As soon as Zhao Fangxu said that, the room suddenly fell into silence.
Su Cheng looked at the solemn Zhao Fangxu and shook his head. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
"Chairman Zhao, are you threatening us, or did he reveal such an idea..."
"This is my reminder to you," Zhao Fangxu said.
"He is still a young man after all. Even if his thoughts and actions are mature, in the end... he is still a young man."
"If, according to your thoughts, he has an ulterior motive for everything he does, then he is definitely not a selfless guy. He might even be the complete opposite..."
"A powerful and selfish young man..."
At this point..,
He looked up at Su Cheng, who was smoking opposite him. "If he knows that what he has done and what he has done recently is in vain, and that he can't even exchange for our trust, what do you think he will do next?"
"Besides, even if he doesn't notice this and has been working hard without complaint, in the end, when he finds out that we are going to kill the donkey after it has outlived its usefulness, do you think any young man will not be driven crazy?"
"Once a mutant with such strength loses his mind, do you know... how much impact this will have on society?"
"Heh, yes. Strictly speaking, we are not afraid of the mutant group because no matter how strong their individual strength is, it is impossible for them to compare to our collective wisdom..."
"So, what do you think we should do? Should we ignore the price and personally eliminate this young man who has been driven crazy by us?"
"Little Su, even if we ignore the consequences and price, don't you think that doing this is unfair to him... to those who might be affected?"
"Because there is no other way..." Su Cheng put out the cigarette in the ashtray.
"We don't know his identity and background, and we don't know what he wants. But I think the reason why he pretended to be a saint is at least that kind of trivial matter."
"If we delay this problem, if his goal is enough to subvert everything, then... the losses we will have to bear will only be greater than the losses of eliminating him."
"With Chen Duo and Er Zhuang, the possibility of this happening is infinitely close to zero..." Zhao Fangxu shook his head.
"If he really wants to subvert everything, he has no reason to join the company, let alone go abroad to fulfill your long-cherished wish."
"After all, we're on the side of social stability and ordinary people. Even if we trust him, we can't just sit by and watch him do whatever he wants. Besides, compared to us … he's on the side of the Inhumans, and he's more likely to gain the support of many people."
"If he really is what you think he is, then he shouldn't have joined the company in the first place. It's even more impossible for him to work for us as hard as he is now …"
Su Cheng interrupted with a smile, "Chairman Zhao, as a director of the company, you should listen to the orders of the higher-ups …"
"Don't try to use that to pressure me!" Zhao Fangxu narrowed his eyes, which was a rare sight. There was even obvious anger in his tone.
"Su Cheng, although I rarely come into direct contact with the higher-ups, I am still the main person in charge of Inhuman affairs. Don't think that I don't know the attitude of those leaders."
"Hmph, I might not know about the others, but at least Number One and Number Two … would never kill the goose that lays the golden eggs!"
"Times have changed …" Su Cheng smiled and shook his head, not minding this at all.
"Times have changed!" Zhao Fangxu said.
"But no matter how times have changed, at least their attitude towards the Inhumans shouldn't change anymore."
"Because at this stage, whether it's to completely solve the problem of the Inhumans or to change the living environment of the Inhumans on the edge of society, it's tantamount to actively destroying the stability of social order. Those two leaders will only know the current reality better than I do."
"Although Liu Xiaojiang can't be trusted completely, his recent actions can at least prove that he is a trustworthy person!"
"If it's those two leaders, I believe that when they face such a problem, they will definitely prioritize what Liu Xiaojiang has done, and not what potential risks he has!"
At this point..,
Zhao Fangxu took off his glasses. As he wiped the lenses, he said to himself,
"Little Su, I know that you came to the capital a few years ago from the Huangpu River. There are some things that I don't want to and don't dare to say, but since you've already come to the capital, I think you … better give up on contacting some people."
After saying that, he put on his glasses again and looked at Su Cheng opposite him, saying,
"Alright, go back and report. If you're here on behalf of those people, I have nothing to say to you. But if you're sent by those two old leaders to understand my attitude towards Liu Xiaojiang, then I'll have to trouble you to tell the two leaders when you go back …"
"Liu Xiaojiang doesn't have any problems at the moment. At least, he's trustworthy to me. If anything happens in the future … I'll take responsibility."
Hearing this,
Su Cheng didn't say anything. He just reached out to pick up the teacup on the table and drank the cold tea in one gulp. Then, he stood up and walked towards the door of the lounge.
