Chapter 360: You’re Supposed to Work, Not Play Mission Impossible?
After Chen Chao left,
Chen Ye turned and looked at the company behind him.
Gao’s security company was truly impressive. He had actually bought an entire office building, and it was right in the city center.
Just this building alone must have cost over a hundred million.
Who knows how much money that guy has made?
After registering at the security desk, Chen Ye entered the building.
At the front desk, a young woman quickly approached him.
"Hello, sir, are you here for security services?"
"No, I have an appointnt with your Director Gao."
"May I have your na, sir?"
"My surna is Chen."
"One mont, please... Director Gao said you can go directly to his office. By the way, his office is on the top floor."
Chen Ye nodded and entered the elevator under the receptionist’s watchful gaze.
When he arrived at the top floor, the elevator doors opened to a huge reception room. Next to it was a secretary’s office, and the secretary inside was alluring and voluptuous.
Chen Ye rembered that Gao’s taste was exactly this type.
It looked like this guy was really living the good life now.
When there’s work, the secretary handles it; when there isn’t, he handles the secretary...
"Hello, you must be Director Gao’s classmate, Mr. Chen Ye?"
The secretary imdiately noticed Chen Ye and ca out to greet him.
Chen Ye nodded, "Yes."
The secretary said, "Director Gao is in a eting. Please have a seat and wait a mont."
Chen Ye nodded again and sat on the sofa in the reception room.
His hearing was exceptional, and he could already hear people discussing sothing in the adjacent chairman’s office.
"These past two months, business has dropped a bit."
"There are only so many companies locally. The potential client base is fixed, and we’re already saturated. It’s normal for business to decline."
"The neighboring city..."
"No, that’s Hyena Squad’s turf. If we try to move in, there’ll be misunderstandings."
"But those guys from Hyena Squad aren’t even in the security business. If they’re not doing it, why can’t we? Worst case, we can explain and give them a small share."
"You make it sound easy. Those Hyena Squad people are all arrogant bullies, especially Hyena himself. He’s the type to eat you alive—he’s not easy to deal with."
Hearing this,
Chen Ye kept a calm expression and picked up a magazine to read, but his ears were perked up...
"There’s sothing else, Gao. Lately it seems there’s a ’rat’ who’s snuck onto our turf. The higher-ups want us to cooperate and get rid of this rat!"
"A rat? What’s their background?"
"Apparently, it’s the perpetrator of the G Province 8·22 case..."
"Damn? That psycho? That bastard has over a hundred lives on his hands and still got away? Gao, you can’t take this on! That guy’s a lone wolf. I heard his overall ability is already at B-rank—even if all of us tead up, we might not be able to take him."
"Sigh! How can we refuse? The Reincarnation Bureau people don’t care about your excuses... Such a headache!"
"Gao, if you ask , we should just emigrate, get away from those people’s crap for good."
"Oh? Where would you go?"
"Just to the neighboring country. I hear it’s beco a paradise for reincarnators! You can ss with girl group mbers however you want—as long as it doesn’t go public, reincarnators can even get away with murder. They’re more arrogant than the old chaebols ever were."
"Heh, that country? What’s so great about a tiny place like that? With our strength, we’d just be soone else’s lapdogs. Besides, there’s more and more friction among the major reincarnator factions. Sooner or later, there’s bound to be a war. When that happens, places like that will be the first to be cleared out."
"Gao, aren’t you worrying too much? If you ask ..."
"All right, Zhao, that’s enough. Gao’s the captain—we listen to him."
"That’s it for today! Let’s et again when the Bureau’s people arrive."
...
Soon after,
The office door opened.
Several young n ca out of the eting room.
Gao Ming was among them, sending these "shareholders" off.
When Chen Ye saw this, he stood up.
As a newcor, it would be too rude to stay seated in front of company executives and shareholders, and it would make Gao Ming look bad.
"Hey! Old Chen, you’re here!"
Gao Ming smiled and called out, "Let introduce you—this is my old classmate, Chen Ye! He’s joining our security company starting today. Don’t you guys bully him!"
The group all looked over at Chen Ye.
So smiled kindly, while a couple of the younger ones were arrogant, not giving Chen Ye a second glance.
After everyone left,
Gao Ming brought Chen Ye into the office.
The office was equally luxurious, but at the mont it reeked of smoke.
The secretary outside ca in to tidy up, opened the window, and aired the room.
Soon,
The smoke was gone.
She also cleaned up the cigarette butts and brewed tea before leaving.
On her way out, she even threw Gao Ming a flirtatious glance...
Gao Ming was clearly pleased with his capable secretary, his face full of smiles.
