Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1235 - 1286: Sincere Cooperation
Chapter 1235: Chapter 1286: Sincere Cooperation
However, Li Yifei didn’t rush to Nepal. First, he needed to make adequate preparations. Although he had undertaken many missions over the years, he had never been to Nepal before, and he knew absolutely nothing about the Tantric Buddhism on the Tibet Border. To go there recklessly would most likely result in a very small chance of success.
Furthermore, his consecutive trips to Kunlun had almost taken up a month. In another month, Su Mengxin was going to give birth, and he, as a father-to-be, should not be absent when his wife was having a baby.
There were also many issues to be dealt with at the company. Even though Xu Yingying and He Fangqing could handle things during his absence, the company was large, and these two had already been working hard lately. Li Yifei felt that he should give them a break.
On the first day he returned to the company, Park Sung-ho made another unsolicited visit.
"Brother Park, long time no see," Li Yifei courteously invited Park Sung-ho in.
Park Sung-ho laughed and said, "I’ve wanted to come by earlier, but Clan leader Li has been so busy, of course, I could only wait for your return before seeking you out."
That was clearly a double entendre. Li Yifei had been away from the company, and how could Noah’s Ark Organization not be aware of it? Without guessing, it was known that he went to that cave again. He laughed it off, "Brother Park, as you see, I went to Kunlun again."
Park Sung-ho had thought Li Yifei would deny it or make up some other excuses, but he didn’t expect Li Yifei to admit it outright, disrupting his plans, "Brother Yifei, you went to Kunlun again?"
Li Yifei gestured for Park Sung-ho to sit down and said, "Yes, such a unique place, how could I resist? After I got home, I couldn’t sleep at all. I wanted to go again no matter what. I even thought about inviting you guys, but last time we encountered two experts. I feared you might draw special attention if you went again, so I had to go by myself."
"Alone?" Park Sung-ho narrowed his eyes.
"Of course not, Shanshan was with me, and there was another person... that, I am not at liberty to say. Please allow me to keep some secrets, Brother Park."
Park Sung-ho looked at Li Yifei in surprise and slowly said, "Clan leader Li, it seems our organization has underestimated you, having two Innate Experts at your disposal."
Li Yifei chuckled, "Where, where, they are just borrowed, borrowed."
His words were vague, and Li Yifei didn’t go out of his way to explain. It was only a matter of time before someone like Jiang Ningxiang was discovered, so being ambiguous now would make it easier to explain later. The more Noah’s Ark Organization knew, the more Li Yifei realized how enormous and intricate their organization was. To completely eradicate them directly seemed to be an exceedingly difficult task. Cooperating with them for the time being, learning more about them, and then destroying them in one fell swoop was the best approach, a decision that Li Yifei had already discussed with the higher-ups.
"Clan leader Li is quite candid. I wonder how your recent trip..."
Li Yifei shook his head and said with a wry smile, "It was a wasted trip, without any progress. To open that stone wall seems very unlikely unless we blast it with high explosives, but then everything inside would likely be destroyed too."
"Hehe, if it were that easy to open, we wouldn’t need to work with clan leader Li. By the way, the two experts from last time didn’t find you, did they? My visit this time was mainly to remind clan leader Li not to act rashly, lest you attract their attention."
Li Yifei confidently said, "You don’t need to worry about that. If Li Yifei were so easily discovered, it would mean all those years were in vain."
"That’s true. We are certainly aware of clan leader Li’s abilities. You haven’t faced a single defeat over these years."
All of a sudden, Li Yifei sighed, "I have confidence in my movements, but after seeing those two experts, as well as your elder and another person, I realized there are indeed taller mountains beyond mountains, and stronger people beyond people. In front of them, I am truly nothing. This has dealt a big blow to me and was also a major reason prompting me to venture to Kunlun once more immediately."
Park Sung-ho laughed heartily, "I understand, but experts like the elder are indeed too rare in this world. From this, you can see just how powerful our Noah’s Ark Organization is. If we weren’t sincere about cooperating with you, clan leader Li, just a move from the elder, and you..."
Li Yifei gave a bitter smile, "You don’t need to say; I understand. I won’t deny it. I wasn’t all that concerned about Noah’s Ark Organization before, thinking you couldn’t really do anything to me. But now, it seems you’ve indeed shown me mercy. If I don’t sincerely cooperate with you, then I’m just being ungrateful."
