The Assistant followed Wu Mei’s instructions and paid attention to Wu Pang’s movements recently.
He had also snuck into Wu Pang’s office to look for some documents, but he had not found any conclusive evidence or suspicious clues.
The Assistant reported the situation to Wu Mei, “Wu Pang is very cautious this time. No one has access to any important project information.”
“Including me, the front desk secretary, and the managers of the various departments, none of us have seen the relevant content.”
“Wu Pang’s computer has a very complicated password. I can’t unlock it…��
Wu Mei narrowed her eyes. She turned on her computer and instructed her assistant to sneak into Wu Pang’s office and insert the pre-prepared chip into the USB port interface of his computer. The Assistant waited for five seconds. After activating Wu Pang’s computer, he left the scene in a hurry. Wu Mei then used the remote-control equipment to hack into Wu Pang’s computer and searched for evidence. However, the desktop and hard drive contained useless information.
Looks like there’s an expert guiding Wu Pang.
Recalling Mo Li’s foreign face, Wu Mei guessed that Wu Pang had transferred all the important information to a USB flash drive or printed it into hardcopy before erasing it completely.
She pondered silently and decided to head to the Wu Corporation at night to investigate.
In the evening, Wu Mei was about to change into a set of clothes that made it easier for her to conceal herself and head to the Corporation when she heard a knock on the door. She hurriedly stuffed her clothes under the bed and opened the door to see Mother Wu standing outside. Mother Wu walked in with a glass of milk in her hand and said, “Mei’er, Mom can’t sleep. I want to talk to you, is that okay?”
Wu Mei was surprised, but she could not refuse. She could only accompany Mother Wu to drink tea and chat in the living room.
Mother Wu seemed to have sensed something. She held Wu Mei’s hand and asked with a pained expression, “Mei’er, you must have suffered a lot in the past. Mom was the one who didn’t protect and take care of you. Don’t blame anyone else, much less do anything wrong.”
“The Wu Corporation is a memory that your maternal grandfather left for me. Even if it goes bankrupt and goes downhill till it’s just a small company, I still hope that it can exist.”
Mother Wu seemed to be hinting at something. Wu Mei frowned and asked in confusion, “Mom, what’s wrong?”
“Did someone say something to you?”
Wu Mei sensed that something was amiss. Mother Wu’s eyes flickered but she avoided answering.
Half an hour ago, Wu Pang had called her. His words were filled with explanations for what had happened during the day. He said with extreme certainty, “Wu Mei must hate me. She wants to take revenge on me and target the Wu Corporation…”
“She can do whatever she wants to me, but the Corporation is yours and your dad’s blood, sweat and tears. I also want to protect it for you.”
“We definitely can’t let Wu Mei do something that can’t be undone. You have to think of a way to stop her…”
Mother Wu came to her senses after a while. She looked up and probed, “Are you going out tonight?”
Wu Mei denied it while breathing deeply. Pointing at the completely dark sky outside the window, she smiled and comforted Mother Wu, “Mom, it’s so late. Where can I go? Aren’t I here chatting with you?”
Li Nanchen could tell that Wu Mei was anxious and took the initiative to walk to them.
He held Wu Mei’s wrist and said apologetically to Mother Wu, “Auntie, I want to be alone with Wu Mei for a while. You won’t mind if I take her away, will you? After all, it’s night time, I still want some alone time with Wu Mei,” Li Nanchen hinted. Mother Wu did not stop or urge them to stay. She watched as the two of them returned to the bedroom on the second floor.
