Tick-tock, tick-tock... The clock on the table quietly walked through the journey of time, emitting only the sound that represented the passage of time.
Song Ge stared longingly at the clock, feeling a bit flustered in her heart.
It wasn't time to get off work yet, but if she didn't hurry there, she might miss the person.
Song Ge closed her eyes and made up her mind. She quietly hugged her bag and tiptoed out of the office. Her big, bright eyes glanced around from time to time.
In the president's office, Zhai Cheng was concentrating on the documents in his hand. All his attention was focused on the trivial matters in front of him, and he didn't notice for a moment that there were a pair of constantly blinking eyes outside the window.
He seems so busy. He shouldn't notice my absence from work, right? What if he calls?
Song Ge wrinkled her delicate little face. She fished out her phone from her bag and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Song Ge smiled smugly as she pressed the power - off button of her phone.
Oh, her phone was out of battery and turned off! It wasn't her fault that the call couldn't get through.
Song Ge couldn't help but admire her own ingenuity. Her eyes became much more determined. She hunched her slender waist and rushed towards the back door of the company with her bag in hand.
An hour passed. Outside the office, the lively chatter of the employees suddenly grew louder.
Zhai Cheng slightly lifted his black eyes. Employees passed by the Venetian blinds in twos and threes and walked out one after another.
It was time to get off work.
Zhai Cheng put down the pen in his hand. He stretched his slightly aching muscles and bones and strode out with his long, straight legs.
Song Ge's workstation was nearby. Zhai Cheng deliberately passed by but found the seat empty.
Zhai Cheng immediately frowned tightly, with a hint of doubt in his black eyes.
At this time, she should still be at her seat according to her usual speed.
But where was she?
Zhai Cheng reached his slender fingers into his pocket. He took out his phone, opened the contacts, and dialed Song Ge's number.
"The number you dialed is turned off. Sorry..."
He couldn't get through to Song Ge's phone.
Listening to the cold mechanical voice on the phone, Zhai Cheng's black eyes turned a bit cold. A fog of doubt shrouded his heart.
On the other side, Song Ge sneezed several times in a row. She shrank her neck, hugged her arms, and hid in the dark corner of the alley. Her eyes never left the entrance of the club not far away.
The night was hazy, dyeing the whole sky. The city under the night sky gradually lit up a sea of lights. The club was even more brightly lit and gaudy, standing prominently among the high - rise buildings.
Seeing more people coming to the club entrance, Song Ge tightened her heart. She pulled down the black hat on her head. Her beautiful eyes were extremely bright in the night.
"Drink, keep drinking!" From time to time, drunkards came out of the club and passed by Song Ge.
Drunken men were the most dangerous at night.
Song Ge stepped further into the alley. She lowered her head. Her simple black sportswear blended perfectly with the night.
Another person entered the club.
Song Ge stared wide - eyed, but soon disappointment filled her eyes. She shook her head and stomped her feet that were getting a bit tired.
"Ugh... I want to go home..." A drunkard reeking of alcohol staggered by. He slipped and fell into the alley where Song Ge was.
Song Ge immediately jumped away. She frowned and covered her nose, hiding deeper into the dark alley.
"Strange. There... there's a woman here, hic!" The drunkard slowly got up holding the wall and walked forward.
Song Ge let out a sigh of relief and carefully poked out her little head. Not far away, a showy red car sped over and stopped at the club entrance.
A man got out of the car. He waved at the car, and it drove directly into the parking lot near the club.
It was Xu Yan!
Song Ge's eyes lit up. She lowered the brim of her hat even more carefully. Her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
She had found out that Xu Yan had an entertainment event at the club tonight. Unexpectedly, she really waited for him!
"Welcome, Young Master Xu. You're a distinguished guest. Please come in quickly!" The two waiters at the door accompanied by smiles and quickly welcomed Xu Yan in.
Song Ge watched as Xu Yan and his driver walked into the club one after another. Then she quickly slipped into the parking lot.
"6688..." Song Ge murmured these numbers. Her eyes quickly scanned all kinds of cars, and then her sight was locked on the car on the right.
This was the one!
Song Ge's palms were slightly sweaty. She looked around carefully. When she was sure there was no one around, she quickly took out the universal lock - pick from her pocket.
It was the first time she had done something like this. A thin layer of sweat appeared on Song Ge's forehead. After some fiddling, the car door opened with a click.
It's open! Song Ge was overjoyed. The expression of delight on her face was obvious. She carefully took out the gloves she had prepared in advance. After putting them on, she groped her way into the car. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
Just having a bug wasn't enough. If there were photos, the evidence would be conclusive!
Song Ge slightly squinted her beautiful eyes. After thinking for a while, she put her slender hand on the place to open the trunk.
In the rear - view mirror, the trunk slowly opened. Song Ge got out of the car and locked the door as it was.
She walked to the trunk, curled up her slender body, and got in directly. Song Ge got into the trunk very nimbly. She pulled the door, and darkness immediately enveloped her whole body.
The overly quiet parking lot and the pitch - black situation made Song Ge's heart pound non - stop.
The time hiding in the trunk was a bit tough. Song Ge didn't dare to relax at all. She silently counted numbers in her heart.
As it gradually got to midnight, there was a sound in the parking lot. The footsteps were getting closer, and there were two people.
Then, these two footsteps walked straight towards Song Ge.
It seemed that the person she was waiting for had come!
Song Ge gritted her teeth. She curled her body into a smaller ball and didn't dare to move at all, for fear of making any sound. Song Ge quietly waited for what the two people would do next.
Xu Yan and the driver walked to the red car. Xu Yan stood lazily on one side, waiting for the driver to unlock the car.
"Click." The car was unlocked, but the two people who were used to the sound of unlocking frowned.
This unlocking sound was different from what they usually heard!
"Master Xu." The driver whispered in a hoarse voice.
At this time, Xu Yan was completely sober. He took a few steps back and squinted at the dark car window.
This car window was specially made. One couldn't see inside from the outside, but could see outside from the inside.
The wrong unlocking sound meant that someone had unlocked the car. So -
Was that person in the car, sitting there and watching their every move?
What was his purpose?
