Li Xin'er suddenly appeared in the heated meeting room, and the room fell silent as if a chokehold had been instantly seized.
Lu Jin'an and Lu Zheng reacted quickly, immediately getting up to greet them.
"Miss Li!"
The others, as if waking from a dream, once again voiced their doubts.
Who is this?
"Did you see how she appeared? Am I seeing things?"
"His surname is Li, could he be that mysterious supplier?"
Some of those present had already met Li Xin'er with Lu Zheng, and they nodded quietly, giving those people the answer.
It's her.
Many people found it unbelievable, saying, "She's so young."
"This must be a teleportation ability in addition to spatial abilities."
Yu Wanling had seen Li Xin'er's photo in the system's information, but this was the first time she had seen Li Xin'er in person.
That excessively beautiful, almost unreal beauty stirred up boundless jealousy in Yu Wanling's heart.
Furthermore, considering the attitude of Lu Jin'an, Lu Zheng, and others towards Li Xin'er, compared to her own current state of being terrified and embarrassed by the system, Yu Wanling felt even more unbalanced.
She's a chosen one with a system, why should she be outshone by a celebrity!
Yu Wanling crossed her arms to appear more imposing, and angrily called out to Lu Zheng, who was still talking to Li Xin'er, to stop him.
"Base Commander, what I want to say is probably inconvenient with outsiders present."
Li Xin'er's identity had just been revealed to everyone, while Yu Wanling was being questioned at the time and had no chance to find out.
She was full of confidence, believing that she was now a very important presence for the entire base, and even for all of humanity.
If she were to speak, all the managers present would definitely kick Li Xin'er out without any mercy.
Unfortunately, things did not go as she had planned.
Lu Zheng glanced at Yu Wanling indifferently, as if she were an insignificant clown, and completely ignored her, directly introducing her to the crowd:
"The lady next to me is Ms. Li Xin'er, who delivered supplies to the base this time."
Those present probably already knew about it privately, so the remark didn't cause much of a reaction.
But Du Zhiyuan was still furious about Lu Zheng's previous actions, so he deliberately let out a sneer.
"Ha, if you knew her, you'd think she was just a saleswoman, but if you didn't, you'd think the Spark Base was her home, with high-level conference rooms she could come and go as she pleased."
The moment he finished speaking, Li Xin'er, who had been standing next to Lu Zheng, appeared behind Du Zhiyuan's seat.
And in her hand, a crescent-shaped dagger was placed against Du Zhiyuan's neck.
"Not only can I come and go as I please, but I can also kill you whenever I want~ Do you believe me?"
Of those present, only Lu Jin'an somewhat understood Li Xin'er's personality; the others were completely taken aback by her directness...
Du Zhiyuan felt the coldness on his neck, and his whole body stiffened as if he had fallen into a deep, icy pool.
"What...what do you want to do..."
Someone urgently tried to dissuade her, saying, "Miss Li! Show mercy!"
Some felt provoked, wondering, "What does she mean by this? Does she not respect us at all?"
"Commander Lu! Are you just going to let her run rampant like this?"
But some people weren't nervous at all; on the contrary, they thought Li Xin'er did the right thing! They'd disliked Du Zhiyuan for a long time!
Li Xin'er held her curved knife to Du Zhiyuan's neck without moving it, but she didn't directly hurt him either. Lu Zheng then realized that Li Xin'er might not really want to make a move.
He continued, "There's one more thing. Regarding what we just discussed, all the information we have comes from Miss Li."
If it came to any supplies, they would only be polite to Li Xin'er.
But everyone was surprised when they heard Lu Zheng say that!
Only Yu Wanling, after a moment of surprise, immediately shook her head in denial, refuting it in a particularly loud voice.
"That's impossible! How could she possibly know!"
Lu Zheng's expression remained unchanged; he simply stated the facts calmly.
"Whether it's true or not, you've probably already found out during our questioning."
Yu Wanling was struck dumb, frozen in place.
She asked how Lu Zheng and the others knew. Was it Li Xin'er?
How did Li Xin'er find out?
"System, system, did you hear that? It was Li Xin'er who leaked it!"
"How could she know so much? Is she one of your people?"
Yu Wanling kept connecting with the system in her mind, her tone urgent.
"Now that we know it was her, and not me who leaked it, does that mean I won't be penalized for breach of contract?"
"System! Contact your mainframe immediately!"
She continued talking enthusiastically, even without receiving a reply from the system, and the more she talked, the more convinced she seemed to be of herself, becoming increasingly agitated.
"System, you can eliminate Li Xin'er! Since she exposed your existence, let her be punished!"
If the system eliminates Li Xin'er, not only will she be safe, but the world will also be rid of the person she hates most. That couldn't be better...
After Yu Wanling finished reciting the sentences in her mind, Li Xin'er's voice rang out.
"You're not much to look at, but you have quite the imagination."
She looked up abruptly and saw Li Xin'er, who was already sitting in the main seat, staring at her with interest.
Just as she was lost in thought and communicating with the system, everyone else present, except for Du Zhiyuan and his few die-hard followers, looked at her with burning eyes, as if she were a hot commodity.
Although Li Xin'er didn't actually kill Du Zhiyuan directly, she sealed his throat with her soul power.