"Haha... If clan leader Li can think this way, then that’s the best possible outcome," Park Sung-ho was quite excited. He took a cigarette from the pack on Li Yifei’s table and lit it, "Rest assured, clan leader Li, we will fulfill our promises. Moreover, the better our cooperation, the more benefits you will reap. You won’t just have a city, but even a province could be under your rule, clan leader Li."
"Ha, I’m not that ambitious. I just want to make more money, and that’s enough for me."
"That’s not a problem at all. In our Noah’s Ark Organization, making money is the easiest thing. Right, since we’re sincerely cooperating, you can also enjoy the beauty we sent you with peace of mind, haha..."
Li Yifei also laughed and said, "You’re absolutely right, you didn’t mention it and I almost forgot, this beauty does indeed deserve a good enjoyment."
"Then I won’t disturb Clan Leader Li anymore. If there’s anything, I’ll notify you. I’ll be taking my leave now."
"Brother Park is so hurried, why not have a couple of drinks with us?"
"Brother Yifei, I’d also like to do that, but our organization has strict rules. When on a mission outside, we absolutely cannot drink alcohol, and I have other matters to tend to today, so I can only turn down Brother Yifei’s kind offer."
When the two were discussing official matters just now, Park Sung-ho was addressing him with every second word as Clan Leader Li. After finishing the official talk, he directly called him by his name, Li Yifei. It is this kind of detail that shows how strict the discipline is within the Noah’s Ark Organization. freewebnoveℓ.com
Whether it’s a military unit or any organization, Li Yifei has experienced many, and he understands the importance of discipline the most. An iron-clad team has iron-like discipline. A team without good discipline is definitely not a strong team. For an organization as vast as Noah’s Ark to maintain such strong discipline is even more admirable. He couldn’t help but respect the person who founded Noah’s Ark.
Li Yifei warmly saw Park Sung-ho off. However, as soon as Park Sung-ho left, the smile on his face immediately froze. As the Head Eagle of the Flying Hawk Squad, Li Yifei has always valued his opponents over the years, but he has never had a sense of awe towards them, not even against the United States’ SEAL Team—he never thought the other side was stronger than himself.
Executing missions in any country, Li Yifei was always at ease, but coming from the dangerous battlefield, Li Yifei actually came to respect some things, like a master like Murong Yuanqing, and powerful and mysterious organizations like Noah’s Ark.
He no longer thought he was invincible, nor did he believe he always had a chance to escape even if his opponents were stronger than him. Facing masters like Murong Yuanqing, he might not have many chances to flee even if he wanted to.
And regarding an organization like Noah’s Ark, he knew that compared to a nation’s capabilities, it might be insufficient. However, Li Yifei could act boldly within a country because every country has its reservations and can’t act recklessly. Noah’s Ark Organization, on the other hand, acts without as many prohibitions—they do as they please, and that’s what’s truly frightening.
"Husband, is something the matter?" Xu Yingying’s voice rang in Li Yifei’s ears.
Li Yifei looked up and saw Xu Yingying enter. He had been so engrossed in thought that he didn’t even notice Xu Yingying coming in. A smile quickly appeared on his face, and he took Xu Yingying’s hand, saying, "Yingying, I’ve just encountered a bit of a dilemma and I’m not sure what to do."
Xu Yingying sat down next to Li Yifei and asked, "Oh? What is it?"
"Here’s the thing, that Park Sung-ho came to find me again. I’ve also expressed my intention to deepen our cooperation with them. But once again, he recommended that woman he gifted me..."
Xu Yingying frowned and said, "What are your thoughts on it?"
"I’m in a bind, aren’t I? The last time, I sent her away, and now if I send her away again, they’ll really start to doubt my sincerity. As for this woman, I really have no interest in her at all. You know, whoever I’m with, it’s all based on feelings. If there’s not even a little bit of emotional foundation, I really wouldn’t even consider it."
Xu Yingying gave Li Yifei a look and said, "Your words do sound quite nice, but why do I feel like you want me to voluntarily suggest that you take that woman?"
Li Yifei shook his head and said, "Wife, even if you agreed, I wouldn’t. Right now, I’m trying to think what method I could use to make these people believe that I have accepted this woman without actually having to do anything with her."
"Do you really think like that?" Xu Yingying squinted her eyes at Li Yifei.
Li Yifei immediately said, "Of course, it’s true. Absolutely true."
"Well, that’s easy. I’ll introduce someone to you, who can absolutely achieve this."
"Oh? Who?" Li Yifei was suddenly surprised. Could Xu Yingying actually know such a person?
At this moment, someone knocked twice on the door of his office and then walked in. Li Yifei immediately showed a surprised smile. This person could indeed do just that.
