Training the Heavens

Chapter 11 I can’t say
Lu Jie opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

Because Xie Meilan's abilities are indeed average, her master's degree is fine in other industries, but it just barely meets the threshold for the financial industry.

This industry values ​​two types of people: those with extensive connections who can bring business to the company and secure projects, or those with strong professional skills who can solve problems that others cannot. However, Xie Meilan has neither of these qualities.

In addition, all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women are needed. Everyone knows the reason, but Xie Meilan does not meet this requirement. She has an ordinary appearance and cannot compete with those young girls who are beautiful and capable.

So how could such a person get into Lu Zong's company? After understanding the situation, Lin Qianjun found Lu Zong's recruitment resume form and saw a large blank space for applicants to fill in their family relationships, which immediately made him suspicious.

Because Xie Meilan would definitely write in her resume that her husband Shen Lei works in a central government agency and is in a confidential position responsible for managing archives. The family members of such people are very popular among spies.

"Actually, our industry is not as high-end as outsiders think. Anyone can do the job as long as their ability is above the passing line!" Lu Jie continued to find excuses.

He couldn't say that he hired her just because he thought Xie Meilan wasn't smart enough and was easy to fool, right?
Lin Qianjun continued to ask a few more questions, finally getting to the crux of the matter. "A subordinate with average ability and ordinary appearance, who's having family problems, and you're actually willing to lend her 500,000 yuan! Is there some explanation behind this?"

"I developed a liking for her at that time, and I lent her money to leave a good impression on her! Women will become panicked when they encounter some changes that they cannot control. This is a good time to attract them!" Lu Jie was telling the truth this time.

"Giving five hundred thousand just to make a good impression? Mr. Lu, you didn't seem to be so generous when dealing with girls before?" Lin Qianjun flipped through the information in his hand. They didn't call Lu Jie for tea without any preparation. The necessary background check had been done.

Lu Jie blurted out, "She wrote me an IOU, and there's also a bank transfer record. Even if I can't get her in the future, I can get the money back!"

This answer did not surprise Lin Qianjun. He had come into contact with many wealthy people. These people would not give out anything until they saw the rabbit. How could they give away hundreds of thousands of dollars on a whim?
This is something that only single guys who can't find a wife would do. Because no girl is interested in them, they can only empty their family savings to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for the bride price. Mr. Lu is not that kind of person.

After questioning for a while, Lin Qianjun temporarily ended the interrogation and went out to discuss with other colleagues who were watching the conversation on the monitor. They all felt that Lu Jie was hiding something.

However, when comparing the conversation records between Lu Jie and Xie Meilan, there was no trace of Lu Jie explicitly or implicitly asking Xie Meilan to collect information from Shen Lei.

Lin Qianjun analyzed, "Either he was planning to play the long game and catch a bigger fish, but he didn't expect Xie Meilan to be so tempted that she pounced on him with just a flick of his finger, leaving him no time to make a move!"

"Either the things he's hiding have nothing to do with us, and his purpose in looking for Xie Meilan isn't Shen Lei, but Xie Meilan herself."

"Judging from the current situation, this may be the case!" Other colleagues also nodded in agreement.

"Then let them go back first, continue to pay a certain level of attention, and wait until new situations are discovered!" The leader made the decision.

Soon, Lin Qianjun returned with a confidentiality agreement. "Mr. Lu, this interrogation is over. Once you sign this agreement, you can go back! Don't tell anyone about what happened today. Otherwise, you know the consequences!"

"I understand!" Lu Jie breathed a sigh of relief, quickly took the agreement, glanced at it briefly, and signed his name.

"Oh, by the way, when we send you back later, remember to find your passport. We will keep it for you temporarily!" Lin Qianjun added. This is also a routine practice. Lu Jie's suspicion has not been completely cleared yet, and he must not be allowed to run away.

It's okay to wander around the country, but it's definitely not okay to go abroad! This is the result of his relatively minor suspicion. If it were a more serious one, he would have to report to them before leaving Kyoto and get their approval before he could go. "No, I still have to go abroad to meet clients and discuss business." Lu Jie's heart, which had just been relieved, was in suspense again. This matter is not over yet!
"Try your best to overcome it! We'll return it to you after a while!"

Coming out of the conversation room, Lu Jie saw that Xie Meilan's eyes were red and swollen, obviously she had been crying. How could someone like her withstand such pressure? Fortunately, Lu Jie had not started his plan yet, so he didn't have to worry about Xie Meilan leaking anything.

They got back into another ordinary car and were taken to Lu Jie's home. They returned to the house and quickly found their passports and handed them to Lin Qianjun. Only then did Lin Qianjun return their phones to them.

Before leaving, he reminded me, "I've left you my phone number. If you have any questions in the future, please call me."

"Of course, of course!" Lu Jie no longer had the arrogance he had when facing Shen Lei.

After sending Lin Qianjun into the elevator and watching the elevator door close, they returned home. As soon as Xie Meilan closed the door, she couldn't wait to ask, "Lu Jie, what on earth is going on?"

Lu Jie sat down on the sofa, panting heavily. Only then did he realize that his back was soaked.

"Lu Jie, please say something!"

"How should I know? They're all asking you!" Lu Jie became increasingly irritated by her urging, "Why don't you have any sense at all? Pour me some water! Forget it, have a drink!"

When Xie Meilan saw this, she immediately became intimidated and quickly went to the wine cabinet to pour Lu Jie a glass of his favorite whiskey, and even added ice cubes.

Shen Lei was usually very kind to her at home and didn't let her do any housework, but she always disliked Shen Lei.

Now in Lu Jie's house, Xie Meilan was being ordered around, but she was willing to do it. This guy is just mean sometimes!

After drinking a glass of wine and going to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes, Lu Jie finally calmed down.

When Lu Jie returned to the living room and saw the cell phone on the coffee table, his heart skipped a beat. Oh no! I was taken away in front of so many people. I don’t know what rumors will spread in the company.

He quickly turned on his phone and saw that it was full of missed calls.

He quickly called his boss, "Hello, Mr. Song."

"I heard that you were taken away for questioning? What did they ask you?" asked the boss.

"They... uh, I can't say!" Lu Jie remembered the confidentiality agreement.

　Ask everyone which copies they want to see
