My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 19 A gift from heaven
Tuk-tuk-tuk——

"Who?"

The security door of Room 27, Unit 2, Building 1004, Huayang Community was knocked.

Hearing the sound of shoes rubbing against the ground and the familiar voice of the company's boss, Nie Zefang, Zhuang Xiao slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Boss Nie, it's me, Zhuang Xiao."

His left hand was in his trouser pocket, his hand on the handle of a kitchen knife.

"Zhuang Xiao?"

The security door opened. Nie Zefang, who was wearing home clothes, was a little confused. "Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to accompany Mr. Shu this afternoon?"

Zhuang Xiao saw his puzzled expression clearly.

Many times you can get the answer you want simply from the reaction.

For example, if Nie Zefang didn't open the door, or his voice sounded nervous and his eyes were evasive, then Zhuang Xiao would know that he must have known that Shu Die was dead, and that it must be related to this matter.

But now his reactions are normal and need to be observed.

Zhuang Xiao said calmly: "I have something to talk to you about. Shall we go in and talk?"

Nie Zefang's expression suddenly became tense, while Zhuang Xiao remained calm on the surface. His left hand, which was in his trouser pocket, had already tightly grasped the hilt of the knife, and the muscles all over his body began to tense up, ready to attack at any time.

"Did you have a fight with Ms. Shu? Or did you offend her?"

Nie Zefang held his forehead helplessly, "She is the eldest daughter of Shushi Group, and she is usually strong and decisive. You just have to go along with her. What will I do if the acquisition of this company fails?"

As he said that, he turned his back and walked into the living room, "Come on, come in, I just happen to have something to ask you, remember to close the door."

Looking at his defenseless back facing away from her, Zhuang Xiao's eyes flickered, but in the end, she silently closed the security door and followed him in, "Do you want to change your shoes?"

"No need. I'm the only one at home, so why would I be so picky?"

Zhuang Xiao followed him to the living room and sat down. He found that there was barbecue ordered for takeout on the coffee table in his living room, and the World Cup qualifiers were playing on the TV wall.

Zhuang Xiao knew this. Mr. Nie originally had a wife, but they divorced three years ago and had no children. Since then, he has been busy with work and has been single until now.

As soon as he sat down, Nie Zefang asked worriedly, "You didn't make Mr. Shu angry, did you?"

Zhuang Xiao shook his head silently.

"That's good, that's good."

Nie Zefang breathed a sigh of relief, then asked curiously, "By the way, what is your relationship with Mr. Shu?"

Zhuang Xiao raised his head, his eyes deep, "What relationship?"

"Don't give me that." Nie Zefang picked up a kebab and handed it to him cheerfully. "I've been in society for so many years after all. Besides, I'm not blind. I can see that they're coming for you."

"We knew each other before."

Zhuang Xiao took the mutton skewers and put them aside. In fact, he had been looking at Nie Zefang's expression.

Although he didn't understand things like micro-expressions, he had worked in the other company for three years and saw them every day. He could still tell if the other party's reaction was abnormal.

But until now, everything has been too normal.

And the other party didn't seem to know that Shu Die was in trouble.

Zhuang Xiao glanced at the time in the upper left corner of the TV.

20 points.

In at most twenty minutes, he would rush to the home of the general manager of Luohua Property to implement the plan, because in twenty minutes Dong Zeyu and the other policemen would arrive. So Zhuang Xiao said nonchalantly, "Boss Nie, Boss Shu is not very happy today."

Nie Zefang's face suddenly tensed, "Did Ms. Shu say anything? I will correct it immediately!"

"There are two points. One is the problem with the air conditioner. She thinks it is a bit disrespectful to the employees' working environment if the air conditioner is broken and not repaired." Zhuang Xiao continued to test.

Nie Zefang's face turned bitter, and he sighed helplessly, "Alas, President Shu is so busy with her daily life that she naturally doesn't understand the sufferings of the people. The monthly electricity bill and property management fee are not a small amount. Besides, I asked Luo Wei to report the problem three days ago, but who knew he would wait until today to call the property management."

Zhuang Xiao's eyes suddenly narrowed, "Then when did our company's air conditioner break down?"

The company's air conditioner is rarely turned on. To be honest, he didn't even know when it broke down.

"Just three days ago." Nie Zefang glanced at Zhuang Xiao cautiously.

He didn't dare to treat Zhuang Xiao as just his employee now, because this person was "the emperor's favorite"! He was definitely the big boss of the East Factory!
Seeing Zhuang Xiao didn't say anything, Nie Zefang quickly added, "When I found out the air conditioner was broken, I asked Luo Wei to ask the property management to fix it. Luo Wei readily agreed, so I specifically told him that a big company wanted to acquire our company, and that a big shot from that company would come to inspect it in three days, so I told him to hurry up. Who knew he would delay until today!"

Zhuang Xiao stared at him, "Is that true?"

"It's true!" Nie Zefang said firmly.

Zhuang Xiao frowned, "Then why don't you ask the finance department to brief Mr. Shu on the situation today?"

"Well, our finance department asked Luo Wei for leave, and I thought it would only be one day, so tomorrow would be fine."

After saying this, Nie Zefang immediately realized that this was what President Shu asked for!
So he immediately patted his chest and promised, "We'll check it tomorrow morning! When Ms. Shu comes to the company tomorrow morning, I'll personally take her to check the accounts!"

What he said was true, so the company's finances were fine.

Or. He thinks it's okay.

Thinking of Dong Zeyu's master's call on the police, Zhuang Xiao asked again, "Is our Digital Building busy this afternoon?"

"Of course not." Nie Zefang perked up at the mention of this, and it was a good opportunity for him to pass on the blame. "You don't know, it turns out that not only our company's central air conditioning is broken, but all the air conditioning on the 20th floor is broken! In the afternoon, they were arguing with the property management about who should bear the repair costs, and later they called the police. They hadn't finished dealing with it when the company got off work."

Zhuang Xiao nodded and stood up, "Okay, I understand. Mr. Nie, Ms. Shu will not be staying at the hotel tonight. I will bring her directly to the company tomorrow."

"Okay, then you must say something nice to Mr. Shu."

Nie Zefang followed him to the door like a lackey.

"Boss Nie, there's no need to send me off. Just rest assured."

Nie Zefang's suspicion can be preliminarily ruled out.

If there was enough time, Zhuang Xiao wouldn't mind using some violent means, but now time is running out and he needs to know as much information as possible.

"Okay, I feel relieved with your words."
-
Downstairs in Unit 1, Building 3, Xinghua City, Zhuang Xiao, who had sneaked in with the delivery guy, looked up and counted the floors silently in his mind.

"Room 2104 on the st floor. The light is on."

Zhuang Xiao took out his cell phone and checked the time.

It's 20:40 now.

There are still ten minutes left.

Zhuang Xiao put away his phone and walked into a unit.

But just as he stepped into the apartment building, he suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground behind him.

Zhuang Xiao turned around suddenly and met a pair of frightened eyes with dilated pupils.

The owner of those eyes had his limbs twisted like a broken puppet, and scarlet liquid slowly spread around his body.
