Chapter 3746: Caught a Mole, It’s Really Not Me
Everyone in the Ninth Branch felt that something was amiss today. The atmosphere was extremely solemn. Even those not involved in the chip project could sense the signs of trouble.
Everyone was in a hurry and tried their best to reduce their presence. It was a stark contrast to the relaxed atmosphere in the Ninth Branch two days ago.
It was already two hours later when Ye Maoshan rushed over.
Wei Lou represented the Wei Family this time.
The one representing the Wen Family was Old Master Wen.
Among the three of them, Wei Lou was the youngest. He walked at the back humbly.
He was completely different from two years ago in Rao City. No longer with the eye-catching bird feathers on his head, his hair was shaved into an inch-long cut, and he was dressed in a neat leather jacket. He relied on his handsome and unyielding face with distinct edges and corners to support his appearance, looking strong and manly.
Old Master Wei had passed away two years ago and his father was not in Beijing. Today, he would represent the Wei Family.
Fortunately, Wei Lou took over the Wei Family’s matters for the past two years. He was not completely ignorant. Not only did he know how to be humble, but he was also considerate to open the door for the two elders.
“Grandpa Ye, Grandpa Wen, you guys go in first.”
“Mm.”
Ye Maoshan was straightforward and did not stand on ceremony with him. He nodded and walked in.
Old Master Wen walked behind and praised him with a smile, “You’ve grown up.”
Wei Lou was stunned for a moment. Then, he thought of something and smiled without saying anything. He waited for the two of them to enter before following them in.
…
The scene that greeted them when they entered was of someone with clenched fists facing Bo Jingxing with red eyes. “It wasn’t me.”
The man with his back to them was tall and burly. They couldn’t see his face, but they could feel his excitement.
“Young Master Bo, believe me. It really wasn’t me.” Jiang Tianzhi’s face dripped with sweat as he tried to explain himself. “I have no reason to do this. Why would I betray the Ninth Branch? I…”
Bo Jingxing, on the other hand, was cold. He only said calmly, “Then explain why a problem happened on your end? Give me a convincing reason and I’ll believe you.”
“I—” Jiang Tianzhi found it difficult to defend himself.
He stood in place, feeling as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. A chill ran down his spine and his mind went blank.
“I don’t know why there’s a problem…”
“Enough.”
Bo Jingxing gestured for him to stop. He did not want to listen to his “quibbles” anymore. He took off his glasses and rubbed his swollen temples, his peach blossom eyes filled with gloom.
“The Ninth Branch can’t tolerate traitors. I can’t tolerate such people either!”
At this moment, from the corner of his eye, he saw Ye Maoshan and the rest coming in. He quickly stood up and greeted him, “Elder Ye.”
Then, he saw the two people behind him and hurriedly called out, “Elder Wen.”
As for Wei Lou, he was the same age as him.
He only nodded politely. “Young Master Wei.”
Ye Maoshan was the first to wave his hand, indicating the person standing in his room. “Is he the mole you mentioned?”
“He’s the most suspicious person we’ve caught so far,” Bo Jingxing said.
Ye Maoshan walked over and stood in front of Jiang Tianzhi. His sharp gaze seemed to pierce through his soul. “Did you betray the Ninth Branch?”
His tone was neutral.
However, it induced uneasiness in a person.
Jiang Tianzhi’s expression changed slightly, but he insisted on looking at him. “I didn’t.”
Ye Maoshan raised his eyebrows as if he did not expect him to retort. He looked at him without saying anything else.
Jiang Tianzhi looked into his eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, feeling pain and excitement. “It really wasn’t me. I don’t know what happened either. Believe me!”
