Chapter 750: Stirring The Storm
So it is a power struggle over an official position.
Li Xiaofei smiled. It was not entirely unexpected. The Chief Evolution Officer of a base planet was a position of real power and wealth. Who wouldn’t be envious?
This time, the forces behind Director Hu Shuo, along with the Exploding Star Gang, wanted to use the excuse that he had been stationed on Base Planet 1818 for a long time to forcefully promote him into the position. Their true intention was to use him as a means to gain access to the resources of Base Planet 1818.
There were factions everywhere in Chongque City. Thus, it was only natural that other forces would be interested in this position as well. The middle-aged man in front of him appeared to come from a distinguished background.
He was probably one of the candidates too. But he came to threaten me?
Li Xiaofei let out a cold laugh. “You’re lucky I’m in a good mood today and don’t feel like killing anyone. Get lost. If you want the Chief Evolution Officer’s position, go fight for it yourself. We’ll compete based on our abilities.”
The middle-aged man’s face unexpectedly turned cold. “Li Xiaofei, don’t mistake kindness for weakness.”
Li Xiaofei’s eyes narrowed as he replied, “Say one more useless word and see what happens.”
He had already been quite patient today.
“Do you know who I am? I—” The middle-aged man had an arrogant expression, but before he could finish his sentence...
Slap.
Li Xiaofei struck the man hard across the face. The movement was as fast as lightning. The people around them didn’t even have time to react. Even the middle-aged man himself hadn’t managed to dodge.
