Wang Zheng really did not have any impression. The woman in front of him was very mature and elegant, but she was emitting a seductive aura from her bones. Only the expression and tone at that moment reminded Wang Zheng of a person.
“You are… Yue Jing?” Wang Zheng was also stunned. This… was too outrageous. “Didn’t you transfer to a school in the European region? Why did you come here?”
Wang Zheng was a little surprised. They had some grudges from that year, but he thought he had not done anything to her at the time. Yue Jing actually came to Maklou and became the family head of Hong Lirong. This change was a bit large.
A trace of anger flashed past Yue Jing’s face. Everything that she had, the source of her tragedy, but what she had experienced in the past few years allowed her to control her emotions very well now.
There was a faint smile on her face. Mobo was also stunned. “You are classmates?”
Wang Zheng smiled. “Yes, we’re classmates, but…”
Wang Zheng did not finish his sentence, but obviously it was not a situation where a person would be touched to see a friend from the same hometown. The other party might have encountered unimaginable things in the past few years. A change like heaven and earth turning upside down would not be an overstatement.
“Since you are an old acquaintance, let’s sit down.” Yue Jing walked over, and the two dogs behind her also clambered down obediently.
Both of them sized each other up. Clearly, it was a bit unbelievable to meet here. What happened in the past seemed unworthy of mention, but Wang Zheng was also not sure what the other party was thinking now. It was also because she had taken the initiative to mess things up. However, standing in the perspective of Yue Jing, she might not think so. A young, rich lady fell to the point that she had to enter this kind of industry; although she was standing at the top, you could tell that it was probably not a good thing by looking at her “pets”, and seeing how her character had changed drastically. Wang Zheng still stayed on guard in his heart.
“Old classmate, long time no see. We are really fated. How is that fat guy Yan Xiaosu now?”
Yue Jing laughed and clapped her hands. Immediately, a messenger came in and offered hot tea. “Try it, our authentic Longjing from Earth. It is very rare.”
Wang Zheng smiled. He really did not dare to drink this tea. “Just casually mixing around. Yan Xiaosu’s character is like that, but you really shocked me.”
“You flatter me. Compared to you guys, I still lack a bit.” Yue Jing laughed. At this moment, Yue Jing became very dignified and elegant. People who were unaware would definitely think that she came from a distinguished family. Of course, it would be more believable if the two pets could step back for a while.
“Titatitan Star’s Ambassador, looks like you guys have really been thriving quite well in the past few years. Classmate Wang Zheng, we are already so familiar with each other. Just speak freely,” Yue Jing said laughingly.
Wang Zheng smiled. The Yue Jing now had really changed too much. Wang Zheng did not dare to belittle her. This woman emitted a very stable aura, and she could make any changes as she wished. “I will make a deal. Tita Star will form an alliance with Maklou, economically and politically.”
Wang Zheng expressed half of his thoughts, watching Yue Jing’s reaction. Yue Jing also looked at Wang Zheng and Mobo with a smile.
“This is, of course, a good thing. You will definitely not lose out if you cooperate with Maklou.” Yue Jing smiled. “But, old classmate, you should not meddle in other things.”
Wang Zheng smiled. “This is the world of the Milky Way Alliance. I hope that the balance will remain. Otherwise, the Milky Way Alliance will not ignore the current situation. Once…”
Yue Jing smiled and waved her hand. “Old classmate, this is not the world of the Milky Way Alliance. It is nothing but a puppet. This is the world of experts. What you worry about is not an issue at all. Shouldn’t you have grown up after what you experienced on Tita Star? In this world, relying on others will never be better than relying on yourself. We form alliances, and both sides will gain benefits. The Milky Way Alliance is more cowardly than you think. Right, Mr. Mobo?”
Mobo face darkened. “Hong Lirong, you really want to force this into a desperate situation!”
Yue Jing laughed. “Old man, don’t be anxious. We have a tradition on Earth. That is to respect the elderly. Give me the key, and you can leave with some of your properties and enjoy the rest of your life. As for the rest, don’t worry about it. A person’s lifetime is not that much.”
“I have a request!” Mobo said.
“Oh, please state your request.” Yue Jing was still so calm.
“I can give you the thing, but I want little Julian to go with me. If we leave, we won’t come back again!” Mobo said seriously. In fact, this was the real purpose of him coming here. He did not think that Wang Zheng could do anything. If he continued to delay, they would just die, so he should just lay his cards down. At least with Wang Zheng around, it might lead to a better discussion. In fact, the only important thing in Mobo’s heart was little Julian.
Yue Jing smiled. “It seems like you have really set your heart on the little brat. Fine. Give me the things, and you two can leave.”
