Chapter 1044: Chapter 1088: Mysterious Person
"Ding ding..." A series of tallic clangs rang out as Li Yifei’s usually infallible Flying Needles were unexpectedly repelled by the dark shadow, which hurdled off the edge of the cliff without slowing down.
Li Yifei rushed to the edge of the cliff. Suddenly, two streaks of cold light shot up from below. Li Yifei tilted his head back, avoiding the chilly gleams. He peered down once more but could see nothing in the darkness.
Li Yifei furrowed his brow, filled with shock. The figure he had just seen seed dainty, and there was a faint fragrance lingering in the air—surely, it was a woman. Such a petite figure possessed the strength to block his Flying Needles, a capability Li Yifei could not attribute to any woman he knew.
If the opponent had taken so drugs, that would have been one thing, but if she had not and still possessed such strength, that would be truly terrifying. She would be a formidable adversary; even face-to-face, Li Yifei was not confident in his victory.
This woman had saved Park Sung-ho, so clearly, she must be in on it together with him. If she had joined forces with Park Sung-ho back then, Li Yifei probably wouldn’t have gotten away unscathed. The fact that she didn’t make a move until the end to save Park Sung-ho puzzled Li Yifei.
He turned back to approach where Sun Nenghui had been, but after only a step, Li Yifei paused. In the brief interlude, Sun Nenghui’s body had also vanished.
"Damn!" Li Yifei couldn’t help but curse. Since joining the Flying Hawk Squad, this was the first ti he had been so thwarted—the enemy had managed to remove bodies right under his nose twice now, and he didn’t even know their identity.
Li Yifei was inwardly alard. This organization was terrifyingly powerful. His complacency could be disastrous. There were indeed many powerful enemies within the organization, and he even felt outmatched in strength—but increasing his strength wasn’t a viable option at the mont. Upon leaving the Flying Hawk Squad, Li Yifei had felt he had reached a bottleneck. After returning to the city, over a year had passed without a breakthrough. At this level, advancing further was extrely difficult.
It had only been about twenty minutes at this location, but it had been years since sothing had so perturbed Li Yifei. His phone rang, snapping him out of his deep thoughts.
Seeing the call was from Chu Xiaoyao, Li Yifei quickly answered. An anxious Xiaoyao imdiately asked, "Uncle, how are you?"
"I’m fine, I’ll be heading back soon."
"Is it taken care of?"
"Heh, dealt with. Is there anything your uncle can’t handle?"
Li Yifei maintained a lighthearted tone to ease Chu Xiaoyao’s concerns.
"I knew Uncle would be okay. Hurry ho, I’m all cleaned up waiting for you."
Li Yifei laughed, "Alright, I’ll be right there."
Even though he hadn’t shared the organization’s strength with his family, Li Yifei had started his investigation, sending many to gather information. However, understandably, no useful intelligence ca to light imdiately. Until now, neither officials nor the Underworld had heard of this organization, which attested to its tight operation. Had it been easy to acquire information, they would likely have been exposed long ago.
Li Yifei could only stay alert to any developnts, hoping the organization wouldn’t trouble him further.
Today, Li Yifei had so business at Xu Yingying’s Dreamfly Company. As he entered, he encountered Chen Min, a classmate of Su Yiyi. Dressed in professional attire, Chen Min looked spirited—while not beautiful, her vitality could entice n.
"What a coincidence," Chen Min said, greeting Li Yifei with a smile.
Li Yifei didn’t have any dislike for Chen Min, one of his subordinates, replying with a smile, "You already work here."
"Yes, I’ve been working for over a week. You’re here to see Manager Mi, she’s in her office."
Li Yifei nodded, "Alright, you be busy then."
"Good day, President Li, good day," more employees greeted Li Yifei, whom he acknowledged with smiles as he walked in.
Chen Min watched him go, a peculiar smile crossing her lips. At that mont, several female employees joined Chen Min, one of whom was also a new hire.
"That President Li just now, who is he?" asked the curious newcor.
An experienced employee laughed, "That’s our forr Human Resources Manager. He’s started his own company."
"No wonder he’s familiar with everyone. Wow, having his own company, that’s aweso. If only my boyfriend could do that."
"You might as well save your energy, they are already married."
"Married? No way? They got married so young?"
