Chapter 2563

At this moment, his brow was deeply furrowed, knowing that this person's identity was likely far more terrifying than he had imagined.

Therefore, Wang Hu couldn't help but have his heart, which had just settled, hang in the air again. He had originally concluded that the matter wasn't that big, but now, everything had taken a sharp turn for the worse.

However, as a member of the Wang family, Wang Hu had been trained that no matter what situation occurred, he could not let his mindset fall into chaos.

So the next moment, he instantly made his heart peaceful.

Afterward, Wang Hu said: "Understood, Mr. Wang. I will definitely report to you at any time."

Then, Mr. Wang didn't forget to add: "Remember, as long as he doesn't provoke you, absolutely do not provoke him. Even if he follows you all the way, pretend you don't see him. If he wants to find trouble, do not clash with him; just choose to run away at the first opportunity. I will handle the rest with the higher-ups."

The "higher-ups" Mr. Wang mentioned here naturally did not refer to the authorities, but to Zhang Lin's side.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu felt a mix of laughter and tears, thinking to himself when the Wang family had become so timid. Previously, such a thing would have been completely unimaginable.

As a member of the Wang family, it was absolutely impossible for such a reaction to occur. When facing any matter, the Wang family was always the most unreasonable existence.

Now, they had instead become timid. Of course, the reason Wang Hu thought this way was because he felt that all of this was still under the manipulation of the authorities, or even if not the authorities, it was Zhang Lin.

But this did not include the middle-aged man they saw before them. Mr. Wang only suspected that the other party was Wang Canghai. Since that was the case, he had to make his subordinates absolutely cautious.

The usual arrogant state had led to the loss of lives; the Wang family had already lost too many people. Now that Zhang Lin was willing to give the Wang family a chance, including giving Mr. Wang a chance...

This was a very rare thing. If they continued their previous foolish behavior, then they would clearly be digging their own graves. Under this premise, Mr. Wang would let his subordinates make such a choice.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Hu sighed. He did not say anything to refute Mr. Wang. In normal times, he wouldn't have dared, and in this situation, it was the same. After agreeing, he hung up the phone immediately.

Mr. Wang could naturally tell that although the other party had agreed, through the speed at which the phone was hung up, he could immediately react that the other party was definitely carrying emotions. However, Mr. Wang did not mind this.

He only wondered if his approach this time was indeed too abrupt. Of course, Mr. Wang swore in his heart that he wasn't acting cowardly, but was entirely helping these people avoid potential risks.

If these risks could not be avoided, they would only face an even more critical situation, and by then, they wouldn't even have the chance to beg for mercy.

Having absolutely no way out was the true meaning of despair. Since that was the case, choosing to be cautious had no problem at all.

This was also the reason for Mr. Wang's arrangement. Returning to the team, everyone looked at Wang Hu with anticipation, still the same person who had asked the question earlier.

He couldn't help but step forward and continue to ask: "Boss, what did Mr. Wang say on his end?"

They all knew that Wang Hu had gone down to contact Mr. Wang, hoping to receive a very clear order, but they didn't expect Wang Hu to shake his head and sigh the next moment.

He immediately said: "Mr. Wang gave us only one instruction: let nature take its course."

In fact, he didn't want to talk too much, and the summary of the order was very on point. Yes, just let nature take its course, follow the rhythm of all developments, and continue on. There was no need to think about those messy things; thinking about them would only make one feel even more at a loss.

As everyone looked at each other, they didn't understand what the other party was talking about. Could it be that all their subjective choices had been discarded?

If that were the case, what meaning would the freedom gained have?

In fact, the Wang family members didn't understand what kind of situation they were facing and how rare such an opportunity was; otherwise, they couldn't have used such thinking to consider the upcoming problems.

Even Wang Hu didn't provide correct guidance, but Mr. Wang had no choice. For such a long time, Mr. Wang had already found it very strenuous to coordinate these personnel.

And now that the two small teams of the Wang family had entered the archaeological team, a portion was hidden in the dark, while the other portion might have to secretly infiltrate it.

But all of this was Zhang Lin's arrangement. The Wang family members absolutely could not make any subjective response now. If they wanted to interfere with this matter with their own autonomous thoughts, then the result would be that the Wang family would not only be disbanded, but most of them would be wiped out.

These two were completely different concepts.

What the Wang family initially wanted to do was to survive in this way, because if they didn't do so, Wang Canghai would definitely come knocking.

At that time, everyone would rush forward one after another, all for the sake of things Wang Canghai wanted to do. Mr. Wang didn't want to accept such a result.

He had finally managed to get the Wang family into its current state, so powerful, actually following Zhang Lin's side to see what the other party wanted to do.

For Mr. Wang, once he saw that the other party possessed strength exceeding Wang Canghai's, the Wang family would shrink back. At that time, as long as they didn't interfere with the actions of the second archaeological team, he believed Zhang Lin shouldn't have time to bother with them.

Even if Zhang Lin finished dealing with these and turned his gun toward the Wang family again, Mr. Wang wasn't worried at all. Anyway, since everything was over, Mr. Wang could completely use a soft approach to discuss subsequent issues with the other party.

After all, the Wang family only affected those previous choices, and later on, the Wang family could completely adopt a moderate stance to win Zhang Lin's forgiveness.

But these plans were completely ruined once Wang Canghai interfered. Mr. Wang hadn't thought Wang Canghai's approach would be so extreme.

But now, after reality slapped him hard in the face and then kicked him fiercely, experiencing these things again and again, Mr. Wang didn't want to hold onto those useless fantasies.

In his cognition, these thoughts were already very clear.

That was, he could no longer listen to any of Wang Canghai's instructions; that would only lead the Wang family to doom.

Therefore, Mr. Wang staged a thorough betrayal, taking the Wang family to flee far away from this place. But the subsequent phone call from Wang Canghai reminded Mr. Wang that some things indeed could not be done that way.
