As soon as Qin Ruomeng's voice rang out, Manager Wang's face started to turn grim. He quickly turned around, looked at Qin Ruomeng, and said, "Qin... Miss Qin, I didn't know he was your husband..."
"You know now?" Qin Ruomeng slowly walked into the office and sat back in her executive chair.
At this moment, Manager Wang was filled with nervousness and embarrassment, with fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He never expected that Ye Tianfan would be Qin Ruomeng's husband, and even less so that she would return so quickly.
Qin Ruomeng gestured with her hand to indicate to the security guards that they could leave.
"Can we talk about what you're looking for now?" Qin Ruomeng frowned slightly as her eyes swept across the multitude of documents on the desk. It was hard for her to figure out what Manager Wang was searching for among the pile of documents that had accumulated over the days. Logically, the most important documents in the company were the financial statements, easily accessible in a prominent place, but Manager Wang didn't take them.
"Misunderstanding… Miss Qin, I came to report work to you, not to look for any documents."
Manager Wang's eyes began to evade, clearly lying, which made Ye Tianfan shake his head involuntarily with a sigh in his heart. This Manager Wang was not only timid but also had poor nerves. It seemed that without needing an explanation, Qin Ruomeng had already discerned his guilty conscience.
"Manager Wang, you've been with the Qin Group for seven or eight years, right? We've always treated you well..."
Qin Ruomeng started to play the emotional card, and Manager Wang kept nodding.
"Then tell me, what exactly are you looking for when you come in? Who sent you?" Qin Ruomeng slightly furrowed her brows, becoming both soft and stern: "Manager Wang, you put the laxative in the cup, didn't you? Do you know that just for this, I can send you to jail!"
In the face of Qin Ruomeng's strong pressure, Manager Wang couldn't hold up at all. His body began to tremble slightly, and he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead before speaking: "Qin... Miss Qin, I... I didn't want to either."
Seeing that Manager Wang had softened, the expression on Qin Ruomeng's face eased a lot: "As long as you tell me everything, I won't hold it against you." With that, Qin Ruomeng personally poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Manager Wang: "Speak."
"I was looking for the Haikou Trade Map between Qin Group and Leng Group." Manager Wang held the glass tightly, looking extremely nervous.
Qin Ruomeng furrowed her brows slightly; she was quite puzzled. The Haikou Trade Map wasn't a confidential document, so it wasn't in her office at all but in Secretary Xiao Ya's drawer. Apparently, Manager Wang misunderstood the document classification and got himself into this trouble without reason.
But Qin Ruomeng didn't understand why Manager Wang went to such lengths, even poisoning her with a laxative, just for a document that wasn't even a business secret. What was he really after?
Qin Ruomeng picked up the phone: "Xiao Ya, bring over the Haikou Trade Map."
"Excuse me, Miss Qin, which Haikou Trade Map do you mean?"
"All the Haikou Trade Maps from our cooperation with the Leng Family, bring them all over."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ya quickly came in, holding the Haikou Trade Maps, which numbered over a dozen.
Ye Tianfan picked up one map and opened it to take a look, frowning. The Haikou Trade Map was recorded in detail, noting the items, quantities, values, which ship was responsible for the transport, and the sailing routes, all clearly marked.
"Have you discovered anything?" Qin Ruomeng turned to look at Ye Tianfan and asked.
Qin Ruomeng had seen too many of these Haikou Trade Maps to concern herself with any details. As the company's chairman, she couldn't manage such minutiae. Maps like these were typically handed directly to the Lingbei District branch, since all Haikou trade needed to go through Lingbei, making it convenient to leave the task to them.
"Is there something wrong with the Lingbei District?" Qin Ruomeng's expression tightened with anxiety. The Lingbei Trade Zone was crucial to the Qin Family, and after the incidents caused by Fang Zaitian and Huang Shengtian, the Qin Family suffered significant losses. They could not afford any more problems there.
"The Lingbei Trade Zone shouldn't have any issues. After all, with Ji Liancheng there, aren't you reassured?" Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow and then glanced at the Haikou Trade Map in his hand, a cold smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.
Ye Tianfan had already realized that the Haikou Trade Map was not confidential, but Manager Wang tried hard to get it. There was only one reason! To understand the shipping routes and sabotage them to damage the relationship between the Qin Family and Leng Family. Unfortunately for them, their tricks have long been seen through by Leng Aozhou, who had informed Qin Ruomeng and Long Yuqing.
It seemed that the person who sent Manager Wang to steal the Haikou Trade Map was the same person who caused the accident on the highway before! Moreover, this person must have considerable backing, possibly related to the Jiulong Cup, and might even be responsible for Leng Xingfeng's death.
At this moment, Qin Ruomeng looked at Manager Wang and said coldly, "Who asked you to steal the Haikou Trade Map?"
Manager Wang could only shake his head instinctively: "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Qin Ruomeng instantly expressed dissatisfaction.
Ye Tianfan shook his head and replied, "Don't make it difficult for him. He really doesn't know."
Even Leng Aozhou couldn't figure out where this mysterious organization was, so how could a little Manager Wang get it straight?
The person who connected with him must have used some special means.
If Manager Wang had known who asked him to steal the Haikou Trade Map, he would probably have met his end the moment he got hold of it.
Manager Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained nervously: "My daughter is suffering from uremia and urgently needs money. That person... that person called and said that as long as I could get the Haikou Trade Map, they'd deposit money into my account, and all I needed to do was toss the Haikou Trade Map into a trash can on Star Forest Road."
While Manager Wang explained nervously, Ye Tianfan casually picked up one of the Haikou Trade Maps and handed it to him.
"Go ahead, take this map and complete your task. Then use the money for your daughter's treatment."
Ye Tianfan's words made Manager Wang suddenly freeze.
Now that the situation was exposed, Ye Tianfan still gave him the Haikou Trade Map. Why?
Terrified, Manager Wang trembled all over and quickly waved his hands to refuse. Turning to Qin Ruomeng, he pleaded, "Miss Qin, I know I was wrong. Please let me go this time. I have a wife and kids at home. I can't go to jail."
