The moment Wang Wei spoke, the entire room fell silent.
While Wang Wei was speaking, Lu An did not say a word, only looking at her calmly. Meanwhile, Yang Yan was looking at the two of them. Wang Wei's initiative to speak made her reevaluate the relationship between the two for the first time.
She had always thought that this man was the one in charge, never expecting this woman to take the initiative to talk to her. She did not know why. Was it because this man only wanted to say good things and not bad things, or was this woman's actual existence much more important than she had imagined?
For a moment, Yang Yan did not know what to make of it. Right now, she had to put more thought into the conditions that Wang Wei had proposed. Naturally, she did not only have information on the Sect Star Stone in her hands, but this was already beyond the scope of this transaction. Only a glance and an instant was needed to analyze the information, but considering the pros and cons was not something that could be done in a short period of time. A transaction that was formed too hastily was likely to be at a disadvantage, so Yang Yan quickly said, "Since Mrs Chu says that the contents of the totem need to be renegotiated, why don't we discuss it at the next transaction?"
"Alright, no rush." Wang Wei was not in a hurry either. Although time was tight, things could not be done too hastily, or things would get out of hand.
Having said that, it meant that this transaction was already over. Everyone was in the Heaven Tier, and at this level and status, there was naturally no need for too many pleasantries. Soon, the three of them bade each other farewell, no one wanting to waste any time.

On an uninhabited star in the Heavenly Galaxy, it was where Wang Wei and the others were staying.
A transportation array opened, and two figures appeared one after the other. It was Lu An and Wang Wei.
This transaction could be said to have benefited from each other's needs. Both sides had obtained some information that they wanted, and could be considered to have gained something. This was only the beginning of the cooperation, and no one could possibly bring out all the information right from the start, nor could they bring out any extremely important information. They would definitely hold back some information. Thus, both sides were satisfied with the outcome of this transaction.
However … Wang Wei was also dissatisfied with something.
"Don't make decisions on your own in the future!" After arriving, Wang Wei immediately spoke. The first sentence was an order to Lu An, and even her tone was somewhat cold.
Hearing Wang Wei's words, Lu An frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Who allowed you to discuss information with him?" Wang Wei asked. "Did I say that?"
"…" Lu An frowned and asked, "Do I need your permission to do anything? Don't tell me that what I'm doing isn't beneficial to the intelligence gathering? "
"It's not about whether it's beneficial or not. It's just that you don't have the right to access so much information!" Wang Wei didn't hide her real reason and said in a deep voice, "You've crossed the line!"
"…"
Hearing Wang Wei's reprimand, Lu An's expression became very cold as he said, "In that case, why do you want me to go? You want me to pretend to be your husband and wife, and you say that I don't have the right to know about intelligence. Since that's the case, you can go by yourself next time. Do you think I like talking to others? It's not as comfortable as staying at home! "
"You!"
Wang Wei didn't think that Chu Xing would say these words. She immediately clenched her teeth in anger! However, Lu An did not back down. He looked at Wang Wei coldly.
For a moment, both sides were in a deadlock. No one said anything. Only the sound of the wind blowing on the ground could be heard.
In reality, whether or not Wang Wei brought Lu An to talk to Yang Yan didn't matter much. It wasn't that Wang Wei couldn't act on her own. There were two main reasons why she brought Lu An along.
The first reason was to let Lu An learn how to act as soon as possible. After all, from what Wang Wei knew, Lu An was only a lone trader. He definitely didn't have any intelligence gathering experience. This could be considered as training for Lu An so that Lu An could carry out some missions on his own. The second reason was that the two of them could work together. Sometimes, if one of them played the good cop and the other played the bad cop, it would be more effective. Moreover, if something happened, the two of them could take care of each other.
In Wang Wei's eyes, this Lu An was most likely used to being alone. This led to him having too much of his own thoughts. That was why he did these things.
After a few breaths, Wang Wei took a deep breath. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it! I won't argue with you this time. If there is an unexpected situation in the next operation, you must wait for me to send you a Spiritual Consciousness Sound Transmission. You must not act on your own! "
Lu An naturally didn't want to argue with Wang Wei. Moreover, it was impossible that he didn't want to participate in the operation. Therefore, he didn't speak. He just walked to the side and sat down on a rock.
