Chapter 243 - SMART AND CALCULATING
Hu Lei washed up before sitting down with a contemplative look while waiting for food.
"It should be easy to find the video copies that Song Lili has hidden." She said with certainty.
Zhong Feng looked at her with a frown. "She knows that it will not be hard for me to find and erase all copies of the file whether she stores it on her phone, computer or the cloud. She has definitely hidden a hard copy somewhere."
Hu Lei chuckled.
"That is true. But I am sure that she has not hidden it too far from herself. Right now, she is still new in the city and does not have anyone that she trusts. So, she cannot afford to hide the video clip with anyone else. Moreover, even if she trusted anyone, she would not give a copy to them."
Zhong Feng frowned. "Why are you so sure?"
Hu Lei pouted in annoyance at the question. She was sure because Song Lili liked Zhong Feng so much to the point of obsession. She would not want anyone else to have information which could hurt him. But this obsession would work to their advantage.
"She would not want to lose control of the situation." She answered perfunctorily.
Zhong Feng did not push further. He placed the food on the kitchen table before sitting next to Hu Lei. He smiled as he looked at her. He felt like his heart was drowning in warm sugar. He could not believe that he had survived for so long without her.
"I don't want to leave any hidden danger." He paused. "Eat."
Hu Lei did not need another invite. She had missed Zhong Feng's cooking. Even though the food at the Huo family was good, it had heavier tastes which she did not like. Everything that Ah-Feng cooked always matched her palate.
"Do not worry. We will cover all the bases." Hu Lei chewed on a mouthful of food with pleasure on her face. "I assume that you have been tracking her movements."
"There is nothing unusual. She has not had contact with anyone unusual, and she spends most of her time at work before returning to her apartment.���
"Does her family have any property, monuments or something like that?" She asked.
"Most of the Song property was sold when the family moved abroad except for the ancestral home."
Hu Lei nodded, her brain working with the efficiency it did when she was dealing with situations with her father. Unlike before, she did not feel the mental blockage about her past which made her feel uncomfortable about taking action as Hu Lei.
"My guess is that she will have about three copies of the video. The most secure place for her to hide it is in her apartment, probably in a safe. She will feel secure with the information close-by. However, she has probably hidden additional copies in case of an unexpected situation. So, she will probably place one in the ancestral home." Hu Lei spoke with certainty.
Zhong Feng agreed with the analysis. "What about the third one?"
"It is possible that she might keep a copy of the video on her." Hu Lei said. "All we need to do is obtain all of them, and we can deal with her with a mere lift of a finger."
Zhong Feng smiled once again when he saw the smart and calculating look on his wife's face. "So what is the plan?"
"We need to deal with her before the anniversary party of Zhong Industries. So, we should take action as soon as possible. The most important thing is to organize a lot of work for Song Lili to keep her out of her home. Actually, it would be better if she could be out of the city for about three days." Hu Lei sighed.
She usually would not require that much time to deal with small issues such as these, but she wanted to be completely sure that there would be no danger.
"I will go into her apartment building and look for the video as soon as she is gone. Then, we will look for the copy in her ancestral home. Finally, we will intercept her while she is returning and check her luggage. After that, you can erase the video file from her devices."
Zhong Feng felt that it was plausible, but he did not want her to do the work herself.
"We can get someone to do this. I have a lot of capable people."
"None of them is as good as me. Plus, I would like to do this. You know, keep in touch with my Jane."
Zhong Feng was shocked at the words. While he knew about Jane, she had never mentioned the name with casual frivolity. She always seemed to hide that part of her from him. Now, he felt like he had been given the greatest gift.
He pulled her from her chair and kissed her questioning face.
"I am coming with you. We will do this together." He said.
Hu Lei thought about it and nodded. "But I will be the boss. You must listen to me."
"Alright. But tonight, I am the boss." Zhong Feng said before lifting her into his arms. She shrieked in surprise before giggling as he carried her to their bedroom.
