What's wrong with this guy?
If he really wanted to cause trouble for me, why didn't he report this to the company's higher-ups?
If he didn't want to cause trouble for me, why did he deliberately come here to express his suspicions?
Is it really like what he said? Is he just curious about what I want to do behind the scenes? That's why he came here alone to cause trouble?
No malice?
Is he just looking for fun?
This bastard's character is simply too bad!
Liu Xiaojiang sat on the small stool in front of the coffee table and looked at Wang Zhenqiu, who was asking for a beating. It was hard to determine what this bastard was thinking.
He considered the fact that Wang Zhenqiu didn't inform the company's higher-ups, nor did he tell others about these speculations. His expression was relatively calm as he said,
"Qiu 'er, you are indeed very smart. You can see that I was very dissatisfied with the way the company dealt with Chen Duo's problem.
"But you also overlooked something …"
"Oh?" Wang Zhenqiu looked at Liu Xiaojiang with interest, "Then tell me what I overlooked."
"I do sympathize with Chen Duo's experience. I even argued with the company's higher-ups because of her," Liu Xiaojiang said calmly,
"But under my efforts, hasn't her problem changed?"
"You mean …" Wang Zhenqiu habitually touched his chin,
"The company's current hope that we can capture Chen Duo alive is actually the result of your previous efforts?"
"That's right." Liu Xiaojiang nodded and said, "Everything I did for Chen Duo out of sympathy has now been repaid quite well."
"After all, the company's higher-ups' attitude towards Chen Duo's problem wasn't that they wanted us to capture Chen Duo alive. They wanted her to be responsible for Liao's death alone."
"You want to say that you've done enough and won't do anything extra for Chen Duo?" Wang Zhenqiu smiled and said,
"That's quite reasonable. Unfortunately …"
Liu Xiaojiang saw that Wang Zhenqiu still didn't believe him, so he continued to explain slowly, "I've already done enough for Chen Duo's problem.
"Regarding Chen Duo's problem, I have indeed done my best. As for what the final outcome will be, it will depend on what choice she makes."
"If she doesn't return to the company, do you really have the heart to kill her?" Wang Zhenqiu doubted.
"I agree that there should be a stable order in the world." Although Liu Xiaojiang didn't answer this question directly, the meaning expressed in his words was already very clear.
"You're actually someone who's willing to be bound by rules and regulations?" Wang Zhenqiu was clearly surprised by this.
He speculated that Liu Xiaojiang was a compassionate and emotional person. He might even do something stupid that went against the company's requirements and disregarded the safety of ordinary people because of Chen Duo's experience.
If Liu Xiaojiang really killed Chen Duo, then the previous speculations wouldn't be valid.
Liu Xiaojiang sympathized with Chen Duo's experience, but he only had a small dispute with the higher-ups about the way the company handled the situation. He didn't want to give Chen Duo real freedom, so he could only be considered a reasonable person with some sympathy.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Liu Xiaojiang to be such a person, because doing things according to rules and regulations and only agreeing with the company's philosophy without any selfishness … was simply too boring!
"Nothing can be accomplished without rules and regulations."
Liu Xiaojiang glanced at Wang Zhenqiu, who was curling his lips, and didn't know whether this bastard believed him or not.
He noticed that Wang Zhenqiu didn't refute quickly this time. It seemed that he was misled due to insufficient information. He didn't think about the fact that he planned to 'cheat', so he said,
"Speaking of which …"
"Your attitude seems to be different from mine. Thinking about how you disregarded the company's rules and planned to have fun by yourself, the feeling you give me … is just like those all-around evil people."
"Hey, maybe a little, but I'm different from them." Wang Zhenqiu smiled indifferently.
"Although I mainly do things for myself, I don't think there's anything wrong with the company's rules. Besides … my fun doesn't affect anyone."
"…" Liu Xiaojiang looked at Wang Zhenqiu and didn't say anything.
"Of course …" Wang Zhenqiu spread his hands and said, "The fun itself is a different story."
Liu Xiaojiang had said everything he needed to say. Even if Wang Zhenqiu wasn't successfully misled, there was no other way to deceive him.
He looked at Wang Zhenqiu, who was still unfathomable. He ignored this bastard's smiling face and said calmly, "That's all.
It's up to you to decide whether to believe me or not. Since the company has handed Chen Duo over to me, I naturally won't go against the company's requirements.
"You guys can go and understand the situation in the village for the next few days. Zhang Chulan and I will take care of Ma Xianhong's situation. But … it's best if you guys discuss it before taking action. After all, there are still many ordinary people and transformed Inhumans in the village."
Wang Zhenqiu knew Liu Xiaojiang was driving him away. He got up from the coffee table in disappointment, but when he looked at Liu Xiaojiang, who was still unfathomable, the corners of his mouth slowly rose.
"Liu Zhenren, are you really such a boring guy?"
"Maybe."
Liu Xiaojiang finally understood that when dealing with people like Wang Zhenqiu, he couldn't express anything too clearly. He didn't want Wang Zhenqiu to catch a loophole in the details that even he didn't notice.
"Tsk … looks like I've already missed the best opportunity."
Wang Zhenqiu noticed that Liu Xiaojiang wasn't as sure as before. He couldn't help but curl his lips in regret. Then, he turned around and walked out of the house.
But before he really left, he stood at the door and looked back into the house. He smiled again.
"Liu Zhenren, don't worry … even if you hide yourself even deeper in the future, I won't give up so easily. I'm a person who believes in intuition."
"You definitely aren't a boring guy …"
Liu Xiaojiang was speechless.
…
After a long time.
Liu Xiaojiang sat alone in front of the coffee table in the house. He recalled the conversation between himself and Wang Zhenqiu. The calmness and calmness on his face had long disappeared. A rare solemn and gloomy expression gradually emerged.
He realized that after coming down from Mount Longhu, perhaps because he had been living a good life for too long, he always subconsciously thought that other than Celestial Master, there was nothing to be afraid of in this world. There was also no reason for the young mutants to plot against him.
In the end, Wang Zhenqiu really taught him a lesson.
His current strength was indeed comparable to very few people, but his special inhuman condition still hadn't changed. It was still a relatively dangerous situation to be noticed by others.
During this period of time, because of his advantage in strength, methods, and information, he took everything for granted. He even ignored the small probability that others might notice him.
No matter how small this probability was, it was still clearly there.
"Forget about the old ones, the young ones are also so difficult to deal with. Fine … you guys are good, I'll change."
