Chapter 678

TranXending Vision

Xia Lei had left, and the Germans also dispersed. Only Ling Han and Song Baicheng remained in the hall, with ugly expressions on their faces.

“I…” Song Baicheng wanted to explain himself, but the words died when they came to his mouth. He honestly did not know what to say.

“There’s no need to explain. I know what’s going on.” Ling Han’s voice was cold. “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too stupid! You cannot even see through such a simple trap! Did you think you were some sort of god of love? You cannot see through such a simple trap? Why would that German woman even like you?”

Song Baicheng face was filled with shame and he dared not talk.

Ling Han sighed. “That German woman framed you, and Xia Lei even pulled me into the conflict. Do you know why he did that?”

Song Baicheng thought about it and answered carefully, “Did he want to take revenge on us for what we did last time?”

Ling Han knew what Song Baicheng was talking about, but he said, “If that is what you think, then you are underestimating Xia Lei.”

“If he is not taking revenge for what happened in the past, then what is it?” Song Baicheng couldn’t figure it out.

“Did you forget who came by this morning?” said Ling Han.

Song Baicheng paused, then understood all of a sudden. “Mr Z, are you talking about Fan Fan? Could she be behind this?”

“I guess you are not entirely stupid.”

“Xia Lei actually wants to help Fan Fan get the position of the Director of the ZN Bureau. Is he crazy?”

“He is not crazy. He is very sure of what he wants.”

“He will regret it! Boss Zongzheng favours you, and he’s supporting you too. Whatever Fan Fan does is useless. Xia Lei is intervening now and helping Fan Fan to go against you – is he not afraid of us making trouble for him in the future?” said Song Baicheng furiously.

“Do you still not get it? It is because he is scared of us causing trouble for him in the future that he’s doing this.”

Song Baicheng stared blankly.

"Old Song, you have followed me for so many years... This is a critical time now. Will you be willing to make a little sacrifice for me?"

“Mr Z, do you doubt my loyalty? Tell me, what do you want me to do?” Song Baicheng’s eyes were filled with determination. He looked like a completely different person from before.

“Very good! I will gave Boss Zongzheng a call to explain the situation, then you will go turn yourself in. Remember – turn yourself in to the police, and not to Boss Zongzheng.”

“I…” Song Baicheng had obviously not expected Ling Han to suggest something like this.

“Don’t worry. This exchange will be done soon, and you will be able to come out at anytime after the German leave. I should have taken over Boss Zongzheng’s position by then. I will give you Fan Fan’s position when you return,” said Ling Han.

Song Baicheng did not hesitate. He nodded. “I understand. Please call Boss Zongzheng and I will turn myself in. I was the one who caused this mess, so I cannot drag you down with me. I will shoulder all the blame for this!”

Ling Han patted Song Baicheng on the shoulder, then took out his phone...

Meanwhile, in Koen’s room.

"Miss Sylvia, there is only the two of us in here, so can you tell me the truth now?" said Koen.

"Mr Koen, to be honest with you, Mark Armin gave me clear orders to get on Mr Xia's good side and obtain information on the Hellhound One-soldier Cannon. I came here ahead of the delegation and came to an agreement with Mr Xia. He said that  he will give me what I want if I help him chase away that guy surnamed Ling."

Koen became excited. "That’s great! I will contact ambassador Philip to go pressure the Chinese side right now."

The Hellhound One-soldier Cannon was a mighty bit of firepower for a soldier, but it was not a part of this exchange. It would be a great accomplishment to be able to obtain information on it!

Sylvia stood up and said politely, "Mr Koen, I need to go back now. Good night."

Koen asked curiously, "Don’t you want to wait until I finish my call with Mr Philip, and go back after you know the result?"

Sylvia pointed at the white tank top around her waist and said with a smile, "I need to return it to Mr Xia. You have your work to do, and I also have things I want to do."

Koen paused and quickly understood. He smiled as he said, "All right then. I wish for your success, Miss Sylvia."

Under the canopy of night, Thunder Horse Military Factory had a sort of beauty with the moon shining down upon it. It was like a great dragon slumbering on the ground. Come dawn, this dragon would rush up into the sky, and make the whole world quake! 

“It is a miracle, and I’m about to have a date with the creator of this miracle.” A small smile appeared in the corners of Sylvia’s mouth. Xia Lei had the same background as she did, a machinist, but to her, he was an idol like Ronaldo and Messi were in the football world. How could she not be happy when she could have a date with her idol?  

Sylvia spotted Xia Lei walking out of the villa in shorts and slippers from a distance. His was naked from the waist up, and his muscles looked well-developed, full of manly power, yet pale and smooth; he was well-proportioned. She suspected that Xia Lei’s body was the sexiest she had ever seen, and his muscles the most beautiful she had ever laid eyes on. 

Xia Lei did not seem to have seen Sylvia. He headed straight toward the new factory area after he came out of the villa. What lay at the end of the path he was on was the core workshop of the Thunder Dragon intelligent lathe second generation.

