"After all, you are too busy." The driver responded.

"Then I won't go to the Chamber of Commerce today."

Ningguang nodded and gave a casual instruction, then crossed her hands on her thighs covered with thin flesh-colored stockings and closed her eyes slightly.

The driver, who understood the situation, gestured to the bodyguards in other cars and drove steadily towards the villa in Yokohama.

After a while, the driver drove into the courtyard of the villa and stopped in front of the inner door of the villa separately from the bodyguard.

She had just turned off the engine when Ningguang's slightly tired voice rang out.

"Reached?"

"We're already here, President."

After that, the driver came to the back seat, opened the door, and stretched out his hand to cover the door frame.

Ningguang nodded slightly, got out of the car and looked towards the strange villa, but her eyes quickly moved away from the villa and looked at the villa gate on the steps.

Because at this moment, a handsome young man was looking at him with a smile at the door.

"Moren...?"

Looking at the figure she had seen in the photo, Ningguang couldn't help but feel slightly dazed.

From selling fruits in the coastal city of Xinming, to coming to Japan, which had just become District 11, with his meager savings, to establishing the Liyue Chamber of Commerce and becoming a representative of the pro-Imperial faction in District 11...

Ningguang's life has always been talked about with relish, and she is regarded as a legend by many people in District 11.

千:!';寻'.小";'说'中.转'!裙!2:?."5!;.5?5:,"9"5,3.;:0;,.0但是即使是这样的凝光也有着自己的遗憾,那就是她在这个世界上已经没有了任何的血亲。

But what Ningguang didn't expect was that more than a month ago, she suddenly received a piece of news and learned that she actually had a half-brother.

After verifying the truth of the matter, Ningguang could hardly wait to bring her brother to Tokyo.

But when the situation came to a head, he fled abroad with mixed feelings using the Chamber of Commerce's affairs, and only placed his younger brother in the Instinct Academy in Tokyo.

Ningguang originally wanted to slowly get in touch with her brother...but she didn't expect that her momentary escape would almost cause her brother to encounter an accident in the eruption of the Tokyo incident.

Fortunately, her brother was not in any danger, and she has taken him to her side... What if her only blood relative met with an accident because of her...

"President?"

The driver's voice came from beside, waking Ningguang who was lost in thought.

Ningguang came back to her senses and lifted the hair beside her cheek. After nodding to the driver, she looked at Mo Ren: "...Don't wait outside, go in."

As she spoke, she walked into the house with steady steps in her high heels.

But there was a slight fluctuation in my heart.

"I just fell asleep. Is my hair messy? How about my clothes? Are there any wrinkles?"

"…I should have gone to the Chamber of Commerce to sort it out first."

Mo Ren, who had no idea what Ningguang was thinking, looked at the cold-faced woman, nodded indifferently, and followed Ningguang.

"It seems that Ningguang doesn't care much about this blood relative of his. I even stood guard outside the door to play the role of a good younger brother."

"That's right. After all, she is the woman with whom the entire District 11 can be used as a bet in the future."

"A woman like this is simply a tyrant like Cao Cao. It would be strange if she cared about her relatives."

Looking at Ningguang's back in front of him, Mo Ren thought silently.

"Huh? Are you following me?" Feeling the gazes behind her, Ningguang in front of her kept her expression unchanged, but her steps paused slightly.

At this moment, the maid beside her also stepped forward and said to Ningguang respectfully: "President, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat first, or..."

But before she could finish, Ningguang took the lead and walked towards the restaurant, saying without question: "Let's go eat first."

Seeing that Ningguang seemed to be in a different posture, the maid showed a hint of doubt in her eyes, but still stepped back respectfully.

A moment later, at the huge long dining table, Mo Ren and Ning Guang, who were sitting on the left and right of one end of the table, were eating steaks carefully prepared by the empire's top chefs in a frozen atmosphere.

"Well, I have come into contact with Ningguang. It's pretty much as expected. From the initial contact, it seems that Ningguang is not someone who pays much attention to emotions."

As Mo Ren used his dinner knife to cut the steak made of premium Wagyu beef, he subconsciously thought: "So which step should I follow next..."

