The Supreme Beauty Fell in Love with Me

"But for me, it is very worthwhile," Fang Yuan said sincerely.

"Sigh," Lin Chuan sighed before he gently took off the ferocious mask and said, "I don't like this mask. I like the real you, not you with a mask. Understand?"

"I know, so I will take off the mask on my face as soon as possible," Fang Yuan said with a gorgeous smile.

"Alright, I believe you," Lin Chuan nodded, continued, "If there's any difficulty, just come to me. You can also go to Silver Fox, although she doesn't like you much, she surely won't refuse to help if you ask."

"Okay!" Fang Yuan nodded slowly.

"Then I'm leaving!" Lin Chuan spoke.

"I'll see you out," Fang Yuan said, looking up at Lin Chuan.

"No need," Lin Chuan shook his head, "Actually, I don't really like the poignant feeling of parting, let alone the feeling of life and death separation."

"Alright then," Fang Yuan was submissive, almost like a kitten in front of Lin Chuan. She nodded and said, "Since you don't like it, then I won't send you off. I will just stand here watching your distant figure leave."

Lin Chuan lit a cigarette, picked up a black canvas bag from the ground, and walked toward a nearby place.

Not far away, there was a silver-gray Mercedes G-Class SUV.

In front, stood a girl in black leather pants, with long legs and a prominent chest. In the desert, her long hair flowed freely. The scene had a vivacious charm. The girl, holding a rifle in her right hand, idly played with her flowing hair with her left hand. She was stunningly beautiful.

"Finally done with the mushy stuff?" the girl asked with a smile.

"Let's go," Lin Chuan said as he opened the car door, threw the luggage inside, and quickly jumped into the passenger seat.

The girl giggled and quickly got into the driver's seat as well.

"Xiao Lan, how are Wolverine and the others doing?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Everyone's doing pretty well," Miss Lan nodded and said, "But, without the captain here, everyone is quite unsettled. At first, when they heard you were fired, everyone was furious and wanted to go back to the country to have a good talk with the leaders. But they were refused."

"I'm doing quite well too," Lin Chuan said with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Of course, you're well," Miss Lan pursed her lips, snorted softly, "everywhere you go, there are beautiful girls who are utterly devoted to you."

"Jealous?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile.

"I can't be bothered with you," Miss Lan stepped on the gas, and the car sped off.

"Where's Silver Fox?" Lin Chuan asked.

"She got driven off by me," Miss Lan laughed.

"Be serious," Lin Chuan's expression turned stern.

"Fine, you're always getting mad at me because of a girl!" Miss Lan looked aggrieved and said softly, "There's trouble in Iraq, she left first. She told me to let you know."

Lin Chuan turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window. Outside, the landscape was a vast golden desert, with a long road stretching ahead. The long black asphalt road cut through the extensive golden desert, like a black snake. The scenery was beautiful and captivating.

......

Several days later, Lin Chuan left Qatar.

The tense situation in Qatar swiftly diffused. Forces from various countries also began withdrawing from Qatar. Although it was a false alarm, at least no major incident occurred, which could have been troublesome otherwise.

Qatar's Emir, Hamad, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"God bless," Hamad said excitedly, "This troublemaker has finally left; he almost turned my beautiful country upside down."

At that moment, while Hamad was excited, a guard hurriedly came from outside the palace.

"Your Highness, Ghost has arrived," said the guard hastily.

"Ghost?" Hamad was stunned, "He is still not dead?"

"This…" the guard was at a loss.

"Let him in," Hamad immediately said.

Then, a figure in black clothing and wearing a ferocious mask, 'Ghost', walked in.

Hamad looked at the Ghost in front of him with suspicion and asked coldly, "Who exactly are you? Why pretend in such a manner? According to my intelligence, Ghost is already dead."

At this moment, Ghost took off the mask, and said, "Yes, Ghost is indeed dead."

"You!" Hamad widened his eyes.

"Sorry to disappoint you," Ghost smiled faintly, "I was just Ghost's double."

"You!" Hamad exclaimed in shock, shouted, "Guards!"

Clattering noises…

More than ten armed guards swiftly poured in, each highly skilled. With Fang Yuan's ability, she was definitely no match for them.

"Who would have expected," Fang Yuan smirked, "Your Highness, you really are confused."

"What do you mean by that?" Hamad immediately demanded.

"If you want the country in chaos, go ahead and arrest me, then kill me," Fang Yuan sneered. "With my death, Ghost will truly perish. Then, the members of the Fire Butterfly will instantly fall apart, fight for power, and countless will die. I'm afraid that your country could end up in endless civil war like Iraq. And do you think the Americans will stand by when civil war breaks out? They are eagerly eyeing your oil and natural gas resources."

