"It can’t be this coincidental, right? We just said they were coming, and here they are?"
Ning Che shrugged, "Maybe it really is just that coincidental. With sothing this good, they must be eager to co over."
In perfect sync, neither of them moved but stood at the door.
Their eyes watched the vehicles until they stopped at the entrance of the administration building.
The car doors opened one by one, and the first person to step out was Chen Zhengnan, who also glanced at Lin Yi.
In the previous short-selling incident, the Chen family secretly sched against Lin Yi but ended up being tricked, which gave them a heavy blow in their power struggle.
This is also why Chen Zhengnan is eager to make a rit as soon as possible.
Besides Chen Zhengnan, seven or eight others also got out of the car. They all looked scholarly, seemingly from the Dragon Eagle Laboratory.
Compared to Chen Zhengnan, the expressions on these people’s faces were far from friendly, as if Lin Yi owed them money.
"These people are really sothing, begging with such righteousness, as if the Central Guards Brigade owes them," Ning Che said with a cold face.
"They might really think they’re better than the Central Guards Brigade, they’re just not that lucky."
"Haha, people like that, in the end, won’t even know how they die."
"That’s their business. We’re just here to watch the show."
Lin Yi and Ning Che stood chatting at the door, not taking Chen Zhengnan and the Dragon Eagle people seriously.
anwhile, Chen Zhengnan led his group over.
"So you two are here as well."
Chen Zhengnan was very shrewd, and upon seeing Lin Yi, he still smiled as if nothing had happened.
Lin Yi smiled and nodded, "Nothing to do, just ca by for a look."
"We heard about what you did on the island, really impressive." Chen Zhengnan patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, "In the whole country, there aren’t many who get promoted faster than you."
Lin Yi tilted his head slightly, looking at Chen Zhengnan’s hand, "It’s alright, it’s all deserved."
Chen Zhengnan laughed heartily, "You’re really not a bit humble, are you?"
"Oh, you guys ran into each other."
Just then, Liu Hong ca out from the building.
Although the Central Guards Brigade’s matters are handled by Liang Xianghe and Liang Ruoxu, they rarely show up, so most of the Central Guards Brigade’s affairs are managed by Liu Hong.
But in terms of rank, Liu Hong is still a level lower than Chen Zhengnan.
Since soone higher up is here now, it’s only natural to co out and greet them.
"All of us here are colleagues. Why did you even co out? So courteous."
"The leaders ca, I certainly have to co and greet them." Liu Hong said with a smile, then shifted his gaze to Lin Yi and Ning Che, "Do you two have anything on your schedule, or would you like to join us for a eting?"
"No need for a eting," Lin Yi said,
"We just brought back important items. The whole world is eager, eyeing our experintal results. We have to be cautious, in case soone is turned against us, we’d suffer losses and joint responsibility."
Everyone present was smart; they all picked up on the undertone of Lin Yi’s words.
Obviously, it was ant for Chen Zhengnan and the others.
"Joint responsibility is minor. If they capture our research personnel, that would be a fate worse than death. We’ve faced such situations multiple tis, we have to be wary," Ning Che said.
This statent left Chen Zhengnan’s team looking changed.
Because they were the Dragon Eagle’s researchers, and once they took over part of the Central Guards Brigade’s tasks, they might face such situations themselves in the future.
This realization sent a chill down their spines.
Especially Ning Che’s ntion of fate worse than death, making their backs shiver.
"It’s not as exaggerated as you make it sound. As long as precautions are taken and one is careful, major issues can be avoided."
"That’s why we can’t attend this eting, we need to deploy tasks quickly," Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Alright, go ahead."
As he left, Lin Yi briefly greeted Chen Zhengnan.
This verbal sparring ca to an end, without giving Chen Zhengnan any advantage.
"Haha... did you see the expressions on those researchers’ faces?"
Back in the car, Ning Che burst into laughter.
"When they got off the car, they were all full of vigor, and when I ntioned danger, their faces turned as green as greens."
"They are not even in the sa league as Dragon Eagle’s combat units. They have no idea what kind of organization special units like ours are, they think it’s stable governnt work through thick and thin." Lin Yi said with a laugh.
"But we can only win verbally, we still have to share the research stuff with them."
"Even if we share, it’ll be irrelevant things; the productive ones will stay with us," Lin Yi said,
"After all, we are in the leading role in this matter. Whatever we give them, they’ll have to accept it. If we don’t really let them understand the situation on the island, they will continue to be a nuisance."
"But I have to admire Chen Zhengnan; you tricked the Chen family, blocked their way up, and now he greets you with a smile; that’s remarkable."
"If he didn’t have those smarts, he wouldn’t have climbed to his current position."
Ning Che chuckled, "With our personalities, it wouldn’t be possible."
"Let’s just live our own lives happily, whatever makes us happy."
"You’re right, I’ll give you a location, drive there."
With that, Ning Che opened the navigation.
"Where’s this? What are you up to?"
"It’s a deserted place, let’s have so fun, I need to cheer up."
"Damn, you’re looking too happy for my liking."
About two hours later, after Ning Che had his fun, he dropped Lin Yi off at Liang Ruoxu’s place.
Due to a few days of leave, a lot of work had piled up, and Liang Ruoxu was unusually busy.
"Did sothing happen with the Central Guards Brigade? My grandfather has been busy all day. I tried to reach him, but he had no ti for ."
"The Dragon Eagle people want a share of the Central Guards Brigade’s duties. The stuff from the Research Institute is handled by the old man, probably occupied with this all day today."
"I thought so. I called him three tis, all he said was he was with Old Master Lu, I guessed it was about the Central Guards Brigade."
"Don’t worry about this part. Focus on work first, you still have to pick up the kids later."
"Got it."
"Is there anything I can help with?"
"They’re all detailed tasks, not sothing you can do. I’ll handle it."
"Okay."
Lin Yi acknowledged, then started playing gas on his phone to pass the ti.
Knock knock knock—
At this mont, the door to Liang Ruoxu’s office was knocked.
"Co in."
Both thought it was a colleague from another departnt, but upon seeing the person, their expressions changed.
"Director Liang, Team Leader Lin, we are from the inspection group. My na is Hou Guangqi, and we’d like to take Team Leader Lin back for an investigation."