"...Why isn't he talking?" Ningguang glanced at the silent Mo Ren from the corner of her eye and thought hesitantly: "Is he not used to Western food?"

"That's right. He has been growing up in Xinming and has never been out. He should be used to Chinese food, right? I remember that Liu Maoxing from Juxialou in Xinming is very good at making Chinese food. We might as well invite him over..."

At this moment, Mo Ren finally decided on the role of his public identity. He paused with the knife and fork in his hand and looked up at Ning Guang: "Sister, when are you going to imprison me?"

Chapter 2 Ningguang's Family Dinner.

Hearing the outrageous remarks from her brother, Ningguang, who was drinking red wine, was startled and almost swallowed the wine in her throat.

"Cough cough."

Ningguang put down the wine glass while coughing, picked up the tablecloth beside her and wiped the few drops of liquid from the corner of her mouth, then looked at her brother seriously: "What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Ningguang now suspected that her brother might have encountered something bad while growing up... otherwise why would he blurt out such words!

"You won't imprison me?"

With a slight smile on his face, Mo Ren looked into Ningguang's eyes and said.

"of course not!"

Ningguang said with absolute certainty.

But under Ningguang's gaze, Mo Ren nodded and then shook his head.

"No, sister, you are not in Tokyo, so you don't know the details of Tokyo. At this time, the Tokyo Concession has completely become a hell due to the infection of Honkai energy, and the Instinct Academy is too close to the Concession. Although there are still many survivors in the Instinct Academy compared to the Concession, everyone there, including me, is in potential danger..."

At this point, Mo Ren looked at Ning Guang and said "seriously", "So I think that we should restrict my range of movement and monitor me 24 hours a day to prevent me from becoming a new source of infection."

Mo Ren naturally didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

On the contrary, he was looking for someone who could prove his "innocence" in order to prepare for the possibility of using Moren's identity to insert himself into the plan in the future.

After all, even for this body with little Honkai energy, ordinary people's surveillance would not be of any use and would only become the evidence he needed.

Ningguang, who was one of the few people whose thoughts were distracted and who did not notice the Honkai energy mentioned by Mo Ren, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing what Mo Ren said.

So this imprisonment...

It startled her.

As for the danger that Mo Ren mentioned… Then, contrary to Mo Ren’s expectations, Ningguang, who Mo Ren thought should agree with this proposal, put down the dinner knife in her hand, looked into Mo Ren’s eyes and said, “No, it’s not necessary.”

"I won't let that happen."

"So there's no need to imprison you!"

Hearing Ningguang's emotionally dominated speech, Mo Ren looked at Ningguang with some surprise.

"...It seems that my previous prediction was wrong. My sister doesn't take me lightly as I thought."

"On the contrary, I'm afraid my brother holds a very high status in Ningguang's heart."

Mo Ren's eyes flashed with a smile, and he said like a good boy: "I understand...if this is your decision."

At the same time, Mo Ren thought about it for a while, modified his plan, and said in advance the request that he had not intended to say at the moment: "But sister, I still hope to ask you for one thing."

"I hope you can use the plane to airdrop some survival supplies to the Instinct Academy."

Ningguang, who had just noticed that Mo Ren had been calling her sister, was in a trance for a moment before she came back to her senses. She frowned and said, "Instinct Academy... Um, do you want to help your classmates?"

Ningguang was a little surprised that Mo Ren mentioned the Instinct Academy at this time. After all, when arranging the helicopter for the rescue, Ningguang had considered that her brother might ask to bring his classmates back with him, so she specially arranged for the new model with the largest load capacity that had just been delivered to District 11 by the Empire.

But to Ningguang's surprise, her brother came back alone.

At that time, Ningguang thought that her brother had only been in school for a short time and did not have a close enough relationship with her...but now that the other party brought up this matter on his own initiative, it seemed that this was not the case.

"That's right, sister. Now the Instinct Academy has become the largest gathering place for survivors near the Tokyo Concession. They are very short of supplies and are in great need of outside supplies."

“I hope I can provide them with some help.”

