Chapter 102 Species
Lu Xiwen wiped the moisture off the screen and suddenly remembered what everyone in the company thought of Pei Wu, saying that he had changed a lot.
Someone like Ji Bin used to be able to embarrass him, but not anymore.
Lu Xiwen was arrogant but not narcissistic. He knew that Pei Wu's rapid growth came from his gradually enriched and powerful spiritual core. Pei Wu, who seemed gentle and easy to talk to, was an extremely ambitious person. In the past, he would shy away when Lu Xiwen teased him, but now he could clearly express his desires when they looked at each other.
Lu Xiwen is really proud.
"Wife, don't look at me like that." Lu Xiwen walked towards the coffee table with his phone in hand. Whether it was intentional or not, the camera was focused on a patch of his chest and abdomen that was barely visible. As he spoke, Lu Xiwen pulled his bathrobe up to wipe the water droplets off his neck, and his Adam's apple bobbed violently.
Pei Wu: "..."
That's too deliberate, Mr. Lu.
But it's beautiful, I love watching it.
Pei Wu wasn't too bothered by the Omega who appeared next to Lu Xiwen after arriving in Country C. Compared to someone's indiscriminate attacks, he was more concerned about Lu Xiwen's attitude.
His Alpha is chaste, so there won't be any problems.
The two video-chatted for over an hour until Pei Wu, calculating the time in Country C, told him to take a break.
Lu Xiwen lazily agreed, only stopping after tricking Pei Wu into calling him "baby" in a deep voice.
Otherwise, what do you mean by courting death?
Pei Wu would blush slightly after shouting and have some tea. If he hadn't met Lu Xiwen, he wouldn't have had much of a need for that, since he had many other things on his mind. But Lu Xiwen still had to take a cold shower.
After a short four-hour nap, Lu Xiwen got up feeling refreshed.
Archer's car was already waiting downstairs. The traces of the shootout between the two sides had been cleaned up not far away. The daytime in Country C was clear and crisp, and it looked thriving again.
Archer was very polite to Lu Xiwen, especially after seeing how he beat up those thugs like cutting melons and vegetables last night. He felt that he was almost fifty years old and his pheromones had long since dissipated. He was afraid that if Lu Xiwen pushed him, he would fall apart.
The car drove into a hillside estate.
The mountain is covered with fruit trees, including apples and plums, a vast expanse of bright red fruit. Against this backdrop, a white castle-style building stands amidst the trees.
As soon as you enter the gate, two enormous bulldogs start barking incessantly.
Lu Xiwen leaned against the car frame with one hand, staring coldly at the two beasts.
As it barked, the bulldog tucked its tail between its legs and lay down.
Archer glanced warily at the rearview mirror.
Lu Xiwen guessed that the two bulldogs must have been carefully bred by the head of the Konot family and had a strong intention to attack people. The manor seemed peaceful and warm, with warm colors, but Lu Xiwen could still instinctively smell the blood deep in the soil.
Passing through the neatly manicured garden, Lu Xiwen saw a figure brewing tea in a pavilion.
Although the other party was sitting, their presence was very strong, and they even blended into the flow of feng shui in this area.
As soon as the person stood up, there was a very obvious change in the magnetic field around him.
A faint scent wafted to his nose, like the aroma of everything lying flat on the ground under the afternoon sun in Cangshan Mountain. It was easy to mistake it for the scent of fruit trees, but Lu Xiwen still managed to pinpoint it as pheromones.
"Mr. Lu is here?" The other person spoke fluent Chinese and stood up and turned around, displaying a gentlemanly demeanor. He was wearing a rather old-fashioned black suit, with a style that seemed to have returned to the last century. His eyes were grayish, his appearance was refined, and his bone structure was quite three-dimensional. He exuded an extremely warm and friendly aura.
"My name is Amos." The other person bowed slightly. "Welcome."
“Lu Xiwen”
Lu Xiwen simply shook hands with Amos, and the unfathomable power emanating from the other man seemed to resonate within his very blood.
Not long after Lu Xiwen took his seat, Lei Si also arrived, but today he didn't have many fancy moves. Instead, he was very obedient and acted as a waiter pouring tea.
They may have wanted to create an atmosphere of "a beauty by your side" in the East, but Lu Xiwen really couldn't stand the pheromones on Lai Si's body.
Amos quickly realized what was happening and ordered Lys to leave.
Leith's pupils went unfocused, deeply shocked. She staggered to her feet, stood there stunned for a few seconds, and then headed straight for the back garden, where workers were mowing the lawn. Several of them seemed interested in Leith.
Lais randomly grabbed two people and released their pheromones. After seeing the other person blush and their heart race instantly, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, it was Lu Xiwen's problem.
Leith was rejuvenated.
Over here, Lu Xiwen is discussing with Amos how the new inhibitor should be distributed to the market after it is introduced into Country C.
“Archer is being naive. I can sign the agreement that President Lu wants. The Konot family will always serve the people.” Amos’s voice was deep and mellow. He was more than ten years older than Lu Xiwen and had a kind of radiant quality that came with the passage of time. Especially on such a golden afternoon, time seemed to slow down.
The words that came out of Amos's mouth carried a convincing quality.
Lu Xiwen stared intently at Amos until Amos had his men bring up the drafted agreement. Lu Xiwen carefully reviewed it and found no problems whatsoever; all that was needed was his signature.
Amos breathed a sigh of relief, as if a major concern had been resolved. After drinking two cups of tea, he changed the subject, "The higher the pheromone level of an Alpha, the more profit-driven they are. Ordinary people are like ants in their eyes because genes determine the difference between the two species. But it's quite rare that President Lu would sell such a golden potion at a low price in China for the sake of the Omega's inhibitor problem. He even asked me for a guarantee when he went abroad."
Lu Xiwen ignored all the praise and softly repeated, "Species?"
"We're both human, Mr. Amos, who serves the people. Is this how you define the difference between ordinary people and high-ranking Alphas?"
Archer felt a chill run down his spine instantly. The wind howled from the mountain and whistled sharply as it squeezed into the manor.
Amos made no move, simply staring calmly at Lu Xiwen.
After a long pause, Amos smiled and asked, "So, Mr. Lu, do you think these two things can coexist peacefully?"
Lu Xiwen countered, "Do you think it's possible?"
Amos stood up and looked at the red silk fluttering among the fruit trees on the mountain. "The first top-tier being born in this world had the ideal of benefiting the people, but as you and I know, the result was a six-month-long strangulation. People were obsessed with the secrets on his body, and the other parts of his body disappeared. One of his leg bones is still in a museum in a certain country, used to let the world understand that top-tier beings can be completely killed."
Amos turned to look at Lu Xiwen, his expression still gentle, but his pupils revealed a primal and ruthless indifference, hardened by countless days and nights of hardship.
