Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Hao Ren never expected things would be like this. He had thought Zhao Yanzi and her parents would go directly to the administrative office. To his astonishnt, a sedan was sent to pick him up.
“Maybe, is it an invitation to my own funeral, or a disguised kidnap?”
“Whatever it is, I don’t think they will harm .” After a mont of consideration, Hao Ren stepped into the car.
Bang! Bang!
The car doors closed.
His three dormmates stared at the luxury sedan in astonishnt. From what they knew about him, Hao Ren ca from an ordinary background. They wondered what he had done to be taken away like this.
The black sedan drove out of campus without incidents.
On the way, Hao Ren restrained himself from asking the n sitting on either side of him any questions, He believed that he would get answers when he got to the destination.
While the sedan drove forward smoothly, a sense of heroic tragedy rose in him as if he would never co back.
After about half an hour of traveling through half of East Ocean City, the car ca to the busy downtown.
A skyscraper with seventy floors ca into Hao Ren’s view. On top of the building, there was a huge sign with two large words in it–Mingri Group.
Listed on NASDAQ in the United States, Mingri Group was one of the biggest business groups in China and undoubtedly a business empire in East Ocean City.
“Sir, please get off the car.” When the sedan stopped at the gate of the skyscraper, the two n got off and opened the door for Hao Ren.
Glancing up at the skyscraper, Hao Ren was a bit dizzy. After he got off the car, he was ushered into the building by one of the n.
The receptionist, as beautiful as a movie star, glanced at the n and smiled. She didn’t ask them to register and opened the security pathway for them.
Hao Ren was suddenly struck with a wave of nervousness.
The man led Hao Ren into an elevator before pressing on number 75, the top floor of the building.
The elevator rode up speedily while Hao Ren stared at the serious man silently.
“Who on earth is these n’s ‘master’? Who can work in a place like this?”
Ding!
The elevator reached the top floor.
The gates of the elevator slid open, and Hao Ren was greeted with bright red rugs, a golden lobby, and magnificent chandeliers…
The lobby was as luxurious as a five-star hotel.
The man was still silent when he led Hao Ren out of the elevator and ushered him forward.
He stopped outside of an office room with a sign that read “President’s Office”.
Knocking on the door, he raised his voice, “Master, here he is.”
“Bring him in.” a dignified but fatigued voice ca from the room.
The man opened the door and ushered Hao Ren into the room.
A big magnificent office room with an area of at least 200 square ters ca into Hao Ren’s view
A man with a crew cut and a square face locked his intense eyes on Hao Ren.
Also, he was flanked by four serious-looking n who were all in black suits.
“Is it on him?” He asked the man who had ushered in Hao Ren.
“It is. I can feel it,” the man answered carefully.
“Zi told everything. I won’t cause trouble for you if you hand it over now,” the man who seed to be the president gazed at Hao Ren and said.
“I don’t have it,” grinding his teeth, Hao Ren said.
Without further ado, the square-faced man spat out two words, “Search him.”
Four n jumped out and quickly grabbed Hao Ren’s arms and shoulders while the man who brought Hao Ren here began to search him in a very professional manner.
Hao Ren knew he had fallen into the “tiger’s den”, but he was sure they could do nothing to him when they found nothing on him.
As he predicted, the man found nothing when he finished the first round of searching. When he began the second round, his smooth movents beca stiff.
He raised his head with alarm, “Master…”
“I’ve told you many tis not to call Master. Call Boss!” The square-faced man was incensed.
“Yes. Boss.” The man pointed at Hao Ren, “The thing…from Ms. Zi is in his stomach.”
The square-faced man froze while the others’ faces also changed expressions.
“Summon the elders.” After so considerations, the square-faced man ordered.
“Yes!” Eight of the nine n in the room walked out, and only one was left standing beside the square-faced man.
“Pick up Zi from the school.” The Square-faced man told the man beside him.
“Yes!” The man took the order and was out of the room imdiately.
Now only Hao Ren and the square-faced man were left in the room.
“My na is Zhao Guang. What is your na?” The square-faced man gazed at Hao Ren and asked.
“Hao Ren,” Hao Ren answered.
“Ah, Hao Ren, Good Person. This matter got tricky, and you have to stay here a little longer,” he continued, still looking at Hao Ren
“Ok.” Hao Ren’s face didn’t show the confusion he felt. He couldn’t remain calm while there was so object in his stomach, especially when the object seed to be related to the tattoo.
“Take a seat.” Zhao Guang pointed at the seats beside him.
Hao Ren walked over and sat on a leather sofa. Through the glass of the room, he had a complete view of East Ocean City and even a glimpse of the sea in the distance.
They kept silent while ti clicked away.
About half hour later, people began to hurry in. They all looked confused and anxious.
A little later, accompanied by a man, Zhao Yanzi walked in.
When she saw Hao Ren, she snorted with contempt. Of course, Hao Ren responded likewise.
“Zi, don’t make that expression. It was all your fault,” Zhao Guang scolded Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi pursed her lips, looking defiant.
Shortly, more than a dozen people ca into the big office room.
“Since everyone is here, let’s go in for the eting. Zi, co in too,” after looking around, Zhao Guang said with a serious expression.
A hidden door opened automatically, and a small eting room that was connected to the office room was revealed.
While people began to walk into the eting room, Zhao Guang turned to Hao Ren and said, “Please sit here for a while and wait for the results of the eting.”
Hao Ren had no choice but to nod his head in agreent. After all, it was not a good feeling when you had an unnad object in your stomach.
He hoped those people could find a way to take the bead out of him without surgery.
Alone in the spacious and luxurious office, he looked down at the city, feeling like he was sitting on the clouds.
