Chu Heng caressed the jade cup with his fingers and asked aloud.
Zhou Jing'an replied, "Seventy percent of the operation has been completed; we expect to wrap it up by the end of the month."
Chu Heng nodded, "Recently the rumors are tight; caution is paramount... This Chen Mo is quite troublesome; we absolutely must not slip up."
"Yes," Zhou Jing'an responded.
After waiting for a good while, Chu Zhuo and the others had yet to return.
Zhou Jing'an frowned slightly, "Nearly half an hour has passed, and they can't even handle this trivial matter? This Chu Zhuo really is useless—"
Before he could finish saying 'rubbish,' a sudden, thunderous explosion sounded.
Both men drew aside the curtained windows to look and were immediately stunned.
