The secretary, watching the Governor blinded by rage, feared he might do something irreversible in his irrationality.
He immediately began to offer advice.
"Governor, please don't be angry!"
"There's still a chance to salvage this situation..."
Upon hearing this, the Governor's expression did not soften at all; he remained furious, pointing at the documents he had smashed to the ground and roaring.
"Wan Chai Chief Superintendent Nero, Central Chief Superintendent Riel, and that Allen from the Garrison!"
"These three traitors of the empire have become Gao Ren's lapdogs!"
"In front of everyone on Hong Kong Island, bypass me, the Governor, and directly promote Gao Ren's woman and give her a raise!"
"Tell me! How is there any chance of getting this back?"
To be honest, if he weren't a secretary, but the Governor of Hong Kong...
His current emotional state may not be much more stable than the Governor's...
Damn it, the battle hasn't even started yet, and their own people are already surrendering and showing their loyalty!
What's the point of playing this game?!
But since Nero and his men were able to surrender, they had become completely aligned with the Governor of Hong Kong.
Even if I wanted to surrender, Gao Ren wouldn't!
“Governor, Nero and his men surrendered to Gao Ren only because they were afraid of the power of the North!”
"Since that's the case,"
"Then why don't we find some people who aren't afraid of the power of the North to kill Gao Ren!"
Upon hearing this, the Governor's expression softened slightly.
yes!
I'm so angry at these traitors like Nerlaus that I've lost my mind.
If the locals don't dare to touch Gao Ren, then just find someone from out of town to do it!
"Go and contact Marumaru's side. Aren't they planning to send someone to Hong Kong Island to plant their flag?"
"Tell them that no matter how many people they send, I'll take them all!"
"Also, tell them... I'll pretend I didn't see them use guns!"
Even after meeting the Governor, he still wanted to go to such lengths; the secretary couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again.
At the same time, I cursed inwardly!
Grass!
Of course you're not afraid of playing like this. Even if you lose, you won't die because you have the title of Governor of Hong Kong!
But what about me!
The way you're doing this, aren't you pushing me to the front?
You have the title of Governor of Hong Kong as a get-out-of-jail-free card, but what about me?
If you really piss Gao Ren off, even if he doesn't dare to touch you, surely he wouldn't dare to touch me, his secretary!
"Governor, there's really no need for this!"
"Hong Kong Island is too far from God and too close to the north!"
"Killing Gao Ren with a knife is because he's incompetent... but killing Gao Ren with a gun!"
"Doesn't this just give the north an opportunity to make a move ahead of time?!"
"Don't even mention using a gun on Gao Ren, you can't even use a gun on Gao Ren's women!"
"Who knows if Gao Ren has given his woman any new identity while he's been in the north these past two days!"
The Governor of Hong Kong noticed the nervous look in his secretary's eyes, and a meaningful expression quickly appeared on his face.
"You don't have some other idea in mind, do you?"
Upon hearing this, the secretary instantly sobered up.
"How is that possible!"
"If others surrender, Gao Ren will accept them; if I surrender, will he accept me?"
"Besides, what benefit would my surrender to Gao Ren bring him!"
To others, turning their secretary into a spy simply means obtaining firsthand information about them.
This allows for targeted deployment.
But now, the confrontation between himself and Gao Ren is already an open affair.
Why would he need to spend money to poach his own secretary?
"You know that's good."
"Go take care of the business."
Watching his secretary's departing figure, the Governor remained silent for several minutes before finally picking up the phone and calling Fok Siu-tong.
As things have developed to this point, regardless of the outcome of this struggle, whether one wins or loses,
I can't even hold onto this position anymore!
Since that's the case, why should he be polite?
Gao Ren can't die, so he'll find another way to make Gao Ren feel pain!
He wanted to completely push Huo Zhaotang, this ambitious man, to the opposite side of the North. As long as he lost, he would hand over the economic power to Huo Zhaotang!
On the other side, Gao Ren's villa on Hong Kong Island,
"Mr. Wang, please take care. Be sure to come early when the baby has his 100-day celebration!"
"Definitely! Definitely!"
After seeing off another person who had come to offer gifts and try to build connections, Au Wing-yan's professional smile faded, replaced by a tired expression.
Dealing with these people is much more tiring than fighting a lawsuit!
As soon as Ou Yongen finished speaking, Ruby handed her a glass of honey water.
"This must be the seventh batch to arrive today!"
"Aside from the four major families of Hong Kong Island, have all the second-tier families of Hong Kong Island arrived?"
When Ruby questioned her, Au Wing-yan, as the woman besides Fong Kit-ha who knew the Hong Kong family best among Ko Yan's women, said...
While Fang Jiexia was busy getting a promotion and a raise, the task of receiving these families fell to her.
"Besides the Ma family, all the other second-rate families have arrived!"
Upon hearing the name "Ma family," Ruby's gaze immediately fell on Yue Huizhen, who was sitting next to Mina, asking what it felt like to be pregnant.
"Ah Zhen, what's Ma Dayuan up to lately?"
When Ruby asked her a question, Yue Huizhen remained silent for a few seconds before replying.
"Sister Ruby, Ma Dayuan has been very well-behaved lately. He hasn't made any other moves and has even ignored my expansion!"
"And according to what I've heard... Ma Dayuan seems to be preparing to give up his business in Hong Kong Island,"
