Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Top Five-Star Mission

"It’s me."

The portly middle-aged man hastily responded and then urgently inquired,

"Mr. Wei, do you know the status of the assassination mission I issued?"

"We had already dispatched someone to execute it, but unfortunately, the mission ended in failure!" the elderly man replied indifferently.

"What? It failed?"

The middle-aged man was shocked. The Fengye Assassin Group was considered top-tier in Yan Country, and most of their assassins were tremendously powerful!

But to think that even the Fengye Organization had failed? This made him tremble inwardly.

He knew that deciding to assassinate was a huge risk! If the target discovered it, not only he, but also his family could get into serious trouble.

Since he could not afford to provoke that person openly, assassination was the only way to eliminate him.

Yet now, the news he received was that even the assassin had failed.

If the news leaked, his entire family would be in danger.

"Not only did it fail, but it also cost the lives of my four children!"

The elderly man sounded extremely annoyed and spoke coldly, "You didn’t even understand the target’s strength and issued only a four-star mission. My children were all outstanding four-star assassins who had never failed before! But due to your inaccurate information, they all lost their lives. Now, the enemy’s danger level has reached Five-star, and perhaps even as high as Six-star."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man was taken aback. He had underestimated how dangerous the boy was?

He had thought that four-star assassins would be sufficient to kill the target, as it was just an assassination, and the assassins would not confront him directly.

But the outcome was that Ye Xuan’s danger level had exceeded his estimate, reaching Five-star and Six-star levels!

This was already the standard of the top ten international outlaws, surpassing the Dragon Soul level.

"Mr. Wei, I underestimated his strength, and I’m really sorry for the losses caused," the middle-aged man apologized.

"Hmph, such afterthoughts are meaningless now!"

Mr. Wei’s tone was icy, and he spoke wearily, "Mr. Song, our Fengye Organization will no longer take this mission. The opponent is too strong; you better seek someone else."

"Mr. Wei, don’t be like this. I was counting on you to help me avenge my son. If Fengye won’t take it, how will I avenge my son?"

The portly middle-aged man became anxious.

"That’s not my problem. You caused the loss of several of my excellent children, yet I haven’t pursued your responsibility," Mr. Wei stated.

"Mr. Wei, what if I offer you more money and you send more formidable people? If you can just kill that boy, I’m willing to compensate for the losses," the middle-aged man proposed determinedly.

Mr. Wei’s eyes sparkled, "That boy’s danger level has been raised to Five-star Level+, and if you want to continue with the assassination, you’ll need to hire our Fengye’s Five-star assassin, and it will be a top-tier Five-star mission. The commission won’t be small!"

"Fine, no problem! As long as you can assassinate Ye Xuan, I don’t care how much it costs. Just name your price," the portly man said gravely.

"Twenty million!" Mr. Wei stated the amount.

"Fine, I’ll transfer the money to Fengye’s account immediately!" the portly man agreed readily.

"Hehe... don’t be so quick to agree; I’m not done talking yet. It’s twenty million, alright, but twenty million Federation Coins!" Mr. Wei said with a cold laugh.

What? Twenty million Federation Coins!

The portly man felt a sinking feeling and clenched his teeth, "Mr. Wei, is there no room for a lower price?"

"This isn’t a marketplace; are you still trying to bargain?"

Mr. Wei scoffed, "If you’re unwilling, then our collaboration ends here!"

"Okay, I agree! Twenty million Federation Coins!" the portly man resolved himself and declared decisively.

"Mr. Song is straightforward enough. It’s a deal."

Mr. Wei chuckled.

"When will the assassin be deployed?"

"I can’t say for sure, I’ll need to rearrange things, just wait for the news!"

"I hope you can do it quickly."

"Don’t worry!"

...

The next day.

Eastern Group, HR department office area.

"Hey? What’s wrong with Manager Su, she seems a bit out of spirits?"

"I heard she was sick yesterday, probably hasn’t fully recovered yet."

"It doesn’t look like she’s sick though, look at those dark circles, she definitely didn’t sleep well last night, seems like she has something on her mind."

"Could it be a heartbreak?"

"Heartbreak? You’re joking, Ice queen Yama Flower hates men, she doesn’t even have a boyfriend, where would she have a heartbreak?"

"Heh, you never know, maybe Yama Flower was charmed by some young guy, but she keeps it a secret, how would you know?"

"With her cold nature, no man can stand it! It makes sense if someone broke up with her."

"Enough, shut up, can’t you say something nice about her?"

Ever since Yumo entered, several staff had gathered together, gossiping.

The usually awe-inspiring and powerful Manager Su was notably distracted and seemed out of sorts today.

This made everyone very curious about what was wrong with the Ice queen Yama!

Knock knock knock...

Just then, a glamorous woman in an LO uniform, carrying a whiff of perfume, briskly walked into the HR department.

The person, Lin Tong, was one of the two golden flowers of the Eastern Group, alongside Su Yumo!

"The CEO is here, everyone get ready!" someone immediately called out.

Everyone returned to their seats and greeted:

"Hello, Manager Lin!"

"Good morning, Manager Lin!"

Lin Tong smiled and nodded, then walked straight to the manager’s office.

She knocked on the door and after hearing ’come in’ from inside, Lin Tong pushed open the door and entered.

At that moment, Su Yumo was sitting at her desk, hands propping up her cheeks, either contemplating or daydreaming.

Seeing Lin Tong come in, she quickly perked up and smiled, "Tong, you’ve come?"

"Yumo, is everything okay?" Seeing her lack of energy, Lin Tong asked.

"What could be wrong? I just didn’t sleep well last night."

Su Yumo shook her head, casually commenting, then asked, "By the way, Manager Lin, did you come to see me for something important?"

"Oh, I just came to check on you."

Lin Tong said, walking around the desk to stand beside Su Yumo, and asked with concern, "Yumo, are you really okay? You look pale. Are you still thinking about yesterday’s incident, haven’t recovered yet?"

Su Yumo was silent for a moment, then gave a bitter smile, "Tong, am I really unlikeable as a person?"

"Why would you say that?" A pang struck Lin Tong’s heart.

"He rejected my confession."

Su Yumo’s gaze drifted to the floor-to-ceiling window, her expression tinged with desolation, "The first man I ever liked... he rejected me!"

She sighed softly, her eyes settling on Lin Tong, and sadly chuckled, "Tong, tell me, as a woman, am I really a failure? It’s so hard for me to feel affection for someone, and it ended before it even started! Am I really unworthy of love?"
