"Sir, t-that person…"
He Yun stammered, for he could sense his boss's anger from the other end of the call. Although the latter said and did nothing, from his understanding of him, he knew the man's silence meant that he was very infuriated.
He dared not say anything else. In the end, the man spoke.
"Continue talking about Sire Nine."
It was as though He Yun had been pardoned. He took a deep breath. If his boss scolded him, he would be able to find out all about Sire Nine. No matter how difficult it would be, he would be able to dig out all the information, let alone a person who had whitewashed himself.
"Yes! I'm going to continue now."
He returned to his monitor and spoke about who the elderly man had met through the years and all the business dealings he had had. He scoured through all the details he was able to find; thus, this call ended up taking more than two hours.
