Chapter 371 Attending a Meeting
In the early morning, Chen Chuan opened his eyes and woke up from a deep sleep.
Normally he never dreams, but last night a series of scenes appeared in his sleep.
The character who appeared the most was a woman with light brown hair, which seemed not dyed but natural. In those scenes, he had many conversations with her from the first person perspective.
He could easily feel that the person he was talking to was his mother Yu Zhen.
The conversation scene between the two people is not limited to one place. It is like a real dream fragment, with many jump-like changes. Sometimes it seems to be in the cabin of a ship, sometimes on a rugged mountain road, and sometimes in a magnificent temple.
On the surface, the two people seemed to have been traveling to different places, and some of the scenery was obviously not in Dashun.
He also found that this woman looked very similar to Yu Zhen, but her temperament was very different. If it were not for the fact that the content of their conversation showed that they were just good friends, he would almost think that she was another sister of his mother.
Most of the time, the two of them talked about adventure topics and famous places of interest, and occasionally talked about clothing combinations and favorite accessories.
It can be seen that this memory should have been before this body was born.
He felt that Yu Zhen might have left this memory in order to share her own experience from that year with him, which he thought was indeed very precious. But if that was the case, there seemed to be no need to hide it so tightly. Or was it that there was no way to completely control the transmission of these memories?
Or did he leave these behind along with the key information?
The last scenario is possible.
Then there must be more crucial content hidden in his memory, but he just can't see it at the moment.
In fact, even if there is no important information left in it, it doesn’t matter. He has already embarked on his own path and is gradually moving towards his goal. As long as he keeps going, when he reaches higher, those answers that he could not find before will appear in front of him one by one.
He stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and the light from outside immediately shone in.
He looked outside. Today was September 10th, a day off, the day he and Meng Shu had agreed to meet.
He was going to go and see what his old classmate was going to say to him.
After standing in front of the window for a while, he went back to wash up, then took out the boundary pass and put it on. As soon as he turned it on, a prompt sound came from it.
That was the news I hadn't finished reading yesterday, a list of medicines that could be purchased cheaply sent from Qingnang Yufang.
He took a look and found that they were all commonly used by third-level fighters and did not involve any special drugs.
As expected.
He could imagine that even if he became a drug tester of Qingnang Yufang again, these would at most be provided for free, and those special drugs would probably not be provided to him.
Unless he joined the Qingnang Jade House and became an internal member.
I crossed out the message, went to get some nutritional cream, took some medicine, and then went to the training room to do my daily routine of practice and skill training.
Around noon, he came out to wash up and prepare to go to the appointment.
Meng Shu invited him in the name of integrating boundaries, rather than as an old classmate, which meant that this time they would mainly discuss company matters, so he washed up and changed into a uniform of the processing bureau.
After changing Chaoming's water and food, he took the Xuejun Knife and walked out the door. After getting his car from the underground garage, he contacted Gao Ming and said, "Gao Ming, I'm out now."
Gao Ming said, "Cousin, I've also booked a private room there. Feel free to consult me if you have any questions."
Chen Chuan said hello and drove to Shutianxia Hotel. This time he did not take the mountain road, but took the sightseeing elevator up.
In order to facilitate the conversation this time, Fusion Boundary booked an entire independent courtyard here. When he walked in, a rich fragrance of osmanthus wafted in.
The layout here is exquisite and elegant, and the surrounding area is dotted with stone landscapes full of natural interest. The clear stream flowing under the small stone bridge makes a gurgling sound. There are quiet and elegant bamboos at the entrance and near the water. When the breeze blows, they make rustling sounds. There are no complicated light curtains outside, and it is obviously very quiet and elegant.
He came and sat down on an old-fashioned round stool covered with cushions. After a while, he heard footsteps. He looked up and saw Meng Shu walking in.
She had her hair in a hanging bun today, wore a plain cross-collared short jacket, and a blue printed long skirt. A female assistant followed her. When she arrived in front of the court, she waved her hand, and the female assistant bowed and left.
