From Sidekick to Bigshot

The man replied: "The punishment for those who refuse to listen to Xunyu is very serious. If Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling want to be punished by the association, then they can choose to not show up."

This meant even if Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling did not decide to come, they would not be able to escape what awaited them.

The man's words reassured Qu Zhen and Sheng Yingying a lot.

After all, they knew what the Xunyu Natural Science Research Association was capable of.

Those who offended the association would all end up in a bad spot.

Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling's existence was like a mere ant in front of the mysterious and powerful Xunyu Natural Science Research Association.

"What kind of punishment would that be?" Sheng Yingying couldn't help but ask.

Upon hearing this, the man looked at Sheng Yingying.

Qin Chuan explained: "These two are my friends."

Only then did the man answer Sheng Yingying's question: "First of all, they will become blacklisted by Xunyu. Once Xunyu blacklists them, every company and organization Xunyu is involved with will no longer collaborate with them. Whenever there's an opportunity, they will also actively make life difficult for them."

"Secondly, we have special officers in Xunyu to punish those who break our rules. They will make the rule breakers suffer from both physical and mental trauma. I'm not at liberty to go into too much detail."

"So that's how it is." Sheng Yingying replied with a smile on her face.

After explaining to Sheng Yingying, the man reported tomorrow's arrangements to Qin Chuan.

Qu Zhen and Sheng Yingying stood there and listened to the plans.

The people from Xunyu were indeed very reliable. They knew exactly what had to be done.

And as long as Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling got destroyed, they would be able to sleep well at night.

The next day at 12 pm, Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling arrived at the designated location.

It was a church that was not open to the public. This place was typically used by Xunyu to meet and discuss important matters.

Both Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling were wearing casual clothes. One of them was wearing black whilst the other was wearing white. They walked in holding each other's hands and there were no bodyguards following them.

As soon as they entered, they saw Qu Zhen and Sheng Yingying. The two of them had arrived beforehand.

These two people were not members of the Xunyu Natural Science Research Association. This meant that they were not meant to be here.

Qu Zhen pretended to greet Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling: "Greetings, Young Master Zhai and Miss Jian."

Upon hearing his greeting, Zhai Yunsheng smiled wickedly and pulled Jian Yiling over into a seat.

He pulled Jian Yiling to sit on his lap.

"Yiling, take a look at these two monkeys. The monkeys are going to sing for us. Isn't this interesting to watch?" Zhai Yunsheng lowered his head and said to Jian Yiling.

Sheng Yingying caught onto Zhai Yunsheng's words and sneered back: "Are you sure you guys will be the ones enjoying the show today?"

The expression on her face was sarcastic and mocking. Didn't they know what they were facing? How much did they overestimate their own abilities?

When Qin Chuan and the others arrived, would Zhai Yunsheng still dare to say such reckless and unfiltered things?

Qu Zhen sighed and said: "Young Master Zhai, you shouldn't blame us for doing those things. We were forced to do so. No one wanted to reach this point."

Upon hearing this, the look in Jian Yiling's eyes was sharp as she replied: "No one forced you to make that decision. It was your own choice."

Qu Zhen said helplessly: "We chose to follow Mr. Qin because Young Master Zhai was unable to provide us a sense of security. We did not want the Loyalty Alliance to be destroyed in his hands. Furthermore, we have many people to feed in our respective companies and businesses. We can't just stand by and do nothing."
