Silver Wolf Gang's reputation stank; they used all sorts of vile means to collect debts, as well as to manage the Gu family's biggest underground casino, and were very rampant .

“Hm . ”

“Director Yun, why did you get me to investigate that gang?”

“I understood one thing yesterday,” the boy suddenly said .

His agent was baffled .

He calmly continued . “This world is much crueler than I thought; the weak get eaten by the strong, and the weak won't ever get to make the rules, so I must become stronger!”

“Then, your point is…”

“Hurricane Group once invited me in; I'll decide on this matter as soon as possible!”

Having said that, he ended the call .

He threw the phone to the sofa and walked up to the window, silently looking out with deep understanding…

Early in the morning of the next day, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was about to visit the supermarket to get some sanitary supplies when she received a call from Xiao Xue .

They had not been in touch for so long . Ever since her friend returned to the country, she had only contacted her a few times to ask about her health .

After her return to the country, she seemed to have joined an external company under her family's arrangements . She was a newbie at her workplace and definitely needed time to acclimatize to her environment, so she had lost contact with her at some point .

Upon picking up the call, her friend wailed, “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, my leave has finally been approved! I'm on leave starting today; let's hang out and have coffee!”

“I haven't heard from you for so long; I thought that you've already disappeared from the face of the earth,” she joked .

“You should know this; when one is a newbie at a company, there's bound to be a handover of tasks .  Sigh … I was almost tormented to death . Ah, I was so hard-pressed! If I didn't get a leave, I'd probably die from exhaustion!” Her friend complained wryly while cursing her superior .

“I can't believe you can actually rein in your temper!” she exclaimed . “If you were your old self, you'd long quit your job . ”

“Well, I wasn't sensible in the past! Now, being an adult for so long, I should be more sensible, right?” Xiao Xue laughed and then made an appointment with her . “Two o'clock in the afternoon at the Peninsula Café; I'll wait for you!”

Her appointment was fixed just like that .

In the afternoon, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ wore a simple attire and left home at once .

On her way to the meeting place, she made a trip to a dessert shop to buy her friend's favorite vanilla crepe before she hurried to the rendezvous point .

She reached the café early and sat at the reserved table . Ordering a cup of Mocha Frappuccino, she leaned comfortably against the sofa and looked at the streets through the window as she waited for her friend to arrive .

Basking in the warm afternoon sun, she squinted her eyes . The weather was perfect today; it was neither too sunny nor too cold . She even felt a little drowsy, so she simply nestled to herself with eyes closed .

When her best friend arrived, she saw a picture of beauty; nestled in a corner of the sofa, the warm sunlight from the window shone on Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+'s face and made it seem as fair, and clear, as jade .

Drunk on a sleeping beauty…

Somehow, the phrase popped into her mind .

In the time that they did not meet, her dear friend had become more charming .

Probably due to her busy job before, she had neglected her dressing style .

Now, being an actress, she naturally paid attention to her outer appearance; Qin Zhou had even sent someone to do her wardrobe for her .
