It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 405 [054] The Veil Under the Flower Language

As a representative of the Nean Society, George Kennedy wanted to create a relaxed atmosphere in the "Steel Flower Language" art exhibition hall as much as possible.

Generally speaking, eating together could dispel some of the doubts of the two negotiating parties, but the few flaws of the Steel Armor Breathing Method included food poisoning. Even if it only caused Qin Jiandan to have diarrhea, it would be equivalent to reducing the Night Dragon Society's highest combat power.

Before the Night Dragon Society participated in the negotiations, it had already made it clear that no matter whether the negotiations could be successful or not, the Night Dragon Society would not attend any banquets.

Therefore, the negotiation time was chosen between 13:17 and :, perfectly missing lunch and dinner.

"Young Master Qin is really too wary..." George led Qin Jiandan in the metal mural corridor. He finished the red wine and handed the empty glass to a younger brother.

"Hahaha, but it's understandable. Orientals have always had the allusion of the 'Hongmen Banquet'. I was holding a goblet in my hand just now. Wouldn't people suspect that I was going to smash the cup as a signal?"

George and Qin Jiandan were arm in arm, calling each other brothers, and seemed extremely affectionate. He introduced the artworks on the wall like they were his own treasures. Although his introductions might not be correct, there was never a dull moment.

After a short period of contact, Qin Jiandan found that George Kennedy's advantage was that he could speak to people in a way that suited them, and he was comparable to Zhu Shengzhi in building relationships and gaining favors.

Hmm...it seems that the Nian Society also has its own Zhu Laoer. But George is much more handsome than Zhu Laoer, while Zhu Shengzhi is more vulgar and cowardly in comparison.

Knowing that Qin Jiandan was the disciple of "Killing God Qin Qi", the 81st champion of the Superman Arena, and that his hands were stained with the blood of members of the Nian Society, George still dared to walk beside Qin Jiandan without any precautions.

In terms of courage alone, Zhu Shengzhi is not as good as George.

Of course, George was not as shrewd as Zhu Shengzhi. He thought that “President Alexander supported the peace talks” and “the Night Dragon Society was also suffering from water pollution”, so the peace talks would definitely succeed and he would not be in any danger.

Little did George know that Ringstone City was full of dangers and changes were happening rapidly. If anything unexpected happened, George's actions would make him a hostage in the first place.

Zhu Shengzhi's intelligence network showed that George did not have any special abilities. Qin Jiandan seemed to get along well with George, but in fact, he had already prepared to hold him hostage.

Wandering around one small exhibition hall after another and occasionally resting in the lounge, Qin Jiandan and George began to discuss their intentions.

On the Yelong Club side, Fengjian was responsible for writing the memorandum. She held the recorder in both hands and followed Qin Jiandan in a hurry.

George thought he had a good memory, so he did not arrange a memorandum clerk for the Nian Society. He glanced at Fengjian from the corner of his eye from time to time and thought it was a stupid idea for Qin Jiandan to bring the loli staff officer to the meeting.

The guards of the Night Dragon Society spread out evenly, watching the venue for any suspicious movements with vigilant eyes. The Nian Society had the advantage of being at home, so they only needed to keep an eye on the Night Dragon Society.

In order to avoid causing disputes, the members of the Nian Society protected George from a distance, while Qin Jiandan instructed the guards to ensure the safety of Fengjian and others.

As George was bypassing a pillar, he took the opportunity to wink at his deputy team leader Glenn Iron Fist and the rhino bodyguard Hogg.

Did you see that silver-haired girl? Once I'm held hostage by Qin Jiandan, you can hold her hostage in exchange for me!
Although from the perspective of closeness, it is more appropriate to hold Sheriff Mu Yue hostage to exchange for hostages. However, the Sheriff is here as a representative of the three major families to witness the negotiations. If the Ni An Society holds her hostage, it will be difficult to explain to the Han family.

"Fufufu~ There are sushi rolls in the delivered snacks. Did they prepare them specially because they knew I was coming?"

Seeing Ding Jingshuang taking food from the waiter, Xiao Xia couldn't help but follow suit. She ate sushi rolls, fruit skewers, and crispy mini potatoes baked with the skin on.

The people in the art exhibition hall are probably distributed like this:

George and Qin Jiandan were viewing the murals at the edge of the hall and talking. On the surface, the atmosphere was harmonious.

The guards from the two guilds stood separately, keeping an eye on each other, and maintained a high state of alert to prevent any unexpected situations.

The representatives of the three major families seemed more relaxed. They were enjoying their meals on the other side of the hall while observing the progress of the peace talks.

Qin Jiandan had instructed Xiao Xia in advance not to get involved in the negotiations, and that the focus should be on moving around freely and observing which corners in the exhibition hall could only be reached by using the "Phantom Substitute Technique" in case of emergency.

As a result, Xiao Xia was too free. She saw that the representatives of the three major families (except Sheriff Mu Yue) took food and drinks without any scruples, and thought it was unnecessary for Ye Long to bring his own food.

"How could the Ni'an Society be so bold as to poison? What if they poisoned the witnesses of the three major families? Young Master and Fengjian are too cautious!" After mumbling to herself, Xiao Xia greeted Ding Jingshuang in a familiar manner. Ding Jingshuang didn't care that Xiao Xia had kidnapped her daughter in the "rumor-mongering incident". She smiled and said to Xiao Xia, "I've heard of you for a long time."

