Guests left one after another, and a Beastman quietly boarded a black car, taking the seat beside the driver.
"Did things go awry?"
Through the rearview mirror, he could see a pair of indifferent misty blue eyes.
The Beastman looked ashamed, "Yes... I had already sent someone to block the female that El arranged, but it was disrupted by a little cub!"
The male Beastman sitting in the back laughed softly, "Heh, if you ask me, the Carl family isn’t ruthless enough; they should just directly assassinate Guan Yue..."
The Cavon family’s plan was merely to drug Guan Yue but lacked the courage to actually kill her; El sent a female to intervene and tried to hook up with the Guan family.
However, this outcome wasn’t what he wanted to see.
What if the pawn in his hand seized the opportunity to slip away?
Moreover, the Guan family has always been a formidable adversary blocking their way, and if they could be eliminated, that would be ideal...
"About Yu Man..." The Beastman probed.
"Don’t touch her for now. She poses no threat, and it’s unnecessary to antagonize the Reed family because of her, besides... she’s still tied to the Guan family through her daughter."
"Just watch and see. We don’t need to act; if she truly threatens us, it won’t be too late to strike then."
The Beastman nodded, "Yes!"
Those misty blue eyes slowly closed, "Let’s go back; it’s so dull..."
At the banquet, Meadon, seeing most were gone, also prepared to leave.
Meadon whispered to Yu Man, "Man, I’m leaving too!"
"Let’s keep in touch!" Meadon winked at Yu Man, "Don’t worry! I’m tight-lipped; I won’t tell my uncle!"
Yu Man shot him a glance.
That line was pure nonsense!
Who doesn’t know that Meadon listens mostly to his uncle?
Meadon cheerfully knew Yu Man didn’t believe him and promised again, "Man, you rank before my uncle!"
But if my uncle forces me to speak, I can’t resist him and can only spill the truth!
"Man... You won’t put me on the blacklist once I leave, will you?"
Yu Man: She actually had that in mind...
"Alright then! Man, goodbye!" Meadon walked out and at the corner met a pair of deep eyes.
"Uncle! Are you a ghost or something, suddenly standing here and scaring me?"
Blanwen glanced at him, "I’ve been here the whole time."
Meadon coughed, showed him the Light Brain page, and said gleefully, "Look! I acted, and Aunt took me out of the blacklist!"
"Is that so?" Blanwen clicked a familiar number and made a call...
"Beep, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable! Please try again later!"
Meadon was dumbfounded!
Wasn’t it agreed that she wouldn’t put him back on the blacklist?
Aunt’s words didn’t count!
Meadon wore a mournful face.
"Alright, let’s go." Blanwen put his hands in his pockets, walking into the night.
"Hey, Uncle!" Meadon caught up, "You came all the way, why not go inside? If you went in, wouldn’t you see Aunt?"
"Maybe she’s willing to listen to your explanation?"
Blanwen paused, "She doesn’t want to see me. If I went in, she’d turn around and leave."
What he didn’t know was that Yu Man had a task tonight; without seeing Guan Yue and Mansa safe, she wouldn’t leave easily...
At the banquet, Mansa had already left for their private hospital to detoxify.
Now, except for the Guan family, only Yu Man and her group remained.
The grab-and-choose ceremony continued.
Coincidentally, Guan Yue truly grabbed the medal that Mansa placed inside...
Old Sir Guan was very pleased.
"In the future, our little Guan Yue will definitely be a female general!"
Guan Lingxue handed Yu Man a glass of juice, "I heard you’re pregnant, congratulations."
Yu Man nodded, "Thank you."
"I heard about your name a long time ago." Guan Lingxue leaned on the long table with one hand.
Yu Man sipped her juice, "Because of what happened five years ago?"
Guan Lingxue’s eyes twinkled with a hint of a smile, "Not really."
"Speaking of which... you’re still my junior." Guan Lingxue said, "Many years ago, I went back to Jiuzhou University and happened to see you."
"That day, it was bright and sunny, and as I was passing by, I found someone confessing." Guan Lingxue thought about it and laughed, "You didn’t even look at him, just let your Beast Husband handle it and turned around to leave!"
Yu Man reminisced, "Did that even happen?"
She didn’t even remember it.
Guan Lingxue nodded, "I thought, this girl’s temper is quite to my liking."
Later, busy taking on family affairs, she became increasingly occupied, flying worldwide at intervals.
Yu Man’s heroic deeds were things she heard about upon returning to the country.
"I even saw your graduation thesis by chance." Guan Lingxue said thoughtfully, "Spiritual power control combined with technology..."
"What about now?" Guan Lingxue’s eyes subtly gleamed, "Are you still doing it?"
Yu Man was taken aback, replied somberly, "Of course."
She appears not to be working, but in Song Chen’s company, she acts as a technical consultant, contributing about half of its technology.
Yu Man is not the type to linger in gloom.
After being suppressed, she indeed became downcast for a while.
But she quickly bounced back.
Collaborating with Song Chen, almost no one knows her role in Huafeng Technology.
"We’ve been developing a kind of Rest Pod."
This Rest Pod is designed specifically for Beastmen whose Spiritual Sea has issues.
Beastmen enter the Rest Pod, connecting their spiritual power to it, stepping into the constructed holographic space.
The holographic space simulates the natural environment for Beastmen. For example, Fish Clan Beastmen have the ideal seas simulated, Land Beastmen have the best grasslands, forests, etc.
The natural sounds accompanying this holographic space are the purest sounds collected over these years worldwide.
Years ago, Yu Man researched that Beastmen, possessing animal genes, when in a calm, peaceful, and optimal environment as per their animal genes requirements, their nerves relax greatly and effectively reduce the fluctuations in the Spiritual Sea. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
However, today’s world rarely has such environments.
Hence, she proposed constructing one.
Thus, the ratio between female and male Beastmen varies dramatically; when male Beastmen’s Spiritual Sea is turbulent, seeking females to purify it can be costly.
If mild turbulence in the male Beastman’s Spiritual Sea can be alleviated, then many issues can be resolved.
"The idea is quite good, though others are working on this project now without much success."
Guan Lingxue said, "If your product impresses me, perhaps I could help you..."
Yu Man and Song Chen exchanged glances, "No problem..."
