Chapter 1092: Chapter 1092: Waiting for a Rabbit by the Tree

“Why are you sitting here shirtless in this freezing winter? Besides, it’s not that hot in the room,” Chu Qingxue said, startled to see Ye Chenfeng drinking alone with his upper body exposed when she returned.

“Hmm? You’re not sick, are you?”

Witnessing such a strange scene, Chu Qingxue couldn’t help but touch Ye Chenfeng’s forehead, but his temperature was normal.

“No, you’re not. What exactly is going on with you?” Chu Qingxue was puzzled.

Ye Chenfeng didn’t speak; he merely gulped down a bottle of liquor.

After a burp, he said, “Look at my back, see if there’s anything there?”

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingxue carefully examined Ye Chenfeng’s back, then shook her head, “No, nothing at all.”

Ye Chenfeng pursed his lips, then let out a wild roar, pounding his fists angrily against his own body.

“What are you doing?” The sudden scene startled Chu Qingxue, especially seeing Ye Chenfeng so furious.

“Now take a look at my back again?” Ye Chenfeng asked.

“Alright!” Chu Qingxue almost mechanically nodded, concentrating on Ye Chenfeng’s back once more.

“Apart from being a bit red, there’s no change at all!” Chu Qingxue remarked bewilderedly.

“Huff!”

Ye Chenfeng exhaled a long breath and gave up.

Unable to see the tattoo, Ye Chenfeng wanted to provoke it, to see if it could be activated, but the result was disappointing.

“This Demon Craftsman is so unreliable, wasn’t there supposed to be a tattoo? Why can’t I see it, and what material did he use?”

Ye Chenfeng was a little frustrated. In his mind, the Demon Craftsman surely tattooed him; he just didn’t know what material was used or how to trigger it.

“Are you… are you alright?” Chu Qingxue asked timidly.

“I’m fine.”

“You scared me; I thought something happened to you. By the way…”

Chu Qingxue then told Ye Chenfeng about Sikong Zhairiyue, who reportedly hacked into the Chu Corporation’s website and posted provocative content.

“Alright, I understand. Leave this matter to me,” Ye Chenfeng assured her.

“Oh, he mentioned he’d act tomorrow night,” Chu Qingxue added, “I originally planned to disperse the company’s secrets, have several people take them out separately. But then I thought, it might be very dangerous; someone in the company is definitely watching. So the company secrets are still inside.”

Ye Chenfeng snorted, “Such arrogance! So, I will stay around your company these two days, waiting for the big fish to bite!”

“Are you confident?” Chu Qingxue asked worriedly.

“Trust me; I’ll catch him myself,” a bloodthirsty intent flashed in Ye Chenfeng’s eyes.

“But don’t tell Xi Dazhuang and the others. I’ll work in the shadows, and if they knew, it might ruin my plans,” Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but remind her.

Chu Qingxue nodded, “I understand.”

The Heavenly Eye had arrived in the Capital City almost by that night.

During the day, Ye Chenfeng and the Heavenly Eye were secretly setting up around the Chu Corporation.

“Alright, Divine King, it’s done,” The Heavenly Eye gave Ye Chenfeng an OK gesture after finishing the preparations.

“Good!” Ye Chenfeng nodded.

The Heavenly Eye had comprehensively set up surveillance on the Chu Corporation. If the Heavenly Eye desired, even a fly couldn’t escape its notice. Typically, this would be an exaggeration, but with the Heavenly Eye, it’s fully achievable.

“Are you sure he won’t appear during the day, Divine King?” The Heavenly Eye asked curiously.

Ye Chenfeng chuckled, “I’ve dealt with this Sikong Zhairiyue guy before; he always announces beforehand when he’s going to steal something. This isn’t a feint but a way to increase the challenge for himself. Since he said he’d act at night, he definitely won’t make a move during the day.”

“He’s connected with the downfall of the Dragon Knight Forbidden Army, isn’t he?” The Heavenly Eye inquired.

Ye Chenfeng wasn’t surprised and said calmly, “Looks like you’ve found out.”

The Heavenly Eye, with his top-notch hacking skills, had been gathering intelligence with Phoenix all this time, and his talent made it easy to achieve this.

The Heavenly Eye nodded, “Not only that, I also discovered that after the Dragon Knight Forbidden Army’s demise, he went to Japan.”

“You managed to find out even this, that he went to Japan,” Ye Chenfeng said in surprise.

“Yes, he hasn’t left Japan all these years until recently. Of course, there could be instances I couldn’t track him, given his unusual identity,” The Heavenly Eye explained.

A gentle smile touched Ye Chenfeng’s lips, “Maybe, as Adolf said, Sikong Zhairiyue has a significant story hidden behind him, and I must catch him at all costs.”

As night fell, most employees at the Chu Corporation had left, with only a few working overtime. They were understandably anxious, knowing Sikong Zhairiyue was coming.

The entire security department was on duty, led by Xi Dazhuang, who held a firm guard over the Chu Corporation, especially with patrols that were thorough enough to cover every inch.

Xi Dazhuang personally stationed himself on the company’s main floor, waiting quietly for Sikong Zhairiyue to arrive.

…

In a certain clubhouse.

“Mr. Ye, I am about to set off. You will witness a grand fireworks display, bang!” Sikong Zhairiyue said to Ye Mingtian, with a surprisingly captivating smile.

Ye Mingtian chuckled, “I’m looking forward to your display, and I’ll be watching it with another person.”

Sikong Zhairiyue grinned cunningly, “Heh, Mr. Ye, you’re craftily devious, but I like that about you.”

At a certain building’s top near the Chu Corporation, Ye Chenfeng and the Heavenly Eye were on high alert.

In front of the Heavenly Eye were a laptop and a multi-functional device incorporating signal transmission and thermal imaging, among others.

“Divine King, confirmed once again, as soon as a living being intrudes, it will be displayed here immediately,” The Heavenly Eye assured with confidence.

“Good!” A mocking smile appeared on Ye Chenfeng’s lips, “See you soon, Sikong Zhairiyue.”

At ten in the evening, for modern people, it marked the beginning of nightlife, with spirits incredibly high.

This was especially true for the security team, who might feel sleepy later but were full of energy at that moment.

Their highly focused mental state meant their patrol and defense were at their peak.

Yet, at this moment, a shadow quietly approached the Chu Corporation.

If any experienced soldier saw his route and movements, they would be shocked because he consistently kept himself concealed in the shadows, at angles least likely to be noticed or attacked.