"Mr Xia." Sylvia increased her pace and caught up to him.

Xia Lei glanced back and stopped in his steps. An attractive smile appeared on his face. "Miss Sylvia, did you need something?"

"I came to return your top." Sylvia walked to Xia Lei’s side. She gave a small tug and the tank top around her waist slipped off her body, leaving just that purple lace underwear on her lower body. It tightly hugged her sexy hot buttocks, and that very mysterious area. It was like a second skin, outlining the shape and curves of that place of hers.

Xia Lei hurriedly looked away and around himself. Fortunately, it was quite late, so there was no one around. If anyone had seen, rumours about him and the German machinist would be added to the gossip.

“Quick, tie it on,” urged Xia Lei.

But Sylvia did not listen. "Mr Xia, you promised me. I help you chase away that Ling guy, and you’ll fulfil my wish."

Xia Lei was a little at a loss for words. "I said that I will give you a Hellhound One-soldier Cannon unit. Wasn’t this your wish?”

"That is work, not my wish." The corners of Sylvia's mouth turned up into a sly smile. "Let’s talk. Are we going to your room, or my room?"

Xia Lei shrugged. "I'm on my way to the workshop to do some work. You want to come with me?"

"Of course." Sylvia tied Xia Lei’s tank top around her waist again.

Two Thunder Horse Military Factory security guards stood in front of the new factory's core workshop. They stood as straight as pencils when they saw Xia Lei coming over, and saluted him in unison.  

Xia Lei nodded in acknowledgement. He entered the password and scanned his fingerprint to open the door and brought Sylvia inside.

The second generation core workshop was very quiet. With a weight close to a thousand tons, the Thunder Dragon intelligent lathe second generation was like a Transformer which had yet transformed. It sat on the ground looking like it could turn into an invincible Transformer robot at any time.

It was not her first time her seeing it, but Sylvia was still mesmerised by the sight of the Thunder Dragon intelligent lathe second generation. It was a miracle to her, and it had a sexiness to it, just like its owner.

The first thing Xia Lei did when entered the control room was to turn off the surveillance cameras in the workshop.

Sylvia followed Xia Lei into the central control room and laughed. "You actually brought me here on purpose, didn't you? You don’t want to stay in the villa because the guy surnamed Ling had not left yet, and you don’t want him to find out the secret we share."

Xia Lei gave a laugh. "You are very smart. No one can enter this place without my permission. What did you want to talk to me about? Speak."

Sylvia pulled the tank top off her waist and threw it casually at Xia Lei's face.

Xia Lei grabbed the tank top and gave a small whiff. He smiled as he said, “It has your smell on it now. How can I put it on again?"

Sylvia’s own tank top landed on Xia Lei’s face too. This was her answer.

"I’ll get mad if you keep at this," said Xia Lei.

"So what if I make you mad? What will you do?" Sylvia's voice was filled with provocation. "What dare you do to me?"

Xia Lei walked towards her...

Half an hour later.

"Sylvia, come do it with me."

"Mmh? You still want more?" Sylvia looked at Xia Lei a little nervously.

Xia Lei slapped her ass. "I am not talking about that. I am talking about work. I am inviting you to come work at my company. You’re free to quote your conditions for employment."

“I…” Sylvia hesitated.

“It’s okay, you don’t need to give me a reply right now,” said Xia Lei.

“What position will you give me if I come over to your company?”

"Chief Engineer and Technical director, of course. You’re only the boss of a precision workshop in Rheinmetall AG, but here, you will receive a bigger stage for your talents," said Xia Lei. "I am planning on creating an engine project to produce engine for the tanks and armoured vehicles that will be manufactured soon. The engine for the tanks and armoured vehicles we’re currently buying from China Industrial Group do not reach my requirements. If I’m making tanks, I want to make the world's best tank. The engine is crucial. I want to manufacture it myself."

"I am not good with engines."

"Annina is. You are good with mechanical processing, and she has done research on engines to some extent. You would make a strong team if you work together. Besides, don’t we also have me? If the three of us work together, we will definitely be able to create the world's most advanced engine," said Xia Lei.

"I…" Sylvia was tempted by the offer, but she felt at a loss when she remembered her current plight. She still shouldered serious allegations of treason and was trying to disprove this accusation. How could she come to China to work for Xia Lei when she still had this problem hanging over her head?

Xia Lei smiled. "I know that you have some problems, but I can solve it for you."

"You can solve it for me?"

"Will you come to my company after it solve it for you?"

"If you can solve my problem then I will come work for you. However, if Annina comes too, you will be together with her. Would you forget about me then?"

"You and her are equally important to me. How would I forget you?" Xia Lei's opened his arms wide and drew a shape. "I will buy a big, big bed. Would you like that?"

Sylvia was stunned for a while, then her face flushed red and she sputtered, "Pervert!"

Xia Lei was speechless.
