<h4>Chapter 226: Chapter 222 Zhu Hong Gets Tricked</h4><h4></h4>


    Leaving the Nanrong Family, Zhu Hong, surrounded by several suited bodyguards, quickly got into a Mercedes and urged, "Hurry, let’s head back to thepany immediately."


    Originally a half-hour journey, it took less than twenty minutes before the group arrived in front of the office building where Boyang Company was located.


    Ding!


    The elevator doors opened, and Zhu Hong charged ahead, swiftly entering thepany’s main door and heading straight for his office. Upon entering, he was met with a scene of utter disarray; all the office items were scattered about, including the leather sofa which was shed open with a dagger, exposing the fluffy cotton inside, and even the paintings on the walls were not spared.


    Zhu Hong clenched his fists tightly, his face looking dreadful, his eagle-like sharp eyes emitting a cold and harsh light. Several suited bodyguards stood by his side, not daring to breathe heavily for fear of angering their boss.


    Having followed their boss for so long, they were all too aware of the consequences of enraging him.


    "Mr. Zhu!"


    A staff member, who was cleaning up the clutter, quickly approached.


    "When did this happen?" Zhu Hong gritted his teeth, his words coldly squeezing through them.


    "I arrived at the office this morning as usual to clean, and as soon as I entered, I found the office in chaos. Mr. Zhu, should we call the police?"


    "Call the police? I think you’re out of your mind," Zhu Hong waved his hand impatiently, "Just get out, you don’t need to worry about this." After speaking, he walked to his desk, turned on theputer, and then entered a line of startup password. After typing a few keys, several images immediately popped up on theputer screen.


    The images fully disyed every corner of the office. These were the secret surveince cameras he had installed in his office to prevent anyone from sneaking in. However, he quickly discovered that from two in the morning until six in the morning today, the surveince records had been deleted.


    The intruder not only cracked hisputer password but also deleted the surveince records. A person able to do this must be a professional. Such individuals are very cautious and wouldn’t leave any clues behind.


    Fortunately, theputer did not store any confidential information, and there was no fear of it being stolen.


    Looking at the mess throughout the room, he slightly furrowed his brow, a sense of unease lingered in his mind. The intruder had turned the office upside down, obviously searching for something. With that in mind, he gestured to the suited bodyguards. They immediately understood, leaving the office and gently closing the door behind them.


    When only he was left in the room, Zhu Hong walked to the small bar in his office, took hold of a bottle of ’84 Lafite, and gently turned it.


    Click!


    A crisp sound followed as a wooden cab below the bar sprung open, revealing a ck safe. He crouched down, input a series of numeric passwords, and after a retinal and fingerprint bi-scan, the safe finally opened.


    Looking at the materials stored inside, Zhu Hong breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of who had entered his officest night, they had at least not discovered the safe.


    After closing the safe again, he stepped out of the office, called a suited bodyguard, and ordered, "From today on, thepany must have someone on watch 24 hours a day. If anything simr happens again, I trust you all know what the consequences will be without me saying."


    "Yes, boss."


    At this moment, from a building across the street, Ling Chen put down the binocrs, removed the listening earpiece, and looking at Hu Fei who was operating the equipment beside him, he smugly said, "Fatty, how about that, my idea isn’t bad, right?"


    "You’re just a blind cat running into a dead rat, Zhu Hong is a fool for falling for it so easily."


    Ling Chen grinned, feeling self-satisfied. He had been monitoring Zhu Hong for days with no real gains. Now that the Nanrong Family was in trouble, he didn’t have much time to waste on Zhu Hong, and hence he came up with this n.


    Anyone with a guilty conscience, upon seeing their office vandalized, would first check if their most important possessions were missing—a psychological reactionmon to everyone. He was exploiting this to make Zhu Hong involuntarily reveal his secret.


    "Now that we know the location of the safe, are you nning to sneak in again? Zhu Hong is already on guard; it won’t be so easy for you to seed next time."


    "I know," Ling Chen nodded, "which is why I n to act now."


    "Now? Are you out of your mind? Sneaking into Boyang Company in broad daylight, do you think those people are blind?"


    "You see, even you didn’t expect that, Zhu Hong certainly won’t anticipate that I would break into theirpany at the least likely time. This is called ’catching them unprepared’, a strategy passed down from Sun Tzu. Look at you, all brawn and no brains, you wouldn’t understand even if exined."


    "Ptui!" Hu Fei frowned displeasedly: "I graduated from a prestigious university, unlike you, who doesn’t even have a primary school diploma, and yet you darepare yourself to me."


    "For smart people, diplomas are neither here nor there," Ling Chen waved dismissively, "Enough of this nonsense, let’s get moving. I have other things to attend to tonight."


    "What could you possibly have?"


    Ling Chen revealed a meaningful smile, his lips curling up: "Of course, it’s something good."


    Having made significant progress in his rtionship with Nanrong Wanqingst night, if it weren’t for more important tasks awaiting him, he would be eager to see her now.


    After packing up the equipment, Ling Chen and Hu Fei each carried a backpack and took the elevator down.


    They got into Hu Fei’s Santana, and as Hu Fei started the car, he asked, "Hey, how are you nning to get in?"


    Ling Chen’s mouth curved slightly, he chuckled: "That’s easy, of course, I’ll just walk right in. Fatty, there’s something else I need your help withter."


    "Alright, just tell me. As long as it’s not arson or murder, I’m in."


    "If you say that, how could I bring myself to ask."


    Hearing this, Hu Fei red, "You’re not nning to make memit arson or murder, are you?" He shook his head repeatedly, "I’m telling you, I have my limits, I won’t get involved in anything violent, don’t drag me down with you."


    Ling Chen shrugged nonchntly, sticking out a finger.


    "One million, will you do it?"


    Hu Fei’s eyes lit up, his attitude clearly doing a 180, squinting he smiled and said: "You should have started with that. Forget arson or murder, climbing a mountain of swords or descending into a sea of mes wouldn’t be a problem."


    Ling Chen sneered, this guy was nothing but greedy.


    "Enough, stop wasting time, let’s head back. We still have some preparations to make to wrap things up today."


    "Alright!"


    Hu Fei pressed the elerator, and the Santana immediately merged into the traffic.


    One hourter.


    A Mercedes left the underground parking lot, followed closely by an Audi A5 that pulled up a