"Chairman Zhao, you old people are too kind. If something really happens in the future, everything … might be too late."
"However, I already understand what you mean. I will also convey your words to the two leaders …"
Hearing these two sentences,
After Su Cheng left, Zhao Fangxu couldn't help but turn his head to look at the door and slowly frown.
This Su Cheng always seemed to be a little unexpected. Moreover, he was clearly sent by the two old leaders, but there was a huge difference in his attitude towards things.
This wasn't a good sign …

The next day,
Capital International Airport.
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Wuyue with a surprised expression, as well as An Pei and Ta Zhen, who came to send Wuyue off, and his grandson, who was obviously still in high school.
Although he was curious as to why Wu Yue was so insistent on following him, the current scene was obviously more interesting, especially when the two from the An Pei family looked at Wu Yue with genuine affection, and the complicated and unnatural look that Wu Yue had when she looked at them.
Heh, what a sinful woman, how much had she been deceived by the grandfather and grandson …
"Mr. Ta Zhen, you … should go back. The An Pei family will be busy during this period of time. Don't delay your business because of an outsider like me."
Wuyue saw that the plane was about to take off, and no matter how unnatural she was, she still took the initiative to say goodbye to the two of them. When she spoke, her tone was not a thousand miles away, but more or less, it was somewhat unnatural.
"Shi 'zi, you won't be coming back?" Even though An Pei knew Wuyue's real name, he was still willing to call her by her previous pseudonym.
"Yes, I shouldn't be coming back." Wuyue didn't intend to hide this and directly nodded in acknowledgment of her departure.
In the end,
Wuyue was still a normal human. Even if she was in a completely different position, and even if she was in a completely opposite camp, she couldn't completely ignore An Pei's kindness in the past.
If she didn't have a legitimate reason to convince herself, perhaps she would also feel extremely guilty towards An Pei's family …
But even if she had a legitimate reason, she still seemed to feel guilty towards An Pei's family, but this guilt was far from enough to affect any of her decisions.
"… Is that so?" Upon hearing Wuyue's answer, a trace of reluctance flashed in An Pei's eyes.
No matter what, Wuyue had stayed in An Pei's family for more than ten years and could be considered as a child that he had watched grow up. Even if something tantamount to betrayal happened in the past, he still subconsciously felt reluctant to see her leave.
But in the end, he forced a smile on his old face and looked at his granddaughter, Wuyue, who was about to leave and never come back.
"Well, it's time for you to go back to your real home. After all, we're not your real family, and it's hard for us to give you a true sense of belonging. This is good … good …"
"I'll remember you …" Wuyue looked at the dejected old man and finally shook her head with a sigh. She took the initiative to hug the old man.
"Although we're in different camps and have different thoughts in our hearts, you've taken care of me from the bottom of your heart all these years. Even if Shi 'zi leaves, I'll always remember it in my heart."
"Mr. Ta Zhen, you're Shi 'zi's only family in this land …"
"Sigh …" An Pei's eyes were a little red. He looked at Wuyue and obviously had a lot to say, but in the end, it turned into a deep sigh.
At this moment..,
The boy in the high school uniform behind An Pei took the initiative to walk forward with a smile on his face. He stretched out his right hand in front of Wuyue and said,
"Sister Shi 'zi, no matter what you've done, you haven't hurt us. You know … I'm not interested in the marriage contract set up by Grandpa and the others. I've always treated you as my biological sister."
"Sister Shi 'zi, thank you for taking care of me since I was young …"
Hearing this..,
Wuyue looked at the boy in front of her, but she didn't choose to shake his hand. Instead, she smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying,
"Junsuke, even if you don't like Yin-Yang magic and don't want to become a Yin-Yang Master, you still have the high hopes of the An Pei family. In the future … remember to be more considerate of your family."
"Yes, I understand, Sister Shi 'zi." An Pei retracted his right hand and looked at An Pei beside him. Then, he scratched his head at Wuyue in embarrassment.
Then..,
It was almost time for the plane to take off,
Wuyue once again said goodbye to An Pei and his grandson. Then, she turned around and walked to Liu Xiaojiang, who was waiting at the side.
And at this moment..,
An Pei didn't know what he was thinking, or perhaps he had read too many high school novels. He immediately put his hands by his mouth and shouted at Wuyue's back.
"Sister Shi 'zi! In the future, you must be happy with him!!! "
"…" Wuyue.
"…" Liu Xiaojiang.
"…" Abe was speechless.
