzing in her ears, making her feel irritated.

But she didn't give up.

She took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and replayed the words she had heard in her mind, trying to find clues.

"Chen..." This surname was like a puzzle, troubling Xiao Yue.

She felt like she was wandering in a huge maze, surrounded by fog and unable to see the direction.

But she knew that as long as she persisted, she would find a way out.

Xiao Building, defense deployment room.

Public Relations Officer Wu paced back and forth anxiously, looking at the data on the screen from time to time.

"Why hasn't Mr. Xiao come back yet? The situation is getting worse and worse."

"Don't worry, Mr. Xiao will definitely find a way." A technician comforted him, but there was also a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

Just then, Xiao Yue pushed the door open and walked in.

She took off her hat, revealing a slightly tired but still resolute face.

"Mr. Xiao, you're back! Did you find anything?" Public Relations Officer Wu hurried forward with a hint of anticipation in his tone.

Xiao Yue looked around and said, "I might have found a breakthrough."

"who is it?"

Xiao Yue paused, then slowly uttered a name: "Spy Chen."

The phone rang suddenly, breaking the tense atmosphere in the room.

Xiao Yue glanced at the caller ID and frowned slightly.

"It's Shen Ting..."

The phone rang in the defense deployment room, breaking the solemn atmosphere inside.

Xiao Yue looked at the two words "Shen Ting" jumping on the screen, and a warm current surged in her heart, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved into a gentle arc.

She pressed the answer button, and Shen Ting's low and magnetic voice came, soothing her anxiety like a reassurance.

"Yueyue, are you still busy?" Shen Ting's voice was filled with concern. Even through the phone, one could seem to feel the tenderness in his eyes.

"Yeah, I just came back." Xiao Yue's tone became much lighter, as if a burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She didn't want Shen Ting to worry about her.

"How about you? Are things going well at the company?"

"Everything is fine, I just miss you a little." Shen Ting's voice was slightly low, with a hint of imperceptible tenderness, "Don't be too tired, tell me if there is anything."

"I know, you take care of yourself too." Xiao Yue's voice was gentle, and an indescribable warmth surged in his heart. All the busyness and fatigue seemed to be swept away by his voice.

She knew that even though they could not be with each other all the time, their concern and support for each other never diminished.

This interweaving of emotions makes their relationship stronger in the busy life.

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yue took a deep breath and his eyes became sharp and firm again.

She must find out the truth as soon as possible and must not let Shen Ting down.

She returned to the club, and the previous hustle and bustle seemed to have faded away, leaving only her clear goal.

She found a bartender who looked more friendly and skillfully maneuvered him around, turning the topic to the group of people who were talking.

"Those gentlemen look unfamiliar. It seems like they come here often recently." She said as she handed over a tip.

The bartender took the tip with a flattering smile on his face.

"Oh, those guys you're talking about? They seem to be hanging out with a Mr. Chen. I heard he's a pretty powerful business broker."

"Business broker?" Xiao Yue continued to ask, "Then do you know where this Mr. Chen often hangs out?"

The bartender looked around and lowered his voice, "I'm not sure about that, but I heard he often goes to some high-end private clubs."

When Xiao Yue got this information, his mind became clear.

A look of triumph lit up her face, as if she had seen a ray of light in the darkness.

She felt that she was one step closer to uncovering Lin Xiao's conspiracy, and Xiao Enterprise seemed to see the dawn of hope.

Not far away, Detective Zhou, who was observing secretly, saw her confident look and was once again impressed with Xiao Yue's investigative ability.

Xiao Yue knew that although she had found this key person, she had no idea what role this person played in Lin Xiao's new conspiracy.

She is still unknown.

She needs more information to completely uncover Lin Xiao's true identity.

She checked the time again and gave Detective Zhou new instructions.

As she turned around, she heard her phone ring again. The familiar number appeared on the screen. She hesitated for a moment and slowly pressed the answer button...
