Chapter 295: Toying with the Lone Wolf
Aboard the helicopter, Chen Qingdi knew he was being followed. He glanced calmly at Chen Yuan and said, "Don't panic. These people are more than they seem."
Chen Yuan knew he couldn't afford to panic. He did his best to calm himself and nodded.
"If we fight them in the air, we'll have no chance of winning. Our only option is to lure them to a place where we have the advantage before we engage them."
Chen Qingdi looked out the window and said calmly, "See that small island? We'll go there."
Soon, both their helicopter and the ones pursuing them arrived at the island.
However, the pursuers had no idea this was a trap Chen Qingdi had already laid for them.
Once the helicopters landed on the island, Chen Qingdi and Chen Yuan led the security team and swiftly surrounded the pursuers.
They realized these pursuers weren't Lone Wolf's quarry. Lone Wolf was leading a team from the other side, but his true targets were Chen Qingdi and Chen Yuan.
Seeing Lone Wolf appear, Chen Qingdi said calmly, "Lone Wolf. Do you want to live, or do you want to die?"
When Lone Wolf saw Chen Qingdi and Chen Yuan, a flash of terror crossed his eyes.
He didn't realize this was Chen Qingdi's trap; he thought he had walked into an ambush. He tightened his grip on the gun in his hand, hesitated, and then said, "I..."
Chen Qingdi's calm voice cut him off.
"You should know that all of your companions are already in our hands. If you want to die, I can arrange for you to die with them. But if you want to live, you'll do as I say."
A look of hesitation and helplessness flickered in Lone Wolf's eyes. He knew his situation was dire.
He thought of his family and friends, of his own life. After a moment of internal struggle, he finally made his decision.
He lowered his gun and said bitterly, "I... I choose to live."
Chen Qingdi said calmly, "Good. Then you'll do as I say. First, tell us everything you know about Medical God Island."
Lone Wolf took a deep breath and said, "Medical God Island is a mysterious place. It's said to possess immense power and resources. Wu Tian is the Island Master of Medical God Island, and he controls everything there. I'm one of the assassins he sent out. This mission was..."
Lone Wolf told them everything. As Chen Qingdi and Chen Yuan listened to his account, the picture began to clear up in their minds.
They now knew the island held immense power and resources. They would have to proceed with caution to avoid being detected and attacked by the forces there.
Chen Qingdi said calmly, "Very good. You've done well. Now, I want you to take us to Medical God Island."
Lone Wolf's heart skipped a beat. He thought he was out of danger, but he never expected to have to take them to Medical God Island. After another moment of internal conflict, he finally nodded. "All... alright."
And so, Chen Qingdi, Chen Yuan, and Lone Wolf boarded a helicopter and set off for Medical God Island.
At the airport on Medical God Island, a private jet slowly descended for landing.
Chen Qingdi, the master of the island, stood on the runway, his eyes deep and resolute. Beside him stood a cold-blooded assassin, codenamed Lone Wolf.
As the plane came to a steady halt on the runway, Chen Qingdi turned to Lone Wolf, his eyes holding an unfathomable depth.
"Lone Wolf, you're still alive for one reason: because I want you to be," Chen Qingdi said, his tone even and calm.
"Because Medical God Island is now my territory. The Island Master, Wu Tian, and his entire family are now all slaves."
A flicker of astonishment crossed Lone Wolf's eyes. He looked at Chen Qingdi, as if gauging his power and resolve. Then, he slowly knelt to the ground, bowed his head, and said, "I... I am willing to pledge my allegiance to you."
Chen Qingdi gave a faint smile, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority. "That was a wise choice. The options were to die with Wu Tian, or to pledge your allegiance to me."
On Medical God Island, Chen Qingdi and Lone Wolf stood facing each other.
Chen Qingdi glanced at the cold, emotionless Lone Wolf. 'I've made up my mind,' he thought, knowing the decision would change both their fates.
"Lone Wolf, our Medical God Island is now without an Island Master. It's a land without a lord." Chen Qingdi took a deep breath, looking at the man who was once merely an assassin. "I've decided to have you act in my stead as this island's administrator, to oversee all of the Wu Family slaves here."
A flicker of confusion crossed Lone Wolf's eyes. He lowered his head in thought for a moment, then looked up at Chen Qingdi, his gaze shining with resolute light.
"Remember, their lives are not in danger, but you can't let them live too comfortably either." Chen Qingdi's words made his meaning clear to Lone Wolf.
"I swear my allegiance to you. I will manage this place and keep everything in perfect order," Lone Wolf said, his voice filled with unwavering resolve.
Just then, Chen Qingdi's confidant, Chen Yuan, walked over, followed by ten members of his security team.
He smiled at Lone Wolf and said, "To prevent any mishaps, I've specifically left these ten men here. On paper, they're here to help you manage the island's affairs. In reality, they're also here to keep an eye on things."
Lone Wolf glanced at the ten men, sneering inwardly.
'He didn't need their help, but he wouldn't refuse their presence. After all, this was Chen Qingdi's will.'
"Chen Yuan, you need to remember this as well," Chen Qingdi said. "These men are not your subordinates. They are Lone Wolf's."
Chen Qingdi's words made Chen Yuan pause, but he quickly understood the intention. Chen Qingdi was telling him not to interfere with Lone Wolf's administration, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"I understand." Chen Yuan nodded slightly, then said to Lone Wolf, "I'll make sure they follow your orders."
Lone Wolf shot Chen Yuan a cold glance, then turned back to Chen Qingdi. "I will do everything in my power to keep this place in perfect order."
Chen Qingdi nodded, satisfied. He turned and walked toward the shore. "Remember, you are my man now. You will obey my commands, no matter when or where." His words echoed in the sea breeze.
Lone Wolf stood by the shore, watching Chen Qingdi's retreating figure. He silently swore to himself that he would keep this place in perfect order.
After returning to Bright Moon Company, Chen Qingdi smiled at the crowd before him. "Alright, I've finished handling our external affairs. Now, it's time for some internal reorganization at the Mingyue Group."
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Everyone had been incredibly busy lately. As Bright Moon Company was such a massive conglomerate, protecting their own interests within it was their top priority.
If their own interests couldn't be guaranteed, there would be no point in following Chen Qingdi.
"Starting today, we're opening a new subsidiary," Chen Qingdi announced. "We will also be selecting a manager for it, who will receive five percent of the group's shares."
