“Uncle Liu, you’re out!”

He Jingxuan smiled and approached an elderly man who was walking out of the venue.

“Who are you?”

The old man seemed a bit puzzled, looking at the young woman in front of him, unsure of her identity.

“I’m He Jingxuan. When 1 was little, you visited my home. My father is He Maosheng…”

“Oh, He Maosheng’s daughter. You’ve grown up so much!”

“Uncle Liu, it seems like everyone coming out look either worried or confused. Is it that hard to obtain the right to agency?” He Jingxuan asked tentatively.

Her purpose in coming here was to follow Uncle Liu and get some inside information.

The old man shook his head and said, “I can’t really decide on this matter. You should go back, and when I have time, 1’11 talk to old He about it.”

He Jingxuan’s heart sank. She knew it was over; the other party wasn’t interested in involving their He family.

Since she didn’t want to be rude, she could only smile, “Uncle Liu, you must be tired from the meeting. I have booked a suite at the hotel across the street. Shall I take you there to rest?”

“No need. 1 have some matters to attend to at my company. I won’t stay here in Chang’an any longer. You go back!”

The old man firmly refused and walked away without any hesitation.

Back home, before He Jingxuan could say anything, the people from the family gathered around her.

He Maosheng glanced behind her and saw no one else following, so he quickly asked, “Where is Uncle Liu?”

“He said he had something to take care of and had to return to the company…”

“What about the right of agency?!” He Maosheng quickly asked.

He Jingxuan shook her head and said, “Uncle Liu didn’t tell me…”

Her words immediately caused an uproar among the family members.

“Jingjing, did you say something that might offend Uncle Liu?”

“Yeah, your dad and Uncle Liu were so close back then. How could he not tell us anything?!”

Helplessly, He Jingxuan could only keep explaining.

He Maosheng was also contemplating whether his daughter had said something inappropriate and upset Uncle Liu.

“Ring ring ring-!”

Just then, the phone in the house started ringing.

A younger relative hurriedly went to answer it, glanced at the displayed number, and said, “Looks like it’s a call from the hotel…” and picked it up.

After listening for just a couple of seconds, the young relative’s face filled with joy, and they quickly looked at He Maosheng and said, “Second Uncle, it’s Uncle Liu!!”

He Maosheng was overjoyed and hurriedly went to answer the call.

Everyone in the hall fell silent, their eyes fixed on the phone, waiting for news.

“Hahaha, no problem, no problem. We’re, like, super close. You can treat us like your own family even…”

Seeing He Maosheng’s continuous smile, everyone present was delighted.

Although they didn’t know the content of the conversation, it seemed like good news.

One minute later, the call ended.

“Second Uncle, what’s the situation?!” a middle-aged man quickly approached and asked.

He Maosheng couldn’t hide his joy and happily said, “Uncle Liu will come to our house later. Let’s quickly tidy up…”

“I knew it! Second Uncle and Uncle Liu have such a good relationship. How could they not care about our He family…”

Just as everyone was preparing to tidy up, the phone rang again.

He Maosheng quickly picked up the phone.

“Hello, is this the He Jingxuan residence?”

He Maosheng was momentarily stunned, replied with a yes, and then covered the microphone, looking at He Jingxuan, signaling her to take the call.

He Jingxuan didn’t dare to delay and quickly came over to answer the phone, wondering who could be calling.

Her phone was naturally not given much attention, and everyone in the hall started to take action, preparing to welcome Uncle Liu’s arrival.

After a while, the call ended, leaving He Jingxuan somewhat perplexed. But she still spoke up, “Everyone, please be quiet!”

“Jingjing, what’s wrong?!” He Maosheng, while directing others, quickly asked about the situation upon hearing her words.

He Jingxuan massaged her temples and said, “The person on the phone claimed to be the daughter of the Northern Summer Automobile Group, saying they have a cooperation proposal and wanted to visit our house today to discuss it…”

“The Northern Summer Automobile Group?”

Everyone was puzzled.

He Maosheng was also confused. “The Northern Summer Automobile Group is a trillion-dollar giant, occupying one-third of the automobile industry market in Great Xia. They want to cooperate with us?!”

“I find it strange too. We are a furniture factory, unrelated to the automotive industry. Perhaps it’s a scam call?!” He Jingxuan said, uncertain.

