Chapter 1261 - 1261: Meeting Dong Min

"I've heard about Dong Min before; she's Dong Ziqiang's second daughter from the Dong Family, and she's cut off several of her father's top generals shortly after returning from abroad," Pei Renyong remarked, glancing at Pei Dengke as he gave a hint.

Pei Dengke, however, smiled bitterly, "Dad, I've heard all that too, but there have been so many phone calls that I can't recall it at the moment."

Just then, Wang Tingwei gracefully descended from upstairs.

Pei Dengke's eyes lit up as he asked, "Weiwei, could you help think back to whether one of the people who called me was named Dong Min?"

This was a casual question with an 'on the off chance' mindset, and unexpectedly, Wang Tingwei pulled out a palm-sized notebook from her pocket and replied, "Let me check."

After flipping a few pages, Wang Tingwei smiled and said, "There is someone named Dong Min."

Saying that, she handed the notebook over.

Pei Dengke took it and immediately passed it to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng glanced at the contents of the notebook and couldn't help feeling a bit surprised.

In the notebook, every caller's name, call time, call duration, and even the spoken content were meticulously recorded.

Of course, many insubstantial pleasantries were summarized in regards to the content of the conversation. If everything was recorded word for word, it would probably be exhausting.

Xiao Feng directly focused on Dong Min's name, and the recorded call duration was thirty seconds, with only one sentence…

"Please inform Mr. Xiao that if he deigns to visit me, I assure him it will be worth his while."

At this moment, Pei Renyong's eyes flashed with an odd expression and he glanced at Wang Tingwei, saying, "Miss Wang is truly meticulous."

"Dengke was busy answering calls, and I was bored nearby, so I just recorded casually, not expecting it to be useful," Wang Tingwei responded with a smile, her manner neither servile nor overbearing.

To be honest, she really didn't care what Pei Renyong thought of her and even hoped he would insistently intervene in her affairs with Pei Dengke and forcibly separate them.

In this case…

She could go all out in pursuing that man!

Pei Renyong was indeed surprised at Wang Tingwei's reaction, but this was clearly not the time to focus on that.

He pondered briefly before asking Xiao Feng, "Mr. Xiao, there are many people who want to invite you to dinner now, as you must know.

I'm curious why you're particularly interested in this Dong Min?"

"Dad, Bajia must have his considerations," Pei Dengke quickly interjected.

The implication was clear: don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked.

Xiao Feng chuckled, "It's no big deal, just that I've dealt with Miss Dong before, so we're old friends."

This was no casual lie but rather a concrete reality.

The business alliance Dong Min had supported was still oppressing and ostracizing companies like the Chang Family, Wang Lubo, Du Family, and others supporting Xiao Feng.

In this regard, the two indeed have had dealings, though not face-to-face.

In fact, after settling Ma Yuliang, Xiao Feng no longer needed to concern himself with Dong Min.

Yet, he was still curious about the character advising from behind He Qizheng.

…

Half an hour later, Xiao Feng appeared under the Dong Group's office building.

As he approached the building, he noticed the security guard at the entrance comparing a photo with himself, then tilting his head and speaking into the shoulder-mounted walkie-talkie.

Soon after, a well-dressed woman emerged from the building.

The woman jogged up to Xiao Feng with a graceful smile, saying, "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Dong has been waiting for you for quite some time, please follow me!"

Xiao Feng followed leisurely, using a slightly surprised tone, "It seems your Mr. Dong is confident that I would come to see her?"

"That isn't something I can know, but our Mr. Dong truly values you!

Two hours ago, she called a full staff meeting, and everyone received a photo of you.

She instructed us that whoever sees you must report to her immediately."

Xiao Feng pretended to realize, "I wondered why my average face could get recognized like a celebrity at a glance."

"Mr. Xiao mainly has great presence; there are many good-looking people, but not everyone has your aura," the woman praised beside him, not blinking, giving a very sincere impression.

Xiao Feng laughed heartily, "I like how you tell tall tales so openly!"

"Uh…" The woman was a bit taken aback but stuck to her guns, "I never lie."

While speaking, the two arrived at the elevator entrance.

The woman pressed the floor button, the elevator door opened immediately, and she gestured for Xiao Feng to enter, "Mr. Xiao, please!"

Meanwhile;

In the office, Dong Min wearing headphones heard some static, and the conversation's sound became intermittent.

She removed the headphones, put them away in the drawer, her eyes filled with contemplation…

Why does it feel like he knows I'm listening to him?

The choice to eavesdrop wasn't to pry on secrets.

From the lower floors to her office, that short distance and short time wouldn't reveal any useful information.

She just wanted to assess the other person's general character from their speaking style before meeting Xiao Bajia.

From the simple dialogue she heard, Dong Min could only preliminarily judge that Xiao Bajia was someone who liked straightforward dealings.

Before long, three knocks sounded, interrupting her thoughts.

"Knock knock knock!"

Dong Min took a deep breath, quickly adjusting her mindset and expression, "Please come in!"

The woman led Xiao Feng into the office, saying, "Mr. Dong, Mr. Xiao is here."

Dong Min stood up and said, "You can leave now."

"Yes!" The woman responded, walking towards the door.

But after just two steps, she heard Xiao Feng say, "Wait!"

"Mr. Xiao, do you have any requests?"

"Your hair tie looks nice, could you give it to me?"

"This!" An instant of panic flashed in the woman's eyes.

Dong Min's expression also subtly changed.

Both understood that the decoration on the hair tie contained a listening device.

Xiao Feng wasn't interested in anything else but showed interest in the hair tie; it was quite intriguing…

The woman quickly responded, apologetically smiling, "Sorry, Mr. Xiao, this hair tie is a gift from my boyfriend."

"If it's a gift, then forget it; consider I never said anything," Xiao Feng responded nonchalantly with a smile.

The woman apologized again; as she exited, her steps were slightly off rhythm.

"Click!"

The door closed, and Xiao Feng turned back to appraise the woman behind the desk.

Her attire was very simple, just a white shirt, with sleeves rolled up showing fair wrists; neck, ears, and hair bore no adornments.

The first impression was capable and simple!

However, someone who used eavesdropping devices couldn't be as simple as they appeared, could they?
