Time was running out. Jin Hui could come back at any moment. Linda had to find the blueprint they had just mentioned as soon as possible and then figure out a way to make a copy and take it out.
Linda thought that this time she must make Mu Junze owe her one, so that he would know how nice she was.
She made up her mind secretly. However, she was faced with a problem right from the start: where on earth was the blueprint?
She rummaged through Jin Hui's desk non - stop.
Since Jin Hui had to deal with a great number of documents on a daily basis, there were piles and piles of them on the desk, which made it quite a hassle for Linda to search.
She rummaged through cabinets and drawers, looking for that useful blueprint in these mountains of documents.
Where was it? Where on earth was it?
The more she searched, the more anxious she became, because she couldn't find the blueprint either on the desk or in the drawers.
Suddenly, Linda thought of a place.
Jin Hui usually liked to hide things in a special safe, and she had accidentally seen the password of this safe once. Because of that incident, she had almost made Jin Hui unhappy.
Thankfully, later she had managed to placate him by using her charm.
So, she opened the secret compartments on the wall and tried to find the safe. To her surprise, there were about five or six secret compartments on this wall, and there was no way of knowing which one Jin Hui had hidden the things in.
Linda plucked up her courage and started trying one by one.
She opened the first secret compartment. Inside was a whole box full of cash, all in US dollars.
Although Linda was very tempted by the money, at this moment, it was as useless as waste paper to her.
So she closed the first safe and opened the second one.
This safe was filled with piles and piles of diamonds, the value of which was incalculable!
Linda reached in and grabbed a handful. Each diamond was as big as a pebble, crystal - clear and well - cut.
She couldn't help but wonder what Jin Hui had been doing all these years to amass such wealth.
She thought for a while. To avoid arousing Jin Hui's suspicion, she put the diamonds back and smoothed them out to erase any traces of her having touched them.
She closed this safe and was about to open the third one.
The things in the third safe were even more puzzling.
When she opened it, there were some jars and bottles with labels on them. Inside were some black solids, some white powders, and some plant branches and leaves.
Linda had absolutely no idea what was inside. The words on the labels were strange, looking like they were made up of little bugs. They were neither Chinese nor English.
Although she didn't know what was inside, she felt a little uneasy.
It's a pity the blueprint isn't in here either... Linda thought to herself.
Saying so, she closed the third safe and opened the fourth one.
As soon as she opened the fourth safe, a strange fragrance wafted out.
After just one whiff, Linda felt her whole body go numb. She felt dizzy and even as if she were floating in the air.
Inside were bottles of liquid. Obviously, this strange fragrance was emanating from these liquids, and most likely, they were addictive.
Linda was a bit sad. She had already checked four safes and still hadn't found the whereabouts of the blueprint. There were only two left. If she still couldn't find it, she might really have no chance.
She closed the safe. Just as she was about to open the fifth one, she suddenly heard the sound of farewell downstairs.
She peeked out of the window secretly. Lao Sun had already left, and Jin Hui was on his way upstairs.
This made Linda even more anxious. Looking at the remaining two safes, she thought to herself: There's no time to open them one by one to check the contents. Now I can only take a gamble and choose one at random.
"Alas, the mountains don't move but the water does. Mu Junze, if you really love me, help me out. Let you owe me this favor. You choose one for me!"
Linda closed her eyes and kept muttering. Then she reached out and opened the door of a safe.
...
After Jin Hui turned the corner on the stairs, he suddenly noticed that the door of his office was ajar. He remembered very clearly that he had closed the office door when he left. So who had opened it?
Jin Hui felt a sense of unease in his heart. He rushed forward in three quick steps, pushed the office door open, and saw Linda sitting on the desk in a red dress, with a charming figure and a sexy look.
Her eyebrows were knitted tightly, but the moment she saw Jin Hui, her face blossomed like a peach flower in full bloom, and she broke into a smile.
Such a seductive face was irresistible to any man.
"Brother Hui, you're back~"
"What are you doing here? Is this a place you should come to?" Jin Hui was a bit angry and shouted at Linda.
Startled by Jin Hui's shout, Linda suddenly became scared. She quickly got off the table and said with a trembling voice and a mournful face, "I just missed you so much... You've been so busy recently that you don't even have time to accompany me. I've taken a fancy to a few new bags recently. I really want them..."
Jin Hui was speechless. He knew that Linda was with him only because she was coveting his wealth and connections. It was just as well, for he didn't have to worry about her betraying him.
"Here!" Jin Hui said and threw a card over.
"Buy whatever you want. Remember, this room is not a place you should come to. If you have anything to say in the future, we can talk about it slowly in the bedroom~"
As Jin Hui said this, he suddenly let out a contemptuous laugh, looking a bit lecherous.
Seeing Jin Hui throw a card over, Linda quickly stepped forward to pick it up. Then she wrapped her arms around Jin Hui's neck and said, "Brother Hui is really the best to me. When will there be a chance for me to repay you properly?"
As Linda said this, she blew a breath into Jin Hui's ear.
Jin Hui was, after all, a man. How could he resist Linda's charm? For a moment, he couldn't contain his desires. He began to grope at Linda's clothes and kissed her forcefully, then pushed her down onto the desk.
Startled by this sudden move, Linda quickly pushed Jin Hui a few times and said, "No, Brother Hui. I'm not feeling well these days..."
Hearing this, Jin Hui gradually slowed down his movements.
He frowned, pushed Linda away, and murmured, "Such bad luck... Get out of here!"
Linda blushed, nodded at Jin Hui, and then left the office.
Even so, Jin Hui still didn't completely trust Linda.
He dialed the phone and called one of his subordinates over, giving him an order.
"Find someone to follow her."
