Chapter 528 - 528: A Keen Sense For Danger
The butler saw Yin Xun standing beside Fang Yao, and he froze for a moment. He looked at the unnatural expressions of the two of them and seemed to understand something. He had a smile on the corners of his lips as he placed the box in his hand on the table. He said to Yin Xun, “Miss Yin, this is the specialty product that our Young Master asked his friend to bring for you. I have prepared it. Have a taste.”
“Oh, okay. Thank you,” Yin Xun replied and walked to the opposite side of Fang Yao.
The butler saw that Fang Yao’s expression was a little unpleasant, and a look of self-blame appeared on his face. He shot Fang Yao a look, indicating for him to try his best. Then, he quickly went out and gently closed the door.
“It seems that our young master is a little enlightened. Sigh, it would have been better if 1 entered a little later. 1 hope 1 won’t disturb the young master again.
If only the two of them could make some progress…” The butler muttered softly and walked downstairs.
At this moment, his heart was in a mess. He was even more nervous than the two people in the study, afraid that he had ruined the atmosphere.
After the butler left, Yin Xun took a bite of the specialty food that he had just brought over. It was indeed delicious.
After she started eating, it was as if nothing had happened. Yin Xun straightened her expression and asked Fang Yao, “Why are you showing me Dai Ning’s background? Her parents are indeed impressive, but is there anything wrong?”
Fang Yao looked at her quietly. He did not expect Yin Xun to recover so quickly. He sighed in his heart. Yin Xun was acting so casual now, which meant that she did not think too much about it. He did not know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.
“The important information is at the back,” Fang Yao said to Yin Xun. “Didn’t you say that Dai Ning was injected with drugs? 1 sent someone to investigate. We concluded that the most suspicious person at the moment is her cousin.” “Her cousin?” Yin Xun was a little surprised. What was going on?
She recalled Dai Ning’s situation in the original text. It seemed that she did have a cousin who owed a lot of money from gambling. Her cousin’s parents had passed away when he was very young. It had always been Dai Ning’s parents who spent money to take care of him. Even a large portion of his debts was repaid by Dai Ning’s family.
However, because he was not an important character, the original text only mentioned it briefly. Dai Ning seemed to dislike this cousin of hers. That was all she knew. There were no other details.
Fang Yao said, “That’s right. Dai Ning’s parents don’t care about her cousin anymore. He didn’t have money to pay off his debts, so he targeted Dai Ning and tried to drag her down so that he could use Dai Ning to get money. The police are also paying attention to him now. Even if he did do it, there’s no way to arrest him because there’s no conclusive evidence.”
“Alright, 1 know what to do.” Yin Xun nodded.
Fang Yao had already done her a huge favor by helping her investigate. Now that she knew who the culprit was, she would settle things.
Fang Yao knew Yin Xun’s personality. Seeing that Yin Xun did not bother to ask him for help, he did not persist. Instead, he changed the topic. “Has Blue Fox made any moves recently?”
“They’ve already sorted out the inside. If I’m not wrong, they should be starting to challenge Xintao. Yesterday, 1 heard that the Vice President of Blue Fox contacted the bosses of the couriers. Later, those bosses called Lechang Express again and tactfully threatened the person in charge of Lechang to work with them. Those couriers have always been working with Blue Fox. If they do this, people will naturally figure out Blue Fox’s intention. It’s too obvious.”
“Delivery is the lifeline of shopping websites. As long as they have a stronghold on the delivery, it will be easy to deal with Xintao,” Fang Yao said with a smile. “It’s just that they probably don’t know that you have bought ownership of both Xintao Delivery and Lechang Express.”
Yin Xun also smiled and said, “Maybe it’s because Xintao Express is too popular now. Everyone is focusing on Xintao Express, which mainly focuses on expensive, fast, and quality services. They must have thought that if they roped in Lechang, only Xintao Express would be left. With the current purchasing power of Xintao users, our delivery system will collapse. But what they don’t know is that even without Lechang, Xintao isn’t worried about the large number of orders now. I’ve already upgraded it. In any case, they can’t touch Lechang, so there’s no need to worry about it.”
“You have a keen sense for business dangers,” Fang Yao said.
“Of course. After all, I’ve seen so many such things in the past.” Yin Xun shrugged.
Fang Yao raised his eyebrows.. “In the past?”
