Undead Mage with No Skill Cooldown-Chapter 541 - 534: I Mean No Harm

Lu Ran didn’t understand the data collection.

Qin Wuyao was the one making all the decisions.

Even now, Lu Ran felt a bit confused.

He and Qin Wuyao were in the same academy, both known as the academy’s two geniuses.

But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t believe that the emergence of the Data World was because of Qin Wuyao.

It’s just that...

Even Qin Wuyao probably didn’t know exactly what she had done.

In the Data World, Qin Wuyao did not know any of this, not even knowing that she herself was a data-generated entity!

Moreover,

it was impossible for her to know that the development of the Data World would later spiral out of control!

That night,

Ye Hongyi returned home, and as soon as she turned on the lights, she noticed something was off. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Sitting on the sofa in the living room was someone, and as Ye Hongyi looked at the person, the person was also staring at her.

The moment their eyes met,

Lu Ran was shocked.

It really was Ye Hongyi!

Identical!

This woman, who called him brother in the Data World, even in this world, still exuded a strong allure.

She was a woman whose very bones exuded charm.

"Who are you?" Ye Hongyi asked indifferently.

Having said that,

she moved a few steps to the side.

"No need to look, the weapon in the drawer, I took it." Lu Ran glanced at the coffee table in front of him and said.

Ye Hongyi’s heart tightened, and she looked at the coffee table.

Sure enough,

the gun she originally stashed in the drawer was now on the coffee table.

"Are you here to kill me? Who sent you?" Ye Hongyi asked warily.

"Whether you believe it or not, I’m not an enemy; it’s just a precaution against your overreaction that I’ve done this. There are some things I want to discuss with you. Of course, if you don’t want to talk, I can leave at any time. I have no hostility." Lu Ran said casually.

Hmm?

Ye Hongyi looked at Lu Ran with suspicion, as if weighing his words.

Of course, she couldn’t easily trust Lu Ran, but he looked sincere, not like he was lying.

But...

Ye Hongyi clearly didn’t know the guy!

But then again, she met many people in the business field. Not everyone was worth her attention.

It’s normal to meet but not remember some people.

Just as Ye Hongyi was thinking this, Lu Ran directly picked up the gun on the coffee table and walked over to her.

He reached out and handed it to her.

"I truly have no malice. This is yours. If it makes you feel safer to hold it, take it, then we can talk." Lu Ran said.

Ye Hongyi was stunned.

Was this even a way to negotiate?

She reached out to take the gun from Lu Ran, inspecting it thoroughly, even checking the magazine, finding no issues.

The person just handed the weapon back to her so easily.

At the same time, this made Ye Hongyi breathe a sigh of relief.

"I’m intrigued now, so let’s talk." Ye Hongyi nodded and said.

Looking at Ye Hongyi’s demeanor, Lu Ran found himself bemused.

After all, guns had no deterrent effect on him.

But seeing Ye Hongyi like this made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

This was completely different from the Ye Hongyi in the Data World.

Lu Ran sat back down on the sofa.

Ye Hongyi sat across from him, with an extra bottle of red wine in her hand.

"Want some?" Ye Hongyi asked.

"No, not a fan," Lu Ran shook his head.

Ye Hongyi pursed her lips.

She poured herself a glass, sipped it with her crimson lips, and then looked at Lu Ran.

She asked, "Aren’t you going to introduce yourself?"

Lu Ran looked at Ye Hongyi and said, "My name is Lu Ran. Believe it or not, we’re not as unfamiliar as we seem."

What does that mean?

Ye Hongyi didn’t understand.

She blinked and continued to ask, "How did you get in? My door lock is intact, but only I can open it. Others can’t crack it through any means."

Lu Ran glanced at the living room’s floor-to-ceiling window, gestured with his mouth, and said, "Your window lock isn’t as secure as your front door."

When Ye Hongyi turned her head to look, she was dumbfounded.

The window that was originally locked was now forcibly removed.

The window was wide open.

But...

This is the thirty-eighth floor!

"You came in through the window? How is that possible!" Ye Hongyi said in shock.

"Nothing is impossible. The world is vast and full of wonders. Entering through the window avoids many hassles," Lu Ran said.

Ye Hongyi looked at Lu Ran doubtfully.

She still couldn’t figure out how Lu Ran managed to get in.

That’s normal.

A normal person in a normal world with normal thinking couldn’t possibly understand Lu Ran’s actions.

And Lu Ran wasn’t interested in dwelling on these issues.

He said straightforwardly, "Let’s get straight to the point. I’m here for the Data Core Qin Wuyao from the Qin Group is developing. Your four major capital stakeholders seem quite interested in it."

Ye Hongyi raised an eyebrow.

She said, "Did the Qin Family hire you?"

Lu Ran waved his hand and said, "Trust me, no one can afford to hire me. I’m here to ensure the proper launch of the Data Core. I know Qin Wuyao needs your consortium’s big data model. I hope you can provide it to her."

Upon hearing this,

Ye Hongyi narrowed her eyes slightly.

She said, "All four major capital stakeholders are interested in it. To be frank, even though it seems like a gimmick, this gimmick alone can cause a huge stir in the capital market. There are enormous interests involved. We can provide the big data model to perfect it, but we must get a stake in the Qin Group’s project. Otherwise, everything is negotiable."

Lu Ran wasn’t surprised at all.

This was something Qin Wuyao had mentioned before he came.

Indeed, the four major capital stakeholders had made this condition.

But to Lu Ran, this was ridiculous.

What good are shares? Once the Data Core is born, the Data World will overturn all rules. The current shares and business are all nonsense!

The world will be reshuffled, a major reset!

So,

from Lu Ran’s perspective, he could agree to any demand from the four major capital stakeholders!

Even giving them all the shares!

Even Qin Wuyao didn’t care about the shares. Her obsession was the advent of the Data Core. Shares, profit, business, and interests were worthless to her!

But the Qin Family needed them!

So this matter was at an impasse.

"Fine, as long as you provide your big data model, the Qin Family will give you 25% of the project shares," Lu Ran said directly.

Huh?

Ye Hongyi was taken aback.

That much!

This was far more generous than the conditions they initially proposed!

"Are you joking?" Ye Hongyi looked at Lu Ran suspiciously.

"I’m not joking," Lu Ran shook his head and said.

"Then you should know, Qin Wuyao also needs the other three families’ big data models. How will you compensate them? What’s the currency?" Ye Hongyi continued to ask.

"The same, 25%, the same for each family," Lu Ran shrugged and said.
