Wang Ba frowned.
To be honest, if the gang leader and Boss Su were keeping their identities hidden from each other, then everything would make perfect sense.
"I still find it hard to believe," Wang Ba shook his head. "How could something so coincidental happen in the real world? This feels like something straight out of a novel—only fiction thrives on such absurd coincidences."
"You're right," his subordinate nodded.
Just Boss Su's identity as "Ling" alone was enough to boggle the mind.
The Night Rose—how was that even possible?
"Second Master, when do you think our leader will finally make a move against Night Rose?" the subordinate asked curiously.
Wang Ba: "Probably when Boss Su no longer needs him by her side."
The subordinate frowned and couldn't help muttering, "Women are such a hassle."
The moment those words left his mouth, Wang Ba scolded him sharply.
"What kind of nonsense is that? Boss Su is our golden goose! Not to mention, she's Ling—she might be a huge asset to our gang in the future. No one is a 'hassle,' least of all Boss Su!"
In Wang Ba's eyes, there was no couple in the world more perfectly matched than Su Hua and Lin Xuan.
The subordinate quickly nodded in agreement. "Yes, yes, I misspoke."
Other women might not be worthy of their leader, but Boss Su absolutely was.
She had wealth, power, a stunning figure, breathtaking beauty, and was the legendary assassin Ling—her combat skills were unmatched. She and their leader were a match made in heaven.
Wang Ba ordered, "Keep monitoring Night Rose for now. Follow my instructions for everything else."
"Yes, Second Master," the subordinate replied respectfully.
After hanging up, Wang Ba leisurely sipped his tea.
Truth be told, he was grateful to Lin Li. If not for him, Wang Ba wouldn’t have kidnapped Lin Xuan, and Lin Xuan wouldn’t have taken over as gang leader.
Since Lin Xuan took charge of the Golden Dragon Gang, they had rapidly risen to become the second most powerful underground organization, just behind Night Rose.
Their gang was now feared and respected.
Even though Wang Ba was only the "Second Master," Lin Xuan had granted him full authority to manage gang affairs. His position was nothing short of prestigious.
His only complaint about their leader was how lazy he was.
When it came to the gang, Lin Xuan was practically an absentee boss.
He provided some training methods and development plans, but otherwise, he couldn’t be bothered.
If their leader took a more active role, the gang’s growth would’ve been far more impressive.
Wang Ba sometimes wondered—how could someone so lazy be so ridiculously skilled?
With firearms, he never missed a shot.
In combat, he could take on dozens single-handedly.
And medicine? He could bring people back from the brink of death.
His computer skills were so advanced he could infiltrate the dark web undetected.
Not to mention, he founded Skyveil Corporation.
And the kicker?
He was only twenty-two!
If their leader weren’t so lazy, his achievements would’ve been even more unbelievable.
Unable to resist, Wang Ba sent Lin Xuan a message:
[Boss, people should stay diligent. Otherwise, they’re just wasting their lives. Got it?]
Lin Xuan was currently cuddling with Su Hua while watching a drama.
He glanced at the message and frowned.
What was Wang Ba suddenly spouting nonsense for?
Completely ignoring it, he turned off his phone and tossed it onto the coffee table.
He didn’t feel like he was wasting his life at all.
Huo Shen’s appearance had made him realize just how many men were secretly eyeing Su Hua.
Even though she adored him and would never be interested in anyone else, he still felt a sense of urgency.
He needed to spend more time with her—just to make sure no shameless man tried to steal her away.
"Here, Hua Bao, have some fruit."
Lin Xuan held a piece of fruit to Su Hua’s lips.
Her eyes curved into crescents as she parted her lips and took a delicate bite.
Lin Xuan smirked.
Feeding his girlfriend was oddly satisfying.
While Lin Xuan and Su Hua enjoyed their sweet moment, Lei Hui also reached out.
"Boss, your original plan was to begin beta testing for King’s Glory and leak the details to Starlight Group. It’s been two weeks—should we proceed?"
Lin Xuan chuckled. "Yeah, it’s time."
Starlight Group’s main revenue streams were entertainment and gaming.
If their gaming division collapsed, there’d be no coming back.
Oh, and they also owned a chain of high-end hotels nationwide.
But Lin Xuan already had the evidence ready for that.
He would dismantle Starlight Group step by step, crushing every last hope Lin Chang had left.
"Understood, Boss. I’ll arrange it immediately," Lei Hui replied respectfully.
After hanging up, Lei Hui wasted no time issuing orders.
"Begin the beta test now."
He then called Shi Peiran. "Come to my office."
Starlight Group, upon learning that Skyveil was developing a game, had tried to bribe insiders for intel.
Shi Peiran was the mole they planted—except his role was actually orchestrated by Lin Xuan.
Shi Peiran entered the general manager’s office. "You wanted to see me, Manager Lei?"
"Ah, Xiao Shi, take a seat."
Lei Hui gestured for him to sit on the sofa and even poured him a cup of tea.
"Xiao Shi, how’s your contact with Starlight Group going?"
"Manager Lei, I’ve leaked all the information you instructed me to. Lin Qingwan hasn’t suspected a thing," Shi Peiran answered.
Lin Chang didn’t trust outsiders, so he had his eldest daughter, Lin Qingwan, handle communications with Shi Peiran.
Lin Qingwan believed she had him under control—she’d given him a hefty sum for his daughter’s medical treatment and held evidence of his bribery.
There was no way he’d dare betray them.
The intel he provided had been flawless so far.
She was convinced of his loyalty.
"Good. Now, inform them about the beta test," Lei Hui said.
"Yes."
Shi Peiran nodded.
Once the beta launched, the boss would start closing the net.
When Starlight Group realized they’d been deceived, they’d be furious and come after him.
But thanks to the boss’s help, his daughter had fully recovered. Even if he ended up in prison, he had no regrets.
Lei Hui smiled. "Xiao Shi, if this succeeds, you’ll be a hero. The company will reward you handsomely."
"Thank you, Manager Lei."
Shi Peiran didn’t refuse the bonus.
With that money, even if he went to jail, his daughter would be taken care of.
"Manager Lei, I’ll contact Lin Qingwan right away."
"Go ahead."
Lei Hui leaned back and took a leisurely sip of tea.

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
