The middle-aged man, who was the Chief Executive Officer of Yonghui Financial Group, Yang Renrui, upon hearing this sentence, could only smile helplessly:
"If we continue with our plan, we might forever be enemies with Su Xin, given the superpower he has demonstrated, the threat is truly too great."
"After weighing both sides, I think it's still more beneficial for us to reconcile with Su Xin."
"As for the Bug Plan..."
"In my opinion, as long as we can cooperate with Su Xin, his value is worth thousands upon thousands of superpower users. If we fail to establish cooperation with him, then it won't be too late to continue with the Bug Plan."
The elder in beach shorts pondered for a mont, then nodded and said solemnly:
"Alright, then reconcile with him, all conditions can be negotiated, there's no upper limit on material conditions, even if we have to apologize publicly as Yonghui Financial Group."
"At the sa ti, we need to dig deeper into Su Xin's intelligence, try to find his weakness as much as possible, otherwise, even if cooperation is achieved, we will be very passive. Besides, we must be prepared for the possibility that the other party won't cooperate."
"I will discuss with the other mbers of the board, you proceed in this direction first."
"Okay."
Yang Renrui nodded in agreent.
...
Yonghui Financial Group moved very quickly.
Upon discovering the identity of the black robe, they quickly found out most of his information. During the early morning attack on Su Xin, they arranged a specialized intelligence departnt to receive real-ti data from the Dragon Soldier Squad and analyze it in real-ti.
Before Su Xin arrived at Kangbo Biological Company and made his declaration, several executives urgently convened a eting.
Then it was reported to the chairman, a proposal to seek reconciliation, and after agreeing, personnel were imdiately arranged to et and negotiate with Su Xin.
When Su Xin finished his declaration, the newly appointed president of Kangbo Biological Company's Lening Branch, Lu Yuanchun, arrived downstairs at the company.
He raised both hands high, seeming to signify he was no threat. As he walked toward the high building where Su Xin was, he shouted loudly:
"Mr. Su Xin, I am Lu Yuanchun, the newly appointed president of Kangbo Biological Company. Please give a few minutes. I wish to talk with you."
He had a microphone attached to his mouth, amplifying his voice to be heard clearly even by those in the helicopter.
Su Xin on the rooftop naturally heard him.
He responded casually:
"Co up then."
As for whether the other party heard him or not, he couldn't be bothered, standing proudly on the rooftop.
Soon, Lu Yuanchun took the elevator to the rooftop, quickly walked up behind Su Xin, stopping about five ters away from him.
Though only a few days in office, showing exceptional assertiveness within Kangbo Biological Company, Lu Yuanchun appeared exceptionally humble before Su Xin, slightly bowing behind him, he said respectfully:
"Mr. Su Xin, under orders from higher-ups, I'm here to talk with you, hoping we can clear up our misunderstanding. If convenient, please follow to the office downstairs, I'd like to offer you a pot of fine tea as we sit and chat slowly. Would that be okay?"
Su Xin turned his head, looking at the other party:
"Just say what you want."
Lu Yuanchun glanced at the nearby helicopter, not wishing to represent Yonghui Financial Group in yielding in such a public setting but had no choice as the attitude from above was to reconcile at all costs.
Explicitly stated was 'reconciliation,' not negotiation or alliance.
He also understood, the intention was to keep the stance as low as possible, satisfying the other party's all requirents.
Otherwise, let alone facing failure in reconciliation with potential punishnt, just Su Xin now might pose a mortal risk.
So...
The talk would happen here.
Lu Yuanchun maintained his humble smile, speaking in a slightly softer voice:
"Mr. Su, I know so departnts of a company belonging to the sa group as mine have had so unpleasant experiences with you recently, launching nurous attacks causing inconvenience and loss to you."
"Therefore, I specifically understood the whole story, only to realize it was initially due to a misunderstanding."
"In the 10.20 attack, we suffered significant personnel and asset losses. Many of our company's key personnel perished in the assault, including Mr. Su's..."
Pausing, Lu Yuanchun seed to accidentally touch on Su Xin's painful mory, quickly changing the subject:
"Overall, the company faced severe losses, avenging those who sacrificed during this incident, giving them closure, thus we requested support from above, who dispatched a brother company's combat squad."
"During the subsequent period, the combat squad went about collecting clues, investigating the case, largely confirming the culprit as mbers of the Nirvana Association."
"Coincidentally, Mr. began to appear as the Black Robe in Lening City then, drawing the combat squad's attention as the Nirvana Association housed many superpower users, targets of the combat squad's mission."
"Thus, failing to find Nirvana Association mbers, the squad focused on Mr., initiating investigations, laying ambushes, preparing attacks or captures, misunderstanding Mr. as a Nirvana Association mber rather than harboring genuine hostility."
"Certainly, a mistake is a mistake."
"All subsequent events arose from that misunderstanding, which the combat squad caused."
"Hence, the fault lies with us."
"Mr. Su, the higher-ups wish to express apologies, willing to pay any price to reconcile with you."
Lu Yuanchun spoke earnestly.
The implied reason for this conflict: seeking vengeance for employees, including Su Xin's parents, led the diligent combat squad to attack Su Xin.
The original intent was good.
They rely misjudged Su Xin as the enemy, causing this series of ongoing confrontations.
Their mutual enemy is the Nirvana Association.
No need to continue opposing each other.
Others might feel a reconciliation doesn't seem a poor choice, especially since his parents weren't killed by Yonghui Financial Group but were their key employees, lacking inherent conflict with Yonghui Financial Group.
Also, throughout all these conflicts, Su Xin hasn't suffered any actual loss.
Just the ho.
But for Yonghui Financial Group to declare 'at all costs,' signaling extrely generous benefits, far surpassing the value of Su Xin's ho.
Given such a low stance, one could rely descend from the offered step, take the massive benefits, casually eliminate past small conflicts.
Everyone wins.
However…
"I don't want to reconcile."
Su Xin said calmly.
