"I'm just guessing. We'll find out when we get there!"
Chen Xiaobei said. "All you need to remember is that I will put you into the Verdant Emperor's Divine Gourd when you're in danger. That way, you'll be safe!"
"What about you? Will you be in danger? "Lan Mengcheng asked nervously.
"Me?" Chen Xiaobei shrugged and said, "Unless someone fires dozens of nuclear bombs at me, no one on earth can threaten me!"
"Are you kidding me?" Lan Mengcheng looked at him in disbelief. "I'm afraid a few dozen nuclear bombs could destroy the earth!"
"With your current knowledge, it's hard for you to understand real power!"
Chen Xiaobei shrugged. "But, I'm not joking. Wait till we go to Northern Wilderness Starfield. Then, you will know that in this vast universe, the elites who can dominate all the stars in the universe really do exist!"
"Mm … I believe you …" Lan Mengcheng nodded and chose to believe him.
After what happened in Atlantis, Lan Mengcheng had seen the world where the strong ruled.
Though that was just the tip of the iceberg, Lan Mengcheng trusted Chen Xiaobei completely. She was willing to follow Chen Xiaobei to open a new chapter in this world!
…
At Brighton's private manor.
This place was far away from the city and was surrounded by mountains and rivers. Not only was the location great, but it was also a private piece of land. Outsiders were not allowed to enter within a ten-mile radius.
To be able to own a manor like this, it was not hard to tell how powerful Brighton Organization was.
One should know that a piece of land like this was not something that could be bought with money alone. One also needed to have a very strong connection with the American government!
That was why Beichen Cosmetics chose Brighton Organization, a super financial giant that spanned both the political and business worlds, in order to enter the American market!
From a business point of view, this was the right choice.
But, the thing that was hidden behind this was way beyond the business itself.
"Boss Chen! Boss Lan! You've come all the way here! Have a seat and have a cup of tea. Today's meeting will take place here! "
In a luxurious living room, the representative of Brighton Organization, Jack, was entertaining Chen Xiaobei and Lan Mengcheng.
"I drank some water in the car just now. There's no need for tea. Let's get straight to the point!" Lan Mengcheng said.
"Hehe."
Jack said with a smile that was not a smile, "I've long heard that CEO Lan does things swiftly and decisively. Seeing it today, it's indeed a well-deserved reputation! What a pity for my famous Chinese tea! Normally, I can't even bear to drink it myself. I didn't expect that Boss Lan actually doesn't like it! "
Lan Mengcheng quickly explained, "No no no … It's not that I don't like your tea! But I'm really not thirsty! "
Upon seeing this, Wang Yuhao said in a deep voice, "Chief Lan! Out of courtesy, you and Mr. Chen should at least have a sip! "
Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Secretary Wong, you really know how to talk! If we don't drink this tea, we're being rude? "
Wang Yuhao squinted his eyes and said, "The guest follows the host's wishes. Mr. Jack is so enthusiastic, we can't let him lose face, right? Chief Chen! "
"Yes! Mr. Shanks is our God of Fortune. We have to show him respect! "Chen nodded and drank the tea in front of him in one gulp.
Jack and Wang Yuhao's eyes flashed with a sinister smile at the sight before them.
"Chief Lan, you should drink as well!" Wang Yuhao said in a deep voice.
"Alright …" Lan Mengcheng nodded, put down the document in her hand and reached for the teacup.
"Chief Lan is not thirsty! I'm the one who's thirsty! Let me drink one more cup! "Chen Xiaobei took the teacup from Lan Mengcheng's hand and drank it in one gulp.
Jack and Wang Yuhao were both a little surprised at the scene before them, but they soon felt relieved.
After all, the only person who could threaten them was Chen Xiaobei.
For a weak girl like Lan Mengcheng, it would not make much of a difference whether she drank the tea or not.
Lan Mengcheng picked up the document in her hand and said, "We've already drunk the tea. Can we get to the main topic now?"
"Of course you can!" Wang Yuhao narrowed his eyes and laughed sinisterly.
Lan Mengcheng frowned and said, "I'm talking to Mr. Jack. Secretary Wong, don't interrupt us. Just go to the side and take notes!"
"Heh … Maybe I should reintroduce myself!"
Wang Yuhao grinned and said, "I'm an American S.H.I.E.L.D. special agent! My nickname is the Phantom King! Jack Bryan is just a Grade-A special agent. Technically speaking, I'm his superior! It's up to me to decide whether to get to the main topic or not! "
"What? S.H.I.E.L.D.? Special agent? "Lan Mengcheng was shocked. No matter how hard she tried, she could not figure out what was going on.
"There's poison in the tea … This is a trap …" At the same time, Chen Xiaobei frowned and collapsed on the sofa.
"Xiaobei! Are you alright? "Lan Mengcheng threw the document in her hand aside and rushed to Chen Xiaobei's side.
"I'm fine … My Dantian has been sealed by the poison. I can't fight anymore …" Chen Xiaobei said.
"What … What the hell is going on? Is what he said true? "Lan Mengcheng asked impatiently.
"It's true!
"Jack Bryan is a member of the vampire family! Some time ago, the American president sent Tyler Bryan to China to kill me! This family is working for the American government! "
"As for this Phantom King … I don't know him …"
If he is really a mutant from S.H.I.E.L.D., I'm afraid that the real Secretary Wang has been killed without anyone knowing! "
"Mutant … Mutant? How is that even possible? "Lan Mengcheng could not believe it.
"Chen! You are indeed not simple! Congratulations, you've guessed all of them correctly! "The Phantom King laughed coldly, and ripples appeared all over his body.
In just a few seconds, Secretary Wang, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, had turned into a special mutant with chameleon scales on his body!
"This … This is real … Then, Secretary Wang …" Lan Mengcheng's heart skipped a beat.
"Wang Yu Hao was a pretty good secretary. When I killed him, he was working hard!" The Phantom King laughed sinisterly.
The color drained from Lan Mengcheng's face. "You … Are you going to kill me and Xiaobei as well?"
"Heh, all of you are now prisoners! It's easy if you want to die! "The Phantom King said viciously." But the American government wants you to live a life worse than death! "
