Chapter 58 - Chapter 57 Christine's Attack

As soon as the two entered Christine's home, they embraced at the door, and Christine responded with equal fervor. Like dry tinder meeting a raging fire, they moved from the doorway to the sofa, and then to the bed. Their whispers turned into passionate cries that echoed endlessly, like waves crashing one after another, ceaseless and profound.

Three hours later, both had calmed down. Christine bit Lan Luo on the chest and said, "It's always like this. We said we'd go easy, but now I can barely get out of bed."

Lan Luo just shrugged and said, "You weren't saying that at the time. Your voice was much louder than mine, you know."

Hearing this, Christine felt a little embarrassed and retorted, "That's all your fault!" The thought of it always lasting three hours made her legs go weak.

"Darling, why did you rush to see me this time?" Christine then asked Lan Luo the reason, as he usually only came to see her after work.

Lan Luo took out a magic ring and a necklace: "These are my gifts to you. Let me put them on for you." The necklace stood out beautifully against her fair skin, and paired with the magic ring, it looked even more noble and mysterious.

When Christine put on the necklace and the ring, the immediate clarity in her mind made her realize these were no ordinary items: "Darling, what are these? They feel so magical."

"These are magical creations. The ring can store items, teleport, and project. It's all controlled by your mind. You can use it like a mobile phone," Lan Luo patiently explained. At present, Lan Luo hadn't had time to develop the ring further; otherwise, the world's mobile phones would be obsolete.

"That's truly incredible. I mean, I've never heard of magical creations," Christine said with wonder.

Hearing this, Lan Luo knew it was time to tell her: "Christine, this world is very dangerous. That's why I used to work in the hospital; I needed a public identity. When I finished researching this magic ring, I didn't want to work anymore, but instead to study other different knowledge. Actually, we have plenty of money now, but not enough influence. So I invite you to be the CEO of our company. My recent research findings can regrow severed limbs, and even regenerate disfigured faces."

Christine was deeply moved by this, as she knew how immense the profits would be. To entrust such a large company to someone who had never managed one before: "But I've never done anything like this. I'm afraid I won't do well and will betray your trust."

"Darling, I'm not really interested in money. You've seen the magic ring. If I released it, along with my limb regeneration technology, I would immediately become one of the wealthiest people in the world, but I haven't done that, have I?" Lan Luo didn't think much of it. Having the power to protect everything, that was what truly mattered.

Christine then remembered: "So what are you going to do? Are you not going to manage the company?"

"I need to go study magic. That place is called Kamar-Taj. It is Earth's guardian, defending against invasions from the Dark Dimension for thousands of years. The fact that we are still living well is due to their silent sacrifices." Lan Luo put on a tragic persona at this point, hoping her reaction would be milder when she saw Helen Zhao.

He was never as promiscuous as Tony, discarding women at will. In this world, Lan Luo only had these two women; he didn't know about the future, but he wouldn't be as promiscuous as Tony. Maya could attest to that.

Christine also exclaimed, "Until today, I didn't know magic existed. If it wasn't you telling me this, I'd think the world had gone mad. And then you tell me you're going to study in the Wizarding World to protect Earth. You need to let me process this; it's all happening too fast."

Lan Luo then kissed her: "Have you processed it?"

Christine covered her chest with the quilt: "What are you trying to do?"

Lan Luo pounced on her again. Her long, beautiful legs, peach-like figure, and alluring scent made him unable to resist. Three hours later: "Have you processed it now?"

Lan Luo was met only with a weak punch: "Why is it always like this?"

"Everything I said is true. You should resign from your job tomorrow. You know, our company doesn't even have a name yet," Lan Luo said helplessly.

"Oh, my God, you don't even have a company yet, and you want me to be CEO?" Christine said, a little angry, feeling like she had been tricked by a big liar.

Lan Luo went over and stroked her smooth back, saying, "Actually, I never wanted to start a company before, because we don't lack money, and you know the power of magic. But in the future, we will need to conduct more in-depth research, and a strong company will be faster for a lot of research equipment and personnel. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even thought of starting a company."

Hearing Lan Luo's words, Christine understood why he was so unconcerned: "OK, I'll do my best. If that serum is really as you say, I believe the company can reach around a hundred billion in a short time." After putting on the necklace, the neurons in her brain were now extremely active.

"I'll only feel at ease with you in charge of the company. Our next research step is the Super Soldier Serum. I'm sure you've heard of it," Lan Luo said, specifically giving Christine a chance to show off her knowledge.

"Captain America, whose real name is Steve Rogers, was born on July 4, 1918, in Brooklyn, New York, USA. He was originally a frail young soldier who, after being transformed by the US Government, became a 'Super Soldier' with physical abilities far beyond those of ordinary people. He was also given a shield made of vibranium, one of the hardest metals in the world, by the US Government, and led the Invaders to achieve great victories in World War II. Later, in an operation at the end of World War II, Captain America engaged in a fierce battle with his nemesis, Red Skull, and fell into the ocean, where he was frozen," Christine recounted Captain America's deeds as if they were household tales. This story was even in textbooks in America.

"Indeed, he was frozen. What I'm going to tell you next is that Captain America isn't dead. Do you believe me?" Lan Luo teased.

Christine immediately said, "Darling, that joke isn't funny."

Lan Luo, however, said with utmost seriousness, "After being frozen while under the effects of the Super Soldier Serum, Captain America can be revived, and his appearance will still be as it was when he was frozen."

Christine then said, a little unsettled, "Are you telling the truth?"

Lan Luo just nodded and said, "I have no reason to lie to you. I've already sent people to rescue Captain America. You know, if I were lying, there would be no need to make up such an exaggerated story."

"So, everything you're saying is serious?" Christine asked, sitting up in bed.

"I think it's quite obvious, and I want to replicate the Super Soldier Serum. That could bring us enormous profits and unparalleled influence." In fact, Lan Luo and his four-person research team could easily replicate the Super Soldier Serum. His eyes could easily analyze molecular formulas, and the main thing was the time and experimentation required for replication. If assisted by AI for calculations, it might not only succeed but also advance further.
