1637 A Severe Insult
His boss would go all out only on matters relating to Miss Huo.
Zhuo Yun was already accustomed to this.
Min Yu glanced at Zhuo Yun without answering him. Instead, he asked casually. “How old are you this year?”
Zhuo Yun was caught by surprise. He did not understand why his boss was asking the question suddenly. However, he promptly replied. “32.”
“I see.” Min Yu shook his head and rapped the table gently. “In that case, shall I give you half a year’s leave?”
The moment Zhuo Yun heard what he said, his face instantly looked worried. “Hang on. Did I do something wrong? If I did, just give it to me straight. I will change immediately!”
His boss’ idea of vacation was probably some kind of exile.
Min Yu looked at Zhuo Yun in disdain. “You’re already 32 years old. Aren’t you going to find yourself a wife?”
Zhuo Yun did not know what to say anymore.
Zhuo Yun’s boss had just shown off to his face that he was no longer single and severely insulted him while he was at it.
Someone happened to knock on the door at that moment.
Yang Yi walked in carrying a stack of documents and nodded to the boss. He noticed the constipated expression on Zhuo Yun’s face. “What’s wrong with you?”
Zhuo Yun looked at Yang Yi. He felt they should share the pain since they were real brothers. He said sternly, “Boss, Yang Yi is three years older than me, but he’s still single too.”
Yang Yi felt lost. “?”
Was he nuts? What was this nonsense spewing from his mouth?
“I think he needs the vacation more than I do,” added Zhuo Yun. The moment he finished his sentence, he hurriedly jumped aside, far away from Yang Yi.
Just in case Yang Yi might want to hit him.
Yang Yi said angrily, “Did someone hit you on the head?”
Yang Yi felt annoyed and did not want to talk to Zhuo Yun. He placed the documents in front of Min Yu and got to business. “Boss, these are all the contracts that Minister Lin secretly signed. He plans to ship out the weapons tonight.”
Zhuo Yun gathered his thoughts and got serious as well. “I thought the wily fox would wait a little longer.”
“The east side of Blaye is a war zone, so it’s no surprise that they need weapons. I heard that a new power has emerged there. It has occupied all the war-stricken villages and towns around it. That is why the mayor needed to see us so badly.”
Yang Yi narrowed his eyes and shared the intel he had gathered.
“A new power?” Zhuo Yun was surprised. “Are they very powerful?”
“I only have a small amount of intel about the new power, so I can’t be sure. However, I doubt they are weak,” replied Zhuo Yun mildly.
“It doesn’t have anything to do with us anyway.” Zhuo Yun pursed his lips and looked at Min Yu. “Since Minister Lin wants to ship the goods tonight, let’s move in on him and eradicate him for good.”
Min Yu leaned into the chair languidly as he picked up the documents on the table with his long slender hand. After flipping through the documents, he loosened his grip slightly. “What time?”
“The insider said 10:00 pm tonight,” replied Yang Yi reverently.
Min Yu nodded. He pondered briefly and said in a cool tone, “Go get ready.”
Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi looked at each other and nodded. They said in unison, “Yes, Boss.”
Before long, the two of them left the office.
Min Yu glanced at the contract on the table. He took his phone again and sent Huo Yao a text message.
[I have something to take care of, so I might go back to the hotel a little late.]
