Tang Xueluan changed into the formal attire she would wear for the upcoming meeting, nodded slightly at her reflection in the full-length mirror, and after a final glance at the documents on the table, turned and walked briskly out of her bedroom. She looked up at the female bodyguard standing at the door and said:

"Xiaoxu, prepare to meet the guests."

However, Xiaoxu didn't immediately use her ability, but quietly whispered:

"Uncle and Aunt are in the living room."

Tang Xueluan was slightly surprised and opened her mouth slightly, taking a few seconds to understand what she had just said.

"Wait here." Tang Xueluan whispered to the bodyguard, suppressing her nervousness, then raised her leg and walked cautiously and slowly towards the living room.

Why would her parents suddenly come without warning? Was it to intercept her plan in advance? Or was the family planning to give her some new bargaining chips, and they came to tell her about it?

Tang Xueluan walked into the living room with trepidation.

Her mother, Tang Jinghong, was sitting at the coffee table chatting and laughing with her husband, while her gentle and refined father, Shu Yunpeng, was sitting on the side, flipping through a popular science book that Tang Xueluan had casually placed on the table.

Seeing her come in, Tang Jinghong looked over first, then said with a smile:

"I heard that Ma En wants to meet with you."

Tang Xueluan walked to the sofa on her mother's left side somewhat restrained:

"Yes, he conveyed his desire to meet through Shadow, and as far as I know, he doesn't seem to have approached the Reformist faction yet, and no other factions or groups within the Federation are looking for him either. This means that this meeting is likely to be fruitful."

Tang Jinghong didn't continue her words, but showed a concerned expression:

"How is your company doing?"

Tang Xueluan looked at her mother and replied:

"Everything is going smoothly. If there are no accidents, I might get promoted this year and directly enter the most important management level. But now none of this is important anymore. No matter what, the East Federation Company can't compare with the new department of the Federation.

"I'm already preparing to transfer to the diplomatic department."

If Shu Yun hadn't died, she would never have considered leaving the company. But their family only had these two daughters, and her father, as a member of the Grand Assembly with a seat, his children seemed to be destined to embark on a political path.

Originally, this path was to be taken by Shu Yun, who liked and was better at this kind of thing than herself. When she had her older sister, Tang Xueluan could do what she wanted without any burden or pressure, without considering the future of the family.

But now the situation is different. Her family must have descendants in politics. In a sense, this is not entirely to pursue interests and power. She is doing this just to ensure that her parents don't suddenly die someday in their later years, and she is not inexplicably silenced.

Although her grandfather is still the one who speaks for the Shu family, and the members within the family will take care of each other, the situation decades later may not be like it is now. Tang Xueluan believes that the speed of change in this era will exceed most people's imagination.

This is another reason why she didn't enter politics. Originally, Tang Xueluan was thinking of developing in two fields at the same time with her sister, so that no matter which side had a problem, there would be a backup plan. But now her family only has her as a card.

No matter how much she dislikes it, the Federation is still the best choice for her.

After all, she has a good father.

Tang Jinghong nodded and said:

"When you said you wanted to go out and venture out, your father and I were actually not very relieved. We originally thought you were just going to hit a wall.

"But later your achievements completely exceeded our expectations. Your father and I are very satisfied with your situation. We originally thought it would be good for you to stay in the company like this, but since you are willing to come back, it is naturally better.

"Your grandfather also heard about this and chatted with us about you these days."

These words made Tang Xueluan's heart jump to her throat:

"What did grandfather say?"

Tang Jinghong replied:

"He thinks that you can come up with such an idea is very encouraging, and I also told him specifically that you were very sure that Ma En was a talent worth recruiting before his victory. He also praised you for having vision."

Her father, Shu Yunpeng, who had been silent all the time, also spoke:

"Dad also watched the recording of that battle. He can understand the level of that Ma En better than your mother and I, and this young man does have a lot of talent in supernatural abilities. If he is really as suitable for recruitment as you said...

"Then you really picked up a treasure this time."

Hearing this, Tang Xueluan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Since her grandfather said so, then her parents would definitely support her decision, so that she might be able to get enough bargaining chips before the negotiation.

As a family descendant, her power is actually limited, so she originally planned to negotiate with Ma En today at a reasonable price in her heart, regardless of the family's situation, and then slowly negotiate with the family elders to get the price she promised.

But Tang Jinghong immediately continued:

"But you have to know that there is a reason why almost no one in the entire Federation wants to recruit him. They are not blind either. They can see Ma En's potential as an ability user, but he also has very troublesome aspects."

After getting the news that her grandfather supported her, Tang Xueluan spoke with more confidence:

"Because he is a member of the Salvation Alliance?"

Tang Jinghong nodded:

"That's right, and he is a follower of Shenxiao. In fact, many people are also afraid of his identity. He is a madman who is willing to fight us with Shenxiao and the Salvation Alliance. Do you think that if Shenxiao comes out again in the future, will he return to her command?"

Tang Xueluan nodded:

"I think he definitely will, so we have to tie him to our ship before that."

Her father said:

"At least not so naive, is that all you think of him?"

Tang Xueluan shook her head slightly:

"No, in fact, in my opinion, this is not entirely a bad thing. We can't be sure what the situation will be after Shenxiao comes out. I think in many cases, Ma En may become a bridge for us to communicate with her.

"I think Shenxiao will bring many new opportunities after rejoining the Federation."

Shu Yunpeng nodded in satisfaction:

"That's right, Ma En's identity is a burden and a burden, but correspondingly, there are also opportunities in these troubles. Ma En's value does not only come from his own potential and ability. To be honest, recruiting these strongest Tier IV ability users is like buying a lottery ticket.

