Chapter 2754: Chapter 2754: I Won’t Dare Again
"What a load of crap!"
The boss dismissively curled his lips.
Does he look like a fool? He clearly saw those two people’s faces, there’s no way they’re Qian Jiyun and his wife.
If they were really them, do you think we could still keep an eye on them here? They would’ve noticed us ages ago! Those two have freakishly high cultivation levels, they’d spot us watching them immediately if it were true.
Only someone like Gong Cheng, with low cultivation levels, wouldn’t be able to detect them.
The boss only has to speak a few words, the ones doing the grunt work are us, like now—staking out here without even having decent meals.
If the boss finds out Gong Cheng’s place had two new faces, it would be us who’d have to investigate further.
They’re just newcomers, no matter how much we investigate, it’s not going to be Qian Jiyun and his wife, and we’d end up working ourselves to exhaustion, not to mention possibly getting noticed by Fu Ming and Lan Zhiyi.
Avoiding extra trouble is better. He decided to just continue the stakeout here.
"But those two..."
"I said they’re not them, so they’re not. Don’t you understand human language?" The boss shot him a fierce glare as the little brother opened his mouth.
Who’s the boss here, him or me? If he keeps blabbering nonsense, does he believe I won’t take care of this little brat? Trying to cause trouble for me and impress the boss?
Doesn’t this kid know his place? He dares to compete for favor and trust from the boss? Get lost!
"Keep watching, if you keep yammering, I’ll kill you!"
Upon hearing this, the underling finally dared not speak again. With his current cultivation level, he couldn’t beat the boss, not even uttering words freely was possible, it was truly frustrating.
Yet he really doubted the identities of those two new faces, but unfortunately, the boss wouldn’t believe his words. What should he do?
"I understand, boss. I’ll go see if lunch is ready. I’m starving." He thought of finding an excuse to leave for a while, maybe send a message to the boss.
If those two really are someone significant, wouldn’t he be a great contributor? The boss would surely promote him.
"You stay put, don’t think I don’t know your little schemes. They’ll naturally bring the food over when it’s ready, no need for you to rush it."
The boss glared coldly at the underling.
He too climbed his way up from an underling. Does this guy really think the boss knows nothing? Mess with his plans, and he won’t hesitate to have one less underling.
The underling clammed up immediately, mainly due to sensing a murderous aura emanating from the boss.
"Boss, I was wrong. I won’t ever do it again."
He hurriedly apologized, accepting it as his bad luck, following such a cautious boss who guarded against his subordinates to the point of giving him no chance to stand out.
"Hmph!"
The boss snorted coldly, ignoring him, and continued keeping watch.
Would Qian Jiyun pass through here? If they came from other planes, then all this watching would be for nothing.
But still, there’s the highest possibility here; much better than being sent to watch the entrances to other planes.
"Watch closely. If you fail, I’ll kill you!"
"Yes, boss, understood."
The underling responded reluctantly, still suspecting those two new faces were not simple.
