Chapter 256 Chapter 255: Bonds and worries, grabbing the cake [Please subscribe]
As the contracting party, Chen Xuan can also initiate the termination of the contract.
But if you want to terminate the contract, you still need the consent of the other party.
Making this decision was not a random move, but the result of careful consideration.
And it's also a little test.
The performance of the devotee reminded him.
Relying too much on contracts is not necessarily a good thing.
If one day these contracts signed with the soul suddenly lose their binding force.
Will his men still work for him honestly?
This question was something he had always ignored, or was avoiding subconsciously.
So he wanted to see what changes would happen if he took the initiative to terminate Ophelia's contract.
Although there was a hint of doubt about the contract.
But Chen Xuan didn't intend to bother others and stop eating because of choking.
Because no matter from which point of view, the contract is the best means to maintain dominance.
Moreover, when he was studying in the field of [Time Slow Travel], he also learned that the application of contracts is very common in the Naroa continent.
Both the royal family and the nobles of major cities will enter into contracts.
Just to maintain the power of different noble families, the contracts they sign are usually not too harsh.
They are basically equal-level contracts, rather than unilaterally suppressed slave contracts.
After the contract is concluded, the cooperation between the two parties has an additional layer of guarantee.
Don't worry about your subordinates being incited to rebel or suddenly betraying you.
To a large extent, it can ensure the stability of the relationship between the two parties.
The types and methods of contracting are flexible.
It depends on the demands of both parties.
For example, Chen Xuan chose to enter into a slave contract in order to maintain absolute control.
Now he is beginning to reflect and try to find a new direction.
Faced with Chen Xuan's calm invitation to terminate the contract.
Ophelia's heart, which was gradually melting in grief, suddenly fluctuated again.
There was an expression of disbelief on her face, as if she had seen something impossible.
"Master...you..."
She looked at Chen Xuan in surprise with tears in her eyes.
The latter just smiled back.
After hesitating for a moment, Ophelia shook her head.
"I am willing to maintain a bond with you."
With that, she unilaterally dispersed the light contract to terminate the contract.
"This is probably the only thing I have now."
"I can't accept leaving alone."
Her tone was a little sad.
Under the despairing sadness, the most suffocating thing is the feeling of loneliness.
Ophelia, who knew nothing, regarded the fetters of the contract as the last straw to maintain her thoughts.
So she chose to refuse to terminate the contract!
This situation was beyond Chen Xuan's expectation, but it seemed reasonable after thinking about it carefully.
Although the contract is mandatory, it still represents a trust and bond.
Besides, Chen Xuan has never been strict with his subordinates.
As long as you live up to his instructions, you can even get benefits.
Ophelia was able to break through to the silver level in a short period of time because of him.
Under such circumstances, becoming Chen Xuan's contracted slave is not unacceptable.
After passing this superficial barrier, she made her own choice.
Just when Chen Xuan wanted to say something to comfort her.
Ophelia suddenly raised her head firmly and looked directly into his eyes.
The four eyes faced each other, and countless thoughts and emotions collided in an instant.
The invisible impact of emotions is like the Big Bang.
"Hug me."
"Okay?"
A voice sounded like a request.
The next moment, two warm lips touched together.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Xuan took Ophelia's hand and quietly appeared and left the river bank.
They didn't go any further, they just kissed each other deeply.
It’s different from Kitten Girl Rebecca’s repaying feelings.
Ophelia's emotion towards him is more like a transfer of spiritual sustenance.
The resulting attachment gave Chen Xuan a different feeling in his heart.
Although I didn't take advantage of the situation to go further, everything will fall into place sooner or later.
After returning to DKBA, Ophelia regained some energy.
Chen Xuan asked her to have a good night's rest first.
Tomorrow morning I will go to the original Asia Pacific City, which is now the training ground.
20 masters were selected from among the Magatan conscripts who were being trained.
They will later assist Chen Xuan to sneak into Ba'an City and capture Wu Lepa, the commander-in-chief of the KNU Alliance.
After explaining all this, he flashed into the room where he arrived.
This is the shuttle point he prepared just for himself.
There is someone waiting outside.
Standing in the living room, the void passage has not dissipated.
This channel can maintain one in and one out.
After he passed through, he returned to the warehouse in Tianhai City.
