Chapter 802 Now it's his turn to be troubled over a glass of water.
Nakamura stood there, stunned and wide-eyed, clearly having suffered a great shock.
His expression puzzled everyone, and they all turned their curious gazes to the small document. Those who had something to hide were already starting to feel uneasy, just like Nakamura Tadashi.
Matsumoto Ken was the most upset. He opened his mouth and asked softly, "What's wrong, Nakamura?"
Unable to contain his curiosity, Cheng Pide moved closer, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the documents and Chu Xin's face, his mind racing with various speculations about her possible identity.
Nakamura snapped out of his daze at Matsumoto Ken's question, immediately took a few steps back to distance himself from Chu Xin, and then leaned close to Matsumoto Ken's ear to whisper something.
"Why are you sneaking around? It's not like I'm anything shameful." Chu Xin smiled as she watched the other person's flustered appearance, but the image of Nakamura Masashi's furtive figure came to mind again. Combined with the fact that someone who came to China to participate in a foreign trade fair knew what the Central Special Branch of China did, she already had a small plan in mind.
After hearing Nakamura's whispered words, Matsumoto Ken panicked. The situation was far more complicated than he had imagined, and in his panic, he almost tried to grab the machine on the coffee table and run away.
Cheng Pide was completely bewildered. Seeing that Nakamura Masashi and Matsumoto Ken's expressions were becoming increasingly strange, he could no longer contain his curiosity and walked up to Chu Xin, asking hesitantly, "Comrade, what's going on?"
"Oh, let me show you too!" Chu Xin didn't think that her identity was anything special to the Chinese people, and casually handed her work ID to Cheng Pide.
Cheng Pide took the notebook and glanced at it. The forced smile on his serious face vanished instantly, replaced by a tight line at the corners of his mouth. He lowered his voice and stared at the person opposite him as he asked, "You, is there a problem with our work? Oh, no, is there a problem with these Japanese people?"
Chu Xin smiled slightly, her expression ambiguous, and said, "It was a lucky accident, but it's pretty close to the truth."
Just as Cheng Pide was about to ask more questions, someone came in and reported to him, "Director Cheng, someone outside wants to come in looking for their companion. They say the person might be here."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Pide looked at Chu Xin.
Chu Xin had already guessed who it was, so she nodded, "Yes, it's someone I know. Let them in."
Cheng Pide nodded and then told them to let the person in.
Over here, Ken Matsushita had already listened to Masashi Nakamura finish speaking. When he looked up at Chu Xin, he softened his tone despite his reluctance.
"So you're a friend from a special agency of the Chinese government. It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, hahaha. We won't pursue this matter any further and will be leaving soon. Please calm down, miss."
Chu Xin smiled and said, "Mr. Matsumoto, you're too kind. I just stopped by to take a look and join in the fun. There's nothing between us."
Upon hearing this, Matsumoto Ken's expression relaxed slightly, and his tense nerves eased a little before he heard a clear female voice continue, "However, one thing is one thing. You can't be careless about what Director Cheng asked you to do. This matter could be big or small, so I think you'd better do as he says."
"Of course, you can also choose to accept the water from Director Cheng, and that way everyone can also let bygones be bygones."
"Mr. Matsumoto, what do you think?"
Matsumoto Ken clenched his fists tightly, and his gaze toward Chu Xin turned gloomy.
It's true what they say, fortunes change. Just a moment ago he was smugly waiting for Cheng Pide to bow down, but now it's his turn to be troubled over a cup of water.
