The White Diamond Restaurant in the Crescent City Lakeside Business District and the surrounding area have been placed under martial law by security forces because an extremely distinguished guest has arrived.

The VIP banquet hall on the top floor has a gorgeous crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, the lighting is soft and bright, and there are gorgeous murals and exquisite reliefs on the walls, making people feel as if they are in a palace of art.

The waiters were dressed in neat suits and neatly tied ties. They held silver trays and brought a variety of delicious dishes into the banquet hall. Their every move was full of elegance.

A large rectangular dining table was placed in the center of the restaurant, and the guests were already seated.

The person sitting in the main seat is undoubtedly the court envoy Luo. She has taken off the black coat she was wearing, and the white shirt clearly highlights her proud curves.

But at this moment no one cared about the woman's graceful body, everyone's attention was on her neckline.

Three badges were worn there.

The double helix symbolizes a joint venture.

A mechanical soldier that symbolizes the Iron Blood Union.

The winged white dragon that symbolizes the Black Domain Group.

This special envoy to court was wearing three badges at the same time!

This only means one thing, the headquarters of the three giant companies have given Luo the highest permission, and she will have absolute power over life and death in Crescent City!

Opposite Luo sat Zhao Yiming, and Amir and other important officials took the next seats according to their status. Most people did not dare to look directly at the special envoy wearing the three-party badge, and could only glance at her cautiously.

The court had notified everyone before sending someone to Xinyue City. Everyone knew that it was Luo who was coming, so they naturally tried to investigate her in advance through various connections to facilitate their interactions later.

It is reported that Luo is efficient and effective at work, but gentle and easy-going in character, and is deeply trusted by his colleagues in court.

She doesn't have many hobbies. She doesn't like luxury cars, jewelry, or famous watches, and she has no interest in art or fine objects. She only likes food.

It is not uncommon to have a love for gourmet food, but in Luo's case, her love for gourmet food is so special that it is difficult for everyone to understand.

At this time, the waiters were placing various delicacies on the table, including French foie gras spread with golden caviar, which exuded an extremely tempting aroma.

The sushi is cut by professional chefs and neatly placed on the plate. The fresh salmon meat is bright in color, and paired with pickled ginger slices and high-quality glutinous rice, it makes people's appetite just by looking at it.

There are also black truffle steaks made from premium Wagyu beef, precious seafood flown directly from coastal cities, chocolate mousse cake sprinkled with edible gold foil, and so on, which are extremely luxurious.

There were only about twenty guests present, but the table was filled with various delicious foods. If you count carefully, you will find that there are a full hundred dishes.

Can more than 20 people eat 100 dishes? Of course not.

Besides, this is not enough food for more than 20 people.

This belongs to Luo alone.

Everyone had heard about this before. Luo was very efficient at work, but his lifestyle was not clean and could even be described as extravagant, especially when it came to his three meals a day.

Whether she was eating in the company cafeteria or being treated to a banquet, she had a habit of having a hundred dishes for every meal.

These one hundred dishes were not the kind that could be finished in one or two bites in small plates. When cooking for her, no matter chicken, duck, fish or meat, they had to be served in large plates of luxurious specifications.

Some people may ask, how can we finish this?

The answer is, of course it can’t be finished. Not to mention humans, even pigs can’t eat a hundred large dishes.

Therefore, Luo's eating habits are different from others.

At this time, two waiters worked together to place a plate as big as half a person in front of Luo, and respectfully opened the lid. Inside was a freshly roasted whole lamb.

Luo picked up the chopsticks and moved them slowly over the roasted whole lamb, as if looking for a place to place the chopsticks.

Soon, the chopsticks landed, and she picked up a piece of crispy skin from the lamb, about the size of a thumb, and put it into her mouth to taste.

After finishing the crispy skin, she nodded to the waiter, who removed the roasted whole lamb and replaced it with the next dish.

This is a plate of Emerald Shrimp and Pineapple Fried Rice. The shrimps were just caught this morning from the seaside thousands of kilometers away, and the pineapples were freshly picked from the tropical southern region. It is fried with high-quality rice and various condiments to make a whole plate. The portion is enough for at least five people to eat.

Luo admired the color of the food in front of him, then raised his chopsticks, picked up a corn kernel stuck with rice, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, then signaled to the waiter to change the dish.

The guests present looked at each other in bewilderment, and just watched Luo "eat" portion after portion, unable to speak.