"Even if he is one of the most talented Tier IV ability users, the possibility of being promoted to a Tier V ability user cannot exceed 10%.

"But with the identity of a member of the Salvation Alliance, it is different. He can be regarded as one of the strongest under Shenxiao, so he must also be one of the ones with the best relationship with her. If you can make him sincerely join our Shu family, then it is indeed a sure profit.

"But don't think things are so simple. The word 'sincere' is the key, and this is also the difficult point. They are unwilling to contact Ma En because they have no confidence in changing the mind of a senior member of the Salvation Alliance.

"Are you confident that you can make Ma En our person?"

Tang Xueluan nodded:

"Yes."

Shu Yunpeng nodded:

"Then go ahead and do it, grandfather and I will support you."

She showed a happy smile:

"Thank you, Dad."

Tang Jinghong then asked:

"Then how do you plan to recruit him?"

Tang Xueluan said:

"I plan to start from the Salvation Alliance and pure interests, and recently the Federation is just about to establish a supernatural professional consultant department that can compete with the Investigation Department. I plan to use this as an entry point to make demands on him, but mainly it depends on what he specifically wants.

"These ability users often have something they want, and Ma En, a former member of the Salvation Alliance, probably wants something different from others. Moreover, he took the initiative to find me through Shadow this time, he should have figured out what he wants.

"We may have to meet a few more times to be sure."

Shu Yunpeng nodded:

"Then your mother and I won't ask any more questions, just do it according to your own ideas."

Tang Jinghong also said:

"If you encounter any problems that you can't solve yourself, just come to me and your father. You are just entering the federal system now, so it will definitely not go so smoothly."

Her father also echoed:

"Don't care what other people in the family think of you. I know you want them to recognize your ability as soon as possible, but don't try to be brave when you encounter something. Your mother and I believe in your ability, so don't rush to achieve any results within the Federation.

"We are not so old that we need you to support us.

"You are our daughter, your happiness and living happily is the most important thing to us."

Tang Xueluan nodded warmly:

"Yes, I won't be reckless."

In fact, besides being moved, she also felt a little sadness. Her parents rarely said such things to them before, on the one hand because they felt that their children should be allowed to struggle and roll around, and their conditions were not as good as they are now when they were young.

On the other hand, it is also because such words are actually useless. The core politicians of the Federation are inherently risky, and whether they can live safely to old age largely depends on luck, because they often do not directly offend characters who can retaliate against them.

However, the abnormal world is not something that can be guaranteed by being careful. Many ability users who seem unable to cause any threat, and in theory would not directly find politicians to retaliate, but in the abnormal world, you will always encounter all kinds of accidents.

You can never guess which ability user has the ability to kill you at your doorstep.

However, in fact, it is also difficult for politicians like her to encounter danger normally, and her sister Shu Yun is actually not a normal politician. Her ability and desire to cause trouble far exceed other politicians, and she always does stupid things that violate interests and only satisfy her own selfish desires.

Moreover, even Shu Yun's death was beyond their expectations. Although she caused a lot of trouble, she was far from really provoking the kind of disaster that would lead to death, you must know that she had the most expensive conventional security measures below Tier V on her body.

Her death can actually be said to be a relatively unlucky situation.

So normally speaking, her parents don't need to worry about her safety so much. After all, she is the kind of politician with a background, and she can get security measures that are higher than her status, and she is actually the least likely to have an accident.

But it seems that her sister's death has completely changed their thinking. Even if they all know how low the probability of accidental death of politicians is, and they also know that she is not like her sister who would arrogantly insist in the face of danger, they are still afraid that their daughter will have another accident, so they changed their attitude and repeatedly urged her.

After saying goodbye to her parents, Tang Xueluan walked out of the living room, then looked up at the bodyguard standing like a wooden stake:

"Let's go, Xiaoxu."

She nodded, and the surrounding environment instantly became a little darker.

"Boss, uncle and aunt..." Xiaoxu asked curiously.

Tang Xueluan replied:

"They affirmed me in this matter. Although they didn't say it directly, I think Ma En's victory can indeed show value, allowing my parents and grandfather to temporarily abandon his sensitive identity and highly support my idea."

If they were not so sure about this matter, although they would still not stop it, and even euphemistically express a certain degree of agreement, they would not personally come here to express their support so strongly, let alone provide her with support from the family.

This is the most important meaning of their arrival. Now she has more bargaining chips for negotiating with Ma En.

However, although her parents expressed strong support for her idea this time, they are still not so sure about her idea. After all, it is still very difficult to truly recruit Ma En to achieve the effect she just said.

The problem is not whether Ma En can do it, but whether they can let Ma En do it.

In fact, they are so supportive not only because this idea is indeed feasible, but also not out of trust in her ability, because all in all, it is still a bit risky, after all, Ma En is involved in the most troublesome figure in the Federation, Shenxiao.

Shenxiao's comeback represents countless opportunities, but what her parents didn't say directly is that it also represents countless troubles. Using Ma En, a former member of the Salvation Alliance, to find opportunities is a high-risk, high-reward thing, because they are facing not only Shenxiao, but also the intricate political environment within the entire Federation.

So in fact, the family and family are really willing to support, in addition to thinking that the matter itself is feasible, it is more because she proposed it, it has nothing to do with vision and ability, just because she is grandfather's granddaughter and father's daughter.

These two identities are enough. Since she is willing to return to the Federation to do something, then as long as she doesn't really do something stupid that seeks death, then the family will definitely not really try to stop her, and for decisions like this that are relatively valuable and likely to succeed, the family elders will also provide her with enough resources.

She has many good elders.
