“The board of directors is also angry about what you did. Do you know that because of what you did, Amazon’s stock price dropped by 4.76%?”
"That's a considerable number."
Upon hearing this, Yorick, filled with righteous indignation, felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him in the middle of summer. His face froze on the spot, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
He turned to Charlie: "Charlie, what did the boss say?"
"How to say?"
Charlie, with an innocent smile, turned to Yorick, took out a phone, and turned on a video call.
Several images of people appeared on the screen, and Yorick's expression changed drastically.
"Bob, Aisha!"
The people inside were Yorick's family.
Although he had affairs outside, Yorick still trusted his family.
Seeing Yorick about to grab the phone, Charlie nimbly dodged and said with a faint smile, "Yorick, what you did this time was really wrong. The company can't tolerate you."
"And the board of directors is putting pressure on us, and no one can withstand it."
"The boss said, 'Do you want to maintain your dignity, or do you want us to give you dignity?'"
"I....."
Yorick felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His previously anxious heart died completely. He knew he had been abandoned and that he needed to make amends for his mistakes.
"Tomorrow morning, I hope to see news of your suicide by jumping off a building. I also hope you can be sensible and steer the conversation toward that person named Shen Yan."
"understand?"
"you....."
Yorick suddenly looked up and stared at Charlie in disbelief.
The latter smiled contemptuously: "Yoric, although you have made an indelible mistake, it does not mean that others can use it to attack me, the Marshal of the Amazon."
"I've said everything I needed to say. As for the choice, it's up to you."
Good luck, goodbye forever.
After saying that, Charlie stopped the car, leaving Yorick sitting blankly in the passenger seat. It took Yorick a while to come out of his daze.
He opened the door and walked out, completely unaware that his phone was transmitting an audio message in his pocket.
Once the audio transmission was complete, the phone screen went completely black, and the audio data disappeared as if nothing had ever happened.
Yorick returned to the hotel, blankly washed up, and changed into a well-fitting suit.
He walked to his desk, pulled out an A4 sheet of paper, and picked up a pen to write and draw on it.
He put down his pen only after he finished writing.
Then he stood up and walked outside.
In the romantic city, at 3 a.m., a figure gracefully descended from a building, accompanied by a loud bang. Car sirens blared, echoing throughout the streets.
Until a high-pitched scream rang out.
...
early morning.
The doorbell of Shen Yan's apartment kept ringing. He yawned and was about to get up.
Feeling the softness on his arm, he turned his head and saw Xu Yan clinging tightly to his arm.
He chuckled softly, carefully withdrew his arm, and then went to open the door.
"Crack!"
As he opened the door, Zhang Long, who was standing at the door, got straight to the point: "Boss, people from Romantic City just came over and said they want to take you back to cooperate with an investigation."
"investigation?"
"What do I have to do to cooperate?"
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was going on.
While it's impossible for him to be completely unaware of everything, Old Deng is essentially monitoring the entire world in real time for him, and he organizes all the data, categorizing it into information that is relevant to him, usable, or junk.
And Old Deng would always report the relevant matters to me as soon as possible.
"Hello Shen Yan, I am..."
At this point, a staff member stepped forward and showed his identification.
"I have nothing to say to you. Contact my lawyer if you have any questions."
Shen Yan showed no respect whatsoever to the other party.
Pretending to close the door.
"Hold still! Put your hands up!"
"boom!"
"Crack!"
The staff member made a move to draw his gun, but Zhang Long was faster. With a grappling move, he broke the other man's arm, exposing the bone.
"what!"
Payton howled in pain, veins bulging on his forehead.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...
As soon as Zhang Long made his move, the other bodyguards followed suit and subdued all of them without hesitation.
"You...you assaulted a police officer. In my romantic city, we have the right, the right to do what you..."
"Shut up, the boss doesn't have time to listen to you."
Zhang Long suddenly attacked, landing a heavy punch on Payton's face. His eyes flashed with ferocity as he pulled out his gun and shoved it into Payton's mouth.
"No no no."
The only sound in the corridor was Peyton's muffled shouts.
214 It is our duty to protect the city of romance!
Looking at the group of people who had been subdued, Shen Yan remained calm, as if he didn't take them seriously at all.
He glanced at Xu Yan, who was sleeping in the house, gently closed the door, and walked towards the room next door.
Because he was staying there, he managed to book the entire floor the next day.
So you can stay wherever you want.
"Come over here."
"Okay, boss."
Zhang Long followed, carrying the blood-soaked Payton.
Upon entering the room, Shen Yan went straight to the sofa, crossed his legs, and saw that Zhang Long had thrown Peyton on the floor, his blood staining the floor.
He merely glanced at it indifferently and said quietly, "Payton, I know who you are, and I also know who sent you."
"Don't even mention being a public official in your romantic city. Even if you were the mayor of the romantic city, you wouldn't be leaving today."
Shen Yan spoke very bluntly, taking out his phone and dialing Charles's number.
"Hello, Charles, um, it's me, Shen Yan."
"Yes, there are some things that might require you to come over. I'm at xxxx."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yan tossed it aside and looked at Payton as if he were looking at a dead dog.
He instructed Zhang Long, "Zhang Long, give him some basic first aid, lest he die before the person even arrives."
"Okay, boss."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Long squatted down, ignoring the pain of his broken hand, and forcibly tended to Payton's wound.
"what!!!"
Payton screamed in pain, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"boom!"
Tired of hearing it, Zhang Long struck him hard, knocking him unconscious.
He then continued bandaging him, his technique was rough but quick, and in no time he had a simple bandage on Payton.
...
The presidential suite fell into a deathly silence. All the men Peyton had brought knelt on the floor, their hands covering their heads, their eyes filled with fear and unease.
Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Yan glanced at Zhang Feng and made a gesture to her.
Zhang Feng immediately understood what he meant, glanced at the person through the peephole, and then opened the door.
"Shen, you asked me to come here today..."
"Hiss!"
As soon as he entered, Charles was stunned by everything in the room. His eyes widened in disbelief.
Especially when his eyes fell on Payton, he exclaimed, "Payton, what are you doing here?"
“Charles, the security personnel of your romantic city are trying to kill me.”
Shen Yan, unlike his easygoing self yesterday, now glared angrily at Charles, his sharp eyes making Charles feel terrified.
"Shen...I...I don't know what you mean by that."
Charles was somewhat flustered. He looked around and noticed that Shen Yan's bodyguards were all holding pistols, which meant that something very unpleasant had happened between them before he arrived.
“Charles, come and sit down, listen to this recording.”
Shen Yan took his phone, walked to the LCD TV in front of him, connected the data cable, and clicked play.
