Chapter 1501: Chapter 1491: Data

Mu Yu basically didn’t care what Ou Shu was saying, she just kept going at Mole, forcing Him to keep dodging. In the middle she even brought up their past trash talk, making Ou Shu grit his teeth in pain, but he didn’t dare fight back, afraid that if Mu Yu got upset she’d team up with Jiang Cheng and wipe Him out.

Jiang Cheng watched this sudden shift in tone, a little confused, but just letting the two of them brawl here wasn’t an option. He hurried forward, grabbed Mu Yu, and asked, "What’s going on? Why did you suddenly start hitting him?"

Mu Yu said, "I started it? Not beating him to death is already giving him face." Hearing this, Jiang Cheng was even more puzzled, completely lost about what was happening. He kept pressing Mu Yu, and Mu Yu ground her teeth and said, "Do you have any idea what he did to me up on the mountain?"

"What did He do to you on the mountain?" Mole asked, looking totally unconvinced, the whole sentence dripping with grievance.

Mu Yu glared at Mole hatefully and said, "When I was being tortured up on that mountain, it was you who went the hardest on me. And you ask why I’m hitting you? If I don’t get my revenge now, when am I supposed to?"

Mole listened to Mu Yu’s words and could only look at her, crying and laughing at the same time. Jiang Cheng stopped trying to pull Mu Yu away, then said to her, "If that’s how it is, you two do whatever you want. When you’re done, come find me. I’ll go wait in the car while you sort out your own business."

Once Jiang Cheng finished, he headed for the car. Mole saw Jiang Cheng actually just leave Him be and go back to the car, so He hurriedly followed behind Jiang Cheng toward the vehicle.

Hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, Mu Yu also stopped hitting Mu Yu, and followed behind Mole into the car.

After they got in, Jiang Cheng looked at the two who’d stopped fighting and asked, "You done brawling?"

Mu Yu ignored Jiang Cheng, sitting herself down in the front passenger seat, while Mole, too embarrassed to say anything, sat in the back with a stiff smile. Jiang Cheng chuckled and said, "Since you’re not fighting anymore, let’s head back!"

With that, Jiang Cheng started the car and drove toward the city, a smug little smile on his face as he looked at the feuding pair in the back.

On the way Jiang Cheng didn’t speak, and Mu Yu and Shu Feng didn’t say anything either. Seeing them like this, Jiang Cheng said, "Shu Shu, apologize to Mu Yu. After all, this whole thing is your fault."

Shu heard Jiang Cheng’s words, nodded, and said to Mu Yu, "I’m sorry. Back then it was the circumstances. Let’s forgive each other, I hope you can cut me some slack." As Shu spoke, his expression was genuinely sincere, but Mu Yu still completely ignored Him.

Jiang Cheng looked at Mu Yu and suddenly laughed. Mu Yu stared at Jiang Cheng in confusion. Jiang Cheng shot Rain a look and said, "You’re actually still mad about that? And you’re supposed to be a seasoned operative. You look more like a kid to me."

Mu Yu glared at Jiang Cheng, then pretended to be angry and turned her head to stare out the window without a word.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng knew Mu Yu wouldn’t be talking to Ou Shu anytime soon. He smiled at Mole, then said to Ou Shu, "Since you don’t want to join, then just work for me."

Mole heard Jiang Cheng and asked, baffled, "Aren’t you with her? You’re not part of the team?" Mole had assumed Jiang Cheng was a member too, but from the sound of it, Jiang Cheng and Mu Yu weren’t actually on the same side.

Jiang Cheng looked at the puzzled Mole and said, "I’m not a team member, I’m a businessman, the CEO of a tech company. I’m only out here this time because of how things worked out. So? Want to come with me and make some money?"

"You’re a company CEO?" Mole stared at Jiang Cheng in shock. He really hadn’t expected Jiang Cheng to be a CEO; that genuinely stunned Him.

He already knew a bit about Jiang Cheng’s skills. Based on Mole’s judgment, even if Jiang Cheng wasn’t a team member, He had to be some kind of special forces guy from the army. He never expected Him to be a company CEO. And a tech company CEO at that!

Honestly, if it weren’t for Jiang Cheng’s tone not sounding like He was lying, and the fact this wasn’t something worth lying about, Mole would’ve assumed Jiang Cheng was just messing with Him.

Mole looked at Jiang Cheng and asked, "So you’re a computer expert?" Mole was truly blown away now.

Jiang Cheng saw Mole’s expression, laughed, and said, "I know you must think this is unbelievable right now. I’m also the head of security for the Hua Family. You tell me, does that count as being a computer expert?"

Mole realized that ever since coming down from the mountain, He’d basically been in a constant state of shock. When He’d heard Jiang Cheng before, He’d assumed Jiang Cheng was just some small-time CEO, or maybe the head of a shell company. He never expected Him to also be the security chief.

"If you really are the head of security, then I’ll work for you. But let’s get one thing straight: don’t treat me like some hired help. If you do, I’ll walk."

Shu accepted Jiang Cheng’s offer, but still laid out his conditions. After Shu finished, Jiang Cheng was very pleased. After all, His company had just gained another talent. That was no small asset for a company like His.

"Alright, I agree. And besides, as the CEO, I’m not about to abuse my people’s talent. Here’s the plan: once this whole thing is over, you come back with me. After we’re back, I’ll assign you to other work."

Shu nodded. As Jiang Cheng drove, He noticed raindrops starting to hit the windows and said, "Looks like we’re in for a heavy downpour today."

Right after Jiang Cheng said that, the outside of the car suddenly lit up, followed by rolling thunder. Hearing it, Jiang Cheng said, "Guess my crow’s mouth was right again. But rain’s good—it’ll cool everything down a lot."

Saying that, Jiang Cheng drove to the Team Unit. Once they arrived, Mu Yu took Mole off for questioning. Mole was quite cooperative; basically, whatever they asked, Ou Shu would answer.

In the middle of interrogating Mole, Mu Yu suddenly heard her phone ringing. She checked the number on the screen and said to the teammate beside her, "Pause the interrogation for now, I’m going out to take a call."

With that, Mu Yu left the interrogation room. After she stepped out, she swiped to accept the call, and heard a voice on the other end say, "I’ve already been briefed on this whole affair. I’ve arranged someone to come assist you. They should be at the airport by now. Head over and pick this person up." The voice on the other end was worn and weathered.

"Do we know who’s coming this time? Do we have a photo? How are we supposed to find him at the airport?" Mu Yu asked immediately after the other side finished.

"The file’s been sent to your phone. Chances are once you’re there you’ll spot him right away. Just read the file for everything else. If there’s a problem, call me."

"Alright, I’ll send someone over to pick her up now." Before Mu Yu could finish, the other side hung up. Mu Yu curled her lip, opened the file, looked at the newly received info on her phone, her eyes widened for a moment, then her expression went back to normal.
