Xiao Meng turned around and called Engineer Gao, "Boss, Engineer Song said he wants to treat me to dinner tonight. Should I go or not?"

"Of course! Let's see what tricks he has to play."

"Okay, got it, leader."

"Xiao Meng, you must remember to record your entire conversation." Engineer Gao reminded.

"Understood, leader."

Song Qingyuan not only invited Xiao Meng, but also called in the quality inspector. It can be said that he had good intentions.

Logically speaking, Song Qingyuan is one level higher than the two of them in terms of position, but in front of them, Song Qingyuan behaved extremely modestly and low-key, with a flattering tone, and took the initiative to get close to the two of them.

Song Qingyuan knew very well that if he wanted to steal the technology, he had to first deal with the two people in front of him and gain their favor and trust.

After all, the two of them would be the ones he would face the most and spend the longest time with in the days ahead.

During the meal, everyone chatted casually about this and that, but after half a bottle of wine, Song Qingyuan's topic gradually shifted to work.

He took the initiative to raise his glass and smiled at Xiao Meng, "Master Meng, one for us."

Xiao Meng quickly waved his hand, "Mr. Song, don't call me Master. I'm a few years younger than you. Just call me Xiao Meng."

After clinking glasses, he picked up the cigarette and handed it to Xiao Meng and the quality inspector, then asked:

"Xiao Meng, what's the current progress of our company's arena project?"

Xiao Meng lit a cigarette and said casually, "The progress is quite fast. We have completed two-thirds of the project. It's as fast as a rocket."

Xiao Meng's face flushed from drinking. He stretched out his arms and made a rocket-like gesture, smacking his lips and saying:

"At this rate, the project will be completed two months ahead of schedule, creating a miracle."

Song Qing's expression was extremely exaggerated, full of surprise.

"Xiao Meng, I heard you started construction right after the Spring Festival, and you've already completed two-thirds of the project in such a short time. You're incredible! How did you do it?"

Xiao Meng deliberately teased Song Qingyuan, "Our President Wang has developed a new construction plan, otherwise how could it be done so quickly!"

"A new construction plan? No wonder..."

Song Qingyuan rolled his eyes and said, "It seems I have to take you as my master and learn new construction techniques from you..."

Xiao Meng picked up a piece of chicken leg and ate it until his mouth was full of oil. He said as he ate:

"Why learn that? It's a waste of brainpower. Last time, Senior Engineer insisted that I study the entire process thoroughly. I agreed verbally, but secretly didn't take it seriously at all. I'm very satisfied with my current life. In my opinion, being a construction worker for the rest of my life is not bad."

Xiao Meng had a tone of despair. He swallowed a large mouthful of meat and put his arm around Song Qingyuan's shoulders. His eyes were hazy with drunkenness, and he couldn't even speak straight.

"Engineer Song, I... I'm not drunk. Please don't follow my example. I'm the type... not ambitious. Your future... is bright. You need to study hard. One day, you'll become... the chief engineer of our company."

Song Qingyuan took advantage of the situation and put his arm around Xiao Meng's waist, saying, "Brother, I've already decided on you, so I'll learn from you."

Xiao Meng shook his head. "If you learn from me... you can only learn the basics. You need to learn from Mr. Pei and... from Engineer Gao to get the essence."

Song Qingyuan pressed the issue, "Brother, do you have any information? If so, I'd like to take a look at it first to familiarize myself with it."

"I don't have the information... That crap, it gives me a headache just looking at it. Engineer Gao has it. Oh, and the project office seems to have it too. The last time I saw Engineer Gao, he found it in the office cabinet, but..."

Xiao Meng shook his head. "That cabinet is usually... locked. One time, after taking out some information... he forgot to lock it. I looked through it, and it was mostly... new process technology information. I flipped through it... and I couldn't understand it. My head hurt..."

The quality inspector laughed and teased, "Boss Meng, you're not drunk, are you? It seems we're the same. I also have a headache after seeing all that information."

"I'm not drunk... I could drink another kilogram... and nothing would happen... My alcohol tolerance is... in the kilogram range..."

A few minutes after Xiao Meng finished speaking, he lay down on the dining table and started snoring.

The quality inspector shook his head helplessly. "Engineer Song, Xiao Meng must have been drunk. That's his problem. He talks without restraint after drinking a little, but when you ask him again the next day after he sobers up, he won't remember anything he said."

He does not mean that.

Song Qingyuan was secretly delighted in his heart. He knew that people would speak the truth after drinking.

It seems that my previous guess was correct. All the confidential technologies are hidden in that locked cabinet.

Moreover, Song Qingyuan knew that Xiao Meng and the quality inspector didn't have the key, and the key was with the senior engineer, so he still had a chance to see the information...

After sleeping for more than ten minutes, Xiao Meng suddenly raised his head, picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "Mr. Song, drink... Have fun tonight... Don't go home until you are drunk."

"Okay, I won't leave until I'm drunk. Cheers!"

In fact, Xiao Meng was not drunk at all. He and the quality inspector were just acting in front of Song Qingyuan.

Song Qingyuan suddenly asked, "Xiao Meng, why don't you ask Engineer Gao for a key? It would be more convenient for you to work."

Xiao Meng curled his lips with a look of disdain:

"Oh my god, I'm not... that stupid. I'm just... looking for trouble. Think about it, if I asked for the key, Senior Engineer would make me... study the materials all day long. What's the point? I can just lie down and play games after get off work... Isn't that better?"

Song Qingyuan agreed, "But it's true, researching that stuff does take up a lot of brain cells..."

After this meal, Song Qingyuan had a basic understanding of the situation.

He secretly rejoiced. The next step was to wait for an opportunity. If one day the senior engineer forgot to lock the cabinet, then his chance would come...

But what he didn't know was that his every move was now under the surveillance of Engineer Gao.

He was so smart that he thought he could get important clues from Xiao Meng in exchange for a meal, but he didn't know that these clues were leaked to him intentionally by Xiao Meng.

On Pei Shaojie's side, he asked someone to finally find out Song Qingyuan's resume.

He was surprised to find that Song Qingyuan's resume intentionally omitted his five years of work experience at Licheng Group.

Such important work experience was erased by him, and Pei Shaojie suspected that there must be something wrong.

He told this discovery to Engineer Gao, who immediately reported the situation to Sun Xue and Wang Ke.

After analyzing the situation and considering the various events that had occurred before, the two of them immediately concluded that Song Qingyuan must be an undercover agent sent by the Licheng Group.
