In her eyes, Yao Tang wasn’t even good enough for a loser like Zhang Shou. Despite his shortcomings, he was still the president of the Zhang Group.

Once she was done torturing Yao Tang, she could just pass her on toZhang Shouto become his plaything.

The girl turned to his bodyguard and commended him. “Not bad. Today’s work was completed quickly and without a hitch. It’s so much better than before.”

The man smiled and nodded his head, but there was something that had been bothering him for a while now.

He had done this kind of thing multiple times in the past. Each time, the operation was very tricky, and they had to go through a lot of connections to clear their obstacles.

But this time, everything had gone smoothly. Too smooth, in fact.

He had initially thought it would take them one or two days to carry out the extraction, but they had somehow managed to do it in one night.

“Oh right,” the girl said, interrupting the bodyguard’s line of thought. “Tell Captain Wang not to make a move in the meantime. Have him wait for further instructions to come.”

The bodyguard decided there and then not to think to entertain his suspicions any longer. The deed was done, anyway. Instead, he gave Captain Wang a call and relayed the boss’ directions.

…

At that moment, in another part of the city, Elder Guanwas rushing to the location his subordinate had mentioned. They told him they had seenYao Tangthere.

When he reached the place, he looked around frantically, but she was nowhere in sight. “Where is she?” he asked his subordinate, who had sidled up next to him.

The other man bowed his head and apologized.

......

“I am deeply sorry. We mistook someone again. When my men went over to confirm her identity, we realized that she was only wearing the same brand of clothes as Miss Yao Tang.”

That girl just happened to be taking a walk nearby.

She didn’t even stay that long in the area.

When they had first ascertained that she wasn’t Yao Tang, they had immediately calledElder Guanto notify him of their blunder. None of them expected the old man to come over in such a hurry that he didn’t even answer his phone.

By the time they made a second call, Elder Guanhad already arrived.

Currently, Elder Guanwas fuming while he listened to his subordinate’s report. His hands found their way to his waist as he huffed and puffed. “You people just don’t know how to get on with the times, do you?” he thundered.

“You took one look at the girl and immediately concluded that she wasn’t Yao Tang? What makes you sure that it wasn’t her in disguise?”

The subordinate trembled where he stood, not daring to make a sound.

He waited for Elder Guan to finish his tirade before speaking again. “Well, Sir, we have confirmed that the girl is a local of City A and a member of the Lin family. Although they are now in decline, they did enjoy a bit of prominence in the past, so there’s a good amount of public information about their family.

“Additionally, the girl was with a middle-aged woman who seems to be her mother.”

It was this last detail that convinced them that the girl was not Yao Tang.Yao Tanghad no relatives to speak of.

Besides, the girl’s facial features were consistent with that of the elders in the Lin family. There couldn’t be any doubt that she was related to them.

“We tried to call to inform you that we would be starting an investigation on her, but you weren’t answering.

“We called again when we finally obtained the date we needed, but we still failed to get through to you.”

The subordinate’s tone was solemn, his face filled with guilt and shame.

Unfortunately, it did nothing to appease Elder Guan’s anger. “You worthless lot!”

He shook his fist at his subordinate before turning around to leave. His dismissive attitude surprised the other man.

“All the information we have on the girl from the Lin family is here,” the subordinate said, handing the old man a folder. “Would you like to take a look at it?”

But Elder Guanonly pushed the file away.

Despite his disappointment, he knew his men’s capabilities better than anyone else. If they said that they had verified, without a doubt, that the girl was not Yao Tang, then it must be so.

That meant that this girl was officially off the list of possible prospects.

She could not be Yao Tang.

Elder Guan shook his head in resignation and sighed. “That won’t be necessary. You don’t have to follow her anymore, either. Just focus your efforts elsewhere and find that Yao girl as soon as possible!”
