I am Fei Huangjin's wife

"Since this is a special mission from me, the technical team will be working with the Dragon Club men and report directly to me."

"Why? We have our own spies!"

"Miss Ying, in case you forgot, we're Juyan. We don't mix with the syndicates. We can't just tap into the Dragon Club as we please." He grumbled.

Ying Yue was having a meeting with the various departments and team representatives in Juyan, which mostly consisted of men. And although they knew she was the young madame of the Fei's, as of the moment, they didn't seem to understand the weight of her status. Neither did they seem to think she was more capable than she looked, despite the fact that she was shadow fox -- the top spy in Juyan.

Another man sighed. "Women tend to think that it's easy to get away with things, but we have to be careful about how we proceed now that Big Boss is gone." The others nodded their heads.

There you go. It was a subtle implication that they didn't trust her views and decisions -- mainly because she was a woman. She could perhaps agree that she might never be able to live up to Big Boss' name, but, they had no right to dismiss her concerns simply because she didn't have balls between her legs.

Xi Shenghui was the only man in the room who was quiet and didn't react like that.

"No. The other spies have to comply with the workload given to us from our clients, so it would be better to use the Dragon Club men for this." She pressed, not giving up on the issue.

"With all due respect, the Dragon Club isn't our territory--"

"But it's my territory." A corner of Ying Yue's mouth lifted up into a smirk. "I am Fei Huangjin's wife. And my husband has granted me complete authority over the Dragon Club men, to use them as I please. Therefore, I shall use them as I please."

There were gasps and small murmurs around the room. If this woman had complete authority over that syndicate, that meant she was really treasured by the young master Fei, and she could even obliterate Juyan if she wanted to. This piece of news was both shocking and unbelievable.

Ying Yue's eyes scanned the room, and the sharp look in her eye was both murderous and uncomfortable to everyone who met with it. "I've said my piece before. If you aren't partial to my management of Juyan, you are free to leave the agency. I won't stop you." She stood up. "Now if you excuse me, I still have to take charge of some operations that we're running."

She walked out of the room and Xi Shenghui hurried after her with a sigh. Ying Yue glanced at him beside her and flashed him a smile. "Shenghui, I hope you had a decent amount of sleep. We'll be working 'til midnight tonight."

Xi Shenghui scratched his neck. No wonder Big Boss left Juyan to her. If she wasn't a dedicated workaholic, he didn't know what was.

Fei Huangjin stepped into the private club called VX and grimaced at the loud noises and thumping music. He was only here because Xiao Yifeng and Zhang Zihan invited him out, and he was sure picking out the place was Zihan's doing.

The hostess sashayed towards him with a skin tight black dress and a seductive smile, clearly trying to get his attention. "Mr. Fei, it's good to see you in our club. You should come by more often." She slithered up to him and batted her eyelashes.

Unfortunately, Fei Huangjin disliked women like that, and he couldn't even be bothered to hide the worsening grimace on his face. He should've pushed the others for a different meeting place. "Point me to Zhang Zihan's table."

She didn't seem to be fazed by his cold glare and walked ahead of him with a sway of her hips. "I'll take you there."

When he arrived at the private booth on the second floor, Zhang Zihan and Xiao Yifeng were laughing aloud at something they were talking about, and it seemed like they were already half-drunk. Fei Huangjin glanced at his watch. It was only ten in the evening. Were the two blowing some steam?

At that moment, Zhang Zihan noticed his arrival and pulled him over to sit down. "Huangjin! What's up with you? You're late!"

"I was--"

"Here, drink the whole glass as punishment!" The man shoved a glass of whiskey at him while Xiao Yifeng cheered.

He sighed. They had such eager and expectant faces that made him gulp down the whole glass in a few seconds.

The two men seemed satisfied with his drinking, but then Zhang Zihan thought of something and called out to the hostess who was still standing around their booth. "Lulu, get us some girls. Six of them."
