Chapter 49: Caught in the Act

“Manager Sun, you look beautiful today,” I said with a faint smile.

Indeed, Sun Dan’s outfit today was quite unique; I’d never seen her dressed like this before. This made me quite impressed with her.

“Don’t change the subject. How are things going with Secretary Zhao lately?” Sun Dan smiled, then changed the subject.

“Nothing much, pretty good. Anyway, she has special permission from Director Wang to leave work early.” I shrugged.

“Is that so?” Sun Dan gave me a meaningful look.

“As long as she doesn’t disturb my work.” I smiled.

“I heard she’s trying to take a cut of your sales performance. You’d better watch out.” Sun Dan continued.

Hearing this, I cursed inwardly that Sun Dan and Zhao Xiaoman were both bad people; they were both trying to drive a wedge between me and the other, both trying to use me.

“It’s alright, I can manage. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to get busy.” I said calmly.

“Okay, go ahead and get busy.” Sun Dan felt she’d made a fool of herself by coming here. She pouted and left my office.

With Sun Dan gone, I became interested in Zhao Xiaoman’s plans for tonight. I was sure Zhao Xiaoman would follow Sun Dan tonight, and maybe even get some unexpected results.

It was almost time to leave work. I saw Sun Dan was still in the office, while I, of course, left on time and drove home.

But as soon as I got home, Zhao Xiaoman called me.

“Manager Lin, where are you?” Zhao Xiaoman’s voice came from the other end of the line.

“Just got home? What’s up?” I asked quickly.

“Manager Sun really did meet with Director Wang. She went straight towards Wanping South Road after get off work, and I’m following her now.” Zhao Xiaoman said hastily.

“Wanping South Road? What’s that?” I frowned.

“Director Wang bought a villa on Wanping South Road. I suspect Manager Sun is going to meet him tonight,” Zhao Xiaoman continued.

“This—” I was speechless.

“Manager Lin, take a taxi right now and meet me,” Zhao Xiaoman said.

“What the hell? What does this have to do with me?” I asked.

“Don’t you still want to be the regional director? This isn’t just helping me, it’s helping you too!” Zhao Xiaoman said hastily.

“Okay, send me the address.” I nodded slightly, agreeing.

My goodness, Zhao Xiaoman really knows how to stir things up. Something big is probably going to happen tonight; maybe our sales department will be transformed tomorrow.

Just a few minutes later, Zhao Xiaoman sent me an address, and I was even more excited. I went out and hailed a taxi.

About twenty minutes later, I arrived at Wanping South Road. The most famous area there is for river-view villas, and even a single one is incredibly expensive.

As soon as I got out of the taxi, I saw Zhao Xiaoman’s red Mini. She had obviously seen me too; she waved and gestured for me to get in.

“What’s going on?” I asked, getting into the passenger seat and looking at Zhao Xiaoman.

“Manager Sun has already entered the villa area, but I haven’t seen Director Wang yet,” Zhao Xiaoman said hastily.

“Are you really sure Manager Sun is meeting Director Wang privately tonight?” I looked at Zhao Xiaoman suspiciously.

“Absolutely. I know Director Wang very well. He doesn’t have any social engagements tonight, but I just heard that Director Wang didn’t go home,” Zhao Xiaoman explained.

“Heard? Did you have someone watching Director Wang?” I narrowed my eyes, scrutinizing Zhao Xiaoman. “You don’t need to worry about that,” Zhao Xiaoman said, glancing around before continuing, “This spot is too conspicuous; let’s go to the shade of the trees up ahead.”

Soon, Zhao Xiaoman started the car and found a parking space under the shade of the trees ahead. Because of the other cars blocking the view, they wouldn’t be noticed, and it was getting darker.

Would Mr. Wang really come tonight?

I wondered to myself, but what happened next surprised me.

A black Mercedes-Benz suddenly appeared in my sight. It was clearly Mr. Wang’s car, and it had driven into the villa complex.

“Hmph, so they’re on a date.” Zhao Xiaoman sneered.

“What do we do now?” I narrowed my eyes, looking at Zhao Xiaoman.

“That’s easy, let’s go in too.” Zhao Xiaoman unbuckled her seatbelt, about to get out.

“Damn, are you kidding me? Going now? Weren’t you going to notify Mr. Wang’s wife?” I quickly said.

I felt a little guilty being with Zhao Xiaoman. Come to think of it, I hadn’t been so apprehensive at the Bay Hotel that day.

“I need to confirm if Director Wang and Manager Sun are at the villa,” Zhao Xiaoman said impatiently as she got out of the car. After some deliberation, I followed her.

Under the cover of night, we entered the villa area one after the other. Zhao Xiaoman seemed to know the area well. When she stopped, I immediately spotted Director Wang and Sun Dan’s car in front of a villa.

“It’s almost seven o’clock now, you can make the call,” Zhao Xiaoman said, turning to look at me.

“Why are you looking at me?” I asked hastily.

“Manager Lin, you have to make this call. Director Wang’s wife doesn’t know you anyway,” Zhao Xiaoman said immediately.

“Damn it, you’re trying to frame me! If they find out I reported you, Director Wang will definitely not let me off the hook!” I said quickly.

“I don’t care about that. Do you still want to be the director?” Zhao Xiaoman shrugged. Hearing this, I started to struggle internally.

“Time waits for no one; their happiness won’t last long,” Zhao Xiaoman urged me.

“Okay,” I nodded slightly.

“Here, this is that old woman’s phone number.” Zhao Xiaoman opened her phone’s contacts.

I glanced at it, then walked to the side and started making the call, but my heart was pounding.

The call connected quickly, and I took a deep breath.

“Hello, who is this?” a woman’s voice came from the other end.

“Is this Mrs. Wang? Mr. Wang is having a tryst with a woman at his villa on Wanping South Road. You need to come quickly, or it will be too late,” I said hastily.

“Who are you?” Mrs. Wang asked hurriedly.

I immediately hung up the phone, beads of sweat already forming on my forehead.

Damn it, betraying someone really makes you feel guilty.

“Finished?” Zhao Xiaoman looked at me quickly.

“Yes,” I nodded slightly. “That old woman must be furious. She’s on her way. Let’s wait for her in the little garden over there,” Zhao Xiaoman said hurriedly.

I nodded slightly and glanced at the two floors of the villa. I saw two figures in the bedroom, one of whom had drawn the curtains.

Damn, caught in the act! 

This is probably much more serious than the case of the wife of CEO Wang from Longzhimeng catching Zhao Xiaoman cheating.

Zhao Xiaoman’s expression was cold. She muttered, “Hmph, Sun Dan, let’s see how you compete with me now!”
