Chapter One Thousand and Thirty: The Correct Use of [Scale Scale]
The moment the ability appeared, the participant's power was revealed without any cover-up.
Fangran just took out a card.
"What is that? Is it that kind of magical card again?"
Seeing Fangran's actions and recognizing that the dark card in his hand was the one given to her at Pearl of the Night, Veronica showed a rare curiosity.
Neither was he surrounded instantly, nor was the silver-haired figure behind him holding a gun to his head.
Fangran put the card that was blackened by the [Fantasy Card] between his fingers and put it on the table. Listening to her smiling tone that seemed particularly interested, she asked silently:
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask, aren't you afraid of me doing something to you when we meet directly?"
"Fangran, do you want to do something to me?"
The posture of her exposed shoulders and arms was sexy, and she didn't miss any opportunity. Veronica looked at him with a smile and asked,
Then after seeing Fangran's interesting expression, he smiled and replied while eating slowly:
"Indeed, when facing an object with unknown strange abilities, normally we should avoid direct contact to prevent harm,"
"But, I believe Fangran you wouldn't do that kind of thing,"
"You will neither directly threaten my life with violence, nor use covert means to interfere with my thoughts and actions,"
Looking at her holding a knife and fork while eating, her every move is exquisite and elegant, like an extremely precious painting, revealing the natural nobility accumulated over many years.
"I am convinced of my judgment, so I will meet you directly to show my sincerity,"
"after all..."
Fangran saw those silver-gray eyes shining with a breathtaking brilliance, as if conveying some key message.
"I don't even have the courage to sit down at the gambling table, let alone the chips in my hand."
This sentence was said by the richest man in the world, and it had a very unique feeling. Fangran couldn't help but wonder if this was the courage of rich people...
If it were him, he would definitely not do this.
"And I said I was willing to help you realize your wish. Fangran, you don't have to do anything to me, right?"
Finally, looking at Veronica's confident smile, Fangran felt defeated by her and had to add silently:
"There are everyone among the participants. Don't think they are all like me."
After hearing his reminder, Veronica smiled as if she was very happy and replied:
"Don't worry, it's very difficult to see me in this world. There are only three people including Fang Ran and you who can talk to me like this."
The other two are presidents, right...
He cursed in his heart, but Fangran also knew that although it seemed that he could easily see Veronica, if it were anyone else, let alone whether he would be able to see her.
Maybe she doesn't even know she exists.
"So what exactly is that you pulled out?"
Thinking like this, after hearing Veronica's curious inquiry, Fangran looked at her and answered:
"It's one of my abilities. This card can determine whether the other person's words are true or false."
Then after saying this,
Fangran looked at Veronica's face, which still had that noble and perfect smile. There was no slight change, but she was just a little curious.
"You are really calm."
"I have nothing to panic about. After all, I have never told you a lie to Fangran."
Spreading her hands slightly, Veronica seemed to answer innocently, but Fangran looked at her silently with an expressionless face.
But please reflect on what you have been saying all this time...
"Use this ability, regardless of whether it is true or if you have learned to bluff,"
The white back of her right hand supported her chin. In this posture, Veronica looked elegant and beautiful. She looked at Fangran and said with a smile:
"Anyway, you want to ask if what I want you to do is a bad thing, right?"
She saw through it before he opened his mouth. Once again, he deeply felt how keen the person who ruled an entire financial empire was in this regard. He understood his intentions in an instant.
Fangran was not secretive, activated the [Scale Scale], looked directly into her eyes and asked:
"What's the answer?"
Although he accepted the invitation to go to North America, he still had to make final confirmation before deciding to help Veronica. He could not allow himself to be used in ignorance to commit some evil deeds.
Leaving daily life, he must become his thoughtful self.
"Oh, I know what you are worried about Fangran,"
Facing Fangran's question, Veronica chuckled with no trace of guilt on her face. She looked at him and smiled little by little and expressed his thoughts:
"You must be wondering whether Fiseld is so big that it is secretly involved in some illegal industries, and you are worried that your power will be used for some 'darkness' without knowing it,"
Then he raised a slender finger and gave an example without any concealment.
"For example, drug trafficking."
Activating the [Scale], Fangran was ready to listen to her answer, then picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth elegantly,
"Fangran, do you know the characteristics of drug dealing?"
Although Veronica asked with a chuckle, she didn't want him to answer.
"That is, it cannot bring any production line, any patented technology, any political bargaining chip, nor talent nor development,"
The Queen, who controls the largest capital in the world, watched him tell the truth in an understatement.
"The only thing it can bring is huge profits, absolute huge profits."
Then when she said this, she didn't seem to care, and even sighed helplessly with some annoyance,
"But at Fiseld's level, money is the least valuable to me among all benefits. It is like dust. If left alone, it will gradually increase."
No, you are still talking about...
The moment he heard these words, Fangran was speechless and choked with the words "Hoo! What a good guy". But what made him speechless the most was sensing the result given by the [Scale Scale]...
-【reality】-
Let him not even accuse the other party of Versailles...
"Believe me, Fangran,"
Veronica's silver-gray eyes stared at Fangran, and the words she spoke softly seemed to have power.
"If I want to simply make a profit, Fiseld has a better and more clever way."
-【reality】-
Facing his own question, Fangran heard Veronica chuckle and give a positive answer at this moment,
"So you don't have to worry. What I want you to help with this time is by no means a bad thing. It's better to say it's self-defense."
-【reality】-
"Fiseld's industries in all fields are all reasonable and legal. I have the best and most powerful legal firm in the world."
-【reality】-
"I always feel like your last sentence was very subtle."
The moment he sensed the answer to [Scale Scale], he breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. Fangran picked up the wine glass next to him, looked at her and silently rolled his eyes and complained,
"Is there any?"
With that perfect smile, Veronica looked at his actions and looked at the cards on the table in front of him.
When he brought the cup to his mouth, he suddenly said:
"Fangran, I really want you to be my lover."
"cough--!!!"
Seeing Fangran choke and cough all of a sudden, Veronica pinched her white chin and said with a thoughtful smile:
"The reaction was bigger than expected. It seems that the ability is real. I thought you, Fangran, went to learn conversational skills before you came to see me..."
She wanted to try this red wine, which must have been shockingly expensive, but before she could taste it, she felt the feedback - [real] - from the [scale]. Fangran quickly wiped his mouth and wanted to slap the table and shout at her,
!!!Σ(?Д?!) What did you say when someone was having a drink out of nowhere!?
