Chapter 727 - 421: The Loneliness of Experts (2)

"Another time?"

"No, sob sob..."

After the long night, Su Huan finally got the answer he wanted.

Shu Wei seemed cold, but in truth, her nature was even weaker than Yu Yue’s.

As for Lord Lian, he had a fiery nature to his bones, no use even if he was beaten to death.

Shu Wei hugged her knees, near dazed, sitting at the bed’s edge, while Su Huan sat on the room’s only chair, watching the flames burning outside all night, frowning, "So you’re saying, you don’t know who sent you the message to go back, and then you just went?"

Shu Wei shook her head, "He definitely wouldn’t ask me for help, but his situation is indeed very bad."

Su Huan frowned even more tightly; he did not want to deal with Mr. Shu’s matters, although he made a profit last time, it didn’t mean he had any fondness for anyone named Shu.

He could go, but the woman must ask him first.

"For me, this isn’t a troublesome matter, maybe a few days, and I’ll be back."

"Flatten everything?"

"Is that not good?"

Shu Wei felt powerless to mock, just shook her head gently, "No need."

Seeing the man showing signs of standing up again, the woman’s flower-like face lost color, teary-eyed and holding her legs, "I didn’t mean that, I meant I think I can handle it now, I’ve become quite strong..."

Su Huan touched the woman’s hair with deep intent, "So strong."

Normally, facing such a child-coaxing tone, Shu Wei would have sneered, but now she was flustered, wishing to swear an oath.

"I just want to see how far I can go; maybe I can become a big boss dominating one side in the future? I admit I have a bit of selfishness, but absolutely no intention of hiding anything from you."

"A big boss dominating one side, tsk tsk tsk." Su Huan raised her chin, "And then come back to seek revenge on me?"

Light gray pupils trembled.

"I wouldn’t dare."

"Can’t or wouldn’t dare, speak the truth."

"I truly don’t have that thought..."

"I treat you this way, and you haven’t thought about the day I lose my power, and coincidentally you’re the big boss, then capture me, and return today’s humiliation completely? After all, back then you shouted so loudly ’Today’s humiliation, repay it double!’, though the possibility is small, have you really not thought about it?"

Su Huan coaxed gently.

Shu Wei was about to shake her head, but seeing that dangerous expression, wisely nodded, "A little..."

Su Huan laughed.

This woman truly dares to think.

"Wait, didn’t you say honest people get rewards?"

"Aren’t I rewarding you?"

"I truly made a mistake this time..."

"Not just this time."

...

Shu Wei felt very humiliated tonight, unsure how many times she had begged for mercy, apologized.

A lifetime of people had their dignity thrown away here.

Maintained cold persona for so long also shattered cleanly on this last day.

By the time daylight came, she was already dazed, like a Scavenger walking in the wilderness for months, limbs weak, eyes vacant, pushing the motorcycle but even forgetting to ride it.

Until a lithe figure appeared in front of her.

Seeing Yu Jing before her, Shu Wei hesitated to think if she was supposed to speak.

Yu Jing frowned, "You’re in bad shape."

"Never mind, there are some things I want to talk to you about."

Half an hour later, Shu Wei’s gaze returned to life, looking thoughtfully at the other leaving, then glancing at the motorcycle’s front, her body shook fiercely, turning to grind teeth and sneer coldly, "Didn’t expect you also have weaknesses, Su Huan, you should pray you’ll never fall into my hands this lifetime!"

"Today’s humiliation, repay it double!"

In the train behind, the elongated pupils reflected the woman’s staggering back as she boarded.

Su Huan said calmly, "Go ahead, follow her."

The Giraffe used the train etiquette to thump his chest, "Rest assured, conductor, we will surely protect her."

Su Huan waved his hand with a faint smile, "Living well, that applies to anyone."

"Yes!"

The Giraffe and Bai Lu drove off with teams temporarily drawn from veterans.

Su Huan thoughtfully rubbed his fingertips, electric sparks crackling.

With Shu Wei gone, the special skill he painstakingly honed had no place to use.

A master is lonely.

Yu Yue was too obedient, he couldn’t bear it, puppies get spooked easily, Lord Lian was no use.

...

"Balance of Gravity, March 1, 2037."

"The baby is dying~"

Though Shu Wei had explained all kinds of documents clearly before leaving, actually taking over was still very troublesome.

Since forming the secretary group, Hu Shuo and Shu Wei’s work division had settled in, leaving no way to share tasks, so many things had to be handled by Su Huan himself, even with a complete secretary team, he was still busy to exhaustion.

Even so, the secretary-general position remained vacant.

This disappointed the secretaries for a long time.

"Shu Wei?"

Su Huan instinctively called out, Su Han obediently stepped forward, "Father, do you need the files organized?"

"Hmm..."

Su Huan contemplated, "Return the files regarding the Four Countries Peninsula site construction for redesign, then have a small meeting to discuss Zhou Qing’s armed train academy proposal, finally push the progress on the cultivation pod modification."

"Understood."

Su Han sorted the files by priority and took the three just processed.

"Is there anything else?"

Su Han asked expectantly.

Su Huan glanced at her, casually asked, "How’s the investigation going?"

Su Han’s eyes lit up, presented her thoroughly prepared speech rapidly, and looked eagerly towards Su Huan after finishing.

"Please guide me, father."

After investigating Ding Hui before promptly changing direction, following various turnarounds, analyses, and visits with Zhang Qiang’s cooperation, quite a bit of information was obtained, such as the origin of the Tongzhou Association, who created it, who all were involved back then, why they died, and what’s their program and purpose... a heap of items with little substance.

Evidently, the little girl was fooled by Zhang Qiang, the old veteran.

Reality is not about storytelling, designing twists, in fact, there are not so many twists and analyses, suspecting means catching, catching means judging, this has always been the way of doing things.

Problems emerge—solve the problems.

This is the resolution thought behind 99% of cases worldwide, it’s uneventful, blandly ordinary.

Although Su Han was too young, with incomplete comprehension of the world, she could only supplement with imagination.

Su Huan responded noncommittally with a smile, "Not bad, I can see you’ve thought about it, keep working on it."

Praised, Su Han cheerfully exited, almost joyfully on tiptoe.

After a while, she rushed back in, solemnly said, "Father, Aunt Jun brought two persons wanting to meet you, they say they’re from the Business Alliance."

"Oh?"

Su Huan squinted.

Since his operations ended, Donghuang’s five top forces hadn’t changed for a long time, after the Four Nations War, the position of the Armed Train became increasingly stable, undeniably rising to first place.

And the Business Alliance was one of the top forces.

He had never heard of it in his past life, same as Changbai Pharmaceutical, both being northern forces, officially without Tier Three Evolvers.

Their main business was mutual exchange, many black markets were established by them, Zhijin’s fixed market basically snatching their business, although that time the Business Alliance hadn’t yet ventured into the Storm Zone.

Therefore, with the train, there was no grudge, since Lord Lian could bring them to meet him, there must be some significant transaction.

Currently, trains were not lacking general materials, especially in evolution materials, standing proudly across Donghuang.

Under such circumstances, what interesting things could they offer?

Su Huan felt faintly expectant.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly arose outside, Su Huan lifted his gaze to look out the train’s window, a rumbling sound approached gradually, the black dot becoming a colossal entity.