Sss...

Upon hearing this, Hamad hesitated immediately.

"What do you suggest?" Hamad promptly asked.

"Your Majesty, why don't we sit down and have a proper talk?" Fang Yuan smiled and said, "I'm just a woman; why bother deploying all these soldiers against me?"

"What gives you the right to negotiate with me?" Hamad sneered.

"Your Highness is wrong here," Fang Yuan calmly responded, "Now, I have complete control over Fire Butterfly, and nobody dares to question my identity. All core subordinates of Ghost have been exterminated by me. Fire Butterfly is entirely under my control. I believe I have the conditions and the capital to discuss with Your Highness."

Hamad gave an embarrassed smile and waved, "Dismissed!"

Clatter...

More than ten armed guards retreated like the tide. In the grand hall, only the two of them remained. Hamad smiled and said, "Sit down. I am indeed curious about what you want to discuss."

"It's simple," Fang Yuan sat down on the luxurious chair beside her and continued, "I hope Your Highness will continue to honor the promise made to Ghost, and I, like Ghost, will continue to lead Fire Butterfly in serving Your Highness."

"That's all?" Hamad asked.

"Of course!" Fang Yuan nodded, "Isn't it wonderful for us to collaborate and create revenue together?"

Hamad looked at Fang Yuan cunningly, "What if I ask you to hand over the oil fields, would you agree?"

"Impossible!" Fang Yuan spoke sternly, "If Your Highness attempts to make me hand over the oil fields, it would be cutting off our lifeline, forcing us to confront Your Highness."

Fang Yuan was skilled in negotiation; she was soft when needed and harsh when necessary, showing no hint of compromise or retreat.

Fang Yuan was deeply aware that the oil field controlled by Fire Butterfly was her economic lifeline. If she lost this oil field, she might lose her means of survival. If the oil fields were taken by Hamad, she would have to depend on Hamad like a beggar dog, which she absolutely did not want to happen.

"Alright." Hamad looked disappointed, his idea of seizing back the oil fields thus foiled.

Hamad was the type who disliked trouble. Now rich and globally wealthy, part of the wealthiest family in the world, he wanted no wars and certainly did not wish to plunge his country into turmoil over a small oil field, preferring not to lose the bigger picture over something trivial.

"So, does this mean our cooperation is established?" Fang Yuan asked with a smile.

"Good," Hamad nodded, "As long as you remain loyal to me, all is well."

"Great," Fang Yuan nodded.

......

Lin Chuan has been gone for five days.

Tang Yumeng hasn't seen Lin Chuan for five consecutive days, couldn't get through to his phone, and nobody was at his house. It's as if he disappeared into thin air. This made Tang Yumeng somewhat anxious. A day or two was tolerable, but not seeing Lin Chuan for five consecutive days made her worry that something might have happened to him.

"No, I need to go to the police," Tang Yumeng hurriedly walked towards the door.

"Sister-in-law," a voice called at this moment.

"Zhou Kai?" At Changlin Factory, Tang Yumeng ran into Zhou Kai, who was just coming in from outside, he smiled and said, "Hey, sister-in-law, what brings you to our factory?"

"Zhou Kai, where is Lin Chuan?" Tang Yumeng quickly asked.

"Oh, right, sister-in-law, you came looking for Brother Chuan," Zhou Kai laughed hurriedly, "But it seems like Brother Chuan has gone out."

"Where did he go?" Tang Yumeng asked anxiously.

"It seems... he went abroad," Zhou Kai scratched his head, "Didn't he tell you?"

Hearing this, Tang Yumeng squinted her eyes and stormed off angrily.

Watching Tang Yumeng leave in anger, Zhou Kai felt something was off and exclaimed confusedly, "Oh man, didn't I say something wrong?"

Just as Zhou Kai left, a taxi returned to Changlin Factory.

Exhausted from the past few days, Lin Chuan returned home and went straight to sleep.

"Brother Lin, you're back?" Nuo Xiaoxi watched excitedly as Lin Chuan returned from a trip to Hainan, her skin much tanner.

"Yes!" Lin Chuan nodded, "How was it? Did you have fun?"

"Fun!" Nuo Xiaoxi nodded and said, "After returning from Hainan, I also went to Xishuangbanna, Guangxi, to visit a classmate's home."

"Glad to hear it," Lin Chuan smiled, "School starts in a little over a month, what are you planning to do?"

"I plan to work a summer job," Nuo Xiaoxi smiled, "This way I can earn some money and lighten your burden a bit."
