Chapter 1779: Effortless to Obtain

~7 min read 1,322 words

This playful remark made Xie Wanyi curl his lips.

The next instant, he thought of something.

Xie Wanyi did not speak directly, but first complimented Ling Yu: "In the Organization, the volume of missions you have executed is above mine; you are truly knowledgeable and experienced."

Ling Yu knew Xie Wanyi all too well.

He was not happy because of Xie Wanyi's flattery.

Instead, he raised an eyebrow and hummed: "Stop the flattery, just say what you want to ask about."

Having his little scheme seen through, Xie Wanyi did not show any awkward expression.

Instead, he followed the suggestion and went straight to the point: "Have you ever heard of an experiment that can implant a chip into a person's brain?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yu immediately changed his expression: "Why are you asking about this?"

"You know about this matter."

When Xie Wanyi said this, he did not use an interrogative tone.

He was very certain that Ling Yu knew something.

Regarding this, Ling Yu did not deny it either.

He frowned and warned: "I advise you not to be curious; that experiment is very dark, and just knowing a little about it will make anyone feel uncomfortable all over."

Dark, is it...

That is indeed the case.

But Xie Wanyi had no choice but to learn about it.

Who else but him had one in his own body?

He suppressed a self-deprecating smile and then asked: "How do you know about it?"

"I once executed a mission where the target was a down-and-out scientist. When I found him, he was already delirious and thought my appearance meant I was there to snatch his data."

"Later, I handed him a letter. After he read the contents of the letter, he went completely mad. The data he had just been treasuring, he threw into the air and onto the ground, scattering everywhere like snowflakes."

Xie Wanyi clenched his palms involuntarily and pressed: "The data he threw..."

"It was the critical content regarding the Brain Chip."

"Then, where is the data now?"

Ling Yu sighed first.

Then he said with great regret: "Not long after I left, that scientist set fire to his own house, and he didn't make it out. The original data must have been burned to ash."

This result made Xie Wanyi's shoulders slump.

He felt very dejected.

Ling Yu observed his reaction.

Afterwards, he added calmly: "However, I took pictures of that data."

Unexpectedly, there was a turn for the better!

Xie Wanyi raised his eyes and asked hurriedly: "Why did you take pictures of that data?"

"Since it could make him treat it like his life and also make him go mad, it shows the thing is extraordinary. This kind of thing can sell for a good price."

"You are right, there really is someone interested in this thing, and soon, a buyer will contact you!"

Ling Yu looked deeply at Xie Wanyi and then smiled: "You know that person?"

"... Yes."

"Then I must make a good profit!"

"A reasonable price will do; the person who wants to buy the data also wants to do research."

"Do research? Is the person you know reliable? That data is extremely sinister; if handled poorly, it could trigger chaos."

Regarding this, Xie Wanyi gave Ling Yu his word: "You can rest assured about this; the person who gets the data is definitely not a person of low character."

"You trust him that much?"

"Yes, after the research is done, the content will be destroyed."

Ling Yu rubbed his chin with his fingers, his smile playful: "There aren't many people who can make you trust them like this."

"So with me as a guarantor, you can rest easy."

Ling Yu... was not very at ease.

He felt that Xie Wanyi was very off!

But Xie Wanyi did not seem to want to talk deeply.

So Ling Yu did not pursue the matter.

He stretched and said: "Wait for me to go back and look for it; once I find it, I'll send it to you."

"Good."

Xie Wanyi checked the time and then said: "Wait for me a moment, let me tidy up, take you out for a meal, and then you can go about your business."

"Hey, alright, the one paying is the boss."

Ling Yu said lazily, then leaned back on the sofa.

He took out his phone to check what good food was nearby.

Xie Wanyi did not care about what to eat.

At this moment, he was inwardly excited.

He hadn't expected that he would be worrying about where to find the data just before.

And yet, in the blink of an eye, there was news.

It really was effortless to obtain!

Only...

Xie Wanyi had originally intended to meet with Jiang Motian before going to the company.

Now it seems that the meeting time can only be pushed back.

At the same time—

On Jiang Motian's side, she was painting in the Art Studio.

Meanwhile, Wei Yangyang was sitting next to her with snacks, eating while complaining about eccentric clients.

She had originally been slacking off at the company.

But recently, her supervisor suddenly assigned her a lot of work.

They even wanted to groom her to become a manager.

Wei Yangyang was truly miserable.

Facing her good friend, she asked with unwillingness and confusion: "Can't they just let me be a salted fish!?"

Jiang Motian then said: "I suppose your supervisor saw your talent and couldn't bear to waste it, which is why they are grooming you."

Regarding this, Wei Yangyang had a different explanation.

She said: "I feel like it's because my dad sees how excellent you are and wants me to be like you, to have some small achievements in my career, and then..."

It was unclear what Wei Yangyang had thought of, but the expression on her face suddenly became shy.

That smile made Jiang Motian feel it was strange.

She couldn't resist her curiosity and pressed: "And then what?"

"Arranging a blind date for me!"

After Wei Yangyang finished speaking, she pursed her lips, looking like a bashful young girl.

But Jiang Motian couldn't understand it; she tilted her head and asked: "Didn't you dislike blind dates before?"

"That was before; recently, I've been constantly fed dog food by you and Xie Wanyi, which makes me want to have a sweet romance too!"

This was being blamed on her too?

Jiang Motian was speechless.

And on Wei Yangyang's side, there was an important reason to add: "I saw the photo of this blind date partner, he's super handsome!"

That person was truly very handsome.

His face was practically sculpted by 3D modeling!

Beautiful to the point of being unreal!

It was just a pity that Wei Yangyang didn't have the photo of her blind date partner at the moment.

Otherwise, she would definitely take it out for Jiang Motian to admire!

After a moment of silence, Jiang Motian asked a question: "Is this person someone who just returned from abroad?"

"No."

"Has he been in the country the whole time?"

"Mm, yes."

"Since that's the case, why haven't we seen such a handsome person before, or even heard of him?"

This...

Wei Yangyang considered it for a while before barely giving an answer: "Maybe he's relatively low-key, or perhaps we don't run in the same circles."

Jiang Motian felt that didn't seem likely.

She also said: "Show me the information about your blind date partner, I can help you look into it."

"Oh, his name is... oh dear, what was it again?"

Wei Yangyang only remembered that he was handsome; she didn't remember anything else at all.

This made Jiang Motian unable to help but sigh.

And she commented: "You really are a lookist."

Wei Yangyang felt there was nothing wrong with that.

She even retorted: "When looking for a boyfriend, shouldn't you find someone who is pleasing to the eye?"
