Chapter 277: Listening

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I don’t think so. Senior seemed to have something to handle at home during that period of time. President Wan is quite busy here. He had wanted to take this opportunity to introduce me to President Wan.”

Yin Tao wasn’t convinced by what Secretary Zhang said.

In Yin Tao’s opinion, Xu Rui might have been busy because of some family matters. However, he wouldn’t be thinking of recommending his junior at such a critical time.

“Yeah, Brother Xu is always so considerate towards others.” Yin Tao sighed thinking of Xu Rui ‘s kindness.

Secretary Zhang also echoed her words. He seemed to be equally regretful and sad about Xu Rui’s death.

After entering the President’s office, Secretary Zhang walked straight to Wan Zhe’s desk and picked up a document to read.

Yin Tao stood by the side and sized up the office. The color scheme of the entire room was mainly black and gray.

The walls of the office were made of a special material. One could see the outside from the inside, but not vice versa. Wan Zhe’s desk was by the window, and Secretary Zhang’s position was not far from the office door, so Wan Zhe could call him in at any time.

There was nothing unusual in the room. Wan Zhe’s items were organized in an orderly manner, and they looked like common office items.

“Give this report to Supervisor He from the secretarial department. Help me send the rest to the finance department for review.” Secretary Zhang was about to hand the documents he had inspected to Yin Tao when the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

“Hello, President Chen.” Secretary Zhang’s voice was professional and emotionless, but he sounded very polite.

“Alright, please wait a moment for me to confirm.” Secretary Zhang took his phone and walked out of the office. Yin Tao could clearly see Secretary Zhang checking some documents in the office.

Although the door wasn’t closed, Yin Tao knew that Secretary Zhang wouldn ‘t notice her at this moment.

Yin Tao walked to Wan Zhe’s seat as quickly as possible and quickly opened the drawers to check the items inside.

What surprised Yin Tao was that the drawers of Wan The’s desk were not locked, and there were nothing unusual inside. She checked Wan Zhe’s desk while keeping an eye on Secretary Zhang, who was still checking some documents outside.

Yin Tao accidentally knocked the fountain pen on the table to the ground and hurriedly squatted down to pick it up. Fortunately, she was petite. Even if the fountain pen fell into the gap of the table, Yin Tao could still reach in to pick it up.

Just as Yin Tao was about to stand up after retrieving the fountain pen, she accidentally touched a small bulge in the gap of the table.

Following the gap, Yin Tao looked inside and actually made an unexpected discovery.

As she was worried that Secretary Zhang would return at any moment, Yin Tao calmed down and put the fountain pen back in its place.

Standing in her original position, her mind was constantly thinking about what she had just touched. Because of Yin Tao’s work in the police station, she was not unfamiliar with the small round button just now. The thing in the gap between Wan Zhe’s desk was a mini listening device used for eavesdropping.

Why was there a bug under Wan The’s desk? Yin Tao didn’t understand, but if it weren’t for her relatively thin figure, she wouldn’t have been able to see the bug in the gap.

With Wan Zhe’s height, it was not easy for him to squat in the empty space just now.

It seemed that the person who installed the eavesdropping equipment was very vigilant and had enough time to enter Wan Zhe’s office.

“I’m sorry, I’ve taken the documents I need. Let’s go.” Secretary Zhang returned to the office. Perhaps because Yin Tao knew Xu Rui, his attitude towards Yin Tao was much better than before.

Stepping into the elevator, Secretary Zhang looked at Yin Tao, who was in a daze, and instructed her, “Xiaojiang, if you have any questions in the future, you can look for me. If my senior was around, he would definitely have taken care of you.”

Yin Tao understood that Secretary Zhang’s enthusiasm for her was because of Xu Rui, but she didn’t decline his good intentions. It was a good thing for her to get to know another person in the Wan Corporation.

“Secretary Zhang, is it hard to work for President Wan?” Yin Tao looked at Secretary Zhang curiously. “l think President Wan always seems very fierce. Does he lose his temper with you?”

Yin Tao’s question didn’t sound strange. In Secretary Zhang’s opinion, it was just the young girl’s curiosity about the company’s boss.

“No, President Wan is very serious about his work and treats his subordinates well.”

Yin Tao didn’t directly refute Secretary Zhang’s words. Instead, she muttered in confusion, “Is that so? But I feel that Brother Xu has always been working hard in the past. I thought it was because his boss wasn’t easy to please..”
