Chapter 204: The Slightest Trickster, What is There to Fear?_1
“Vice President Luo, you need to focus more on the project lately.”
Zhou Kai also felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he took the initiative to speak up.
“Please rest assured, Chairman, I understand the significance of this project for the group. Now I only sleep three to four hours a day; the rest of my ti is spent on work,” Luo Hao imdiately pledged his loyalty to him.
It must be said that his acting was quite good.
If it weren’t for Tang Feng’s early warning, even Zhou Kai would not have noticed anything amiss.
“Hahaha, I’ve always been confident in Vice President Luo’s loyalty and work capability, otherwise, I wouldn’t have promoted you to vice president against all opposition. Right?” Zhou Kai said calmly, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the table.
“The trust you have in , Chairman, I, Luo Hao, cannot repay with any asure, other than to do well in the tasks you’ve entrusted and not to embarrass you,” Luo Hao responded with a grateful expression, appearing very sincere.
“That’s good, that’s good. If everyone were as loyal as you, I could sleep peacefully at night,” Zhou Kai said aningfully, his eyes still fixed on Luo Hao’s eyes.
“Hahaha, Chairman, you jest. Under your leadership, everyone in the group is utterly loyal,” Luo Hao said, laughing along.
“Not necessarily, right?”
With that one sentence, Zhou Kai instantly made the atmosphere in the private room very tense.
Luo Hao’s smile froze on his face, his gaze quickly sweeping over the others in the room.
Seeing the odd expressions on everyone’s faces, he couldn’t help but feel an ominous premonition.
Zhou Kai did not care what he thought and continued, “Just now, Tang helped do a little calculation and told that lately, I am fatefully troubled by a ‘petty person’.”
“And this ‘petty person’ is very likely within our group.”
Luo Hao’s face changed dramatically as he stood up abruptly, “What? Are you suggesting that there is soone in the group who is a traitor?”
Zhou Kai’s mouth curled up with a faint smile, “Vice President Luo indeed has a strong understanding. I rely ntioned that I am troubled by a ‘petty person,’ without specifying what kind of ‘petty person,’ and you imdiately knew that it ans soone is a traitor.”
Luo Hao chuckled and waved his hand, “It’s not that I have a particularly high understanding, it’s just that if there’s a ‘petty person’ within the group, it’s most likely a traitor, I can’t think of anything else.”
Zhou Kai poured him a cup of tea, “Yes, Tang just helped calculate that there might be a traitor within the group, possibly undermining our major plans. What do you think we should do?”
“Chairman, leave this matter to . I guarantee I will investigate thoroughly and will not give such ‘petty people’ any opportunity to exploit,” Luo Hao imdiately reassured Zhou Kai.
Tang Feng watched his splendid performance and couldn’t help but feel like applauding.
This guy was in the wrong profession. If he beca an actor, he might even win Best Actor awards or sothing.
“Hahaha, with Vice President Luo handling this, I couldn’t be more reassured,” Zhou Kai’s acting was equally comndable, showing no traces of a performance, “Go ahead and investigate freely, starting with first, and we mustn’t let any suspicious individual go unnoticed.”
Luo Hao hurriedly gestured, “Do we need to investigate you though? You are the Chairman, how could you betray the company?”
“We can’t say that. Because I am the Chairman, I should set an example. Only by scrutinizing myself first can others have no complaints.”
Zhou Kai also adopted a righteous deanor.
Tang inwardly curled his lip; these businesspeople were all cunning foxes.
Zhou Kai’s tactic of retreating in order to advance was very slick indeed.
With the Chairman himself declaring his position, what else could Luo Hao say? He could only go along with, “If that’s what you say, then… investigate as well.”
Zhou Kai had been waiting for exactly this response, imdiately nodding, “Good, even though I’m a thousand tis confident in you, this is also to shut the naysayers up, and to avoid idle gossip.”
“Yes, yes,” Luo Hao’s expression was a bit unnatural, “Then… who will be investigating ?”
Zhou Kai hesitated for a mont, then turned to Tang Feng, “Tang, could you do Mr. Zhou this favor?”
The main reason was that he also didn’t know where to start.
Since Tang Feng could figure out that the traitor was Luo Hao, he must also be able to deduce more.
“Alright, then I will respectfully comply,” Tang reluctantly accepted the hot potato and turned to Luo Hao, “I’ll ask you a few questions now, and I hope you’ll answer truthfully.”
“Hahaha, ask away, I guarantee full disclosure,” Luo Hao said, looking magnanimous as he took a sip of his tea.
In his heart, he really did breathe a sigh of relief.
If Zhou Kai personally interrogated him, he might have been sowhat panicked.
After all, having worked under Zhou Kai for so long, the latter knew him very well, making it easy to slip up.
But if it were Tang Feng, then there’d be no issue.
What did he have to fear from a swindler who had appeared out of nowhere?
“How many won do you have?”
The first question Tang Feng asked was earth-shattering.
Luo Hao was initially taken aback, then sowhat displeased, “What kind of question is this? What does this have to do with the company’s affairs?”
“I have my reasons for asking this, you just need to answer truthfully,” Tang Feng said, looking at him expressionlessly.
Luo Hao turned to look at Zhou Kai, seeing that he had no intention of stopping the question.
A bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
He felt as if he was trapped in a banquet set especially for him.
But by this point, it was too late for regrets.
Still, he did not take Tang Feng seriously.
With his years of experience in business, dealing with a swindler was a simple task.
“I’ve been married for over a decade, and I’m very loving with my wife. We also have a six-year-old daughter who is in the first grade…”
Without waiting for Tang Feng’s inquiry, he voluntarily recited his family status in full detail.
“I didn’t ask you about that. I simply asked you, how many won do you have?”
Tang Feng repeated his question.
His piercing eyes seed like they could see through one’s heart.
