"Okay, okay."

"Liao Zhong from South China is dead, so his confidential information is no longer protected. Just use your phone to check. The target is a girl named Chen Duo. The company has given orders that we must find her alive or dead."

"I really like this order."

“With the temporary workers from the six regions working together on this mission, your presence has been completely exposed to the board of directors. If we are not careful, the board of directors will have an excuse to thoroughly investigate the temporary workers in the regions, or even abolish the temporary worker system altogether.”

"A group chat has been set up for you on the satellite phones to facilitate communication during missions."

"Remember, do as Xiaoyuan said: try your best to bring people from the other five regions to the same side and demonstrate your effectiveness. Prove that you are controllable and harmless, understand?"

Dou Le lowered his voice very low, as if he were talking in secret.

"Is Xiaoyuan with you?"

"No. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's nothing, I just have something I need to discuss with him. This has nothing to do with you, you can get ready and leave..."

Dou Le sighed, clearly this matter was causing him great distress.

"It has nothing to do with me?" Xiao Zizai was about to ask for details when his phone started ringing.

Xiao Zizai frowned, but out of trust in Dou Le, he refrained from getting angry.

Xiaoyuan is a child they raised themselves, how could they possibly harm him?

With that thought in mind, Xiao Zizai slowly turned on his satellite phone.

Log in to WeChat.

A group chat consisting of six people is displayed on the chat interface.

Clicking on the group members, a row of soybean emojis came into view. The nicknames were also names of various regions.

Xiao Zizai chuckled. They were bound to meet sooner or later, so there was no point in hiding it. Let me speed things up.

Then I turned on my camera, took a picture of myself, and uploaded it to my WeChat profile picture. After thinking about it, I decided not to send the message.

Instead, he logged out of WeChat and began investigating the confidential files of Liao Zhong's temporary workers.

………………

The mountain road was winding and twisting, but the girl drove the car very steadily.

Xia Linyuan had dozed off without realizing it. He opened his eyes groggily and looked at Chen Duo: "Miss Chen Duo, don't you need to change people?"

"Need not."

Chen Duo shook her head slightly, looked at the road ahead and said slowly, "There's a place to rest up ahead. We'll stay there tonight."

Xia Linyuan looked ahead and saw a very simple wooden house standing abruptly by the roadside, with a figure wrapped up very tightly standing next to it.

Judging from the curves of her body, she should be a woman.

"Master Chen Duo, your resting place has been prepared for you."

The woman said very respectfully.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Chen Duo nodded slightly, then pushed open the wooden door and went inside.

Seeing the woman in black being so respectful to Chen Duo, Xia Linyuan felt a surge of curiosity and deliberately asked sarcastically, "Is Chen Duo really that high-ranking?"

"You look like a maid in an ancient costume drama."

The woman suddenly looked at Xia Linyuan, and with a snap, drew her knife: "Master Chen Duo is of superior talent! How dare you address her by her name!"

'Upper root instrument... a strange name.'

Xia Linyuan sighed softly, feigning disappointment: "So you're only at the level of a high-level talent."

"How dare you! The superior talent is so noble! How dare you look down on it!"

Enraged by Xia Linyuan, the woman in black drew her knife and slashed.

'Is he getting impatient? Is he really an extraordinary person?' Xia Linyuan dodged to the side.

He moved with ghostly steps, appearing directly behind the woman, and unleashed a powerful strike with his Great Compassion Hand!

The powerful air pressure burst forth.

With a loud bang, the woman was slammed into the ground.

Huh?

Xia Linyuan looked at his hand in confusion, feeling that the touch had been a little strange.

Looking towards the pit, one could see that the knife in the woman's hand emitted a faint light, forming a purple barrier that protected her from harm.

This knife is actually a magical artifact.

"Damn it!"

The woman shouted angrily and jumped out of the pit, knife in hand.

Xia Linyuan suppressed his surprise, golden light swirling in his palm, transforming into a tennis racket. Just as he was about to hit it...

Chen Duo gently shouted "Stop!" interrupting the woman's attack.

The woman immediately abandoned her attack.

Upon seeing this, Xia Linyuan dispelled the Golden Light Spell.

Chen Duo didn't say much, but pushed the door open a little: "The bed is made, you can lie down for a while."

Xia Linyuan slowly walked into the wooden house. The cramped space contained only a small bed: "I'll sleep here, where will you sleep?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Duo pulled the table that was lying horizontally by the window over and placed it next to the small bed, saying casually, "I'll sleep here."

"Master Chen Duo, how can this be!"

The woman in black called out urgently.

"You keep watch outside."

Chen Duo glanced at the woman and said calmly.

'This must be an order Ma Xianhong gave to Chen Duo because he was afraid I'd run away.'

Xia Linyuan thought to himself, 'But it's fine this way. If I were to sleep in the bed and Chen Duo were to sleep on the floor or outside, I would really feel bad.'

She slowly walked to the bedside and lay down.

Chen Duo also blew out the candles, and the room went dark in an instant.

He lay down on the table and slowly fell asleep.

The distance between the two people is about one person's width.

But the house was cramped, and it was late at night and quiet.

They could still hear each other breathing.

Chapter 177 Not Qualified

late at night.

Perhaps because he had taken a nap in the car, Xia Linyuan still didn't feel sleepy and took out his phone to browse the news.

Dou Le's phone number suddenly popped up on the screen.

Xia Linyuan answered immediately, without even letting his phone vibrate, and lowered his voice: "Hello, Master Dou."

"Oh my god, you scared me!"

Dou Le's voice was also very soft. Before Xia Linyuan could reply, she said, "I have something to tell you."

"Wait, someone is sleeping next to me. Wait for me to go out."

Looking at Chen Duo, who was sleeping fully clothed, Xia Linyuan gently covered himself with the blanket.

Then, he walked towards the door with ghostly steps.

Completely unaware that Chen Duo, who had been sleeping, had opened her eyes, her dark green pupils staring unblinkingly at his departing figure.

The night was quiet. The woman in black, who had been keeping watch, sat at the doorway, nodding her head slightly.

Xia Linyuan walked silently to a tree not far from the house: "Alright, what's the matter, Master Dou?"

"Ahem. This is quite serious, you should be prepared."

Dou Leqing cleared his throat, his voice sounding a little weak.

Xia Linyuan felt a sense of unease, as if someone was watching him from next to Master Dou: "Okay, I'm mentally prepared."

"Ah."

Dou Le pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath: "Xiao Yuan, you're going to be fired from the company."

This statement came out.

Both Dou Le and Xia Linyuan fell into a long silence.

The atmosphere seemed to have dropped to freezing point.
