The villainous second male lead at the beginning? No! He's the white moonlight!

The next day, in a high-end coffee shop in Tokyo, Ye Linyuan looked at Mitsui Sakura with a smile on his face.

"Why were you in such a hurry to find me? Did you succeed?"

"Yes, Mr. Ye, here are all the confidential documents of the Mitsui Group. Please check them."

As she spoke, Mitsui Sakura pulled a milky-scented USB drive from a crevice in her storage compartment and handed it to Ye Linyuan. She then recounted the dramatic and thrilling process of how they stole the confidential documents.

Mitsui Sakura originally thought that Ye Linyuan would show a happy expression after receiving the USB drive, but to her surprise, Ye Linyuan did not put the USB drive away. Instead, he casually threw it into the coffee cup, which made Mitsui Sakura's beautiful eyes widen and her face look incredulous.

"Mr. Ye, you..."

"It's nothing, we just don't need it now."

Ye Linyuan said with a smile, and casually poured the coffee into the trash can next to him.

In fact, the Mitsui Group alone is now completely powerless to play any role in this game.

To have any influence in this power struggle between nations, one needs to be at least on par with the Mitsubishi Group.

Moreover, the reason he asked Mitsui Sakura and the others to find a way to steal the so-called confidential documents of the Mitsui Group was simply to test whether they were sincere, nothing more.

He already had access to all sorts of confidential documents from the Mitsui Group, and they would be even more detailed than what Mitsui Sakura had given him.

In addition, it was also because although Mitsui Takeichiro was a complete waste, Ye Linyuan did not believe that Mitsui Takeichiro would have any confidential files on his computer.

If Mitsui Takeichiro had any sense at all, he would never have so openly left confidential documents on the computer in his study.

Most of these so-called classified documents are just erroneous information; the real classified documents are definitely hidden in a secret room or some other place.

"Alright, Miss Sakura, now you should leave the Mitsui family and wait for your opportunity. It won't be long before you're able to take control of the Mitsui family."

"As for your mother, I have already made arrangements. She will take a private plane to the hospital in China today, and I will cover all the expenses, so you can rest assured."

After saying that, in front of Mitsui Sakura, Ye Linyuan picked up his phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, is this the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office? I'm reporting the Mitsui Group for alleged tax evasion, bribery, illegal transactions, and even treason. I've already sent the evidence to your email. Yes, my name is Masao Uesugi, I'm a concerned citizen. You're welcome, it's what I should do."

Seeing Ye Linyuan directly pin the blame on Uesugi Masao, the president of the Uesugi Group, Mitsui Sakura was a little taken aback.

"Mr. Ye, please forgive my ignorance, but the evidence you just presented regarding the Mitsui Group's tax evasion, bribery, and illegal transactions..."

"That's why I said this thing is useless, because I obtained a lot of evidence about the Mitsui Group's crimes from other people's intelligence."

Ye Linyuan smiled and stood up, waving to Mitsui Sakura.

"Alright, Miss Sakura, just do as I said. Take your three younger sisters to the address I gave you and stay there for a while, then wait for my notification."

"Hi!"

Half an hour later, in the president's office of the Uesugi Foundation, Asuka Uesugi, who had just become the nominal head of the Uesugi Foundation, was looking at documents with an uncertain expression.

Although she already knew that the Uesugi Group had been essentially shorted by the Mitsui Group, she still didn't expect that, apart from herself as the nominal controller, the Uesugi Group really had no trace of the Uesugi family left.

Now, his own brother, Masao Uesugi, has brought in the Mitsubishi Group, causing the entire Uesugi Group to fall into complete chaos!

Just then, the door to the president's office was pushed open, and Ye Linyuan walked in with his hands in his pockets.

The moment she saw Ye Linyuan, Uesugi Asuka instinctively stood up, her face revealing obvious nervousness.

"Mr. Ye, what brings you here?"

"I just came to see how my chosen spokesperson is doing."

Ye Linyuan sat down in the chair representing the president of the Uesugi Group without any hesitation. Uesugi Asuka, who should have been the nominal president of the Uesugi Group, stood opposite Ye Linyuan like a schoolchild who had made a mistake, with her head down and not daring to speak.

"Alright, stop putting on that pitiful act. As the saying goes, a kind heart doesn't govern an army, and a benevolent heart doesn't manage finances. I won't be soft-hearted towards you just because you look like this."

Ye Linyuan looked at Uesugi Asuka, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Besides, you're at least a beauty, and I, Ye Linyuan, am at least a man. Your pitiful appearance is very likely to arouse my desire, understand?"

As Ye Linyuan finished speaking, Uesugi Asuka stiffened, forcibly suppressing her ever-present pitiful expression, and quietly waited for Ye Linyuan to continue.

"That's more like it. Alright, I'm not here to interrogate you. I'm asking you, did you kick your brother, Uesugi Masao, out?"

"Yes, Mr. Ye. My brother conspired with Kosaburo Mitsubishi to bring down the Uesugi Zaibatsu. Because of this, I had no choice but to kick him out."

"Very good, but not enough."

Ye Linyuan's words made Uesugi Asuka's face darken.

The worst has happened; they're going to completely wipe out Uesugi Masao!

"Of course, you can choose not to do it. But if you don't do it, I'll find someone else to do it. However, at that time, the president of the Uesugi Group may not necessarily be you, and the Uesugi family may not necessarily exist."

"After all, there are plenty of people who would want to be my dog, like Mitsui."

As Ye Linyuan finished speaking, the entire president's office fell silent for a full minute!

A minute later, Uesugi Asuka raised her head, her eyes hardening.

"I'll do it."

Ye Linyuan laughed; it seemed the system's evaluation of her was a bit too low.

"Great, I'll wait for your good news."

After saying that, Ye Linyuan got up and prepared to leave, but just as he reached the door, he turned back and looked at Uesugi Asuka, whose expression was uncertain.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing."

Upon hearing Ye Linyuan's "and also," Uesugi Asuka immediately stood up straight, bowed to Ye Linyuan, and spoke.

"Please speak."

"You don't need to worry about Mitsubishi. Just focus on the Uesugi Group. Remember, don't make any unnecessary moves, understand?"

"Yes! Got it!"

"Okay, then that's settled."
