597 Casually


    In the office, the canteen manager, who was watching the surveince video, heaved a sigh of relief.


    He leaned back on the soft sofa, ignoring the other two people who appeared in the office.


    “Are you sure you mixed the package I gave you into Chu Ning’s lunch?” the manager asked worriedly.


    “You can check the surveince cameras,” the fat chef answered coolly.


    “Alright.” Unexpectedly, the manager nodded and sat up. He sat in front of theputer and checked the surveince footage.


    A few minutester, the manager finished watching Chu Ning line up and take her food. He looked at the fat chef and asked with a frown, “Why did you ask her if she could ept a little sweetness?”


    The manager didn’t want any mishaps to happen. This would mean that he wouldn’t get the 6 million yuan. More importantly, either do it well or don’t do it at all — he had to get a definite result. If he did it but failed, he couldn’t ept it.


    “If she doesn’t consume it, we can take action again tomorrow. Anyway, the ultimate goal is to make her take this drug. In that case, it’s best to be safe,” the fat chef exined unhurriedly.


    “Fortunately, I finally seeded.” The manager uneasily watched the surveince video on theputer several times to confirm that Chu Ning was really eating that unique dish.


    “Manager, then the remainder…” Xia Fei felt a little uneasy and excited. He looked at the manager, wanting to ask when he could get the remaining million.


    “What’s the hurry? Even I’m not in a hurry!” Before Xia Fei could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the manager.


    He nced at Xia Fei impatiently. Since he had confirmed that Chu Ning had consumed that mysterious poison, these two were no longer of much use to him.


    The manager was even thinking of looking for an opportunity to fire the two of them after a period of time. As for the remaining million yuan, he did not intend to pay them.


    He had already given out 2 million. His heart ached so much that it felt like it was bleeding. It was unrealistic for him to continue paying.


    Thinking of how Chu Ning hade to the canteen not long ago to monopolize the source of ingredients, the manager felt somewhat scornful.


    “Youngdy, so what if you’re high and mighty? Aren’t you still going to be punished!” As the manager thought of this, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.


    He looked at the two people in front of him again.


    Even if they were fired, they would not dare to reveal this matter. After all, they were also criminals.


    Now, the manager could control the pair of them.


    “You guys go back first and do what you need to do. As for when I’ll give you the money, wait for the notification!” The manager waved his hand impatiently and gestured for the two of them to leave.


    Xia Fei looked at the testy expression on the manager’s face and casually asked, “Alright, I don’t intend to take this money anyway.”


    “What did you say?” The manager looked at Xia Fei’s nonchnt expression, and his pupils constricted before returning to normal.


    “I said, we never expected to get that 1 million yuan,” Xia Fei repeated.


    The manager clutched his chest and said bitterly, “At least you still have some conscience. It’s already not bad that I gave each of you a million yuan. After all, it’s just a drug. The person who really bears the risk is me; I’m the one truly facing great pressure.


    “But don’t worry. If you perform well in the canteen, I’ll consider giving you a raise,” the manager added pleasantly.


    Although he had a feeling that something was off with the two of them, the manager was still very confident that he could control them.


    When the fat chef heard this, he shook his head helplessly.


    “You still don’t understand what I’m saying.” Xia Fei smiled. He stopped standing and gazed at the clock hanging on the wall before plonking down on the sofa.


    “Xia Fei, that’s for receiving guests,” the manager reminded, looking at Xia Fei, who had no qualms.


    “I know. Am I not a guest? Or rather, what does this have to do with you?” Xia Fei said disapprovingly.


    “You…!” The manager could no longer stand Xia Fei’s unscrupulous appearance. This challenged his authority, and he could no longer suppress the rage in his heart.


    How dare a subordinate of his contradict him like this?


    “Manager, calm down first.” The fat chef also interrupted him, but the faint smile on his face indicated that he was also very casual, just not as obvious as Xia Fei.


    The manager’s gaze darted back and forth between the two of them. He quickly calcted what would happen next, but it shouldn’t be anything good. He had a bad feeling.


    Ten secondster, he heard a distant siren from outside the office.
