I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier Chapter 691: Not Just a Simple Stumbling Block

"Is there really such closeness? But, over all these years, it seems you have never ntioned anything about Sixth Master and you have always been following the arrangents of Old Master Guo, what's the explanation for all this?"

"Old Master Guo, at that ti, also followed Sixth Master, and I was also following Sixth Master. However, I was not directly taking orders from Sixth Master, but always from Old Master Guo. It was a relationship of subordination."

"But, I feel like the relationship between you and Sixth Master isn't that simple, is it?"

"That's correct, it indeed wasn't that simple. Before Old Master Guo took over this matter, I was actually in direct contact with Sixth Master. At that ti, I grew up by his side, starting as a minor follower and eventually becoming the vice president of the company."

"What? Vice president of the company?"

"Yes, do you really think that people like us only work as bodyguards for others? We have our own company and identities. So, at that ti, I was a vice president in Sixth Master's family conglorate."

"Oh, I see, I had never heard you ntion this before, and to think, you were even involved in other matters."

"Yes, the business side of the company isn't as simple as you might imagine. I held that position for about 13 years and then I stepped down from that place."

"Is doing business really that difficult?"

"Well, it's not necessarily difficult, but it's not simple either. There are just too many twists and turns involved. However, I can't explain it all in just a sentence or two. Also, is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Since it was that kind of relationship, no wonder, when they approached you back then, you took on the task without hesitation, because you knew what we would be facing, right?"

"Yes, I only know that Miss Lin is a very significant figure to their entire family, but honestly, I am still completely unaware of the specifics, after all, it's their family's fate."

At this point, Ye Chen had just picked up a cup of tea and was about to sip it when he finished speaking and suddenly fell silent.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say? You said, carrying the family's mission? Carrying the family's secrets? Are you talking about Lin Yaru?"

"Yes, I only knew about such matters, so I entrusted Lin Yaru's protection to you, because I knew that you alone could handle it, unlike anyone else who probably couldn't manage it easily."

"If that's the case, then I think we should be able to start rembering everything from the beginning, and then carefully consider how to handle it all."

"Yes, that's exactly how it is. Moreover, many situations aren't quite as we imagine, so no matter what, we must stick to it and continue moving forward."

"To be honest, I t with Sixth Master today."

"I know, I also know that you discovered so important clues at the dock, so reporting to Sixth Master was a very correct choice."

"It's just that I suddenly bypassed you this ti because I couldn't afford to involve too many people in this matter, after all, the fewer people who know, the better, so, this was my intended target."

"Anyway, what you plan to do, I have already fully grasped. Moreover, whatever you want to do, you can do it without consulting , after all, this is sothing Sixth Master personally taught you, and he doesn't want too many people to know about it from all sides."

After saying this, he nodded lightly, initially feeling a bit embarrassed for bypassing Li Fu, but under the current circumstances, he felt that even if he spoke more arguntatively, it seed aningless to cover it all up.

"So, does that an I should focus on this matter next?"

"No, not just on this matter, you also have to take on the business affairs of the Guo family; besides you, probably no one else can truly handle it."

"Old Li, I've always said that I really don't understand business at all, and I'm also unclear about what exactly is going on. Giving the business to handle sounds like a fanciful tale. Moreover, it might end up stirring up a ss, leaving no room to salvage the situation."

"No, do you really think it's about doing business? Rest assured, business affairs have nothing to do with you. Now, they are involved in a whole conspiracy circle, and what you need to do is help him eliminate these stumbling blocks."

"Eliminating these stumbling blocks, given the old master's current situation, I think he is fully capable of it. I am just very curious why this task was assigned to ?"

"Because, he simply can't show his face, and what he's dealing with isn't just superficial stuff, it involves a much bigger conspiracy. Therefore, you must dig deep to truly discover what exactly happened."

"What? Another conspiracy?"

Ye Chen didn't even know how to comnt on this matter anymore, always feeling that one issue after another was constantly surrounding him, even making him unable to get a grip on things.

He felt a growing anxiety within him and didn't even know how long this feeling would last.

"Right, regarding this matter, I've actually already discussed it with the old master before. At that ti, you were still by Lin Yaru's side, and she had initially wanted to arrange a capable assistant, then enter his company to solve everything, and you were the first person I considered."

"But at that ti, I was protecting Miss Lin, and protecting Miss Lin and handling this matter couldn't possibly coincide, right?"
