137: Chapter 137: Calmness (Extra update for book friend Delisa Mengmengda) (Update 41) 137: Chapter 137: Calmness (Extra update for book friend Delisa Mengmengda) (Update 41) “We need you to dispatch an elite Sea Battle Department team onboard The Crane Orchid for support.”

Li Shijie stated the purpose of his visit.

“It’s our honor, and Dawn Group cannot shirk such responsibility.

Although we are currently preparing for a major combat operation, we are willing to adjust our strategy.”

Ye Tian didn’t hesitate for a moment in his reply, and of course, he made it sound as if he was making a significant sacrifice.

Li Shijie, who readily detected the implication, said earnestly to Ye Tian, “Your attitude brings us great relief.

Should your team perform well in this mission, I will report to the Council President and have military merit recorded for you.

Additionally, this year’s quota relief will also be granted to you accordingly.”

“My deepest thanks.”

A trace of excitement, barely noticeable, flashed across Ye Tian’s taut face.

After giving his instructions, Li Shijie saluted Ye Tian.

“Goodbye.”

“Goodbye, take care,” responded Ye Tian, returning the salute.

Li Shijie then turned, got into the black sedan with precision, and drove away.

Watching Li Shijie’s retreating figure, Ye Tian’s expression grew even more solemn; he didn’t notify Qian Chengxue right away.

Instead, he hesitated on the spot, considering the great importance of the mission.

Knowing that military merit was at stake, he pondered how to ensure the rescue operation went smoothly and was optimized.

If The Crane Orchid were in the hands of the First Legion, he wouldn’t be so conflicted.

The issue was that there had already been a conflict over The Crane Orchid at a previous meeting, and he had seen Qian Chengxue’s determination.

Moreover, there’s an old saying: ‘Without rules, there’s no square or circle’.

He also couldn’t just break his own established rules…

Within the villa area, in the surveillance room, a butler dismissed the security personnel watching the monitors.

He watched the garden cameras for a long time.

After the meeting ended, he turned off the surveillance and walked out.

Then, the butler hid in the bathroom, picked up the phone, and made a call.

Soon a steady voice answered on the other end.

“What is it?”

“Young master, Lord Li Shijie has made a sudden visit…”

…

Not long afterward, within the Tenth Legion’s building of Dawn Group, employees walked around chatting and laughing.

Suddenly, a group of people dressed in uniform, exuding a refined air, surrounded Ye Wuheng as they walked into the company.

The surrounding employees stepped aside to clear the way, looking at the group in astonishment.

“Am I seeing things, or is that Ye Wuheng?”

“It looks like him, he’s even more handsome in person than in photos!”

“Since when did you become so infatuated?

Didn’t you see he came to our building?”

“What’s so strange about that, aren’t we all part of the same guild?”

…

In the top-floor office of the building, Qian Chengxue stood with someone in front of her.

This person was Zhao Han, who was showing Qian Chengxue a video of Ye Wei poaching employees in her office.

“Sigh, Sister Xue, don’t you think it’s about time you considered raising my salary?

Look at how high others are paying, with offers of five million and all.”

Qian Chengxue extended her hand and patted Zhao Han’s shoulder, her expression gentle as she spoke.

“You’ve worked hard.”

Zhao Han, in turn, revealed a brilliant smile to Qian Chengxue: “It’s no trouble at all, I’m well aware of my own worth.

I’m not even worth that much if you sell me.

Besides, my position today is all thanks to your promotion.”

“We’re sisters; let’s not talk about that.”

Qian Chengxue was inwardly moved, and her usually indifferent demeanor softened considerably.

The Tenth Legion is different from the other legions in that it has no significant background of its own, so all its core members are those she recruited from the lower echelons, from among the disfavored groups.

Qian Chengxue treats every one of them as brothers and sisters.

“But Sister Xue, you need to be careful yourself.

Ye Wei’s attempt to poach failed this time, but she definitely won’t let it go at that.”

Zhao Han sincerely warned.

“I understand.”

“Then I’ll get back to my work.”

“Go ahead.”

Qian Chengxue nodded.

Once Zhao Han had left, Qian Chengxue sat in her seat, leaning tiredly back in her chair.

This move by Ye Wei not only infuriated Qian Chengxue internally but also made her feel a strong sense of crisis.

She had to make herself strong as soon as possible, or else incidents like this would certainly keep happening.

A moment later, Qian Chengxue adjusted her state, and just as she was about to head to her private login room, a holographic image popped up and a receptionist spoke urgently.

“Sister Xue, Vice President Ye Wuheng is here.”

Qian Chengxue’s already frosty face seemed to grow even colder as she said, “I know.”

Then the holographic communication was cut off, and Qian Chengxue’s brows knitted tightly together.

Ye Wei had always been following her elder brother.

Right after her underhanded recruitment failed, she was so eager to come here.

It was clear that the visitor bore ill intentions.

However, there was something Qian Chengxue couldn’t figure out; Ye Wuheng should not be so unsettled.

Of course, Qian Chengxue had no idea of the reason because she had not yet received a call from her father.

It wasn’t long before Qian Chengxue heard a rush of footsteps outside her office.

Then the door to the office was pushed open, and Ye Wuheng appeared at the entrance.

He said to the subordinates who followed him, “Wait outside, and don’t let anyone disturb us.”

“Yes.”

The loyal followers quickly responded.

Ye Wuheng closed the door of the office behind him and sat down directly in front of Qian Chengxue, radiating a strong aura of oppression.

“I wonder why you have come to see me, big brother?”

Qian Chengxue asked calmly.

“It doesn’t matter what we say; we’re family after all, let’s not be so distant,” Ye Wuheng said generously.

Qian Chengxue was silent for a few seconds, then said to Ye Wuheng, “Big brother, let’s talk business.

There’s no need for empty pleasantries that waste both your time and mine.”

“Good, I like your straightforward spirit.

I want The Crane Orchid.

You name the price!”

Ye Wuheng cut to the chase, knowing he didn’t have much time.

He understood his father very well.

Ye Tian was a man of extreme pride who would not break the rules he had set for himself unless absolutely necessary, nor would he allow anyone to question his authority, even if his decisions were wrong.

“I do not wish to sell that vessel; I have made my position very clear on this matter,” Qian Chengxue replied.

“One billion!”

Ye Wuheng raised his hand and stated a figure that even made Qian Chengxue take notice.

He was determined to win this time.

To Ye Wuheng, a billion was a significant sacrifice, but worth the price.

With The Crane Orchid, he could stand out in the Sky Dragon Guild and make a great achievement!

That military honor was extremely important to him.

You see, succeeding the Ye Family required more than just family recognition.

In a sense, he also needed the Council’s approval.
