My Wild Wife in Shanghai

Inside the underground parking garage, in a dark corner.

This place is a blind spot for surveillance cameras and is extremely well hidden. If someone comes to the underground parking garage, they will be detected immediately and can easily make a clean getaway.

It is very safe.

Jin Taiyu asked Ma Qing with a somber expression, "Have you heard about today's meeting?"

"I don't know!" Ma Qing feigned ignorance.

"Not only did we fail to kill Chen Ye, but we were also outmaneuvered by him!" Jin Taiyu said angrily.

Ma Qing feigned surprise and asked, "How could this be? I thought..."

"Keep your voice down!"

Jin Taiyu rebuked Ma Qing.

"I thought that once you got rid of Chen Ye, I could finally become the deputy director of marketing!" Ma Qing muttered.

But inwardly she was gloating, and quite pleased with herself.

Because the evidence that exonerates Chen Ye was all collected by her personally, one by one, during her trip to Hangzhou these past few days.

Seeing Jin Taiyu's current appearance is enough to prove that he has succeeded.

"This failure is all your fault!" Jin Taiyu accused Ma Qing: "Do you know that someone went to the scene to verify, checked the surveillance footage, cleared Chen Ye's name, and even made him smug!"

Jin Taiyu became increasingly angry as he spoke, wishing he could kick Ma Qing.

"Huh? Check the security footage?" Ma Qing feigned confusion. "There weren't any security cameras in the private room where we ate! And there's no way there could be cameras in the hotel room. I checked all of that beforehand..."

"There are security cameras in the hallway, don't you check them?" Jin Taiyu asked coldly.

"This..." Ma Qing looked like he'd done something wrong. "I wasn't paying attention!"

"Shiba!"

Kim Tae-woo cursed.

Then he asked, "What happened? How was that hostage found?"

"What hostage?"

"That woman!" Jin Taiyu said, "Didn't you say you'd send her out of town to lay low?"

"What's wrong? That woman hasn't left?" Ma Qing asked.

"Oh dear, I can't explain it to you!"

Seeing Ma Qing's silly appearance, Jin Taiyu became increasingly angry.

He suppressed his anger, carefully looked around to make sure no one was coming, and then lowered his voice to say, "This plan has failed. Chen Ye will definitely go after the person who took the photos. You must be careful. If he finds them, we're all finished!"

"Who else is there besides you and me?" Ma Qing's eyes lit up.

Because the task Chen Ye assigned him was to act as a spy and find evidence of collusion between Jin Taiyu and Wang Weiye.

If Jin Taiyu were to reveal Wang Weiye's name at this moment, the matter would be settled.

"We're referring to the two of us! Who else could it be?" Kim Tae-woo said irritably.

"I understand!" Ma Qing nodded disappointedly. "I will definitely be extra careful."

"You failed this mission, so there's no way you'll get the remaining payment!"

Jin Taiyu said with a deep frown.

He appeared extremely frustrated, intending to put pressure on Ma Qing so that she would be too embarrassed to ask for the remaining payment.

But Ma Qing wouldn't listen to him.

"I've done everything you asked me to do! Why won't you pay me the balance?" Ma Qing said.

She deliberately tagged the end payment to avoid arousing Jin Taiyu's suspicion.

"You still have the nerve to ask for the final payment?" Jin Taiyu gritted his teeth and said, "I've already been more than generous by not asking for your 500,000 back!"

Ma Qing looked aggrieved: "If you don't pay me the balance, I won't be able to pay back my loan shark loans!"

"If you don't do the job properly, there won't be any final payment!" Jin Taiyu said. "Besides, you took 500,000 from me before, so you still need to do something for me, otherwise you'll have to return that 500,000!"

"You're being unreasonable!" Ma Qing said.

"Keep your voice down!" Seeing Ma Qing's agitation, Jin Taiyu used a combination of soft and hard tactics: "First of all, you didn't do your job well, so you don't deserve the money. You have to do something for me to make it up to me! Secondly, we're in the same boat. Don't even think about reporting me; you won't benefit yourself in the end!"

"Also, if I successfully complete the task I'm assigning you next, I can consider paying you a portion of the reward!"

"How much?" Ma Qing asked.

"You're trying to negotiate a price before you've even done anything?" Jin Taiyu gritted his teeth and said, "Get the job done first, and I'll reward you!"

"Vice President Jin, we have no personal relationship, it's all about interests!" Ma Qing said. "You should at least give me some compensation before you ask me to do anything, right?"

Jin Taiyu was taken aback, not expecting Ma Qing to be so tough.

"What, trying to negotiate with me?"

"Shouldn't that be?" Ma Qing said, "I only work for you for the money. If you don't pay me, why should I do it?"

Kim Tae-woo laughed in anger, gritted his teeth and nodded: "Yes! You're right! Okay, I'll pay you 500,000 after it's done."

"Pay me first, then I'll do the work!" Ma Qing said.

The reason she was so serious was to hide herself and make Jin Taiyu think that she was just a money-grubbing person.

"Aren't you going too far?" Jin Taiyu asked.

"Last time, you didn't even pay me the final payment, so of course I can't make the same mistake again!" Ma Qing said. "Besides, it depends on what it is. If you ask me to do something too outrageous, I wouldn't do it even if you gave me 500,000!"

"You..." Jin Taiyu sighed. Seeing that Ma Qing was not easily manipulated this time, he softened his tone: "Actually, it's not a big deal. Here's what we'll do: I'll pay you 25. You do the work for me, and after it's done, I'll definitely transfer the other 25 to you. If I don't, I'm a coward!"

Ma Qing sneered inwardly, "How childish you are! Who wants to be your grandma?"

"Alright!" she said, feigning reluctance. "Tell me what it is first, and I'll see how difficult it is. If it's not too difficult, I can consider it!"

"It's like this..." Jin Taiyu glanced around again, his eyes turning sinister as he whispered, "Our company has a product called the Inner Essence Pill, right? Go and get me the formula for it!"

"What?" Ma Qing exclaimed in surprise, "This is a company secret!"

"Yeah! If it weren't classified, would I need you to do this?" Jin Taiyu frowned.

"But you're the deputy director of R&D! You have a much easier time than me!" Ma Qing said. "Where am I supposed to get the formula for you?"

"With my current rank, I have no way of knowing the formula for the Inner Essence Pill!" Jin Taiyu said. "But you're different. You and Chen Ye work together all the time. The Inner Essence Pill was developed by Chen Ye. You can chat with him more and try to get the formula out of me!"

"This is going to be difficult!" Ma Qing said. "They're not stupid; why would they tell me the recipe?"

"If you want to earn that 500,000, there's always a way!" Jin Taiyu said with a sinister smile. "Besides, I have a drug that can make someone's consciousness go into a state of confusion. Whatever you ask them, they'll say it. I know you two are going on a business trip together next, and when you're alone together, that's the perfect opportunity to drug them!"
