Chapter 239: Conspiracy
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
If he had known that Mo Shu would be so reckless, Zhang Ting would have personally screened the partic.i.p.ants and wouldn’t have let Mo Shu take advantage of the situation. He had actually sneaked into the technology exhibition and even displayed the model that caused all the trouble!
Tan Jing looked at Zhang Ting’s fl.u.s.tered expression in disdain. He looked like a frightened bird, as if as long as he pulled the bowstring, he would be so frightened that he would tell everything!
Tan Jing made his voice sound tougher so that Zhang Ting would calm down. “He doesn’t have any evidence, so even if he exposes everything, no one will believe him.”
“But…” Zhang Ting was still worried. It was obvious that he was extremely afraid and he even started stammering.
Tan Jing’s gaze became menacing as he stared at Zhang Ting and said, “I’m warning you. Be careful of your mouth. If you tell anyone about this, you should know the consequences.”
Zhang Ting trembled in fear. Of course, he knew what would happen. He had already seen what happened to Mo Shu two years ago!
For the past two years, Zhang Ting had been at the mercy of others. He was willing to be a marionette and listen to others’ orders because he was afraid that his life would be ruined like Mo Shu’s.
However, he wasn’t as bold as Mo Shu. He still had a family to protect and he couldn’t let himself fail in the field of computing that he was best at!
Zhang Ting swallowed hard to calm himself down. Then, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat on his forehead as he said calmly, “I understand.”
The secretary happened to return at this time. When he saw Zhang Ting’s actions, he knew that Zhang Ting must have been frightened again.
He had been by Zhang Ting’s side for two years and had also monitored him for two years, but this person to hadn’t improved at all. He was still that submissive and despicable person who stepped on others’ backs to climb up.
The secretary’s gaze was cold and even filled with disdain. Zhang Ting, who had just been frightened, would probably tremble if he saw this gaze.
However, the secretary controlled himself very well. The moment Zhang Ting looked up and met his gaze, he immediately retracted his cold gaze and said with a smile, “General Manager, don’t worry. I’ll help you. Nothing will go wrong.”
Only then did Zhang Ting relax. His body was trembling uncontrollably, but he still nodded vigorously.
Mo Shu followed s.h.i.+ Xiao downstairs. As soon as he left the building, he zipped up his black jacket.
Zhao Mian was very curious. The weather was very warm and there was no wind. Moreover, when the temperature was at its highest at three to four in the afternoon, so it wasn’t cold at all. Why did he wrap himself up so tightly?
After Mo Shu zipped up, he walked two steps faster and stood beside s.h.i.+ Xiao. Then, he said very seriously, “Thank you for helping me today. Otherwise, I might not have been able to leave the office safely. However, I don’t have anything to repay you with. If you want my attack code, 1 can give it to you.”
Zhao Mian found this person very interesting. He was clearly thanking someone, but his tone sounded so matter-of-fact and even a little arrogant.
Ordinary people wouldn’t want an attack code, but he made the attack code sound priceless. It was as if using the attack code to thank someone for saving his life was a bargain for the other party.
s.h.i.+ Xiao said with a smile, “I’m not interested in your attack code. If you want to thank me, why don’t you show me the model you displayed? We can discuss the price.”
s.h.i.+ Xiao didn’t ask why Zhang Ting had brought him to the office. It wasn’t that s.h.i.+ Xiao wasn’t curious, but he knew that it was useless to ask. If Mo Shu was willing to say it, he wouldn’t have only provoked Zhang Ting on the stage of the exhibition hall.
Mo Shu did this because he wanted to talk to Zhang Ting face-to-face. Now, he had achieved his goal.
Initially, Mo Shu was very grateful to s.h.i.+ Xiao. However, when he heard him mention the models placed in the exhibition hall, Mo Shu’s expression changed immediately and he looked at s.h.i.+ Xiao coldly..
