Chapter 327: Fight Poison with Poison, An Ominous Visitor
(Another Hall Master nad [dongmin806] has joined the Mixed family, thank you very much! Mixed has also risen to 65th on the reward leaderboard, thanks to all the brothers who rewarded us.)
Not only was he sent to Beihai Country, but he was also arranged to travel with Wen Qianyi! Li Yan looked at Yurong oddly.
"What’s up? What are you looking at?" Yurong glanced at him.
"Are you still my wife? Why do you keep arranging for to work with beautiful won? Aren’t you afraid I can’t resist the temptation?" Li Yan complained.
Hearing this, Yurong smirked slightly, "If I didn’t arrange for you to work with beautiful won, could you resist the temptation?"
"..."
"This is just a normal work arrangent. You alone can’t complete it; Wen Qianyi can assist you in your work. This is your only chance to achieve great things at work; I hope you can seize it." After speaking, Yurong also waved him off like she did with Ke Yunyun, indicating for him to leave.
Yet Li Yan lingered, "After people leave, the tea cools. I’ll finish this cup of tea before going. Haha, judging by your assistant’s expression, it seems I don’t qualify to enjoy this tea. I can’t waste this chance since there might not be a next ti."
Yurong was speechless; she regretted letting him drink tea. When he ca in earlier, she was busy and inadvertently instructed Ke Yunyun to make him a cup of green tea, following the habit at ho. She didn’t expect him to leisurely enjoy his tea.
She avoided looking at him and focused on her work. But it wasn’t a cup of cold pure water; the boiling hot tea wouldn’t cool quickly. Li Yan held the teacup, blowing on it, sipping loudly, and making sounds as he gulped it down. It was annoying!
"Hey! Can you be more civilized? Drinking loudly in front of others is very impolite!"
Hearing Yurong’s protest, Li Yan smiled and put down the tea, sighing, "I saw you were trying to rush , so I hurried to drink your tea to avoid waste. Such hot tea, if I didn’t drink it this way, gulping it would scald my throat. Besides, you’re not exactly ’others.’ How about I wait for it to cool a bit before drinking..."
After saying that, he just sat there watching her work. He had often seen Yurong working seriously in the ho office, but rarely at the company, let alone watching her closely the entire ti like this.
People can sense being watched, even from behind, not to ntion when knowing soone is watching from the front.
Yurong felt a bit helpless; though she had ntioned "rushing," he wasn’t just any subordinate she could actually chase away, right? Now it’s a joke, or he’d really think she was rushing him. But being watched like this, she couldn’t concentrate on her work, feeling monitored.
After a while, looking up and seeing his interested gaze, she beca slightly annoyed, frowned, and sternly said, "Haven’t you seen enough? If you keep disturbing my work, I’ll... I’ll throw you out of here!"
Seeing Yurong get angry, Li Yan couldn’t help but chuckle, "Co on, I’m not making any noise now. I haven’t touched you or disturbed you, so how am I interfering?"
Seeing him with such logic, Yurong wanted to assert her status as President to chase him away but gave up, instead softly begging, "Consider the impression! Regardless of who it is, they co here to discuss business and leave right after. If you linger here, they’ll start to suspect..."
Li Yan was just seizing the opportunity to get closer to her; he didn’t an to make things difficult. Seeing her say this, he thought of how suspicious Ke Yunyun had looked earlier and said nothing more, nodding, picked up his teacup, and quickly finished the tea.
"I’m leaving."
Watching Li Yan leave, Yurong still couldn’t calm down to work, feeling sowhat annoyed and restless, wondering if he thought she was being excessive and worrying whether he might truly succumb to temptation in Beihai Country...
In fact, arranging Wen Qianyi to accompany was also her plan to fight poison with poison, besides the proper reasons like having had t Shinohara Mirai together initially, interacted with the relevant materials, being capable, and helping Li Yan.
That’s right, fight poison with poison! Beauty is also a poison...
Shinohara Mirai and the other Matsushima Kui are fashionable young girls full of exotic allure. It’s not false to say that n are always thinking about Beihai Country’s girls. Although she didn’t believe Shinohara Mirai would fall for Li Yan, with her philandering husband, she didn’t have much confidence either.
Likewise, although Li Yan hasn’t admitted it, she could sense that Wen Qianyi still holds so place in his heart.
...
After Li Yan left, he imdiately went to look for Wen Qianyi, but she wasn’t in the office. He could only chat with Huang Ying and other colleagues for a while before returning to the planning departnt.
