“Have you heard this name before?” Nian Xiaomu looked up in surprise when she heard what the secretary had said.
The secretary nodded her head immediately and said, “Yes, this is a very special name, people are unlikely to forget it once they have heard it. I remembered it, did your friend disappear in the recent aviation accident ?”
“…”
The excitement in Nian Xiaomu’s heart dimmed instantly.
She had originally thought that no one would happen to know Tan Bengbeng, or instead tell her that Tan Bengbeng did not appear on the flight that had met with the aviation accident.
And so, she had merely seen the victim list…
Nian Xiaomu snapped back to her senses and nodded her head lightly. “Yeah, she was on the way back from her overseas conference. However, she was in the accident and we have lost contact with her.”
“Tan Bengbeng…” As the secretary took another look at the name on the slip of paper, she narrowed her eyes slightly and seemed to be recalling something, she lifted her head and looked at Nian Xiaomu.
“My best friend seemed to have mentioned this name to me before. At that time, the flight was delayed by a little and everyone was waiting. However, she was the only pa.s.senger who appeared to be ill at ease and had asked the staff member several times if they could board the plane soon. She was constantly looking around at her surroundings and seemed to be searching for someone…”
All of a sudden, Nian Xiaomu stood up and reached out to grab onto the secretary’s arm.
“What did you say? Are you sure that was Tan Bengbeng?”
The secretary was taken aback by her action and stared blankly for a few seconds.
“I am not too sure, just that my best friend happened to mention this aviation accident when I was at her house two days ago. We were casually talking about it and I remembered her name because it was really special.”
“Can I meet your best friend?” Nian Xiaomu’s hand tightened on the secretary’s arm.
Tan Bengbeng was very important to her.
Nian Xiaomu had chosen her as her only family member after she had lost her memory.
Apart from being worried about Tan Bengbeng’s safety, she also wanted to find her so that she could clarify the surveillance footage with her.
“This… Let me ask her.” The secretary hesitated. When Nian Xiaomu released her grip on her, she took out her phone and headed to the corner to make a call.
Very soon, she hung up and walked back to Nian Xiaomu.
“My best friend is okay with meeting you, but you would have to wait until she knocks off from work.”
The secretary only left after she had sorted out a meeting time.
When she walked to the door, she even turned around to remind Nian Xiaomu, “Manager Nian, we need to send those doc.u.ments to the president’s office.”
After she had finished speaking, the secretary pulled the door open and walked out, leaving behind a zoned-out Nian Xiaomu sitting at the office desk.
When she heard what the secretary said, she lowered her head and looked at the doc.u.ments before her.
Her relations.h.i.+p with Yu Yuehan had never been made public to the company and this had resulted in someone’s dissatisfaction.
After numerous failed attempts in protesting, Yu Yuehan started to think of ways to get her to his office.
Delivering doc.u.ments would be the best unsuspecting excuse he had.
As time went by, Nian Xiaomu only delivered the more important proposals personally to the president’s office so as not to raise the suspicions of her colleagues in the department, and it was done in the glorified name of—delivering the doc.u.ments personally so that she could present the reports to him.
And now, karma hit her.
Based on her past habits, the secretary had pa.s.sed her all the important doc.u.ments so that she could deliver them to Yu Yuehan personally after she had finished vetting them.
As Nian Xiaomu rubbed her nose, she sat down in silence and started to do her work.
After she finished reading the doc.u.ments, she sat on the chair and started to seriously ponder over how she should deliver those doc.u.ments to Yu Yuehan.
In the end, she gritted her teeth before she picked up the entire bunch of doc.u.ments on the table and walked out of the door.
She was merely delivering a few doc.u.ments.
What’s there to be afraid of? Yu Yuehan doesn’t bite!
