When Seo Fei ca to her senses again, she was already on the large bed in the hotel. She rubbed her aching neck and stood up, looking at the bright sky outside. She pushed open the bedroom door and walked out, only to see Lin Huo sitting on the sofa, with a bodyguard standing by the door, looking vigilant.
"What do you an by this?!" Seo Fei stopped in front of the coffee table and questioned.
"I have already called President Tang." Lin Huo glanced at the watch on his wrist, his tone polite yet indifferent, "He will be here in six hours. Before President Tang arrives, I hope you won’t leave the living room."
"What right do you have to restrict my freedom?!" Seo Fei growled.
Lin Huo stood up, "This is President Tang’s intention."
Seo Fei strode towards the door, and the bodyguard in black stepped forward to block her path, "I hope you don’t force to take action against you."
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, Seo Fei turned around, walked back to the bedroom, and slamd the door shut heavily.
At noon, Lin Huo brought lunch over, and she simply turned her face to the side, not even looking at it, let alone eating.
In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon. At around three o’clock, the door opened, and Tang Ming, who rushed back from the United States, walked in with a bodyguard.
"President Tang."
Lin Huo imdiately stood up to greet him and briefly explained what had happened.
Slap!
Upon hearing that he had knocked Seo Fei unconscious and brought her back to the hotel, Tang Ming raised his hand and delivered a resounding slap to his face.
"There better not be a next ti." His voice was full of anger.
"Yes,"
Lin Huo’s face flushed red from the slap, his lips bleeding, but he dared not retaliate, instead just agreeing and stepping aside.
Tang Ming strode into the bedroom, only to see Seo Fei sitting grimly on the small sofa. When she saw him enter, she imdiately turned her face to the side.
Closing the door, Tang Ming walked over with a frown, bent down, and held her knees.
"I’m sorry, he shouldn’t have hit you. I’ve already punished him, and I promise there won’t be a next ti."
"You took the USB drive, didn’t you?!" Seo Fei questioned angrily.
"What USB drive?" Tang Ming asked, puzzled.
"Even now, you’re not telling the truth?" Seo Fei frowned at him, "After we left my apartnt that day, wasn’t it you who had soone take the USB drive from under my coffee table? I clearly put it there. If it wasn’t you, could it have been soone else?!"
Tang Ming’s pupils slightly contracted, "The USB drive... had proof against Leng Zimo?!"
Seo Fei scrutinized his expression, "Really, it wasn’t you?!"
"Xiao Pei!" Tang Ming grabbed her arm, "Look closely, I am Tang Ming, the one who has been taking care of and helping you for the past five years. Do you have so little trust in after all these years?!"
"It wasn’t you..." Seo Fei carefully recalled the events of that night. Thinking of the listening device in her phone, she nervously grabbed Tang Ming’s arm, "Quick, give a car. I need to go sowhere right now, or it will be too late!"
If they could track her ho and get the USB drive, then it’s very likely they could find the graveyard. She had to go check if the data was still there.
Tang Ming helped her up, "I’ll go with you."
"No!" Seo Fei stretched out her arms to block him, "If you want to trust you, stay here and wait for to co back."
Tang Ming frowned, looking at her face, "Lin Huo, give her the car keys!"
