The next morning, Chen Yu was awakened from his sweet dream by a fragrant aroma.
He got out of bed, quickly washed up, and went to the living room.
The table was already laden with a large spread of delicious food, quite a feast.
Qiao Meng hummed a little tune as she busied herself in the kitchen; it was clear that she seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood today.
"Mr. Chen Yu, you're awake? Come and try my new recipe; I hope you'll like it." Qiao Meng said as she brought out a steaming plate of freshly cooked food from the kitchen, her face beaming with pride and anticipation.
"Xiao Qiao, are you feeling better?" Chen Yu asked with concern.
Last night, Qiao Meng suddenly said she wasn't feeling well and rushed into her room to sleep. No matter how much Lin Lele called, she wouldn't open the door. Chen Yu thought something had happened to her, which made him worried for a while. After all, Qiao Meng was his chef, and if something really happened to her, he wouldn't have anything to eat every day.
Hearing Chen Yu's concerned tone, Qiao Meng blushed slightly and nodded gently.
In fact, she hadn't slept a wink last night, but when she came out in the morning and saw Han Wantong still wrapped up tightly and tied up on the sofa, the gloom in her heart was swept away. The huge psychological gap made her feel great today.
"Sir, you have no idea how much trouble it was for me to keep an eye on this woman last night," Lin Lele complained. "She was so unruly, thinking about escaping all night. I think she deserves a good lesson!"
"Hehe, alright, untie Ms. Han now," Chen Yu said with a smile.
"What?" Lin Lele exclaimed in astonishment. "She's not behaving herself, why should we untie her?"
"Stop talking nonsense and do as I say," Chen Yu snapped.
Helpless, Lin Lele had no choice but to obey Chen Yu's orders and reluctantly untied the ropes binding Han Wantong.
Then he tore off the tape from her mouth.
Unexpectedly, Han Wantong didn't shout or scream. She first took a few deep breaths, then said coldly to Chen Yu, "What exactly do you want? If you're trying to make me submit this way, let me tell you, that's absolutely impossible!"
“Ms. Han, you’ve misunderstood. I was actually moved by your resilience and indomitable will,” Chen Yu said sincerely. “Hehe, let’s eat first. After breakfast, I’ll let you leave.”
Han Wantong frowned upon hearing this, unsure of Chen Yu's true intentions. However, she was certain of one thing: this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
However, Chen Yu had no intention of answering Han Wantong's questions. He began to enjoy his breakfast, eating slowly and savoring each bite, as if he were not only tasting the food but also enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.
Qiao Meng also sat down at the dining table and began to enjoy the fruits of her labor. Occasionally, she would add a cup of hot tea for Chen Yu. Her face always wore that warm smile, as if all the disputes had nothing to do with her. She only wished to bring a sense of peace and warmth to everyone on this morning.
Although Lin Lele still had many questions, she could only silently obey since her superior had given the order.
She shoveled breakfast into her mouth, occasionally glancing furtively at Han Wantong with a mixture of curiosity and wariness in her eyes.
Han Wantong hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of a dish in front of her.
To her surprise, the dish tasted exceptionally delicious, and she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
"Commander, we've compiled the results of last night's interrogation. Would you like to take a look now?" At that moment, the voice of "Militia Company Commander" Lei Tao came from outside the door, interrupting the atmosphere at the dining table.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu put down his chopsticks and replied to the door, "Okay, bring it in."
Qiao Meng, observing the situation, immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and ran to open the door for Lei Tao.
At the same time, Chen Yu glanced at Lin Lele, who was still eating heartily, and couldn't help but feel emotional. If it weren't for the fact that Lin Lele could fly a fighter jet, he would have replaced this unqualified secretary!
Soon, the car door opened, and Lei Tao was slightly taken aback when he saw the peaceful scene inside. However, he quickly recovered and respectfully handed the documents in his hand to Qiao Meng, who then passed them on to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu immediately flipped through the pages. As he read the contents, he would occasionally frown, revealing a hint of surprise, and then nod slightly.
Upon seeing this, Han Wantong's heart skipped a beat. Although she was unsure whether the documents in Chen Yu's hand contained any substantial information about the "Frost Alliance," she still felt uneasy. She wanted to rush up and tear the documents in Chen Yu's hand to shreds, but she knew it would be futile.
"Very good, you've done a good job. Go and rest now." Chen Yu smiled with satisfaction after reading the contents of the document.
"Yes." Lei Tao nodded, and was about to leave when Chen Yu called him back.
“I know everything. The brothers of the ‘Frost Alliance’ also worked hard last night. Treat them well. After I finish my business here, I will personally see them off,” Chen Yu added.
"Understood." Lei Tao accepted the order, exited the RV, and went to give Chen Yu his instructions.
"Chen Yu, what did you mean just now? What do you know?" Han Wantong finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked anxiously.
"Hehe, guess." Chen Yu waved the document in his hand, a playful look on his face.
"Impossible, are you bluffing me?" Han Wantong frowned, staring intently at Chen Yu, trying to find a flaw in his seemingly relaxed smile.
"Heh, do you think I need to use such methods on you?" Chen Yu sneered. "Based on the information provided by your teammates, your 'Frost Alliance' currently has about 300,000 official members, of which the armed force, the 'Frost Legion,' numbers about 4,000."
"Do you need me to continue?" Chen Yu looked at Han Wantong with a half-smile, his face full of mockery.
"Impossible! They...they couldn't possibly have told you this!" Han Wantong's voice trembled with shock. She stared at Chen Yu in disbelief, as if trying to find some flaw in his seemingly calm face. But Chen Yu just smiled calmly, a smile that contained both confidence in victory and an expectation of Han Wantong's reaction.
"Hehe, Ms. Han, these things weren't told to me by them," Chen Yu said with a faint smile. "It was you who told me all of this."
"You're talking nonsense...you're spouting rubbish! How could I possibly tell you this? I'd rather die than betray the 'Alliance'!" Han Wantong retorted emotionally, her eyes wide open as if spitting fire. She suddenly stood up, but due to the prolonged restraints, she staggered and almost fell.
"Whether it is or not is not something you can decide," Chen Yu said calmly. "By the way, I can tell you very clearly now that I have my eye on the 'Frost Alliance'!"
