Bai Xiaosheng looked at Lei Ying, who was gazing at him intently.
"Are you thinking what I’m thinking?" Bai Xiaosheng suddenly asked with a smile.
Lei Ying also smiled, "It seems we have the sa idea. Trust to handle it."
"I trust you." Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile.
Their cryptic conversation left Lin Weiwei puzzled, looking around, trying to understand.
Finally, Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but say, "Can you two stop beating around the bush? Speak up, I’m still here."
Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying looked at Lin Weiwei and laughed.
"Keep this up, and I’ll be mad!" Lin Weiwei huffed angrily.
Were they treating her as an outsider or underestimating her intelligence...
"Don’t you understand? Sheng wants to get hold of the docunts that woman carries, and we’ll know if they’re real the mont we see them. I can ensure all this happens without alerting her. Once I give Sheng the confirmation, we’ll decide our next move!" Lei Ying explained to Lin Weiwei.
"That’s it." Bai Xiaosheng nodded in agreent.
Conducting a check discreetly and then deciding on the next course of action—this approach wasn’t particularly clever, but with Lei Ying involved, it was undoubtedly the best thod.
After all, Lei Ying used to be a battlefield ghost; the other party might not even realize it after he’s thoroughly investigated them.
"Brilliant," Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but praise.
Bai Xiaosheng looked at Lei Ying, "You stay here and clear up those matters over the next couple of days. We’ll keep in touch remotely and then decide on our next action."
"The feeling of sneaking in on the battlefield and stealing information is coming back," Lei Ying’s lips curled with a confident and sharp smile.
...
At a quarter past two in the afternoon, everyone from the Huaxia Business Group gathered in the lobby on the first floor, mingling with each other.
The news of Bai Xiaosheng being comnded by Naliya had already spread.
Lu Yun, Jia Chengshan, Lu Tiandao, Dong Tianlu, Zhang Qinglin, Wang Xuantian—these top-notch businessn in the group all joined forces to congratulate Bai Xiaosheng.
After all, being comnded by one country and praised by your own country is a huge honor.
Businessn value two things most: fa and profit. Being able to achieve both wherever you go makes you remarkable, earning the admiration of even these top businessn.
Moreover, Bai Xiaosheng had acted as a bridge, bringing everyone into an invisible grand business alliance, akin to the "Alliance Hierarch" of ancient tis, and enjoyed good relations with everyone, prompting them to draw closer to him.
Even those with relatively distant relations secretly pointed at and discussed Bai Xiaosheng from afar.
Finally, Hou Yuncheng appeared with the leaders of the business group, calling everyone to gather for a chat.
The crowd quieted down.
Hou Yuncheng publicly, on behalf of the higher-ups, comnded Bai Xiaosheng.
Applause erupted imdiately, with Lin Weiwei next to Bai Xiaosheng clapping particularly enthusiastically, her face beaming with a bright smile.
However, Lei Ying was not nearby; he had already returned to Dilu City to conduct investigations and verifications as instructed by Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng had already inford the group leaders about this.
Since Lei Ying was not a formal mber of the business group, just an accompanying staff, and given Bai Xiaosheng’s popularity, the leaders readily agreed.
After the comndation, Hou Yuncheng announced that the business group would set off to the next country—Xisuli.
The prominent businessn in attendance took their belongings and followed the leaders in an orderly manner, the buses outside ready to take them to the airport.
In the crowd, Bai Xiaosheng glanced in the direction of Dilu City, his eyes flickering, hoping Lei Ying would soon bring back good news...
...
In Dilu City, at 6 PM local ti.
In a private room of an upscale restaurant near the "Green Sky" company, Old John was hosting Jenny for dinner.
The two of them dined alone, enjoying a French al, savoring each dish slowly, a setting suitable for eating and conversing simultaneously.
"Miss Jenny, how did you end up in such a serious tangle with that guy nad Bai? Was it just on the road? Nothing happened before?" Old John put a juicy steak in his mouth, chewing it slowly as he asked, "I heard from Zack that you even considered embarrassing him in public."
If they really put that guy nad Bai in a difficult position at their "Green Sky" company, it could be a big problem.
Of course, Old John still didn’t know Bai Xiaosheng’s true identity, otherwise, he wouldn’t have the appetite to eat tonight.
"How would I know what kind of background he has? If I knew, I would have stayed far away from him, and could have tolerated any conflict," Jenny took a sip of white wine, her response slightly ambiguous and double-aning.
Jenny also hadn’t disclosed Bai Xiaosheng’s true identity to Old John.
Otherwise, the old fox sitting opposite her would have flipped out, possibly reporting to his superiors, which could jeopardize this cooperation.
This was sothing Jenny didn’t want to see.
After all, she had traveled a long way, and encountering Bai Xiaosheng was an unexpected twist—if anything else went wrong, she would have no way to explain it to Miss Caroline.
In Jenny’s view, since Bai Xiaosheng left, there was no difference if she ntioned it or not...
Even if Bai Xiaosheng hadn’t left, once she signed the cooperation, she would have to leave, and any issues arising later wouldn’t involve her...
Old John probably didn’t realize that Jenny had also devised a plan involving him.
