ACQUAINTANCE

Chen Linyun was inside his service car which was constantly moving along the rough roads of Fujian. He was just returning from Quanzhou, which he added in his itinerary out of interest and self-resolve a while back, when he first learned about the pirate attack in the area.

He was seated at the back seat of the car. He was with his team, and his subordinate, Jin Yuan was driving. He was looking at the picturesque landscape quickly flying by the car's window, but never really appreciating the view.

It was because he was deep in concentration with his thoughts. He was contemplating something which seemed of immense importance. He even appeared troubled.

"Boss, are you alright?" Jin Yuan asked, while glancing at the rear view mirror towards him.

"Huh? Yeah." He answered while blinking. His train of thoughts was disrupted. But regardless, it still returned to the source: a man which he met in Quanzhou.
