Chapter 402: 0401 Besties Part 1 (3rd update)
He ngji felt that Ye Xiong was a bit off today. Before, whenever he saw her, he would habitually tease her a little, but now he was surprisingly serious.
The Sun rising in the west?
“Here’s the list of our company’s core mbers, take a look,” He ngji handed over a piece of paper.
Ye Xiong glanced at it and asked, “Is there a problem?”
“, Thirteen, Vermilion Bird, Angel, An Le, Murong Ruyin, Chen Xiao, plus Phoenix who is on a temporary assignnt—eight people in total. Don’t you see anything inappropriate?” He ngji asked.
“What’s inappropriate?”
...
“Don’t you think, except for Chen Xiao and Thirteen, the remaining six are all won? Isn’t that extrely abnormal for our line of work, which is fraught with danger?”
“If you hadn’t ntioned it, I wouldn’t have noticed. From now on, let’s call the female mbers of our core team the ‘Seven Golden Flowers.'”
“It’s six flowers,” He ngji corrected.
“There’s another comrade who hasn’t arrived yet. Once she does, with her skills and identity, she’ll also have to join the core team.”
He Ji’s face suddenly turned very ugly, as if she was about to explode at any mont.
“Are you planning on doing business, or are you trying to establish a Harem Group?”
“I can responsibly tell you that none of these six won have anything to do with .”
“If I hadn’t reminded you, the An Family Sisters would probably have fallen by now,” He ngji sneered.
“Am I that kind of person?”
He ngji felt that today’s Ye Xiong was really a bit off, way too serious.
“In both physical and physiological terms, it’s undeniable that female comrades are at a disadvantage compared to male comrades. So I suggest you increase recruitnt of male experts.”
“That’s a good suggestion, and I’ll take it. It’s just that male experts are not so easy to recruit these days. Once they reach a certain level of strength, they are mostly snapped up by various forces and not easily persuaded to move.”
“I have information on soone in my hand. This person was once a master of a large Sect. If we can win him over, we can definitely enhance the strength of our company,” He ngji said.
“Let’s put his information aside for now. I don’t have the leisure to deal with it at the mont. We’ll talk about it later.”
Taming such a master was definitely not sothing that could be done in a mont. With the Beast Organization breathing down his neck, and having just had a conflict with Xinyi, he really wasn’t in the mood.
“Let know when you have so ti.”
Seeing Ye Xiong’s listless appearance, He ngji couldn’t help but say, “Boss, as a subordinate, I must remind you that health is the capital of revolution. Don’t think that because you are young, you can squander it at will. You must always maintain a high level of vigilance, you know!”
What did she an by that? Did she think he was drained because of nightly revelries?
“There’s sothing I forgot to tell you.”
As the company’s second-in-command, Ye Xiong felt it was necessary to inform her about what happened last night.
So, he recounted everything that happened the previous night in detail, and then, quite unhappily, he said, “Miss ng Ji, please do not imagine your boss as an animal that thinks with its lower half. I am listless because I’m worn out and emotionally exhausted, not because I spent the night indulging on a woman’s belly. Do you understand?”
“I’m not interested in your private life; it was just a reminder,” He ngji said.
Then, Ye Xiong returned to his office to practice the Nine Acupoint Divine Needles on a human body model, focusing on the lower acupoints.
As he deepened his cultivation, Ye Xiong realized that his progress was becoming more difficult and the challenge greater.
This was normal. If self-teaching was enough, what would be the need for so many teachers?
Ye Xiong thought of seeking advice from Murong Ruyin.
Just as the thought ca to him, he squashed it. Even if progress was slow, he didn’t want to owe her any favors; after all, Murong Ruyin really didn’t have a high standing in his heart.
It seems I can only wait for Duanmu Linglong to co before asking her for advice,
At 5:00 p.m., Ye Xiong drove to Xinyi Group to pick up Yang Xinyi, hoping to explain things to her, but she was already gone from the company. The employees said she hadn’t been at the company all day.
Ye Xiong tried calling her, but couldn’t get through. He tried another number and, surprisingly, it rang through.
As soon as Yang Xinyi answered the call and heard his voice, she imdiately hung up.
It was clear that Yang Xinyi had blocked his number.
That was harsh!
In the evening, when Ye Xiong returned ho, he was faced with the hollow emptiness of the room and suddenly felt a cold loneliness.
He had called Tang Ning in the afternoon. Tang Ning said she would stay at school and not co ho tonight.
He didn’t know whether Yang Xinyi had told her sothing, and he could tell that Tang Ning’s voice was sowhat displeased.
Ye Xiong lay on the sofa, facing the desolate house, and suddenly felt a surge of emptiness, a feeling that oppressed him heavily.
He missed the days when, upon returning from a mission, Yang Xinyi would be waiting for him at ho, excited to see him.
That scene had been his greatest motivation.
Unknowingly, Yang Xinyi had beco the most important part of his life.
Sitting there, Ye Xiong found himself growing more and more irritable.
…
At nine o’clock in the evening, in a small private room of a café,
Xiao Fangfang and Yang Xinyi sat facing each other, neither speaking for a long ti.
The two often had coffee together and had never experienced such awkwardness before.
“Xinyi, I have nothing to do with that bastard,” Xiao Fangfang finally couldn’t hold back and blurted out.
“I know you two are not involved, and I believe you,” Yang Xinyi responded.
“You scared to death!”
Patting her chest, Xiao Fangfang excitedly said, “I thought you would misunderstand . I was really afraid that our sisterhood of so many years would be ruined by that bastard.”
“I trust you; you wouldn’t do anything to betray .”
“Since you trust , why won’t you forgive him?” Xiao Fangfang asked curiously.
“I trust you, but I don’t trust him,” Yang Xinyi said softly.
“Why?”
“Let ask you, if you made a move on him, do you think he could resist?”
“With that guy’s character, it wouldn’t even take seducing him, just a simple coquettish glance, and he’d pounce on like a hungry wolf,” Xiao Fangfang didn’t hesitate to betray Ye Xiong.
“That’s exactly why I’ve decided to leave him; he’s too flirtatious, too unreliable. I thought about it a lot today and feel that we might not be suitable. The man of my dreams only needs to be dedicated and faithful to . I don’t ask for him to be outstanding, but him…” Yang Xinyi couldn’t continue.
“This guy, despite having you, still flirts around with others; I really can’t understand what he’s thinking.”
“He gives no sense of security, so this ti I’ve really decided to leave him.”
“But you’ve been living together for so long, don’t you feel it’s unfair?”
