Chapter 1095: Chapter 1095: Fireworks and Firecrackers Prohibited
“Is this an illusion?” A group of people were dumbfounded, staring blankly in the direction Sikong Zhairiyue had left.
Xi Dazhuang was also stunned. He was sure he had locked onto Sikong Zhairiyue’s body just now; the sound couldn’t be wrong. Yet in the blink of an eye, the person turned into clothes while Sikong Zhairiyue appeared over ten ters away.
Everything about this was eerie and incomprehensible.
“Chase!”
After a mont of bewildernt, Xi Dazhuang took off in pursuit.
…
Inside the restaurant.
Ye Mingtian smiled, raising his wrist. On his wrist was a conspicuous white watch, suggesting he had mild OCD.
“Qingxue, it’s almost ti. In less than ten minutes, we’ll be able to enjoy the magnificent fireworks.” Ye Mingtian glanced at the ultra-slim Rado TRUETHINLINE watch on his wrist, smiling as he spoke to Chu Qingxue.
Chu Qingxue smiled shyly, “Really? How exciting!”
Yet Chu Qingxue was also very nervous at this mont, as success or failure hung in the balance. Especially seeing Ye Mingtian being so certain. However, Chu Qingxue did not show any of this on her face.
“Haha…” Ye Mingtian’s smile deepened.
Though the two seed calm on the surface, in reality, they were like chess opponents, with swords drawn and tension high.
…
On the top floor of the distant Chu Corporation building.
“Sikong Zhairiyue is indeed formidable, escaping despite exposing himself so much. But the Chu Corporation’s security was undeniably impressive, almost breaking the undefeated myth of the world’s top thief.” Heavenly Eye observed the scene unfold and shared his insights.
Ye Chenfeng nodded in agreent, “Dazhuang is no slouch. If I trained him deliberately, he’d be no worse than any of the Thirteen Holy Knights.”
Ye Chenfeng had co to understand Xi Dazhuang’s terror while in the military. But in Ye Chenfeng’s view, the “mundane” military life had already worn away so of Xi Dazhuang’s traits.
If these innate qualities were released, Xi Dazhuang would beco incredibly terrifying. He’d be no worse than the Thirteen Holy Knights.
“Divine King, Sikong Zhairiyue’s final escape route matched exactly with the one you predicted earlier,” Heavenly Eye suddenly remarked, looking at the tracker. “I assu you factored in the security team of the Chu Corporation.”
“Yes, that’s right. If Sikong Zhairiyue had been more serious, Dazhuang and his team wouldn’t even have detected him. But by repeatedly adding difficulty for himself, he’s bound to fall into Dazhuang’s hands. Although he seed to escape mysteriously, in reality, it was quite a ss. Moreover, I’m certain Dazhuang’s kick hit him,” Ye Chenfeng stated calmly.
“Divine King, it’s ti for you to act,” Heavenly Eye said.
A cold light flickered in Ye Chenfeng’s eyes as he opened the pre-prepared equipnt and rope lock and launched it suddenly, with one end landing securely on the top floor of the Chu Corporation building dozens of ters away.
“Swoosh!”
Ye Chenfeng instantly slid from one side to the other.
“I’ll be eting Sikong Zhairiyue soon.”
A cruel curve appeared at Ye Chenfeng’s lips as he casually picked up half a brick and walked toward another direction step by step.
“Qingxue, there are five minutes left,” in the restaurant, Ye Mingtian seed to intentionally or unintentionally remind Chu Qingxue.
“Phew!”
Chu Qingxue took a deep breath. Tonight’s affair was essentially a showdown between her and Ye Mingtian. If Sikong Zhairiyue succeeded, half of the Chu Corporation would be lost.
Although Ye Mingtian’s thods weren’t aboveboard, that’s just how comrce works—full of deception.
Even Chu Qingxue had occasionally used such subtle strategies, always in the dark, but Ye Mingtian brought these tactics out into the open, blatantly presenting them to the competitors.
You know it’s happening, but you’re helpless against it.
Arriving at the ventilation outlet on the top floor of the Chu Corporation, Ye Chenfeng sat down beside it, silently lighting a cigarette. On his wrist’s multifunctional watch, a red dot on the black background flashed ever more intensely.
Finally, the flashing red dot ca to a stop, and a head gradually erged from the ventilation outlet.
“Phew, finally got out. Almost fell into the security’s hands; my lifeti reputation would have been ruined.”
It was Sikong Zhairiyue who erged. He chuckled lightly, “Alright, tonight let’s set off a stunning firework show at the Chu Corporation building!”
“Hm?”
But suddenly, Sikong Zhairiyue frowned tightly, his face changed dramatically, cold sweat dripping, and his hair stood on end.
At this mont, he felt as if he were being watched by a venomous snake…
Could it be…
Sikong Zhairiyue was about to grab a brick, when suddenly, soone walked up from behind, raising the half-brick in his hand, striking Sikong Zhairiyue on the back of the head.
“Bang!”
The sound was dull, indicating a strong force and thus greater damage.
“You…”
Sikong Zhairiyue’s vision went black, and his body fell softly.
However, Sikong Zhairiyue didn’t imdiately pass out but was in a daze…
Looking at Sikong Zhairiyue before him, Ye Chenfeng’s smile was profound, “There’s nothing in the world that can’t be solved by a brick; if there is, make it two bricks.”
“Bang!”
Subsequently, Ye Chenfeng stepped forward and struck Sikong Zhairiyue once more on the head with a brick. Sikong Zhairiyue, who was just about to regain so consciousness, fell to the ground with a thud and completely fainted.
…
Inside the restaurant, Ye Mingtian checked his watch and said, “Qingxue, ten minutes are up. It’s ti for the fireworks show.”
“Alright.” Chu Qingxue felt even more nervous. If the fireworks ignited, it ant Sikong Zhairiyue had succeeded.
“Hm?”
But a minute passed, and no fireworks were seen.
This ti, it was Ye Mingtian’s turn to get nervous, though he still appeared extrely calm on the surface.
“Qingxue, there might be a slight delay,” Ye Mingtian smiled slightly.
“Alright, I’ll keep waiting,” Chu Qingxue’s mood improved.
A full five minutes passed, yet still no sign of fireworks.
“Senior Ye, this…”
At this point, Chu Qingxue had already concluded that Sikong Zhairiyue had failed.
“I…”
Facing such a situation, Ye Mingtian didn’t know how to explain.
At this mont, Chu Qingxue’s phone rang. She looked at the ssage and imdiately, a bright smile appeared on her lips.
“Senior Ye, it’s getting late, I should leave. Let’s watch the fireworks next ti; it might be because the city currently bans fireworks,” Chu Qingxue smiled, picked up her bag, and left.
“Pfft!”
Chu Qingxue’s remark, “the city currently bans fireworks,” dealt a ton of damage to Ye Mingtian.
To be honest, this statent hit harder than Sikong Zhairiyue’s failure, leaving Ye Mingtian unsure how to face Chu Qingxue in the future.
