The smile on that person’s face also became much more polite. “Our boss specifically told us that there’s no need for Mr. Wu to thank us. It’s just that we have to do a good job in the collaboration.” The threat was faintly revealed in his words. “After all, not everyone can work with our boss. Mr. Wu, if you do well once, we can even be friends.
Wu Ling’s face was drenched in sweat once more. He couldn’t help but nod and say, “Yes, yes, yes. Your boss doesn’t have to worry; I’m definitely reliable.” The man nodded in satisfaction. “Then we’ll await your good news.”
Wu Ling was just about to heave a sigh of relief when he heard that person’s tone change. His breath caught in his throat. Then, he heard him say, “However, our boss is not an unreasonable person. He has already instructed me to listen to your instructions when you need it.”
Wu Ling’s breath immediately relaxed, and he almost collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, he had not been living in vain all these years. He barely held on and did not fall, preserving some level of dignity.
The sweat on Wu Ling’s face flowed into his eyes. He did not take out his handkerchief, but wiped his face on his sleeve with trembling hands and forced a smile. “Ah, this is really…great, great.”
The person didn’t care about these perfunctory words. Instead, he nodded in satisfaction. “Then I’ll take my leave. Mr. Wu, if you need anything, just look for me. My name is Zhou Yi, and I’m on duty in the rest area.”
Wu Ling nodded repeatedly. When he heard the door close with a click, he was still worried. He leaned on the door and listened for a long time. Only after confirming that there was no other sound in the vicinity did he relax and sit on the ground, using his sleeve to wipe the sweat on his face.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that he sat on the ground when he was frightened showed that he and that idiot Yun Yu were indeed uncle and nephew.
Once he thought of Yun Yu, Wu Ling was filled with anger. Since there was no one else in the room, he simply cursed out loud. What idiot, what trash? He cursed like a sailor. Soon after, he cursed Chu Ning and Su Ming, unable to hide the hatred in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Su Ming and the other two had heard a lot from Yun Yu.
Su Ming asked in puzzlement, “Are you saying that Wu Ling originally did not have the chance to work with us this time, but he used some unknown method to make the company we were originally working with unable to turn over their funds and almost go bankrupt? They had no choice but to withdraw, and he then took the opportunity to take over this collaboration at a low price?”
Yun Yu nodded.
Chu Ning did not know what was going on, but Su Ming’s doubts told her that this was definitely not a simple business competition.
As expected, Su Ming said, “But the Su family’s original partner is not someone the Wu family can destroy. Even if we add the Yun family, it’s still not enough.’
Yun Yu didn’t dare to hide anything now. “I heard from Wu Ling that someone contacted him because that person had a huge family background. The two of them made a deal. That person helped him get on the cruise ship and complete his goal. He wanted to help that person’s subordinate get rid of someone.”
When Su Ming heard this, his eyes turned frosty. “Kill someone? He dares kill someone on the Su family’s cruise ship? Which family does he belong to? Who is he trying to get rid of? Where are his subordinates?”
Yun Yu was dazed by the continuous questions, but he still replied, “I don’t know whose family it is. I only heard from Wu Ling that they’re from Jing City. I don’t even know who his subordinates are or where they are. As for the person they want to kill…”
Yun Yu’s eyes quietly glanced at Chu Ning and then whispered, “Wu Ling said it was Chu Ning.”
When Su Ming said this, Chu Ning and Yan Shen were stunned.
“Are you sure?” Chu Ning asked under Su Ming’s complicated gaze. “Did you hear wrongly? Or was it a similar name?”
Yun Yu shook his head frantically. “I didn’t hear wrongly. I’m Wu Ling’s only biological nephew. He still wants the Yun family, so he has a lot of trust in me.
He personally said these words before me.”
Yun Yu added, “Because of this, he went to check your information immediately and said that you weren’t a difficult person. He was also curious about how you provoked the people in Jing City, making them specially send someone to deal with you.”
Yun Yu thought for a moment. He probably felt that, no matter what, he wouldn’t be in a worse state than when he didn’t say anything.
Therefore, Yun Yu simply told the truth. “It’s also because Wu Ling thinks that you’re dead meat that I dared to tease you. Because I’ve also seen your profile photo and think that you’re not bad looking, I just wanted to make myself happy before you die..”
