Chapter 1834: We Are All Chess Pieces in His Hands

Xiao Ding listened carefully from beginning to end.

Then, he wore an expression of sudden realization and promised solemnly: "I know what to do!"

"This is your last chance. If you succeed, the past will be forgiven, but if you fail... just go jump into the sea."

Ping Ge's threat was chilling.

Xiao Ding first subconsciously lowered his head, avoiding Ping Ge's gaze.

However, the next second...

He found his confidence!

To tell the truth, he wasn't very good at managing a company.

But stabbing people in the back... he was far too good at that!

In order to let Ping Ge see his sincerity, the next day, Xiao Ding released a statement.

In this statement, Xiao Ding directly pushed his own mistakes onto Xie Wanyi.

Because Xie Wanyi's resignation procedures had not been handled properly, he was the one who was the actual person in charge of the company.

Therefore, all sorts of troubles also came looking for Xie Wanyi one after another.

Xie Wanyi had not prepared in advance, and he appeared slightly disheveled while dealing with them.

And a pair of eyes hidden in the shadows watched this dishevelment of his clearly...

When Xie Wanyi was blocked by a debt-collecting company yet again, someone stood in front of him like a hero.

This person even shouted at the other party: "If there's a problem, it should be solved through legal channels; private intimidation is useless!"

"Do you think we want to make such a scene? It's because this guy refuses to take responsibility!"

Xie Wanyi felt the other party had found the wrong person, so he said patiently: "Although I am the nominal person in charge of the company, I left the company a long time ago."

"I don't care about that. The law says you should be responsible, so you have to be responsible!"

"Sigh, how unreasonable!"

"I am very reasonable; I am talking about legal principles!"

The other party's

stubbornness made exhaustion appear on Xie Wanyi's face.

He shook his head and then said: "Arguing like this won't solve anything. Since you want to talk about legal principles, then let's follow the legal process."

"Then when will I get the compensation? You'll have to pay sooner or later anyway, so why not give it to me now? It just so happens the company can use it for turnover!"

"No."

"You... fine, you won't agree, right? Then I'll come find you every single day!"

The other party dropped a harsh threat and turned to leave.

And Xie Wanyi cast his gaze onto Ping Ge.

The person who had just "spoken out for justice" was none other than Ping Ge.

Xie Wanyi had been waiting for him for several days.

Now, he had finally waited for him!

Xie Wanyi curled his lips and said with a half-smile: "Is Ping Ge here to catch up on old times with me?"

"That's right, and by the way, to discuss with you whether the Li Family can accept a criminal as a son-in-law!"

With no outsiders around, when Ping Ge looked at Xie Wanyi, he made no effort to hide the annoyance in his eyes.

Coincidentally, Xie Wanyi also found Ping Ge very annoying.

This could be seen from the fact that Xie Wanyi was looking down his nose at Ping Ge.

He even retorted: "How are you so sure that I have no way to clear my name?"

"Because..." Ping Ge opened his mouth to speak.

But at the critical moment, he stopped and scolded viciously: "Don't try to fish for information from me."

Xie Wanyi asked back with an innocent look: "Since we are catching up on old times, we have to chat. How is this fishing for information?"

"Whether it counts or not, you know in your own heart! As for me, I can't be bothered to waste words with you. You just need to obediently take orders from the old Hall Master, and the old Hall Master promises he will help you smooth everything over!"

When Ping Ge said this, he had the air of someone bestowing a favor.

It was as if Xie Wanyi was getting a huge bargain.

But Xie Wanyi really didn't

care for it!

He even said: "If you like being a dog, then go ahead; I can't do it."

A sentence full of mockery made Ping Ge's expression change immediately.

But before he could get angry, Xie Wanyi asked another soul-searching question: "If I really went back, would there still be a place for you by Li Shu's side?"

For a moment, Ping Ge felt panicked inside.

Deep down, he also vaguely knew the answer.

But he wouldn't admit it!

Ping Ge roared at Xie Wanyi: "Who do you think you are? You are just a chess piece in the old Hall Master's hand, to be discarded once used!"

"Aren't you a chess piece too?"

"Of course not, I am loyal to the old Hall Master!"

These words made Xie Wanyi laugh.

Afterwards, he recalled with a melancholy look: "I was once loyal to him too, but what was the result? He had been calculating how to use me since I was a child."

Having said this, Xie Wanyi looked at Ping Ge and issued another challenge: "He treated a child like that, so why would he look at you any differently?!"

Xie Wanyi's questioning became increasingly sharp.

Ping Ge had no idea how to respond.

He could only rely on instinct, weakly denying: "Wrong, I am not the same as you!"

"You are wrong. In front of Li Shu, whether it is you, me, or the West Hall Master, we are all the same!"

"I said, it's different!!!"

Ping Ge roared very loudly.

But Xie Wanyi only sensed his lack of confidence.

Xie Wanyi even handed the initiative of the conversation over to Ping Ge: "Then you tell me, exactly where is it different."

Ping Ge thought for a moment, then opened his mouth to say: "The Old Hall Master's secret missions are only handed to me to execute, which shows he trusts me!"

"The secret missions I have taken on in the past are no fewer than yours, so this counts for"

nothing.

"Yours were merely to earn money for the Organization and build a reputation; someone else could have done them too!"

"But Li Shu values me highly; whenever there are good things, he remembers me. Do I need to remind you what Li Shu has given me?"

Xie Wanyi did not even need to say the answer to this question.

Because Ping Ge knew it all...

Having followed by Li Shu's side, he was all too clear about how different Li Shu treated Xie Wanyi.

Such a difference was like countless ants, gnawing at Ping Ge's heart day and night...

At this moment, Ping Ge felt the taste of ants gnawing at his heart once again!

He still shouted forcefully: "That is merely a tactic to win people over! If he didn't make you loyal to the death, how could you obediently stay behind and wait to be sacrificed!"

Speaking of this, Ping Ge seemed to have found a sense of conviction.

This gave him full confidence: "The Old Hall Master treats you so well, so even if you sacrifice your life, it is only right!"

Xie Wanyi, however, did not buy this at all.

He sneered: "No wonder they say a dog is just a dog; give it a few bones, and it will even throw away its own lowly life."

"Bastard..."

How could Ping Ge endure such mockery?

He swung his fist and struck out!

Xie Wanyi nimbly dodged it and took the opportunity to ask a question: "Since you are so loyal to Li Shu, why don't you offer yourself up voluntarily?"

While dodging Ping Ge's fist once again, Xie Wanyi answered his own question: "I know, you don't have that qualification; you are only fit to mechanically complete missions, just like a robot!"

"Shut up!"

"Embarrassed and angry because I hit a nerve? Admit it, you aren't that important in Li Shu's heart!"

Ping Ge had already been provoked by Xie Wanyi's remarks to the point of losing his reason.

Yet, he could not even land a hit on Xie Wanyi!

In the end, he was exhausted to the point of

panting for breath.

His face had also turned a purplish-red from anger.
