<strong>Chapter 1404: Chapter 1405: The Employer’s Crucial Identity</strong>


    “Actually,st night I just wanted to…”


    “Shut up.” Cheng Wn shouted coldly.


    Seeing this, Xu Wanguan quickly shut up, since he was on their territory. Although he paid to hire them, it didn’t mean they wouldn’t turn against him.


    Xiang Yu knew that Xu Wanguan definitely wanted to take advantage of Cheng Wnst night.


    But he didn’t believe Xu Wanguan could bully her, given his obese physique, he was no match for Cheng Wn.


    Although Xiang Yu hadn’t seen Cheng Wn in action, he could tell with one look that this young woman was not simple.


    “What’s your purpose for being here?” Xiang Yu asked.


    Upon hearing Xiang Yu’s question, Xu Wanguan felt relieved, realizing the issue wasn’t aboutst night.


    Last night, he indeed had impure thoughts, bringing with him a Sedative drug and aphrodisiacs.


    He would make his move as long as he got the chance. He had done this sort of thing many times before, often settling it with some money afterwards.


    Unexpectedly, just as he enteredst night and before he could speak, he was beaten out by Cheng Wn with three punches and two kicks.


    He didn’t even get the chance to drug Cheng Wn.


    “I’ve already mentioned this to thedy; I’m here mainly for business.” Xu Wanguan said.


    “Is doing business worth hiring us for such arge sum?” Xiang Yu questioned.


    Hiring from a bodyguardpany would be much cheaper; if it were just simple business, this seemed overly extravagant.


    “No choice, having money is just that willful.” Xu Wanguan replied.


    “To my knowledge, in two days Saint Ann Group will hold a conference here that will determine the direction of theirpany. There are five key figures integral to this decision.” Xiang Yu said while looking at Xu Wanguan in front of him.


    Xu Wanguan’s expression changed instantly, watching Xiang Yu with some panic in his eyes, then smiled saying, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”


    Although he said this, his expression betrayed him.


    “If I’m not mistaken, you’re one of them, right?” Xiang Yu said calmly.


    Xu Wanguan’s face changed drastically, suddenly feeling a dangerous sensation, involuntarily looking around.


    “I don’t understand what you’re saying.” Xu Wanguan argued.


    But everyone sitting there wasn’t a fool; they already understood the truth.


    Cheng Wn looked at Xiang Yu, unable to believe: “How do you know?”


    “I guessed.” Xiang Yu replied casually.


    Once he found out the other party was a businessman and hired mercenaries for protection, Xiang Yu paid particr attention to thetest economic news.


    In the news, they discussed daily that Saint Ann Group was opening a crucial destiny-deciding conference here.


    Therefore, Xiang Yu searched online for information about Saint Ann and realized the importance of this Saint Ann Group conference.


    Xiang Yu didn’t know what role Xu Wanguan yed, which is why he came specifically to see him and confirm his identity.


    Judging by Xu Wanguan’s behavior, it seemed to align closely with Xiang Yu’s spection.


    “I’ve always kept my identity meticulously hidden, how did you find out?” Xu Wanguan finally admitted, saying.


    Fearful expression was evident on his face, afraid the other party might have sinister ns after learning his identity.


    “You really are?” Upon hearing the admission, Cheng Wn was finally not calm.


    Xu Wanguan was one of Saint Ann Group’s five council chairmen, with a worth of billions, and it wasn’t the focus; the focus was their conference would determine Saint Ann Group’s trajectory.


    Cheng Wn suddenly felt a massive weight upon her shoulders, nearly suffocating her.


    Xu Wanguan’s current importance was even greater than the previous assignment with Kruse. She never expected to take such a task.


    No wonder Xiang Yu had been constantly warning her, though she had dismissed it, thinking Xiang Yu was merely begrudging.


    “Why didn’t you say it earlier?” Cheng Wn shouted at Xu Wanguan, feeling a bit out of control.


    Xu Wanguan sneered before responding, “If I had said it earlier, I don’t know how many people woulde looking for me; I’d be even more dangerous then.”


    “Why did my investigation show you’re just the owner of a smallpany?” Cheng Wn frowned.


    “Your investigation wasn’t wrong, it’s just a cover identity for me.” Xu Wanguan replied.


    Now that everyone was aware, he had no need to continue hiding.


    At this point, Xu Wanguan looked at Cheng Wn: “Now that you know my identity, what do you n to do?”


    After all, with his billion-dor worth, if kidnapped, the other party could easily get millions and live worry-free.


    “You don’t have to worry, we’re not the kind of people driven by greed. Since we’ve taken your assignment, we’ll do all we can to protect you.” Cheng Wn said with determination.<fn04cd> ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ?? f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fn04cd>


    Only then did Xu Wanguan rx inwardly. He truly feared that Cheng Wn and her team might harm him after discovering his identity.


    Cheng Wn turned to look at Xiang Yu, with aplex expression in her eyes, realizing if Xiang Yu hadn’t warned them, things could have turned problematic.


    “Since everything’s clear, I’m leaving now.” Xiang Yu said, then stood up.


    He came just to rify the situation and alert Cheng Wn to the fact that things weren’t as simple as they seemed.


    Now that his goal was achieved, he had no reason to stay.


    “Hold on, you’re also participating in this mission.” Cheng Wn said to Xiang Yu.


    For a moment, she suddenly felt as if, with Xiang Yu around, any situation could be resolved.


    Ivan sat there, face dark, very dissatisfied. This task was originally assigned to him by Cheng Wn.


    He’d investigated Xu Wanguan’s background too, but the information matched what Cheng Wn provided; the other party was just a regr boss.


    Although he knew Rookie Mercenary Corp wasn’t anything decent, he didn’t see any ws in this task, which puzzled him. He never imagined the task would connect with the ongoing news sensation about Saint Ann Group.


    Now Cheng Wn kept Xiang Yu and involved him in this task; though displeased, it indeed was necessary.


    He recalled when he picked up Xu Wanguan at the airport, breaking out in a cold sweat.


    The opponent didn’t try anything at the airport, clearly not wanting to cause a bigmotion, or perhaps they simply ignored them.


    While in the car, the opponent fired only one shot, ceasing after realizing it was bulletproof ss.


    “Wait a moment, I need to make a call.” Cheng Wn said, standing up and stepping aside.


    Seeing her making a call, Xiang Yu perked up, listening intently. His purpose here was to get closer to Cheng Wanli and investigate information about Zhong Min.


    Cheng Wn skillfully dialed a number, and a name appeared on the phone: Zhong Min…
