Chapter 1684: Chapter 1679: Yuan Shan’s Burden
“Want to try Chief Yuan’s craftsmanship?”
Praising Wen Li’s calmness in the face of danger, Fu Qian gestured to the empty seat next to him and unhesitatingly nad the tea ceremony project after the leader.
“Sure, thank you.”
With a casual smile, albeit not as uninhibited as Fu Qian, Wen Li made sure Yuan Shan had no objections before taking a seat.
“Did you co to see because you’re in so sort of trouble?”
Chief Yuan, who doesn’t favor subtlety, after watching Fu Qian take an empty cup and personally pour tea for Wen Li, directly shifted his gaze to Wen Li and got straight to the point.
It might be intimidating, but through multiple verifications, the strategist’s words are undoubtedly highly credible.
Even if she doesn’t want to believe it, she had to continue deducing along this line of thought.
“Yes, but it’s hard to describe specifically what it is.”
Although familiar with Yuan Shan’s style, Wen Li’s instinctive glance at Fu Qian after the sowhat jumpy progression made her frown and nod.
“Earlier today, it seems sothing very peculiar affected .”
“This kind of elusive matter shouldn’t disturb you… but I have a strong premonition. If, unfortunately, the feeling is correct, the force behind it might be completely irresistible for , and when it truly erupts, I’m afraid there’s nothing that can be done—”
“You’re absolutely right, and the timing is perfect.”
Carefully indicating Wen Li not to worry, Yuan Shan even admitted she had just returned to her workstation.
“So how did you discover it? Given the vast difference in power levels.”
In response to Wen Li’s rather subjective description, Yuan Shan was still guiding patiently.
“I really couldn’t capture anything, but I’m fairly aware of my own state.”
Encouraged, Wen Li pointed to her head without reservation.
“Today my state has been quite normal, but at so point, so deeper level of emotions beneath the surface of consciousness seed to be disturbed and oppressed…”
“Even my abilities had no resistance to this change; the only thing they did was help recognize the change itself.”
“Of course, it doesn’t feel as obvious now.”
…
Impressive, with daily self-reflection, Miss Wen has learned so corporate culture during this internship.
Drinking it all in one go, self-serve and self-drink.
Fu Qian, with the relaxed deanor unique to a strategist, listened to the exchange while sampling Chief Yuan’s collection, almost missing the chance to fan himself.
He naturally had no doubts about Wen Li’s account.
As for the distance between their seats being less than half a ter now, and still finding no trace, Fu Qian didn’t think the other party’s concealnt level defied reason.
Most likely, a slight observation earlier triggered Wen Li’s overly keen firing action, prompting the opponent to decide on a wait-and-see approach.
With this cautious sentint, Wen Li successfully arrived at the Night Watchn Base.
And realizing she was there too, Wen Li undoubtedly confird her wasted effort had been received.
Breathed a sigh of relief and instantly grasped the subtleties, sharing openly with Yuan Shan.
Even the glance she gave before Yuan Shan suddenly questioned showed considerable wisdom and tact.
The excessively jumpy questions and Yuan Shan’s slightly unusual deanor were enough to indicate that prior exchanges relating to her had likely occurred in the office.
The only one capable of bringing related news was herself.
At this point not looking would only make Yuan Shan suspicious.
As for why she decided to let the Night Watchman take the lead in handling this matter, even directly coming here to await Wen Li, the reason was simple—
Firstly, Wen Li would definitely co.
Suddenly encountering an incomprehensible threat, trying to signal her while directly seeking refuge here at the Night Watchman, was almost the best survival option.
Secondly, for her, this was the safest thod of handling.
Even though personal actions shouldn’t rise to the organizational level, was the person behind this really just Tan Mingxue’s mysterious superior?
Stirring a snake out by beating the grass, by not showing up, Wen Li temporarily wouldn’t be in life-threatening danger.
Thus, directly finding her and tracing back to kill that guy is, of course, an option.
But what if it’s not just him, and the rest react, bringing more intense probing?
Miss Wen’s little arms and legs clearly can’t withstand such turmoil.
Even if we need to trace back to kill them all, first we have to confirm the list, don’t we?
And who else is better suited to do this than Yuan Shan?
Might even help Chief Yuan establish unparalleled rits.
“Do you think this abnormality is due to malevolent influence at a higher tier?”
Yuan Shan, now seriously listening, clearly had entered the zone.
“Yes… and done in an extrely covert manner.”
Taking a deep breath, Wen Li no longer concealed her residual fear.
“If it weren’t for the habit of daily self-check, I might have never been aware of this anomaly.”
…
Is this leaving psychological shadows?
It’s not surprising though, seemingly fated daughter, her actual growth experiences are quite full of untold tribulations.
Wen Li’s cautiousness naturally reminded Fu Qian of Lady Eve.
Still rembers previously in the dream, using that na to wake people up.
“Fang Xun… what do you think?”
While still reminiscing, Chief Yuan has already fully demonstrated the leadership style of not rushing to clear stances, turning to seek counsel.
Although the previous exchange halted because of Wen Li’s arrival, integrating the new information made it easy to deduce the general outline of the event.
Yet the more serious it becos the more careful one must be; if it truly involves the Night Watchman, the severity could be limitless.
Besides, the strategist nearby seems even more inford than those involved.
“I trust Wen Li’s judgnt.”
Helping replenish Yuan Shan’s cup, Fu Qian finally put down the pot.
Yuan Shan didn’t wish for “Night Watchman possibly involved” to be too widely known, naturally, he understood this, willing to slightly cooperate, but that didn’t an being too subtle.
“And considering her description, I sowhat suspect if re demigods can achieve such an extent… If it’s of a higher ranking character, according to Night Watchman records, it should be easy to use elimination thod, right?”
“There is indeed so information, but the opponent always has a purpose for doing so, right?”
Able to sense Fu Qian’s tacit agreent in not deliberating, although Yuan Shan was still reluctant to accept the possibility of internal problems.
“Beat the grass to scare the snake.”
Unfortunately, Fu Qian’s response remained direct.
“I have quite a few enemies; Wen Li likely got dragged into this because of .”
A self-correction within a powerful organization, having the Chief lead such a dangerous move, honesty is the basic courtesy.
