It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

They have all witnessed Mr. Xu's methods, and the possibility of tolerating them is very low.

If I had known this earlier, I would have changed my allegiance in advance.

A single misstep can lead to everlasting regret, and aren't they no different?

……

"So, Master, you are forcing Lin Wenhua to betray, right?"

On the other hand, after the meeting, Su Lin returned to the office and looked at Xu Shi and asked.

"That's not an accurate term, my Miss Sulin."

Xu Shi shook his index finger. "The old man has never been loyal to me, so what's the point of talking about betrayal?"

"Of course, it's true that we should push him. It's been delayed for so long, so we should finally go for it, right?"

To be honest, from the perspective of face, his previous "warning" to Lin Wenhua in the meeting was actually not very painful - he randomly selected a few of the other party's confidants to attack, and gave them a verbal warning. This was not only a serious blow, but also did not hurt a single hair.

But listening to what is said is important, and attitude is the most important thing. Given Lin Wenhua's rank, he shouldn't be complacent about having escaped a disaster, right? I guess the old man has already started thinking about what to do next.

"For example, take the newly released chip data and go to Long Tianding to discuss terms or something."

Anyway, I have restricted him in which way to go. "Dragon City" is the only relatively good choice. However, it is not ruled out that Lin Wenhua might make other choices on a whim. But if that happens, it will be much easier. It will be easier to deal with him.

"I think it's not just the chips. Lin Wenhua has been in business for so long, he must have some other confidential data in the company."

Su Lin understood what he meant, but she couldn't help but have some concerns, "If these are really leaked out, then... "

"It doesn't have much impact. If I remember correctly, it's just some armed data from two or three generations ago?"

Xu Shi was not worried. "We have the latest part in our hands anyway. Besides, Lin Wenhua is not stupid. He will not hand over everything at once."

"I'm glad you considered it."

Su Lin didn't comment. "But I still think it would be better for me to just...get rid of it all, right?"

She made a gesture of wiping her neck.

"Isn't it easy to kill him? Keeping him alive until now must be useful, right?"

Xu Shi smiled and said, "First, I want to use Lin Wenhua to test Long Tianding's attitude. Second, I want to use him to lure out another person."

"...That's right, I didn't think it through."

Su Lin thought about it and knew that he was talking about Shen Qin - from her point of view, if Lin Wenhua really had second thoughts and betrayed her and left, it would more or less be an opportunity. It just depended on whether she was willing to seize it.

But even so, Director Su always had a feeling that even if these three joined together, they could not defeat the young master... But then he changed his mind and thought that if that was really the case, then if he could take them down together, then it would be a good thing to kill three birds with one stone.

They would even pack themselves up so that they could be cut cleanly with a sickle at any time.

"Have you figured it out? It seems you still understand me."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be the easiest to catch everything in one go? I'm most afraid of trouble."

"Of course, this is also my little bad taste."

He then added, "It's very interesting to see these people trying their best even though they know the hope is slim."

"Especially when you fail after trying your best, that would be even more interesting."

It's so boring to beat someone to death with a stick. It's more fun to torture them slowly... Xu Shi always felt that his villain thinking was becoming more and more ingrained. Oh, that's me. It's okay then.

"...You are really bad."

Su Lin sighed. She was quite familiar with the young master's bad taste. Wasn't the "Spark" played with by him in the past? It's just that the plate is bigger now, and the profit to be grabbed will be more, and the corresponding sense of accomplishment will be greater, right?

"It's not a good habit to complain about your boss so blatantly."

Xu pretended to give her a cold look and said, "Your salary is not enough to deduct."

"So Master is going to fire me?"

Su Lin didn't care about this kind of harmless threat, and even dared to refute him.

"So the master wants you to move."

Xu Shi's eyes suddenly became serious. "Give orders and say that the second-generation chip will be launched on the market soon, but don't actually launch it. Just make it look good."

"I understand."

Of course Su Lin knew that this was Xu Shi's secret means of urging Lin Wenhua to take action, but in fact it didn't make much difference whether it was really launched or not... Was this considering the promise made to Xie Qingyan before, so that the other party's "sublimation" could open up the market more smoothly?

"You have to keep your word sometimes."

Xu Shi nodded slightly. He couldn't make enemies with everyone. That would be too tiring for him. Especially considering Xie Qingyan's importance and his previous goodwill, he had already stopped putting him on the blacklist. Naturally, there was no need to go back on his promise.

"Even those people you were asked to keep an eye on before, you can't relax. A big storm is coming."

He took a deep breath and said, "Oh, I still have to look for Little Black Rabbit... By the way, wasn't she present at the previous conference? Where did she go?"

"Should he have gone to Director Wen's place?"

Su Lin thought for a moment and replied, "During the time you were away, she would go to the Feather Pen every now and then."

"…Then just go there and pick her up."

Xu Shi also remembered that he had told Gu Yi before that she should go to "Feather Pen" to learn more when she has time. It seems that she really listened to him. It turns out that she is a teachable person.

