Zheng Qian really couldn’t figure out what Xie Qilin had done.
Xie Qilin also didn’t want to talk, and he couldn’t get him to speak.
But what does it matter?
As long as it’s beneficial to Zheng Qian, wanting to keep so secrets and playing smart are harmless.
Even little cats and dogs like to act clever to please their masters.
He believed he could control Xie Qilin well, after all... he could make Xie Qilin’s brain explode at any ti.
Zheng Qian patted Xie Qilin’s face as if petting a dog’s head, smiled and said:
"Alright, if you do well, I’ll give you and the Xie Family so rewards.
Spiritual Energy Revival is happening, the future trend is here, the glory of the Xie Family is just around the corner."
Xie Qilin bowed and clasped his fists:
"Please rest assured, Uncle Zheng. In at most three days, He Jingguo will certainly die, and you’ll certainly sit in the director’s seat."
Zheng Qian nodded with satisfaction and returned ho.
Xie Qilin had good hearing and listened to the warm scenes at Zheng Qian’s ho.
Sons, daughters-in-law, granddaughters, and his old partner were all waiting for him to eat.
After returning ho, Zheng Qian shed the dignity and cunning he had in the Security Administration, completely becoming a kindly old man.
Xie Qilin quietly said:
"Eat more, each al is one less."
Xie Qilin went downstairs, took out a phone, and sent a text ssage:
"Everything is ready."
A reply ca from the other side:
"Ok."
Ghost Qi erged from Xie Qilin’s hand, and he crushed the phone.
...
The next day, South Sea. A warehouse in the suburbs.
It was late at night, there was no one around, only the window of the warehouse had the lights on.
Wei Ming walked towards the warehouse, his face gloomy.
"Help! Help!"
"No, please let go, I’m pregnant, don’t do this to ."
"No, please, I beg you..."
Wei Ming’s face turned even darker, and he angrily pushed open the door.
At this mont, the Gemini brothers, the Yellow-skinned Immortal, were teasing several won.
It seed those won had just gotten off work and were caught here by these villains.
Honey Slaughter Blade was sitting on a chair, smiling.
The Gemini brothers, the Yellow-skinned Immortal, and Honey Slaughter Blade stopped their actions upon seeing Wei Ming, respectfully saying:
"Manager Wei."
Though their tone was respectful, their eyes obviously showed disdain.
Wei Ming said coldly:
"Let them go."
The Yellow-skinned Immortal revealed a mouth of big yellow teeth, with a sinister smile:
"The brothers haven’t had fun for a long ti, and it’s really a pity to let them go.
Why not let Manager Wei have a taste first? Then we can follow suit?"
The way they are now is completely different from the respectful look they had the first ti they t.
Wei Ming glared, lifted his briefcase, and said:
"Don’t make say it a second ti."
These people were becoming harder to manage, and sotis a show of force was necessary for them to follow orders.
Honey Slaughter Blade didn’t care.
The Gemini brothers looked at Wei Ming’s briefcase, showing so fear.
The Yellow-skinned Immortal begrudgingly said:
"Alright, alright, we’ll let them go, okay? We’ll listen to you."
The won escaped the warehouse in panic.
Wei Ming sat on the chair, speaking in a deep voice:
"I’ve been notified from above, I’m about to return to the Imperial Capital."
The few exchanged glances, showing peculiar expressions.
Wei Ming felt sothing was not right.
Shouldn’t these people be happy?
After all, they were counting on him becoming the Senior Administrator to protect them.
Honey Slaughter Blade was sitting on a chair, crossed his legs, fiddling with his freshly done manicure, and said:
"Congratulations, little brother, but unfortunately you can’t return to the Imperial Capital now."
Wei Ming asked in puzzlent:
"What do you an?"
Honey Slaughter Blade glanced at Wei Ming:
"Before you leave South Sea, you need to do sothing."
Wei Ming’s face showed anger:
"Are you ordering ? Don’t forget your place."
Honey Slaughter Blade chuckled lightly, wrapped an arm around Wei Ming’s neck, and caressed Wei Ming’s face:
"Place? We’re on the sa boat, little brother.
We’ve handled so many things for you, how can you not handle one thing for us?"
Wei Ming’s face was gloomy.
Indeed, now they were on the sa boat.
His swift return to the Imperial Capital was entirely due to the help and achievents from Five Black Classes.
Wei Ming sighed:
"Alright, what do you want to do? Just this once."
Honey Slaughter Blade lightly parted her red lips:
"Kill Cao Yi."
Wei Ming’s eyes widened in shock:
"What?!"
Honey Slaughter Blade chuckled:
"Don’t be so anxious. Killing him is also for your own good.
You probably don’t know, right? He’s already collecting evidence of your collaboration with us.
If he doesn’t die, we’ll all be finished.
If you are charged with colluding with fugitives, we also gain one more cri of enchanting a Senior Administrator."
Wei Ming’s face turned pale.
