Lu Feng had never been this idle before.
Although he was on the mountain, he was still idle.
However, there was only one old television on the mountain.
How could the visual impact of television and movies compare?
Lu Feng watched for an entire afternoon.
He felt his throat getting dry.
He slowly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Following Lin Mei's previous example, he brewed a cup of mellow coffee.
Lu Feng drank it down in one gulp.
"This tastes good!"
As his tongue registered the taste, Lu Feng's mind instantly recalled Lin Mei.
"What is this girl up to?"
Thinking this, Lu Feng reached for his phone on the cabinet beside the sofa.
He was about to call Lin Mei.
At the very least, he didn't want Lin Mei to remain so worried.
He could tell that regarding this matter,
Lin Mei was very suspicious.
Three days, a mere three days.
To make an assistant who had followed Ge Jun for at least eight years willingly leave Taitung, a place this person had long been accustomed to, a place they considered home.
Was it that easy?
Anyone hearing this would think it was a fool's dream.
And Lin Mei, this girl, carried a heavy heart.
She was also exceptionally concerned about him.
Lu Feng worried that Lin Mei, in her distraction, might cause trouble.
She might take some unnecessary action, and if these unnecessary actions complicated what was originally a simple matter.
Then the gains would not outweigh the losses.
With this thought, Lu Feng immediately dialed the number.
But at that moment, a call landed on his phone first.
"Who is it?"
Seeing the unfamiliar number, Lu Feng was momentarily stunned.
He opened it and held it to his ear.
The anxious look on his face vanished in an instant.
"Zhang Dong? Brother Dong!"
"Why are you using this number?"
Lu Feng was extremely familiar with the voice on the phone, but the number was surprisingly strange.
Zhang Dong's voice, on the other end, was lowered.
"Let me tell you, the fish has taken the bait. I'm using multiple safe houses now. What if I'm being monitored? Wouldn't that mean failure!"
Monitored, he could even think of that.
Ge Jun's assistant was indeed sharp, but not to that extent.
Lu Feng found it quite amusing.
However, upon hearing Zhang Dong's words, the amusement that had been lingering in his heart instantly turned into laughter.
Laughter from the heart.
"This time, this assistant is finished!"
Before Lu Feng could speak, Zhang Dong's voice entered his ears again.
"This person should have been finished long ago."
Although this person didn't have Ge Jun's prominent status, it didn't lessen his detestability.
This person, just like Ge Jun, had intended to kill him.
Bringing this person down was also what he deserved.
Otherwise, why offend him of all people!
And not just once, but repeatedly.
When he descended the mountain, his master only said this was also a form of his cultivation.
She didn't specify the content of the cultivation.
But eradicating evil and helping the good should also be part of cultivation.
"Brother Dong, thank you."
Lu Feng said with a smile at this moment.
Zhang Dong narrowed his eyes, "Alright, if there's any new information, I'll let you know!"
He and Lu Feng were both getting what they needed.
Lu Feng's actions were for these matters above.
As for Zhang Dong, it was to gain favor in front of Zhang Ke.
Once the assistant was out, the core power of Taitung Group would return to the Lin family.
Then the money he invested would yield corresponding returns.
In this way, Zhang Ke would no longer look down on him.
Lu Feng hung up the phone.
At this moment, his heart felt as if a warm, clear spring was flowing through it.
This feeling was truly comfortable.
He returned to the living room and looked at the television.
His previous thoughts were forgotten due to this excitement.
Meanwhile, within Taitung Group.
The assistant was instructing a finance officer to handle his shares.
"Hurry, hurry, why are you so slow!"
The finance officer, hearing the arrogant tone, was filled with anger.
However, after all, this person was a subordinate of the former Ge Jun, and now, a capable assistant to Zhang Yun, the soul of the entire group.
All this anger could only be transformed into a few decisive words: "Yes, yes."
The finance officer's fingers were already blurring on the keyboard, he was on the verge of flying.
But the assistant was still not satisfied.
The longer the assistant remained here,
The greater the possibility of being seen and reported to Zhang Yun.
"Are you done yet?"
After only three minutes, the assistant impatiently urged again.
The finance officer looked troubled.
