Chapter 692: Li Fu Prepares to Withdraw
"Previously, indeed it was not possible, but I never expected that these various incidents would gradually evolve into today's situation. So, if we speak of the past, this condition was unattainable, but as for the current situation, I believe there should be no major problems."
After saying this, he just nodded his head, and felt that what Vice President Li was doing indeed made sense. However, if he were to do it himself, he feared that it wouldn't be as simple as he imagined.
"Alright, from what you've said, I can more or less understand. Although, you only know that there are some deep clues involved, the key issue is that these clues haven't been fully exposed yet?"
"Right, I've only heard about it before, that there are two high-ranking members in the company who are involved with a cult, and it seems that this organization is quite terrifying."
"What? A cult?"
At this point, Ye Chen was momentarily stunned. For all these years, he had lived a life on the edge in the Martial Arts World, but he had never dealt with any cults.
"Yes, there seems to be a cult. And on the surface, this cult might look like a normal trading company, but underneath, there are many secrets unknown to the public. So, he wants you to delve deep into this matter from this angle."
"That company, what kind of relationship does it have with his company?"
"For now, it seems to be merely a superior-subordinate and collaborative relationship. However, this small company has been controlled by another high-ranking member of the company, meaning one of those two people, so he suspects that within there might be many illegal transactions."
"If this really involves something as big as a cult, I'm afraid I can't make the decision on my own."
"Everything depends on human effort. After you go there, you can carefully probe the actual situation. Only after uncovering all this will we know what to do next. Don't worry, even if you truly dig something up, you won't have to face it alone."
"Okay, I understand now. I didn't think this matter would be very difficult initially, but after hearing what you've said, it seems to be getting more and more challenging."
"What do you mean, you want to handle two things at the same time?"
"I have to proceed with both at the same time. Under the current circumstances, I can't afford to be distracted by one issue while holding onto another. Besides, I have already begun preparing for the Deserted Island project. I should be departing for the Deserted Island soon to uncover what exactly happened there in the past and to give Miss Lin a final account."
Li Fu did not speak, just nodded in agreement, as he always admired this quality in Ye Chen.
In any matter, especially when facing major issues, Ye Chen always remained calm and steady, and the more urgent the matter, the more he would reveal his composed nature.
"I tell you, neither matter is simple to handle, but if you succeed in either one, you can essentially enjoy a carefree life for the rest of your days. Understand?"
"Old Li, I've been by your side for so many years. Do you really think I am someone who covets material pleasures? I am not that kind of person, nor do I like such material pleasures. What I really want to do now is to make my utmost effort, then do the things I want to do, including uncovering these hidden secrets one by one."
"Good, with that kind of spirit, there will definitely be no problem. Moreover, I can fully support you. Alright, you've already asked everything you needed to today. Is there anything else you want to inquire about?"
"For now, that's probably about it. Besides, what kind of person is Elder Guo in his dealings with others?"
"As for his manner of dealing with people, I think that's something you shouldn't ask me. You should ponder deeply about this yourself. After you have interacted with Elder Guo for some time, I believe you'll understand. Besides, I'm very picky and won't just follow anyone and dedicate my life for their cause, understand?"
Although Li Fu didn't give a definite answer, his words essentially confirmed that Guo Tao should be a very decent person.
In fact, this is exactly the type of person Ye Chen hoped to serve and yearned for.
"Well then, I have no further questions. For the foreseeable future, I will be immersed in my work. By the way, do you have any plans?"
"I'll settle in here for a bit, then I want to go out for a walk, take a look around everywhere. Now that I'm getting older and I never know when I might suddenly be unable to travel, I want to see the world while I still can."
"Fine, no problem. I've always said that you shouldn't limit yourself to one circle."
"That's also something Elder Guo continually advised me; he thinks my life has been somewhat too oppressive. Now that I can leave everything to you, I can go and freely travel the world."
"Good, that's what I hope to see. Remember, wherever you go, make sure to take lots of photos and send them to me so I can also enjoy the scenery from all over with you."
"Sure, no problem. By the way, Ye Chen, since it has come to this point, come with me to my place tonight. I will hand over some professional materials to you."
"What professional materials? What do you mean?"
"You'll know when you get there. Also, even though I'm ready to step back now, I cannot forget the goals and tasks I have set before, so I will hand over all the materials I've recorded over the years, including some secret manuals, to you. From now on, I won't meddle in affairs of the Martial Arts World anymore."
