C14 Stand-off

In Director Zhu's office in Hua Rong Enterprise, Zhu Zhushan was flipping through a stack of thick documents. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Zhu Zhu Zhu Rong didn't even raise his head as he called out to her. His voice didn't carry a single trace of emotion.

"As a good businessman, I would never allow my prey to be taken away. I think there's something you should tell me, or something you shouldn't interfere in. "

As soon as the strange mantra came out, Zhu Zhirong immediately stopped what she was doing and raised her head to look. As expected, he saw the person he expected. It was a man who was as beautiful as a demon. A young man with an elegant and luxurious temperament was standing at the door, causing the hearts of the women outside to pound.

"Close the door." Zhu Zhuyan coldly swept her eyes at the men and women who were continuously looking in through the door, her face filled with infatuation.

The pretty boy did cooperate, even locking the door after closing it.

Zhu Zhu Zhu Rong closed the door behind him, stood up from his seat, and performed a standard noble salute towards the American man. He said in a deep voice, "Greetings to the Marquis of Truman. My lord is well."

It was Han Bin Hao, the current mayor of Midtown, Truman Cartagena.

"No, Santa." Han Bin Hao stood in front of Zhu Zhanyun, and with a mocking smile, he said, "You are His Highness's man. Since you've bowed to me, shouldn't I kneel down for you to take it back?"

"Lord, you must be joking." Zhu Zhu Zhu Bajie walked around the office desk and pulled out the chair opposite his original seat. He gestured at Han Bin Hao to invite him in, as if he understood Han Bin Hao's intention, and said, "Last time in the underground casino, I was only thinking of my own safety. Just now, the reason I let you shut the door was to prevent others from seeing."

Han Bin Hao smiled and sat down. Zhu Zhu Zhu helped him sit down, and under Han Bin Hao's instructions, he returned to his seat and sat upright. The two of them looked at each other in silence.

Zhu Zhu Chi was waiting for the other party's question, calculating the time in his heart. Roughly eleven seconds later, Han Bin Hao's voice sounded from the other side, "I only came here to ask you a question."

"I will answer truthfully, esteemed Marquis." Zhu Zhurong crossed his arms as Han Bin Hao's expression turned serious. His jade-green eyes were staring intently at Zhu Zhanyun, as if he wanted to make a hole in his face before he was willing to give up. Zhu Zhilan did not avoid him in the slightest, and instead stared back at him, sizing him up.

After a long while, Han Bin Hao's voice slowly asked, "Where are the two of them?"

"This is the Black Myrtle Red Bamboo that I brought from the Saint. It is made from the finest Black Myrtle Red Bamboo and has the ability to clear one's spirit." Zhu Zhurong avoided the answer cleverly as she passed the brewed tea to Han Bin Hao while pondering. There was an indifferent smile on his face. After Han Bin Hao's expression turned cold, he slowly asked, "Which two are they referring to?"

Han Bin Hao pursed his lips into a line and took the teacup. After he carefully examined it for a bit, he coldly snorted and said, "It seems like you didn't just bring the tea leaves from the Holy Spirit. This feeling, this pattern, it came from the palace. The decorative design on the chassis is the mark of His Highness, this is His Highness' special tea set right? "

"Yes, it is His Highness' most beloved tea set."

"Then you want to use the tea set bestowed by His Highness to warn me?" Han Bin Hao raised his eyebrows and took a sip of tea. Without waiting for Zhu Zhuyan to open his mouth, he continued, "As an outstanding merchant, I have never lacked basic information on goods. I have to admit, this tea is worthy of the title 'Demon Queen'. I am curious about the effects of Spirit Cleansing, and whether it is to remind you not to laugh with me, or to remind me, Truman, to not pursue this matter. "

Han Bin Hao paused for a moment and continued, "You should still use this tea set to warn me that you are His Highness' man."

His Highness was very protective, and everyone knew it. Han Bin Hao fiddled with the teacup and judged in his heart that the teacup was one of His Highness' treasured toys. Now that he gave the tea set to Santa, it could be seen that he was unable to move it.

"How dare you, how dare you!" Master said it in such a general manner, how could I possibly know? However, this Black Mandrel Red Bamboo is one of Santa's favorite tea leaves. In addition to being the director of this place, it would inevitably hurt my mind and mind. That's why I took it out to drink, waking my mind up. " Zhu Zhuyan saw the cold glint in Han Bin Hao's eyes and shrugged. She muttered to herself, "If you think I'm trying to wake you up, then so be it."

Zhu Zhirong naturally did not say this out loud, nor did she dare to say it out loud. He explained to Han Bin with a smile, "Recently, as the mayor, I've been busy with official business and took the time to visit this useless girl. In order to comfort the mayor, I've naturally served this tea."

"Enough!" Han Bin Hao slammed his teacup onto the table, causing a crisp sound to ring out. Inwardly, he felt that he could no longer beat around the bush with the person in front of him, so he directly said, "Joyce Leng and Osmond Suge, do you know where they are?"

"With the current level of technology, is there a need to ask me personally if you want to find an adult?"

