Xing Zhicheng is someone who doesn't like to settle scores later.
He felt that since the mission had already failed, nothing could make up for it, and the outcome was already decided, so why should he be harsh on his subordinates?
Moreover, today's blunder had nothing to do with their abilities.
It was just an accident.
Xing Zhicheng didn't mind. He thought that the R team leader had been the action team leader for so long, and his mentality should be similar to his own. But now, seeing the other party's performance, Xing Zhicheng was speechless.
If you've found the wrong person and failed to bring them back, why are you putting on such a bitter and resentful expression?
Do you think I can kill you or what?
“Your members are all elites, every single one of them. Protecting them too much is actually more of an insult to them.”
Xing Zhicheng looked at the leader of Team R. This person's ability was actually quite outstanding. Even among all the action team leaders in the Xing family, he could be ranked among the top.
However, the Xing family's situation is rather unique.
As one of the few super families in China, the Xing family has far too many factions, and factional strife is commonplace.
However, he was not a true core figure within the Xing family.
He's only the third child.
The Third Master of the Xing Family, doesn't that sound impressive?
In reality, there are many more people above Xing Zhicheng.
The patriarch, the second elder brother, the elders in charge of criminal law, and so on and so forth...
Without exception, all of these people were able to overpower Xing Zhicheng, like a heavy boulder pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
Even within the action groups, there were their own factions.
However, due to an accident in his early years, Xing Zhicheng was a step too late and did not have any trusted confidants in the action team.
This mission to Jiang City presents Xing Zhicheng with a good opportunity.
He specifically selected three action teams that had not yet been recruited by the Xing family and brought them all to Jiang City, with the aim of turning them into his own loyal followers.
As for Group R, because it was ridiculed by all the action groups as the bottom of the pack, the core figures of the Xing family would not choose them as their direct subordinates, but Xing Zhicheng didn't care.
Abilities can be cultivated.
However, the Xing family's say in the matter needs to be provided by these action groups.
If it were an ordinary person, Xing Zhicheng wouldn't waste so much time talking to him; he would just offer a few mild criticisms and move on. But the R team leader was different; Xing Zhicheng genuinely wanted to cultivate the R team into his true confidants.
Therefore, it is necessary to say these things.
"Is that so..."
The leader of Team R was taken aback. He always felt that he hadn't done enough, which was why the entire Team R was being ridiculed.
He always wanted to do better.
Good enough to propel the entire R group to a high ranking among the action groups.
But upon hearing these words from Master Xing, the R team leader was immediately filled with shock.
Could it be that all my goals and persistence over the years have been wrong?
Compared to my parental way of handling things, perhaps I should let them face the tasks directly, and it wouldn't hurt for me to delegate a little more authority?
"Go back and think about it slowly. Remember, a leader can't be perfect in every way, nor can he take care of everyone. It's right to care for your team members while completing the task, but don't overwork yourself. You are the leader, the pillar of support for your team members. If you show signs of fatigue, they will too."
Xing Zhicheng shook his head. He had said what he needed to say. Whether the team leader of Group R could understand it or not was up to him.
"Yes... I understand."
The leader of Group R nodded, his expression thoughtful.
Master Xing's guidance opened a door to a new world for him, making the R team leader realize the different choices available.
However, it will take time to fully digest these concepts and put them into action.
It will definitely not be accomplished overnight.
"But Third Master, this misunderstanding..."
The leader of Team R was about to speak when Xing Zhicheng raised his hand to interrupt him: "This mission is not your fault. Your speculation is correct. The Four-Colored Roses do indeed like to use this method to sell the stolen goods they have obtained."
"First, they divide the stolen goods into small portions and sell them in the retail market to confuse us. Then, they take advantage of the chaos to sell the truly valuable stolen goods... They love to use this method, and it's impossible to guard against. Even if I came in person, I couldn't do anything to them. After all, the Four-Colored Rose is the Four-Colored Rose."
Xing Zhicheng let out a deep breath, his withered brows furrowed, his features dark and gloomy.
"But this is just speculation after all. What if it's not true?"
Seeing that Xing Zhicheng had taken his guess as the truth, the R team leader was flattered but also worried that he might mislead Third Master's judgment.
"No... I'm certain now, absolutely certain."
Xing Zhicheng slowly shook his head, then turned to his desk, picked up the tablet he had prepared, opened a photo, and handed it over: "Take a close look. Isn't that the woman with the murderous aura at the end her?"
The leader of Team R took the tablet and was amazed. He thought to himself, "As expected of Master Xing, he can even get that woman's photo so quickly."
Looking down, I saw a little girl with blue hair in the photo, staring blankly at something. Judging from the angle, it was probably taken secretly.
The leader of Team R shuddered. The murderous aura emanating from the other party seemed to be transmitted through the photo. Wen Chenlu had left a deep impression on him, making him not dare to look at her for even a second. He quickly returned the tablet and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, that's right, it's her!"
"That's right..."
Seeing that the R team leader had confirmed it, Xing Zhicheng sighed deeply and then gave a bitter smile: "I both hoped it was her and didn't... Now that you've confirmed it, I'm starting to worry."
"Why? Who is she?"
The leader of Group R was puzzled.
Although this person exudes a strong murderous aura, it shouldn't be enough to make even Master Xing wary, right?
No matter how strong she is, she's still just one person. Can she possibly be stronger than the entire Xing family?
"It was her existence that made me certain that this was definitely the Four-Colored Rose's plan."
"The person you caught shouldn't be entirely a misunderstanding, because if they were truly unaware and bought it from a street stall, then... they definitely wouldn't have made a move. I judge that person to be a customer of Four-Colored Rose, or someone of very high status to Four-Colored Rose."
"Because this blue-haired woman is named Wen Chenlu, codename: Blue Rose."
Xing Zhicheng put down the tablet and slowly closed his eyes: "I'd rather offend the other three roses than be enemies with this killing machine that wields power..."
