I started by signing in to a billionaire sister

Chapter 224 Even I Have to Pay a Price
"So direct?" Chen Wei smiled bitterly.

"What? You're disgusted with me?" Liu Mei pretended to be angry, crossed her arms, and said with some dissatisfaction, "I have seven or eight suitors outside, and they line up to give me all sorts of gifts every day."

Noticing Chen Wei's strange look, Liu Mei quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, I neither accepted any gifts nor agreed to anything they asked for."

"You rejected them all when they were so proactive, so why are you being so proactive with me?"

"Because you're good-looking, and not just simply handsome, but on a higher level." Liu Mei raised her hand and gestured.

"Thank you." Chen Wei couldn't think of anything else to say.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere instantly turned icy, quite awkward.

"Pfft." The joke ended with Liu Mei breaking down, "Okay, I'm not kidding anymore. My request is actually very simple, nothing more than a promotion and a raise."

“That’s definitely not a problem, but I’m curious, since you have evidence, why didn’t you submit it before?” Chen Wei asked.

“I’ve said before that there’s more than one mole in the company; another is a senior manager. My evidence isn’t enough to convict anyone directly, so why risk being fired to expose so-called justice?”

“But if it’s submitted by you, as President Su’s younger brother, the result will be different.” Liu Mei raised her eyes.

"That makes sense." Chen Wei nodded in agreement.

“Okay, the promotion and raise are absolutely no problem. If President Su doesn’t agree, I’ll bring you to my company as a manager,” Chen Wei assured Liu Mei.

"I like doing business with straightforward people like Mr. Chen."

Subsequently, Liu Mei and Chen Wei added each other as friends and Liu Mei sent him all the evidence.

"How is it? Is it enough?" Liu Mei asked to confirm.

“That’s enough,” Chen Wei affirmed.

Liu Mei closed the lunchbox, tidied it up, and bent down as she passed Chen Wei.

Chen Wei deftly dodged the attack, asking, "What do you want to do?"

"I just wanted to say something to you. Bye-bye, I'll be waiting for your good news." Liu Mei waved and walked away.

"My sister was right. Boys need to be careful when they're out and about. If you're not careful, someone might take advantage of you," Chen Wei joked to himself.

After finishing their meal, they left the cafeteria and headed to Su Qingyue's office.

"Come in." Seeing Chen Wei's smug expression, Su Qingyue smiled and said, "It seems you've found the key evidence."

"We found it, but you'll have to pay a price, sister." Chen Wei said this without any thought that it would cause Su Qingyue to misunderstand.

"Price? What price?" Su Qingyue was taken aback.

Why are you getting nervous?

Chen Wei didn't think too much about it and explained, "This evidence was given to me by another employee. I promised her that as a reward, I would give her a promotion and a raise."

"Oh, no problem. As long as we can find the traitor, we can get a big reward." Su Qingyue was a little disappointed, thinking that this guy had finally figured things out.

"Sis, I've sent you all the evidence." Chen Wei said, operating his phone.

"What! It was actually those two?" Upon learning the true identities of the traitor, Su Qingyue was immediately incredulous.

"Traitors are excellent employees, which is actually quite normal, because they are excellent enough to have access to more confidential information and sell it for a higher price."

“You’re right.” Su Qingyue picked up the phone and immediately called the police. “Hello, is this the police station…”

Chen Wei did not linger in Su Qingyue's office. He had already alerted her, and he was worried that Zhao Qing might run away or do something extreme.

The police station was right next door; they arrived even faster than Chen Wei.

When Chen Wei arrived, the situation was already in complete chaos. "Don't come any closer! None of you come any closer!" Zhao Qing grabbed Liu Mei by the neck with her arm, while holding a pen in her other hand, the nib pressed against Liu Mei's carotid artery.

Even a woman who is completely powerless can easily take someone's life.

"Zhao Qing, we've been colleagues for a while now, what are you doing?" Liu Mei's forehead was covered in cold sweat, fearing that she would die here today.

"Don't think I don't know. You're the one who snitched. You weren't just passing by the coffee shop that day. You took pictures, didn't you?" Zhao Qing's personality changed drastically, becoming somewhat crazy. She leaned close to Liu Mei's ear and said in an icy tone.

"I...I didn't," Liu Mei naturally dared not admit it.

"Stop talking nonsense and cooperate obediently. If you utter another word, I'll drag you down with me! Today, if I live, you live; if I die, you die too!" Zhao Qing tightened the grip on Liu Mei's neck.

"Okay, I understand. Please, please have mercy," Liu Mei said, choking back tears.

Her gaze fell upon Chen Wei, her plea for help was quite clear.

The sheriff tried to persuade Zhao Qing, but before he could speak, she demanded, "I don't want to lay down my weapons, and I don't believe in turning back from the dead. Tell your people to get lost, and also, prepare a car for me."

"you……"

"What do you mean 'you'? Hurry up! If you don't do it, I'll kill her, you believe me?" Zhao Qing increased the pressure, and with a little more force, the pen tip would pierce Liu Mei's neck.

Liu Mei's expression clearly showed everyone how much pain she was in.

Just as the junior team member was at a loss for what to do, Chen Wei suddenly appeared behind him, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "Can I give it a try?"

"You?" The junior team member confirmed Chen Wei's identity. "Are you a negotiation expert?"

"No." Chen Wei shook his head.

"You're not from the security team, nor are you a negotiation expert, so can you please stop causing me trouble?"

There weren't many people in the police station now; they were all out on missions. He was just a half-baked officer, and he already felt things were chaotic. Now that Chen Wei had stepped forward, he was even more confused.

“I can solve this problem, and you don’t have any better options, do you?” Chen Wei retorted.

"..." The team member fell silent.

He certainly couldn't do what Zhao Qing said and actually prepare a car for her.

If the leaders find out, at best you'll be punished, at worst you'll be kicked out of the security team, leaving a permanent stain on your career.

After careful consideration, the squad leader decided to give Chen Wei a try.

This guy is quite handsome, which is a huge weapon for women. Maybe he can really make the criminal lower his guard, and then he can take the opportunity to rescue the hostage.

"Okay, remember, whatever you do, don't provoke the criminal. She's very agitated right now, and excessive stimulation could pose a threat to the hostage's safety, understand?" the team member reminded repeatedly.

"Understood. I'm a professional when it comes to assisting in crimes." Chen Wei smiled confidently and walked into the office.

"do not come!"

"I told you not to come any closer..."

Chen Wei completely ignored Zhao Qing's warning.

"Can't you hear me? I told you not to come any closer!"

Phew!

Zhao Qing hardened her heart and suddenly exerted force on her hand.
