Chapter 170: Will you lie to yourself?
Li Corporation,
"You won't find it," looking at the message, Li Wei sighed. As expected of the young man, Ethan was too confident but looks like he was too engrossed in chatting, that he forgot to counter-attack and when he noticed what was happening, he had no choice but to delete the data.
This plan was rushed and risky as well. Disadvantageous as one must say. Li Wei was not surprised to see such stubbornness especially from someone like Ethan.
It was not only disadvantageous for Ethan, but for Li Wei as well. He could not get any information as that IP address was rebooted. Li Wei clicked his tongue at this.
Sitting on his leather chair leisurely, he was silently twirling the triangular paperweight around.
Although he had an emotionless face, vengeance and depression were clearly evident in his dark eyes.
After a few minutes, there was a slight knock on the door of his office.
The door opened and Mu Shufen walked in.
"C.E.O. Li," Mu Shufen greeted.
"Mhm," Li Wei glanced up to him slightly.
"C.E.O. Li, we found something. Mr. Feng Jing had visited the Song Mansion today," he said.
Li Wei's attention was drifted to Mu Shufen who had told a piece of suspicious news.
"Song Mansion? For how much he stayed there?" Li Wei asked after a long pause.
"He departed after lunchtime," Mu Shufen said.
Li Wei nodded and gave a 'hmm'.
"Are there any business partnership between the GlobalMed and Feng Corporation these days or in the past?" Li Wei asked with a suspicious voice.
"No, C.E.O. Li. GlobalMed has not initiated any kind of business partnership with Feng Corporation," Mu Shufen answered.
"Any past interactions," Li Wei questioned again.
"No, Sir. Not any we could find. Our sources have not been able to decipher any such thing between both of them" Mu Shufen said.
"Mhm," Li Wei nodded.
He then rotated his leather chair towards the side of the french window, gazing outside with heavy melancholic eyes.
Mu Shufen sighed in his heart with deep sorrow.
'It's been a year. When Miss Wang entered C.E.O.'s life, he would smile, laugh, even behave like a child and show emotions that were true. But when Miss Wang left, he became a machine, without any heart, just working. Everything changed. It seemed that all the colors of his life faded, with Miss Wang.'
Mu Shufen thought analyzing the current situation.
"Any more information about Eliana?" Li Wei asked slowly, pulling away Mu Shufen from his thoughts.
Mu Shufen coughed.
"Yes. Her full name is Eliana Song, and she seems to be related to the Song family, but we haven't found out her true relationship with them, for now, we are expecting that she is the eldest daughter of the Song family," Mu Shufen said.
Li Wei raised his eyebrow at this. This was a new thing that was discovered.
"Anything else?" Li Wei said.
"Ahem, Not yet C.E.O. Li, but we are working on it. We are hoping to get results soon," Mu Shufen said hesitantly.
"Mhm, you can leave now," Li Wei ordered.
Mu Shufen bowed and left quietly, the room was left with only silence.
"I bet she is Wang Yu Yan, the moment I get it confirmed, she won't be able to escape, I promise," Li Wei mumbled with utter determination and eagerness in his eyes.
"You will not be able to escape from me" Li Wei mumbled again, with slight wickedness.
......
"Did you find the location of that hacker?" Ethan asked as he raised his head which was placed in his hands on the table, in front of the computer, from which he had deleted every single thing.
Eliana who was pouring coffee from the coffee maker stopped her hands in the air.
Seeing her spacing out, Ethan shouted, "Hey, why are you spacing out?"
Listening to the shout, Eliana resumed her actions and then turning around with two mugs of coffee in her hands, she said, "No, before I could, it was disconnected."
Ethan looked at her suspiciously, as he accepted the coffee mug that he was presented.
Sighing he said, "Tch..such a pity. Nevermind, I will look into it," as he took a sip of his coffee.
Eliana did not say anything as she sipped her coffee.
