“I really didn’t expect you two to meet,” said Li Jiaxue on the other end of the phone. “Actually, Lin Yunan asked me to find someone for him. I can’t tell you the one is, someone you are strange with. Yesterday, Lin Yunan asked me to meet him at the hotel. What I didn’t expect was that he had known I was following your wife, so he deduced that you had entrusted me to spy on your wife. He wanted to buy all the information I’ve found, and of course, I refused. However, he threatened me with the police as I refused to cooperate with him. Our company was in the dark area of law, so I had to accept it. I told him only two things. The first is, it was possible that Ding Jie’s cheating partner was him. The second is the transaction between Ding Jie and Liao Junchao. Anyway, I only told him about the two things in exchange for the safety of my office. I can promise.”
“Are you sure?”
“Sure, be at ease.”
“Why tell him about our move today?”
“Only the deal between Ding Jie and Liao Junchao,” said Li Jiaxue. “Actually, before I told him, I had already made a deep thought. I said it after weighing pros and cons. To be honest, Impulsiveness is the devil, so you’ll be tempted to do something out of ration under impulsiveness. Then, you might have hurt Liao Junchao that he would be called the police. He wasn’t just the general manager of the Xiamen branch of Jia Mei Underwear. He was also the husband of Lin Guodong’s younger sister. If this dual status exerted pressure on you, you would be the only suffer. As we’ve already eliminated the possibility of Lin Yunan being the adulterer, and he really dislikes Liao Junchao, if I tell him about the cooperation between Ding Jie and Liao Junchao, he’ll probably go to make trouble and stand by your side. So in view of maximizing benefits, it’s the best choice to tell him.”
“I don’t understand who you back to.”
“Of course I’m on your side,” Li Jiaxue said, “I have two cooperation content with him right now. Find someone for him and tell him all the information I’ve got on your wife. I have been pushing forward on the first one; I am, of course, only superficially cooperating with him in the second one. The reason I’m giving him information today is that I want to make him feel that I’m really co-working with him. If I didn’t tell him anything, it would have made him suspicious and call for the police to shut down my company. Anyway, you should feel relieved with my professional ethics.”
Although Li Jiaxue promised to him, Li Ze still couldn’t be at ease.
Gut he didn’t dare to interrupt the cooperation with her.
At least, she was professional.
After a moment of silence, Li Ze said, “It’s okay to release something, but don’t tell secret information.”
“I understand,” said Li Jiaxue, “I’m sorry to make you angry because of my arbitrariness.” I’ll discuss with you in advance providing him with any information. It doesn’t work that I remain silent. He’s smart actually, so he wouldn’t believe I didn’t find out anything. I can only pretend to cooperate with him as he has a strong supporter.”
“Alright.”
“Did Liao Junchao find anything?”
“I went to seek for the video on April 15th. However, he told me that there wasn’t.”
“It’s supposed to have.”
“Right, so I guess he was lying,” Li Ze said. “On the morning of April 15, he threatened my wife on WeChat to take off her underwear after work and hand it. He would have opened the surveillance software beforehand, peeking and recording the entire process of her taking her underpants. My wife insisted that she had shaved and bathed in the department’s bathroom after work, so if I could find the video, it will be clear whether she was lying. But Liao Junchao said that he was having the video chat with a customer and forgot to turn it on. ”
“Maybe it’s for the conflict of videos?”
“What?”
“Video chat would load the files about the camera which would open as you turn on the monitoring software. There might be conflicts if he opened the monitoring software while having a video chat with the client. The result is that the camera can’t open. One of the cameras was in his office and the other was in the bathroom of Human Resources. Supposed the two loaded with the same file, it will inevitably lead to conflict, which caused the second camera not to open.”
“I don’t understand.”
“It’s like skating in a rink, assuming there’s only one pair of skates left. As you get them first, I can’t skate then. I can skate only if I get the skates without you skating.”
“But today he said he forgot to turn on the surveillance software. He didn’t mention that there’s no way to turn on the camera because of the conflict.”
“So you’re not sure if he’s telling the truth?”
“Right,”
“Then let’s go to his office again this evening.”
“For what?”
“To recover the files in the encrypted folder,” said Li. “Supposed there really was the video of April 15, it should be loaded in the encrypted folder. Therefore, with the recovery software, I can restore the deleted files. In fact, when I was building the recovery catalog, I will be already certain whether there was the video, so it won’t take long. ”
“What time do you have the time?”
“Why don’t we go over now?” Li Jiaxue said, “They didn’t go to work on Saturday, so there’s no difference to the earlier. But you must treat me the dinner later. ”
“Okay,” Li Ze said, “I’m driving over to pick you up right now. Are you still in the Dicos?”
“Nearby. I’ll wait for you there.”
“Well, see you later.”
After hanging up, Li Ze gave Liu Mi a call and told her to wait at the company’s side.
Because Li Ze had already promised to have dinner with Li Jiaxue, he even called his wife.
“Hubby?”
Hearing his wife’s hoarse voice, Li Ze asked, “Have you cried?”
“Right.”
“Why did you cry?”
“I feel so stupid,” Ding Jiu said from the other end of the phone, “Lin Yunan called me in the afternoon and said that he was the one that ascertains my promotion. So I could still get the position without the cooperation with Liao Junchao. Then you won’t be angry today. I know that you didn’t go to teach Yuou painting today, you are dodging me, right? I agreed to the cooperation for paying off the mortgage earlier, but I was really stupid. I’m afraid you would divorce me.”
