Chapter 604: Joining the Organization


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


After chatting idly with Xia Wan for a while, the leader never steered the conversation towards recruiting Xia Wan into the group.


Lin Chao became a bit restless and finally spoke up. “Leader, did you call Xia


Wan here today for something else more important?”


Seeing Lin Chao so anxious and unable to stay calm, the leader scoffed, “You young man are always impatient. Look at you, even Xia Wan has more patience than you!”


Lin Chao bowed his head in silence, not asking further.


At that moment, it seemed as if the leader remembered something and asked


Xia Wan, “Xiao Xia, do you know anyone from the Lu family in the capital?”


Caught off guard by this question, Xia Wan first paused and then asked back,


“Why do you ask about this?”


Xia Wan did not deny it, and the leader’s face revealed a knowing smile. “What is your relationship with the Lu family?”


Xia Wan frowned slightly, then asked, “What does this have to do with why you called me here today?”


The leader wasn’t swayed by Xia Wan’s question and maintained a smile. “Since we plan to bring you into our team, naturally, we need to conduct some investigation into your background.”


“The old master of the Lu family in the capital is a distinguished person, but it seems there is no connection with your family.” The leader looked puzzled, “Perhaps, you would like to explain?”


Xia Wan didn’t mind revealing her relationship with the Lu family, especially since there was Lu Lin, the disgraceful one; it wasn’t their Xia family who would be embarrassed!


Xia Wan shared with the leader how she was originally engaged to Lu Lin, but the engagement was broken because of Xia Ru.


As for the old master Lu’s fondness for her, Xia Wan did not mention it.


At times like this, it was better to involve herself and those people as little as possible.


If people knew that old master Lu liked her, she would have to deal with all kinds of troublesome matters in the future!


Xia Wan spoke lightly, but the leader laughed heartily. “I’ve heard about the absurd actions of that grandson of the Lu family, but I didn’t expect him to do such things!”


Xia Wan picked up her tea and took a sip. “Leader, you know about Lu Lin?”


“Hmm, I’ve heard a bit,” the leader said with a smile, sipping his tea before continuing, “It’s good you didn’t fulfill the marriage contract with Lu Lin; otherwise, it would have been a real injustice to you!”


Lin Chao, sitting aside, muttered, “Leader, why are you so nosy!” The leader glared at Lin Chao, who immediately fell silent.


Then, the leader asked again, ‘What is your relationship with Chen MO?”


Hearing the leader mention Chen MO, Xia Wan immediately turned her gaze to Lin Chao.


Lin Chao hastily waved his hands, “It wasn’t me who said it!”


Xia Wan then turned to look at the leader.


The leader smiled and said, “Don’t suspect him, it indeed wasn’t him who told me.”


“I’ve said before, if I want to investigate someone, there’s nothing I can’t find out.”


Hearing this, Xia Wan felt a chill down her spine.


This man was truly frightening. At this moment, Xia Wan didn’t know whether getting close to him and joining his organization was right or wrong!


Seeing Xia Wan’s furrowed brow, the leader said with a light laugh, “Don’t worry, I’m just conducting a thorough investigation and won’t harm him.”


Xia Wan lowered her gaze, knowing that even if she didn’t say anything, the leader would have other ways to find out everything clearly.


Xia Wan sighed and said, “Chen MO is my friend. We have many collaborations and will face many difficulties together in the future.”


“Friend?” The leader’s voice carried a hint of doubt.


Suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, Xia Wan nodded, “Yes, a friend!”


“Good! Since you say so, I believe you!” the leader nodded in satisfaction.


“Let’s get back to the main topic, otherwise Lin Chao here will wear a hole in my floor.” The leader glanced at Lin Chao’s feet.


Lin Chao embarrassingly retracted his foot that had been rubbing on the ground.


“I will arrange for you to undergo a month of special training to quickly familiarize yourself with our organization’s structure and internal members,” the leader said solemnly to Xia Wan, “But during this month, I hope you can temporarily leave your current life for a fully enclosed and confidential training.”


Xia Wan’s brow furrowed again.


Disappear for a month?


How was she supposed to explain her whereabouts for this month to her parents?
