"Miss Yang has always been the person in charge of this branch, but just a few days ago, she suddenly received a transfer order from the headquarters to become a department manager at Lin Corporation Headquarters," Jiang Hao said.

"How come I haven't heard Yuluo mention this?"

Ling Zhenfei was startled by this news. Logically, Lin Yuluo, knowing that he and Yang Zixuan were acquaintances, should have at least notified him in advance about such a transfer!

"Young Master Ling, the strangeness of the situation lies right here," Jiang Hao said gravely.

"Young Master Ling, President Lin didn't inform you in advance about this because she was too busy with official duties and wasn't even aware of the transfer order. This order was issued by Du Kongting. That is to say, it was Du Kongting who wanted Miss Yang transferred to the headquarters!"

As he spoke, Jiang Hao's tone grew even more grave, "Young Master Ling, Du Kongting has always been looking for a chance to strike at Miss Yang but never found the opportunity. Tell me, could this deliberate transfer be his way of..."

"Hmm! Du Kongting, that old rascal, is full of schemes. He definitely wouldn't be so kind as to transfer Zi Xuan to headquarters without an ulterior motive. He's likely plotting something!"

Jiang Hao's words made Ling Zhenfei become vigilant. He was well aware that Du Kongting was using this move against Yang Zixuan as a way to target him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to the trouble of having Jiang Hao protect Yang Zixuan.

But now, what was this all about? Du Kongting, hiding it from Lin Yuluo and transferring Yang Zixuan back to headquarters, what exactly was he up to?

As Ling Zhenfei pondered this, increasingly alarmed, Jiang Hao continued to speak, making him feel even more suspicious.

It turned out that not only had Du Kongting transferred Yang Zixuan back to Lin Corporation Headquarters, but the very next day, which was today, he assigned her a business trip, sending Yang Zixuan to Provincial City tomorrow to discuss business with a client.

Could it be that Du Kongting did this to move Yang Zixuan out of his sight and then strike at her?

The more Ling Zhenfei thought about it, the more suspicious he became. If he did not act immediately to intervene, Yang Zixuan might very well encounter danger.

Thus, he told Jiang Hao to take a few days off. He would personally handle the matters that followed.

After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei did not waste a moment. He hailed a taxi and rushed to Lin Corporation.

Ling Zhenfei had once saved Lin Corporation from collapsing. Everyone in Lin Corporation, from the shareholders to the cleaning lady, recognized Ling Zhenfei.

Seeing Ling Zhenfei, no one dared to stop him. He went straight to the CEO's office to inquire about Yang Zixuan's situation.

"Ah, if it isn't Boss Ling? What a rare visitor! May I know what brings Boss Ling to our company this time?"

Ling Zhenfei was about to enter the elevator when he suddenly saw Du Kongting emerging from it.

"Enemies are bound to meet—I suppose," Du Kongting had his successes foiled by Ling Zhenfei multiple times. He both feared and hated him, and regarded him as an enemy. Seeing Ling Zhenfei now, he immediately sneered derisively.

"Du Kongting, I was just looking for you!" Du Kongting loathed Ling Zhenfei, and Ling Zhenfei felt the same toward him.

Seeing this old man still daring to address him with a smirk, Ling Zhenfei immediately felt a surge of rage burst from his chest.

He reached out and grabbed the man by the collar, furiously shouting, "Du Kongting, I know you hold a grudge against me. Use whatever tricks you have directly against me! Don't think about harming those close to me, or else I'll make you regret ever being born in this world!"

"What... what are you talking about? Boss Ling, you're completely talking nonsense! It makes no sense!"

Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei's piercing gaze, Du Kongting felt a sudden wave of panic in his chest. When he glanced at Ling Zhenfei again, his heart trembled wildly with shock, daring not to look further.

However, as a cunning old fox, though he despised Ling Zhenfei so much that he gritted his teeth, he still craftily argued, "Boss Ling, I know you're a formidable man not to be trifled with, I would avoid you rather than provoke you, could there be some misunderstanding here?"

"You..."

Although Ling Zhenfei hated not to immediately smash this hypocrite's face to a pulp, he still glared angrily at Du Kongting in order to uncover his scheme, and barked harshly, "I ask you, why did you transfer Yang Zixuan back to the company headquarters? What are your true intentions? Also, why are you so eager to send her on a business trip, what exactly do you plan to do?"

"This, ah! Hehe, Boss Ling, this really wrongs me!"

This time, Ling Zhenfei had thought that Du Kongting would continue to argue with him, but it seemed as if Du Kongting had already anticipated that Ling Zhenfei would question him in this manner.

Upon hearing this, Du Kongting immediately let out a strange laugh, putting on a very aggrieved face, he spread his hands and said, "Boss Ling, you really misunderstand me. Reassigning Yang Zixuan wasn't my idea, it was President Lin's. And having Yang Zixuan go meet the client tomorrow is also President Lin's decision, it has nothing to do with me at all!"

What? It wasn't Du Kongting's idea?

Upon hearing this, Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but be greatly surprised.

He would never have expected this outcome. Could it be that what Du Kongting said was true, that it was actually Lin Yuluo who wanted Yang Zixuan transferred back?

"Hehe, Boss Ling, if you don't believe me, you can go and ask President Lin yourself."

Seeing the disbelief on Ling Zhenfei's face, Du Kongting couldn't help but reveal a cold smirk, "She is currently in the office. This matter really has nothing to do with me!"

Ah!

This outcome was indeed quite unexpected for Ling Zhenfei. Upon hearing Jiang Hao's report, his first thought was that Yang Zixuan's transfer must be a part of Du Kongting's scheme.

But if it was truly Lin Yuluo who had transferred Yang Zixuan back, what exactly did that imply?

"Boss Ling, I have other matters to attend to, you can ask President Lin about the specifics yourself. I'll take my leave!"

While Ling Zhenfei was still stunned, Du Kongting's eyes twinkled with a sneer, he shook off Ling Zhenfei's grip and strode away.

Watching Du Kongting's arrogant departure, Ling Zhenfei could only temporarily suppress his anger and walked into the elevator, planning to inquire further from Lin Yuluo.

Upon reaching the CEO's office, just as Ling Zhenfei was about to knock, he heard Lin Yuluo's voice from inside, "Is that Zhenfei? Please come in!"

Hearing this, Ling Zhenfei immediately felt as if he had been hit by Sun Wukong's fixation spell, and he stood completely still.

What was this situation, could it be… that Lin Yuluo, like him, also possessed the Perspective Eye? Or perhaps, she had already known he was coming, and had been deliberately waiting for a long time?

Of course, the Perspective Divine Eye wasn't something commonly available, and Ling Zhenfei would rather believe that Lin Yuluo had the foresight to know of his arrival, than to believe she could see through him.

Creak!

The door of the CEO's office was slightly ajar, and upon hearing Lin Yuluo's voice, Ling Zhenfei temporarily set aside his astonishment and pushed the door to enter.