The void shuttle channel slowly dissipated and disintegrated.
Looking at the warehouse filled with bicycles and accessories, smelling the air full of rubber.
Chen Xuan always felt that it was a bit unreal.
This is probably a side effect of frequent shuttles.
Myawadi, which was still in a humid climate one moment, returned to Tianhai City the next second.
Two places, two roles, but the same Chen Xuan.
After changing into a spare set of clothes, he had no intention of staying in the warehouse longer and chose to leave in a hurry.
After locking the warehouse door, Chen Xuan drove his newly purchased S90 sedan on the way back.
After following the traffic onto the elevated highway, he could see the bright lights of the city through the car window.
The elevated road is like a long dragon, winding its way into the city.
Seen from a distance, the street lights form the long body of the city.
It makes people feel insignificant.
And this is just one of the many elevated roads in Tianhai City.
If cities are alive, then Tianhai City is definitely a behemoth.
I don’t know if he was infected by Ophelia’s sadness.
Suddenly he also became a little sentimental.
When Chen Xuan parked the car in the roadside parking space of the rental community, it was already 10:30 pm in Xiaguo time.
Too lazy to go out to look for food again, Chen Xuan was ready to go back and take a bite.
While driving, he suddenly had a cowardly thought.
That is to give up the Naroa continent.
No longer pay attention to the disturbances of demonic disasters, and no longer explore the mysterious and unknown world.
Only the woman beside him is left.
Use the huge wealth in your hands to buy an island overseas and become a rich man who has nothing to do with the world.
Something seemed to temporarily kill his desire to explore and win, making him long for ordinaryness and stability.
But in the end, this idea only circulated in my mind for a moment and then disappeared.
Facing a vast and extraordinary road, he would not allow himself to retreat halfway, at least not yet.
Sitting in the car, he silently did some mental construction for himself, and it was not until more than ten minutes later that he opened the door.
As soon as he got out of the car, with his hand still on the edge of the door, he saw a taxi approaching in a hurry and parked in the empty space next to it.
Then, the back door of the car opened, and a slim figure wearing a Lian family skirt uniform walked out.
This figure closed the car door and looked at Chen Xuan, suddenly startled.
"Eh..."
"Chen Xuan, what a coincidence!"
The taxi hurried away, and Lin Qiang with a tired look on her face greeted him.
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
"Have you just gotten off work?"
Chen Xuan quickly came to his senses, smiled, and pushed gently with his hand on the car door.
At this time, Lin Qiang keenly saw the new car behind him.
"Yes, I met some difficult customers today."
"I traveled to several places."
At this point, she paused for a while before continuing.
"Is this new car behind you...?"
There are so many luxury cars in Tianhai City.
Just standing on the street for a few minutes, you can see many luxury cars.
Under such circumstances, Volvo's S90 sedan is not too eye-catching.
However, its price of more than 400,000 yuan can be regarded as a small-middle-class car in the city.
She also heard about Chen Xuan's previous income.
If you live frugally every year, you can save about 80,000 to 100,000 yuan after expenses.
It took four years of working income to barely save the full payment for this car.
Moreover, this is a new car that has not yet been registered, and the paintwork has a brand new shine even under the street lights.
"Thank you."
"I bought this car new."
Chen Xuan stretched out his arms and said casually.
He is in a normal mood now and has no interest in standing out.
Lin Qiang is a smart woman and a mature beauty.
But Chen Xuan has a preconceived prejudice against her.
He always felt that Lin Qiang was too frivolous.
Therefore, he didn't bother to explain anything more in this regard.
I don’t want to go out of my way to emphasize my current state.
After a few casual answers, he took out his keys and locked the car.
Then he took the first step and walked slowly towards the entrance of the community.
Lin Qiang followed him subconsciously, like a colleague who happened to be coming home from get off work together.
He does not mean that.
Seeing Chen Xuan, who used to squeeze into the subway and take the bus every day, he suddenly bought a new car.
A strong curiosity and desire to find out arose in her heart.
"Have you made a fortune recently?"
"Is it a bonus for being brave?"
Lin Qiang asked in a gossipy tone.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile helplessly.
"I didn't die gloriously, so how could I get such a generous bonus?"