That’s right, this is Luo’s eating habit.

She must have a hundred dishes for every meal, and she would only take a small bite of each dish and ask someone to replace it after tasting it.

This extravagant way of eating made even the most greedy dignitaries present pale in comparison.

If only that was it.

There were so many dishes, and each portion was only eaten in a small bite. It could have been shared by everyone, or had someone take some away.

Sorry, no.

Luo never shares delicious food with others, what belongs to hers is only hers.

If you want to eat, you can order it yourself.

Luo not only doesn't share with others, she also has a habit that can be said to be outrageous.

As time went by, Luo tasted all the hundred dishes one bite at a time.

As for the next scene, even though everyone was mentally prepared, they still felt embarrassed when they actually saw it.

After Luo finished the last bite, he put the chopsticks neatly back on the table, smiled and leaned back in his chair, as if preparing to enjoy a show.

The restaurant door opened and the waiter pushed in huge trash cans one after another on a cart.

They picked up the dishes on the table that Luo had only taken a small bite of, and poured them in one by one.

Yes, this is Luo's unique hobby.

She would not give away the unfinished food, nor would she pack it up. She would make sure to watch it being thrown into the trash can with her own eyes, enjoying the feeling of wasting food after having a full stomach.

Just like that, everyone just watched helplessly as delicious food was thrown away one after another.

Although the person who treated them was Zhao Yiming, given his financial resources, the money spent on this meal was nothing.

They often waste food, but this is the first time they have seen it wasted to this extent.

This person is really hard to understand.

Watching the waiter dump all 100 dishes into the trash can, Luo Cai turned his gaze to Zhao Yiming across from him and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, thank you for your hospitality. I am very satisfied with the food you prepared."

Luo is a special envoy from the capital's Shangdi, and he also wears a badge awarded by the headquarters of the three giant companies. He holds the power of life and death. Both his organization and status are far from comparable to regional figures like Zhao Yiming.

Zhao Yiming nodded slightly to her and said modestly, "Miss Luo, you are joking. It is my honor to have you come to the banquet."

Luo smiled, his golden eyes filled with mystery: "Mr. Zhao, there is no need to be so humble. You are the only regional leader who survived the battle of Babel Tower. The court and the headquarters are talking about you."

Zhao Yiming suddenly froze in place like a statue, his lips tightly pursed.

Luo held her cheek with her small hand and looked at him with interest: "I heard that you changed into women's clothes, stuffed a pillow in your belly to pretend to be pregnant, and then tricked Fenrir and escaped. Is this true or false?"

Zhao Yiming just gritted his teeth and remained silent, not saying a word.

Obviously, such embarrassing behavior not only trampled on his self-esteem, but also made him anxious, because in the eyes of the headquarters, this was definitely not a glorious thing.

Looking at the silent Zhao Yiming, Luo smiled softly, his voice became lighter: "Don't be so nervous, I just asked about the situation casually. There is nothing to be ashamed of."

"It's human nature to cherish one's life, especially for a big shot like you. When faced with a crisis, the most important thing is to survive. Only by surviving can you continue to do things."

"What's wrong with wearing women's clothes and pretending to be pregnant? There are many heroes in history who survived in dire straits, and later they all achieved great achievements, didn't they?"

"If I don't try to survive, am I going to be like Alexander, Tsukimi Ryuichi, and the others, being crushed to death like a bug? That would be even more ridiculous."

Zhao Yiming has held important positions for so many years that he has long understood one thing - don't look at what the leader says, look at what the leader does.

Everyone can say nice things, but how much truth is there in them?

Some nice words may indeed be compliments from the heart, but more often they are just sweet treats before a big stick.

Zhao Yiming calmed down his inner anxiety, deliberately skipped the topic, and took the initiative to ask: "Miss Luo, what instructions do you have from the headquarters?"

Luo smiled and said slowly: "Yes~ Your chairman asked me to bring you two gifts."

"Gift." Zhao Yiming was a little confused. Obviously, this statement was beyond his expectation.

"Pa." Luo clapped her hands, and the clerk standing in the corner handed her the briefcase with both hands.

Luo took out a beautifully crafted box from his briefcase and had it placed in front of Zhao Yiming.

Zhao Yiming glanced at Luo, and after getting permission from his eyes, he opened the box.

Inside was a double helix emblem.

The emblems of the joint-stock companies are all double-helix logos, but the workmanship may vary slightly depending on the region.

Regional-level badges all have silver borders.

