Chapter 1232 - 1232: South Railway Station

Near the time to get off work, Xiao Chen went to the restroom.

And at this moment,

he suddenly received a phone call and urgently said after answering,

"Zhang Kaitian, what's up? I'm currently in the lab, so make it quick because I need to go out."

He felt that Zhang Kaitian seeking him out must be for something important, either concerning his sister or due to a failure in Zhang Kaitian's plan.

Before hearing Zhang Kaitian's voice, he was extremely anxious, not knowing the reason.

After he finished speaking, Zhang Kaitian said, "I've seen the USB drive you sent yesterday, and the information inside is comprehensive. You've done a great job."

"This afternoon, find a way to get to South Railway Station; I will send someone to pick you up and take you to your sister's hospital, understood?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen's face displayed an expression of joy.

Unexpectedly, he would see his sister so soon.

There's an additional chance this month to see her, so how could he not be happy?

It must be because the USB drive he sent contains data that the other party wants, allowing him to receive leniency.

He nodded and said excitedly, "Rest assured, I will definitely be at South Railway Station this afternoon."

After hanging up the phone excitedly, tears streamed down Xiao Chen's face.

He was extremely grateful for this unexpected opportunity to see his sister.

As for betraying Lin Feng, that deep emotion was temporarily set aside.

Knowing that thinking about it now serves no purpose, he left the restroom and returned to the lab building.

His thoughts were entirely focused on the time he would meet his sister.

In his eyes, time moved very slowly, wishing he could get off work quickly and go to South Railway Station.

Li Tian, during this period, had already observed the demeanor of these people, so he felt everything was fine and turned to leave. Upon leaving, he reported to Lin Feng on the phone.

Everything was alright, and after saying this, he drove home.

But as he drove along, he noticed a shadow in the rearview mirror appearing, precisely someone everyone found likable in the lab building: Xiao Chen.

"Why is this guy coming out? Shouldn't he still be in the lab continuing his research on the Elixir?"

"What is he doing out at this time?"

Wondering about this, he was about to get out of the car for a closer look when a car behind quickly pulled up and Xiao Chen got in.

Notably, this car appeared to be an expensive business vehicle, comparable to his.

He didn't think Xiao Chen could afford such a cab, nor did it seem like the car belonged to Xiao Chen.

He'd heard this guy had a sister, and all the money earned was spent on her.

So he ought to be quite poor.

Li Tian's curiosity prompted him to unconsciously follow Xiao Chen until reaching South Lake Station.

Once there, Xiao Chen got out of the car.

Li Tian felt a sense of oddity: why was this guy here?

But there were many people at South Railway Station. He couldn't just get out and follow Xiao Chen; it seemed a bit creepy. So he turned around to head back, calling Lin Feng.

"The researchers in your company seem fine, but today I noticed something unusual: someone headed to South Railway Station."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng curiously said, "If it's Xiao Chen, then this matter is indeed strange."

Li Tian wasn't really naive; he had been alert to such matters since childhood, so he couldn't help but say to Lin Feng, "Don't you think you should question his reasons for being there?"

"Now is a crucial first step in the Elixir research. How could he leave the lab building so casually?"

Lin Feng also felt a bit suspicious about Li Tian's doubts.

He trusted the lab's researchers, yet if truly betrayed, that would be problematic. Nodding he said,

"Alright then, I'll ask him later, but there shouldn't be any major issues. He's pretty honest, and I trust him."

Growing up watching his family do business, Li Tian knew a bit about corporate affairs, still thinking the matter warranted investigation.

Finally, Lin Feng had to bestow authority upon him: "Go ahead and investigate, and if you uncover anything, tell me."

Unwilling to suspect his people, Lin Feng took Li Tian's proposal lightly until he unexpectedly discovered something about Xiao Chen.

However, that was a story for later.

In recent days, Lin Feng hadn't gone to the lab.

He passed the authority to Li Tian because he had more important things to address.

Upon arriving at South Railway Station, he waited at the previously designated spot.

After half an hour, someone suddenly appeared behind him and with a black hood covered his head.

Afterward, he was knocked unconscious.

When he awoke again, he found himself in a dark small room with no one around.

Unable to see his sister, feeling anxious, he shouted, "Zhang Kaitian, where are you? Get out here now concerning my sister."

Since before,

whenever Xiao Chen reached a place, he'd ensure seeing his sister.

But now it was different, unknown why the other party brought him here.

Then bound him; he kicked the door hoping someone outside would hear and rush in, but some time later, the intruder kicked him down.

Then said, "Our Director Zhang is very pleased with your actions this time, but there's something that truly angered him."

Facing this, Xiao Chen looked at the man holding a steel rod, fearfully asking, "What did he say, and why treat me this way?"

"Hahaha, are you truly unaware or pretending not to be? Didn't you hear what our boss said?"

"You were too dilatory in your tasks this time, so we were sent to teach you a lesson."

Xiao Chen clenched his teeth but did not confront them, asking instead, "Then if I take this lesson, can I still see my sister?"

This was his primary goal for coming.

Upon his question, the men with steel rods laughed, seemingly mocking his foolishness.

"Kid, we're not saying you're naive, but how can you be so dumb?"

"Do you think after Director Zhang sends us to teach you, he'll let you see your sister?"

"What an idiot! Used by Director Zhang for so long yet so oblivious!"