As we all know, there are bonuses for those who act bravely for justice, but they are usually not too high.
It ranges from several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan.
Such high bonuses are often awarded by companies or society to those who save lives.
Hearing what he said, Lin Qiang let out a soft "Oh" and became more and more curious.
But it is undoubtedly impolite to continue to ask.
So she changed the subject again.
"Did you go to apply for a job at Lian's house this morning?"
Lin Qiang originally thought he was going to apply for a job, but now that she saw him buying a car, she was a little unsure.
You already have money to buy a car, but you still need to rush to find a job?
Chen Xuan walked in front with his hands in his pockets. His tall and straight posture and strong body tempered by magic elements made his figure particularly eye-catching under the street lights.
Extraordinary brings not only powerful power, but also temperament that changes at the same time.
This is a subtle change.
"No, I'm here to rent a house."
"Your Lianjia's service is not bad."
He turned around and didn't mean to hide it.
However, the expression on Lin Qiang's face suddenly changed, and she seemed to think of something.
Even the pace slowed down a bit.
But she soon came to her senses and followed quickly.
"Rent?"
"Do you want to move from here?"
Chen Xuan stopped a little strangely and glanced at her with his head tilted.
He heard a hint of surprise and eagerness in Lin Qiang's tone.
Nodding casually, he added.
"Rented a big house."
"I registered a trading company some time ago."
"There are already intended orders from overseas."
"And I also got an investment."
Anyway, Lin Qiang is not official. Man, it’s okay to mess around with progress and stuff.
It can take as short as three days or as long as one week, until the company personnel are in place and the import and export qualification procedures are completed.
Sulapei will ask his tool man to issue an import list to Lanna Trading Company in the name of the Burmese dealer, and then go through the process to finalize the quotation. The other party will make the payment and Chen Xuan will deliver the goods.
So when he said this to Lin Qiang now, it was not a lie.
"Oh..."
Lin Qiang said "Oh" again, a typical cold response.
In fact, she didn't know what to say at all.
The contrast between before and after is too great.
The Chen Xuan in her mind was completely different from the Chen Xuan at this moment.
People's fate is too magical.
In the big city of Tianhai, maybe a few months can change a person's destiny.
At this moment, Lin Qiang felt a trace of regret in her heart.
"If I had known, I would have..."
After all, she has been a neighbor for a few years, and she is also a woman with an exquisite mind.
How could she not know the trace of desire mixed in Chen Xuan's eyes once looked at her.
But now, his eyes have become particularly clear.
This seems to indirectly confirm his changes.
On the contrary, it made Lin Qiang feel a little uncomfortable.
If I had known that he was a potential stock, why would I have had fun with those guys?
Seeing that she fell silent, Chen Xuan didn't say anything more.
He was thinking about the defense layout of Magtan City.
That was the safe zone in another world he had planned in his mind, and it was also the first nail he drove into Naroa.
At the very least, construction must be carried out on a giant city scale.
Go the route of a fortified battle fortress rather than an open trading city-state.
There is much to think about.
He plans to contact an architectural design institute in the near future and entrust a design project.
Lin Qiang, who was walking behind Chen Xuan, thought of Li Qiaoqian at this time.
She already knew who rented the villa with a quarterly rent of one million yuan.
Thinking of Li Qiaoqian's hesitant expression in the living room in the afternoon, she suddenly realized something.
Recalling her warnings and reminders at noon, my sudden mood turned into resentment.
"What a scheming idea!"
"She's afraid that I'll steal the man from her!"
A piece of cake is placed here, and when no one is trying to snatch it, she doesn't care too much.
But if a guy comes out to grab the food, the value of the cake will instantly change.
Lin Qiang now has a bit of a cake-eating mentality.
But she still couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Chen Xuan's identity change was too rapid.
She needs some time to sort herself out.
However, Chen Xuan's mind was not focused on this at all.
woman?
He certainly has none.
...
The necessary supporting character plot is to flesh out the character.
In my design, the character of the protagonist is by no means static.
He will continue to grow and change as he experiences it.
As for the various female or male supporting roles, there is no need to worry about being cliché.
This world is inherently facialized.
But supporting characters are sometimes clichéd, which doesn’t necessarily mean that the protagonist has to be clichéd as well.
