Leveling Up With My Pet



Liu Yong pondered for a moment before he spoke to Overlord,

"For now, you don't have any tasks. Wait for my notice. It's your rest time, do whatever you want." 

Overlord felt a tinge of regret. The job was over just as soon as it began. It wasn't enjoyable at all. He wished he could have used his abilities to sink the ship and swim to the next destination immediately, finding a larger vessel to pierce.

"The word of the master is the imperial decree," he reminded himself.

Meanwhile, Overlord had other ideas. "Okay, then I'll go surfing around, bully those big guys in the sea, and fill my stomach, by the way." He said to Liu Yong and flew away quickly without wasting time, leaving the sinking ship behind.

Liu Yong could have ordered his pet and sunk another ship quickly. However, the main reason he didn't was to give Luo Maoyuan some time. As long as he wasn't too foolish, he would probably come to beg for mercy soon enough.

The senior management of Risheng Sino-Ocean Group was in chaos. Some people showed apparent panic on their faces.

"What? Another ship has sunk?" exclaimed one person in disbelief.

"My God, what's going on here?" questioned another.

"I have worked in the ocean shipping industry for decades, and this is the first time I have encountered such a strange thing," said a third person.

There was a sense of unease among them. From yesterday to now, three ships had sunk in a row, all large vessels, including one with more than 200,000 tons.

"I heard that Universal Company let go of the harsh words. Could it be related to Universal Company?" someone speculated.

"I think it's mostly related to Universal Corporation. Otherwise, where in the world is there such a coincidence?" another person asked.

"But, we have no evidence," interjected a third person.

"Not to mention the evidence, until now, the real cause of the shipwreck has not been clarified," replied another.

Despite having no evidence, the possibility of Universal's involvement was recovered. The timing was too coincidental to ignore. Universal Company issued a warning within 24 hours. No problems had arisen within that time frame. But once the 24 hours had passed, shipwrecks began one after another. It must be related to Universal.

Many of the high-level executives had already been thinking the same thing, and one of them even voiced it out loud, saying, 

"What is Mr Luo waiting for? Is he waiting for the fourth ship to sink? We should just give in and apologize to Universal already."

"I agree," said another executive. "The most important thing is to swallow our pride and apologize."

Jiang Shunli, one of the executives, walked into Luo Maoyuan's office once again.

"Mr. Luo, everyone is talking about it and the reaction has been intense," he said.

Luo Maoyuan slowly turned around in his chair. He had been sitting there with a dark expression for an hour, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

He sighed deeply as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

"What do you think we should do, Shunli?" he asked.

Jiang Shunli also let out a sigh. "Well, it's clear that Universal is behind all of this, but we have no evidence. We never expected that they would have such powerful means to sink our ships if they wanted to."

Luo Maoyuan remained silent.

Jiang Shunli continued, "Since the other party has such a powerful means, it's not something we can compete with. Mr. Luo, we should just give in and come to their door to apologize and compensate them for their losses."

Luo Maoyuan let out another deep sigh. "You should be the one to reach out and contact Universal Company. I will come to apologize tomorrow morning," he said weakly.

"That's the only way," he added, resigning himself.

Luo Maoyuan's heart was bleeding. He knew the Risheng Group would suffer a significant loss if he didn't apologise.

This shipping kingdom was something he had built with his own hands. To see it hit so hard like this was devastating. He would pay any price for regret if there were medicine for guilt.

Universal Corporation.

Liu Yong stayed in his office constantly, mainly because he wanted to wait for Luo Maoyuan to give in. If he still refused to give in, then in the afternoon, he would pierce another big boat.

Which ship to choose, Liu Yong has already decided. They have a 70,000-ton oil tanker preparing to go to the Middle East and will soon enter the South China Sea of ​​Yanguo.

After a while.

There were three knocks on the office door, and Qiu Yang and Hu Shijun came in together. It could be seen that their faces were happy.

"Boss, good news, good news!" Qiu Yang said excitedly.

Liu Yong vaguely guessed something and asked happily: "Is there any news from Risheng Group?"

"Boss, you are so good at predicting things!" Hu Shijun exclaimed.

Qiu Yang said: "Risheng Ocean Shipping Group sent an official letter, saying that Luo Maoyuan will lead the entire management team to visit."

"Pay a visit to?" Liu Yong smirked. "That's just putting gold on their own faces, but they actually came to the door to apologize."

Liu Yong took the letter and glanced at it for a while. At this moment, he was pretty happy, and Luo Maoyuan finally gave in.

  "Ha ha, be afraid! You are wise. Otherwise, I will ask the Overlord to pierce one of your ships again." Liu proudly thought.

Putting the letter in his hand, Liu Yong ordered: "Tell Risheng that since they are the ones here to apologize, they must come to the door of my office to apologize."

"Okay, I will warn the other party," Qiu Yang agreed.

"Brother Yong, you really plan to ask Risheng to compensate us for a loss of one billion yuan," Hu Shijun asked excitedly.

"One billion, that was two days ago, now, at least two billion," Liu Yong said calmly.

"What! Two billion!" Hu Shijun's eyes widened in disbelief.

On the second day.

Luo Maoyuan and a group set off from the hotel where they stayed. They arrived in Huahai City last night. There were a total of four black cars driving in the direction of Universal Company.

Luo Maoyuan's face was a little serious. He also struggled in his heart until he sighed softly, giving himself the psychological comfort that a man can bend, stretch, and bow his head when he should.

Jiang Shunli accompanied him in the same car. He looked at Luo Maoyuan's face and sighed softly. "I hope Liu Yong won't embarrass us too much," he prayed.

…

Universal Corporation.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

There was a knock on the office door, and Hu Shijun pushed the door in. 

"Brother Yong, Luo Maoyuan and his party have arrived."

"I have arranged the business conference room at the Yulan Hotel."

"The Yulan Hotel? is a great place for a people like them to meet?", Liu Yong asked with a smile, and deep inside, he was so proud that they came to beg for mercy. 

"Let's go and meet them in  Magnolia Hotel rather."
