Chapter 933: Stealing from Lear

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: AtlasStudios

But the bit of scuffle was nothing new to Elite Academy X. After the bother had been chased away, they could enjoy themselves. Elite Academy X was different from other colleges because such low-level braggarts were non-existent.

Ai Xiaolu and Luo Er were feeling playful, which was why they had shown their cards. But Er Yu and the rest were indeed shocked. They were exceptionally delighted at Zhang Shan’s mysterious guests. Clearly, everyone was willing to be friends with the Ms. Perfects.

On the way back to school, Ai Xiaolu and Luo Er walked together, speaking one on one. Ai Xiaolu wanted to have a feel for Luo Er’s attitude. Wang Zheng had told her before that he was asking Luo Er for help as well. After all, the Chairman’s daughter would have unmatched intelligence on the situation. At the very least, she could learn of the Milky Way Alliance’s view on the matter.

And Ai Xiaolu knew that Luo Er thought well of Wang Zheng. This good feeling would help matters along quite a bit.

“You know about Wang Zheng’s problem as well?” Luo Er asked. She obviously knew that Ai Xiaolu was managing Saruman Snake Battle Team. Many people had seen Saruman Snake’s successful transformation as in no small part due to Ai Xiaolu’s efforts. This had made many Hail Cloud Alliance students unhappy. After all, Icefire Battle Team’s results were not as good.

“Wang Zheng and I are good friends. Many of his friends are on Tita Star and, actually, his wealth is all invested on Tita Star.” Ai Xiaolu twinkled.

Luo Er laughed lightly, starting up the shuttle. She could not drive too fast – this was no mech – but she did enjoy the feeling of being free in the air.

“Are you going to help him?” Luo Er suddenly asked, smiling.

Ai Xiaolu was taken aback. Looking at this petite Gemini Star girl, she suddenly realized that she had committed a grave error. As the Chairman’s daughter, and also a specialist in social systems, her IQ and EQ must both be out of this world.

“I am.” Ai Xiaolu had no need to deceive her. Besides, the Council’s stance was important in such an endeavor.

Luo Er smiled slightly. “I can see that you’re concerned for Wang Zheng. Given the rules of the Ai family, what you’re doing may be overboard.”

“Keke, for me to do this, it must pass the family. From a business perspective, I’ve invested in Wang Zheng as a person. I favor him.”

“Oh, is that right? There are tons of talent in Elite Academy X, and you’ve invested in the most risky one,” Luo Er said.

Ai Xiaolu was suddenly calm. This was the real Luo Er. People were often taken in by the appearances of Gemini Star people, but these appearances meant nothing to Gemini Star people. She looked like a loli, but in truth, Luo Er was very mature.

“High risk, high reward. And? What’s your reason for helping Wang Zheng? Don’t tell me that you like him,” Ai Xiaolu said.

Luo Er flashed a brilliant smile. “Don’t be so stodgy. Wang Zheng is not exactly my cup of tea. But he has a very alluring quality. Go ahead and guess. If you’re right, I don’t mind giving you a boost on this.”

Ai Xiaolu knew that Luo Er was testing her. What was Luo Er referring to?

If Ai Financial Group was the stereotypical corporate family, then Luo Er was the stereotypical political family. And she had made it to the pinnacle of the Milky Way.

What did political families value?

Bravery? Strength? Potential?

None of these were of primary importance. Suddenly, Ai Xiaolu smiled, and opened her mouth. Luo Er smiled in response, nodding.

“Even so, I think it’s still insufficient,” Ai Xiaolu said.

“You’ve answered correctly. That’s why I chose to say nothing. This matter coincides with the Council’s interests. Besides, I might take a hand as well. Take it as my branching out from politics.” Luo Er laughed.

If Wang Zheng was here, he would definitely be rendered speechless. The angle from which they saw the problem was completely different, as a result of their upbringing. In the stable era of the vast interstellar, the rulers of humanity had always been the descendants of the family. Excellent genes, excellent education, excellent resources dedicated for nurturing. This had built a dominating tier which new blood struggled to break out of. Many were assimilated.

“There is indeed some difficulty to this. If it succeeds, this should be a real feather in your cap.”

“That’s why, Classmate Xiaolu, we both acknowledge the need for cooperation. Let’s help Wang Zheng get ahead,” Luo Er said.

Both girls gave a knowing smile. Although they got along well with their peers, their upbringing was very different. They were not destined for a simple life. But they concealed it well, until they met one of their like.

Ai Xiaolu had first discovered Wang Zheng as a target. Although Luo Er had originally taken note of him, she had not held any special interest. Until the Gemini Star trip, when Butcher’s attitude and Wang Zheng’s performance had shown her that he was more than the rumors. He was more impressive than expected.

As for liking him, it was true that she held affection for him. Anything deeper than that would require more careful consideration.

With Luo Er’s help, Ai Xiaolu suddenly felt the pressure alleviated. But still, this matter would be one of the hardest things that Ai Xiaolu would take on to date.

More tangibly, how this matter would turn out, and the difficulty, would still depend on the main player, the bigger country in the shadows.

And as for who it was, and where the final bottom line was, these had to be found out. It was extremely dangerous for Ai Financial Group to intervene in this. This risk could very well set the family back, and the lifeline of Luo Er was a helpful push.

Ai Xiaolu kneaded her forehead. That punk Wang Zheng had indeed set her a tough nut to crack.

But only such difficult tasks could arouse her interest.

Wang Zheng had maintained communications with Tita Star as well. Things had been relatively peaceful recently, and no arms were used. Many of the business groups also could not ignore their previous investments, and a semblance of peace had been restored. But they dared not to let their guard down. Mu Sen and Lan Ling hoped for Wang Zheng to return.

To return... Wang Zheng deemed it necessary as well. At this time, he should be facing it all together with Rara Durai, even if it was war. As for external matters, he could only depend on Ai Xiaolu.

The second round of the Greatest King battle was about to start. Rumors flew that the big Battle Teams had supplemented their lineups, with some making radical changes. Saruman Snake Battle Team was facing trouble. Once Snow Li left, they would be in a tough spot. But compared to the Battle Team matters, the Tita people’s situation was more pressing.

Before leaving, Wang Zheng felt that he should give Lear a present.

Wang Zheng arrived at the place that he and Lie Xin had arranged to meet. Lie Xin was lounging around drinking coffee, giving Wang Zheng a burning look that he wasn’t sure was a smile.

“What’s up?” Lie Xin was as straightforward as usual. Her beautiful, long legs were splayed all over, and Wang Zheng was not sure where to look.

“I want you to join Saruman Snake Battle Team!” Wang Zheng did not beat around the bush either.

Lie Xin laughed. “Why?”

“I need to go to Tita Star. You know the situation as well. In my absence, Achilles alone won’t do. We need you,” Wang Zheng said frankly.

“And why should I agree?”
