"Make sure to proceed carefully, leaving no trace." Huo Sizun nodded.

The situation has reached this point, and saying more is futile; we can only proceed cautiously. Although he knows Lin Beichen and he are of one mind, sometimes decisions must be made personally. Only with determination can things be accomplished.

In fact, Huo Sizun does not completely agree with Lin Beichen’s view. Lin Beichen always looks ahead and considers the consequences too much when doing things. Such a person isn’t great at taking risks and only works step by step.

"Lin Beichen, I think you worry too much about the consequences of your actions. Look at those in history who achieved great things; weren’t they risk-takers? With this kind of hesitation, you’ll never accomplish anything big." Huo Sizun said impatiently. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Lin Beichen listened, feeling utterly helpless. No matter how much he says, it’s useless; Huo Sizun is determined to do it this way.

In Huo Sizun’s mind, the Huo Group is now his greatest opponent. Talking too much will only deepen Huo Sizun’s hatred towards the Huo Group.

"Huo Sizun, I still hope you will carefully consider the pros and cons of this matter. I know one shouldn’t be too proper, but also not too reckless. With what we’re doing, taking such risks won’t lead to good results." Lin Beichen tried to make a final persuasion.

"You’re saying this because you disagree with me. If you thought this way from the beginning, we might as well scrap the agreement. Now, with our different ideas, continuing to cooperate will only lead to mutual injury. It’s better if you do your thing, I’ll do mine, and our goals will eventually be the same." Huo Sizun didn’t want to say more.

Lin Beichen listened and understood Huo Sizun’s current thoughts. He wants a swift resolution, but Lin Beichen doesn’t agree. Now, they are paths that do not converge.

"Alright, since you’ve said this, I also realize our work styles differ. Continuing to partner won’t lead to a win-win situation. Let’s end the agreement early; it’s a wise choice, and I agree." Lin Beichen sighed.

Huo Sizun didn’t expect Lin Beichen would agree so readily with his idea. Given this, he didn’t need to say more.

"Good, this way we won’t embarrass each other. It’s a mutual decision, which makes acting easier." After saying this, Huo Sizun turned and left, leaving Lin Beichen alone.

Lin Beichen felt a mix of emotions, not expecting Huo Sizun to make such a decision. Though they initially had a mutually beneficial relationship, he cannot agree with Huo Sizun’s way of handling things now. Since persuasion had no effect, he could only let him go ahead.

On the other side, Huo Sizun received evidence from his subordinates of the Huo Group’s tax evasion, feeling elated.

"Hahaha, Huo Group, you didn’t expect this day, did you? Your so-called Huo Group is now within my grasp!" Huo Sizun said to himself, with a smug smile on his face.

Once he had the evidence, Huo Sizun immediately reported it to the relevant authorities.

The next day, all headlines were reporting the Huo Group’s severe punishment for tax evasion. Nobody expected such a large entity like the Huo Group to face such a huge incident overnight.

Huo Sizun was overjoyed after reading the news. He didn’t expect this risk to yield such dream-like rewards. This risk was certainly worth it! Luckily, he didn’t listen to Lin Beichen; if he did, who knows how long he would have waited.

However, now he must carefully plan the next steps. The Huo Group is bound to seek backup after such an incident. So, he must cut off all their backup to ensure the Huo Group’s total collapse, never giving them a chance to recover.

Meanwhile, Lin Beichen felt uneasy upon seeing the news.

Although Huo Sizun achieved his desired result, this move undoubtedly angered the Huo Group.

Originally fighting against them in the dark, now everything is out in the open. Though the agreement with Huo Sizun has ended, they’re still tied together.

If something happens, he can’t escape either. Both he and Huo Sizun will undoubtedly become the Huo Group’s target.

Even so, he must remain calm. Now he worries that Huo Sizun will become proud and complacent at this juncture, making it easy for opportunists to take advantage.

If something goes wrong now, the final outcome won’t be good.

The Huo Group underwent a stringent examination. All accounts from recent years were thoroughly scrutinized, leading to substantial fines.

Employees of the Huo Group were anxious, fearing they might lose their jobs because of this.

Upon learning that this incident involved Huo Sizun and Lin Beichen, Huo Minghao was furious.

Despite being a Huo member, Huo Sizun managed to commit such treacherous acts! He won’t let him off in the future!

"Just wait and see! I’ll make sure you pay an unimaginable price! Now you bask in your fleeting glory; I will show no mercy!" Huo Minghao said fiercely, fire flashing in his eyes.
