Overlord Star

Chapter 456 Relentless Pursuit

"Are you sure you can find that big boss from this information?" Jiang Yi asked.

"Mm!" Dongfang Mei nodded and replied, "That big boss was an orphan as a child, grew up in an orphanage, and was later adopted by a foreign couple. After graduating from university, he returned to the country to start his own business. He was schemed against and lost everything, but he made a comeback and founded Wan Hui Company..."

Jiang Yi's brows furrowed slightly.

"How do you know so much?" Jiang Yi asked.

"A while ago, I secretly infiltrated Wan Hui Company's secret room and found some information about the big boss of Wan Hui Company. Unfortunately, the information I found was too scarce, and I can only search through this material. I put in a lot of effort to find this information," Dongfang Mei said.

"Thank you!" Jiang Yi said.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mei smiled, "I'm your girlfriend, so it's natural for me to help you. You're being polite to me now, and I remember you used to not be polite with me!"

"Even among our own people, politeness is necessary!" Jiang Yi said, "After all, you've helped me a great deal this time!"

After speaking, Jiang Yi fell silent and began to examine the materials. Jiang Yi was very focused, completely engrossed in the documents. It wasn't until late into the night that Jiang Yi stopped. After looking at the materials for so long, he hadn't found the big boss behind Wan Hui Company, which left Jiang Yi somewhat disappointed. However, Jiang Yi believed he would eventually find him. Dongfang Mei wouldn't lie to him.

Jiang Yi got up and looked at Dongfang Mei, noticing that she had already fallen asleep, her breath emanating evenly from her nose. To avoid waking Dongfang Mei, Jiang Yi tiptoed and left the room.

The night passed without incident!

The next morning, after Jiang Yi got up, he checked his phone and found several missed calls. Shi Jin had called three times! Ye Yanran had called more than a dozen times! Jiang Yi put away his phone and went to Dongfang Mei's room, finding that she was already awake and lying in bed reading a magazine.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Dongfang Mei asked.

"Not bad!" Jiang Yi replied.

"It's time for me to take my medicine. The medicine is in the drawer!" Dongfang Mei said.

Jiang Yi opened the drawer, found the medicine, and handed it to Dongfang Mei, then poured her a glass of water. After Dongfang Mei took her medicine, she asked Jiang Yi, "Are you hungry?"

Jiang Yi was a little stunned! But he soon understood! He guessed that Dongfang Mei was craving something and wanted him to cook for her, which was why she asked if he was hungry.

"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Yi asked.

"Anything. As long as you make it, I'll like it!" Dongfang Mei said.

"Alright, I'll go buy some ingredients and make something delicious for you." Jiang Yi bid farewell and then left the room.

As soon as he reached the hall, he saw Liu Hong and Dongfang Xun. Judging by their appearance, they had been up for a long time.

"Good morning!" Liu Hong greeted Jiang Yi with a smile.

"Morning!" Jiang Yi replied.

"Xiao Mei told me your cooking is better than that of a five-star hotel chef. If you have nothing else to do, why don't you make a couple of dishes for us? I'd like to try them too!" Liu Hong said to Jiang Yi with a smile.

Jiang Yi blinked in surprise. He remembered Liu Hong had eaten his cooking before. When Liu Hong went to Jiang Province, he had cooked two meals for them. He suspected Dongfang Mei was craving his cooking but didn't want to ask directly, so she found this excuse. Jiang Yi couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Dongfang Mei and Liu Hong were indeed mother and daughter; they acted and spoke exactly the same.

"Sure!" Jiang Yi agreed! Then, Jiang Yi left the hall, preparing to go to the supermarket.

As he reached the villa entrance, Dongfang Xun followed him.

"I didn't expect you to be a chef! Our family will have good food from now on!" Dongfang Xun grinned at Jiang Yi.

"I'm not a chef, I just know how to make a few simple dishes!" After speaking, Jiang Yi asked Dongfang Xun, "Do you need something from me?"

"Nothing!" Dongfang Xun replied, "I'm just taking a walk. Why don't I go with you to buy ingredients? Let's buy more and cook more dishes. I want to taste your cooking later too."

Jiang Yi nodded. Seeing that Jiang Yi had agreed, Dongfang Xun went to get the car. Jiang Yi couldn't help but smile. Dongfang Xun had changed a lot; he no longer liked to cause trouble for him like before.

"How is the matter with Wan Hui Company progressing? When do you plan to make your move?" Dongfang Xun asked Jiang Yi.

"You know about Wan Hui Company?" Jiang Yi asked.

"Of course, I know. Not only do I know about Wan Hui Company, but I also know that you and my sister are planning to take down Wan Hui Company. Many people are involved, including Li Meimei and Liu Xiaoming, and many others!" Dongfang Xun said.

Jiang Yi's brows furrowed again. It seemed Dongfang Xun had known about this for a long time!

"I will handle the Wan Hui Company matter. You don't need to get involved!" Jiang Yi said, "Wan Hui Company is an assassin organization. Once you get involved, there will be a constant threat to your life. You don't need to take this risk."

"I've wanted to take down Wan Hui Company for a long time! To be honest, I've had my eye on Wan Hui Company for several years. Because Wan Hui Company is too powerful, I couldn't take them down. I could only kill a few Wan Hui Company assassins occasionally!" Dongfang Xun said.

"Why do you want to target Wan Hui Company!" Jiang Yi asked.

"Because I have an irreconcilable feud with Wan Hui Company!" A murderous aura appeared on Dongfang Xun's face as he said, "When I was five years old, my entire family was murdered, and only I miraculously survived. I was adopted by the Dongfang family. For years, I've been investigating the truth behind my family's deaths, and my efforts were not in vain. I finally found a clue. The killers who murdered my entire family were assassins from Wan Hui Company!"

Jiang Yi was stunned! He hadn't expected Dongfang Xun to have such a deep hatred for Wan Hui Company.

"My mother and sister don't know about this. I've never mentioned it to them. I've been planning this in secret. I'm telling you this because I want to join forces with you to take down Wan Hui Company," Dongfang Xun turned to look at Jiang Yi. "You alone will find it difficult to take down Wan Hui Company. Only by joining forces can we have a chance!"

Jiang Yi's brows furrowed once more.

"No!" Jiang Yi directly refused to join forces.

"Why?" Dongfang Xun asked.

"I will take down Wan Hui Company. You don't need to participate. Don't worry, I have a ninety percent chance of taking down Wan Hui Company!" Jiang Yi said.

"You have such a high chance?" Dongfang Xun seemed a little disbelieving. He said, "Wan Hui Company is full of assassins, and many of them are highly skilled. How can you take down Wan Hui Company alone!"
