Chapter 1502: Chapter 1500: The Sour Scent of Love

Reopening Fire Phoenix Agency!

Yang Chen’s face was somber.

He truly didn’t want to see Ye Xin take risks.

He looked at Ye Xin, Ye Xin’s face resolute, he was speechless.

"I’ll send Meng Po to follow you!" Yang Chen could only say these words.

Ye Xin slightly widened her eyes and glared at him, "Why bring her along?"

Yang Chen said gravely, "With her following you, I’m at ease!"

"What if I’m not at ease?" Ye Xin widened her eyes slightly.

Yang Chen shrugged, "I don’t know your people, but my people, I deeply understand them. Only if she goes will I be at ease! If she doesn’t go, I won’t allow you to reopen the department!"

Wang Ming and Chen Siyan saw the situation and chose to leave.

Because they smelled a whiff of love’s sourness.

Only the two of them were left in the living room.

"No way! What gives you the right to plant people in my department? Who knows what you’re up to? In my kind of department, the last thing you want is outsiders. No way, I absolutely won’t allow it!" Ye Xin was very resolute in her stance.

She really didn’t want Meng Po to work with her.

Originally a formidable rival, now she had to maintain a working relationship with such a rival, she couldn’t take it.

Yang Chen glared and said, "How could she be an outsider? She’s my subordinate, you trust her, you can trust her just like you trust me!"

"I can’t do it!" Ye Xin turned her head away.

Yang Chen slightly frowned, "Don’t be stubborn!"

Ye Xin immediately turned back around, glaring at Yang Chen said, "How is this being stubborn? My team is good, has always been good for so many years, I don’t need anyone interfering with my work! I can handle everything completely on my own, I don’t need outsiders to help me!"

"She’s not an outsider!" Yang Chen frowned and said.

"No! To me, she is!" Ye Xin said forcefully.

"You!" Yang Chen glared fiercely.

"What’s wrong with me? Why glare at me? Want to argue with me? You’re willing to argue with me for someone else?" Ye Xin shouted loudly.

"I..." Yang Chen found it really hard to handle Ye Xin.

"There’s no ’I’ or ’not I’! Now you don’t find me precious, you want to switch to someone else!" Ye Xin glared and said.

Yang Chen was very helpless, "What does that have to do with anything? You know my feelings for you best."

"Then you should trust me! My affairs, I can handle them! Since I’m called Fire Phoenix, in this industry, no one can surpass me!" Ye Xin was very confident and resolute.

"No way!" Yang Chen shook his head, "If that’s the case, I’m not at ease, I’ll worry about you!"

Hearing this, Ye Xin’s heart immediately softened.

She didn’t want Yang Chen to worry, because doing such work, if one is distracted by other things, there could be danger.

"But... I can handle it completely on my own!" Ye Xin said softly.

Yang Chen shook his head, "But even so, I’m not at ease, it’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s that I’m not at ease with the people around you. After your department disbanded, your people were distributed all over the place, and you have no idea what kind of people they’ve been in contact with. Tell me, how many people do you think you can trust? You can trust the professor, you can trust Sun Yue, but what about the others? What have they been doing during this time? Is there any possibility they have other thoughts towards you, or has anyone they’ve been in contact with been harboring other intentions, can you be sure?"

Ye Xin opened her charming red lips, unable to say a word.

"I’m right, right? Moreover, your work has very strong confidentiality. Every person is screened after painstakingly long training and investigations before being confirmed. Now, after such a long time, you have no idea what they’ve done. Society is like a big dye tank, you throw a person in a dye tank, how do you know if they’ve changed color?"

"I..." Ye Xin opened her mouth but couldn’t refute.

She knew what Yang Chen said was very reasonable, she had no way to counter it.

"That’s why I’m letting Meng Po go. Meng Po has been with me for so long, I know her ability. And you know her strength as well. So when you’re executing your tasks, she can help you. If you don’t want her help, at least she can help you screen and identify your subordinates, at least ensure the safety, confidentiality, and accuracy of the intelligence when you’re executing tasks."

"Moreover," Yang Chen looked deeply at Ye Xin, "I don’t want any accidents to happen to you, only by ensuring your safety will I be at ease. You say you want to reopen Fire Phoenix Department, I can agree. But you must guarantee your safety! Guaranteeing safety means confirming the safety of your subordinates. With Meng Po there, I won’t have so many concerns."

Ye Xin’s heart melted under Yang Chen’s gentle gaze.

"Then... alright..." Ye Xin compromised.

"But!" Ye Xin raised her finger and said, "I demand that she must follow my orders! No matter what she does, she has to listen to me! Otherwise, I won’t take her!"

"Alright!" Yang Chen said, "I guarantee she will follow your arrangements!"

"Alright!" Ye Xin nodded, "A promise is a promise!"

She extended her pinky finger.

Looking at Ye Xin’s fair fingers, Yang Chen couldn’t help but think of their childhood, the scene under the big tree where they hooked their fingers.

"Brother Yang Chen, will you marry me and become my husband when I grow up?"

"Okay!"

"Then let’s hook fingers!"

"Yeah! Hook fingers!"

"Hook fingers and hang them up, for a hundred years, no change!"

"Hook fingers and hang them up, for a hundred years, no change!"

Two youthful faces showed brilliant smiles.

As if from that moment, their fate was destined.

Yang Chen smiled and reached out his hand, pinky hooking together with Ye Xin’s, and laughed, "Hook fingers! Hook fingers and hang them up, a hundred years, no change!"

"Yeah!" Ye Xin’s face reddened, as if she also recalled the past scene.

"Hmph! Dumb rogue!" Ye Xin quickly withdrew her hand.

Yang Chen looked around, and said with a mischievous smile, "If there weren’t others at home, I’d show you what a real rogue is!"

"Bring it on! Who’s afraid of who!"

"Hey!" Yang Chen glared, anxious inside, but helpless.

"Alright! Ye Xin, you’re fierce! If you have what it takes, wait and see, I’ll deal with you!" Yang Chen stood up, pointed at Ye Xin, threatened.

"Hmph! Not sure who’s afraid of whom! Maybe it’s me dealing with you!" Ye Xin was fearless, as if convinced Yang Chen wouldn’t dare do anything to her.

Yang Chen fiercely pointed at Ye Xin, unable to say a word, eventually only gritting his teeth, turned and left.

Watching Yang Chen’s back, Ye Xin revealed a brilliant smile, as if having won a battle and was very happy.

"This girl welcomes you to challenge me anytime!" Ye Xin taunted towards Yang Chen’s back.

Yang Chen quickly hastened his pace to leave.

"Can’t stand it! This girl, someday I really need to deal with her properly!" Yang Chen muttered to himself.
