Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

First class on an airplane

Two flight attendants were whispering to each other, discussing An Xiaohai, who was sitting in the second row.

"Xiaoli, what exactly does this Mr. Chen do? In just half a month, he's flown several times, and every time he's in first class."

"If you want to know, go ask her yourself!" Xiaoli rolled her eyes at Xiaowen. "Aren't you usually pretty bold?"

"This time is different!" Xiaowen shook Xiaoli's arm. "I'm so scared!"

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of the scar on his face, or are you afraid he'll reject you?"

"Of course I'm afraid of being rejected!" Xiaowen pouted, rested her chin on her hands, and stared intently at An Xiaohai, who was deep in thought, through the gap in the curtain.

At that moment, the pale yellow sunlight shone through the porthole onto An Xiaohai's profile, outlining a distinct and sharp contour.

"Alright, don't blame me for not reminding you. We'll be landing in half an hour. If you don't act now, they'll get off the plane, and who knows when we'll meet again!" Xiaoli shook her head gently and sighed.

"Never mind, I won't ask anymore. It's fine to just watch him like this..."

"You're such a flirt!" Xiaoli muttered to Xiaowen, secretly sighing inwardly. She knew very well why the usually lively and bold Xiaowen was so conflicted.

An Xiaohai was always accompanied by a stunningly beautiful woman, whose looks and figure were no less than theirs. However, An Xiaohai didn't even glance at her once during the entire journey, as he was preoccupied with his own thoughts.

No wonder Xiaowen hesitated to pursue a man like that.

"But he's really handsome... It's a pity he has a scar on his face that makes him look a bit fierce..."

The announcement of their impending landing came over the loudspeaker. An Xiaohai snapped out of his reverie and nudged Mai Xiaoyu beside him. Mai Xiaoyu had been exhausted these past few days and, after confirming there was no danger on the plane, had fallen asleep and had been sleeping ever since.

As the plane landed, An Xiaohai walked out of the cabin with his hands in his pockets, followed closely by Mai Xiaoyu dragging two large suitcases. When the flight attendant at the cabin door said goodbye, An Xiaohai simply nodded slightly without looking at her, which made the flight attendant named Xiaowen pout.

After leaving the airport and getting into the car driven by Zhou Xun, An Xiaohai finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Mr. Chen, we've been traveling all over the world for almost a month now. When is this going to end? You don't have to take this acting so seriously!"

Mai Xiaoyu was groaning from exhaustion. She was responsible for An Xiaohai's safety. In Haixi Province, there were other comrades who could help out, but once they left the province, she had to rely entirely on herself. You can imagine how tired she was.

During this period, An Xiaohai traveled to almost every province in the Jiangnan region.

"It wasn't entirely acting; I was genuinely conducting market research. Do you really think it's that easy to create a company with a high chance of going public and worth investing in by Starry Sky International?"

"Oh, is the survey finished?"

"It's basically finished."

"So what do we do next? Do we need to leave the province again?"

"We shouldn't need it for a while," An Xiaohai took a deep breath and turned to Zhou Xun, who was driving: "Chen Xun, how's the sweep by Haifoye's organization going?"

"They're basically finished," Zhou Xun's voice was a little hoarse: "The two 'Buddhas with knives,' Ah Chou has been captured, and Ah Chi was killed. He died a terrible death, locked in a car and burned to death, leaving no trace of his body."

The two "wealth-controlling Buddhas," Abing and Qiang, have been secretly arrested by us. Abing has already confessed, and we are arresting people and seizing goods based on his confession.

Ah Qiang refused to talk, saying that some of his men had fled to the Golden Triangle region and that they were trying to bring them to justice.

"Where's the goods? How much have you found?"

"In total, there were more than 1400 kilograms, but very little of the stolen money was recovered. The total amount of funds in the accounts we seized did not exceed 100 million yuan."

"When you were dealing with the Sea Buddha organization, did you feel like there was someone directing them from behind?"

"Yes, definitely. And the person in charge is very capable. Several of our operations have failed to achieve complete success, which should be attributed to this person in the shadows."

"Can we rule out Xu Chonghua?"

"Yes, we have been monitoring him in all aspects. During this time, the activities organized by Hai Foye should have nothing to do with him. He is quite busy and is engaged in legitimate business activities every day."

Director Xu meant that while we would certainly crack down on the Haifoye organization with all our might, he believed our focus should shift to the internal workings of the public security system, and we should take this opportunity to conduct a thorough purge.

"Understood, I agree with Director Xu's opinion," An Xiaohai nodded.

Xu Congzhou must have realized through various signs that the Haifoye organization had reached this point and was no longer of much use to An Zhehao. As such, it would naturally be difficult to capture An Zhehao through the Haifoye organization.

Since that's the case, we might as well take this opportunity to completely eliminate the moles within the public security system.

"What's the current situation with Ding Ping?"

"She remained calm, neither making a fuss nor arguing. She spent her days reading, except for eating and sleeping."

