"Yes, mission assured!" Xie Jingchen saluted crisply and then exited the commander’s office with composure, closing the door quietly behind him.
Waiting outside were Hu Zhengjie and Guan Dapeng, who quickly caught up and called lowly, "Boss?"
Xie Jingchen gave them a glance and both immediately fell silent.
The trio quickly returned to the office, where Xie Jingchen sat down and swiftly wrote several unit names, weapons, and equipment, handing the list to Guan Dapeng: "Guan Dapeng, quickly request the equipment and vehicles."
"Yes, commander," Guan Dapeng replied, saluted, and then hurried off.
Xie Jingchen stood up, turned towards the window, and saw the ongoing special training of Da Rong below; his tiger-eyes slightly squinted: The enemy clearly excelled in anti-reconnaissance, a high-level terrorist—too many followers would be tantamount to startling the snake, detrimental to the progress of the mission!
With this in mind, Xie Jingchen turned and ordered the quietly waiting Hu Zhengjie:
"Hu Rong, Commander, quickly assemble the personnel: Cao Zhuangrong, Du Yueqiang, Zhu Yilai, and yourself—stand by in thirty minutes!"
"Yes!" Hu Zhengjie’s eyes sparkled when he heard his name included; he saluted and promptly left, seemingly afraid that the boss might change his mind.
However, Xie Jingchen took this moment to pick up the phone and was about to send a telegram to inform his wife he was going on a mission when Guan Dapeng, having returned hastily, knocked on the door urgently, exclaiming, "Report! Boss, there’s an urgent report!"
"Come in!" Xie Jingchen had no choice but to put down the handset.
"Boss, just now the Rong District Chief sent a message, saying ’Liu Dongzhu’ has been kidnapped by the Shantian Organization!" said Guan Dapeng anxiously.
Recently, with the cooperation of their team and the boss’s actions, they had caught Liu Dongzhu, lured her with significant gains, and convinced her to come forward as a witness to testify against the hidden crimes of the Wu Family, whil simultaneously extracting many secret evidences of their wrongdoings. The rapid downfall of the Wu Family owed much to Liu Dongzhu’s contribution.
Also, owing to Liu Dongzhu’s defection, the beneficiaries would certainly come forward to protect her, and to break free from the Wu Family’s control, she had to bring them down!
Because of her hatred for Yan Jinsu, Liu Dongzhu would definitely not accept Xie Jingchen’s olive branch; even the Yan Family was reluctant to employ her—I’m lucky that the Tao Family stepped in.
Regardless of how disagreeable Liu Dongzhu could be, her willingness to testify was a boon to many clans like the Zhou family, the Tao Family, and the Yan Family, allowing them to bring down a super clan with ease—such opportunities did not come often.
Indeed, they had Yan Jinsu to thank for this last move.
Had she not forced the Wu Family to divorce Liu Dongzhu, given how Liu Dongzhu cared about Wu Xuqiang, how could she have agreed so readily to be a witness?!
Liu Dongzhu was coercively confined by the Wu Family in a certain private sanatorium—called a sanatorium, but in truth, a place of surveillance.
No matter what, Liu Dongzhu had been married into the Wu Family for over a decade; even if she didn’t know everything inside out, she still knew quite a bit.
And when Wu Xuqiang fell into a coma, he entrusted her with authority in front of the security chief, so she gradually got more involved with the internal affairs of the Wu Family.
These intricated affairs were of such immense value that Liu Dongzhu realized that without her husband, she would lose all authority to access these matters, let alone benefit from them.
Her past overzealous actions backfired, leaving her ostracized, and when Wu Xuqiang woke up, his personality changed greatly due to various health reasons, finding out about his divorce and loss of his Rong Zhi position at the same time.
