697 Late Night Secret Chat
“You don’t have to worry about this! You just need to do what you need to do,” the Chief Executive said in a deep voice.
Other than him, many other chief executives also echoed. “Wang Yiruo, do what you should do. The great war is about to begin. If you don’t do this, there will be great trouble in the future.”
“But I need a reason.” Wang Yiruo was already a little impatient, but she did not show it on her face.
The group of old fellows opposite her had once made great contributions to the Dragon Kingdom. On the surface, Wang Yiruo still showed respect to them.
The air was terrifyingly quiet, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The Chief Executive, whose skin was as delicate as a baby, said, “Wang Yiruo, this position will be yours in the future. At that time, you’ll know that our decision today is right.”
“Then tell me,” Wang Yiruo was impatient and asked with a hint of mockery at the corner of her mouth, “Could it be that he knows about the scam you set up? Since the era when all the people changed their classes, they have fooled the people of the Dragon Kingdom for a thousand years?”
As soon as she finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became oppressive! In front of Wang Yiruo, dozens of pairs of angry eyes stared straight at her.
The old man who was the first to receive Wang Yiruo was now filled with shock and anger. He slammed the table and stood up.
“Yiruo, what are you talking about? How can you talk to the chief executives like that?”
“Wang Yuanliang, don’t speak first. Let her speak!”
The Chief Executive, whose skin was as dry as tree bark, roared angrily. Veins bulged on his forehead.
“Wang Yiruo, tell me what you know!”
Wang Yuanliang was very helpless.
Wang Yiruo no longer bowed, her beautiful face carrying a hint of ridicule.
“Are you afraid? Are you afraid that the world will find out that the era of class change is a complete scam?”
“Yiruo!” Wang Yuanliang roared in a low voice.
Many of the chief executives present let out a low roar as they glared at Wang Yiruo.
The Chief Executive, whose skin was as delicate as a baby’s, was very calm.
“There’s no need for everyone to be so excited. After all, Yiruo is one of us. It’s only a matter of time before we find out about those things.”
Finally, under his persuasion, everyone’s emotions eased a little.
The delicate Chief Executive continued, “Wang Yiruo, since you know, you should know what to do, right? Lu Benwei must die! Before that, we have to make sure that he doesn’t tell anyone this secret!”
“Let’s get him back first!” A chief executive echoed. His eyes shone brightly as he looked at Wang Yiruo like a divine lamp.
“Isn’t he in the outer realm now? We need to find him.” Wang Yiruo yawned.
“Then send someone to the outer realm to bring him back!” the shriveled Chief Executive said in a low voice.
Wang Yiruo placed one hand on her waist and frowned slightly. “My old swan, the outer realm is so big. How do you want me to find him? It’s easy for you to sit here and talk. He’ll come back. Let’s wait for him to come back!”
She slowly turned around and yawned. “It’s getting late. Dear former chief executives, go to sleep.”
“Yiruo!” Wang Yuanliang growled, wanting to stop Wang Yiruo.
“Bang!”
Wang Yiruo had already closed the door.
Wang Yuanliang sighed and stood up. “I’ll go ask Yiruo to come back.”
“No need!” the Chief Executive with delicate skin said. Then, he snorted coldly in a low voice and no longer had a pleasant expression. “Yuanliang, in the future, teach your daughter what rules are!”
“Understood.” Wang Yuanliang bowed slightly.
“I have to admit that your daughter is better at management than you, but she’s also out of your control!” the chief executive said in a low voice, with a hint of anger.
Wang Yuanliang bowed slightly. “I understand. I’ll surrender some of my authority.”
“There’s no need for that,” a Chief Executive with a voice as soft as a mosquito suddenly spoke.
He was in the center of everyone, and everyone around him nodded slightly. His status was obvious.
“No matter what, Wang Yiruo is on our side. She won’t side with the eight great families, nor will she side with the God Welcoming Association. Her ability is also stronger than yours, Wang Yuanliang!”
Wang Yuanliang laughed awkwardly. Being belittled twice in a row made him feel very uncomfortable.
“Please continue.” Wang Yuanliang smiled awkwardly.
The old man with a voice as soft as a mosquito slowly opened his eyes, and a bronze light flowed in his pupils.
“Just be a good sword-bearer. As for Lu Benwei, if she’s willing to solve it, let her solve it. If she’s unwilling, leave it to us!”
When Wang Yuanliang heard this, his pupils contracted rapidly. When he raised his head, all the previous chief executives had disappeared. He pursed his lips and left the courtyard.
The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. The evening wind blew across the grassland. All the horses in the stable were asleep, and there were owls cooing from time to time.
“Come out, I know you haven’t left,” Wang Yuanliang said.
Wang Yiruo stepped on the cobblestone path in front of the courtyard and walked out from the corner.
“If you have something to say, just say it directly,” Wang Yiruo said lightly.
“You were the one who waited for me. Shouldn’t you be the one looking for me?” Wang Yuanliang looked at her from the corner of his eyes and said coldly.
Wang Yiruo sneered.
“Since you don’t want to say it, I’ll leave.”
After saying that, she stepped on the cobblestone path and walked out of the grassland.
“Wait!”
Seeing that Wang Yiruo had no intention of stopping, Wang Yuanliang called out to her.
“The first question. How did you know those secrets?”
Wang Yiruo rolled her eyes. “When I was young, I came to your study.”
“When you were young?” Wang Yuanliang blinked his eyes quickly, feeling a little disillusioned.
Then, he was stunned for a moment and said angrily, “So, you said that in front of the seniors today on purpose?”
“What else?”
“You, why are you doing this?! You’re trying to make me angry on purpose, aren’t you?” Wang Yuanliang was a little angry.
“Just because I didn’t follow your wishes and interfered with your marriage? Just because I let Yanyan…”
Yuanliang did not dare to continue. He could feel the intense anger burning in Wang Yiruo’s body.
“Wang Yuanliang, I respect you because you’re the Chief Executive of the Dragon Kingdom. It’s not because you’re my father!” Wang Yiruo said coldly. Her words were like needles stabbing into Wang Yuanliang’s heart.
“I’m doing things with you for the future of the Dragon Kingdom and the great cause of the country! Don’t think too highly of yourself!”
