"Africa."
With a cold reply, the burly man tied Zhu Shengkang's hands and feet.
"What, Africa...?"
Zhu Shengkang was completely dumbfounded. Why did he want to go to Africa? No, he didn't want to go to Africa. All his connections and foreign friends were Westerners, as were his supporters.
If he went to Africa, and it turned out to be a turbulent place, his life might even be in danger. He would rather be a pariah in China than go to Africa.
"Who are you people, and why are you sending me to Africa?" Zhu Shengkang shouted.
"Who sent you?!"
"Don't you know who you've offended? Why are you asking us?"
The burly man with broad shoulders and a thick waist answered.
Who did I offend?!
Zhu Shengkang immediately fell into his memories. He had indeed offended quite a few people, but although they resented him, they didn't have the power to do so. If they could have dealt with him earlier, they wouldn't have had to wait until today. Therefore, he must have offended someone recently.
Who did he offend recently?
In an instant, Ye Chen's image appeared in Zhu Shengkang's mind. Ye Chen was the only person he had offended recently.
Wow, Ye Chen's connections and influence have already extended overseas?!
Zhu Shengkang was dumbfounded. This was something he never expected. It was one thing that Ye Chen had blocked him in China and possessed considerable power, but how could he have connections and influence abroad as well?
He hadn't even finished making the maliciously edited video targeting Ye Chen yet, and he hadn't had a chance to use his connections to blacklist Ye Chen internationally after arriving abroad.
Now, he's about to be sent to Africa?
"No...no...no...I don't want to go to Africa..."
Zhu Shengkang shook his head repeatedly. He even tried to bribe these people, but was ruthlessly rejected.
"What if I end up in some turbulent place?"
Zhu Shengkang was extremely flustered.
"Don't worry, the place you're going to is safe, there's no war."
The burly man with broad shoulders and a thick waist smiled and spoke to Zhu Shengkang.
There was no war, which was good. Zhu Shengkang felt a little relieved and was no longer so afraid.
But a single sentence from the burly man caused Zhu Shengkang to break down once again.
"You're just going there to mine."
He's going to Africa to mine for minerals!
The conditions for mining in Africa are self-evident. Zhu Shengkang broke down again. He wanted to say something, but the strong man directly covered his mouth.
Zhu Shengkang was utterly desperate. All his plans, his bright future, had ended before they even began.
At this moment, he truly regretted it. He shouldn't have offended Ye Chen, and he certainly shouldn't have tried so hard to please foreigners. Wouldn't it have been better if he had just stayed a university professor?!
Now, it's all too late.
Time flies, and the day that all the students were "extremely looking forward to" finally arrived.
In the first class, when the exam papers were handed out, Ye Chen answered the questions seriously. Last semester, he handed in his paper too early, which even drew the proctor's questioning. This time, he would take his time.
When Ye Chen put down his pen and looked at the Patek Philippe on his wrist, he felt a little embarrassed. Less than twenty minutes had passed since the start of the exam.
Sigh, I answered the questions too quickly, even faster than last time.
However, since he had already finished answering the questions, there was no need to stay any longer. Ye Chen got up and prepared to hand in his paper.
This time, although Ye Chen had more time to hand in his paper than last time, none of the proctors stopped him.
"Student Ye has finished writing and can leave now."
The proctor accepted the exam paper with utmost politeness and even offered to escort Ye Chen out.
The proctor clearly knew Ye Chen and was aware of Ye Chen's super academic abilities, so he didn't question Ye Chen in the slightest.
After easily finishing his first exam, Ye Chen walked boredly toward the parking lot.
On the way, Ye Chen received a call from the Wuzong Private Detective Agency. Previously, Ye Chen had sent the Wuzong Private Detective Agency to investigate that mysterious reporter.
Ye Chen initially thought they had found specific information, but the head of the Wuzong Private Detective Agency immediately apologized to Ye Chen with immense remorse:
"Boss, we failed in our duties. Please punish us."
"You haven't been able to find any information about the other party?"
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow. Even the Wuzong Private Detective Agency had things it hadn't uncovered.
"Boss, the other party is a top-notch detective, even better than our agency's best detective in every aspect. He didn't leave behind a single useful piece of information."
"The only information we found was that he is currently in Beijing."
The head of the Wuzong Private Detective Agency explained to Ye Chen that their agency was considered top-tier in the country, ranking among the top, but not the absolute best.
This time, the mysterious reporter that the boss ordered them to investigate was actually a top-notch investigator with even greater skills. According to the head of the Wuzong Private Detective Agency, the other party's abilities were probably among the best, not only in China but also internationally.
Their detective agency isn't powerful enough.
Following Ye Chen's orders, the Wuzong Private Detective Agency dispatched their most skilled detectives to track the other party as they boarded a plane bound for Beijing.
Upon arriving in Beijing, the mysterious reporter vanished. The detectives from the Wuzong Private Detective Agency searched for an entire day but were unable to locate him. An investigation with the airline also yielded no results.