Suddenly her phone ringed, looking at the number she showed it to Ethan. Ethan who was sipping his coffee, choked and then coughing vigorously he wiped the spilled coffee.
"Suddenly? Why is she calling?" Ethan said with a surprised expression.
Eliana shrugged, and then with a smirk commented, "Let's see, why is she missing me now."
Ethan rolled his eyes at Eliana who went out of the room, to attend the call.
After making sure that she was not here anymore, Ethan grabbed the laptop on which she was working.
He opened it and then started typing.
After half an hour Eliana came back with her expression looking somewhat exhausted.
As she entered, she was a little difference in the atmosphere in the room. It had become colder than before, the source of that being on and only Ethan who was silently typing in a laptop.
Looking at her, Ethan smiled and then said, "You are here! Come!" as he gestured her to sit in front of him.
Eliana raised an eyebrow, something was indeed suspicious, but keeping that ominous feeling aside, she followed what Ethan said and sat in front of him.
"What is it? Why do you look so excited?" Eliana asked.
"I found the location of that person who hacked my computer," Ethan said cheerfully.
Listening to this, Eliana was dumbfounded.
Seeing her expression, Ethan looked at her with suspicion, "What happened? Why do you look like a thief who was caught?" as he laughed heartily.
Eliana smirked and then rolling her eyes.
After a long pause, she said, "You are really bad at acting, you know right?"
Ethan was dumbfounded for a moment, and then with a smug laugh he said, "I can say the same for you."
Eliana nodded, "Of course, like brother like sister."
"So, should we get to the point, shall we?" Ethan said, with a grave expression.
"We should," Eliana nodded.
"Why did you lied that you have not found the address of the hacker?" Ethan started as he started to bombard Eliana with questions.
Eliana did not say anything and kept looking at him, which made Ethan irritated.
"Why are you so quiet? You should have told me that it was WhiteDevil aka Li Wei," Ethan said with an irritated voice.
"What would you have done if I had told you?" Eliana asked as she sat with her legs crossed.
"I-, yes you are right I could not have done anything, but then, at least you should have told me," Ethan said.
"You know it now. What else?" Eliana asked.
"I am asking why you did not intend to tell me that it was Li Wei?" Ethan said.
"What about you?" Eliana asked with a cold voice.
"Huh?" Ethan was dumbfounded at this.
"What about me?" Ethan asked with a confused expression.
"Why didn't you tell me that you haven't given Li Wei that memory loss drug?" Eliana said with a loud and clear voice.
Ethan was shocked.
'H-How did she find out?' Ethan thought and as if Eliana had known what Ethan was thinking, she said, "You are wondering how did I found out?"
With a smug she started, "Dear brother, how can you give two drugs from a single injection?"
"Single-injection? How-" Ethan was going to say something when in his mind popped something.
Eliana said, "When I came out of the bathroom changing, I noticed that there was only a single injection kept on the side table, same goes for the bottle of the drug. I got suspicious and so I asked a person to go to the same room and check the dustbin. Surprisingly, it turned out that there were only a single injection and drug bottle in the room."
Listening to this, Ethan felt embarrassed, embarrassed because he could not even do a single task.
"Fine, ok. I did not give him the drug, so what?" Ethan asked as he shuttered.
"Why? Why didn't you give him the drug? Even though you know how important was it?" Eliana said with a raised voice.
Ethan slammed his hand on the table and then shouted, "I did not give him the drug because I wanted that person to remember what happened that night. I did it for you! How is this wrong?" Listening to this Eliana smugged.
"Ha! For me? You also know what was my reason right?" Eliana shouted.
"Yes, I know. But I couldn't ignore what I saw with my own eyes. That day when you went to the party, weren't you jealous of that Yang Sying? Huh?" Ethan said.
"I was not," Eliana answered.
"Ha! You know what, you are really bad at acting. It was clear, clear that you did not like Yang Sying standing with Li Wei. How much are you gonna lie? You can lie in front of me, but what about yourself? Are you gonna lie to yourself too?"