"Is there anything else?" Lu An asked indifferently. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
Hearing that Lu An was leaving, Wang Wei felt even angrier. For a moment, she understood what her younger sister meant. This man was indeed not likable. Everyone was always together when carrying out missions, but this man wanted to leave for no reason. This made her very unhappy.
"No!" Wang Wei said, "The mission has not been completed. You can't leave. Come back to Jiangzhen Star with me first."
Lu An frowned and asked, "What are we going to do?"
"I'm going to report. Then we can carry out the mission together." The more Wang Wei thought about it, the angrier she got. "Do I have to explain everything to you?"
"… …"
Seeing that Lu An didn't speak, Wang Wei opened the Transmission Array and said to Lu An, "Let's go!"
Wang Wei looked as if she was worried that Lu An would run away by himself.
Lu An naturally couldn't leave. He still had to listen to Wang Wei's words. At least, he didn't have the ability to replace Wang Wei. He didn't speak and directly walked into the Transmission Array.
Seeing Lu An enter and disappear, Wang Wei's expression became a little better. She also entered the Transmission Array.

Jiangzhen Star, in a remote palace.
The Transmission Array opened, followed by the figures of Lu An and Wang Wei. Wang Wei didn't even speak to Lu An and directly left the palace. It was obvious that Lu An really made her angry.
However, after Wang Wei left, Lu An didn't stay there quietly. Although Lu An's wisdom wasn't top-notch, he had Liu Yi, who was top-notch. Liu Yi told Lu An that he couldn't only interact with Wang Wei. Liu Yi accurately judged the importance of Jiang Zhen's status. It was precisely because of this that she told Lu An to interact with Jiang Zhen more. This way, he could gain Jiang Ping's trust faster.
In Liu Yi's judgment, Jiang Zhen's importance was much higher than an outsider, Wang Wei. If Jiang Zhen felt that Lu An was trustworthy, it wasn't impossible for him to replace Wang Wei.
Thus, Lu An left the palace and walked towards Jiang Zhen's courtyard. Lu An naturally remembered where Jiang Zhen's courtyard was. Not long later, Lu An arrived outside Jiang Zhen's courtyard.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhen just happened to appear at the entrance.
Most of the time, Jiang Zhen was out on missions. She would only return to her courtyard for a short period of time. The two of them just happened to meet at the entrance. When Jiang Zhen noticed Lu An's arrival, she was slightly surprised. She naturally wouldn't forget Lu An. Moreover, she had personally observed Lu An.
"Miss Jiang Zhen." Lu An cupped his hands and greeted.
"Why is Young Master Chu here?" Jiang Zhen smiled and said, "Is something the matter?"
"There isn't anything important." Lu An said, "It's just that I just returned from a mission and felt a little uneasy. So, I wanted to come and sit with Miss."
"I see." Jiang Zhen nodded lightly. With Lu An's reclusive personality, he might not be very likable. He wasn't suitable for team missions. However, she got along well with Lu An and they had gone on missions together. They could be considered to have some feelings for each other. She said, "Young Master Chu, please come in."
The two of them entered the courtyard and arrived at the guest hall. There was only Jiang Zhen in the huge courtyard. There were no maids. Jiang Zhen poured a cup of blood wine for Lu An and said, "Young Master, please enjoy."
Lu An picked up the wine cup and downed it. Jiang Zhen looked at Lu An's appearance and felt unhappy. She smiled and asked, "What happened to make Young Master Chu so angry?"
Since they were here, Lu An naturally wouldn't hide anything. He told Jiang Zhen about his conflict with Wang Huan and Han Qing, as well as the contents of his quarrel with Wang Wei. Of course, Lu An definitely wouldn't reveal the contents of the negotiation. Otherwise, it would be leaking information and cause Jiang Zhen's trust in him to drop. He wanted to show that even though he was angry, he didn't reveal the contents of the negotiation. He only wanted to say that Wang Wei wanted him to negotiate with the other party, but she still found trouble with him.
