"Manager, what should we... what should we do now?"

The person who had investigated Hu Xiaobei's background was filled with trepidation; he was genuinely worried that Sun Zhi would make a wrong decision.

Hearing his subordinate's anxious voice, Sun Zhi furrowed his brows deeply and began to ponder.

Previously, he had asked his subordinates to investigate Hu Xiaobei's background because he wanted to gain a clearer understanding of Hu Xiaobei's situation.

As long as Hu Xiaobei was not exceptionally powerful, he would definitely side with Chen Hu, as this could earn Chen Hu's favor...

Once he had Chen Hu's favor, it would allow him to speak well of him in front of Chen Long, which would be greatly beneficial for his own promotion...

But now, after having seen Hu Xiaobei's information and realizing the terrifying extent of Hu Xiaobei's power, he completely abandoned his previous plan!

Because he knew that even if he joined forces with Chen Hu, they would stand no chance against Hu Xiaobei.

Even if his boss, Chen Long, returned to join them, it wouldn't make the slightest difference, because Hu Xiaobei's power was indeed far more terrifying than he had imagined.

"Let's do this! Later, we'll have a good talk with Chen Hu and clear up what he really wants to do! If he truly wants to completely break with Hu Xiaobei, then we should not get involved! It's hard to dissuade someone who's hell-bent on their ways; if he's looking for death, we can't stop him no matter how much we try."

Honestly, if Hu Xiaobei had not been so formidable, he really would have liked to stand with Chen Hu!

But now, through his investigation, he knew the extent of Hu Xiaobei's terrifying power...

Under such circumstances, he naturally didn't dare to seek death anymore, because he knew that helping now would literally be asking for a death wish.

Hearing Sun Zhi's words, the subordinate breathed a sigh of relief!

Soon, he opened his mouth to say, "Right, that's exactly what I think, I..."

Before he could finish, he suddenly stopped abruptly, because at that moment, the sound of urgent footsteps was getting louder and louder...

"What's going on?"

As he thought this, he and Sun Zhi saw a young man with a face full of panic running towards them swiftly...

Seeing that it was one of his subordinates, Sun Zhi frowned and scolded angrily, "What's the matter? What's all the panic about? Is the sky falling down?"

Sun Zhi was really angry...

Beforehand, he had always taught his subordinates to stay calm no matter what happened, but this subordinate obviously hadn't taken his earlier words to heart.

After being scolded fiercely, his face looked a bit ugly, and soon after, he began to speak in an incredibly soft voice, "Manager, this... this time the sky really is falling!"

"Uh? What exactly happened?"

Looking at Sun Zhi, he collected his thoughts and said, "Manager, here's what happened! Earlier, you told me to take good care of Chen Hu and his people, and I've been keeping a close eye on Chen Hu and his followers. Just now, I was about to call them for breakfast, and just as I was approaching, I saw him leading a group of people striding away..."

Hearing his subordinate's detailed narration, Sun Zhi's eyes widened, "What? He... he left? Where did he go?"

"This... I really don't know, but judging by the direction they left in, it seems to be towards Xiaohe Village."

Hearing his subordinate's explanation, Sun Zhi cursed loudly, "Seeking death! Seeking death! That guy is obviously courting death again."

"Manager, what do we do now? Should we send someone to stop him?"

Upon hearing Sun Zhi's cursing, the subordinate hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.

Looking at his subordinate, Sun Zhi shook his head, "Stop him? We can't stop that kind of self-righteous waste! Alright, you all go back down! I'll handle the rest."

"Yes!"

The two of them complied and quickly left!

They knew they couldn't be of any help here, so they thought it best to leave early...

After the two of them left, Sun Zhi gently bit his lower lip...

Soon, he swiftly dialed his boss Chen Long's number.

He knew that he really couldn't handle the situation and needed to ask his boss for instructions...

Before long, the call connected.

"Hello, Sun, how's the task I assigned to you going? Did my brother get it?"

Hearing such a concerned inquiry, Sun Zhi's mouth twitched, and he quickly spoke, "Boss, I received them earlier! Just now, they left directly and seem to be heading to Xiaohe Village to seek revenge on Hu Xiaobei!"

"Going for revenge? What... What's going on? Didn't I tell you explicitly to take good care of them and wait for my return to decide how to deal with this?"

Hearing the rebuke, Sun Zhi swiftly said, "Boss, it's not my fault! That's what I told them earlier, but it was no use. This morning, just as it was getting light, they were already gone, and I couldn't stop them!"

"If that's the case, then I won't blame you! By the way, have you investigated the detailed information on that Hu Xiaobei?"

"Yes! I did investigate earlier, and I got quite a clear picture!"

Responding in this way, Sun Zhi meticulously relayed all sorts of information about Hu Xiaobei...

After finishing, he said, "Boss, I'm calling you now because I want to know what we should do. Hu Xiaobei's strength is really... truly formidable; we really... really can't afford to provoke him!"

After saying this with apprehension, Sun Zhi heard a very frustrated voice, "This Hu Xiaobei is just a farmer, and yet... yet he has such a terrifying influence!"

Sensing Chen Long's shock, Sun Zhi rubbed his nose and said, "Yes, it's that terrifying! It's even... even more terrifying than I just described!"

"But no matter how strong he is, he shouldn't bully others with his power. He beat up my brother earlier; regardless, I must demand an explanation from him."

Chen Long spoke with an angry face!

He believed in reasoning as a person!

Therefore, even if Hu Xiaobei was very powerful, he shouldn't bully others with that power.

Hearing Chen Hu's definitely angry words, Sun Zhi hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Boss, how did your brother explain his dispute with Hu Xiaobei to you before?"

"What do you mean? He told me that he and a few friends went to Xiaohe Village and for no reason at all, he was severely beaten by Hu Xiaobei, ending up in a very sorry state. Tell me, isn't it a bit too cruel for Hu Xiaobei to beat someone up so indiscriminately?"

Feeling Chen Long's vexation, Sun Zhi hesitated and said, "Boss, if... if what your brother said is correct, then Hu Xiaobei really isn't a decent person! But the fact is..."

At this point, Sun Zhi hesitated...

He knew if he truly revealed the facts, he would completely offend Sun Hu...

Chen Long on the other end of the phone immediately became anxious, "What about the facts? Don't hesitate, tell me the whole story clearly!"

"Yes! Boss! Earlier I investigated the cause of the incident and found that the actual reason was a bit different from your brother's description."

"Different? Tell me carefully, what exactly is different?"

"Alright!"

Taking an awkward deep breath, Sun Zhi detailed the process of his investigation...

Because he had delved deep into his investigation earlier, his description was very detailed...

Most importantly, his account didn't have the slightest discrepancy from the facts...

After fully explaining, he said, "Boss, that's the situation! To put it bluntly, your brother really got beaten up by Hu Xiaobei because he was asking for it!"

After hearing Sun Zhi's words, Chen Long fell completely silent...