Meng Shu walked across the small stone bridge and came to Chen Chuan. She sat down on the round stool opposite him and looked at him. "Before I saw that video, I didn't expect you to make it that far. But I always thought you were very good. This proves that I was right."
Chen Chuan discovered that perhaps it was due to an experience they had in their childhood. Although they hadn't seen each other for a long time, they didn't feel too unfamiliar.
He said, "I haven't seen you for two years, and you haven't changed much. From childhood to adulthood, you have always been very confident in everything you do."
Meng Shu shook her head slightly and said, "That's just because of my family background and the wealth I have. I haven't had time to achieve anything commendable. Without these, there would be no such thing as self-confidence.
I am very grateful that my parents gave me this background, but these things need to be carefully maintained. Nothing in the world can last forever."
She looked at Chen Chuan and said, "I'm very happy that you can do what you want and succeed. I'm also a little envious, but I can't do it, so now, I need your help."
Chen Chuan asked, "Are you doing this as an old classmate, or as a fusion company?"
Meng Shu said: "The fusion boundary is not mine yet. What I need to do is to make it mine. Whether I like it or not, I can't retreat."
Chen Chuan said: "Inheritance rights?"
Meng Shu said without hesitation, "Yes." Then she looked at him and asked, "You know about that incident, right?"
Chen Chuan knew what she was referring to and nodded, "I see."
Meng Shu said, "I don't know what the Bureau and you will say, but they will definitely have some reservations."
Chen Chuan said: "I feel the same."
Meng Shu looked at him and said, "Although the government and the companies currently share the same stance, their priorities are different. The government focuses on defending the World Ring, while the major companies also do this, but their primary purpose is to search for lost artifacts."
Chen Chuan had never heard of this before, so he asked directly, "What is that?"
"The boundary where the two worlds collided and merged, where the World Ring is now established, did not appear suddenly, but was formed over a long period of time. During past periods of change, the two worlds were extremely close many times. The intersection of the worlds caused many physical objects that corresponded to the two worlds to appear there.
They may be alive, or they may be things that are still difficult to understand. They are collectively called "lost objects" and were collected by imperial families of various countries in the past.
Today, many of the technologies of major companies, in addition to those developed by this world itself, are derived from imitating and studying these lost technologies. Therefore, the government and even major companies are still diligently pursuing these things.
However, the relics outside the World Ring are almost gone, so now we need to get closer to the ring curtain, or even go beyond the World Ring to search. And these relics can only be touched or captured by fighters who are fully prepared."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Do you want me to help you get those things?"
Meng Shu shook her head, "It's very dangerous to go there, and even if you can get it back, I won't gain any substantial benefits except winning some praise.
My cousin controls most of the company's business. He can use this to recruit people, form new research teams, establish new projects, and make more people grateful to him. It is meaningless for me to do these now. If I compete with him within the framework of the company, he will always gain more benefits than me.
Even though I did something beneficial to the company and gained my grandfather's support, I knew that the root of all this was force. Once he felt threatened, he only needed to send a suitable person to physically eliminate me, and everything I did would be accepted by him.
And my grandfather would abandon me, who was no longer valuable, without hesitation, abandoning the heir who couldn't even protect himself.
So I have to make sure I’m safe.”
She looked at Chen Chuan and laid out her conditions. "Chen Chuan, if you're willing to come, I can give you all the resources I can muster under the pretext of searching for lost items."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Old classmate, regardless of my abilities, if you are willing to invest, I believe it shouldn't be difficult to recruit others."
Meng Shu said, "But I can't trust any of these people. I can't be sure whether they secretly accepted my cousin's conditions."
She looked at Chen Chuan and said seriously, "I've watched your videos and consulted many people. They all affirmed your talent. Your ability is unquestionable, and I am more willing to believe in you.
And I can promise that after I become the successor of Fusion Boundary, I can give you the greatest support. Although Fusion Boundary is not a top enterprise, we are an important partner of domestic military industry. We maintain a good cooperative relationship with the government, and our business is also expanding internationally.
The company is always on the rise, and even if it can't become world-class, I believe there is no other place that can provide such conditions as a company's resources to fully support one person."
