Chapter 2823: Chapter 2824: Ambush
"Itâs no use anymore!" Yang Tianbiao angrily yelled:
"Lingyun Group has already taken action! You offended their president and incited your fans to expose them online. Do you think their public relations and legal departments are just for show?"
Yang Ling was sweating profusely, his body trembling uncontrollably as he stammered:
"This, this should just be temporary. Once this period blows over, it might get better!"
"Youâre being too naive!" Yang Tianbiao said:
"Do you think Lingyun Groupâs influence is confined only to the business world? The relevant authorities have already launched an investigation. Because of you, the Yang family can no longer rise again!"
"The authorities have launched an investigation..."
Yang Ling was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Only now did he realize the terrifying capabilities of that man.
"I, I can promote our family online. It wonât take long before there is another opportunity to make a comeback..."
"Well, well, it seems itâs already too late..." Wang Qi said, trembling.
"How can it be too late?"
"Several TV stations released announcements online, saying they will indefinitely cease any collaboration with you, and even your new song and movie that you are about to release seem to be getting pulled."
"I, Iâve been blacklisted..."
"Thatâs correct."
Thud!
Yang Ling collapsed to the floor, almost fainting.
...
In the days that followed, Lin Yi led a calm life.
Either accompanying Liang Ruoxu and the children or spending time with his team, indulging in food and drink.
About a week later, Lin Yi received a call from Liu Hong, summoning them to assemble at the base.
Ning Che and Tao Cheng also came along.
"Any news from Flame Dragon?" Lin Yi asked.
"Theyâll reach the designated sea area tonight, and youâll need to go and assist them," Liu Hong replied.
"Did you notice anyone following?" Lin Yi asked.
"So far, nothing unusual, but for the past six months, weâve been under close surveillance, so Iâm worried about issues arising. Youâll need to assist them," Liu Hong said:
"Board the ship stealthily and retrieve the goods unnoticed."
After Liu Hong finished speaking, he looked at the three, "Share your thoughts."
"With Lin Yi here, weâll let him speak," Ning Che suggested.
"I second that," Tao Cheng said, laughing.
"Hey, hey, hey, we all get the same pay; doing this isnât fair."
"Those who can, should do more. Iâll treat you to dinner afterward," Tao Cheng laughed heartily.
"Alright, letâs get to business. Stop messing around, you three," Liu Hong said.
"On the island, weâve had conflicts with Storm Team, Special Service Team Three, and Skull Squad. Given the current situation, they are the only ones bold enough to target us. However, I think Skull Squad might not stand a chance anymore."
"I reviewed your reports, and itâs unlikely these people will pose a threat to us again anytime soon," Liu Hong said.
"You trapped them in the ruins and let those big snakes wrap around them; they certainly canât get away scot-free," Ning Che said.
"Thatâs about right," Lin Yi said:
"But Storm Team and Special Service Team Three can still be threatening to us."
As he spoke, Lin Yi walked over to the map.
"If they decide to target Flame Dragon, theyâll definitely cooperate. Iâm planning to take my team to act independently to ambush them, while the others, with Flame Dragonâs capabilities, can handle them without issue."
"Itâs too dangerous," Liu Hong said:
"If you encounter people from Special Service Team Three, itâs not a big deal, but in Storm, they are all experts. Even with your team, thereâs not much chance of winning."
"Thatâs the purpose of having my team with me," Lin Yi said:
"If itâs just against Special Service Team Three, I can handle it alone. But if weâre unlucky and encounter people from Storm, we canât confront them head-on, but with my team, we can stall them, no problem."
After hearing Lin Yiâs analysis, Liu Hong didnât refuse further.
With Lin Yiâs capabilities, if he wanted to escape, no one could stop him.
"Letâs proceed with this plan," Liu Hong said:
"Ning Che, you stay behind, and Team Three will provide them with information support."
"Not a problem."
Even though Qiu Yuluoâs Team Two is skilled in this kind of mission, other teams are equally competent.
"The meeting is adjourned. Everyone, take your teams back and prepare."
"Yes!"
The three of them left, returning to their respective offices.
"Lin Bro, what did Boss Liu say?" Xiao Bing stepped forward to ask.
"Flame Dragonâs people are coming back tonight, led by Luyu. Weâre going to assist them," Lin Yi replied.
"Got it. Iâll go prepare the equipment."
"No rush," Lin Yi said:
"Including Luyu, there are a total of six people returning, so safety shouldnât be a concern. We need to be prepared for unexpected events."
The team was puzzled, but Yu Siying was the first to understand.
"Boss, you mean there might be others targeting them as well?"
"Smart," Lin Yi said:
"Most likely, aside from Storm Team and Special Service Team Three, Skull Squad might, though itâs highly unlikely. Our task is to ambush on the outskirts, not letting them near, while the rest is left to Flame Dragon and Team Four."
"Got it," Yu Siying said:
"Do we need to prepare anything else?"
"Prepare a few fishing boats. Letâs have some seafood to energize ourselves for tonightâs mission," Lin Yi suggested.
"Alright!"
The team left eagerly, and with clear roles, by noon, they had already secured a few fishing boats. They then loaded their equipment and everyone set out to sea.
Several hours passed, and it was around midnight, with the sea breeze slightly cool.
Lin Yi and the rest of his team were enjoying beer and seafood, having a hearty meal.
Meanwhile, nearby were several real fishing boats meant to mislead others.
"Boss, weâre drifting farther and farther away, almost off course. Wonât we miss them?" Zhang Chaoyue said.
"How many times do I have to teach you? Learn to read the map," Lin Yi said:
"Weâre at a location they have to pass. As soon as they appear on the map, we can intercept them. If they donât take this route, they canât reach Luyuâs ship on time, so donât worry."
"Boss, youâre mighty," Zhang Chaoyue said.
"Stop babbling. Still got half a cup left? Are you keeping it to feed the fish? Finish it," Lin Yi said.
"Boss, this is the strong stuff," Zhang Chaoyue protested.
"What does it matter if itâs strong? Drink up," Lin Yi insisted.
"Boss, thereâs a ship on the map!" Yu Siying exclaimed.
Lin Yi glanced at the map, tossed his half-eaten crab aside.
"Spread the net, letâs get to work!"
