Fang Cheng felt relieved as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the grayish scene outside. In the distance, the sea and sky merged into one. At the end of the beach, a solitary white lighthouse stood in the wind and rain, like a silent sentinel. Fang Cheng stared at it, recalling the "sentinel" he had stationed at the other end of the city. It’s time to inform Xiao Shuai to take care of the aftermath. Meanwhile, in the village within Jiangbei City, inside an old and shabby house. Xiao Shuai sat at the dining table, slurping white porridge. On the table was a plate of pickled vegetables and a steamer full of steaming meat buns. Opposite him, Li Guifen listened with her head turned, a kindly smile on her face: "Why didn’t you go to the construction site to work today? And you bought meat buns, they’re so expensive. If you want to eat them, just tell Mom, I’ll buy meat to make them for you." "Mom, just enjoy your food." Xiao Shuai picked up a bun, speaking indistinctly: "Didn’t I tell you? I’m working for a big boss now, running errands for him. It has a much better future than the construction site." "From now on, you’ll eat meat buns every day. And once I’ve earned enough, I’ll take you to get your eyes treated." The smile on Li Guifen’s face faded slightly, with a hint of worry, muttering: "What kind of boss? You better not be doing anything bad..." "Mom, how could that be..." Xiao Shuai, dissatisfied, wanted to explain. At that moment, the hand holding the porridge bowl suddenly shook, nearly spilling it all over the table. Li Guifen immediately noticed and asked, "Did it get stuck? Quickly drink some porridge to ease it." Xiao Shuai hurriedly covered up, gulped down a mouthful of porridge, then stood up, looking a bit flustered, and said: "Mom, I... I need to go to the toilet for a bit..." With that, he quickly went into the inner room, closing the door behind him. "President, I’m here!" He respectfully responded in his mind. A steady voice sounded directly in his mind: "Scorpion has been killed by me. You can now pass this message to Chen Chen." Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuai was shocked to the core. It’s only been a day! The efficiency of the President’s work is incredibly high! "When contacting him, you can adopt a somewhat arrogant attitude." Fang Cheng’s voice continued to sound, "Tell him that within a week he must settle the final payment. Otherwise, let him prepare his own funeral..." "Yes! President, I understand." The Spiritual Link was severed, leaving Xiao Shuai standing there, his chest filled with a surge of passion, trembling with excitement. Although he wasn’t clear about the true identity of the high-ranking Noah Organization officer, the fact that someone like Chen Chen feared him indicated he must be an extraordinary figure! And for such a figure, the President could kill at will, as simple as slaughtering a chicken or dog! How powerful was the organization he had joined! Xiao Shuai felt vigor coursing through him, clenching his fists tightly, silently swearing. He must perform well and strive to become an official member of the organization as soon as possible, completely changing his unfortunate fate. He opened the door, returned to the main room, and said to his mother: "Mom, I’m going out to make a call." "What call is so urgent? Finish your meal first." "It’s a very important matter!" Xiao Shuai grabbed another bun, biting into it, "Oh, and I won’t be back for lunch. The boss has given me a job, and I must get it done immediately!" With that, he rushed out of the house without looking back. Li Guifen shook her head,: "This child, why has he been acting so jittery these past few days... Nevertheless, it’s good to see him so motivated." Thinking of this, a hint of relief appeared on her face.
