The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 465 - 465 450 Ten Thousand Meters

465: Chapter 450: Ten Thousand Meters 465: Chapter 450: Ten Thousand Meters “Roar, roar, roar…” Over three hundred people shouted in unison.

Everyone believed they were useful.

Regardless, chicken stealing or dog snatching, all were capable in some way.

Everyone believed they had a skill, but they didn’t know that at Heavenly Reversal Gang, what was needed was team cooperation, collective spirit, not that kind of heroism, and definitely not those chicken thieves and dog snatchers.

“Black Water Security Company’s recruitment method is very simple!” Haozi said with a smirk, “Starting from here, then running around Construction Road, to Jinsheng Hotel, and then from Jinsheng Hotel, running around the foot of Xiangming Mountain, then to the base of Tianya Group’s building, and finally back to Black Water Security Company, the whole course being 9.8 kilometers.

You must get a relevant pass from Jinsheng Hotel, then switch it for another at the foot of Xiangming Mountain, followed by getting the final pass at the entrance of Tianya Group, and at last, come back here with your passes.

Everyone who completes the task and returns here will not only become an employee of Black Water Security Company but also get a reward of two thousand yuan!”

At first, people felt it was incredible, but later, they found it somewhat fair, not only to become an employee of Black Water Security Company but also to get a reward of two thousand yuan.

It seemed quite nice.

“It’s too long, almost ten thousand meters.

That’s terrifying!”

“What’s this?

Back when I was in the army, we would sprint ten kilometers cross-country!”

Faced with the assessment, those lined up expressed how terrifying it was—a ten-kilometer run, which could literally kill a person.

Some people immediately declared their withdrawal; about a few dozen people quit the race.

Then, Haozi quickly isolated the scene and corrall the participating people together, handing out a red pass to each person.

Everyone had to take this pass to the next location to exchange for another pass.

After the passes were distributed, Haozi knew how many people were racing—three hundred and twenty-one people in total had joined the competition.

It was only unknown whether a hundred people could complete the task in the end.

At Haozi’s command, all three hundred and more competitors burst out running.

Initially, these people ran wildly.

Only those who had exercised or had experience in long-distance running understood that sprinting like this from the start was a wrong decision.

This was quickly proven as those who had sprinted out soon became gasping for breath, pale-faced, with sweat pouring down.

One by one, they put their hands on their waists and leaned against something to rest, too tired and shaking their heads, saying, “No more running, no more running, I’m exhausted!”

But the main force was still sprinting.

Soon, the main force split into several groups.

Some who had been in the military or who had graduated from sports schools were running at the very front.

Then there were those with slightly better physical fitness running in the middle, followed by those who were gritting their teeth and persisting at the back.

These three groups became a focus on the scene.

Those at the front had uniform steps and consistent pace.

No one wanted to sprint, except for one man in green clothing who was leading at the front, followed by dozens of others.

A ten-kilometer race is both long and short.

The First Army Group quickly reached Jinsheng Hotel, got a green pass, stuck it on their arms, and continued to sprint.

Among them, some people stealthily got lifts or followed by motorcycle, trying to cheat and pass the assessment.

However, when they arrived at Jinsheng Hotel, they were immediately disqualified by the examiners.

The reason for disqualification was simple—they did not even break a sweat; could they really have run several kilometers?

That was too fake.

In one sentence, they dashed the young man’s hopes.

After one lap, over eighty people passed.

More than two hundred people had dropped out of the race, of course, a large part of them had not reached Jinsheng Hotel.

The number of over eighty people was lower than Haozi had anticipated; originally, he had thought that over a hundred could complete the whole course.

However, adhering to the principle of preferring shortage to excess, Haozi did not expand the selection.

Once expanded, it would be unfair to the eighty or so people on site.

At this time, an Infiniti arrived at the scene.

“Brother Chen!” A little brother’s eyes lit up as he saw Ye Chen get out of the car and immediately went up to greet him.

“Mm, how did Haozi do with the recruitment?” Ye Chen asked at once.

“Brother Haozi has already recruited over eighty people, and they’re all pretty good!” the little brother said with a grinning smile.

“Good, I’ll go inside and take a look!” Ye Chen said, and immediately stepped inside, giving the little brother a cigarette before he left, who was pleasantly surprised.

At Black Water Security Company, everyone gathered inside to register and then receive two thousand yuan.

More than a hundred thousand yuan was dispersed in the blink of an eye.

Seeing Ye Chen, Haozi immediately smiled and said, “Brother Chen, over eighty people here have basically passed the assessment!”

“Mm, not bad!” Ye Chen nodded, observing the over eighty people, who were mostly strong and fit.

There were few who slipped through without merit.

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Take the selected people directly to Da Xia for training.

They can be on duty in three months!”

“Yes!” Haozi immediately nodded.

