The Dormant Vampire Queen Awakens

Chapter 25

Yu Yuan saw that young man leave with two people, leaving only a few people wearing white robes standing in place.

One person suddenly slapped the table: "Director, Pei Liechuan is too arrogant! He failed the mission and wasted a billion, and now he talks to you like this..."

"Alright, alright." The director was somewhat helpless: "You know his temperament."

"Humph, he is simply arrogant, with no regard for you, me, or the higher ups—"

"Yongyan! Don't say such things!" The director's face hardened.

Zhang Yongyan coldly snorted: "The losses this time should be borne by him, Pei Liechuan! Not only did he not retrieve the goods, he said the corpse ran away itself. Why doesn't he say it was a vampire that nearly killed him too?"

"Director, he is making up stories..."

"The higher ups have their own considerations about this matter. We just need to focus on the research."

The director looked at him: "After so many years, you still have such a narrow mindset. This brat just humiliated you back then right? That was because your skills were inferior."

Zhang Yongyan's face darkened, but he did not speak.

"It's been so many years since the incident. He's retired now and will have no more conflicts with you in the future. Stop holding on to past grudges."

Zhang Yongyan: "He's retired but still interfering in this matter—"

The director looked at the computer: "You can't blame him. He participated this time while still injured. His old wounds haven't healed."

"There was no one else who could replace him this time. You know his capabilities. Anyone would be wary of him. Don't keep making trouble for him."

"To put it bluntly, he's not someone you can afford to provoke."

Zhang Yongyan stood up: "What's so great about him? He's just a businessman now. The mission failed, he won't get away with it!"

He left the office fuming with anger.

Yu Yuan flew onto the golden coffin. It felt this person had a really bad temper, like he had some major illness.

It lay inside the coffin, searching for the things it had hidden away.

After looking for a while without finding anything, it furrowed its brows: "Did someone take them?"

It was a little insect cocoon it had raised itself, which was in the middle of metamorphosis. It had placed it on top of the coffin panels.

Did it get lost by itself?

It had forgotten about it while escaping at that time. Now that it remembered, it was gone.

It sighed: "It probably starved to death."

"Oh well, it's been a thousand years. It must be dead."

It flew out of the coffin to see those people examining the coffin.

Other than the few words Master Yu had left, there was nothing inside the coffin.

It flapped its wings, preparing to fly home.

Leaving the huge laboratory, it went outside and saw the alluring young man. He was leaning against a car smoking.

Yu Yuan secretly hid by the car door. It was very curious about this young man.

"Boss!"

Another young man came running over, holding a file.

"The report has been submitted. The higher ups said there were no issues."

"Mm."

He flicked away the cigarette butt. "Tell them I'll handle things. Just focus on recovering from your injuries."

Lin Nan looked at him worriedly: "Boss, you took two bullets and were already injured—"

Pei Liechuan raised his hand to interrupt him. "It's nothing. There won't be many more incidents like this. I'll just be an ordinary businessman from now on."

"Boss, you push yourself so hard while that Zhang Yongyan still bites at you, it really angers me!"

"We all have our own duties." Pei Liechuan got in the car. "Let's go, I'll send you back to base."
