After the divorce, the aloof CEO begged me not to withdraw my investment.

On the other side, Ye Feng and Wu Dan were led into a conference room.

The conference room was filled with smoke and the atmosphere was heavy. The long conference table was already full of people, each with a serious expression.

"Oh, it's an honor to have you two here."

A burly man with a face full of scars said in a sarcastic tone, glancing sideways at Ye Feng and Wu Dan.

Ye Feng ignored his provocation, looked around, pulled out a chair, and gestured for Wu Dan to sit down.

Wu Dan was a little nervous. He secretly tugged at Ye Feng's sleeve and whispered, "Brother Feng, here..."

Ye Feng patted his hand to reassure him.

"Hey, hey, who gave you permission to sit here?" The man who had spoken earlier slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and pointed at Ye Feng and Wu Dan. "What kind of place is this? The Ministry of State Security! Do you think this is a place where you can just sit wherever you want?"

His loud voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The meeting room fell silent instantly, and the atmosphere became even more tense.

Everyone stared at Ye Feng and Wu Dan, their eyes filled with hostility.

Wu Dan shuddered in fright and instinctively tried to stand up.

Ye Feng held him down, his gaze calmly meeting the man's.

He looked around, and finally his gaze settled on the man with a face full of scars.

"Before Team Leader Wu even spoke, someone was already giving the order for her?"

Chen Yiyi's expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously glanced at Wu Feifei.

Wu Feifei remained expressionless, though a hint of amusement flashed in her eyes.

The man's face turned red, as if he had been slapped hard.

"What do you mean? I just can't stand your attitude..."

He stammered, unable to find the right words to refute.

"What do you dislike about us?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, his tone growing colder. "You don't want us to sit down? Doesn't the Security Department have chairs? Or are these chairs only for certain people?"

"That was not what I meant…"

Sweat beaded on the man's forehead. He felt Ye Feng's gaze was like a knife, scraping him painfully.

"So what do you mean?" Ye Feng pressed on. "As I see it, they're Team Leader Wu's subordinates, and their management is questionable." He paused, his tone disdainful. "My men wouldn't be so unruly."

The man lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Ye Feng again.

He regretted his impulsive actions. Had he known the other party was so formidable, he shouldn't have stepped forward.

Ye Feng ignored him and turned to Wu Feifei, speaking calmly.

“Team Leader Wu, Wu Dan and I were personally invited to join us. As your subordinates, even if we have different opinions, we should only obey orders.”

He paused, his gaze sweeping over everyone in the conference room, his tone becoming sharp.

“If they don’t even have this much execution ability, there’s no point in forming this task force.”

The entire room was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was stunned by Ye Feng's imposing presence, including Chen Yiyi.

The man who had started the argument sat down silently, looking dejected like a wilted eggplant.

Wu Feifei looked at Ye Feng, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

She originally just wanted to take this opportunity to test Ye Feng's abilities, but she didn't expect him to be so powerful and to take control of the situation so easily.

She began to get to know the man in front of her in a new light.

Suddenly, a girl broke the silence.

"Anyone can talk a good game," she said dismissively, arms crossed. "Talk about obeying orders and having good execution skills, but what exactly do you have that makes you qualified to join the Security Department?"

The atmosphere in the meeting room became tense again.

Wu Feifei observed Ye Feng discreetly, wanting to see how he would respond.

Chen Yiyi also looked at him, her eyes filled with worry.

Ye Feng did not answer directly, but turned to look at Chen Yiyi.

Chen Yiyi met Ye Feng's gaze, hesitated slightly, and said, "Wu Dan is a top-notch hacker, and his skills are beyond doubt."

"Find someone from outside?" another man questioned. "Aren't the talents trained by our own security department enough?"

Chen Yiyi said firmly, "If any of you here can break through my defense system in three minutes, I will immediately leave the action group and give my position to him."

A low gasp of surprise rippled through the conference room.

three minutes?

This is an almost impossible task.

Even though they knew something about Chen Yiyi's abilities, they also knew that she wouldn't make such a boast easily.

Chen Yiyi's words temporarily silenced everyone's doubts, but the girl clearly had no intention of giving up. She turned her attention back to Ye Feng: "What about him? What are his skills?"

Ye Feng's lips curled up slightly, his tone playful: "I'm Wu Dan's bodyguard."

Everyone was stunned.

bodyguard?

The man who had previously launched the attack found a new point of attack: "Security work should be the responsibility of our security department; we don't need to hire outside personnel."

Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, his tone teasing: "The Ministry of State Security? I see only weak scholars here, who can they protect?"

Ye Feng's words made Chen Yiyi feel a little embarrassed.

The girl seized the opportunity and immediately said, "We have plenty of retired special forces soldiers here; they'd be more than enough to deal with one of your bodyguards."

Ye Feng recalled the burly man he had easily taken down before and asked, "Are you talking about that big guy?"

The girl was very unhappy with Ye Feng's contemptuous tone.

Just then, a burly man walked in.

The girl, as if she had found a savior, immediately said with a boastful tone, "Brother Biao, this new guy is too arrogant. Why don't you challenge him and let him know how powerful the Security Department is?"

The man called A-Biao replied, "No need, we've already sparred."

The girl, looking smug, turned to him and asked, "How was it? Did you beat him to a pulp?"

Ah Biao looked at Ye Feng with admiration and said, "I was reckless before. Mr. Ye is truly amazing. I will ask you for guidance when I have the chance."

The entire audience was shocked, especially the girl, who never expected Ye Feng to make Brother Biao back down.

She looked at Ye Feng in disbelief, then at Abiao, her mouth opening and closing, but she couldn't say anything.

Ye Feng disliked associating with petty people, but although A Biao had caused trouble before, he could tell that the other party had no ill intentions and was just being proud of his kind.

He had a good impression of Abiao.

"You're also very capable, with a solid foundation." Ye Feng's tone was calm, without any condescension.

Ah Biao scratched his head and smiled sheepishly: "If I can't beat you, I can't beat you. Mr. Ye is really strong. After I practice for a while longer, I will definitely ask you for advice again."

His admiration for Ye Feng grew even stronger.

Ye Feng nodded: "You're welcome anytime."

The young people present, especially those who had previously been skeptical of Ye Feng, were all surprised by his strength, especially after learning that he had defeated Biao Ge, the third-place winner of the martial arts competition.

They began to re-examine this seemingly unremarkable man.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Chen Yiyi cleared her throat: "Now that the two newcomers have joined, let's start with a self-introduction."
