The people from the Trade and Commerce Bureau had been investigating the company the past two days, and it had caused a stir in the company. He was extremely nervous and would break out in cold sweat when the people from the Trade and Commerce Bureau asked him questions.

He knew that he had done it very discreetly and had used a special hard drive to copy the documents. There were no traces of his hard drive being used on the computer, and he had handed it to Wen Yun personally. That man was definitely more cautious than he thought. He should not have been worried, but having a guilty conscience and something illegal made him even more worried. He had been asking Wen Yun out for a drink every night for the past two days.

Wen Yun comforted him as well, telling him to remain calm. He said that Lu Manman was just putting on a show and that this matter would be left unsettled in the end. He told him not to worry and that they should meet as little as possible in the future to avoid arousing suspicion.

"Xuanran," Lu Manman said.

Lu Xuanran was shocked and turned to look at her.

Lu Manman looked at his tense expression and smiled. "Work hard. Everyone in the family hopes that you can do well."

Lu Xuanran furrowed his brows. Lu Manman's sudden kindness made him think that she was up to something.

Lu Manman looked at him meaningfully and was ready to leave.

"Where are you going now?" Lu Xuanran suddenly asked.

"I'm going to the Trade and Commerce Bureau. I heard there's been some progress, so I wanted to take a look."

"What progress?" Lu Xuanran asked nervously.

"I don't know either. It wasn't clear on the phone. I'll only know when I'm there."

"I'll go with you," Lu Xuanran said anxiously.

Lu Manman narrowed her eyes and appeared calm. "No need. Don't disrupt your work."

With that, she strode off.

Lu Xuanran gritted his teeth as he looked at her.

He hurried back to his office and called Wen Yun anxiously.

The call went through. "Xuanran, didn't I say not to call me so often?"

"Wen Yun, Lu Manman said that there's been some news from the Trade and Commerce Bureau."

"She's lying to you. I have people watching over it. There's no real progress."

"Really?"

"Don't call me. We'll talk after the limelight is over."

"Alright."

Lu Xuanran hung up.

Lu Manman and Zhang Cui had gone to the Trade and Commerce Bureau, but of course, they had not made any progress as she had said. She had only gone to look for the director of the Trade and Commerce Bureau to make an appearance and then had a discussion with him so as to attract attention.

The Wen family's status in Wen City's government was practically unshakeable, and it was practically impossible to investigate the Wen family through these matters. She had actually thought of this as well, and of course would not go head-to-head with them. She would have a way of knocking them on the side, making them panic, and eventually making them at a loss.

She went to the Trade and Commerce Bureau and returned to the office in the afternoon.

She believed that many rumors had already spread and that Lu Xuanran's every move was being monitored. Now that Wen Yun had received such valuable information, he must be starting to speculate as to how much she knew.

She could not be 100% sure now, but at least 80%.

Lu Xuanran was working with Wen Yun.

A smart person like Wen Yun would surely think of finding someone from the Lu family's main household to do something together. The people from the Lu family's main household had always wanted to rely on the Wen family to hold their heads high. Both parties would surely hit it off!

Her eyes narrowed.

This was good.