The one in front of you has a gold border, symbolizing the headquarters area.

Luo smiled and looked at the dazed Zhao Yiming and said, "The first gift is the headquarters badge."

"Your chairman said that with your ability, Xinyue City is too small, so he reserved a position for you among the senior executives of the headquarters. You are welcome to take up the position."

Zhao Yiming was completely stunned. For the past few days, he had been living in anxiety every moment. His nightmares at night were all about the Tower of Babel being pierced by the Wolf King.

This is not only a fear of Fenrir, but more of a fear of the headquarters.

The Tower of Babel was overturned, and the region's elite and senior executives were almost all killed, but he was still alive. This was both fortunate and unfortunate.

Fortunately, he is still alive.

Unfortunately, life no longer belongs to him.

During this time, he also tried to contact the headquarters, but there was no response.

This silence was like the calm before the storm, tormenting him all the time. He didn't know how the headquarters would punish him.

But at this moment, he never expected that what he was waiting for after suffering so much inner torture was not punishment, but a promotion order to the headquarters.

This gift came so suddenly and was so incomprehensible that he felt like he was dreaming.

Zhao Yiming opened and closed his mouth, blinked his eyes randomly, and couldn't hide the confusion on his face: "Miss Luo, this..."

Luo raised his index finger to his lips and made a gesture of silence.

Zhao Yiming closed his mouth and waited for what was to come.

Luo put down his hand and smiled meaningfully: "Don't worry, there is a second gift."

She high-fived again, and this time the restaurant door opened and the clerk brought in a large rectangular object from outside on a cart.

Everyone took a closer look and gasped.

coffin!

The second "gift" was a coffin!

Luo stood up from his seat and walked to the coffin, pacing along it while gently stroking his fingers over it.

"Your chairman said that this coffin is his favorite model. It is made of pure sandalwood. It has a fragrant aroma when cremated. It is exclusively for important people."

"Over the past few decades, he has used this kind of coffin to send off 27 branch heads from various regions, allowing them to return to dust and earth."

Luo looked at Zhao Yiming, whose eyes were out of focus, and asked in a playful tone: "Mr. Zhao, which of the two gifts do you like? Don't be greedy. You can only choose one."

When Zhao Yiming came to his senses, his back was covered in cold sweat and his shirt was soaked. He also understood what the headquarters meant.

He stood up and bowed to Luo at almost 90 degrees, and said in a low and suppressed voice: "Please give me your instructions."

"Tap, tap, tap" the high heels touched the ground, and the light yet cold sound came from far away, and finally stopped beside Zhao Yiming.

Luo leaned down and met Zhao Yiming's gaze from below.

The light from the ceiling was blocked, and the backlight shadows fell on Luo's face, making it difficult to distinguish the details of his expression. All one could see were those golden eyes that did not convey any emotion.

For a moment, Zhao Yiming had some kind of illusion. These golden eyes seemed to belong not to humans but to cold-blooded animals, or poisonous snakes.

That gentle, yet deadly oppressive voice reached his ears: "I want the Wolf King."

"Fenrir was seriously injured after piercing through the Tower of Babel. No matter who took him away, he couldn't have gone far. He must be lying in a corner of this city."

"Cooperate with me to find her, whether she's dead or alive, you can go to the headquarters for a higher position."

"If you don't find it, you will go into the coffin, and your ashes will return to ashes, and your dust will return to dust."

After hearing these words, Zhao Yiming's attention became focused again.

He did not speak, but just maintained the bowing posture, lowering his head even lower, using this humble mentality of a subordinate as a response to Luo.

Luo held Zhao Yiming's arm and straightened him up, and the light from the ceiling finally illuminated her face.

Zhao Yiming suddenly realized that there was still a gentle smile in those golden eyes, and the cold-blooded animal feeling just now seemed to be just an illusion.

Luo gently stroked Zhao Yiming's shirt, smoothing out the wrinkles from his bowing just now, and said with a smile: "Boss Zhao, you have worked in Xinyue City for so many years, you have countless connections, and you have also supported many forces."

"Is it not painful for me to dig a few pieces of flesh from you?"

Zhao Yiming quickly understood what Luo was talking about. He responded in a deep voice, "I will obey your orders in everything."

Luo smoothed out the last wrinkle on Zhao Yiming's shirt, patted his shoulder with a smile, and turned to leave.

"It's time to get to work and catch all those who have crossed the red line."
