In the office, Liu Ruoyue sat alone at her desk, looking at the sudden drop in Xingyue's stock market on the laptop on her desk, Liu Ruoyue couldn't help but frown.
On the jade face, a haggard look appeared, and two months had passed.
The company's situation is becoming increasingly pessimistic. In more than a month, the time will be up. If I don't have the contract documents for my father to take charge of Xingyue, the US government will intervene...
But my own people have been out for a month, and there is no frown at all.
Ta-ta!
At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded from outside, and then Michael had entered the office, panting non-stop. Because of the excitement, Michael stuttered about what he wanted to say to Liu Ruoyue.
"Michael, what happened?" Seeing this, Liu Ruoyue quickly poured a cup of tea for Michael and handed it over, saying with an eager look, "Don't be anxious, speak slowly."
After taking the tea, Michael took two swigs of it, then calmed down and said, "Ruoyue, I found it, I found the old director's contract."
"What!" Liu Ruoyue's eyes widened with shock.
"Found it, found it!" Michael nodded and laughed.
"Really..." Liu Ruoyue felt as if she was in a dream. She murmured softly like a dream, and then asked excitedly, "Michael, tell me, where is he?"
"The old director gave his contract to one of his old servants before he died."
"Where is the old servant now?"
"In a small town on the edge of Washington, he heard that we were looking for him, so he contacted us. I went to check it out, and the old man took out a photo of the old director and some tokens of the old director. There was absolutely no
Wrong, but he will not give it to you until he makes sure you are the daughter of the old director."
"I'll go, wherever, we'll go right away!" Liu Ruoyue nodded directly without any hesitation. It's no wonder that Liu Ruoyue has been trying his best to deal with this matter in the United States for more than five months.
If it goes on, it will collapse sooner or later. She wants to solve it quickly all the time.
"Okay, okay, I'll send someone to prepare." Michael was also worried about the long night and dreams, so he nodded hurriedly.
The old man lived in a small village on the edge of Washington. Liu Ruoyue, Michael, and a few others drove four cars there.
When approaching the village, there were no roads anymore, and the bumpy roads in the countryside seemed a bit bumpy, but it did not affect Ruoyue's speed.
About ten minutes later, the group arrived at this small town, and Liu Ruoyue also found the place where the old man Michael told her lived.
The place where this old man lives is somewhat abandoned and dilapidated. There are a few dry and dead trees standing in a mess around the house. There are several cracks on the house. At first glance, it gives the impression that no one has lived there for many years.
"Michael, are you sure you are here?" Liu Ruoyue frowned slightly.
"certainly."
"After you go back, ask the company to allocate funds to invest in this village." Liu Ruoyue thought for a while and said.
"no problem."
"Yes." Liu Ruoyue nodded, and then walked into the courtyard alone. When she came to the door of the house, Liu Ruoyue knocked gently.
After only half a breath, the door was gently opened. Standing in front of the door was a hunched old man about 1.5 meters tall. The old man was wearing hemp brown clothes. The clothes were very torn and had many holes patched, which is enough to show that
The old man lived a very poor life, but his bright eyes showed that the old man was in good spirits.
"Are you the old master's daughter?" The old man looked Liu Ruoyue up and down, and before Liu Ruoyue could say anything, the old man shouted excitedly.
"Yes, you..."
"It's me. I'm holding the old master's contract. Come in, little master. I've been waiting for you for twenty years. It's great that I finally waited for you today." The old man narrated quietly, and then
Turn around and walk back into the house.
Liu Ruoyue hesitated for a while, and then followed in.
But as soon as I entered, the door suddenly closed.
Liu Ruoyue was so frightened that her heart skipped a beat. Seeing the old man rummaging around on the bedside, Liu Ruoyue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiaoyue..." Suddenly the old man turned his head.
"Ah...well..."
…………
Half an hour later, Liu Ruoyue still didn't come out. Michael, who was waiting outside, was a little anxious. If he hadn't personally watched Liu Ruoyue enter the house, Michael would have definitely gone to find Liu Ruoyue.
But now, Michael could no longer hold back his eagerness. After all, Liu Ruoyue had been in there for so long, so she should have gotten everything.
"Michael, has something happened to the lady? How about we go in and take a look?" Another person who followed was also a little anxious.
"Wait a minute, I should keep my word." Michael shook his head.
So I waited another ten minutes or so.
The door of the cabin in front was still closed, with no sign of opening.
"Michael, I think we'd better take a look and make sure nothing really happens." The person who just spoke said again.
"Okay." Michael hesitated for a moment and then said.
After saying that, several people walked inside.
And when the door of the hut was pushed open, several people were all stunned because... there was no one in the house.
"Miss"
"Wakatsuki"
Several people shouted in unison.
"Quickly, look for someone!" Michael reacted immediately.
"Michael, I can't find it, I can't find it." Everyone searched for a while, but still no one was found.
"Fake! Did he disappear out of thin air!" Michael cursed. He was wondering why the person disappeared even though he had been standing guard outside.
"Get the village chief quickly!" Michael was not carried away yet.
"Yes, yes."
On the one hand, Michael called the police, and on the other hand, he sent people to find the village chief. As long as the old man is from the village, he will be found, definitely!
About half an hour later, Michael sent someone to find the village chief. The village chief was an old man who had passed Guxi and had some difficulty walking.
"Tell me, who is the old man living here?" Michael asked with an anxious look on his face as he held on to the old village chief's arm.
"Dear outsider, what are you talking about?" The old man seemed to have something wrong with his ears and did not hear it.
"Who am I talking about the old man living here?!" Michael yelled loudly in the old man's ear.
"Oh, no, no, you are mistaken, no one lives here at all." The old man looked at Michael with a strange expression, "No one has lived here for twenty years."
