For the first time, he felt that Xie Lei was an idiot.
When did he look down on him? The more Mu Di thought about it, the angrier he became. Just as he was about to ask him something, Han Shi spoke again.
“What kind of shady deal do you have with Young Master Ye?”
Mu Di was stunned again before his face darkened. He pointed at Xie Lei and looked at Han Shi. He mouthed, “Are you sure?”
The corners of Han Shi’s mouth curled up as he raised his chin, indicating for him to continue to listen in silence.
Xie Lei explained everything in detail. “Young Master Ye asked me to change the first batch of medicine into a fake medicine with poison. He wants to see
Mu Di’s reputation ruined with his own eyes. After the matter is done, he will promise me the position of manager of the Ministry of merce.”
Mu Di was so angry that his face turned livid. He originally wanted to nurture Xie Lei to be his right-hand man, but he didn’t expect Xie Lei to be tempted by just a small position as the manager of a department. At this moment, he did not know if he should laugh at Xie Lei or himself.
His close friend, whom he had played with since he was young, was actually willing to do such a crazy thing for a position.
If not for Han Shi’s reminder today, he might have fallen into the Ye family’s trap.
Not only would this implicate him, but it would also negatively affect the entire Mu family. His father and grandfather would also be implicated. The Ye family would not let go of this excellent opportunity to bring down the Mu family. At that time, it would be too late.
Mu Di asked coldly, “Does Xie Guangkun know about this?”
Xie Guangkun, Xie Lei’s father, was considered an old staff of the Mu family.
He was already 40 years old and had retired early because of his leg problem. Occasionally, he would e to the Mu family to play chess with the old man and chat.
However, he did not see anything wrong with Xie Guangkun. Of course, if there was really something wrong with Xie Guangkun, his grandfather would also notice it. Therefore, Mu Di guessed that Xie Guangkun was unaware of the betrayal of Xie Lei and the Ye family.
Even so, the Xie family was already on Mu Di’s blacklist.
As Mu Di had expected, Xie Lei said excitedly, “My father doesn’t know. He taught me since I was young that the Mu family is their benefactor and that they have to serve the Mu family for generations. However, I’m not unwilling. The Mu family is his benefactor, not mine. I’ve had enough.”
“You betrayed me just because of this stupid reason? Are you an idiot?” Mu Di couldn’t hold back his anger anymore and shouted.
Han Shi quickly pulled him back and shook his head at him. “Calm down. Let’s ask him the details.”
“Tell me your plan and what the poison is. Where did you keep the poison?” Han Shi asked.
“Young Master Ye gave me an incense that can temporarily shut off people’s memories. He asked me to use it on the security guards and take the opportunity to swap the medicine. He hasn’t given me the poison yet. He said that this thing is too dangerous and can only be given to me before we begin transporting the medicine.”
Mu Di and Han Shi exchanged a glance and saw seriousness in each other’s eyes.
“Second Brother, I don’t think this matter is that simple.”
Han Shi pondered for a moment and guessed, “Do you think it’s possible that they wanted to use this batch of medicine to do something? As for what they want to do, I can’t guess.”
Mu Di thought pretty much the same as Han Shi. However, the Ye family had always been sinister and cunning, so he had to be extra careful..