Mobo shook his head. “Hong Lirong, don’t make empty promises. You have to let us go first, then I will arrange for someone to give you the key.”
Yue Jing’s expression suddenly froze. “Mr. Mobo, are you so old that you became dumb? We can kill you all and slowly find the key. Also, the key is actually not necessary.”
Wang Zheng knocked on the table and broke the deadlock. “Ahem, I said you two, don’t be anxious. Yue Jing, do you really think that the Milky Way Alliance will not care about what happens here?”
Yue Jing glanced at Wang Zheng. No one had called her this name for many years, but now everything was awakened.
That year, there was only one dead end in front of her, and it was an unimaginable, unbelievable dead end. She never dreamed that there was such a large organization with so much power in the human world, and she, the daughter of a former politician, was disposed of just like that.
But in the face of death, Yue Jing made another choice. Only experts could survive in this world. Even if it was a strong organization, it still needed people and talents. She was a talent, because she would do anything just to live.
As it turned out, she was right. Although she had sacrificed everything in the process, she had survived.
Yue Jing glanced faintly at Wang Zheng. “Even if the Milky Way Alliance comes, what can they do? Do you really think that this world belongs to the Milky Way Alliance?”
“Of course, Yue Jing. Please stop now. I am now a member of the Milky Way Alliance’s Elite Academy X. I can speak to the higher-ups. If you are willing to work for the Milky Way Alliance, you will definitely gain both fame and fortune. Also, who in this world can go against the Milky Way Alliance? Even Aslan and Arbiter wouldn’t dare to do that,” Wang Zheng said righteously.
Yue Jing stared blankly at Wang Zheng and burst out into laughter. Wang Zheng had really studied till he became stupid. He had even revealed his own origins. As expected, he was someone from the academy. He thought that the Milky Way Alliance would uphold justice and righteousness. In this world, there was no righteousness, only power.
She was not as strong as Ye Zisu, not as strong as the Chronos family, so she had reached her current position step by step. Who would uphold justice for her?
“Wang Zheng, don’t be childish. The Milky Way Alliance is just a good-looking puppet. Aslan, Arbiter, they are all frogs at the bottom of the well. The real power in this world is…” Yue Jing said proudly. Her eyes were filled with condescending mercy. But when it was the crucial point, she suddenly stop talking.
Looking at Wang Zheng, “Wang Zheng, for so many years, you are still so sly. We are old friends, and you still use this act of looking silly to provoke me.”
Wang Zheng’s heart sank. The nature of man was hard to change. This was Yue Jing’s weakness. She was easy to provoke. Others might not, but a few special people could do it. Although it was only a little bit, it was already enough!
Mobo had made a mistake. Unlike the Julian family, Hong Lirong and the Bill family had been controlled by an organization. So much so that Hong Lirong was actually the leader. The Bill family was probably just a weapon on the surface. If this organization was the mastermind, they would make use of the Bill family’s weapon to kill the Julian family, and then use Hong Lirong to kill the Bill family. After that, they would negotiate with the Milky Way Alliance. Under certain circumstances, the Milky Way Alliance might really silently approve Maklou’s current situation.
But Maklou would then totally be in the hands of this secret organization.
Yue Jing was right about this. He absolutely believed that the Milky Way Alliance would do it. The Milky Way Alliance only requested for Maklou to fall under their jurisdiction and to maintain the current situation. This was something that the Bill family could not do, but based on the Hong Lirong family’s situation, they definitely could do it. Besides, they definitely had their own people in the Milky Way Alliance.
This… was too scary.
Just for a moment, Wang Zheng cleared up his thoughts. The Milky Way Alliance probably did not expect this either. From the beginning, this mastermind organization’s plan was not to turn it immediately into a desperate situation, but to do it step by step.
This was a well-thought and long-term layout.
The trend of things was a little beyond his imagination.
Yue Jing’s Skylink rang, and she saw a piece of information about Yan Xiaosu, Ye Zisu, and Wang Zheng.
During these years, she could not pay too much attention to these people, including Lear. This was a rule set by the organization. She did not belong to herself anymore. From her body to spirit, she belonged to the organization. She had to do everything the organization asked her to do. She must not do things that the organization disallowed her to do, including revenge.
Yue Jing was absolutely afraid to defy the organization, because she knew the power of this organization very clearly. It could turn ordinary people into superhumans and grant them power. Similarly, they could use countless methods to make their traitors wish that they were dead instead of alive.
But when Wang Zheng came to her himself, she had the right to find out.
Obviously, based on the information she got, these three people had been living too good lives, all of which stemmed from her misery.
Yue Jing looked and looked at it, smiling very brightly…
