<strong>Chapter 1088: Chapter 1080: A Satisfied Smile</strong>


    However, the man immediately shook his head, “As long as the mission ispleted, that’s all that matters.” With that, the man called over his assistant. “Get in touch with the higher-ups for me and tell them I’vepleted the mission.” Hearing this, the assistant quickly nodded and left the room. The man’s face then showed a satisfied smile.


    On Xiao Yifei’s side, after a few anxious days of waiting, finally, there was news from the people sent out by Old Hua. “Old Hua, I heard there’s news about that person?” Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei couldn’t wait any longer and went directly to find Old Hua.


    Seeing Xiao Yifei so eager, Old Hua couldn’t help but chuckle at him, “I knew you couldn’t wait.” Saying this, Old Hua cleared his throat, preparing to tell Xiao Yifei everything he had just learned. At this, Xiao Yifei’s ears perked up immediately, afraid of missing any crucial information.


    “Ren Tianye.” Old Hua first named the suspect, then continued, “He’s a typical wealthy businessman from the Northeast, with a tone you can’t shake off even after striking it rich. Plus, his current assets are thergest among all northeast businessmen.”


    Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei nodded. Indeed, this Ren Tianye matched the two clues Hua Xiangrong had given, making it hard not to be suspicious. But suspicion is one thing, confirming it is another; these two clues were far from enough to be certain.


    “The clues Xiangrong provided are too limited, but this person is currently the most suspicious.” Old Hua sighed, voicing the same thoughts in Xiao Yifei’s mind. Xiao Yifei agreed, nodding as he said, “Where is this Ren Tianye now?” Xiao Yifei thought he must verify this, so he asked.


    Upon hearing this, Old Hua thought for a moment, “Center Building.” Saying this name, Old Hua continued to provide details about the floor where Ren Tianye was located. After listening, Xiao Yifei knew where Ren Tianye was and didn’t inquire further. Now, what Xiao Yifei had to do was to verify it himself, as seeing is believing.


    Old Hua, seeing through Xiao Yifei’s thoughts, asked worriedly, “You want to find Ren Tianye?” Xiao Yifei nodded without hesitation, not understanding why Old Hua was so serious. Only to see Old Hua sigh, “Ren Tianye is not a clean person.”


    Hearing Old Hua say this, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but feel puzzled, not knowing what Old Hua wanted to say. Old Hua patted Xiao Yifei’s shoulder, showing a worried expression, “It’s said that Ren Tianye’s background is not as clean as it seems. He got to this point entirely dependent on the forces behind him.”


    Continuing, Old Hua revealed his greatest concern, “Think about it, even if you find out he bought the silver needle, what then? And if he knows you want the silver needle, he might make you suffer.” Saying this, Old Hua looked at Xiao Yifei with furrowed brows.


    Unexpectedly, Ren Tianye was soplex; this was something Xiao Yifei hadn’t anticipated, only realizing theplexity after hearing Old Hua’s words. “Even so, you’re still nning to find him?” Old Hua asked cautiously.


    This question made Xiao Yifei hesitate slightly, but soon he made a decision. Under Old Hua’s helpless gaze, Xiao Yifei nodded firmly. “Ah, you kid,” Old Hua seemed somewhat helpless. He knew Xiao Yifei’s character; once he found something suspicious, he had to get to the bottom of it.


    So, Old Hua decided not to stop Xiao Yifei and let him go. “Let me know when you leave, and I’ll have some bodyguards apany you,” Old Hua said, looking at Xiao Yifei, as a gesture of goodwill. Naturally, Xiao Yifei wouldn’t refuse, as having someone with him was safer.


    Thus, Old Hua and Xiao Yifei confirmed the n. A few dayster, Xiao Yifei left the Hua Mansion with Old Hua’s bodyguards and headed straight for the building where Ren Tianye was located.


    “Mr. Ren, someone is here to see you.” Inside Ren Tianye’s office, his female assistant reported to him. Hearing this, Ren Tianye frowned and immediately asked who it was. However, in Beijing, there was no one with a reputation like Xiao Yifei, so the assistant couldn’t exin Xiao Yifei’s background.


    “Mr. Ren, I-I don’t know.” Saying this, the female assistant lowered her head as if she had done something wrong. But Ren Tianye, standing beside her,pletely ignored her words, immediately flying into a rage, “What if someone unknown just let in? How do you handle things?” Saying this, Ren Tianye nced coldly at the assistant.


    Seeing Ren Tianye’s expression, the assistant quickly apologized, speaking humbly and not daring to refute Ren Tianye. Witnessing this, Ren Tianye waved her off, dismissing her. Naturally, the assistant didn’t dare stay any longer, and she quickly ran out.


    “Mr. Ren, why such a temper?” Just as Ren Tianye was speechlessly watching the assistant’s hurried retreat, a voice slowly reached his ears. Hearing this, Ren Tianye looked towards the source of the voice and saw a straight figure standing at the office door.


    With delicate features and perfect proportions, Ren Tianye frowned upon seeing the visitor, asking in a deep voice, “Who are you?” Seeing that figure walk into the office and sit down beside the desk opposite Ren Tianye, the figure replied.


    “Xiao Yifei.” Indeed, this figure was none other than Xiao Yifei, who wanted to find more about the situation. At this moment, Xiao Yifei answered Ren Tianye’s question, revealing his identity. Watching each of Xiao Yifei’s actions, Ren Tianye became cautious, as his intuition told him this person in front of him wasn’t simple.


    “Who are you, and what do you want?” Ren Tianye asked very cautiously. In response, Xiao Yifei chuckled slightly and pointed his finger at a box nearby. As expected, upon seeing Xiao Yifei gesture towards the box, Ren Tianye quickly grabbed it and held it, “What do you mean?” Ren Tianye looked at Xiao Yifei, filled with countless guesses.


    “Oh, nothing. I came to ask Mr. Ren, what’s in that box?”


    After reaching Ren Tianye’s building, Xiao Yifei informed the receptionist of his intention to meet Ren Tianye. Xiao Yifei held no particr ill feelings towards the unknown Ren Tianye, as the deal was legitimate and not theft.


    Thus, Xiao Yifei approached with goodwill, arriving at the door of Ren Tianye’s office. However, seeing Ren Tianye scolding his staff caught Xiao Yifei’s attention. While it was normal for an employee to be reprimanded, the furious reaction to a visitor intrigued Xiao Yifei.


    Thus, after seeing the assistant run out, Xiao Yifei’s impression of Ren Tianye waspletely ruined. This exined Xiao Yifei’s brazen demeanor in Ren Tianye’s office, having felt that such an attitude made one a dog to those more powerful and a tyrant like an Emperor to the weak. Hence, Xiao Yifei couldn’t let Ren Tianye think he was inferior to him.


    This was the entire thought process behind Xiao Yifei’s approach, and now it was Ren Tianye’s turn. Ren Tianye was incredibly wary of strangers seeking him, and by nature vignt, he instinctively assumed such strangers could either be investigators or something from above.
