Rebirth: Once Again With You
Meanwhile, within Ye Wang's building.
Ye Huizhong threw the newspaper in his hand irritatedly before giving a deathly glare to a tall and bald man standing in front of his desk. One could tell he was extremely furious.
"It's almost a day, and you still can't catch the culprit? What have you been doing all this time?!" Ye Huizhong berated his subordinate.
The bald man appeared flustered but tried his best to remain calm. Sweats rolled down from his temple as he kept both hands behind his back.
"I'm sorry, Boss. Those people lurked around our bar and attacked when we least expected it. We tried to chase them, but the one we captured had tight lips. He insisted he was only following order and knew nothing about the one behind him."
"Then torture him harder! We can't let a person who smuggled illegal things into our bar run free! You guys keep getting useless and useless these days. If it weren't for Zhiqiang's quick thinking, we wouldn't even get our hands on any of them!"
The bald man's head lowered even more at the mention of Dai Zhiqiang. He felt aggrieved by his boss's accusation but couldn't help but admit that they might not have gotten a lead if it weren't for that newbie. The least they could do was to extort information as much as possible from the one captured.
He didn't like that brat, but at least he was more helpful than other newbies.
"We are very sorry for disappointing you, Boss. We will try harder to find the culprit as soon as possible."
"Leave! Just leave now! Having you here only increases my blood pressure. I don't need useless people under my roof, so you better do your job properly!"
"Yes, Boss. Then, if you'll excuse me." The bald man bowed slightly before turning around, ready to dash out of the room if not for his remaining pride.
"Wait a minute."
Ye Huizhong's following sentence made his step come to a halt. The bald man groaned inwardly while maintaining his neutral expression. He turned around again to face his boss, resigning himself to fate.
"Yes, Boss? Is there anything else you need?"
"How is Zhiqiang's condition right now?" Ye Huizhong asked in a milder voice, making the bald man feel relieved.
"He is still recuperating and still hasn't regained his consciousness yet. The slash wound on his abdomen was pretty deep, and he lost too much blood. The doctor said he would need a week of full rest before he can slowly start to move his body again."
"I see." Ye Huizhong folded his fingers together. Although his expression was still as fierce as usual, a hint of uncertainty swirled in his eyes.
"Do you think I made a wrong decision by adding that boy to our group? He is still young, after all."
"Yes?" The bald man exclaimed unconsciously. He had been working for Ye Group for ten years, but this might be the first time he heard the fearsome Ye Huizhong showed hesitance.
He was aware of the story behind how that newbie got picked up by the boss. Still, everyone believed it was mainly because the boss didn't like to owe people anything. No one would dare to imagine their boss having a soft spot for that cheeky and reclusive brat.
But this wasn't the time for that. The bald man had to choose his words carefully if he didn't want to be on the receiving end of his boss's wrath again.
"Dai Zhiqiang is still new and young, but he is more mature than most adults here. I'm certain he was already prepared for what he would go through once he stepped through our front gate."
"Hmm…" Ye Huizhong hummed vaguely, expressing neither agreement nor denial.
The bald man felt that those words were still not enough, so he added, "You have been treating him magnanimously so far, Boss. You even called for the private doctor and gave him the best treatment. It's only right for him to show his worth to you."
Even men working in underworld business have their own code, and that was to know how to repay someone, whether it was in bad or good meaning. To be picked up and received the boss' gracious support, that brat naturally should show his usefulness to the boss as the form of his gratitude, just like everyone else in the group.
The bald man didn't see any fault in his logic, but the crease on Ye Huizhong's face told him otherwise. No one could stop the boss when he was pissed, so the bald man gulped nervously as he awaited his following sentence.
"You are right. I'm getting older each passing day. To think I would let my emotions get the best of me…." Ye Huizhong sighed.
The bald man didn't sense any hint of reprimand coming his way, so he became courageous and asked him, "Boss, what do you mean by that?"
"That boy, he reminded me of my late son sometimes. His stubbornness and rebellious personality are so much like when my son was young. That's why I can't help but worry about him sometimes. My brain became muddled because of my old age."
The bald man noticed how the boss sounded melancholic when he said that. He respectfully lowered his head to give the boss the privacy of reminiscing.
No one in the group will ever forget the tragedy that befell the previous Master of Ye Wang five years ago. That accident took the previous Master and Madam, also cost their boss his left ear.
If it weren't for the boss' sacrifice, the Young Master probably wouldn't have survived either. The accident took Young Master's parents forever, and that was why the boss was very doting toward his grandson.
The bald man could still vividly recall how a fearsome and robust person like Ye Huizhong shed his tears for the first time as he looked at the burning building in front of him. It was a painful memory for everyone in the group.
However, Ye Huizhong was as resilient and tough as a mountain. Thanks to his effort and life experience, the groups could pick their remaining pieces together and become even more flourished than before. His way became more ruthless than before, but the bald man could understand him, considering what he had been through.
A moment of weakness could cost you the life of your previous ones. Those who weren't prepared to become ruthless had no place in this group.
That included Dai Zhiqiang as well.
Ye Huizhong stood up from his seat, causing the bald man to raise his head. "Boss, are you going somewhere?"
"It's about time I checked on that brat's condition. He is still young, yet already so reckless. I can't imagine what he would turn into in the future. Reckless men are unpopular with women. I bet all my fortune he would stay single for a long time."
He complained, but why did the bald man feel that he also sounded a bit proud when he said that? It seemed the boss really got softened when it came to that brat.. He didn't know if this change was good or not.
Chapter 193: An Attack (1)
