Chapter 2398 - 1797: Only Speed Is Unbreakable_2
Obtain authorization, request personnel, and have the leader withstand the pressure.
In Bai Xiaosheng’s view, this should be pretty much enough.
"Pressure? I’m used to it. I’ll arrange people right away!" Wen Yan responded crisply, "I’ll call you in less than half an hour."
After finishing the conversation with Wen Yan and hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath, his gaze distant.
At this moment.
In America, in Ganande, inside Wen Yan’s office. Wen Yan also put down the phone, falling into a brief contemplation.
Beside Wen Yan were Ruan Yu and that white-haired old man Huang.
They also heard the conversation between the two.
Ruan Yu couldn’t help but murmur to Wen Yan about the matter, "The situation that Bai Xiaosheng mentioned, our people had already found some clues. However, since it’s a significant matter and there’s no conclusive evidence, according to your orders, we’ve temporarily sealed it and are investigating secretly. This time, the company called ’Green Sky’ has relocated, and it seems they’ve noticed our presence, making significant personnel changes. From what Bai Xiaosheng said, it seems they have obtained some important evidence. But they just arrived in Africa, this is really..."
Ruan Yu felt like Bai Xiaosheng and his team had accidentally won the jackpot.
Huang couldn’t help but remind, "Young Master, this is not simply a matter of a few companies. It involves two top-tier figures; just Caroline alone is hard to shake. They might react intensely in some areas or even join forces. This is very troublesome! Also, it seems that Mr. Bai Xiaosheng doesn’t know what a volatile temper the President of the Africa division has. He’s about to retire, and if a scandal breaks out under his watch, who knows what might happen..."
"How about you inform Bai Xiaosheng of the situation and advise them to pause their actions so we can discuss it thoroughly first?" Ruan Yu suggested.
"At the very least, we can’t let Bai Xiaosheng’s reckless actions cause problems for us." Huang also said.
Wen Yan listened silently to the two, his gaze distant.
The two of them were at a loss for words.
"’That man,’ still hasn’t met Bai Xiaosheng yet." Wen Yan murmured, "Compared to me actively engaging with Bai Xiaosheng, he seems unwilling to contact him."
The mention of "that man" by Wen Yan made Ruan Yu and Huang feel serious.
Wen Yan sighed with such an off-topic comment and suddenly refocused on the matter at hand, saying calmly, "I actively befriend Bai Xiaosheng and help him selflessly. The goal is not to be like a nanny taking care of him in everything. Flowers raised in a greenhouse ultimately won’t grow up."
"What I need is a bold and wise ally. Bai Xiaosheng has shown potential in this regard before."
"Leave this matter to Bai Xiaosheng; let him shoulder the credit and the trouble. I’ll give him authority and support, everything he needs!"
"But I will never point out the truly dangerous areas to him, even if I know them easily, but he doesn’t. In doing things, one must know whether they’re stepping on a vortex or quicksand with each step. This is the most basic ability as my ally!"
Wen Yan said in a deep voice, "I hope he can resolve the current issue and the trouble that follows!"
Ruan Yu and Huang exchanged a glance and both nodded slightly.
They had always supported Wen Yan’s decisions.
"Now, arrange to deploy personnel to fully cooperate with Bai Xiaosheng’s side." Wen Yan decisively instructed, "I want it done in twenty minutes!"
"Yes!" Ruan Yu and Huang responded in unison.
Half an hour later, Bai Xiaosheng received Wen Yan’s response. The personnel had been arranged and could be dispatched at any time. Bai Xiaosheng didn’t need to worry about the headquarters. As the head of the group’s internal affairs department, not even the deputy chairman could budge Wen Yan one bit.
Bai Xiaosheng was greatly appreciative of Wen Yan’s support and, after putting down the phone, contacted Lei Ying again.
In martial arts, speed prevails.
Now they were also playing a "speed" game. No matter who the opponent was, and no matter how cunning, if they couldn’t react in time, the odds of winning would be significantly increased for them.
If the matter was delayed even a night, unforeseen changes might occur, so it was best to act now.
