"To tell you the truth, I don't know where she is."
"That's impossible. She was living in your South Side Recuperation Center. She only left the hospital when you had your birthday party."
Obviously, Secretary Zeng knew Zeng Rou's activities very well.
"But she's a patient in the hospital. Her whereabouts is her personal business and I don't have the right to intervene… I've been looking for her and trying to contact her. I even pulled out the video surveillance of the hospital but found no clues. I think you'd better ask her bodyguards. They guarded her and should know better than I do."
Huo Mian didn't stammer just because the man was the party secretary of the provincial government.
Instead, she replied with dignity and even revealed a trace of disapproval about Zeng Rou.
Director Wu listened to their conversation in silence. In fact, he was totally in the dark.
