Let You Support Your Wife, Not Your Boss

"Do you have time to accompany me? Haha, yes, yes, Brother Lu is really a person who appreciates promotion."

"I appreciate a man like you who is decisive and insightful."

The smile on Xu Sheng's face became more and more obvious.

It seemed to him that things were now half done.

As long as you ask the man in front of you out, everything will be easy.

I imagine that as long as he shows off his superior abilities and status, he can easily subdue the other person as his younger brother just like the protagonist of the villain web novel.

"Whether you are a succubus or not, it is always a good thing to have good communication skills, but...why do I feel that this aspect of communication will bring me trouble?"

Lu Nan didn't care about Xu Sheng's psychological activities, he was still a little confused.

"Um, Brother Lu, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Sheng asked with a puzzled expression.

"No, nothing. Well, I'm probably a little flattered."

Lu Nan reacted quickly, shook his head, and said such polite words with a false smile.

The arrogant, stupid guy in front of him didn't cause him much trouble.

What really made Lu Nan feel uneasy was Xiao Youwei who was waiting not far away.

After Xu Sheng held his hand, the artificial god's eyes suddenly became dangerous.

She summoned the meat cleaver, her eyes flickering between Lu Nan's and Xu Sheng's hands.

The look in the eyes of this Sanwu loli at this time was very much like that of a sickly girl who saw her lover being defiled by someone else.

No, is this child... so terrifying in terms of possessiveness?

No matter if you are a man or a woman, it is not okay for others to touch you?

"Okay, Brother Lu, guess what big thing we are going to do next."

Xu Sheng laughed. This arrogant guy didn't realize how terrible his actions just offended him.

He just continued the previous topic seemingly casually.

"Mr. Xu's hands and eyes are very good. How could I, a person from the lower district, guess it?" Lu Nan shook his head, "If I had to guess... I think it might have something to do with the upper district."

"Oh, yes, I guessed it right. It is indeed related to the upper-class area, but it is not a big deal to me. It is just an interview with an important person."

Xu Sheng said with a somewhat showy tone.

He revealed this to Lu Nan in advance, which was not a secret but would surely be publicized by him later as a political means.

"Important person? The church, or...the company."

Lu Nan continued to ask with a hesitant look.

With Xu Sheng's current status... there are few people in this city who deserve to be called a big shot by him.

Even the middle-aged female supervisor of the company would not make him so solemn.

"You are so smart, you might as well guess. Haha, there will be rewards for guessing right, and punishment for guessing wrong."

Xu Sheng spread his hands with interest.

He asked Lu Nan in a tone that was teasing the little girl.

However, this one-sided pleasure for him did not continue... The roar of steam interrupted this conversation.

With a huge roar, several red lasers as thick as an adult's arm were shot in Xu Sheng's direction without warning.

Something happened quietly that was not mentioned at all in the game plot.

In the Brotherhood's territory, their young master was attacked murderously.

Clang clang clang!

Xu Sheng raised his hand, and a transparent shield appeared in front of him out of thin air.

The laser, hot enough to burn through steel, failed to penetrate the defenses of the fourth level Transcendent.

Then... a violent explosion swept through again, and the laser transmission was interrupted.

About seven or eight armors with bronze as the main color and looking like small Gundams appeared not far from the street.

This is steam-powered armor produced by Xu Sheng's arms organization.

It is a terrifying war weapon made using steam and the mysterious Transcendent knowledge.

If put into use on a large scale, even the fourth-level Transcendents would most likely be killed by them.

However, such war weapons did not launch further terrorist attacks after one missed hit. Instead, they were paralyzed in place as if they were scrapped.

"Lu Nan...are you okay?" Xiao Youwei rushed over from the side with a notebook full of words and hugged Lu Nan, who was slightly injured in the aftermath.

In the attack just now, she intercepted all the artillery shells fired at Lu Nan, and cut all the power armor into two pieces.

"This style? Good, good, good. Use the weapons I gave you to rebel against me. It's really good!"

Before Lu Nan could answer, Xu Sheng on the other side had already rushed forward with a livid complexion.

Looking at the scrapped steam-powered armor in front of him, he lifted the mask of one of them with anger.

A fraternity member who looked quite familiar to him suddenly appeared inside.

"Brother Lu, no, Mr. Lu... I think I need an explanation."

After Xu Sheng took a deep breath, he turned his head and looked at the other "member" of the fraternity present.

There was anger in his eyes after being fooled.

"Mr. Xu, calm down. As you just saw, I am also the target of the attack. At least I have nothing to do with this matter."

Lu Nan said without changing his expression as he pushed away Xiao Youwei who was holding him and refused to let go.

He didn't panic at all because of something that had nothing to do with him.

"But... aren't you okay now?"

Xu Sheng was obviously not convinced by such rhetoric.

He raised his hand, and a white beam of light gathered in the palm of his hand.

Xiao Youwei also stood in front of Lu Nan at this time. She picked up the meat cleaver, and a red light representing killing flashed in her blue pupils.

"Please calm down, Mr. Xu, you have also seen the strength of this child...if all the laser weapons were aimed at you just now, and she attacked you from behind."

"Mr. Xu, you can think about what will happen to you. If I really want to kill you with violence, I don't need to be so careful."

Lu Nan coughed, then he gently pressed Xiao Youwei's head and continued to calmly tell Xu Sheng his analysis.

The current situation is undoubtedly very bad for him.

However, Lu Nan did not blame the Sanwu loli next to him for disrupting his plan.

The attack just now was indeed dangerous.

Moreover... Xu Sheng, a cold-blooded guy at heart, did this for the reason of saving energy and ensuring his own safety.

There is a high probability that he will not help Lu Nan, who is currently only a second-level Transcendent.

If... Xiao Youwei hadn't taken action, then there was at least a 90% chance that Lu Nan would die in the murder just now.

"What you said seems to make sense, but...there are still many places that cannot be explained."

"Are you really a member of the Brotherhood? Mr. Lu."

Xu Sheng said again after being silent for a long time.

Because of the pleasant exchange just now, he was very willing to believe Lu Nan.

However, after seeing Xiao Youwei, his eyes that were originally full of trust became a little more suspicious.

It can easily destroy steam-powered armor, which means that the opponent should be the same as yourself...the fourth level, a Transcendent judged as a Beta level?

Are there really such powerful people in the fraternity? Even if it were true, he shouldn't be so obedient and follow someone whose strength is not as good as his own.

Xu Sheng frowned. He looked at the two people in front of him, his eyes seemed a little erratic.
