Chapter 251: Chapter 252: Making Money

When Yang Chen returned to the small hotpot restaurant, Zhao Teng and Wang Jie were already anxiously waiting. They breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Yang Chen finally arrive.

"Director, did you meet someone you know?" Wang Jie asked.

"Sort of, just some casual chat," Yang Chen smiled. "Let's go, back to the company."

After dropping off Zhao Teng and Wang Jie at the Yulei Entertainment, Yang Chen didn't go back to his office. Instead, he told them he would first go talk to the investment partner, which naturally delighted them.

Yang Chen drove directly to the Rose Bar. Since he was only part-time at the PR department of Yulei, mainly for chatting with the girls there, whether he showed up for work or not didn't matter much. This made things a lot easier, without Lin Ruoxi nagging about attendance issues.

There weren't many people at Rose Bar in the afternoon. Yang Chen walked in to find Chen Rong directing a few waiters in cleaning up. She was dressed in a black and white dress resembling a maid outfit, and Chen Rong had grown into a young woman.

Seeing Yang Chen, Chen Rong smiled sweetly. "Big brother Yang, Big Sister isn't here right now; she left in the morning."

"Oh?" Yang Chen wasn't disappointed about missing her, smiling as he asked, "Is work going smoothly? I heard from Rose that you've started taking over some other aspects of the business?"

Chen Rong blushed. "Last time I made an investment mistake and lost a lot of money, so now I'm a bit scared."

"Don't worry about it. If they let you do it, they must be prepared for you to fail. Many CEOs started from junior high school and slowly made their way up. You graduated from high school and got into college. Seriously follow Rose and learn from her, and in a few years, you'll surely be able to stand on your own," Yang Chen encouraged with a smirk. "When our Rong Rong becomes the boss, I'll be able to take Big Sister Rose away. I'll still count on you then."

Chen Rong puffed her cheeks, nodding happily.

Yang Chen then called Rose's phone and learned that she had gone to the apartment where the "Seahawk" team was stationed, specifically to check on Seahawk's work.

Yang Chen asked her to take good care of the Seahawk team members, and Rose indeed took her responsibilities seriously.

Racing all the way, Yang Chen quickly arrived at the apartment building where the Seahawk team members resided. Under the guidance of a Red Bauhinia guard, Yang Chen arrived at the basement of the apartment building.

It was an extremely spacious and concealed space, originally a warehouse for storing prohibited items, but now it had been completely transformed. It became a place where Seahawk team members stored sophisticated instruments and advanced computers.

Upon entering the basement, Yang Chen immediately saw rows of advanced instruments neatly arranged, alongside various screens of different sizes. Some displayed data, while others showed video images and maps. It was all specialized information that only those trained in military-grade information could understand.

At that moment, Rose, wrapped in a fiery red leather outfit that accentuated her graceful figure, was conversing with several trusted subordinates alongside Captain Molin of the Seahawk team. Rose had brought along a subordinate fluent in multiple foreign languages specifically to act as a translator.

Upon seeing Yang Chen approach, Rose smiled charmingly and walked over to embrace him. "Darling, your friends are quite remarkable. If I had them helping me earlier, I would have taken down the Western Alliance Society and Dongxing without all the hassle of scheming."

Yang Chen lightly flicked Rose's nose. "The process of creating it yourself is the most wonderful. Using nuclear weapons to flatten a city, aside from ending things decisively, holds no meaning."

Molin looked on with envy at Yang Chen and Rose. "Dark King, are there many beautiful women like Miss Rose in the Flame Summer? Could you introduce me to one? I suddenly feel like marrying a Flame Summer woman."

"You want to settle down in this country?" Yang Chen asked curiously.

"Why not? Great food, strong liquor, beautiful women, and everything's so cheap here; it's practically heaven!" Molin exclaimed excitedly.

Yang Chen smirked. "Wait six months, then come back and say that. If you still think it's suitable for you, just have Rose arrange it for you."

Rose giggled at the translation, teasingly rolling her eyes at Yang Chen. "I'm not playing matchmaker. Besides, I'm not even of proper status myself."

"Keep talking like that, and I'll hit you," Yang Chen teased, playfully pinching Rose's cheek, enjoying its soft, springy texture.

Blushing, Rose bit her crystal-clear lip. "Everyone's watching! Are you trying to embarrass me in front of my subordinates?"

Yang Chen glanced coldly at the people around them, including the Seahawk team members, who discreetly turned their heads elsewhere. Although they were curious, they understood well that they couldn't withstand the Dark King's icy gaze.

"You see, they didn't see anything," Yang Chen grinned mischievously.

Rose could only helplessly shake her head at her lover's antics, playfully punching his chest a few times. "The computer systems here have been fully set up. We can officially begin using various monitoring devices. We're planning to visit the training room now, where I've selected a group of elite fighters who are currently undergoing training with the Seahawk team members. Are you coming, darling?"

Yang Chen nodded. He was quite familiar with the Seahawk team's capabilities, so he wasn't particularly interested. However, since Rose was eager, he didn't mind accompanying her.

The training room was on the second floor of the apartment, with the entire floor's walls opened up to create a room resembling a dojo, complete with bright lights and high-quality wooden flooring.

As Yang Chen and Rose entered, a burly figure suddenly rushed towards them!

Yang Chen swiftly stepped forward, extending his hand and effortlessly redirecting the momentum, spinning the burly man around and stabilizing him on the ground.

Dressed in a blue martial arts uniform, the tall figure was a promising member of the Red Bauhinia Society, trembling slightly with excitement upon realizing it was Yang Chen and Rose. He respectfully took three steps back and bowed, greeting them, "Good day, Mr. Yang! Hello, President!"