When getting off work, Li Yan went to the front desk downstairs and greeted Chen Xiaoen. The other receptionists, who kept their distance when he got involved in selling company information, regained their enthusiasm and greeted him after he officially announced his transfer to the planning departnt manager.
Originally, he planned to chat a little and leave, but now he felt a bit uneasy, like a huge pressure was nearby! It reminded him of the feeling he had at the hotel club’s casino, was soone targeting him?
He maintained a smile on his face, chatted a bit more, and then headed towards the security room.
Before he got there, the head of security, Yang Dalong, had already co over and quietly said, "Old Li, I was just about to find you. Co take a look!"
Seeing his deanor, Li Yan was a bit surprised. Did Yang Dalong discover sothing too? Is it his skill, or did the person in the shadows create so big scene?
Yang Dalong led him to the security room, directly to the monitoring room. On one of the computers, he pulled up a surveillance monitor, adjusted its angle, and then pointed at it for Li Yan to watch.
"This is a monitor facing outside the company. This car has been parked here for over half an hour. I was inford by the outside security booth when I was there. Then I ca back in and adjusted the monitor to watch..."
Listening to Yang Dalong’s low voice, Li Yan’s eyes fell on the car on the screen, and he casually asked, "There should be quite a few situations like this, right? Maybe they’re just here to pick up their girlfriends or waiting for soone."
Yang Dalong nodded approvingly, "That’s right, such situations aren’t uncommon. But I observed the car outside and think it seems a bit problematic. Of course, if it were a general deputy team leader, I wouldn’t discuss it but just pay more attention myself. But you’re different, even our little manager Li admires you, so I thought I’d inform you."
Li Yan silently praised him, thinking that indeed, Yang Dalong was a standout among veterans, and it’s no wonder he could lead and awe so many guards. With Yang Dalong’s tip, he was almost certain the person who made him feel uneasy was probably in this car!
"You should tell everyone to be more vigilant. From now on, be doubly cautious in all aspects. As for this car, let go check it out! I’ll drive over and take a look." Li Yan smiled and patted Yang Dalong’s shoulder, signaling him to be cautious but not overly tense.
Yang Dalong nodded, "You be careful too!"
Li Yan ca out, not exiting from the front but from the back door. He detoured to the parking lot, drove out, and sped towards the place where the car was parked.
It was a Chevrolet SUV. From the car’s angle, it had a good view of the company’s entrance, like they were waiting for soone to get off work there. But when Li Yan appeared behind them and was still so distance away, the car imdiately started and left!
Not only did the car’s actions expose them, but also, due to the proximity, Li Yan could clearly feel that the person putting pressure on him was in that car upfront!
The last ti, it was by chance that he went to the casino; if Hai Fu hadn’t coincidentally been with him, he might not have noticed anything. Therefore, regarding the pressure he felt in that club, he just assud there was a likely peer expert inside. He didn’t treat it as an enemy, opting to leave quietly instead.
But this ti was different; that person found their way to the company’s entrance, so it wasn’t a coincidence but a lead from last ti that traced him here.
To a dangerous person, Li Yan wouldn’t provoke them randomly; but towards a dangerous enemy, he would definitely seek to eliminate them quickly!
The person in the car upfront, although actively leaving, didn’t seem to intend on shaking off Li Yan behind them. They didn’t engage in a car performance race or driving skills contest, just maintained a certain distance. Upon realizing this, Li Yan didn’t launch a direct pursuit but followed while analyzing the other party’s identity.
He’s not one to leave his safety up to chance. After discovering the situation that day, he instructed Yue Yao to investigate through various channels whether any remarkable figures had recently entered S City. However, there were no results, just like outsiders couldn’t know King was hidden in S City. Perhaps the other person disguised themselves with a casino or gambler identity.
Nonetheless, it’s not hard to guess. Those coming for him could be either a small possibility of Wei Zhenguo being unconvinced and hiring an expert, or more likely, an S-Class assassin looking for King who stumbled upon him.
The car kept moving, and near reaching Harmony Square, the Chevrolet in front suddenly sped up. Li Yan considered it and also sped up. After a while, he had caught up with the car in front. The Chevrolet SUV stopped by the roadside, and no one was inside it anymore, while next to it was the crowded Harmony Square.
With a sudden acceleration, turn, and stop, the whole process only took a few seconds for the car to leave Li Yan’s sight. Within those few seconds, the person had left the car and blended into the crowd in the square.
Li Yan also stopped, got out of the car, and walked towards the square.
