Spring lovers: We who are inseperable

Chapter 164: The Woman in red (2)

"Where is the rest of the recording?" Li Wei asked with a raised eyebrow. 

"T-That, C.E.O. Li, was erased somehow." Mu Shufen said with a petrified voice. 

"How?" Li Wei asked as he kept, more like threw the tablet on the coffee table in front of him, then crossing his legs, he sat leisurely on the sofa. 

Though he may look like he was not at all affected by this, Mu Shufen knew that it was not like that.

From the inside, Li Wei was furious, if not for his nature, Mu Shufen would have long been under the ground, resting in the coffin. 

"They told me that they had no idea how it got deleted. I investigated it further, and no one other than the staff went inside the security room. Moreover, only the time that you were inside the elevator until you entered the room, part of the recording missing. So, I speculate that someone has intentionally deleted it," Mu Shufen said putting forward his hypothesis. 

Li Wei nodded, and then said, "Ask for the recording of the elevators before that and give it to me."

Mu Shufen nodded and left the room. 

Li Wei sighed, it was definitely the work of the woman, he was with. No woman in this society would let this opportunity go, it was the perfect situation in which someone can easily claim that she slept with him, and can release it in the media that would have ample of advantages. 

Closing his eyes, Li Wei again attempted to get back the memories of the last night, and fortunately, he was able to recall the scene where he called the woman Yu Yan. 

Realizing this, Li Wei opened his eyes, "Why did I call her, Yu Yan? There is no way she can be Yu Yan! But what if she is?" 

Li Wei was currently in mental turmoil, this was all confusing. He could not make out why he called that woman Yu Yan, moreover, he cannot even remember the woman. Now, his only hope was the recording. 

After ten minutes, Mu Shufen came into the room and passed Li Wei the tablet. With a somewhat nervous feeling, Li Wei asked Mu Shufen to play the recordings of all the floors one by one. 

.

It has been half an hour, but there was still no progress. Li Wei was running out of patience, and by now he was sure he would have to take the matters in his hands, when Mu Shufen said, "Sir, we have the last recording, that is of the entrance of the restroom floor, should I play it?" 

Li Wei nodded, he had no big hopes that he would get anything from this. 

As the recording played, countless women came in and out of the elevator and the lady's room. 

"Skip to the time before I was drugged," Li Wei asked. 

Mu Shufen nodded, and within a minute the recording started. In the recording, Li Wei could see a woman in red, with a red mask, that without any doubt Eliana. 

Li Wei raised an eyebrow, he was not sure whether she was the one, but seeing her, she resembled the woman he was with. 

She was seen going inside the lady's room and then coming out of it, on her way to the Elevator. 

Suddenly, Li Wei realized something and he said, "Play the recording of the elevator that was at the entrance of the banquet hall floor. Make it the same time when Miss Eliana entered the elevator."

And, as expected, something unusual was spotted. Eliana did not get out of the elevator, and instead, Li Wei was seen entering the same elevator as her. 

"Check whether she had gone to any other floors or not," Li Wei asked, to which Mu Shufen nodded. 

After ten minutes, Mu Shufen said, "Sir, Miss Eliana is not seen getting out of the elevator on any other floors. She got into the elevator but never came out of it, and she did not go to any other floor, that is the same time when you got into the elevator. And the recording after that was erased." 

Li Wei was now sure, that it was Eliana, the woman in the red dress. There is no way it could not be her. 

"You said you saw a woman getting out of the room when you came on this floor?" Li Wei asked to Mu Shufen. 

Mu Shufen nodded.

Li Wei smirked, it would have been Eliana. She would have helped him shower and then asked Ethan to come to take her place, and after changing she had left the room. 

Li Wei could now understand it all.

One question, Why would she do so?

The answer to this question was given earlier to Li Wei than he had expected, as all the memories of last night came flooding into his mind. 

How he got into the elevator, what happened between them, and the aftermath, and the fact that he called her Yu Yan. 

From what he could remember, she did not deny this fact, when he called her Yu Yan and her face. 

Her face.when Li Wei tried to remember to Eliana's face, of which he had gotten a glimpse last night, Yu Yan's face came into his mind. No matter how many times, he would always see Yu Yan. 

Was Eliana Yu Yan? Or was this just the effect of the drug? 

Li Wei could not make out. But he was sure that it was Eliana, he was with Eliana last night, and she helped him. But then why the recording was deleted? This can only be possible when she wants to hide her identity from him. Because...she was Yu Yan?

No matter what...he needs to find Eliana. That woman..could be his Yu Yan. 

"Set a meeting with Ethan Song, and give me all the details about Eliana. Dig out all her history, everything. I don't know how you will do this, but I need it," Li Wei said with a cold demeanor. 

Mu Shufen nodded. 

"What is my schedule for today?" Li Wei asked. 

As Mu Shufen could answer, he was interrupted by the ringing of Li Wei's phone. 

Li Wei picked up his phone, it was Madam Li. 

Picking up the phone, he said, "Hello mother."

"Where are you, Wei?" Madam Li's voice came from the other side. But there was something different, instead of the usual gentleness in his voice, in her voice, there was strict and cold emotion, that Li Wei rarely saw. 

"I am in the banquet hotel, what is it?" Li Wei asked as he realized this feeling in her voice. 

"Come home, right now," Madam Li said as she disconnected the call. 

Li Wei raised his eyebrow, and said to Mu Shufen, "Let's go to the Li Mansion, first."

Mu Shufen nodded after that they both left the room. 

....

Feng Corporation,

Feng Jing was seated inside his office in a navy blue suit. Sipping his black coffee, he pressed the small on his table to call for his assistant.

Few minutes passed, but there were no signs of his personal assistant, Fei Hong.

Feng Jing was slightly shocked because this is the first time it happened. Fei Hong was always on time since she started this job. Rain or shine, she would be there by his side.

He pressed the bell again.

After a few more minutes, the door finally opened.

Feng Jing waited for his assistant's sweet voice to enter his ears but no...

All he heard a flat ugly voice. He looked up only to his chief secretary, standing in front of him with a straight serious face.

"Good Morning, CEO Feng," Yuan Shao greeted.

"Where is Fei Hong?" Feng Jing asked coldly.

"Ms. Fei has not come yet, CEO," Yuan Shao informed.

"Oh." Feng Jing nodded nonchalantly.

After excusing his Yuan Shao started with his schedule for the day. Yet his attention was elsewhere. He was feeling.....restless.

His personal assistant, Fei Hong, was appointed a few years ago to handle all the company related matters. Since he started with the company work, he only had Yuan Shao by his side, whom his father had appointed to him. Yuan Shao was in charge of all his matters, either personal or business. But after some time, his responsibilities increased, both private and business-related. And thus, he had to hire a new assistant for his company matters.

By this, he found Fei Hong. She was just nineteen when she joined. Now, she was twenty-three. He could say that she grew up in front of his own eyes.

In the beginning, she was quite naive and clumsy. He had to teach her many things. Since then, she had become his little student. She became a little version of himself.

As he was busy in his wonderland, he heard a knock on his door.

"Come in," he said indifferently.

"Sir," a sweet mellow voice entered his ears. He unknowingly smiled.