…

Jianghuai City Government, Liu Jiangqiu found out that Ye Chen had returned, and he was completely dejected.

It hadn’t been but a few days since the news from Hong Kong came through, had it?

Wasn’t it said that Ye Chen was already dead?

How did another Ye Chen pop up all of a sudden here?

To verify the truth of the news, Liu Jiangqiu even made a special effort to check, and indeed, it was Ye Chen.

This immediately made Liu Jiangqiu stunned.

Bang!

Liu Jiangqiu, holding a cup, fiercely threw it away, startling the assistant who had just pushed the door open.

He stood there, dumbfounded.

He hurriedly asked, “Secretary Liu, what’s wrong with you?”

“Ye Chen, not dead, I can’t eat or sleep in peace!” Liu Jiangqiu gritted his teeth and said, “Even the Hong Kong Hongmen are so unreliable, this is too much!”

“Ah, Secretary Liu, I’m afraid…” The assistant let out a sigh.

“Do you know something?” Liu Jiangqiu immediately asked.

“Yes!” The assistant nodded immediately and said, “If we let Hongmen take on Ye Chen, it’s no longer feasible now.”

“Why?” Liu Jiangqiu was startled.

“Ye Chen has already established his power in Hong Kong, and besides, he’s gained the support of the Hong Kong Gongsun Family and Li Family, ah…” The assistant was somewhat helpless; he had virtually watched with wide-open eyes as Ye Chen slowly transformed from a nobody into a giant.

The growth of the Heavenly Reversal Gang had become unstoppable, and Ye Chen’s strength continued to surge.

Thus, comparatively speaking, Secretary Liu’s hope of dealing with Ye Chen seemed even more remote.

It looked utterly hopeless.

“Damn it!” Liu Jiangqiu, gritting his teeth, said, “I cannot let him live so freely, I must make him suffer the pain he deserves!”

“Secretary Liu, then… what do you plan to do?” The assistant asked anxiously.

“If the obvious approach doesn’t work, we’ll take the covert one!” Liu Jiangqiu, clenching his teeth, said, “Since we can’t strike at Ye Chen, we’ll make the people around him our targets.

I want Ye Chen to taste what it feels like to have his loved ones die right in front of his eyes.

I want him to endure the most painful thing in this world!”

“This…” The assistant was taken aback.

At this moment, Liu Jiangqiu’s secretary walked in and said very respectfully, “Secretary Liu, there’s someone who says they want to visit you!”

“Who is it?” Liu Jiangqiu was startled.

The secretary quickly shook his head and said, “This person is wearing sunglasses, and I don’t recognize him, but he specifically asked to see you, and he even said that you would definitely find a use for him!”

“Hmm?” Liu Jiangqiu was startled and frowned, saying, “Alright then, let him in, I want to see who is playing mysterious tricks!”

Subsequently, the secretary led in a man dressed in a black tracksuit.

The man had sunglasses on and wore a baseball cap, with a backpack slung over his shoulders.

After entering, the man sat directly opposite Liu Jiangqiu.

His build was strong and imposing, with the bearing of Northeastern people.

Liu Jiangqiu looked at the man and asked with a smile, “May I know who this brother is?”

“Hehe, Secretary Liu, have you forgotten me?” The man gave a faint smile, took off his cap and sunglasses.

“It’s you!” Liu Jiangqiu was surprised, staring at the man in front of him, and pointing at him, it took him a while to say, “Mr.

Crown Prince!”

“Heh heh, Secretary Liu sure has a good memory!” Mr.

Crown Prince gave a respectful gesture to Liu Jiangqiu and said, “I heard that there’s an irreconcilable conflict between Secretary Liu and Ye Chen, so, upon my return to Jianghuai City, I came straight to see Secretary Liu!”

“Hehe, Mr.

Crown Prince, are you mistaken?” Liu Jiangqiu chuckled; he wouldn’t easily reveal his goals to anyone.

The officialism mindset and the principles of Thick Black Theory told Liu Jiangqiu to absolutely not disclose his thoughts to anyone, nor to let anyone easily guess what he was thinking.

“Secretary Liu, let’s talk frankly!” Mr.

Crown Prince, holding a cup of tea, took a sip and then continued, “I have a big grudge against Ye Chen.

If it weren’t for him, I would not have left Jianghuai City in such a sorry state.

Now that I’m back, I must teach him a lesson!”

“So… what’s your plan, Mr.

Crown Prince?” A light bulb went off in Liu Jiangqiu’s head; could he use Mr.

Crown Prince for his own revenge?

Borrowing a knife to kill someone was always something Liu Jiangqiu enjoyed doing.

As long as he didn’t personally take action, everything was negotiable.

“My idea is very simple!” Mr.

Crown Prince grinned and said, “I’ve been studying Ye Chen for a long time, and Ye Chen is a person who values relationships deeply.

So, the best method is to start with the people close to Ye Chen.”