"Yes, I'll go get the car ready for you."

……

While Xu Shi was heading to the "Feather Pen", Lin Wenhua had also secretly arrived in Sin City and met Long Tianding in person.

“…Why do I feel like I’m dreaming?”

After hearing his intention, Long Tianding felt like laughing for some reason. "The famous Mr. Lin, the pillar of the Snake Ring, would come to me with company secrets one day?"

Or maybe he was more surprised by Xu Shi's foresight. He had warned him before that someone from the Snake Ring might escape to his place... Maybe Xu Shi had already arranged it? Otherwise, why didn't Lin Wenhua find someone else? Right?

"I hope that Lord Long is not making fun of me. That little bastard Xu Shi has already shit and peed on my head."

Lin Wenhua was a little unhappy when he heard this. These polite words of praise now sounded harsh to his ears...

"I have brought the conditions, and I hope City Lord Long can consider them carefully."

But he didn't dwell on it too much and got straight to the point.

"yes……"

Long Tianding did not comment, but he needed to think about it carefully.

To be honest, this is also a difficult problem. If it were just Xu Shi and Lin Wenhua, then there would actually be nothing worth considering.

but.

It turned out that Lin Wenhua was not the only one who came to see him.

"...Mr. Lin? It seems we have the same idea?"

As he was talking, another person also showed up.

"you……"

Seeing that it was her, Lin Wenhua was also stunned, "Nan Qian?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 153 No, what are you doing? ! (Angry)

Lin Wenhua was indeed a little surprised.

He really didn't expect that besides himself, someone else had already found Long Tianding.

As for why this former one of the three leaders of the "Forsaken" is also here, could it be...

"As you can see."

Shen Qin did not hide it, "My purpose of coming to see City Lord Long is similar to yours, Elder Lin?"

"...Miss Nan is also friends with City Lord Long?"

Lin Wenhua rolled his eyes, but chose to perfunctorily answer the question, "I came to see City Lord Long just to meet an old friend, but I haven't heard that among the people he knows well, there is someone like you."

To be honest, although Shen Qin was happy to see the sincerity, he could not completely trust the other party.

It would be better to say that he could not trust these foreign "forgotten ones" 100% - whether he looked down on this group of people or not was another matter, and their attitude was not clear either, right?

Especially from his perspective, what kind of feud could there be between Shen Qin, or "Nan Qian" and Xu Shi? On the contrary, in his eyes, after Xia Wuyou was promoted to the head of the field department, Shen Qin, as her deputy, was also promoted from deputy to full-time. She was thinking about turning against him just after being promoted? It always made him a little worried.

"Mr. Lin, there's no need to be so secretive. You won't suspect that I'm Xu Shi's spy, right?"

Seeing his expression, Shen Qin just smiled disdainfully, "The truth is that we, the Forgotten, have long hated Xu Shi, and have always wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible."

She didn't doubt Lin Wenhua.

Ever since she first heard about the conflict between the other party and Xu Shijian, she had been thinking about it. She had been conducting an in-depth investigation during this period and had finally figured out the cause and effect.

The two will fight to the death!

This was definitely good news for her - to be honest, since she moved into the Night Crime City, it had been difficult for her to find someone like Lin Wenhua who shared the same motive as her to bring down Xu Shi.

Most people are flocking to him and are trying to curry his favor, so why would they go against him?

Of course, there are opponents, but unfortunately, nine out of ten of them are cowards who have the desire but not the courage to do evil.

Therefore, people like Lin Wenhua are very rare, and she is not worried that this is Xu Shi’s plan.

After all, this contest had already started several years ago, but it has only been thoroughly intensified now. Investigations from all parties have also shown that this is not a joint effort between the two.

So after experiencing the commendation meeting, she immediately realized that it was time to act - the saying "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" also applies to her, so even if the starting points are different, as long as the goals are the same, it is necessary to form an alliance.

Funny enough, after careful analysis, Shen Qin also found that the only external aid he could find was "Longcheng", so he and Lin Wenhua simultaneously went to Long Tianding, hoping to combine the two forces into one.

As for Lin Wenhua's distrust of her, having said that, she knew that the other party should be able to figure it out easily, and she was also sincere.

Lin Wenhua was not stupid after all, and he quickly realized that it seemed to be true.

Because what Miss Nan Qian said was true, the "Forgotten Ones" definitely did not have a good impression of Xu Shi.

For ordinary people, the one ton of "Rust Mist" ore needed to enter the Night Sin City is not easy to obtain. If Xu Shi had not repeatedly persuaded them, the conditions might not have been so harsh.

But even if they get in, what will happen? The fact is that no matter where they are, the "forgotten" are still viewed with tinted glasses - this is inseparable from the long-lasting smear reports, which make them inherently inferior to others. They really work more than others but get less than others, and their lives are not necessarily comfortable.