Yang Chen nodded and glanced towards the center of the training ground. Dressed in blue uniforms were the new recruits of the Hongjing Society, all talented fighters who needed professional guidance to break through their existing skill levels.

Among them were only two members of the Sea Eagle team, clad in white martial arts uniforms. One was a black team member with braided hair, and the other was Adelin, the woman who claimed she wanted to lose weight.

Adelin, who had just sent a burly man flying, was now in loose-fitting martial arts attire that seemed a bit tight on her Caucasian frame. Her figure was curvaceous and alluring, drawing attention. Seeing Yang Chen enter, she smiled and greeted, "Lord Ming, Miss Rose, my apologies for the excessive force."

Yang Chen wryly smiled and replied, "Adelin, don't use the Sea Eagle team's training methods on them. Their foundation is only at the level of ordinary special forces. You just need to slightly surpass them in strength and speed, focusing on training their skills. Strength and speed will require long-term development."

"Alright, men, let's continue," Adelin said in halting Yanxia dialect to several male members.

Yang Chen sighed inwardly at Adelin's words, while Rose sensed something amiss and playfully pinched Yang Chen's waist, saying, "Always getting carried away with your thoughts."

Meanwhile, the eight fresh members of the Hongjing Society rushed forward to spar with Adelin. She effortlessly dodged their punches and kicks, almost instantly incapacitating them with her superior combat skills. They lay on the ground, temporarily unable to continue fighting.

Rose looked on with surprise. She knew the fighting prowess of her subordinates well, but she hadn't expected Adelin, a mere woman by comparison, to possess such terrifying skills. Rose had thought herself among the top women fighters, but now she realized she wouldn't last three moves against Adelin.

And yet, Adelin was just an ordinary member of the Sea Eagles. What about their captain, Morin, and his superiors, the leaders of the Sea Eagles? What kind of strength did they possess?

This was the combat capability of the world's top mercenaries, truly terrifying!

Adelin looked at the young men rolling on the ground and sighed, "If I used my true strength, you'd all be dead by now."

Her Yanxia dialect was quite standard, enough to make the male members who heard it feel like seeking death after being beaten all morning.

Rose turned to Yang Chen, who was beside her, smiling quietly. "Husband, how much of a difference is there between you and Adelin?"

In Rose's eyes, Yang Chen's skills must surely surpass Adelin's by a considerable margin. Yet now, seeing Adelin's speed and strength, she couldn't help but wonder what the outcome would be if Yang Chen sparred with her.

Yang Chen grinned. "Darling, it seems you still don't quite understand what I've told you before."

"What do you mean?" Rose asked, puzzled.

"Different worlds have no basis for comparison," Yang Chen shook his head with a smile, walking forward. He addressed the somewhat bored Adelin and the other black team member, "Both of you, come at me for a spar."

Adelin and the black team member looked at each other in surprise. Adelin, who had been confident just moments ago, hesitantly asked, "Lord Ming, do you really mean that?"

"No need to ask further. Use all your strength, spare no effort, and attack me without holding back," Yang Chen replied firmly.

Adelin and the black team member nodded at each other and suddenly emitted a chilling aura. Their carefree expressions faded, transforming Adelin from her youthful and carefree appearance into a cold and sharp sword-like figure!

Watching from a distance, Rose and all the members of the Hongjing Society held their breath, witnessing the transformation in the arena. They suddenly realized that this was the true face of the Sea Eagle team members! Their usual ease and humor were merely surface appearances!

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

As Adelin and the black team member moved, the air filled with the sound of arrows cutting through space. Their movements blurred before Rose and the others' eyes.

There was a muffled sound in the air, as if an explosion had been contained within a small area!

Yang Chen seemed to stand motionless in his original position, merely tilting his body slightly to the side, then back again.

"Bang! Bang!"

In the bewildered eyes of everyone present, Adelin and the black team member had just moved beside Yang Chen when they were suddenly repelled like rebounding steel bullets, tumbling and falling three meters away!

No one could see clearly what Yang Chen had done!

Standing in place, Yang Chen clapped his hands lightly and calmly said to Rose and the members of the Hongjing Society, "No need to be surprised. Everyone has their own realm in this world. I was just playing around with Adelin and the others. I have no interest in seriously fighting them. They are just your trainers. If you can't beat them, don't worry, because you're not in the same world as them. So, train well. You only need to defeat those in your own world to be the strongest."

Regardless of whether the members of the Hongjing Society took in Yang Chen's words, Rose's eyes showed a hint of excitement. Though she knew Yang Chen was certainly stronger than Adelin, she hadn't expected that Adelin, whom she had considered formidable, would still be no match for Yang Chen.

"Men may feel unwilling when their beloved women are stronger than them, but women always hope their men are the strongest. That's why Rose deeply felt satisfaction.

Adelin and the black team member, getting up from the ground not far away, looked at Yang Chen with a sense of powerlessness and fervent admiration in their eyes.

"Lord Ming, couldn't you go a little easier? The floor here is too hard," Adelin said softly.

"Aren't you trying to lose weight? Maybe a fall will flatten some of that flesh," Yang Chen teased with a playful smile.

Adelin blushed and stuck out her tongue, saying nothing more.

Yang Chen walked over to Rose and affectionately patted her cheek. "Don't look at me being silly. I have something important to discuss with you."

Rose snapped out of her thoughts and asked hesitantly, "What is it?"

"Something that will make you money," Yang Chen winked at her.