The guards of the Nian Society were patrolling nearby and were very dissatisfied with Xiao Xia's reckless behavior. They discussed quietly:

"Isn't that unworthy leader of the Falling Cherry Group the so-called 'Legendary Concubine Naichao Wang'? If it weren't for the fact that she and Qin Jiandan's combined water purification speed was too fast, we might not have fallen to the point where we needed to negotiate!"

When Xiao Xia heard these rumors, she was unhappy, but she also thought that she had made a great contribution to the "East-West City Water Source Protection Convention" which was about to be signed.

"Humph, your olive team leader George has also been trained by the senior brother and is known as the 'Legendary Local Olive King'!"

The scene was like a relatively quiet buffet party, with waiters carefully providing food and beverage services to everyone present, trying their best to avoid disrupting any conversation.

The representative of the Luo family, 28-year-old Maximilien Roxon, was a boastful person, commenting on all the works of art in his sight, as if he knew more about them than the creators themselves. His guards also took the opportunity to echo him, praising and flattering his every word.

Ding Jingshuang was very considerate in her dealings with others. When Maximilien showed off his "artistic taste", she smiled and nodded, not revealing her inner contempt at all.

As the representative of the Han family, Sheriff Mu Yue was somewhat lonely. She pretended to appreciate the murals, listened attentively to every detail of the conversation, and thought about how to use this information.

Ding Jingshuang asked the Ding family guards to keep their distance from her. She looked at Sheriff Mu Yue with admiration. Mu Yue was wearing a white shirt and police trousers, and no police hat on his head, but he still looked very capable.

Ding Jingshuang walked towards Mu Yue alone, her steps revealing a calm and confident look:

"Captain Mu Yue, nice to meet you. Ding Ling has received a lot of care from you, but unfortunately I have never found a chance to repay you."

"Nothing." Mu Yue responded politely, "I just accepted a few interviews with Ding Ling at the beginning."

Ding Jingshuang smiled and changed the subject: "I heard that Young Master Qin dotes on you so much that he even pulls a rickshaw for you?"

Mu Yue was touched and couldn't help but frown and complain: "Except for President Qin Qi who is a 100-year-old virgin, the other men in the Night Dragon Society are all fallen women."

Ding Jingshuang covered her mouth elegantly, but then she let out a not-so-elegant laugh:
"It is common for women who marry outside the city to be unaccustomed to the marriage customs of the outside city. You may be very angry about the fact that Young Master Qin has multiple concubines, Sheriff. I even think you are deliberately nurturing your anger."

Mu Yue was surprised. This was the first time she met Ding Jingshuang, but her secrets that even Walei didn't know were exposed.

After learning that her mother died at the hands of the company, Mu Yue finally understood why her father and uncle did not support her investigation into the "police car explosion case". After all, the Han family and the police department are the company's watchdogs and cannot be a solid support against the company.

In the following brutal war, Mu Yue wanted to overcome all her weaknesses, at least not to be frightened and screamed by mutant rats again. Cultivating anger is a twisted but useful route.

Mu Yue also plans to squeeze all her abilities to the limit - Moonlight Justice. Although it is an S-level ability that even the God of Death Qin Qi cannot underestimate, the prerequisite for its release is "the need to protect family members who are in danger."

In order to fulfill the mental oath of this supernatural power, Mu Yue needs one of his father, uncle, housekeeper Nestor, Vale, Grandma Qianxing, and Qin Jiandan to be present, and Mu Yue must psychologically believe that "they are in danger."

In order to release her superpowers and regard unrelated people as "family", Mu Yue needs to go through a long period of psychological preparation, and it may not be successful. Because Linlin is reluctant to call Mu Yue "sister-in-law", Mu Yue is still unsure whether she can release Moonlight Justice to protect Linlin.

This is why Mu Yue allowed Wang You to "borrow" Qin Jiandan and even "listen to the bed" downstairs. Once she accepted the concept of "three wives and four concubines" in the outer city, Mu Yue could more easily regard "Qin Jiandan's concubine" as a member of the family.

In addition, Mu Yue has always had a vague feeling that the power of "Moonlight Justice" will increase by about 1% to 10% as the number of family members present increases. Even if it is calculated at the lowest 1%, if there are 100 family members present, the power of her ability will become twice as strong as before!
One thought makes the world wide.

In order to ensure that the spiritual vow of "Moonlight Justice" is fulfilled in the critical moment, to obtain a tenfold or a hundredfold increase in power, and to be able to overthrow the dictatorial company, Mu Yue would do anything even if all the women in Huanshi City became Qin Jiandan's concubines, even if "Moonlight Justice" turned into "Green Light Justice"!

Seeing that Mu Yue had fallen into a slightly gloomy silence, Ding Jingshuang regretted the topic she had chosen. She patted Mu Yue's elbow and comforted her:
"Men in the inner city are not necessarily honest. My husband had a secret lover when he was alive. Although there is no legal monogamy in the outer city, there is still a big difference between wives and concubines."

Mu Yue was still thinking about the "rapid family growth" plan. She raised her head slightly and said listlessly, "I think they are all the same."

"How can they be the same!" Ding Jingshuang laughed, "A wife is to be pampered, and a concubine is to be surpassed. Master Qin should also be practicing this saying, right?"
