Disciple, go down the mountain and wreak havoc on your martial sister
Chapter 45 - 45 44 I need to ask for instructions

45: Chapter 44 I need to ask for instructions 45: Chapter 44 I need to ask for instructions Upon hearing the four words “Qingmei Zhuojiu,” the members of the Zheng Family immediately brightened up.

The name sounded quite poetic, but the business it dealt with was anything but romantic.

As long as the money was right, “Qingmei Zhuojiu” would dare to take on any task.

In fact, ever since her rise to fame, she had never failed.

With her taking on the job, there might be a chance to do something about that Chu Yi!

“Yes!

We’ll contact them right away!”

…

“Is this the evidence you got from the Zheng Family?”

Looking at the hard drive in front of her, Yue Yao could hardly believe it.

Given the Zheng Family’s caution, their methods for securing secrets should be extremely strict – distributed in various places, documented in several ways, utilizing codes, and so on.

How could a single hard drive take care of it all?

Chu Yi leaned back in his car seat, resting his head, and said, “What era do you think we’re in now, using an isolated encrypted computer, isn’t it more convenient and secure than paper records?”

“If it’s an isolated encrypted computer, then how did you find it?

How did you crack and copy it?”

The more she spoke, the more puzzled Yue Yao became.

Chu Yi chuckled and suddenly moved closer to her: “Let me touch you and I’ll tell you.”

Yue Yao immediately recoiled tactically, her face turning red: “Don’t even think about it!”

“Then forget it.”

Chu Yi sat back down, silently marveling to himself, never expecting his master to keep up with the times and possess such advanced hacking skills.

Connecting an old-fashioned phone to a computer, the master cracked the Zheng Family’s encryption in minutes.

Where on earth did she learn all that from!

Chu Yi just couldn’t figure it out, always feeling that his master was a time management expert; otherwise, how could she delve into so much in such limited time, and still not forget to binge-watch dramas…

After a moment of silence in the car, Yue Yao asked, “Where are you going?

Name a place.”

“Home.” After Chu Yi replied, he asked again, “By the way, the stuff on the hard drive, can it cause the Zheng Family’s downfall?”

“It depends on the extent, and even with the records on the hard drive, taking down the Zheng Family won’t be easy.

We’ll need more testimonial and physical evidence, among other things.

Verification could take a long time, and if the Zheng Family tampers with evidence and gets protection from certain people, it could take even longer, maybe dragging on for years.”

Chu Yi frowned: “That long?”

“What did you expect?

If what you’re saying is true, this isn’t just about the Zheng Family.

It’s going to be a large-scale earthquake, affecting everything from top to bottom.

Convicting the Zheng Family is actually the least of it; the real drama is the power struggle among different parties.”

Chu Yi heaved a long sigh: “Had I known it would be like this, I would have just been more drastic.”

“More drastic?”

Of course, to spare no one!

The thought of turning back crossed Chu Yi’s mind, but he finally decided against it.

After all, the Zheng Family had hundreds of people, including men, women, the elderly, and children.

While the security guards might be considered accomplices, the children and domestic workers who cooked and cleaned were truly innocent.

If he really spared no one, post-traumatic stress disorder wouldn’t be far off.

“Never mind, I’ll leave the Zheng Family to you then.”

Yue Yao did not immediately agree: “I need to report this to the chairman first…”

As she spoke, she actually made a call to Han Likuo.

“Yue Yao, what’s the matter, calling me so late?”

“Chairman, here’s the thing…”

After Yue Yao briefly explained the situation, there was a sudden silence on Han Likuo’s end.

The chairman shouldn’t agree, after all, this is a major issue that could trigger a chain reaction.

One misstep could trigger a major earthquake, and the Han Corporation might even get caught up in it.

How could you carelessly implicate us in this!

However, what Yue Yao never expected was that after a moment of silence, Han Likuo suddenly said, “Give your phone to Chu Yi.”

Yue Yao paused, somewhat puzzled, and handed the phone to Chu Yi, “The chairman wants to speak with you.”

After Chu Yi took the phone, he said cheerfully, “Uncle Han, good evening.”

Han Likuo’s voice was extremely serious, “Chu, is what Yue Yao said true?”

“Hmm…

she knows only the superficial details.” Chu Yi thought for a moment, “I took a quick look, and the Zheng Family is suspected in a number of disappearance cases, homicides, and violent crimes in the surrounding areas.

As for the final handling of these cases, well, I don’t need to tell you; you can probably guess.

To put it bluntly, the Zheng Family’s death is no loss.

Those who shield them deserve to die even more!”

“I understand.

Give the phone back to Yue Yao.”

“Here, he wants to speak with you.”

Chu Yi handed the phone back to Yue Yao, and after she took it, she heard Han Likuo command in a deep voice, “Yue Yao, mobilize all our resources.

Don’t worry about the consequences; any losses are insignificant.

Uproot the Zheng Family and their protectors for me!”

Yue Yao’s eyes widened in shock, “Chairman, isn’t this…

too rash?”

“It doesn’t matter, just go ahead and do it.”

“Well…

okay then!”

Yue Yao hesitated, but eventually agreed.

After hanging up the phone, she couldn’t help but glance at Chu Yi through the rearview mirror.

How could this guy be so valued by the chairman?

It was an issue that could affect the whole body, yet with just a few words from him, the chairman had agreed.

It was simply inconceivable; surely this couldn’t be the case with just anyone?

Chu Yi noticed her gaze and looked back through the rearview mirror with a smile that was not quite a smile.

“What?

If you want to look, then look openly.

Why sneak around?”

“Who’s sneaking around!”

Yue Yao turned around, shivering slightly as she quickly averted her eyes.

Seeing her chest bounce heavily, Chu Yi’s lips curled slightly.

“Heavenly Eye, activate!”

The view before him was suddenly filled with boundless spring scenery, and with the car’s vibrations, it even bounced rhythmically.

Very nice indeed.

Seeming to sense Chu Yi’s gaze, Yue Yao did not turn around, but her face turned red visibly fast.

Why is he always staring there!

This rotten hooligan!

Grumbling inside, Yue Yao gave Chu Yi a glare through the rearview mirror.

Unfortunately, her baby face didn’t look very intimidating at all.

Instead, it appeared somewhat cute, almost like a pout.

Without thinking, Chu Yi blurted out, “Have you been told that you look very cute when you glare?”

Yue Yao’s heart skipped a beat.

What did he mean by that?

Could it be that he wanted to…

“Chu Yi!

I’m not Lingyue.

Your smooth talk won’t work on me.”

“Who said it was smooth talk?

I genuinely think so,” Chu Yi leaned in a bit closer.

“Look at you now, your little face all flushed, even cuter.”

Yue Yao’s heart missed a beat and she became a bit lost in thought, nearly hitting the car in front of them if not for Chu Yi’s reminder.

After snapping out of it, she ordered with the guilt of a thief, “Shut up and don’t distract me while I’m driving!”

Chu Yi laughed and fell silent, propping his right hand against the window and resting his head on it, turning to stare at Yue Yao…

and her figure.

Just as Yue Yao couldn’t help feeling shy and was about to tell him to stop taking liberties, Chu Yi suddenly looked out the window.

The next moment, he patted Yue Yao on the shoulder.

“Stop the car, someone is looking for me.”
