“Hey, can I not worry? Although our servers withstand countless attacks daily, this is the first time we’ve almost been breached, and we can’t even trace the person responsible!”
“Boss, the pressure we’re under every day is already immense. What if, and I mean what if, it’s the people from Independent State behind this? Then… aren’t we doomed?”
Yan Qing really couldn’t understand how Wen Xin could be so nonchalant when facing such a situation. He remembered the last person who acted this way had been recruited by Wen Xin into the Di Ting Organization. Now, she showed no intention of taking action—why?
“Boss…”
“Shh…” As Yan Qing lamented, Wen Xin made a silencing gesture, signaling him not to discuss the matter further.
“I’ll handle this issue. Now, tell me, what were you doing when I called you? Why couldn’t I reach you guys?”
Wen Xin probably guessed who was on the other end, so she was curious about what Yan Qing had been up to that morning and why he hadn’t answered the phone.
Wen Xin’s question made the already security-concerned Yan Qing frown deeper, and he sighed helplessly as he looked at her.
“It was Siam. When Siam heard about your engagement, she made a fuss about returning to the country. She said missing your wedding would be the biggest regret of her life, so I went to calm her down at the hospital.”
When Yan Qing spoke of Chu Yunxuan, his expression showed sheer helplessness, and he hardly knew how to describe Chu Yunxuan’s frivolous behavior.
“Didn’t we agree not to let her know about my wedding?”
Upon hearing Yan Qing’s explanation, Wen Xin, who had been typing code, paused and turned around, looking sympathetically at him.
“I kept it tightly under wraps here, but Nan Xu’s return to the country got out, and she asked Nan Xu why she was back. That’s how your engagement news leaked, so she found out.”
Yan Qing’s tone was filled with helplessness; in Di Ting, the person he feared most was Chu Yunxuan. It was only Wen Xin who could really handle her intractable nature.
“I’ll call her later. I’ll make it clear to her and tell her to heal properly. The batch of pills I sent should arrive soon. Remind the caregiver to make sure she takes her medication correctly and doesn’t mess around.”
Speaking of Chu Yunxuan, Wen Xin’s entire demeanor softened. In her heart, she always felt it was her fault that Chu Yunxuan was so grievously injured; she only hoped Chu Yunxuan could recover well without any regrets.
Yan Qing listened to Wen Xin’s instructions, nodding seriously. It was then that he remembered his call wasn’t just to inquire about the server attacks but also to find out why Wen Xin had called him.
“Boss, was there something you needed when you called me? I’ve already returned the order from Chou League.”
When Yan Qing saw the order from Chou League to investigate Mu Chengxi, he felt something was off. Knowing the relationship between Wen Xin and Chou League, he always handled their matters as a priority.
But the order was too peculiar, and he didn’t dare accept it. Matters concerning his boss he wouldn’t disclose, and matters about his boss’s man, even less so.
“Yeah, I guessed you’d return the order. What I want to discuss is, could you investigate my foster father, Mr. Jiang’s life history and his influence in Beijing? I think he’s more complicated than I had thought.”
Wen Xin’s expression grew serious as she spoke. If it weren’t for the host of things she had to deal with lately, she might have conducted the investigation herself, but given the special circumstances now, she urgently needed to know about Mr. Jiang and had to entrust it to Yan Qing.
Yan Qing didn’t expect Wen Xin would ask him to investigate these matters. He was somewhat disbelieving, wanting to confirm he hadn’t misunderstood.
“Boss, you mean you want me to investigate your foster father?”
“Yes, he’s Jiang Yi. When my parents were alive, he was a close friend of theirs. If I’m not guessing wrong, he might also be from IndependentState and might have left Independent State with my parents.”
“All that’s different is, while my parents chose to settle in Beijing, he chose to develop in W Bay. Considering this, it’s quite normal for him to be involved with Shadow Alliance.”
Listening to Wen Xin, Yan Qing was completely shocked. He found it incredibly unbelievable—the former leader of Chou League connected with Shadow Alliance, what a convoluted turn of events!
Remembering that Wen Xin had joined Chou League with the goal of destroying Shadow Alliance, the complexity of the relationships was too much; he couldn’t comprehend them at all.
“Boss, if… I mean, if the investigation reveals that your foster father indeed has ties with Shadow Alliance, what will you do?”
Yan Qing didn’t know that the forces of the Old Fox were under Shadow Alliance, and he didn’t realize Wen Xin could now address the matter of Shadow Alliance with a normal mindset. He truly wondered if Wen Xin would fall out with her foster father over this connection to Shadow Alliance.
Seeing Yan Qing’s anxious demeanor, Wen Xin smiled faintly, leaned back into her chair with a lazy posture that made her seem quite formidable.
“If I can accept that Shadow Alliance is the Old Fox’s doing, what else can’t I accept? I’ve confirmed that the Old Fox orchestrated the hit on my parents; I’ve pinpointed my enemy. Nothing else is that important anymore.”
Wen Xin’s words shocked Yan Qing again. He felt confused and could hardly believe that Wen Xin could make such a statement so calmly.
“Boss, are you sure there’s no misunderstanding here?” Yan Qing still couldn’t believe the reality was so melodramatic, and it was hard to accept.
“I wish there were some misunderstanding, but the facts are what they are. Just look into it for me, and try to be as discreet as possible.”
“And, I won’t be able to invite you to my engagement. Once my matters are resolved, I’ll make sure you’re a guest of honor at my wedding.”
They were all Wen Xin’s brothers in arms, and she never considered them outsiders. It was a regret that they couldn’t be there for such an important moment, but thankfully, there was still a chance to make it up.
“Then we’ll wait for you to settle your affairs. Get married soon so we have a chance to enjoy a feast!”
Yan Qing half-joked as he spoke, fully understanding Wen Xin’s current predicament. As Wen Xin’s last resort, he knew exactly what to do to be most helpful to her.
