"President Lu is absolutely right! Your former butler was a foreigner, but I am undoubtedly a citizen of Z Country. How could I possibly be a spy."
The middle-aged man echoed the sentiment.
The matter of Butler Wu being a spy was also classified, known only to high-ranking officials; it must have been Li Mingguo who told this man about it.
But the fact that he even knew that Butler Wu was a foreigner gave Lu Ming cause for concern.
Would Li Mingguo go out of his way to tell others about what kind of person Butler Wu was?
Hearing the man's words, Lu Ming's eyes deepened. He chose not to say more.
But Lu Ming's silence only made Li Mingguo even more nervous; aside from Lu Ming, Li Mingguo realized that his subordinate had misspoken.
With Lu Ming keeping quiet, Li Mingguo naturally couldn't pretend to be unaware and voice anything more. If he exploded in anger, it would likely be an admission of guilt.