Cold sweat soaked his back.
He was being watched by Cao Yi?
Damn, how did Cao Yi find out?!
Fear, panic, all surged up.
Wei Ming’s eyes narrowed dangerously, his hand on the briefcase.
Or maybe, draw out the Demon Sword and kill them to silence them?
If these people die, who would know about my cooperation with the Five Black Classes?
The Honey Slaughter Blade glanced at the suitcase, smiling:
"Really, you want to kill us to silence us?
Have you forgotten our chief leader?
As long as we die here, tomorrow the Security Administration will receive the evidence submitted by our leader.
You’re dood too!"
Wei Ming collapsed into the chair like a deflated balloon.
...
anwhile, South Sea, a certain dessert shop.
Cao Yi and Wei Na sat at a small table, drinking small sweet water and eating small cake.
Wei Na was troubled:
"Ming Ming, could he really have done sothing wrong?"
Cao Yi knew Wei Na was not easily fooled, so he spoke the truth:
"Wei Ming has achieved too much recently.
I’ll say sothing you might not want to hear.
Wei Ming’s ability is average, it’s quite unusual for him to suddenly have so many achievents.
If it’s helping Wei Ming achieve so accomplishnts, the Security Administration might turn a blind eye.
But if Wei Ming is cooperating with others, it’s quite dangerous.
I think Elder He has already noticed it."
Wei Na grabbed Cao Yi’s hand, pleading:
"Is there really no way to save him? Can you save him?"
Cao Yi said:
"I have already collected evidence of his cooperation with the Five Black Classes.
Tonight I’ll take his cri evidence to the Imperial Capital, and submit it to the Security Administration."
Due to the Blood Moon, there are quite a few Extraordinaries in the Imperial Capital.
The Security Administration has stipulated in the past two months that Senior Administrators have to take turns going to the Imperial Capital to oversee.
Of course, Xie Qilin doesn’t count, as he has heavy capture tasks every day.
Wei Na looked at Cao Yi in disbelief:
"You..."
Cao Yi sighed:
"This is the only way to save him.
We can’t let him sink deeper; if he continues like this, he will be truly dood.
Don’t worry, with on Wei Ming’s side, Elder He can’t do anything to Wei Ming.
At most, they’ll confiscate the Demon Sword and expel him from the Security Administration.
No problem, I will keep Wei Ming in the South Sea.
As long as I am here, Wei Ming will not suffer grievances in the South Sea.
I can protect him."
Wei Na withdrew her hand, tears falling:
"Won’t his future be ruined then?"
Cao Yi laughed and said:
"What is future? What’s the use of fa and fortune? Safety and peace are the truth."
Wei Na shook her head:
"People like you with power and influence would never understand.
You don’t know what kind of life Ming Ming and I used to have.
For us, the future is the most important, nothing else."
Cao Yi wiped Wei Na’s tears and said calmly:
"I am willing to hear about your past."
Wei Na showed a look of reminiscence, murmuring:
"Our dad divorced very early, and we were assigned to my dad.
Back then Ming Ming was still young and knew nothing.
My dad and stepmom soon had a younger brother.
One day, they said they would take the whole family to the north for the New Year to play in the snow.
Ming Ming and I were so excited that we couldn’t sleep for several nights.
We hid under the quilt discussing plans to play in the snow in the north.
Do you know, we secretly packed our luggage in the middle of the night, because we were embarrassed, afraid they’d know how happy we were.
We packed lots of things, just waiting for the New Year.
Then on New Year’s day, they left, went to the north to play, but didn’t take Ming Ming and .
Ming Ming cried for a whole day, and I cried too.
Ming Ming saw cry and comforted , saying that when he grew up and had money, he would take to see snow in the north every year.
Since then, I was determined to ensure Ming Ming did well, and definitely wouldn’t suffer grievances again."
Cao Yi asked:
"Is this why you married Liu Xian?"
He hadn’t finished, wanting to ask if that’s why she was willing to be his mistress?
Wei Na nodded.
Cao Yi was silent for a while and said:
"Actually our experiences are sowhat similar.
When I was young my mom ran away with a big boss.
My dad raised .
He was always bullied by local thugs.
I pursued power, not for personal enjoynt, but because I couldn’t stand people’s arrogance, wanting to level things out."
Ming Ming was drinking a beverage, but it was as if they drank strong liquor, two miserable souls sharing their woes.
Cao Yi saw Wei Na still crying, saying seriously:
"Don’t worry, I’ll protect Wei Ming, and every New Year I’ll take you both to see snow, I’ll protect you."
At this mont, the phone rang.
Cao Yi received a text ssage.
Cao Yi stood up and said:
"Wei Ming said he has sothing important to discuss with , I’ll take you ho,"
Wei Na, upon hearing ntion of Wei Ming, hurriedly said:
"You don’t need to take ho, your matters are more important."
Cao Yi nodded and walked out the door.