Zhu Zhu Zhu asked calmly, which actually made Han Bin feel annoyed. Of course he knew about this! But no matter how he searched, as long as there was any information regarding the two of them, it would be like a stone sinking into the ocean. No matter how hard he searched, the energy detector that had been activated the entire time, as well as their bank accounts, were completely silent! Oh, except, of course, that one time in the underground casino, but that one time, I still couldn't find them!

And two years ago, after Osmond wreaked havoc at his bar mitzvah, Joyce went missing with him. Even more infuriating to Han Bin Hao was that the holy sect and the king actually ignored him and ordered that no one was allowed to bring up this matter again.

This was too strange! However, this concealment actually lasted two years! The king and the church did not react for two years, as if nothing had happened!

What confused him even more was that the Holy See and the monarch had spent a lot of time and effort to bring a piece of goods to the center of the city. His sixth sense told him that this matter definitely had something to do with Joyce and Osmond.

"Answer me!"

Han Bin Hao became excited and his tone instantly changed to the form of a command. The corners of the latter's mouth lifted into a rare smile as he slowly spat out three words, "No, I know, I know."

Han Bin Hao was stunned upon hearing this. He slammed the table and stood up from his seat. The chair fell backwards and fell to the ground, letting out an intense scream. The teacups and trays on the desk bounced up and down with ferocious shrieks. His beautiful eyes were burning with anger, and he said angrily at Zhu Zhu Zhu Chi, "You are playing with me?"

"How would I dare?" Zhu Zhirong ignored Han Bin's murderous gaze as she shrugged her shoulders fearlessly. At this very moment, Zhu Zhirong actually started to act like a scoundrel, acting as if she wasn't going to tell him what kind of attitude he was taking.

Han Bin was so angry that he gritted his teeth. His fingers turned pale on the desk. Looking at the teacup on the table, he was clear that he could not move the person in front of him.

He kept saying to himself in his heart, "Calm down, calm down, calm down, calm down."

Since he couldn't hit him or curse him, he had to change his target. Clenching his fist tightly, he punched the table. The table was unable to withstand the power. With a "ka" sound, the table was split open from the middle. The moment the table collapsed, the teacup that was placed on the table suddenly floated up into the air. Because of the gravity, the other objects on the table fell to the ground in that instant, and the sound of the table breaking caused a series of crackling sounds.

The culprit who completed this magnificent feat, Han Bin Hao, had already flung his sleeves and left. As he watched the furious man leave, Zhu Qianyu, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the air, elegantly picked up an exquisite purple teacup and carefully savored the black mandarin red bamboo within. A subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, indicating that she was the victor.

After a long while, seeing that the others had gone far away, Zhu Zhu Zhu Fanglong finally opened his phone and made a call.

"Hello, hello. "This place is …"

"My table has been smashed by Master Truman. I'll pay for it." Zhu Zhu Qiuping interrupted the other party and continued, "Please inform Your Highness that this matter is going to be carried out as planned."

"Alright, please wait." The voice on the other end of the phone was lukewarm, without any emotion.

Zhu Zhu Zhu pouted. She still remembered the first time she made this call, when Phyllis thought it was a robot answering the call. In her fury, she had even said that she wanted to tear down the person who answered the call. But the emotionless reply on the other end of the line was something that should have been.

As the personal butler of His Highness, his Highness' itinerary was arranged by this person. Except for special circumstances or other tasks personally asked by His Highness, he would report everything else to this person.

To this, Zhu Zhu Fu to report to Sherman, when the call must be a voice chat. If she met this person, she would definitely run away as fast as she could. If something happened and she had to find this person, she would definitely end this matter as soon as possible.

"The reimbursement request has been forwarded to the bank. The table has been sent in accordance with the prototype. We are expecting to arrive at the director's office at 2: 05: 32 PM." The robotic reply from Sherman made Zhu Zhu Zhu's head hurt. He had long forgotten about the matter regarding Han Bin. Now, he only wanted to hang up as soon as possible.

"The matter did not follow the plan and will not be reported in detail. The Tauren are currently in the thirteenth region of the Central City. His Highness needs you to meet with him, the time is set to be 11: 30 sharp." Your Highness wants you to find out the reason why TL # 13 had Truman Cartagena ship out of the Holy City, and who leaked the information about the transport to the Middle City. Then, sort out the information and give it to me in detail. " Sherman gave the order without any emotion. Zhu Zhushui felt disgusted, but still replied to him as if he was responding to his highness, "Yes!"

She knew very well that she could not afford to offend Sherman, even if one day she became an royalty.

Sherman was the first to hang up when he heard the message. The voice screen next to Zhu Qianyu flashed, then turned into a 3D video call. He gave a command on the other end of the call and arranged a trip to Central City's Thirteenth District.

Inside the marquis' private apartment, Han Bin was sitting in front of his computer with a stern face. He was staring at the information of the employees of the Hua Rong Corporation that he stole using hacking techniques. However, he could not find what he was looking for.

There was no one called Osmond or Joyce. There was also no one called Jiang Tao, and no one called Leng Hanxuan.

He clearly remembered that before the coming of age ceremony, he had asked them about the name they wanted to be given. The one in Osmond was Jiang Tao, while the one in Joyce was Leng Hanxuan.

However, he couldn't find her anymore. He couldn't get any information out of her even if he tried to ask her. His intuition told him that this woman had definitely seen those two before!