After the secretary left, he invited Chen Ye to sit.
"Director Gao, back in school, I really didn’t see that you had such impressive managent skills. To manage such a large company so well, keeping everything organized and thriving!"
Chen Ye flattered him with a smile.
Gao Ming waved his hand at that. "You’ve got the wrong guy—I don’t have any real managent talent. I just hired a competent professional manager. I’m just the hands-off boss!"
"No matter what, the fact that you own such a big company is impressive."
Hearing this, a look of pride clearly appeared on Gao’s face.
He laughed and said, "Stop buttering up—let’s talk business! Old Chen, you must’ve looked into my company a bit before coming, right?"
Chen Ye nodded. "I checked out the website."
"That’s good." Gao got straight to the point: "So, which departnt do you want to join?"
"Overseas Departnt!" Chen Ye answered without the slightest hesitation.
Gao was taken aback. "Why the Overseas Departnt?"
"I saw on the website that the Overseas Departnt is hiring, and the base salary is eight thousand?" Chen Ye said directly, "I need money!"
Of course, this wasn’t the real reason.
Chen Ye didn’t care about an eight-thousand-yuan monthly salary.
He chose the Overseas Departnt mainly because it offered more freedom and frequent overseas trips, which would make it easier to investigate reincarnators in other countries.
Earth was not just his ho; it was also the base of the reincarnators. Whether for unlimited hunting rewards or to create a more peaceful environnt for his family, this ti he was prepared to do sothing big!
"Old Chen, as your old classmate, I have to tell you, the Overseas Departnt isn’t a joke!"
Gao’s face grew more serious. "Right now, our country is about the only place that’s still relatively safe. The situation elsewhere is a ss. If you join the Overseas Departnt, you’ll be traveling a lot and it’s very dangerous..."
He paused, then continued, "How about this—the Logistics Departnt is still short-staffed. Why don’t you join Logistics? The base salary is also eight thousand."
Chen Ye understood.
This was his old classmate trying to look out for him.
He appreciated it, but... he really didn’t need it!
Before Chen Ye could refuse, Gao called the head of logistics right in front of him and made it clear on the phone that Chen Ye was his old classmate.
From this, it was obvious Gao really wasn’t suited for managent!
As chairman, making personal calls like that—how would the logistics manager treat Chen Ye after this? Wasn’t he worried that Chen Ye would throw his weight around in the company later?
After a while,
Gao hung up and said to Chen Ye, "I’ve already talked to Logistics. Just report to them directly! Work hard and learn as much as you can. Since we’re old classmates, I won’t play gas with you—if you perform better than others, I’ll promote and give you a raise."
Chen Ye nodded, stood up, and said, "Thank you, Director Gao."
...
The head of logistics was a middle-aged woman.
With Gao’s personal recomndation, she was extrely warm to Chen Ye, even helping him with all the onboarding paperwork herself.
There was no probation period.
He beca a full employee right away.
And so, from that mont on, Chen Ye officially beca an employee of "Gao Ming Security Company."
Actually,
Chen Ye already had a basic plan in mind: first collect information on reincarnators and build up his strength quietly! Once he was strong enough, he’d make his move and uproot the reincarnators in one fell swoop!
In the early stage, he needed to keep a low profile. Having a legitimate job was a perfect disguise.
This was the main reason Chen Ye chose to work at Gao Ming’s company.
Now, after discovering that Gao Ming was a reincarnator, Chen Ye had decided to use Gao as his breakthrough point, planning to first gain enough trust and then gather more information about reincarnators from him...
That night,
After work, Chen Ye received a grand welco from his big brother.
Hearing that his younger brother had been officially hired, both his brother and sister-in-law were overjoyed. His sister-in-law even made a whole table of dishes to celebrate.
Chen Chao also shared the good news with their parents, then drove over to pick them up for a family dinner.
After the lively al, once their parents had left, Chen Ye told his brother he wanted to move out.
"Big brother, the company provides dorms—right next to the office building. I plan to move there so it’ll be easier to get to work."
In reality,
It was just too inconvenient to stay at ho.
His brother’s place was too small. Even showering and using the bathroom at night ant waiting in line.
Chen Chao didn’t object, but he did worry, "I don’t mind if you move, but you only just recovered... Why not stay ho a bit longer, until you’re fully better?"
"Don’t worry, big brother, I really feel fine now."
Seeing Chen Ye’s determination, Chen Chao didn’t insist.
So, the next day, Chen Ye moved into the company dorm.
Ti passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, more than two months went by...
{The buildup is complete—the exciting part is about to begin!}
