Chapter 23.2 - The villain is the scheming boss (23) Part 2

Translator: Prakriti Bhatta

When the phone hung up, he was in doubt whether he was pranked by Gu Xiyu. Then a message notification suddenly popped up at the top of the screen.

【Little spy: Look up! 】

The time on the phone showed it was exactly 00:00. Ji Chen subconsciously followed the words said by Xiyu. The bright fireworks suddenly exploded in his sight, adding a light color to the glass windows of his office and staining them heavily in his eyes.

The phone shook in his hand again.

【Little spy: Happy birthday. 】

This was the first time that someone other than the old housekeeper helped him celebrate his birthday.

The place where the fireworks were set off was obviously in the nearby hill area, far away from the downtown area. Ji Chen was taken aback for a moment. He then suddenly got up and walked to the french windows.

Under the building, a boy wearing a long light gray windbreaker jacket with slightly curly hair stood under a street lamp not far away, looking up in his direction. They were obviously separated by such a long distance, but Ji Chen inexplicably felt that their eyes were meeting.

The strange feeling slipped through his heart for a moment.

It was as if his soul finally met the person he was looking for after a long wait across countless times and space??????

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that the indifferent person downstairs was just doing this to please him for the completion of his task.

『The target’s risk value is -5. The current risk value is 70. 』

Ji Chen’s hand holding the phone tightened subconsciously.

But he still couldn’t help being tempted.

After the visual feast brought by the fireworks ended, the surroundings calmed down again.

The phone received another text message.

【Little spy: Also, there are many people who want to deal with you. So you have to be careful. 】

One minute later, another one was sent from the other side.

【Little spy: It’s very complicated, I don’t know how to tell you. But those people might have a lot of things that will put you and your company in a difficult situation, no matter what it is and who they are, you should not trust them at all. 】

Ji Chen looked back at his computer and chuckled silently.

He has never been accustomed to putting 100% trust in people, even Liyang Group, which had a good relationship with his company before.

Till today, he has made himself successful step by step. How could he be destroyed by these people who speak more than take action?

Ji Chen was not worried, but he still gave Gu Xiyu a few messages back.

【What about you? 】

【Are you one of them too? 】

Gu Xiyu downstairs stared at the two sentences sent by Ji Chen. He paused for a long time with his finger on the button before tapping to answer.

【As long as you don’t do anything beyond my bottom line, I will never be on the list. 】

Ji Chen’s reply came out after a short period of time.

【Big Devil: What I do is because of an initial goal. 】

【Big Devil: If you can give me a new goal, then my bottom line will be on you. 】
