Chapter 1484: Chapter 1484: Undercover Life (22)

"Business dispute, hasn’t resurfaced?" Jiang Xue’s brow furrowed slightly. This situation felt a bit strange, and was different from the feedback from Ah Li. This morning, Ah Li had told her that Jin Hao had gone to discuss a business deal.

One is a deal, the other is a business dispute, there’s quite a discrepancy between these two pieces of information.

Moreover, if it truly is a business dispute, wouldn’t there be no need for Jin Hao to step in?

Or could it be that Jin Hao is guarding against her? Perhaps they have a new plan and feared her discovering it, so they came up with this excuse?

"You should have them investigate what exactly Jin Hao is doing, I suspect there’s a problem here."

"Alright, I’ll call them in a bit." Huo Cong nodded, not having considered much initially, but since Jiang Xue felt there was an issue, it was necessary to investigate thoroughly.

Huo Cong then made a call, and Jiang Xue sat and waited for a while before going to have breakfast with him.

After breakfast, they exited the hotel to find Ah Lin already waiting outside. Seeing them emerge, Ah Lin smiled and said, "Miss Jiang, we’re going to the factory today."

"Sure, no problem!" Jiang Xue smiled and nodded. She didn’t mind where they were going as long as it allowed her to engage with MD Group’s matters.

Seeing that Jiang Xue didn’t object, Ah Lin relaxed slightly. He was worried that Jiang Xue might not be willing. After all, she’d been going to the factory for several days without official work, only examining documents every day.

Jiang Xue glanced at Ah Lin, somewhat understanding what he was concerned about, and couldn’t help but chuckle to herself. Then she asked, "Ah Lin, I saw that the first batch of materials for the collaboration between your company and mine has arrived. When does the company plan to install them, and where will they be installed?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ah Lin’s expression changed slightly but quickly recovered, though Jiang Xue noticed it clearly.

Hesitating for a moment, Ah Lin said, "Miss Jiang, this batch of materials has just arrived, and Mr. Jin is on a business trip. He hasn’t given orders yet, so I don’t know where they’ll be installed."

"Really?" Jiang Xue obviously didn’t believe it. These items aren’t cheap, and since they’ve been bought, there’s no way they’re just left untouched?

Moreover, before procuring such items in large quantities, there would definitely have been a plan, and the intended installation location would surely be mentioned in it. Ah Lin not telling her was likely under Jin Hao’s instructions, prohibiting disclosure.

Otherwise, given his current attitude towards her, there’s no reason to keep secrets.

"Miss Jiang, I really don’t know. If I did, I’d tell you directly," Ah Lin explained. Jiang Xue didn’t press further, accepting his explanation.

Throughout the journey, the two didn’t speak again until they reached the factory, where they each entered their respective offices. Jiang Xue sat down in her office, ready to review the documents from yesterday.

The office door was knocked on. She thought it was Ah Lin, smiled, and called out: "Come in!"

The door opened, and a female employee entered holding documents. She addressed Jiang Xue, "Miss Jiang, Assistant Lin asked me to deliver these documents."

"Alright, thank you. Please place them beside me, I’ll read them shortly." Jiang Xue said, her gaze still fixed on the documents in her hand.

After placing the documents down, the female employee, seeing Jiang Xue had no further instructions, prepared to leave. At that moment, Jiang Xue raised her head, glanced at the woman, and asked with a smile, "May I have your name?"