"Of course, do you know who his wife is?"
"Who?" Chen Min had been listening on the side, growing more and more excited. Could it be that Li Yifei was already married to Michelle and playing coy with a secret marriage? And then Su Yiyi got together with Li Yifei after that? This could be quite the spectacle.
"Hehe, his wife is soone from our company, take a guess." An old employee said with a chuckle.
"Isn’t it Manager Mi?" Chen Min imdiately asked.
The old employee quickly looked around and said, "Don’t talk nonsense, it’s true that President Li used to date Manager Mi, but Manager Mi is definitely not President Li’s wife. Everyone in the company knows this, and no one would speak out of turn about it, otherwise it would look bad for Manager Mi’s reputation."
Chen Min’s eyes widened in shock, "No way?"
"What can’t be? I’m telling you, President Xu is President Li’s wife. If you say President Xu’s husband is soone else’s husband, aren’t you asking for trouble? If President Xu found out, would you still want to work here?"
Chen Min’s mouth could fit an egg, she couldn’t believe her ears. Who on earth was Li Yifei, with a wife like President Xu of the company, and yet involved with Michelle, and also with Su Yiyi, doesn’t it an that Su Yiyi is not even the third person in this affair?
Haha... The thought made Chen Min’s heart suddenly bloom with joy. Su Yiyi had found a wealthy boyfriend, and although she wouldn’t admit it out loud, Chen Min was always full of envy and resentnt. Now it seed that Su Yiyi was rely a minor affair. When their classmates et again and if she let this story out, Chen Min couldn’t imagine how colorful Su Yiyi’s face would be.
And watching others, who obviously didn’t know about Li Yifei’s involvent with Michelle and Su ngxin, made her think she could make good use of this information later on.
Although Chen Min had only been working here for just over a week, she felt the company had considerable potential. However, with so many young people here, competing to rise up wouldn’t be easy. If she didn’t have so special trick up her sleeve, climbing up from an ordinary employee wouldn’t be so simple.
When people start thinking about shortcuts, they often lose the motivation to strive on their own rits, and it seed Chen Min was now doing just that.
In Xu Yingying’s office, Xu Yingying, He Fangqing, and Li Yifei were sitting together, discussing so important company moves. Although these things could also be discussed at ho, since ho was a place to relax, Li Yifei still preferred to talk about these matters during the day when he was more focused.
Xu Yingying and He Fangqing felt the sa way, both preferring to talk about work with Li Yifei here, while at ho, they all wanted to get cozy with Li Yifei.
When it was almost ti for lunch, Li Yifei stopped and said, "My two wives, may I go out to lunch with Snow today?"
Xu Yingying gave Li Yifei a look and said, "It seems like coming here to talk about work was just a pretense, and you actually wanted to have a date with Michelle, right?"
Li Yifei hurriedly said, "Wife, you can’t wrong
like this."
Xu Yingying laughed lightly and said, "Okay, go ahead. Fangqing and I still have things to discuss."
Li Yifei kissed each of them on the face and then left for Michelle’s office. There were people in Michelle’s office, so imdiately she said, "Alright, that’s it for today. You can go back to work now."
The two employees quickly acknowledged, said hello to Li Yifei, and walked out.
Li Yifei wrapped his arms around Michelle and said, "My Little Snow, you’re so busy lately, make sure you rest enough."
Michelle quickly glanced toward the door, saw that it was closed, then smiled radiantly and said, "It’s good to be busy, isn’t it more fulfilling?"
"Then, do you have ti to have lunch with
today?" Li Yifei asked with a smile.
Michelle was delighted and said, "That would be great."
Although Li Yifei and Michelle had confird their relationship recently, they hadn’t had many chances to spend ti together, only twice in total. Michelle, who was in the throes of a new romance, naturally hoped to spend more ti with Li Yifei.
Li Yifei smiled and said, "Then let’s go, we’ll leave right now."
"No, you go first, I’ll co find you in a bit. If people in the company see us leaving together, it’s easy to stir up gossip. If it causes talk, it’d be very embarrassing for President Xu."
Their relationship, naturally, wasn’t ready to be made public yet, and Michelle had her concerns, which were completely natural. This inevitably made Li Yifei feel a twinge of guilt; having multiple won did make certain areas of life less than
