In a lab on the outskirts of the capital, Rong Qi received a text message, [Boss, someone reported on our project.]
Rong Qi frowned and queried, [Reason?]
[The materials for our project come from Ferica. The accusers suspect us of smuggling because of the large volume of jewels involved. They've requested that we suspend the project for an investigation. But, I can pull some strings to keep it going.]
Rong Qi pondered for a moment and replied, [No need. What is the Seven Sinisters up to?]
'Even if they were to smooth over this report, another curveball would be thrown our way sooner or later. Business wasn't a mere matter of attack and defense. I preferred offense over defense.' Rong Qi thought.