"Reading? What kind of book are you reading?"

"She's not picky. Whatever books they give her, she reads them with great focus."

"Sure, you're trying to outlast us with your patience... Let's give her a little longer. What has Zhan Weiting been doing all this time?"

"He seems to do nothing. He spends his days partying, drinking tea, singing, dancing, and playing mahjong. Mrs. Gu returned to Hong Kong a week ago."

I have kept a detailed record of Zhan Weiting's daily movements, and I have compiled it and put it in your room.

"Okay, thank you!" An Xiaohai took a soft breath. "Where's Han Shasha? What's she doing?"

Zhou Xun paused for a brief moment:

"She left Haixi Province on the same day as you, but she has come here every weekend. A couple of days ago, she even came to your door to return your clothes and money."

"Have you been following her movements? Has she seen anyone since she came over here?"

"No, we haven't found anything yet. It seems like she came specifically for you."

"I understand," An Xiaohai nodded, feeling a little emotional.

Love is truly a torturous thing. Zhou Xun has clearly lost a lot of weight recently, and her mental state is obviously not as good as before, which shows how much pain she is in.

Some of the disciplines of the special operations team are actually quite reasonable!

After asking these questions, An Xiaohai didn't speak again until the car came to a complete stop. He then said, "Everyone, please prepare your passports accordingly. We may be frequently traveling back and forth to Honggang in the coming period of time."

"Okay, I'll take care of it!" Mai Xiaoyu thoughtfully accepted the task. "It's been so long since I've been to Honggang. I really miss their roast goose and char siu rice!"

"What, did you used to go to Red Harbor often?"

"My mother is from Hong Kong, didn't I tell you that?!" Mai Xiaoyu raised her chin, swayed her waist and walked away, while Zhou Xun consciously dragged the two huge suitcases.

Just after finishing dinner, An Xiaohai's phone, which he had been keeping by his side, rang. He picked it up and let out a long sigh of relief.

The call was from Zhan Weiting. An Xiaohai had been waiting for his call these past few days. After giving Mai Xiaoyu a wink, An Xiaohai answered the phone.

"Mr. Chen, it's me, Zhan Weiting! We met at the party last time, do you remember me?"

"Hello Mr. Zhan, of course I remember! I was planning to invite you for tea the next day, but I was held up by something and I've been flying around a lot these days, so I haven't been able to find an opportunity. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I know you're a very busy person!"

I called Miss Mai a few times to invite her to play mahjong, but she was either in Hubei or Fujian province investigating the market with you, so we were always short one player! I saw how busy you were, so I didn't want to bother you.

"Haha, you'd better be careful if you ask her to play mahjong, she's really good."

"Yes, Mr. Chen, you're absolutely right! Why didn't you remind us sooner! Do you know that we almost lost everything, even our underwear, after playing less than four rounds that night!"

so amazing!

Later, I invited a few experts to come and get revenge on her, but it turned out we didn't have the chance, haha!

Mr. Chen, are you done with your work now?

"That's about it. I flew back from out of town today and just got home. Mr. Zhan, do you have any advice for me?"

"I wouldn't presume to offer advice. If Mr. Chen has no plans for tonight, could you please come to the club?"

"I'm a bit tired today. Can we reschedule? Or I can send Secretary Xiaoyu over. You guys wanted to get revenge on her, right? I'll create an opportunity for you, hehe."

"Let's skip it today. None of the experts I invited are here. If she comes, she'll slaughter everyone again! I'm scared."

"Mr. Chen, if you're not too tired, I think you should come to the club. I'd like to introduce you to a special friend. He happens to be here today, but he has to go back to Honggang tomorrow."

"I see. Could you tell me who this special friend is?"

"Haha, it's really special, you'll see when you get here. Don't worry, you definitely won't be disappointed. If you're tired, I'll have the driver pick you up."

"No need, my driver is resting. I asked him to take me there. Shall we go now?"

"Come on over, come early!"

We had a great chat last time, but there were too many people and we didn't have a chance to talk in depth. This time there aren't many people in the club, so we can calm down and talk about some different things.

"Oh? Something different. Does Mr. Zhan have some way to make money that he can introduce?"

"There are many ways to make money, let's talk about it when we get here!"

"Okay, see you in a bit."

"Waiting for you! By the way, don't bring Secretary Xiaoyu this time. How can we talk about serious matters with her here? Haha!"

"Okay, Secretary Xiaoyu is tired too, I'll let her rest first."

An Xiaohai hung up the phone and gave Zhou Xun a wink. Zhou Xun immediately took Zhan Weiting's movement report, went downstairs to prepare the car, and Mai Xiaoyu spent some time touching up An Xiaohai's makeup.

"Check the airport and airline information as soon as possible; they might have someone working there."

"Understood, don't worry!"

Mai Xiaoyu handed the coat to An Xiaohai and pointed to a button on it.

An Xiaohai nodded, closed the door, and left.