However, before he could speak.
Someone slowly walked up behind the finance officer.
"Xiao Wang, the director wants to see you!"
Upon hearing this, not only the finance officer but also the assistant's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Zhang Yun had already discovered his whereabouts?
Just as he was about to ask.
At that moment, the finance officer voiced his confusion.
"What does the director want to see me for!"
"Oh, nothing, he just wants to confirm the bills you submitted yesterday!"
Hearing this, the assistant, who was standing aside, appeared outwardly calm, his body unmoving, but inwardly, he was greatly relieved.
"Then, I'll go first!"
"Go ahead!" The assistant glanced at the finance officer.
Since Zhang Yun hadn't seen through him yet, he had to remain calm.
This was the conclusion he had drawn from his years of experience following Ge Jun.
Many major events ultimately failed not for other reasons, but because of this.
One must be calm.
The assistant thought to himself. Then, he stood aside calmly, waiting quietly.
At this moment, the person led the finance officer to the director's office.
"Director, are there any issues with the bills I submitted last time?"
The director, sitting in his chair, did not speak, but gestured for the person who had entered to leave.
After the office was left with only him and the finance officer.
The director then slowly stood up.
"The bills you submitted, I've looked at them, and there are no problems!"
No problems, why are you looking for me?
The finance officer was immediately astonished.
Although the director merely glanced at him sideways, he immediately understood the finance officer's confusion.
"Xiao Wang, I've asked you to come here today because there's an important task to give you!"
"What task?"
The confusion on the finance officer's face became increasingly gloomy and dark, like the sky before a heavy rain.
The director, at this moment, narrowed his eyes, a strange smile appearing on his lips.
"This task, you've already completed half of it, and you did very well just now."
"What?"
The finance officer was completely bewildered.
Could it be the assistant?
His mind raced, and the finance officer suddenly looked up. His expression was no longer one of astonishment but of apprehension.
"He asked me to do it, I don't know anything!"
The finance officer didn't want to lose his job.
If he had known, he wouldn't have agreed.
However, the director was not speaking ironically.
The director's voice, compared to before, seemed even calmer.
"No one is blaming you, you did very well, and moreover, I must tell you now, give this guy whatever he wants, set the highest limit!"
"What?"
The finance officer's eyes met the director's gaze across the distance.
The director shook his head a few times, "If you handle this well, I'll give you an extra zero point one percent."
Zero point one percent, that was still a lot.
Under great reward, there must be brave men.
The director didn't intend to let him know too much.
The finance officer decided not to ask anymore.
"Thank you, Director."
Saying this, the finance officer turned and left.
He returned to the assistant's vicinity.
The assistant, having waited for the finance officer for so long, couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Why did it take so long? Was there a mistake?"
The finance officer originally wanted to say a few more words.
After all, he had worked under the assistant before.
But he remembered the assistant's arrogant demeanor just now, and how he hadn't taken him seriously.
Then he recalled what the director had told him.
The finance officer paused, then shook his head.
"No, nothing. There was a problem with the reconciliation earlier, a minor issue."
Before the assistant could speak, the finance officer said.
"Where were we just now? Let's continue!"
The assistant was eager to transfer assets.
A small finance officer shouldn't have become an object of Zhang Yun's favor so quickly.
"Mmm!" The assistant nodded, saying no more.
Transferring shares was not a simple matter.
The finance officer and the assistant worked for a full half hour.
Finally, the finance officer exhaled and looked up.
"Alright, it's done now."
As per the director's instructions, the finance officer had disbursed all the money that could be disbursed.
"Thank you!"
Hearing this, the assistant gave him a gentle smile.
Originally, the assistant had planned to stay within Taitung Group to await Ge Jun's return.
It seemed that day was becoming increasingly illusory.
Prosper and benefit the world, retreat and preserve oneself.
The assistant was now in a predicament.
At the very least, he had to retreat with his whole body.
Currently, the assistant only needed to wait for the money to arrive and then leave immediately.
At such a time, the assistant's state of mind was even more chaotic.
Despite forcibly suppressing these emotions, the assistant, upon returning to his office, still felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Every second and every minute felt like an ordeal in purgatory.
