"I ca today for another matter, regarding the investigation into my uncle’s assassination."
"Is there any progress?" Ye Lu’s eyes lit up.
"Yes, the archives system of the investigative bureau shows signs of intrusion. It seems the other party is now paying attention to this matter. I’ve deliberately let slip that so reliable information has been sent to the bureau’s evidence departnt."
Ye Lu clenched her fists, her eyes flashing fiercely: "They will definitely try to steal it, and we must use this opportunity to figure out who they are."
"I will have the investigation bureau increase its manpower, hoping to catch them in the act of theft."
"However, considering how heavily guarded our family was, and they still managed to assassinate my father without leaving any trace, I fear it won’t be so easy to capture them." Ye Lu’s gaze flickered slightly.
Hua Lunxi smiled enigmatically, "Actually, I would prefer they escape successfully."
"Why?"
"Only if they escape can we trace them back to the mastermind. These assassins have a code; if captured, they would rather commit suicide than reveal any evidence. If we do catch them, we’ll only have caught the small fries, and it’s unlikely they’ll give up the big fish."
Ye Lu’s eyes shone, that’s right indeed.
...
"Miss Yiren, I trust you haven’t forgotten our agreent!" Su Feiman looked at Yiren, his eyes deep and sharp.
"Rest assured, I will win this competition. Once I win, the Hua family will be entirely within my grasp, and Ye Lu will be under my control. Then, I will naturally give you what you want."
Yiren held her head high with confidence. Recently, Ye Lu stood no chance against her. Desperate, she tapped into various connections, signing nurous collaborations, and her performance soared.
After Ye Lu lost the first deal to her, she never recovered. I initially thought this woman had so business acun, but after losing the business to , she didn’t seek out more partnerships. Instead, she focused on internal company affairs.
It seems she’s scared out of her wits and lost her way. With such behavior from this woman, there’s no way her business can grow; how can she compete with ?
Of course, Yiren didn’t slack off these days; she launched other offensives as well, winning over various dia to praise her abilities. She implied to Huffman, the board mbers, and the group’s internal staff that everyone hoped she would win the inheritance as she was the popular choice.
Then she constantly ridiculed Ye Lu’s failures with various sarcasms and suppressions.
Yiren couldn’t help feeling secretly smug; the dia’s narrative was now under her control. Ye Lu, no chance of turning the tables!
Su Feiman smiled: "That’s good to hear; there’s another favor I need from you."
"What is it?"
"Help bring king’s family, especially his father, to North Arica."
Yiren was surprised, puzzled by what her godfather was thinking. But this worked in her favor, letting these people witness Ye Lu’s defeat and her own success firsthand.
After all, her godfather had promised her, in the end, ThirdYoung Master Jun would beco her man. Hmph, she was determined to outshine Ye Lu and stand even higher.
"Alright."
After Yiren left, the godfather called Mason over to inquire about Shadow’s condition.
Mason reported that the treatnt was complete, and the wound was healing.
"Will this affect his ability to go on missions?" The godfather didn’t care about Shadow’s injuries; he was only interested in whether Shadow could undertake missions at this ti.
