The last terrorist attack was more like a display. The main purpose was to announce to the world: "Look, we have such outstanding talents in the Shadow Alliance!"

This mini-scale operation successfully brought the character of the Death Knight into the public eye, and the impact was even greater than Lin Ange expected.

The dangers and potential of Yuying's villain alliance were widely reported in the news, and the reputation of the Shadow Alliance began to gradually approach that of Yuying himself.

What is certain is that the recent two villain performances starring Movie Girl and Death Knight respectively have caused quite a stir. As more and more powerful villains join, the Shadow Alliance may become a force in the Peninsula Federation. A force that cannot be underestimated.

Everything is developing smoothly according to plan.

"But...why exactly is that?"

Lin Ange has been studying the video of the last battle between Xingyuan and the Death Knight.

Xingyuan, who was previously comparable in strength to the Death Knight, suddenly burst out with astonishing power, as if he instantly transformed into a tiger and smashed the Death Knight to pieces.

Although the death knight himself seemed quite satisfied with the battle and returned to the ring to rest contentedly, Lin Ange didn't understand why Xingyuan suddenly became so powerful.

According to his speculation, the most likely reason was that the death knight's exaggerated laughter angered Xingyuan. After all, even he himself could not stand the harsh laughter sometimes, and the ridicule attribute was simply maxed out.

She couldn't be angry because she heard that Yuying wouldn't show up, right? This should be a good thing for her.

But in any case, this is not harmful to Lin Ange. After all, the stronger Xingyuan becomes, the safer the world will be.

However, he still couldn't help but mutter: "Is this speed... too fast?"

Is she still the slow-growing Xingyuan in the original work?

The time now is almost at the early stage of the second part of the original work, but Xingyuan is already as powerful as in the second half of the original work. It is foreseeable that she will be able to easily crush the villains and monsters that appear for a long time. .

"Um……"

Lin Ange held his chin, lost in thought.

If Xingyuan continues to grow at this rate, maybe he needs to consider slowing down a little. Is it time to take another break?

Just as he was thinking, a knock on the door brought him back to reality, and Fang Xinxin walked in lightly.

"Ange, are you studying Xingyuan again?" She glanced at Lin Ange's computer screen and saw the Xingyuan Fans Club's webpage, so she asked.

She may think that Lin Ange is tinkering with this website again, but this is actually a misunderstanding. He has already completed the daily management of the fan club, and now he is purely formulating plans for the future development of the film alliance.

Lin Ange was about to explain, but Fang Xinxin took the lead and handed him the phone.

"Here, your phone."

Telephone?

Lin Ange took the phone in confusion and saw that the name on the caller ID was Han Xueli.

Only then did he remember that he had left his cell phone in the living room. After thanking Fang Xinxin, he answered the call.

"Hello? What's wrong? What happened?"

On the other end of the phone, Han Xueli's voice was slightly cold: "Let me ask, have you forgotten that today is the day we meet regularly?"

"……What?"

Lin Ange was stunned for a moment. Has the agreed time arrived so soon?

He turned to look at the calendar and found that it had indeed been two weeks since the last meeting.

"Oh! Of course I remember, I'm getting ready." He explained with some embarrassment.

"...I don't think so, forget it, anyway, the location is the one I told you last time. Come over here, okay?"

"Ok, no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ange stood up and prepared to leave.

He hasn't seen Han Xueli for a long time.

...Well, it doesn’t seem like it was a long time ago, but no matter what, the agreement must be kept.

After a while, Lin Ange came to the president's office on the top floor of Yaoyang Group's Seoul branch.

"I mean, why do the offices in Sands City and Seoul look exactly the same?" He looked around and said with some surprise.

Han Xueli smiled softly after hearing this, "Of course, the familiar environment will make me feel comfortable."

At the same time, she stood up from her desk and walked gracefully to sit opposite Lin Ange.

Lin Ange noticed that the furniture placement, bookshelf layout, and even every detail of the decorations were exactly the same as those in the Sands City office. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Han Xueli.

"I will stay here for a long time, so I hope it will suit my preferences as much as possible." Han Xueli continued.

"Why?"

"Oh, why? Of course it's because all the companies I want to annex...I mean, the acquired companies are gathered here." Han Xueli showed a cruel smile on her face, but soon returned to a soft expression, as if she had never Never had that thought.

"Of course, this is thanks to your help. Thanks to the information you provided, the acquisition became much easier." She added.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, there is another one here." When talking about this topic, Lin Ange seemed to suddenly remember something, took out a USB flash drive from his pocket and handed it to Han Xueli. "Here are the 'information' of other companies."

"Oh... are there any other companies? Thank you." Han Xueli took the USB flash drive with a slight surprise.

Lin Ange took the opportunity to emphasize again: "This is my last help. I'll leave the rest to you, okay?"

Han Xueli nodded to express her understanding, "It doesn't matter, you have given me enough, but how did you get this? My professional investigation team has not been able to dig out so much useful information."

Seeing Han Xueli's intention to pry for information, Lin Ange smiled slightly and replied in a joking tone: "I am not omnipotent, I can only do this. The internal networks of the Hero Association and the government use very strict encryption. I just can’t penetrate it.”

To be precise, Zhao Lingwei can't do it yet.

