In a high-end private club, two middle-aged men clinked glasses and chatted, accompanied by several heavily made-up women.

One of the men was flattering another middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties.

"Master Wei is truly a whale in the business world. Looking at the Su family, they are nothing but small shrimps, destined to be swallowed up by you sooner or later."

This man is a successful entrepreneur in Jinling City, with a net worth of up to nine figures. Wherever he goes, he is greeted with flowers and applause.

But compared to the person in front of them, they were nothing.

"Haha, the Su family only relies on Su Changhong and Su Yingxue. The rest are just parasites, not worth mentioning!"

Chu Wei is the head of the Chu family in Jinling.

He holds a pivotal position in the entire city of Jinling. If anyone in Jinling's business circles says they don't know Chu Wei, they will be ridiculed for being low-class.

He was enjoying his drink when his phone suddenly rang in his pocket, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.

When I turned on the screen, it was Director Kang.

He immediately put on a fawning expression: "Hey, is this Director Kang?"

The man opposite him was filled with doubt upon seeing this.

Who exactly is this person that Chu Lei treats so well?

Because with his current status, he is not qualified to have access to someone who is the director of the Spirit Group.

"it's me."

"What wind blew you here?"

"Your youngest son, Chu Lei, is dead."

Upon hearing this news, Chu Wei immediately became furious.

Chu Lei had a son late in life. Although he wasn't his only son, he looked the most like him and was the one he loved the most.

He was a bit mischievous and playful on ordinary days, but what could he do when he was Chu Wei's son?

But his beloved youngest son is dead!

"What! Who is it? I'll make him regret ever being born!" Chu Wei lost control of his emotions and roared into the phone.

But the voice on the other end of the phone instantly calmed him down.

"Chu Wei, this is not something you can interfere with. I know you have many cultivators under your wing, but none of them are qualified to challenge him."

"Could...could you tell me more details?"

Chu Wei gritted his teeth, extremely unwilling.

He knew very well that he was powerful and influential in the Nanjing business district.

But in Director Kang's eyes, it was just a mosquito that could be swatted at any time.

"Chu Lei brought this upon himself. Trying to assassinate a young Innate Realm cultivator is truly overestimating his abilities."

"Don't even mention that he's the genius the bureau chief is looking for; just based on his cultivation level alone, he's someone you can't touch, do you understand?"

After hearing the phone call, Chu Wei's emotions instantly vanished.

innate……

What a despairing phrase.

Even with his resources, he could only establish a relationship with a weaker Innate Realm cultivator. It was impossible for him to fight to the death with another Innate Realm cultivator for the sake of his son.

"I...I understand."

"Good. Come to the Spirit Group. Your son provoked him. Come and apologize, and we'll let this matter rest."

"good……"

Chu Wei hung up the phone, still somewhat dazed.

Her son was murdered, and she still had to go to his house to apologize.

The so-called Chu family is nothing but a dog in front of a martial artist at the Innate Realm.

On the other side, Kang Bo had just hung up the phone when he called Ye Heng to his office.

Ye Heng looked at the slightly plump bureau chief with little interest.

It's far more interesting to chat with the Arctic outside the door than to spend time with this middle-aged man.

The figure beneath the Spirit Group's standard uniform was truly breathtaking.

"You must be Deputy Director Kang?"

"Ah...yes, it's me."

Kang Bo was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect Ye Heng to blurt out such a "high EQ" sentence.

"What do you need me for?"

Ye Heng is in a hurry to catch up with Liu Zhixian and doesn't have time for idle chatter.

"Haha, young friend Ye Heng is certainly straightforward. Well then, I'll get straight to the point."

Kang Bo chuckled awkwardly. This was the first time anyone had dared to speak to him like that since he became deputy director.

Those business tycoons, high-ranking officials, and reclusive masters all treated him with utmost respect.

"Our Spirit Group is looking for young geniuses under the age of 22. We'll discuss the details after the director returns. The compensation is substantial. Are you interested?"

That last sentence was just Campbell's polite remark.

As the largest cultivator organization backed by the government.

Who isn't desperate to get involved with them, hoping to do them a favor?

But Ye Heng's words were quickly proven wrong.

"Not interested."

Ye Heng hasn't even settled things with Su Yingxue yet, so he has no time to deal with the Spirit Group's messy affairs.

Of course, this excludes matters in the Arctic.

He thought this to himself in a very shameless way.

Who is Kang Bo? Not only did he reach the Innate Realm twenty years ago, but he is also a seasoned veteran in the officialdom; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to become the deputy director.

He could tell when Ye Heng first came in that the kid was interested in the Arctic.

After all, Ye Heng made no attempt to hide anything.

"Oh, that's a pity. I was planning to have Arctic as your liaison so we could contact each other anytime."

Campbell feigned regret.

Ye Heng immediately perked up and smiled.

"Actually, I am somewhat interested."

He never hid his interest in this area; romantic love between men and women has never been anything shameful.

A man's ability to gain a woman's love and approval is his own doing.

"Really?" Campbell pressed.

"Definitely."

"Haha, it's settled then!" Campbell laughed twice, in a very good mood.

At the same time, a message was sent asking Ye Beiyuan to come to the office.

Ye Beiyuan entered the office, standing ramrod straight at attention; her 1.7-meter height made her appear very tall and imposing.

Looking at her long legs, Ye Heng estimated in his mind how long they were, probably over 90cm, almost 1 meter.

That's an incredibly bad proportion!

"In the Arctic, Ye Heng's talent is extremely rare, and there will be many opportunities for him to contact our Spirit Group. Therefore, I plan to make you Ye Heng's personal liaison."

Ye Beiyuan raised an eyebrow and widened her eyes: "Director, this isn't the lucrative job you were just telling me about, is it?"

"What, are you not satisfied?"

She paused for a moment. To be honest, she didn't dislike the job transfer; on the contrary, she felt a little excited.

"I... am naturally willing to obey the organization's arrangements."

After saying that, she noticed that Ye Heng was staring at her legs.

I was furious again.

But since they were in the director's office, they couldn't make a scene, so they could only glare at him fiercely.

Ye Heng wasn't annoyed. He acted as if nothing had happened and silently looked away.

Campbell naturally took in their little actions but did not say anything to reprimand them.

"Knock knock knock!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Campbell glanced at his watch and roughly guessed who had arrived.

"Who?"

"Director Kang, it's me, Chu Wei."

"Come in."
