Chapter 71: Chapter 71: The Unimaginable Evil God!

Zhu Chanji was shocked by how quickly Xiao Zheng’s strength had grown; compared to six years ago, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Zhu Chanji secretly compared their strengths, and if it had been him fighting Xiao Zheng just now, he could have only taken one more slap than Yang Cheng, at most. That was all he could have managed.

Seeing Xiao Zheng walking towards him, Zhu Chanji hastily stood up.

"You guys are no fun, I’m taking off now!" Xiao Zheng said.

Black Rose and Bai Mudan were extremely astonished, and their eyes viewed Xiao Zheng differently now. Remembering how they had once wanted to fight Xiao Zheng to the death, they felt quite embarrassed.

Fight to the death? They probably couldn’t even block a single move from Xiao Zheng!

"I’ll have someone escort you out," Zhu Chanji said with a smile.

Even though he was deeply shaken inside, this was, after all, Futu’s territory, and he had to maintain a calm and composed appearance.

"A master like you, that’s exactly what we at Futu are desperately in need of!" Zhu Chanji said.

After witnessing Xiao Zheng’s true strength, he was even more eager to have Xiao Zheng stay at Futu, but he could not say it outright. Because Xiao Zheng had already turned him down once before, a direct request followed by rejection again would be too embarrassing.

"Come on! Futu has plenty of masters too! That older referee from before is a master, even more powerful than you, the helmsman," Xiao Zheng said with a chuckle.

Zhu Chanji’s pupils shrank, astonished that Xiao Zheng could tell. Indeed, that referee in his forties was a master, ranked among Futu’s top five.

"Don’t bother sending someone; I can find my own way out. You should get busy with your work; don’t mind me."

Xiao Zheng waved his hand dismissively, having memorized every inch of the place before arriving—where the cameras were, where the infrared sensors and biometric readers were, where the weapons were. He knew it all by heart.

After speaking, Xiao Zheng didn’t wait for Zhu Chanji and the others to react, and he left straight away.

"Helmsman, do we still need to protect him?" Black Rose asked.

Previously, they had been half protecting and half surveilling Xiao Zheng, but now, having seen his true strength, they felt that any further surveillance was pointless.

"Don’t bother," Zhu Chanji said, and then went to the surveillance room to see how Xiao Zheng managed to get out.

Curious, Black Rose and Bai Mudan followed Zhu Chanji to the surveillance room. When they got there, they were shocked to find that Xiao Zheng had just walked out of the gate of Futu Base.

"That fast?" Bai Mudan’s eyes were full of disbelief.

Zhu Chanji operated the equipment in the surveillance room, preparing to watch the playback. He wanted to know exactly how Xiao Zheng had managed to leave.

But after a long watch, the trio was shocked to find that apart from a brief appearance in front of the main gate, there was no trace of Xiao Zheng at all.

"This..."

The three of them looked at each other. Xiao Zheng had managed to evade detection in a base they thought was flawless, without triggering any defense mechanisms.

"The last sighting was probably an intentional act," Zhu Chanji remarked with a wry smile, because he saw Xiao Zheng make a waving gesture just before exiting the main gate.

Xiao Zheng drove off in the vehicle Black Rose had left outside, heading towards the city at a relaxed pace.

It was almost six in the morning, and Xiao Zheng thought about going back to clean up and rest a bit before heading to the company.

After returning, Xiao Zheng went straight into the bathroom for a shower and then lay down on the bed, hoping to rest for a while.

...

In a daze, Xiao Zheng suddenly woke up to find daylight beaming through, he quickly dressed and drove to work.

This wasn’t because Xiao Zheng’s alertness had waned—in fact, he never took his job seriously. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be sleeping until six o’clock. Even if he didn’t sleep for three days and nights, it wouldn’t pose any problem for him.

Just as Xiao Zheng was about to swipe his access card, a black Mercedes drove past him.

The car window rolled down, revealing a middle-aged man in his forties with an expression full of arrogance, looking down on others with disdain.

The middle-aged man, named Zhang Xiaohe, was the head of the security department at Qianqiu Group, and also the cousin of Manager Zhang (the one who harassed Mu Yiqing and got a lesson from Xiao Zheng).

"Hey, you, whoever you are, come here, come here, swipe this card for me."

Zhang Xiaohe, pointed at Xiao Zheng, speaking with great arrogance, as if he was ordering a subordinate around.

Xiao Zheng looked at Zhang Xiaohe as if he were an idiot, having no idea who this ostentatious, balding man was. If the man had asked nicely, Xiao Zheng might have helped him out, but with such an arrogant attitude, he couldn’t be bothered.

Zhang Xiaohe was taken aback. Seeing that Xiao Zheng merely glanced at him before turning away, he realized he was being blatantly ignored!

"Hey, you there, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear me calling you? Do you want to continue working here or not? Come over here!"

Zhang Xiaohe suddenly erupted into swearing, shocked that an ordinary employee dared to ignore him.

Xiao Zheng’s face grew cold, and he then stared at Zhang Xiaohe, filling the atmosphere with tension.

"What are you looking at? Do you know who I am? I’m the head of the security department at Qianqiu Group. Which department do you belong to? Do you even want to work here? Believe it or not, I can make you pack up and leave immediately!"

Seeing that Xiao Zheng still dared to stare at him, Zhang Xiaohe flaunted his identity, trying to scare the young man.

"Oh, Minister Zhang, you’ve arrived? Let me swipe that for you."

At that moment, a security guard nearby rushed over, eagerly extending his hand to retrieve Zhang Xiaohe’s card.

But Zhang Xiaohe was not ready to back down at this point. He withdrew his hand into the car, and the security guard grasped at thin air.

"Step aside, do you think you’re qualified to swipe my card?" Zhang Xiaohe looked at him with contempt, then pointed at Xiao Zheng, "Call him over for me. Today, he must be the one to swipe this access card!"

The security guard’s face stiffened, knowing that if Xiao Zheng didn’t buckle, this altercation would never end.

"Brother Xiao, do me a favor, will you? Just swipe it for him. Zhang Xiaohe’s not a simple guy, please don’t be foolish!"

The security guard knew Xiao Zheng because he never put on airs. Whenever he passed by, he would greet him and sometimes would even share a cigarette.

Xiao Zheng’s mouth curled into a smirk, "He tells me to swipe, and I should swipe? Wouldn’t that make me look bad? Acting as if he’s the big shot? A head of security puffing himself up like that? Ridiculous!"

The security guard was near tears. Great, this was not going to end well, but he was on duty and would be the one to suffer if things escalated.

Zhang Xiaohe heard every word of Xiao Zheng’s and the security guard’s conversation, he pushed open the car door and stepped out.

Zhang Xiaohe was short, probably not even reaching one meter seventy, barely one meter sixty-something. Despite being dressed to the nines, his bald spot was even more attention-grabbing than his clothes.

A bald spot, short stature, a bit on the plump side—Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but find him comical.