Lei Ying had been waiting for Bai Xiaosheng’s call.
He had obtained the evidence, although he had manipulated it a bit, if that woman Jenny noticed something was amiss, she might report it.
The situation might change then.
Lei Ying also thought it was best to act that day; once decided, even if rushed, they had to take action.
At Bai Xiaosheng’s call, Lei Ying was immediately excited, and upon hearing that additional personnel had been arranged, he was even more ready to act.
From Bai Xiaosheng to Wen Yan, and then to Lei Ying, everyone was busily preparing for action.
Meanwhile, the other side had just enjoyed a delicious meal.
Jenny and old John were savoring their dessert, chatting, and laughing.
The meal lasted two to three hours, but for a leisurely French meal, that wasn’t much.
"Miss Jenny, forgive my boldness, but I’d still like to take a look at the contract between us, just to have a sense of it. Of course, I’ll also bring the contract prepared on our side. In fact, I have it with me." Mr. John patted his bag and smiled at Jenny.
Some things are best done promptly, the sooner the better, for peace of mind.
Mr. John didn’t know why, but he just had a slight feeling of unease today, though he couldn’t put his finger on the reason.
Jenny looked at Mr. John, then at his briefcase, and burst into a smile, "It seems, Mr. John, your decisive style is something you just can’t change."
"Well then, alright." Jenny agreed.
Mr. John was immediately pleased.
The two of them skipped dessert and immediately got up to leave.
The attendants waiting outside saw the two coming out and immediately surrounded them, leading them out of the restaurant.
In the car, they headed straight to Jenny’s current residence, which had been arranged by Mr. John. There were no safety concerns, and Jenny felt at ease.
When the two arrived at the hotel, they took some people to the room.
Outside Jenny’s residence, they instructed their attendants to wait outside while they entered the inner room alone.
The luxury suite in such a high-end hotel had a safe with a very high security level, and Jenny opened the room’s safe to take out her box.
It was a dark box with a non-reflective surface, yet it looked incredibly sturdy.
During lunch, Mr. John had heard Jenny repeatedly praising how the box was waterproof, fireproof, and theft-proof, made of titanium alloy, incredibly strong, with three bright and dark locks. Using the wrong one would lock it, requiring another set of codes.
As Jenny took out the box and saw Mr. John’s eyes glued to it, she gently patted the surface with her smooth, delicate hand and laughed, "How about it, with the documents in here, they’re absolutely safe!"
Mr. John also laughed and, feeling a bit impatient, said, "Then Miss Jenny, could you open it and let me see the contract?"
Upon hearing this, Jenny laughed, bent down to half cover the box, and began to maneuver.
At the last step, the lock suddenly made a slight "click" sound.
It...locked!
Jenny was stunned.
Mr. John was even more taken aback.
"Did you enter it incorrectly?" Mr. John couldn’t help but ask.
Jenny frowned, "How could that be? I’m familiar with this code, as constant as remembering my birthday."
"What do we do then?" Mr. John didn’t care how well Jenny remembered.
Anyway, the box was locked tight now.
"No worries, there’s a backup unlocking code, but it’s just a bit tricky to operate." Jenny said.
Mr. John nodded and watched Jenny unlock a small mechanism at the corner of the box, initiating the backup code operation.
This took a good half an hour, with tiny beads of sweat forming on Jenny’s forehead.
Finally, with a slight "click", Jenny’s face broke into a smile, and she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Mr. John, please take a look!" Jenny smiled at Mr. John and opened the box.
Mr. John was transfixed, muttering, "Miss Jenny, your box has so many mechanisms, where are the documents?"
"Aren’t they just in..." Jenny looked over puzzled and suddenly froze, eyes wide open.
Then, Jenny let out a terrifying shriek, "Where are my things!"
The documents stored in the double safes had vanished without a trace.
Mr. John, witnessing this scene, was even more astonished.
Just then, they heard a commotion outside.
Someone was shouting, "Who are you, you can’t go in there!"
Then, a somewhat familiar voice followed, "Not going in? Fine, then please ask your Mr. John, and that Miss Jenny to come out. For an investigation!"
