Shi Sheng was very busy as of latebusy finding trouble for the Bei Family.

Ms Bei, Bei Enterprises is currently at its peak. What were doing is hitting a stone with an egg¹! This is not a wise move at all! The CEO Shi Sheng hired spoke with an agitated expression.

Shi Sheng sat without a care for her image, legs crossed²and an ice cream in her hand which she licked before responding, Ant nests can break a thousand-mile dam³. As long as we have the perseverance, theres nothing we cant do.

But we need ants for that! Ms Bei, how is our company, which only has slightly over 10 people aside from me, supposed to go against a titan like Bei Enterprises?!

Shi Sheng rolled her eyes at him. Who needs you to act? You think youre Nezha⁴?

CEO,

She swallowed the ice-cream before speaking composedly, There are plenty of people in this world who want to see Bei Enterprises crumble. All you have to do is find these people, and offer them the information they need.

Mr. CEO was suddenly enlightened. He quietly gave his boss a big thumbs-up in his mind but of course, showed no outward signs of it; he was afraid of her ego getting even more inflated.

Have you found anyone who fits the requirements?

Yes, but the salary

Give him however much he wants,providedhe has the ability. Complete the next order, therell be a reward.

Then theres no problem.

Go ahead and do what you want. We dont have any net worth anyways, so we arent afraid of being investigated.

CEO, Its true we dont have any net worth but thats because all of our capitals swimming around in the stock market!

Find some hackers too; were forming a specialised team of them. Theyre going to be in charge of brokering information. Shi Sheng continued, I want the more skilled ones. Preferably those on the level of selling national information.

CEO, Boss what are you planning to do?! Start another world war?!

Also, do you think hackers are white cabbages abundant in the streets, ripe and ready for easy picking?!

These kinds of talented people are either working for the fucking country, or are under heavy surveillance by said country! You think we can just poachthem?!

Do well and youll get to enjoy your monthly salary of 10 million. Walking to the peak of success and marrying your ideal woman isnt just a dream! Shi Sheng ignored his bewildered look and patted his shoulder before waltzing off.

The CEO really felt like just running off right now. The amount in his bank account had already broken past 100 million; he didnt know why this young boss of his was so reassured with him.

Only many years later did the CEO know why he hadnt run back then. He had probably felt, even back then, that money really was just a number as long he was following this boss.

Though the loss of two of its large projects in a row cost Bei Enterprises a lot, the damage did not reach its roots.

But in the following period, all sorts of situations cropped up; projects and orders were lost constantly, as if the people opposing them had decided to all act at the same time. Yet they couldnt find anything no matter how much they investigated.

All of those competitors had used legal methods, all of their procedures adhering to the law.

Theres a traitor! Theres definitely a traitor! One of the directors slapped the desk with a furious roar, We were just about to sign the contract, so how come they signed it with Tian Chen instead at the last moment?!

Father Bei sat at the head of the table, his expression serious. All of the high-level management have been investigated. No anomalies have been discovered.

Theres been something strange about the events recently; its clear that someone is opposing us. Have we offended anyone recently? One of the more logical directors queried.

There are definitely people who were offended because of those two projects, but none of them have this much ability

The two projects they had lost before had been eyed by quite a few competitors, though Bei Enterprises won by only just a slight margin in a comparison of actual strength.

A group of people sat in the meeting room, yet they werent able to come up with any leads no matter how much they discussed.

At first, Father Bei hadnt thought of Bei Zhi; she was a mere hanger-on who had pandered up to the Fu Family in his eyes. However, upon thinking of this, it seemed to make sense.

The Fu Family was a family that wasnt weaker than the Gao Family. The difference was wherein the Gao Family mainly had their power in the government, the Fu Family had theirs in the underworld.

These two families lorded over the worlds of light and dark.

If it was the Fu Family behind this matter, then that would explain the events of late.

The first thing Father Bei did when the meeting ended was to call Shi Shengs number. However, Shi Sheng had already blacklisted him so naturally, it didnt go through.

Father Bei pondered for a bit before deciding to go visit the Fu Family.

According to rumour, the Fu Family had been around since the Qing Dynasty. Their main house had an ancient feel to its architecture, even the very plants seemingly classic and elegant.

Do wait a moment Mr Bei. Our master shall be here soon. A servant invited him in. This wait lasted nearly half an hour, yet Father Bei wasnt able to reveal even the slightest hint of impatience.

The head of the family Fu Rao was pushed in on a wheelchair, causing Father Bei to feel slightly surprised. He had only heard of this person before but had never known that the man was a cripple. With a normal expression, Fu Rao exchanged some pleasantries with Father Bei for a bit before getting to the point.

I wonder what brought Mr Bei to my doorstep today?

Its about my daughter and your (esteemed) son. Father Bei straightened in his seat.

Fu Raos eyebrows lifted slightly. What about Xiaoqin and Ms Bei?

Is Mr Fu not aware? Father Bei looked at Fu Rao, attempting to glean any information from his expression yet finding nothing but puzzlement.

My relationship with Xiaoqin isnt too good; he doesnt let the people beside him report back to me. What has he done?

Father Bei soon grew doubtful. He didnt know whether or not to believe Fu Rao.It looks like he really doesnt know anything Then I guess it wasnt the Fu Family. Who could it be then?

Oh, nothing much. Its just that my daughter and your son have been rather close as of late. Since thereve been rumours, of course I have to come and ask as her father. Father Bei changed what he was going to say.

If it was not the Fu Family and Bei Zhi and Fu Qin really are close, then perhaps the Bei Family can benefit from this.

Fu Rao maintained his confused and lost expression throughout and successfully fooled Father Bei.

Only when Father Bei had left did Fu Rao get rid of that fake smile on his face. He asked the middle-aged man standing to the side, Hows Xiaoqin lately?

Fu Rao hadnt lied to Father Bei; his relationship with his son was really bad. The boy also did not allow the people beside him to report back to Fu Rao. But being his father, of course Fu Rao would think of ways to keep track of Fu Qin.

From the looks of it, the Young Master has already accepted Ms Bei Zhi; he takes his medicine on time whenever he is with her. The doctor, however, was certain that the Young Master only has half a year to live.

Have you arranged everything overseas?

Yes. But Im afraid the Young Master wont agree to go

Fu Rao muttered. Hes my only son; I cant just watch him die. I have to at least attempt every method available. Go and invite that young lady over.

Er The middle-aged man appeared hesitant. Getting Ms Bei Zhi to show up would not be easy.

How so? Fu Rao lifted his brow.How hard can it be to call a young lady over?

I believe youve heard of the crisis Bei Enterprises is facing, Sir? Well, this matter has the young ladys fingerprints all over it. Or, I suppose I should say, shes the one controlling all this. Do you believe this kind of person would be easy to summon?

Fu Rao chuckled lowly. No wonder their head of household came looking for me. He must be thinking the Fu Family was behind it, right? And here I thought he was just testing my attitude towards that little lady.
