When Du Yue first entered the room, she had already guessed the identity of Chief Mu. Now, it seemed that her guess was correct. However, Mu Chen’s words surprised her. He ‘invited’ her here just to ask her this? Du Yue could not figure out what he was up to, so she decided not to think about it anymore. She walked forward and sat on the chair opposite Mu Chen.

Du Yue sat on the chair and looked at Mu Chen. “I’m really sorry. 1 don’t know the reason either. Why don’t you investigate it yourself? Let me know when you find out.”

Mu Chen laughed softly, his voice somewhat feminine. “Ever since you came to this underground base, you’ve always been careful. When people came to find trouble with you, you only verbally rebuked them. 1 thought that you were timid and afraid of trouble. Now it seems that I’ve underestimated you.”

She clearly knew his identity and still dared to speak so arrogantly. This woman’s courage was not ordinary!

Du Yue was too lazy to beat about the bush with him. “If there’s nothing else, I won’t accompany you.”

“What’s the rush?” Mu Chen smiled and said. “The two of them are busy with their own matters. They won’t be able to return for a while. Therefore, you can calm down and have a good chat with me.”

Du Yue frowned slightly. “You deliberately sent them away just to chat with me?”

Mu Chen looked at her with admiration. “You’re quite smart. Since that’s the case, there’s no need for me to beat about the bush with you. 1 called you here to give the three of you a chance to soar. As long as you can convince He Xing and Xia Ju to help me build the fourth base into the largest base on the entire blue planet, I’ll be able to guarantee the three of you a life of luxury. Your positions in the base will be second only to mine. You’ll be an existence below one and above ten thousand.”

Truthfully speaking, after Mu Chen finished speaking, Du Yue had a whole new level of respect for him. Ever since she got to know He Xing, she had seen a few people from the galaxy. This was the first time she had heard Mu Chen’s thoughts. Did he think that fighting alone was not a solution and killing each other was not a good idea, so he wanted to rope them in to help him?

Du Yue looked at Mu Chen with interest. “The only ones you are really interested in are He Xing and Xia Ju, right? Why did you come to me to talk about this?”

“You are indeed a smart person. I’ve been observing you for a long time. I know that He Xing and Xia Ju usually listen to you, and you usually make the decisions among the three of you. That’s why 1 came to you. I want you to persuade them.”

“What if 1 don’t help you?”

“Even if you don’t help, 1 have other ways.” Mu Chen sat up straight, and his eyes darkened. “If you’re willing to help, then everyone will be happy. If you don’t cooperate, 1 can only invite you to my place to rest and discuss with the two of them. Don’t be afraid. I’ll definitely arrange a good place for you to eat and drink. When the time comes, you only need to rest quietly. You don’t need to do anything. 1 believe your friends will make the right choice.”

Du Yue’s face was filled with disdain. Although he said it in a flowery way, it was actually a threat. To be able to make imprisonment sound so pleasant, Mu Chen was truly a smiling tiger. Du Yue chuckled. “Your suggestion is good, but I’m not interested. 1 don’t like being threatened.”

Before Du Yue could finish his sentence, Mu Chen’s face had already darkened. “Du Yue, 1 might have to remind you that you are just an ordinary person from the blue planet. The reason why you can live such an easy life is because you’re dependent on He Xing and Xia Ju. What right do you have to say no to me?

“If it weren’t for the two of them, do you think you’d be worthy of sitting in front of me and discussing conditions with me? They rely on you, but don’t take yourself too seriously!”

Du Yue sneered and said, “That’s not up to you to decide. Since 1 dare to come, I naturally won’t be afraid of your coercion and temptation. Let me give you a piece of advice, don’t take yourself too seriously. Let me go back before 1 get angry. Otherwise, don’t regret—”

“I don’t have the word ‘regret’ in my dictionary! How are you going to make me regret it?”

“Then you can try.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Chen did not get angry. Instead, he laughed heartily. “Du Yue, there is a limit to acting crazy. What kind of person do you think I am? You want to leave just like that?”

Du Yue was too lazy to argue with him. She was used to fighting. Du Yue stood up, turned around, and walked toward the door. “Then open your eyes wide and see if I’m able to walk out of here..”
