Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1368: Chapter 1368: Who Pulled the Strings

Jiang Xue returned home, where several elderly people were already resting. She didn’t disturb them and silently went upstairs.

Once upstairs, she picked up the phone and contacted Shangguan Wenbin, asking him about Jin Hao. If her suspicions were correct, then Jin Hao had approached her with a plan, and she wanted to know who the intermediary was.

After all, Jin Hao was from M Country, and without someone to connect them, he might not have been able to find Shangguan Wenbin and subsequently meet her.

The phone quickly connected as Shangguan Wenbin had just finished his socializing and returned home. He was very happy when he received Jiang Xue’s call because he had closed another deal.

Although the deal wasn’t as large as Mr. Jin’s, it was substantial, totaling about one million in payment.

"Sis, you’re done with your socializing?" Shangguan Wenbin asked with a smile.

"I just got home."

"Really? I just got home too. By the way, Sis, how are things going with Mr. Jin?" Shangguan Wenbin asked somewhat eagerly, as Mr. Jin’s deal was a significant order; if they secured it, they wouldn’t need new orders for the next two or three years—production won’t keep up.

"Wenbin, I was planning to ask you about Mr. Jin."

Upon hearing the undertone in Jiang Xue’s voice, Shangguan Wenbin’s heart tightened, and he asked, "Sis, what’s wrong?"

"Wenbin, I harbor suspicious feelings about Mr. Jin’s identity. Plus, tonight I wanted to see his company’s credentials, but he couldn’t provide them."

"Sis, are you telling me the negotiations with Mr. Jin fell through?"

"You could say that."

"What? No, that was a major order."

"Wenbin, I know it was a major order, but we can’t just overlook other issues just because his order is large. If Mr. Jin’s identity is problematic, if this order is just a bait?"

"So what you mean, Sis, is that we’re not taking his order?"

"I didn’t say we wouldn’t take it, but only after we clarify his intentions and identity. So what I want to ask you now is, how did Mr. Jin contact you? Was there an intermediary involved?"

Upon hearing Jiang Xue’s inquiry, Shangguan Wenbin immediately became serious and said, "Sis, Mr. Jin was indeed introduced by someone else, who is also one of our clients and placed a somewhat decent order with us."

"What’s the client’s name?" Jiang Xue asked. As she suspected, there indeed was someone acting as an intermediary.

However, she didn’t know whether the intermediary had intentions or acted unwittingly. If it was intentional, then that person’s identity might be suspicious. If it was unintentional, she naturally wouldn’t trouble them.

Nevertheless, whether intentional or not, Jiang Xue planned to have someone investigate it. If it were before, she would have asked Mu Qiancheng for help with the investigation.

But now, since these people could be involved with MD Group, she decided it was better to leave the investigation to Mr. Lan and his team.

Shangguan Wenbin quickly reported the client’s name to Jiang Xue, along with the company’s name, address, and phone number.

Jiang Xue noted down the information and then called Mr. Lan, asking him to investigate the client’s identity.

Of course, she also entrusted Mr. Lan with looking into Jin Hao’s identity. However, Jiang Xue didn’t hold much hope.

If Jin Hao’s identity was as she suspected, then it’s possible Mr. Lan’s team might not find anything.
