What’s going on? Is someone coming?
Upon hearing that voice, her face changed instantly; she spun around and ran to the doorway of the finished goods warehouse. Peering in the direction of the workshop’s main entrance, she indeed saw a sliver of light emerging. Her heart leaped within her, and she hurried back inside the warehouse to turn the two incandescent bulbs off.
She absolutely couldn’t let anyone discover her here, or else once the incident came to light tomorrow, she would definitely be exposed!
At this thought, cold sweat dripped down from her forehead.
In the pitch darkness, the jade ornaments still emitted a luminescent green color, that even seemed stronger than when the lights were on.
However, she no longer had the luxury of time to notice this. If that person were to come in and see her here, she’d be in trouble. Thoughts raced through her mind, and after a few seconds, evidently having heard footsteps approaching from outside, she bit down on her teeth and pushed all the products she hadn’t had time to pick through into the defective area.
In the defective area, the warehouse inspectors would naturally re-examine them the next day. By then, if there were any issues, she could figure out a solution tomorrow morning.
After dealing with the products, she returned the selected jade pieces to their previous channel and quickly climbed onto the conveyor.
This conveyor was connected to the adjacent polishing workshop, the very machine she used to bring the jade pieces in during the day, making it the perfect escape route at this moment.
Two minutes later, outside the polishing workshop, a slender figure dashed out and promptly vanished into the night...
Meanwhile, in the finished goods warehouse, when Ou Mucen lifted the roller shutter door to enter, what he encountered was an empty warehouse with its lights extinguished.
Confronted with this sight, the man stepping into the warehouse stood within a beam of cold white light, his gaze resting on the jade pieces that had been hastily tidied up, his handsome brows furrowing, and an icy chill around him that made it difficult for anyone to breathe.
"Third... Third Young Master, what brings you here so late... Is there something you need?"
The person following behind him was the security guard from the entrance. Seeing the famous Third Young Master of the Ou Family with a steely complexion, he felt so frightened that he could barely stand straight.
The Third Young Master had never visited since taking control of the company, so why the sudden appearance now?
Especially to a place . Was there something the Third Young Master needed?
The security guard didn’t dare to even let out a breath!
After what felt like an eternity, but was no more than three minutes, the man who stood in the light looking icy down to every line of his figure finally spoke, his voice cold as ice, "Move all those over here, inside!"
The security guard didn’t understand.
The products on the platform? Inside this channel?
But this was work for the company’s warehouse staff, and he was just a security guard who knew nothing. What if he messed up their tasks?
Yet, his moment of hesitation provoked the man cloaked in a grim air, who started yelling, "Don’t you understand? Don’t feel like working, is that it? If you don’t want this job, get out of here right now."
"No, no, no, I’ll do it right away, right away!"
The security guard didn’t dare to ask further questions. He came over and quickly dumped all the jade pieces from the platform back into the channel, stirred them forcefully as instructed, mixing both materials until he was told to stop.
What was the Third Young Master doing? Everything had been just fine, why did he ask him to put the jade pieces back?
