Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

For the past three years, Old Mr. Wen had been secretly creating plenty of obstacles for the development of the entertainment city. On top of that, the long duration of the project had caused the shareholders to gradually lose their passion and enthusiasm about the project. Besides, the large amounts of funds required had also sparked unhappiness amongst the shareholders who complained about it. There had been plenty of delay and dilly-dallying because of various reasons. Hence, the project had yet to be completed even until now.

It was a good thing for Wen Corporation.

In the past three years, Wen Xinya and Old Mr. Wen had been making all sorts of preparations and arrangements for retaliating against the Korean-Chinese Alliance. Now, Old Mr. Wen was in charge of the Wen Corporation and had secretly implemented various changes to the internal department, thus reducing the potential impact that the entertainment city could have on the Wen Corporation. He also managed to control the harm that the Korean-Chinese Alliance would bring to the Wen Corporation in the future.

On the other hand, the Wen Corporation had always had some hidden abilities that no one knew of. In the past three years, Old Mr. Wen had been secretly transferring some of their resources away from the Wen Corporation. He managed to do everything secretly.

On top of that, Old Mr. Wen and Wen Haowen’s relationship was extremely strained and everyone in the circle knew that they had already fallen out with each other and that their blood ties were the only thin thread that was holding them together.

Hence, it would be easier and reasonable for Old Mr. Wen to deal with Wen Haowen, and Wen Haowen’s actions wouldn’t implicate the Wen Family. That would reduce the impact that Wen Haowen would have on the Wen Corporation.

Although they had already done everything that they could, Wen Xinya was still rather worried. “For the past three years, we’ve been using the entertainment city project to investigate the Korean-Chinese Alliance. We’ve yet to find any leads, however. How are they so sneaky and shady?”

Wen Xinya could not help but feel rather infuriated and frustrated at the thought of it. She initially planned to use the entertainment city project to lure the mastermind out of his hiding. While they did find several useful leads, the more they realized how deeply rooted the organization was. In fact, she even felt that... the information they had was not enough to remove the organization for good.

Since they could not remove them completely, it would be impossible to get rid of them.

Next, they would be getting ready to receive the revenge taken by the maniacal organization.

The Wen Corporation could not bear the consequences at all. We Xinya did not wish to take them either.

Si Yiyan said calmly, “Don’t be so impatient. We’ve already begun approaching the core of this organization, but we still need the right time and opportunity. Before then, let’s not act rashly.”

The Korean-Chinese Alliance had already planted their roots within Capital city in China, much deeper than he had imagined. Besides, their network was complex and complicated. He had already investigated them previously and found out some leads that traced back to some tycoons and wealthy families of the city.

Throughout all these years, he had been paying close attention to the Korean-Chinese Alliance and managed to get ahold of some information about their preferred style of handling matters. Although there was only a little information, it was enough for him to continue finding out more clues.

Feeling extremely frustrated, Wen Xinya said, “How can I not be impatient? The entertainment city project is about to be completed soon and we don’t have much time left.”

At this point, it was already extremely difficult to stall time and cause any further delay to the entertainment city project. They had to find out more about the Korean-Chinese Alliance and attack them with a lethal blow before the entertainment city went into operation. Otherwise, the Wen Corporation would be destroyed.

Si Yiyan explained calmly, “I suspect that the Korean-Chinese Alliance has already infiltrated several wealthy and prestigious families in Capital city. Hence, I’ve been checking up on them meticulously in order to avoid alarming them. At this critical juncture, we can’t afford to make any mistakes. Otherwise, it would be a waste of all our efforts.”

Greatly taken aback by the sudden news, Wen Xinya asked, “What do you mean?”

She had already gotten some ideas, she was still in disbelief.

Si Yiyan answered, “It’s exactly what you’re thinking.”

Even Si Yiyan was astonished when he first found out about the organization. He did not expect that they had already amassed so much power and authority in Capital city, the core of the government.

Wen Xinya gasped and tried to calm herself down. “This organization is really terrifying.”

The more she found out about the Korean-Chinese Alliance, the more daunting she found them to be. She felt that she had truly underestimated them.

Si Yiyan said, “I’ve been looking into these families lately and the results will be out soon. I’m sure we’ll get something.”

It was not that easy to investigate those wealthy and powerful families because they possessed immense wealth, power and connections. Hence, they would definitely leave some clues during the investigation, and it would be easy to let the cat out of the bag. Hence, they had no choice but to investigate slowly.

Wen Xinya was well aware of the reasons.

Si Yiyan said, “Xinya, I want to deal with this organization by attacking them with accurate shots. I don’t want to give them the chance to escape because they’re just like snakes. If you don’t nab them within the first shot, you would be giving them the chance to crawl onto your stick and it would then become tougher to attack them later on.”

Having understood what he meant, Wen Xinya nodded and said, “I know, don’t worry. I’ll find a chance to discuss this with Grandpa and get him to be warier so as to avoid alarming them.”

The Wen Corporation was still the key in investigating about the Korean-Chinese Alliance. Since things had already developed to this extent, she naturally wouldn’t back down and would instead work alongside Si Yiyan. It was her duty to assist him fully.

Si Yiyan said, “Yes, but don’t get too worried about the Wen Corporation. I’ll safeguard it.”

However, he did not mention how he was going to do so.

Wen Xinya did not dwell on his words. After all... the Wen Corporation had already done everything they could and Wen Xinya had also prepared herself for the worst. Although they were not as powerful as the Korean-Chinese Alliance, they would at least be able to take the blows and keep their foundation.

Si Yiyan smiled and said, “Xinya, we must catch the snakes together!”

In order to catch the snake, they would first have to understand the habits of snakes and remain patient and calm while waiting for the chance to take action.

Appearing rather interested, Wen Xinya said, “That sounds interesting.”
