âZhonglian Group!â
âBaolong Group!â
âLingyun Group!â
Hearing the names of these three companies, everyone in the room broke out in cold sweat.
Zhonglian Group was the leader in Huaxiaâs coal industry.
Baolong Group was the leader in Huaxiaâs infrastructure industry.
The Lingyun Group had been established for less than a year, but it had already formed a monopoly in the domestic semiconductor industry.
Most importantly, the backgrounds of each of these three companies were deeper than the one before.
Any one of them was an existence that could crush them!
Xie Donglaiâs legs went limp, and he collapsed to the ground.
Heâ¦he actually offended three big shots in one go?
Miao Cheng and Ma Libinâs faces were also pale and ugly.
Did he just attack the president of Lingyun Group?
âC-calm downâ¦â
Xie Donglai swallowed his saliva and said,â I know that you guys are powerful, but you guys shouldnât bully others in business, right? This is what we do for a living. This isnât anything outrageous, so you guys canât go overboard.â
Qiu Yuluo raised her eyebrows and looked at Xie Donglai. âYouâre still thinking of struggling at a time like this?â
âIâm not struggling. Iâm speaking from the bottom of my heart. An upright person is not afraid of a crooked shadow. If you did nothing wrong, you donât have to be so nervous.â Xie Donglai wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said.
âTo tell you the truth, weâve taken many photos of rich kids having a tryst before. Despite this, they never used their familyâs power to cause trouble. They gave us some money and we dispersed the negative news.â
Xie Donglai gulped and continued,
âHow about this? I donât want 10 million yuan. 2 million yuan should be nothing to you. Although weâre paparazzi, itâs very difficult for us to secretly take photos. You have to give me some money for our hard work.â
âIâve seen people who arenât afraid of death, but Iâve never seen someone who is as brave as you.â Lin Yi smiled. âImpressive.â
âYou⦠donât do anything. Iâm telling you, this is illegal.â Xie Donglai looked at Lin Yi.
âItâs boring to fight. Weâre all civilized people.â
Qiu Yuluo walked up to Xie Donglai, her back facing the others.
âYou still want money, donât you?â
âI just want some money to feed myself. Even paparazzi need to make a living.â
âThen take a look at this. If you still want money after reading it, Iâll give you as much as you want.â
With that, Qiu Yuluo took out her ID and handed it to Xie Donglai.
Because his back was facing the others, no one could read it except for Xie Donglai.
âThis, thisâ¦â
Seeing the red ID in Qiu Yuluoâs hand, Xie Donglai was dumbfounded!
She⦠she was actually a military officer!
And a major at that!
âYou saw it yourself.â Qiu Yuluo took back her ID. âThe two of them have one too. How much money do you want? Think about it. Youâre an adult, so you should know what it means to secretly take photos of us.â
âI, I knowâ¦â
Xie Donglai broke out in a cold sweat, his face ashen.
He clearly recognized the gravity of the situation. If the three of them wanted to pursue the matter, they could send him to prison in minutes.
Not to mention asking them for money, even if he had to pay 10 million yuan to them instead, he would not complain.
Miao Cheng and Ma Libin, who were standing at the door, looked at each other.
They were all puzzled. What had that woman done to scare Xie Donglai so much?
âAs long as you know what to do,â Qiu Yuluo said.
âI want you to deal with this as soon as possible. If I can still see any messages on the Internet tomorrow, you know what the consequences will be.â
âYes, yes, yes. 1 know what to do.â
Qiu Yuluo didnât say anything else. She gave the two of them a look and walked out of Xie Donglaiâs company.
âTsk, tsk, tsk. Our Team Leader Qiu is so domineering that she immediately subdued him,â Ning Che teased.
âThis kind of person needs to be taught a lesson,â Qiu Yuluo said.
âItâs too much to profit from such shady things. Itâs annoying to even think about!â
âAlright, calm down. Everything is settled now. Letâs go back to the base.â
âPresident Lin!â
Just as the three of them were about to get into the car, they were stopped by Miao Cheng and Ma Libin from behind.
âWhy are you looking for me?â
The two of them looked a little embarrassed as they smiled and said,
âPresident Lin, we were rude just now. Please be magnanimous and donât lower yourself to our level.â
âIf I wanted to have a go with you, the two of you would be in the ICU now. Why would I still be standing here letting you talk to me?â
Thinking of what Lin Yi had just done, the two of them trembled in fear and hurriedly apologized.
âYes, yes, yes. President Lin is magnanimous. It would be detrimental to your grace to lower yourself to our level,â Miao Cheng said.
âPresident Lin, we were in the wrong. Tonight, Iâll treat you guys to a meal. I hope the three of you can give me face.â
At this moment, the two of them were filled with regret.
If she had known that Lin Yi had such a powerful identity, they wouldnât have gotten involved in this matter.
It was an honor for Zhao Shiqi to be embroiled in a scandal with such a person!
What a joke!
âWe still have things to do, so letâs forget about the meal.â
With that, Lin Yi got into the car and prepared to return to the Central Guards Brigade.
It was almost 1 p.m. when they arrived at the base.
The second dayâs trial was also over. There was equipment everywhere, and the final cleanup was underway.
âHave you dealt with the negative news?â Liu Hong asked.
âTeam Leader Qiu made a move and scared that person until he peed his pants. It was quite enjoyable to watch.â
âAs long as its all taken care of.â Liu Hong said.
âYour identities are very special and canât be easily exposed. This time, it was just some paparazzi, so it was not a big problem. If you encountered people from overseas, youâd be in danger.â
âUnderstood.â
Liu Hong nodded and casually threw todayâs test results on the desk.
âThis is todayâs results. Take a look. When you have time, Iâll get someone to send a softcopy to your email.â
âRoger that.â
âDonât just pay lip service. 1 want you all to give me feedback on this round of trials,â Liu Hong said. âDonât think that just because youâre a team leader, you can be so aloof. You are all part of the Central Guard Brigade, and you should treat this place as your home.â
The three of them looked at Liu Hong in unison.
It was as ifâ¦
They were looking at a child with a mental disability.
Cough, cough, coughâ¦
Liu Hong cleared his throat a few times, using it to cover up his embarrassment.
âUm, the way 1 phrased it just now may not have been quite right. âDedicated and committedâ is a better term to describe it.â
âThereâs no point asking us about this. You should ask Lin Yi,â Ning Che said.
âWhat do you think?â Liu Hong asked.
âI think the logical thinking assessment is quite interesting, and we should strengthen our testing of this trait,â Lin Yi suggested.
âFurthermore, we can have a simulated acting performance to test their improvisational skills, and then select the best among them. As for the rest, 1 donât think it matters much..â
