99: Chapter 99 He had never even touched a gun in his entire life.

At the head of the table, Lin Fang's face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water, and he glared at the group of people in the conference room, shouting angrily:

"I entrusted the company to you all, and this is how you manage it?!"

There was dead silence in the conference room; everyone kept their heads down, not daring to meet Lin Fang's gaze, as the air seemed to have solidified, so oppressive that it made it hard to breathe.

"Chairman Lin, it is my fault," Xia Jinsha said, her face haggard; she hadn't closed her eyes for a day and a night.

"Chairman Lin, who could have defended against this? I heard from the police that the criminal gang were mercenaries from abroad, so there was really nothing to be done..."

"That's right..."

Seeing that someone had started, the others chimed in with a few words as well.

But they didn't notice Lin Fang's increasingly worsening expression.

Bang! Lin Fang slammed his hand on the table in anger, causing the water glass on the table to jump three feet high.

The few people were instantly struck silent.

"Say no more. Manager Li, stay; everyone else out."

Upon hearing this, the others felt as if they had been granted amnesty; after bidding farewell to Lin Fang, they stood up and left the conference room one after another, casting a look of 'good luck' at the middle-aged man left behind before closing the door.

Lin Fang put too much pressure on them.

Xia Jinsha opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she also left the room, leaving only Li Chengjian behind.

Sitting at the end of the table, Li Chengjian wore a bitter expression; after today, he, who was already marginalized, would likely have to leave this company.

"F***ing bandits, I'll f*** your grandmother!!"

Li Chengjian cursed violently in his heart.

Lin Fang was savoring the feeling of slamming the table; seeing the man's ferocious expression, he thought about it and suppressed the urge to slam it again.

"Do you have anything to say?" Lin Fang asked curiously, resting his chin on his thumb.

"Boss, I have failed you," Li Chengjian stood up and bowed his head to admit his fault, without offering any defense, "I... I will pack my things and leave in a moment."

"Is that so..." Lin Fang didn't say anything, instead tapping on the table, and after a moment, he suddenly said: "Chengjian, do you know who sent the other group of people?"

What did that mean?

Li Chengjian was stunned for a long while before he understood what he was saying; that group of people referred to the bandits who had pulled a 'black-eating-black' on the ring road and successfully escaped with the data.

But how would he know that? Although he had some connections, he wasn't that all-powerful.

"Boss, I..."

Li Chengjian was only halfway through his sentence when he suddenly realized something and looked sharply at Lin Fang in his seat.

The moment he met his gaze, Li Chengjian felt a chill shoot up from the soles of his feet. In that instant, Li Chengjian suddenly had a realization: the young man before him was not the same species as himself; he was looking down on him, and even this World, from a higher dimension.

Was it an illusion? Upon a moment of daze, Li Chengjian realized that the Lin Fang opposite him also had two shoulders and one head, so he breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the astonishment in his heart.

The middle-aged man's mind was somewhat chaotic, his thoughts like a tangled mess, but under the brainstorm, one thought became increasingly clear.

"Boss..." Li Chengjian swallowed hard and said cautiously: "That group of bandits... experts, were they arranged by you?"

Speaking of this, Li Chengjian felt that the probability was over 90%, and his entire expression was strange, unable to tell if it was excitement or fear.

Facing his question, Lin Fang just nodded faintly.

"Boss, then just now..." Li Chengjian wanted to say that since everything was under the boss's control, why did he slam the table?

"I've never done it before, so I wanted to try."

Lin Fang was always sincere when he spoke.

Try? Li Chengjian was thunderstruck by these words, but after careful thought, he found it somewhat amusing; his young boss was ultimately a youth at heart, and it was normal for him to like playing around, not as terrifying as he had thought.

It was nothing more than sending people to open fire in the city and killing a few people.

Anyway, he was working for him, so he wouldn't kill his own people, right? Right... Bullshit! Li Chengjian's heart suddenly jumped into his throat, and he looked at the young man in front of him with inner panic.

With his laughter and anger, who could truly see through your appearance?

"How much was your salary last year?" Lin Fang changed the subject and asked about another matter.

"Around 2.5 million."

Li Chengjian answered truthfully.

"That is enough to support a family," Lin Fang nodded; this salary was already the ceiling in the country, a successful person in the eyes of countless people. As long as one continued to work normally, one would be prosperous and peaceful for a lifetime.

"I want you to leave the Central Continent and go to a place; it is very arduous, and there may be danger."

It's here!

Even though he had anticipated it, Li Chengjian's breathing stopped for a few seconds upon hearing this, his face flushed red.

Lin Fang's voice was low: "If you agree, I will tell you where to go, you will sign an agreement, and truly join the company. If you don't want to, you can also stay here peacefully, and everything will remain as it is. As long as you don't leave voluntarily, the company will not fire you."

"Or, you could also report all of this to the police."

"No, no, no, Boss..." Li Chengjian was so scared by his last sentence that he waved his hands repeatedly.

"I understand what you mean," Lin Fang said regretfully as he saw him refuse: "You may leave; I will go find someone else."

"I am willing!!"

Li Chengjian was so anxious he almost roared it out.

"Don't rush to answer," Lin Fang's tone carried pressure: "Think about your family. If you join, there is no possibility of quitting. If you want to quit then, I will only have you continue working for the company in a different form."

By the end, the young man was making no attempt to hide it: "I will give you two minutes to think."

Li Chengjian's expression became conflicted; after taking a deep breath, he said: "Boss, I have already thought it through. At my age, it is the time to struggle, and now I want to take a gamble."

"You trust me that much?" Lin Fang asked.

"My choice will not be wrong," Li Chengjian nodded solemnly, "Although you are very young, Boss, I have never seen anyone like you. Some crossroads you only encounter once in a lifetime; following you, I feel I will not regret it."

Lin Fang said appreciatively: "Good. Pack up and prepare to go to Molo; the company is planning to open a branch there."

"Mo... Molo??"

Li Chengjian's face turned pale: "I remember that is a country in Africa on the Indo-Pacific Ocean, right?"

"That's the one."

Upon hearing the affirmative answer, the bitter expression on Li Chengjian's face deepened. If he remembered correctly, this country had recently experienced a coup; guns and cannons have no eyes, and wouldn't a middle-aged corporate slave like him, weighing over 160 jin, be a living target in such a chaotic zone?

He had never even touched a gun in his life.

"Boss, what are we going there to do?" Li Chengjian couldn't help but ask.

"Invest in them, build a city, or one could say, a Base."
