Chapter 689: Negotiating in Secret

Xu Ziyao didn't believe that her adoptive father was really worried about what would happen to her as he said, she preferred to believe that he was afraid that she would do something outside that he couldn't control, so he had to keep her by his side so that he could monitor her closely.

But no matter what, being able to attend this banquet is already a breakthrough, Xu Ziyao didn't hesitate, she agreed very happily: "I know my father, then I'll prepare now." ”

When she went back to change her clothes, Xu Ziyao secretly edited a text message to Gu Hanqing, telling him the address that her adoptive father had just told her, and asking him to be careful and find a way to investigate.

After the text message was sent, Xu Ziyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, she changed into a more gorgeous set of clothes for herself, and when she went out, she found that her adoptive father was already waiting for her outside the living room.

She looked at her adoptive father in front of her, and a shy smile appeared on her face: "I'm sorry, father, did you make you wait for a long time?" I'm ready, let's go. ”

The adoptive father stood up and looked her up and down a few times, and found that the clothes she was wearing matched his requirements, so he nodded with satisfaction.

The two of them walked outside together, and when they arrived at the scene in the banquet hall, their adoptive father introduced Xu Ziyao to someone he knew: "This is what I often mention to you, my adopted daughter Xu Ziyao, you can call her Ziyao." ”

Although Xu Ziyao didn't know who the person in front of him was, seeing him so close to his adoptive father, he probably understood in his heart that he was probably a business partner.

Doing this kind of bad business together, even if they don't like each other, they have to pretend to be very harmonious on the surface.

Xu Ziyao looked at the person quietly, and directly saw that he was looking at her with a strange look, and she immediately smiled and raised the wine glass in her hand to the person: "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”

Xu Ziyao was already so active, and that person naturally didn't want to continue to stare at her, and also raised his wine glass and shook it at her: "I'm also very happy to meet you." ”

The adoptive father laughed and patted the two of them on the shoulder, and asked them to have a good chat here: "I'm very happy to see you talking, and the dance music has already begun, you two can dance here, I'll go to the bathroom." ”

The adoptive father said, and directly handed Xu Ziyao's hand into the hands of that person, and didn't even give her a chance to refuse, and that person even dragged Xu Ziyao directly into the dance floor.

has already started dancing, Xu Ziyao can't even if she wants to quit at this time, she can only watch her adoptive father leave in front of her, and she has to concentrate on dealing with the dance partner in front of her.

finally finished dancing a dance song, Xu Ziyao immediately wanted to find her adoptive father, and she found an excuse to get rid of the dance partner in front of her.

Then he looked around for the traces of his adoptive father, and the adoptive father on the other side immediately went to a secret room upstairs to negotiate with his business partner when he got rid of Xu Ziyao.

The two of them sat facing each other and chatted in a good way, completely unaware that there was already an extra person at the entrance of the stairs not far from the room.

Xu Ziyao looked at the few bodyguards standing at the door of the room, her brows furrowed tightly, these bodyguards had been guarding the room, and she had no way to go over there to check.

There are so many bodyguards around here, and she knows that there must be some important people inside, and she estimates that her adoptive father should be in this room.

But with so many people blocked, she couldn't go over there to check, and she couldn't verify whether her guess was correct......

Just when Xu Ziyao was looking at the other side and was in a trance, the door of the room had been opened at some point, and the adoptive father walked outside, and there was another person who came out with him.

The two of them talked as they walked, and they seemed to be chatting very happily, and the laughter of the adoptive father was particularly obvious.

Xu Ziyao was startled by their voices, and quickly retracted her head behind the wall at the entrance of the building, but they heard the sound coming towards this side, and if they continued to stand here for a while, they would definitely be discovered.

What to do, what to do? Just when Xu Ziyao was in a panic, a hand suddenly reached out next to her and grabbed her wrist and dragged her into a dark place.

Originally, Xu Ziyao wanted to scream, but before she shouted, she suddenly remembered her adoptive father who was walking towards this side now.

Compared with being dragged into a dark place by a stranger, it is more terrifying to be discovered by her adoptive father, at least she can find a way to escape by this stranger, but when she is discovered by her adoptive father, then her plan is completely over.

In an instant, she immediately covered her mouth tightly with the uncontrolled hand, and did not dare to say a word, allowing the other person to drag her into the dark corner.

The adoptive father's laughter came from the other side, and at this moment, he was very close to the two of them, and Xu Ziyao felt that his heartbeat was almost about to jump out.

She had no doubt that her adoptive father would be able to spot the two of them at once if he came over a little, and she wanted to go inside again, but the man behind her blocked her body, trying not to let him make any movement.

At this time, if you find a little movement, it will be the fate of being discovered by them immediately, Xu Ziyao also understood this after calming down, so she didn't continue to move.

The adoptive father's voice came with a smile: "Then it's decided, I wish the two of us a happy cooperation." ”

"Yes, I wish the two of us a happy cooperation." The other man laughed as well, apparently this was his adoptive father's business partner.

The adoptive father is in the drug business, and the person who gets together with him is definitely not a good person, Xu Ziyao can't wait to rush out and catch both of them directly.

But she also understands that she is alone at this time, and even if she runs out, she will not be able to control the two of them at all, at most she will just let them kill herself.

Therefore, she had been firmly restraining herself, not allowing herself to make any superfluous movements, until the footsteps of the two people were getting farther and farther away, and the sound had completely disappeared, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

She reached out and pushed the person behind her, trying to get him to let go of her: "Hey, both of them are already gone, can you let go of me?" ”
