Chapter 456 You Can’t Protect Him, But I Can



Don't be in a hurry, wait a little longer.

This statement was beyond everyone's expectations, and even the leader on the opposite side was stunned for a moment.

"Why, you still want to wait for Xiao Yunting to come? If he can't come, the problems at Seer Rose University and the mess at the company will be enough to hold him back for a while." The leader thought she was stalling for time, so he bluntly asked, "And even if he comes, do you think the plan will be aborted?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the faint pressure from this superior spread out, making the entire room solemn and dignified.

Ye Lan stared at him, her clear eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and the corners of her crimson lips slowly curled up.

"I see." She nodded in understanding, understanding his thoughts and said, "Use me to clear the obstacles, and at the same time, leave my life in a foreign country, so that Xiao Yunting will give up his thoughts. It's like killing two birds with one stone."

What a good plan.

As the pleasant and clear voice fell, the atmosphere in the entire conference room froze instantly.

The bosses on both sides frowned, and even the leader in the main seat had a gloomy expression.

"Ye Lan, stop talking." Shi Feng was so scared that he almost had a heart attack. He rushed forward and pressed her shoulders.

If he wasn't afraid of being beaten, he would have gone up and covered the girl's mouth.

Do you know what level of identities these people have? Even if they are disciples of Xuanzong or masters of magic, haven't there been many who died at the hands of those in power throughout history?

Although he didn't know why the higher-ups wanted to intervene in the relationship between Xiao Yunting and the girl, he put himself in the girl's shoes and just wanted to advise her: Break up, your life is more important.

"You're really smart, but you don't know how to hide your shortcomings." The leader looked at her for a long moment and shook his head, somewhat disappointed. "You'll harm him sooner or later."

It goes without saying who he is referring to.

At this moment, a senior general on the left snorted coldly and said rudely, "You young maiden, relying on your abilities to act so high-profile, do you think no one knows about your fortune-telling and tricks in the live broadcast room?"

In today's Internet age, it seems that there is a high degree of freedom of anonymous speech, but in fact all public information is more transparent and open.

Even if the camera at home has never been turned on, it can be manually turned on and reviewed at any time as long as the superiors need it.

Therefore, Ye Lan’s every move on the Internet since his rebirth has not escaped the eyes of these people.

Ye Lan wasn't surprised when he heard that. He shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I haven't broken any laws or committed any crimes, so there's nothing to be afraid of. I've helped you guys a few times, but you haven't even given me a banner."

Isn't it a bit shameless to criticize her for this now?

"You!" The man nearly exploded with rage. He pointed at her and slammed the table, his fingers trembling as he said, "Even if you're not thinking about yourself, don't you think about Xiao Yunting? He's put so much effort into climbing to his current position, but now that you're exposed to the public eye, he's become a target for so many people. Do you know all this?!"

There is no wall that is impenetrable.

Although the live broadcast room camera was completely banned last time, Xiao Yunting's photos and identity information still flowed into the dark web and are now being listed on the homepage of the X Forum at a high price.

Ye Lan even logged in and took a screenshot of the photo of the two of them and used it as a screensaver.

So he was not moved by the other party's passionate words.

She even looked at the old man with white hair and beard, raised the corner of her lips and said provocatively: "You can't protect him, but I can."

That's quite domineering.

However, no one at the scene believed it.

They were all disappointed with the girl, thinking that she was young and frivolous and unfit for such a big responsibility, ignorant and arrogant. The impression she had accumulated at the beginning suddenly plummeted.

But Ye Lan didn't want to please these old guys.

It was the first time in history that people were arguing about love affairs at such a conference and negotiation table. Even the leader in charge found it absurd and coughed twice to stop the topic.

"Alright, there's no point in saying more. Mr. Cui, calm down and don't let your anger get to you." The leader gestured for the old man next to him to sit down, then returned his gaze to the young woman. His gentle smile had vanished, and he spoke coldly, "Miss Ye, you should go back and make your preparations. I will provide you with the best team and weapons to assist you in your investigation and mission. I promise you, I will never abandon you after you've served your purpose, or harm such talented individuals who have served our country."

The so-called killing two birds with one stone is only possible when absolutely necessary.

Excluding Xiao Yunting, Ye Lan is actually the most suitable candidate for this mission.

Ye Lan believed that the other party was not lying. In fact, the fact that she could sit down to negotiate was based on trust. So, upon hearing this, she nodded slightly and said, "You all misunderstood before. The person I'm waiting for is not Xiao Yunting."

The leader was stunned. Before he could react, he heard hurried footsteps outside the door. Then the secretary came in under the escort of bodyguards and placed an invitation on the leader's desk.

"Sir, someone from the Xuanzong of the Ancient Martial Realm has arrived, saying it's a scheduled meeting, and we're already in line."

After being carefully guarded, it was delivered to the table. It was an apricot-colored invitation card with a simple and elegant design and a light green bamboo pattern printed on it.

Once upon a time, this invitation was scrambled for by top leaders from all over the world.

But when they met again, the leader was stunned for a long time before he said, "But hasn't Xuanzong chosen a new clan leader yet?"

Besides, the person mentioned in the invitation was the one he wanted to meet, the genius who died in the war and was a rare talent in the entire ancient martial arts world that was rarely seen in a thousand years.

I just didn’t expect that he would die before the appointment date came.

The secretary was also unclear about the matter, but said, "Xuanzong's men are already downstairs."
