Chapter 308: Impasse

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Even if Secretary Xu did something that harmed the interests of the Wan Corporation, would Wan Zhe not want to kill him?”

Yin Tao’s question was very specific. She didn’t want to let go of the slightest possibility. In her heart, Wan Zhe was indeed the number one suspect who plotted to kill Xu Rui. Zhang Rui’s answer was really something Yin Tao didn’t expect.

“I don’t think so. Moreover, with my understanding of Secretary Xu, he won’t do anything to harm Wan Zhe’s interests. Wan Zhe and Secretary Xu have known each other for much longer than they have known me. Their relationship has always been very good.

1 can tell that Wan Zhe valued and cared about Secretary Xu very much.”

Zhang Rui was not lying. In her opinion, Secretary Xu was very capable at work. Wan Zhe had always been very comfortable about leaving business and personal matters to Xu Rui.

Zhang Rui’s words negated all of Yin Tao’s previous guesses. Her investigation into the Wan Corporation seemed to have reached an impasse.

“Xiaotao, your purpose in coming to the Wan Corporation is to investigate if Wan Zhe had something to do with Secretary Xu’s death?”

…..

Yin Tao nodded, affirming Zhang Rui’s question.

“Although 1 don’t know what’s suspicious about Secretary Xu’s death, I know Wan Zhe’s personality relatively well. He doesn’t seem to be someone who would kill his friends.” Zhang Rui aptly classified Xu Rui as Wan Zhe’s friend because the way the two of them interacted was more than a superior and subordinate.

Zhang Rui could tell that Wan Zhe actually had a good relationship with Xu Rui. The two of them could be considered good friends.

“I understand. Thank you for telling me this.” Yin Tao felt that there might be some problems with the angle of her investigation. If the truth was really as Zhang Rui had described, the possibility of Wan Zhe killing Xu Rui was indeed very small.

Yin Tao had also heard praises about Wan Zhe in the Wan Corporation these few days.

Yin Tao could tell the difference between flattery and sincere praise. The employees of the Wan Corporation really admired their boss. Wan Zhe was indeed capable in certain aspects.

The reason Yin Tao treated Wan Zhe as the number one suspect was purely because of the influence of the original novel on her.

As the villainous character who kept going against the male and female protagonists in the original novel, Yin Tao had a huge prejudice against Wan Zhe. Now, it seemed that there were many things that were different from the content of the original novel.

“If you really want to thank me, help me pick out a few outfits later.” Zhang Rui winked playfully at Yin Tao and added in a low voice, “It’s best if it’s the type your brother will like.”

“Alright, I’ll definitely help you dress up as my brother’s ideal type.” Yin Tao looked helplessly at Zhang Rui, who had an expectant expression. It seemed that she was determined to pursue Yin Hao.

The car quickly pulled up at the largest shopping street in City A. Yin Tao followed Zhang Rui out of the car. The seven or eight burly men behind the two of them were really conspicuous.

“Zhang Rui, are you sure we want to go shopping like this?” Yin Tao could feel the curious and frightened gazes of the passers-by.

“Xiaotao, 1 have no choice. My father gave me an ultimatum. He didn’t allow me to go out alone, nor did he allow the bodyguards to be more than ten meters away from me.”

Zhang Rui shrugged her shoulders helplessly. She had been frightened by the kidnapping previously, so she did not reject Zhang Wei’s offer to engage so many bodyguards for her.

Now, even if Zhang Rui wanted to go out alone, Zhang Wei wouldn’t agree.

“Stay away from me and Xiaotao. It’s not easy for us to meet. I don’t want to be disturbed,” Zhang Rui ordered the lead bodyguard.

Hearing Zhang Rui’s words, a few men in black who were more than 1.8 meters tall consciously retreated a little, but they were not more than ten meters away.

Yin Tao looked at the group of bodyguards who still had an extremely strong presence not far away and had no other choice.

“Let’s go back after buying the clothes. With so many bodyguards, people who didn’t know better might think that we’re celebrities.” Yin Tao wasn’t used to this feeling, but with Zhang Rui by her side, she could only accept being followed by such a group of people.

Zhang Rui happily held Yin Tao’s arm. Ever since she was kidnapped, Zhang Rui rarely went out shopping. On the one hand, she was still a little traumatized, and on the other hand, her father was really worried.

If he hadn’t heard that she was going shopping with Yin Tao, Zhang Wei might not have agreed.

“Alright, I brought my father’s card today. Xiaotao, choose whatever you like. There’s no limit to my father’s card..”
