You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

Snapped.

That snap of the fingers was as crisp as the Grim Reaper's scythe slicing through the air.

next moment.

The whole world was plunged into an abyss of darkness.

"Buzz—"

A multi-million dollar top-of-the-line lighting system went on strike in an instant.

The 108-story Ye's Group Building, the commercial heart of Jiangcheng, stopped beating at this moment.

The meeting room was instantly swallowed up by pitch-black darkness and deathly silence.

"what!"

"What's going on?!"

"A power outage? Impossible! What about the backup power supply!"

After a brief silence came screams and chaos that completely spiraled out of control.

Those usually high-ranking executives of the group were now like quails locked in a cage, fear instantly gripping their hearts.

Someone accidentally knocked over a water glass, someone fell off a chair, and the sounds of tables and chairs colliding were particularly jarring in the darkness.

Ye Qingcheng's heart sank suddenly.

Her phoenix eyes, which always held a scrutinizing and icy gaze, contracted sharply in the darkness.

out of control!

This was a feeling she had never experienced since she took the helm of the Ye Group!

This building is her kingdom; every inch of space is under her absolute control.

But now, this man has taken everything from her with just a snap of his fingers!

"Jack! Activate the emergency plan immediately!"

Ye Qingcheng's voice remained calm, but the slight tremor betrayed the turmoil within her heart.

"FUCK!"

Jack's furious roar echoed from the darkness.

He frantically pressed the intercom on his tactical vest, but only a deathly static came through.

"Communications have been cut off! All channels have been blocked!"

His bodyguards were also thrown into disarray. Some tried to pull the heavy solid wood door, only to find that the electronic lock was already locked and too heavy to budge.

The elevator is out of service.

The access control system is malfunctioning.

Communication is interrupted.

This steel fortress, which cost tens of millions of US dollars to build, was transformed into an isolated island within forty seconds!

Just when everyone was shrouded in fear and despair.

"Buzz..."

The huge projection screen at the front of the conference room suddenly lit up.

The soft light instantly drew everyone's attention.

The screen, which was originally displaying the quarterly financial report PowerPoint presentation, now only showed a huge, smug smiley face emoji drawn with the simplest lines.

(￣ ▽ ￣)

Followed by.

A chilling melody emanated from the top-of-the-line surround sound system in the conference room.

"Two tigers, two tigers, running fast..."

A cheerful yet eerie children's song echoed in the deathly silence of the darkness.

Every note was like a resounding slap across Jack and Ye Qingcheng's faces!

This is not an attack.

This is a joke!

It was a blatant humiliation, like a cat playing with a mouse!

Jack's face, swollen to a deep liver color, distorted like a demon in the dim light of the screen.

His proud military-grade technology and the glory he brought from the Navy SEALs were crushed into powder at this moment!

Ye Qingcheng's body trembled slightly, and her face was deathly pale.

She was a formidable force in the business world, capable of bankrupting her rivals with a single glance.

Faced with this unpredictable technological attack, all her skills and power seemed so pale and powerless.

in the dark.

The only source of light came from the screen of Lin Chen's old cell phone.

The faint light illuminated his calm face, and there was not a ripple in his deep eyes, as if he had only done a trivial thing.

Looking at the ugly behavior of the group of people in front of him, he felt somewhat bored and raised his hand again.

Snapped!

Another snap of the fingers.

It was as if the creator god had pressed the restart button.

The lights in the entire conference room instantly returned to their bright state.

The eerie nursery rhyme came to an abrupt end.

The smiley face emojis on the projection screen disappeared, and it reverted to dry financial data.

The air conditioning system is operating normally, delivering fresh, cool air.

Everything has returned to normal.

It felt as if that hellish minute had just passed was nothing more than an absurd nightmare.

But those short sixty seconds completely shattered the pride and understanding of everyone present!

The meeting room was deathly silent.

All the executives seemed to have had their souls ripped out, sitting there blankly.

The way they looked at Lin Chen was a mixture of awe and fear, as if they were looking at a monster that could not be understood by common sense.

Jack's tall frame froze on the spot, his face ashen.

He slowly lowered his proud head, no longer daring to meet Lin Chen's gaze.

Lost.

They were utterly humiliated.

Ye Qingcheng pressed her red lips tightly together, her chest heaving violently.

She looked at the man who was still sitting lazily in the chair, and the contempt and sarcasm in her eyes were gone.

Instead, there was a deep sense of dread, horror, and a hint of curiosity that she herself was unaware of.

Who exactly is this man?

Lin Chen slowly put his phone away, tucked it back into his pocket, and stood up from his chair.

He ignored the executives and bodyguards who were already stunned and walked straight up to Ye Qingcheng.

He looked down at the Queen of Jiangcheng, a playful smile curving his lips.

"Now."

"Can we have a proper talk about that death notice letter, Mr. Ye?"
