Qin Zhiyou’s hand wavered slightly, causing the pool stick to skulk a little off course. The ball rolled to the side again. He furrowed his brow slightly, pushed it with the pool stick again and only then did the ball slide smoothly into the hole.
Mr. Li by the side chuckled, “I never thought Mr. Qin would also have moments where he drops the ball. This round is mine.”
Qin Zhiyou was not in the mood to entertain him, and simply nodded lightly, “My pool skills need more practice.”
He quickly strode out of the venue, immediately reaching out to his secretary Wang who had relayed the message, and quietly asked, “What happened?”
Secretary Wang almost jumped when he first got the news. But after learning the full story, he didn’t look as alarmed, “It’s alright now. Apparently, the scaffold set up by a worker was not secured properly and fell. The Young Madam wasn’t injured, she quickly processed the situation at the hospital and returned.”
“What do you mean by not secured properly, and what do you mean by it’s fine?” And she has even returned to work. He knew how dangerous the construction site can be — one incident could result in serious injuries or even death. She was lucky this time, but who knows what could happen next while working in such an unsafe place.
“Exactly as it sounds.” Secretary Wang handed over his phone. He saw a girl’s WeChat Moments, named “Orange Zhuqi”, with several pictures arranged in a grid on her timeline. Eight of them were her selfies, and only the last one showed Lu Weixi’s back view as she returned from the hospital. From the caption, she seemed to indicate that Lu Weixi encountered a dangerous situation, but fortunately, it was not serious. She had gone to the hospital and was now back at work.
Qin Zhiyou quickly picked up his own phone and clicked on her Moments — Lu Weixi’s Moments page was blank as snow. The last post was from several months ago, wishing her mother a happy birthday.
He went to her Weibo account through another ID, but it was just as pristine, and it seemed that she had not logged in for several months.
Qin Zhiyou turned his head, “Who is this ‘Orange Zhuqi’?”
Secretary Wang quickly responded, “She is the Young Madam’s assistant. I added her when I delivered things to the Young Madam. Young Master, you see I am so meticulous, about the 200 yuan penalty…”
Qin Zhiyou glanced at him indifferently, and then firmly refused, “Your word is your bond, you have to be fined for sure, but if you are willing to be diligent…” Secretary Wang quickly pledged his loyalty.
Although Wang said everything was fine, Qin Zhiyou sat in the wicker chair with his phone in hand, still slightly dazed, and penned a WeChat message after hesitating for a long time, “Is everything alright?” He hesitated for a long time without pressing send.
Yu Sixing by his side watched him frowning one moment and sighing the next, seemingly troubled and bewildered. It seems that he saw a small corner sticking out of his coat pocket, immediately taking it out to read, “Illegal parking notice slip, license plate number: Yan Z442214 …” (random fabrication)
Qin Zhiyou snatched it over. He Weiyou also looked surprised, “When did you get a car with such a plate number? And it’s a Chang’an Benni.”
Although wealthy people don’t consider themselves superstitious, they certainly wouldn’t use such a number plate. And a Chang’an Benni was too degrading, it wasn’t even as expensive as their pool sticks. Qin Zhiyou did not answer, he just folded the ticket and put it back in his pocket.. He turned back to see that the message he had edited earlier had actually been sent, and the message withdrawal time limit had passed, so Lu Weixi would definitely see it!
