Cao Kun rushed downstairs.

I just stepped out of the Kunlun Capital Building.

He immediately spotted a jet-black Hongqi state ceremonial vehicle parked quietly at the main entrance of the building.

That was a top-of-the-line car that ordinary people could only see on the evening news.

The long, wide body lines and the red flag emblem fluttering in the wind exude an innate sense of majesty and dominance.

Sunlight shone on the smooth, mirror-like black paint, exuding a dignified and imposing presence.

Have you ever seen a car purchase where you not only have to verify your funds, but also undergo a political review, and even have your ancestors traced back three generations?

The Red Flag is a must-have state gift!

This car itself is a symbol of power!

Cao Kun's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

He calmed himself down and continued walking.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered a slender elderly man standing with his hands behind his back beside the car door.

The old man was about fifty or sixty years old.

He had a square face that exuded authority even without anger, white hair at the temples, and eyes as sharp as an eagle's, as if he could see right through people's hearts.

There was another person standing next to the old man, chatting happily with him.

"Little Li?"

Cao Kun was completely stunned.

Xiao Li is usually so unassuming, when did he become so awesome?

How could he chat and laugh so easily with such a big shot?!

Cao Kun suppressed his shock and quickly walked up to the two of them.

When Xiao Li saw the boss come down in person, he quickly introduced the two of them:

"Boss, this is a friend I met in a stock trading group."

We all respectfully call him Brother Long.

"Brother Long, this is Cao Kun, the chairman of Kunlun Capital."

The old man's sharp eyes sized Cao Kun up and down.

A moment later, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and nodded at Cao Kun:

"Mr. Cao, I have long admired your name. My name is Xu Guolong, and I come from the capital."

From the capital.

The moment those four words were uttered so casually, Cao Kun's heart skipped a beat.

He understood all too well the meaning that the sentence carried in that context.

The power behind someone who can ride in such a high-class car and introduce themselves in such a tone is absolutely terrifying.

However, Cao Kun is still unsure of Brother Long's true intentions and cannot determine whether the other party is friend or foe, so he remains on guard.

Just then, Xu Guolong seemed to see through his thoughts.

He smiled slightly and extended his hand to Cao Kun:

"Chairman Cao, there's no need to be so nervous."

Xu Guolong's voice was sincere. He pointed to Xiao Li beside him and smiled:

"Xiao Li and I chatted online for a long time, and we became friends despite our age difference."

Since you're Xiao Li's boss, then we're naturally friends.

I heard you've encountered some difficulties, so I'm here today to help. I absolutely have no other intentions.

Hearing this, Cao Kun finally felt relieved.

Xu Guolong made his point so clear that, as the saying goes, "a sedan chair needs people to carry it," so Cao Kun naturally couldn't keep up his airs any longer.

He quickly grasped Xu Guolong's hand tightly and said warmly:

"Mr. Xu, you flatter me. You can just call me Xiao Cao."

Your presence is a great honor for Kunlun Capital.

If you don't mind, please come to my office upstairs so I can properly show you some hospitality.

Xu Guolong did not refuse and readily agreed: "Okay, then I'll take the trouble to bother you."

The two arrived at the chairman's office and took their seats as host and guest, respectively.

Cao Kun took out his treasured mother tree Da Hong Pao tea and brewed a cup for Xu Guolong.

Xu Guolong picked up the teacup, brought it to his nose, and gently smelled it. A look of enjoyment appeared on his face as he praised it:

"What excellent tea! Such a fine thing is something we rarely get to drink, even at work."

Cao Kun astutely noticed the word "unit".

A thought flashed through his mind, and taking advantage of the moment while pouring tea, he tentatively asked:

"Mr. Xu, may I ask... which unit in Beijing do you currently belong to?"

"Haha, since I've taken the liberty of calling you Little Cao..."

Then you shouldn't keep calling me Mr. Xu; it sounds too formal.

Just call me Brother Long, like Xiao Li does.

Xu Guolong put down his teacup, smiled at Cao Kun, and said meaningfully:

"As for which unit I work for, that's actually not important."

Just know that I came here today specifically to help you.

Cao Kun put down the teapot: "Help me?"

"Yes." Xu Guolong nodded, his tone flat.

"Before I came, I had already given instructions to the joint investigation team to go back directly."

Don't worry, they won't bother you again.

Cao Kun: "..."

Although Battelle had previously reported the investigation team's withdrawal.

But even now, hearing Xu Guolong admit that it was his doing, Cao Kun was still extremely shocked.

Xu Guolong picked up his teacup to moisten his throat and continued his introduction:

"In fact, this incident was caused by the head of the He family using his family connections to persuade a high-ranking leader."

But don't worry, this matter is over and there will be no further developments.

Cao Kun's eyelids twitched suddenly.

The information revealed in these words completely matched the information he had previously obtained from Romina!

Such a high-level investigation was shut down with just a single sentence.

The power behind this Brother Long is clearly even more terrifying than that of the He family!

Cao Kun cautiously probed, "So you represent...?"

"Hey, hold on, I'm nobody."

I just happened to be passing by today and wanted to drop by some online friends.

Don't talk nonsense.

Xu Guolong quickly waved his hand, interrupting Cao Kun, with a cryptic smile on his face.

Cao Kun was startled.

Now that things have come to this point, it's as clear as day who this "Brother Long" represents.

Cao Kun smiled knowingly and smoothly changed the subject:

"Hey, Brother Long, if you like this Da Hong Pao tea..."

When you leave later, I'll have someone give you a few extra pounds to take home and enjoy slowly.

"Hey, hey, stop, stop! Don't try that on me."

Xu Guolong immediately straightened his face and refused very seriously, saying, "Don't make me break the rules."

Cao Kun was stunned, his hand holding the teapot frozen in mid-air.