In response to this, Ningguang, who felt that she had gradually regained control of the ridiculous topic, slowly picked up a small piece of beef and put it in her mouth. After chewing it gently and swallowing it, she slowly spoke.

"But you just said that everyone in the Instinct Academy is potentially dangerous. It is foreseeable that most of them will not be released from Tokyo. Although this assistance is not very troublesome, why should I rescue them?"

"My brother's affection, is this not okay?"

Mo Ren said with a smile.

Ningguang's eyes flickered slightly... Well, it is indeed a bit tempting.

But the next moment, Ningguang coughed lightly.

"Well, I, your sister, am a businessman."

"Emotions are not enough to make merchants free."

Having said that, Ningguang deliberately looked at Mo Ren with a friendly business smile.

In response, Mo Ren nodded and said seriously: "——What about the benefits?"

"Benefit?"

"Yes, interests." Mo Ren tapped the table lightly: "The entire Tokyo Concession is currently being occupied. Even the army cannot break into the Tokyo Concession at this time at any cost. This means that the entire Tokyo Concession is now isolated from the outside world."

"But the things in the Tokyo Concession will not disappear because of this. The precious metals in the bank, antiques, even the information in the government building, and even the things in the consulates of various countries..."

"These things have lost their owners now - isn't this benefit big enough? Don't you want them? Sister, no, President Ningguang."

"Oh?" Ningguang looked at Mo Ren with interest: "You mean the Instinct Academy can help me get these things?"

Ningguang finally showed some interest.

Just as Moren said, there are indeed many valuable things in the Tokyo Concession right now. After all, it was once the political and economic center of District 11.

But at the same time, there are quite a few people watching there right now.

It’s just because of the epidemic and the monsters in the center of Tokyo Concession that they have not been able to succeed.

Ningguang is naturally one of them.

...But Ningguang didn't expect that her younger brother would actually take the initiative to propose this to her, and it seemed that this matter did seem feasible.

"Interesting... It seems my brother is more capable than I thought."

Ningguang narrowed her eyes slightly when she thought of this.

Mo Ren, who roughly understood what Ningguang was thinking, said slowly, "At least they have the best chance of getting it, right?"

"All you need to pay is some survival supplies which are not expensive in the outside world."

"Some unimportant supplies can be exchanged for an opportunity."

"... a little naive, but not impossible." Ningguang nodded with satisfaction: "But I always believe that everyone has a starting point for self-interest in their actions. What about you? What can you gain?"

Hearing this question, Mo Ren smiled and said, "I will be very satisfied if I can help my sister."

But in response to this, Ningguang just couldn't help but smile.

She no longer regarded the man in front of her as just a brother who needed care, so she naturally would not be satisfied with these words... well, at least she would not show satisfaction on the surface.

In response, Mo Ren continued without any surprise: "Of course, in order to better help you, I hope you can leave the work of contacting the Instinct Academy to me, Sister Ningguang."

Since the previous attempt to prove his "innocence" was rejected by Ningguang, and it was unexpectedly discovered that Ningguang paid more attention to emotions than expected, the plan can take a leap.

For example, he could start to contact those potential people in Tokyo as an assistant, or even master certain powers as Mo Ren, so as to prepare to become a fuse when necessary.

I don’t know what Mo Ren was thinking, but Ningguang’s heart moved slightly when she heard this.

It can be predicted that if the Instinct Academy can really enter the center of the concession, the things in the concession will bring huge benefits. At that time, the first person who comes into contact with him will naturally be the one who dominates everything.

In Ningguang's opinion, Mo Ren, who took the initiative to propose and asked to take on this job, was naturally eyeing this benefit.

"Heh, it seems that my brother is not someone who would be content to be a rich young master."

"But this is not bad."

Ningguang thought silently.

Ningguang's position meant that her life would not be as easy as that of an ordinary family. She had originally wanted to secretly arrange for Mo Ren to return to Xinming Academy to enjoy life... However, since Mo Ren had shown good abilities, she didn't mind giving Mo Ren a chance.

It doesn’t matter even if I mess up in the end… After all, she is my older sister.

So, after thinking for a moment, Ningguang smiled and said, "Very good, I agree."

"I'll arrange for the Yokohama branch to contact you later."
