Chapter 1660: A Bright Future
As Jiang Baobao's fingers tapped continuously on the keyboard, her restless mood gradually became steady.
She had also truly found some clues.
Once Jiang Baobao stopped her movements, she leaned back and let out a long breath.
Then she muttered: "I was wondering why the technique looked so familiar; it turns out he is a person from Wuyou Hall."
Wuyou Hall!?
Hearing these three words, Li Xingyan's expression turned cold immediately.
In his eyes, this was an unscrupulous and despicable Organization.
How many companies and talents had had their bright futures ruined because of this troublemaker.
Although Li Xingyan had never had direct contact with this Organization, he still harbored the intention to eliminate this tumor.
It was just that he hadn't expected...
That Xie Wanyi looked decent enough, yet he was actually working for Wuyou Hall.
Now, Li Xingyan's impression of him was even worse!
Liu Xin'ai knew nothing about this Organization, so out of curiosity, she asked about it.
Jiang Baobao explained concisely: "As long as you want, you can spend money to buy information from them."
This explanation was simple and easy to understand.
Liu Xin'ai understood immediately.
Immediately after, she also understood why that child had suffered such a serious injury.
But after knowing this, the sense of worry in her heart became even greater.
Jiang Baobao recalled the information related to this Organization and then said:
"Among the younger generation of Wuyou Hall, there are only two top Task Hunters, Nether and White Crane. These two have a terrifying number of completed tasks, and Xie Wanyi should be one of them."
"How can you be sure that Xie Wanyi is one of the top ones?"
Jiang Baobao did not answer directly, but instead said to Li Xingyan: "Let's go to the company and see first."
The company...
In an instant, Li Xingyan thought of something!
And what he thought of made his expression change: "Damn it, Xie Wanyi applied to be a Security Guard!"
The job of a Security Guard looks inconspicuous.
But if it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives... then there is a lot that can be done!!
Li Xingyan hurried to the side to call the company.
Liu Xin'ai asked curiously: "How are you so knowledgeable about this Organization?"
"When I had some free time, I got in touch with some friends from the past, and they mentioned this Organization while we were chatting."
As the words fell, Jiang Baobao let out a long breath.
She added: "But their days are not easy either; there is intense internal strife. Perhaps they don't even need others to take action, and they will collapse on their own."
"If they collapse, that is just self-destruction. However... I see that Xingyan is a bit irritable."
At this moment, Li Xingyan was indeed very irritable.
Since he took over the company, nothing had ever exceeded his control.
Now... the rules had been broken!
That Xie Wanyi had become a stain on his life!!
The more Li Xingyan thought about it, the angrier he got; he even wanted to lift his foot and kick the table!
Fortunately, at this moment, Jiang Baobao patted his shoulder lightly.
Li Xingyan managed to control his anger, then lowered his eyes, his voice stiff: "Ten minutes of surveillance footage has gone missing!"
Jiang Baobao knew what this meant, but she didn't say a single word of blame.
She reached out to hug Li Xingyan's shoulder, patted his overly stiff back, and then said:
"You don't need to take it to heart. This is your first time dealing with such an Organization; it is inevitable to have some oversights. Just make up for it later."
"In terms of work, it can be made up for, but Tiantian treated him as a friend, yet he... used Tiantian!"
Li Xingyan felt it was unfair for Jiang Motian.
How could Jiang Baobao not feel the same?
But she could not add fuel to the fire, so she had to say: "Just take it as a lesson. Now, you go to the company and take a look first."
"Understood."
Li Xingyan left with a gloomy expression.
Liu Xin'ai sighed: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen on your birthday."
"I don't have those taboos; I just hope Tiantian... can forget about this as soon as possible."
"She will. The two young people haven't gotten any closer yet; as time passes, it will naturally fade."
Liu Xin'ai's tone paused for a moment, then she asked, "What about you? Are you going to let Tiantian keep misunderstanding?"
Jiang Baobao knew what Liu Xin'ai was referring to.
She did not answer, but instead asked back: "In your opinion, can Xie Wanyi be considered a good person?"
"Of course not."
"Then I can only keep it from Tiantian. Having resentment in her heart is better than endless expectations."
Liu Xin'ai could fully empathize with Jiang Baobao's feelings.
She did not voice any opposition.
She only sighed lightly, hoping that Jiang Motian's life could return to peace as soon as possible, just as they expected.
On the other side—
Under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Xie Wanyi walked out with hurried steps.
Jiang Motian called out his name from behind.
But Xie Wanyi did not stop his pace.
In the end, he drove away without the slightest hesitation.
As he drove, his hands gripped the steering wheel tightly.
He did not dare at all to look in the rearview mirror at the figure standing at the gate of the Li Family.
He was terrified that if his heart softened, he would run back to find her and explain...
But what was he to explain?
His identity could not be faked.
He did indeed have ulterior motives regarding the Li Family.
Even when he first approached Jiang Motian, he had harbored deliberate intentions...
Xie Wanyi smiled at himself in self-mockery.
He thought that they were people who belonged to different worlds to begin with.
Now, everyone was returning to their proper places.
This was for the best...
Xie Wanyi drove back to the small courtyard in a daze.
When he got out of the car, he only then noticed the small cake Jiang Motian had given him on the back seat.
After a moment of thought, Xie Wanyi took the cake and got out of the car.
At this moment, Ling Yu was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, anxious.
Seeing Xie Wanyi return, he immediately crowded over and questioned: "Do you know what you are about to face!?"
Xie Wanyi had been wearing something that looked like a Bluetooth headset.
But it was not just a Bluetooth headset; Ling Yu could understand every move Xie Wanyi made through that thing.
Therefore, Ling Yu already knew everything that had happened at the Li Family!
Facing Ling Yu's questioning, Xie Wanyi did not say a word.
He placed the small cake on the table, opened it, and ate it quietly.
Seeing this, Ling Yu was puzzled and anxious: "No, you still have the heart to eat!?"
"Why shouldn't I eat?"
"You have, nine times out of ten, exposed yourself in front of the Li Family!"
"It doesn't matter if I'm exposed; we are leaving immediately anyway."
Ling Yu was stunned for a moment and pressed: "Leave? You aren't going to continue to complete the mission?"
"I'm not doing it; the mission has failed."
Xie Wanyi made the decision lightly.
Yet his decision made Ling Yu's eyes widen.
He said with a look of incomprehension: "How is it a failure? We can still continue; clearly, there are so many methods we haven't used yet!"
"The Li Family is not that easy to deal with; Mrs. Li alone is a ruthless character. To steal information from under their noses, even if we could succeed, our losses would be too great."
Xie Wanyi did not make this decision on impulse.
He had also considered it deeply.
But clearly, Ling Yu could not accept it: "Then what about our undefeated record!?"
"That so-called undefeated record is just a hollow name; you aren't a child anymore, don't fuss over childish things."
"No, that is not just a hollow name! That old thing in the West Hall is just waiting for us to fail so he has an excuse to make trouble!"
