章節 80: Invitation
In a certain part of K Country, there exist an exquisite office occupied by the most mysterious person leading an organization that was unknown and well-known at the same time.
The man who was around 30 years old entered the office of the leader. He was the only one who could do so. The rest of the members were simply not allowed to even be present on that particular floor where the leader was residing.
Yes, the office and the leader's residence were both located on that top most floor. The entire building was owned by this particular organization. It's composed of 21 floors but only the 14th to 21st floor were occupied by their organization and the rest were normal commercial spaces.
"Boss, the meeting was successful. We were able to get excellent possible sponsors for the further development of that ammunition." The man politely reported.
Their boss just arrived yesterday from a certain trip thus he was able to report only today. He was advised not to use any communication device during the time the leader was on trip.
"Good. Who are they?"
"They're the powerful families in K Country. There was also from Q City."
"Q City?" The leader was surprised. Their original goal to attract sponsors from other country didn't bear a fruitless effort. "Which family?"
"Chen Family. The Third Young Master Chen personally attended the meeting."
"I see. That must be Chen Dewei."
"Yes, boss. It was Chen Dewei."
"Is there any other powerful family from Q City that is present in K country now?"
"The Liu Family recently bought the Imperial Chain of Hotels. They're still in the middle of organizing the overall management of it so they're also here." It was a pretty big news in the business world when the biggest chain of hotels in the country was bought by the Liu Family. Everyone became aware of it including himself.
"Oh, they're not interested?"
"We didn't send an invite." The man started to sweat after he answered. He felt that his boss was starting to grill him for not doing what he should be doing. He simply thought it wasn't necessary since the Liu Family probably would not stay longer in K Country. He was only ordered to inform the selected influential people in K Country.
"How did Chen Dewei become aware of that meeting?"
"Mr. Kuo invited him. The two families have been partners." The man answered and tried to stabilized his voice.
The leader nodded seemingly analyzing the news from the man.
"Send an invitation to Liu Family. Let us see if they're interested as well."
"Yes." The man bowed then left afterwards when he saw the leader signed to dismiss him.
"Liu Family,.. Welcome to K Country." The leader said as those pair of eyes emitted a dazzling light from within. It wasn't clear if they're expressing excitement due to happiness or animosity.

That invitation landed on the hand of Liu Zilong. He stared at it for quite sometime before he decided to inform his father.
Personally he wanted to burn it as he didn't really want to support a research that would do more harm than good. Well, it was only his opinion. Maybe his father would be able to utilize this information thus he eventually kept it to show it later on.
Together with the invitation, the result of the test Han Meixiu did earlier also arrived.
When the young woman received it, her calm demeanor started to show restlessness once again. She decided to open it later on after dinner to not spoil her mood for the entire evening. She had to admit, she's really worried with whatever was written on it.
Although the physical exam done earlier showed a favorable result, the blood test which would confirm the doctor's initial diagnosis would bear more weight on her over all result.
She sighed as she placed the sealed folder inside the drawer.
When she was about to leave the room, Liu Zijian came in.
"It's time for dinner?" She asked her husband. She thought he came to call her for dinner.
"Not yet." He answered while his gaze didn't leave her.
Han Meixiu started to knit her eyebrows as she waited for him to say something.
But couple of minutes already past and he didn't say anything. He only intensely looked at her.
She started to wonder if she has something on her face thus her hands subconsciously touched her face to check if there's something on it even though she just washed it recently.
There was nothing.
"Zijian?" She tried to call him as he became somewhat lost in his thoughts.
He breathed deeply before he answered.
"Do you want to know something about me?" He softly said. His father didn't really give him a clear step by step advice as the latter only said he should figure it out himself.
Mr. Liu only told him, if he wanted something from his wife, he should give it first.
He then concluded, if he would tell Han Meixiu about himself then she might tell him about herself as well, right?
But since he didn't know what would be the things she wanted to know about him, it was only appropriate to ask her that question.
Han Meixiu seemingly got lost when she heard his question. Of course, she wanted to know a lot of things about him but why did he suddenly ask?
She knew Liu Zijian was someone who would not want to talk about himself. She was planning to gather information from people around him and observe him thoroughly to get to know him entirely.
She simply believed that it's still better to know a person from other people's perspective and not directly from that particular person.
Besides, she actually expected that Liu Zijian might summarize his characteristics in few direct words that might sound uninteresting at all.
When she imagined how would the Second Young Master Liu probably describe himself, her lips started to curl up. He might resemble someone reciting his basic information as if he's simply writing a resume.
Since his wife took time to answer, he continued.
"I want to know more about you, too." He then walked towards her to closed their distance.
'Hold on! Why this statement make me nervous and happy at the same time?' She suddenly thought as she felt his warm embrace enveloped her.
