My Perfect Female CEO

Chapter 542: The Cunning Old Fu


This night was far from calm; the conversation between Mengyao and Fire Phoenix was whispered, unnoticed by Qiu Wen and the others. In the latter half of the night, when Mengyao left, she was deeply worried. Fire Phoenix's infiltration into the God Organization was fraught with danger, where life was constantly at risk, naturally causing Mengyao to worry about Fire Phoenix's situation.

Meanwhile, during the video conversation between Xiaolong and Old Fu.

"I never thought that things between Ye Fan and Fire Phoenix would conclude with gentle means. I thought the two would be locked in conflict, at which point I'd naturally step in to help Ye Fan. Unexpectedly, it ended before I even had a chance to act," Xiaolong said with a sense of unwillingness.

From Fire Phoenix's words, he wanted to find Ye Fan's weaknesses, but Fire Phoenix divulged little useful information. Despite promising great benefits, Fire Phoenix remained unmoved, leaving him feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"The relationship between Terminator and Fire Phoenix may transcend life and death. I think there must have been a contest between them unknown to outsiders. God Organization's loyalty among assassins is unquestionable, and changing their mission of serving the organization is extremely difficult, nearly impossible," Old Fu, with sharp glimmers in his aged eyes, said: "Although we don't understand why Fire Phoenix ultimately gave up, one thing is certain: the possibility of a life-and-death battle between Terminator and Fire Phoenix is minimal, considering this, Fire Phoenix's potential betrayal of the God Organization remains quite high."

"Fire Phoenix won't stay by Ye Fan's side. The next choice might be to lie low and act as a mole within the God Organization. In doing so, she can maximally assist Terminator. By eliminating Deceitful Fox or taking control of the remaining God Organization members, the power held by both Terminator and Fire Phoenix in secret would be very significant," Xiaolong said.

"The relationships among Terminator, Fire Phoenix, and Butcher can't be judged with common reasoning. Any changes are possible. Currently, even Terminator faces considerable danger before Deceitful Fox, and once Deceitful Fox learns of Ye Fan's whereabouts for revenge, the major crisis will inevitably loom over Ye Fan," analyzed Old Fu.

"I have a suggestion; I don't know if it's appropriate to propose?" Xiaolong hesitated for a moment before confidently speaking.

"What is it?" Old Fu leaned in to listen.

"We could try to secretly leak Terminator's whereabouts to Deceitful Fox so he can quickly arrange to deal with Ye Fan. Then, when Ye Fan is struggling or facing danger, we can intervene to save him. By doing so, we would align ourselves with Ye Fan, making it logical to gain his assistance," Xiaolong shared a long-thought-out idea.

"Your idea isn't without merit, but we absolutely cannot do this," Old Fu said, profoundly: "Given the current situation, it's only a matter of time before Deceitful Fox discovers Ye Fan's whereabouts. We must not be the ones leaking it. Otherwise, to Ye Fan, we'd seem like people who'd stop at nothing to achieve our goals, which would be extremely unfavorable for us. Have you considered, if Fire Phoenix intends to infiltrate the God Organization as an insider to harm Deceitful Fox, would she take the risk of leaking Ye Fan's whereabouts to gain further trust from Deceitful Fox? Even if Fire Phoenix doesn't leak it, Ye Fan might have such intentions, surely instructing Fire Phoenix to do so. Let's not forget, Ye Fan is a Terminator, who perceives things clearly and understands the cause and effect and crucial points, having his own arrangements and methods."

"I don't believe Ye Fan has the courage to prematurely reveal his whereabouts to Deceitful Fox, who would only be safer the later Deceitful Fox knows. Anyone who understands would know the stakes involved," Xiaolong said.

"Don't underestimate the Terminator. He has never failed a mission, creating an undefeated legend, which is an undeniable fact. Never underestimate the Terminator at any time," Old Fu warned solemnly: "We should plan long-term to secure Terminator's allegiance, without rushing."

"I understand Old Fu's point well. I don't underestimate the Terminator, but considering the myth of Terminator's unbeaten record, it factors in the assistance of Fire Phoenix and Butcher. If Terminator were alone, he likely wouldn't have his current reputation," Xiaolong, a Human Body Limit strongman, regarded Terminator like any ordinary person since he believed his strength was equal to Terminator's, thus had little reverence.

"Don't forget, the concept of Human Body Limit means no one can exceed the eight-star level of human potential, which is a worldwide consensus. Eight stars represent Human Body Limit, but regarding Terminator, many claim he's at nine-star strength, surpassing the settled Human Body Limit," said Old Fu, with a flicker of doubt and anticipation in his gaze.

"That's merely hearsay. Such talk isn't believed by anyone, just exaggeration. The God Organization probably circulated this to craft Terminator's legend," Xiaolong confidently declared.

"You still underestimate him too much. Don't look at Ye Fan's ordinary exterior; he's a principled person. Gaining his favor isn't a simple matter," said Old Fu coolly: "Leaving aside Terminator's exact strength, his record of defeating Human Body Limit opponents is a feat unmatched worldwide by any nation's Human Body Limit fighters capable of this achievement."

"From this point, it is indeed impressive; however, it remains unverified whether it was solely Terminator's accomplishment or if others aided him, as multiple attackers against someone of the same level would have a higher likelihood of victory," Xiaolong said: "In my view, now that we know Terminator's identity, it's time we come clean with him."

"Don't be hasty. Ye Fan clearly knew Lin Bowen's search for Wilson was harmful to him and knew Lin Bowen was our man, yet he didn't hesitate to have Qiu Wen kill one of our associates, which indicates he knows much about our movements, only feigning ignorance. The death can be seen as a warning," said Old Fu: "I have plans for what to do, and you must not act recklessly."

"Understood." Xiaolong firmly agreed, adhering strictly to orders.
