She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1443 - 1513: Mission Begins

"When I came in, I saw you were selecting personnel for the mission to Country M. When will it be done?"

"Tomorrow morning," Xu Qigang replied concisely.

"So soon?"

"I’m selecting, not training." He put down the pen in his hand and tiredly rubbed his brow.

He personally drafted the action plan for this mission, keeping it highly confidential and detailed. It included everything that might happen in Country M and how to resolve and handle them.

Most importantly, each person receives something different.

"When do we depart?"

"Tomorrow."

Su Hai couldn’t help but widen his eyes in admiration, "You’re something else, kid!" Xu Qigang’s eyes flickered with a hint of darkness. The trip to Country M was hard-won; only he knows how much effort he’s put into it.

"It’s mainly because Minister Hai helped, otherwise it wouldn’t be this fast." "Alright, we’ll meet at the airport tomorrow."

"Okay!" Xu Qigang nodded, suddenly recalling their previous phone discussion, a thoughtful expression appearing on his handsome face.

"I want to ask you about the Feng Family, what kind of family are they? Why have I never heard of them before?"

Su Hai sneered, "Of course you’ve never heard of them. We’d be fools to voluntarily reveal we have overseas relations, right? And that Feng Family, not a single decent person among them, the elder wishes they had no relation with them. Even if they sought us out, we’d deny it." Su Hai remembered how the elder used to speak of the Feng Family for an hour straight, full of grievances.

He talked about how the Feng Family looked down on him as a mere commoner and tried to break them apart. If not for their mother’s unwavering support, they wouldn’t even have been together for those few brats, and so on.

Growing up, Su Hai specifically investigated the Feng Family on Shanghai Beach, learning about this wealthy, influential family that dominated the scene in the 1930s.

They were business-savvy, with a rich heritage, and their descendants were extremely intelligent. It was a prosperous family for over two hundred years. The wealth accumulated over these two centuries is unimaginable.

The Feng Family thrived for so many years by accumulating good deeds, donating funds and grain during famine years, and building roads and bridges in peaceful years. Yet this highly praised family is riddled with brutal internal strife, with many deaths in each generation’s in-fighting. Unlike other families, they don’t only select heirs from the direct line; for the Feng Family, as long as you’re capable, it doesn’t matter if you’re direct lineage or not.

"This family is insane, Ningning must keep her distance. Absolutely do not get entangled with this problematic family, especially not in their succession battles. Besides, we don’t need it, our Su Family is no less than theirs even without the Feng Family."

Xu Qigang’s expression grew increasingly grim, "I’m afraid it’s already too late. Xiao Ning didn’t elaborate in her letter, but we need to prepare for the worst."

"Then let me handle this matter," Su Hai volunteered.

Surprised, Xu Qigang glanced at him, "Are you sure? As a junior, can you really maintain control in front of your own uncle?"

"It seems I can’t." Su Hai looked a bit awkward, being scheming and ruthless, but he couldn’t truly be cold-hearted when it came to family.

"Once we’re in Country M, keep your distance from the Feng Family," Xu Qigang sternly warned.

"Alright, then."

At that moment, the phone on Xu Qigang’s desk rang. He picked it up and, upon hearing the voice, greeted immediately.