Han Xueli naturally noticed that Lin Ange was changing the subject, but she did not continue to delve deeper. She just held her chin and stared at Lin Ange.

Finally, she lightly opened her red lips and asked with a smile: "Mr. Yuying, can I visit your home?"

"No, this won't work." Lin Ange naturally rejected her without hesitation.

She didn't seem to be discouraged and continued to ask: "Excuse me, can I know your real name? Every time I call you Mr. Yuying, I always feel a little alienated."

Lin Ange shook his head again: "Of course this is not possible."

She blinked and seemed a little confused: "Then can you take off the mask? I'm not used to it."

Lin Ange was silent for a while and did not answer.

He understood that Han Xueli had been trying to reveal his true identity, so he picked up the tea cup and blew the hot air gently to express his rejection.

Han Xueli looked at his actions and smiled softly: "Mr. Yuying, do you not believe me?"

"Of course I do."

"Then why do you hide your identity so tightly and don't tell me?" Her eyes flashed with persistence.

Lin Ange didn't answer immediately. He was thinking about how to respond.

Revealing his identity to Han Xueli was a bit too risky. After all, the contact between them was not that much. He was not sure what she thought of him. It was best to remain cautious and tell her after making sure there was no risk.

However, there is also a slight possibility that she has already found out some information, and she is just testing it now.

While Lin Ange was deep in thought, Han Xueli suddenly stood up.

She walked up to Lin Ange, put her hands on the table, and leaned close to him.

Her face was close at hand, and her long blue hair fell gently, intersecting with her eyes.

She looked directly into Lin Ange's eyes and whispered: "Do you think...I will betray you? I am also a grateful person. From the moment we established a cooperative relationship, I have made up my mind to work with you. Moving forward side by side, I just hope we can keep going.”

After saying that, she raised her head, gently held her chin with her hand, and continued: "Do you know how much I care about you?"

Lin Ange looked at her serious expression, took a deep breath, and replied: "...Uh, how much do you care?"

She smiled slightly, with a hint of mischief flashing in her eyes: "I can give you 5% of my company's shares."

...so many?

Lin Ange was stunned when he heard this. This number was indeed beyond his expectation.

"...Well, if you don't know what this means, that's okay. No matter what, I won't betray you, so I hope you can trust me more. To be honest, I'm a little...sad."

She whispered the last words, turned around, poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

Lin Ange looked at her back and couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart.

He understood her intentions and felt her sincerity, but he still remained vigilant and cautious.

But think about it carefully, even in the original work, Han Xueli always takes care of all those who trust and follow her, even after she achieves her goal.

While he was thinking, Han Xueli had returned to normal and asked again in her usual bright tone: "So, what are your plans next? That death knight is very powerful."

"Next?"

Lin Ange was stunned for a moment, then leaned back on the chair and fell into a brief silence.

He originally planned to carry out another terrorist attack to fully demonstrate the strength of the Shadow Alliance, but Xingyuan's current state made him wonder whether this was still necessary.

Star Source is already powerful enough, and the appearance of the Death Knight has brought enough fame to the Shadow Alliance. What's the point of showing off its strength again?

Perhaps, he could slow down and wait for "that incident" to happen.

"Well, I think I might take a break this year," he finally replied.

"What? So long?" Han Xueli looked a little surprised.

Lin Ange smiled softly and did not explain. It was already autumn, so this would not be a long rest.

...Of course, the Mango group may go crazy because of this. If he is really bored by then, he may consider uploading some videos.

After a few more exchanges, Lin Ange made one last request to Han Xueli: "...from now on, please keep in close contact with Xingyuan."

A discord between the two would cause big problems. Only if they were good friends could he learn about Xingyuan's latest developments at the first time.

"We are already friends, right?" Han Xueli did not directly respond to his request, but said, "I just hope we can meet often."

"...Well, I understand." Lin Ange nodded in agreement.

He stood up and prepared to leave.

But before leaving, he turned his back to Han Xueli and said the last words: "Also, from now on...call me An Ge."

"What?" Han Xueli was a little confused.

"My name is Ange. If you want to call me by my name, you can call me that." Lin Ange explained.

"OK."

Han Xueli was silent for a moment, seemed to understand what he meant, and responded with a smile.

...Well, there should be no problem at this level. After all, there is no information about "Lin Ange" in this world.

I guess so.

After Lin Ange left, Han Xueli sat alone in her seat with a smile on her face, then suddenly came to her senses and straightened her back.

Although she had taken the first step successfully, it was not the time to be happy yet. She still had things to do. First, she had to look at the USB flash drive that Lin Ange left for her and plan how to use the information in it.

Han Xueli suppressed her smile and concentrated on her work.

After sorting it out roughly, she remembered Lin Ange's previous instructions to establish a closer connection with Li Xingran.

She thought for a moment, then smiled and took her phone out of her bag.

Although there were some "misunderstandings" between her and Li Xingran because of the last incident, and they had no contact for a while, Han Xueli believed that she should be more mature and tolerant and take the lead in breaking the deadlock.

So far, Li Xingran definitely didn't know Lin Ange's real name, but Han Xueli knew the secret, and Lin Ange even told her personally.

With an inexplicable sense of relaxation and superiority, Han Xueli dialed Li Xingran's phone, with a smile on her face.

"Hi, Xingran, how are you doing?"