Unexpectedly, the phone rang again.

Nobody dared to ignore it this time. Under everyone’s gaze, He Jingxuan anxiously answered the call.

She activated the speakerphone function when she answered the call.

“Hello, is this the He Jingxuan residence?”

“It is. Who’s this?”

“Hello, I am Liu Sisi, the director of Grassland Dairy Group. My father is Liu

Zhenhai…”

Although they didn’t pay much attention to the dairy industry, they had heard of Liu Zhenhai’s name. He was the chairman of Grassland Dairy Group, and this Liu Sisi was the daughter of a billionaire conglomerate.

He Jingxuan glanced back at everyone, and each person’s eyes were filled with confusion and disbelief.

“Hello, hello. May I ask what this is about?”

“Oh, we have a business proposal and would like to collaborate with your company. When would be convenient for you to meet?”

“What kind of project is it?”

“It’s a multi-billion-dollar project that 1 can’t explain briefly. Let’s meet and discuss…”

He Jingxuan thought for a moment and said, “How about today afternoon at my house?”

“That works.”

The call ended, and a silence fell over the He family.

“Is it a scam call?”

“It seems so. Both calls were from daughters of big corporations. It’s too unbelievable…”

Before they could think much further, the phone rang again.

He Jingxuan picked it up.

“Hello, is this the He Jingxuan residence?”

“Who is this?”

“I’m Yao Anni, a director at Xia Wei Group…”

This time, everyone knew something was wrong.

“Tiezzi, go check with the telecom company. Go ask them whether our landline has been targeted by a scammer company?!”

“Old Chu, Old Chu, where are you? Answer me!”

After finishing the meeting, Colonel Chu hadn’t even had a moment to rest when he heard someone shouting outside the door.

He furrowed his brows and got up, walking towards the door to see who was so impudent to call him like that.

Stepping outside, he saw an old man in his sixties wearing a Mao suit walking quickly towards him, accompanied by several bodyguards.

“Senator Zhou, why are you here?!”

Colonel Chu was taken aback. Wasn’t this senator based in Xia Capital? How did he come to Chang’an?!

“Something has happened!!” Senator Zhou’s face was filled with urgency as he approached quickly and said, “Come with me to the command center…”

Seeing his urgency, Colonel Chu didn’t have time to think much and quickly followed him to the rooftop.

He expected to see a helicopter, but to his surprise, it was a maglev car—the prototype that Zhao Yu had sent earlier for promotion.

“Why did you bring this here?!”

“Don’t waste time, let’s go!”

The two of them quickly boarded the maglev car, and under the driver’s control, it swiftly ascended into the air, heading towards Xia Capital.

“The helicopter is too slow, it would take three hours to get here. This maglev car only takes one hour to cover a thousand kilometers…”

Sitting in the car, Senator Zhou’s urgency subsided, and he even explained.

Colonel Chu quickly asked, “Senator Zhou, why did you come to find me in such a hurry? What happened?”

Senator Zhou didn’t directly explain but instead glanced out the window before saying to the driver, “Xiao Wang, increase the altitude…”

Immediately, the maglev car began to ascend rapidly, heading towards the sky at a height of ten thousand meters.

Passing through several layers of clouds, the view outside suddenly cleared.

“Lookup there!”

At that moment, Senator Zhou pointed towards outer space.

Colonel Chu looked intently and saw hundreds, if not thousands, of space robots moving around far beyond the Earth’s atmosphere.

“What are they doing?!” Colonel Chu was astonished and quickly asked.

Senator Zhou’s face turned grave as he said, “According to the analysis of the expert team, they might be installing some kind of weapon…”

“What you’re seeing is only a part of it. The entire outer layer of the Earth is surrounded by these robots, numbering over a hundred thousand…”

“What?!” Colonel Chu was shocked. “What do they want to do?!”

“I don’t know. The experts speculate that the aliens might want to destroy the Earth…”

Again?

Colonel Chu was dumbfounded. Why did the experts always guess that aliens wanted to destroy the Earth?!

But at this moment, it was true that without their knowledge or notification, the aliens were doing something unknown, and it seemed highly threatening.

“Old Chu, you’re in charge of the alien affairs.. Quickly contact them and find out what’s going on!!!”
