Chapter 231: Narrowing The Suspects
Not long after, Jia Hao and Su Yunqi arrived at the Blue Crystal Company.
” Wow, Hao’er. Your driving skill is getting more and more better.” Su Yunqi spoke in a surprised voice.
” Hehe, Not really. I still can’t beat most racers.” Jia Hao shook his head.
” Ugh, Hao’er, I won’t permit you for that.” Su Yunqi berated him lightly. ” Car is for traveling. Why do you need to go at high speed? I don’t want anything to happen to you.”
” Your parents also…”
Su Yunqi paused as she looked outside with a sigh. Jia Hao huffed as he placed his palm on Su Yunqi’s palm. ” I know what you mean, Mother.”
” Don’t worry…Nothing will happen to me.” Jia Hao smiled as he got out from his car. Walking to the other side, he opened the door for Su Yunqi, taking her out of his Imperial with elegance.
” Huh? Is that Lady Su?”
” Whoa, Who was that young man with him?”
” She is looking so pretty today.”
Su Yunqi maintained a stoic face as she walked into the building with Jia Hao. However, Jia Hao could see the faint crimson hue on her cheeks.
” Well, If you want to blush, you can blush, Mother.” Jia Hao jested.
” No need. ” Su Yunqi gave a light glare to her. ” Ahem, I still have to maintain an image here, alright?”
As they entered the building, everyone kept giving curious glances towards Jia Hao.
Not long after, Su Yunqi’s secretary and two more ladies appeared there.
” Oh my, Boss, You are here.”
” Boss, Who is this handsome young man besides you?”
” Hehe, Don’t tell me you finally decided to have a relationship…”
” He is my nephew and step son.” Su Yunqi gave them a placid stare.
” Hello, Beautiful ladies. I am Jia Hao. I am currently studying at Azure Sea High School.” Jia Hao smiled at them.
” Hehe, Little Brother, You can call me Sister Qi’er. I am the secretary of your CEO Su.” Qi’er stepped forward and shook hands with Jia Hao.
” My name is Fu Ning, I am from designing department.”
” About me, You can call me An Luan. I work in the PR department along with some other stuff.”
Su Yunqi kept staring at them as she saw all three of them shaking hands with Jia Hao.
But strange enough, each takes more time than the last one.
” Well, If the introductions have ended, can we work now?”
” Ah, Yes, Boss.”
” Qi’er, An Luan, Come to my office. Fu Ning…”
” Little Brother, Shall I tour you around?” Fun Ning looked at Jia Hao and spoke first.
” I can be a pretty good tour guide, you know?”
” Is that so?” Jia Hao nodded. ” Very well, I shall trust you then, Sister Ning.”
” Wow, I haven’t even finished my sentence and…” Su Yunqi looked at Fu Ning’s eagerness as she sighed.
” Do as you please.”
” Hehe, Thank you, Boss.” Fu Ning winked Su Yunqi as she giggled.
Jia Hao also saw how Qi’er and An Luan looked at Fu Ning with a tinge of jealousy.
It was as if Fu Ning was a cunning fox who managed to steal the pot of honey.
Giving a triumphant smile, Fu Ning held Jia Hao and dragged him away.
” Tsk, Fu Ning is using her charm again, huh?”
” Hmph, She is just loafing around.” An Luan scowled a bit.
” Both of you, Calm down.” Su Yunqi rubbed her forehead. ” Come to my office right now.”
” Yes, Boss.”

” Sister Ning, You are really pretty. You must have a lots of suitors, no?” Jia Hao asked in a curious voice.
” Ohoho, Little Brother is right. There are quite some suitors. But I always keep them at bay.” Fu Ning spoke in a cheerful tone.
” Besides, I am not in the mood for a relationship. For the next two years, I only want to focus on my career.”
” Though…” Fu Ning’s voice trailed off as she looked at Jia Hao.
” I won’t mind if someone hot as you ask me out.”
” Hehe, Sister Ning, I am taking the University Exam next year. Your words are pretty distracting.”
” Whoa! You aren’t even twenty yet?” Fu Ning was surprised.
‘ Fuck, Isn’t that like…an old cow wanting to eat young grass?”
” Wait, I am not an old cow! I am a sexy and mature cow.’
‘ Besides, he already crossed the legal age. Our age gap isn’t that bad…’
” Sister Ning…” Jia Hao called her out as he pointed at a hall. ” Is that the Designing Department?”
” Ahh!?”
Fu Ning rubbed her cheeks as she nodded. ” Yes, This is our department. Here, we craft all sorts of designs for our company. From jewellery to treasures.”
” Come with me, I will show you a lot of new things.”
” Sure, Sister Ning.” While leading Jia Hao inside, Fu Ning couldn’t help but mumble inside her head.
‘ Damn, Why am I having so much naughty thoughts today? Jia Hao…Ugh, He is so attractive, I can’t calm my heart around him.’
‘ Fu Ning, I told you to stop reading those smut novels. Now you are getting horny by the looks of a teenager.’
‘ Mmm…But maybe…You know…MAYBE…’
‘ Ahem, Let’s calm down.’
” So, Sister Ning…” Jia Hao looked at her with a smile. ” Why don’t you surprise me?”
” Ohoho, You asked the right question, Little Brother.” Fu Ning’s eyes sparkled. ” With the expansion of our company and the supply of top quality materials, we were planning to launch a new set of jewellery.”
” We shall name it…Leisure of Chang’e.”
” Leisure of Chang’e?” Jia Hao rubbed his chin. ” That sounds impressive. Can I see it?”
” Well, It’s a top secret project.” Fu Ning’s eyes become serious. ” Not many know about this.”
” Oh?”
” But… I am extra generous today. So, I can show you…” Fu Ning winked at Jia Hao, making him speechless.
” Is this handsome privilege?” Jia Hao smirked.
” I don’t know…Maybe?” Fu Ning gave a seductive smile as she turned around and showed some designs.
” Here, We tried to use some traditional designs for this new set. For example, this charm bracelet has a hanging jade moon, with small diamonds as stars around it.”
” And this is a necklace shall be decorated with pearls with green jades as background.”
Jia Hao had to admit when he saw the set of jewelry. The designs were pretty intricate and it evoked a sense of purity. It was perfect to be called as Leisure of Chang’e.
” Well, Let’s say…In a hypothetical situation…” Jia Hao looked at Fu Ning. ” What if the designs got stolen?”
” Hmm?” Fu Ning looked at Jia Hao. ” That’s impossible.”
” I know. But I am just asking…What if, it happens?” Jia Hao looked at her. ” Since there are not many who have access to the complete designs, the list of suspects would narrow down, yes?”
” Ah, That’s true though. There are only a handful of people who can pull it off.” Fu Ning realized that Jia Hao didn’t have any malicious intentions and simply asking from a security perspective.
” That would be me, the head of the executive department, the head of the designing department, CEO Su, and one or two others.” Fu Ning replied.
Jia Hao noted the name in his mind. After all, he knew someone going to steal the designs in three days. That means they must have done some sort of deal with the rival company.
‘ In such deals, it’s natural that they will receive a great amount of money at once. Since I have narrowed down the suspects, it would be easy for me to check their recent future points.”
He believed that he would be able to get the culprit pretty easily. As for finding evidence, it can be done afterward.
