29: Nightclub Dating, the Secret of the Chen Group
Night fell.
Su Lei took out the key and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, two small figures rushed over joyfully.
"Dad!"
Su Yun pounced into Su Lei's arms, her small face flushed with excitement.
"That biological pod is amazing! I feel my whole body is full of Qi!"
Saying that, Su Yun, as if afraid he wouldn't believe her, excitedly did a few somersaults on the spot.
Su Qiaoqiao giggled, circling beside her, "I feel great too!"
"It's good that it has an effect."
Su Lei rubbed the heads of the two little ones, smiling gently, "Sleep at least five hours every day, understood?"
"Got it!" the two children shouted in unison.
The bedroom door suddenly opened.
Li Xue凝 leaned against the doorframe, wearing a deep purple silk nightgown.
Her slender and alluring curves made Su Lei's Adam's apple bob unconsciously.
She lazily brushed aside her loose long hair.
As she gracefully walked over, the hem of her nightgown swayed gently with her steps, revealing a section of her fair, long legs.
"Why are you back so late? I was just about to call you."
She approached him with a playful whine, the faint scent of jasmine on her body wafting into Su Lei's nose.
"I went to the Martial Alliance for my annual review." Su Lei naturally put his arm around her slender waist and gently kissed her forehead.
"Then the second-tier Martial Artist certificate…"
"I'm no longer a second-tier Martial Artist."
"What!" Li Xue凝's body stiffened.
Could it be that he dropped to first-tier…
Su Lei deliberately paused, and meeting his wife's worried gaze, he chuckled and added, "Your husband is now a first-tier Martial Master."
"Martial Master?"
Li Xue凝 thought she had misheard until Su Lei pulled out his Martial Artist certificate from his embrace.
"Besides the fixed 20,000 yuan every month, the Martial Alliance also gave me a five-million-yuan bonus."
Li Xue凝 couldn't help but cover her mouth.
"Husband! You're amazing!"
She cheered, jumping up and wrapping herself around Su Lei, her long legs tightly entwined around his waist.
Su Lei naturally supported her shapely bottom, "Should we go look at houses tomorrow?"
Li Xue凝 hesitated for a moment, then gently shook her head.
"You often have to go out on missions, so this money should be saved for yourself."
Su Lei smiled.
He possessed the Vibration Method and Meditation Technique, two secret arts, and currently had no need for new Cultivation Techniques.
Instead of spending time studying new Cultivation Techniques, he might as well practice Thousand Layer Wave, the B-grade martial art gifted by Chen Corporation.
Su Lei rubbed her head, "You've suffered for so many years; it's time for you to enjoy life."
"No! You are the pillar of our family!"
Li Xue凝 shook her head, her attitude firm.
"Besides, even if you don't use it for yourself, then use it on Yun'er and Qiaoqiao."
"That goes without saying. On the way back, I already ordered several boxes of top-grade Qi and blood medicine from the Martial Alliance's mall…"
As Su Lei spoke, his gaze roamed over Li Xue凝's graceful figure.
Finally, it involuntarily slid towards Li Xue凝's neckline.
The faintly visible fair skin there made his mouth dry.
Li Xue凝's ears instantly flushed crimson, and she playfully punched his chest, "You scoundrel, didn't we just at noon…"
Before she could finish, Su Lei's phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
He took out his phone; it was a text message from Lin Qianqian.
"I need to see you. Starry Nightclub."
"This…" Su Lei subconsciously looked up at his wife in front of him.
At this time of night, for this Young Miss to ask him to a nightclub seemed inappropriate no matter how he looked at it.
Unexpectedly, Li Xue凝 merely glanced at the screen, and a faint smile instead appeared on her lips.
She reached out and tidied his collar.
"Since she's invited you out, then go. Tell her the good news too."
Su Lei was stunned and couldn't help but ask.
"You… don't mind?"
Li Xue凝 chuckled, her finger gently tapping his forehead, "Silly, if I didn't even have this much trust, how could I be your wife?"
"Go, don't keep her waiting too long. Remember not to drink too much."
"Got it."
...
An hour later, Su Lei arrived at Starry Nightclub.
The neon lights at the entrance flickered in the night.
Pushing open the heavy soundproof door, deafening music surged in like a tide.
The crowd on the dance floor twisted wildly to the beat.
With the deafening music, people on the dance floor twisted their bodies freely, reveling.
Su Lei frowned, looking around, and found Lin Qianqian in a booth in the corner.
She was wearing a black leather skirt tonight, her long legs crossed, idly swirling her drink.
Seeing Su Lei, she immediately raised her hand to wave.
"Why are you only just arriving?"
"I've already sent away several groups of guys trying to hit on me."
Su Lei sat opposite her, "The bus only goes so fast."
Lin Qianqian rolled her eyes, "Can't you buy a car? You've at least earned a few million."
Su Lei sighed, "Miss Lin, I still have a whole family to support, and the expenses after becoming a Martial Master are also very high."
"You became a Martial Master?"
Lin Qianqian suddenly sat up straight, her eyes sparkling as if she had discovered some rare treasure.
Su Lei nodded gently, "Alright, tell me, what do you need me for?"
"Can't I call you out for a drink if there's nothing wrong?" Lin Qianqian pouted, then suddenly leaned closer.
The faint scent of her perfume mixed with the smell of alcohol wafted into Su Lei's nostrils.
"Coming to a nightclub to drink so late, don't your family members care?"
"My dad was transferred to the Northwest Military Region last year; how could my mom control me?"
Su Lei frowned incessantly, "So you were just bluffing that day."
Lin Qianqian snorted softly.
"Although my dad isn't here, his old subordinates are still in South China."
"I can call them over with just one word."
"If you dare to bully me again, hmph hmph…"
Su Lei shook his head, making to get up, "Alright, if there's nothing, I'm going back. I still have to go to Chen Corporation tomorrow."
"To do what?"
"To cooperate in some research."
Lin Qianqian's expression suddenly turned serious, "Are they asking you to participate in… No way?"
The girl's unusual behavior caught Su Lei's attention.
He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Is there a problem?"
Lin Qianqian paused, her voice even lower, almost a whisper.
"My dad and Boss Chen have a good relationship… I only found out by chance."
"The army once captured many exotic beasts and sent them to Chen Corporation."
"The Martial Alliance Association also sent some death row prisoners to their company…"
"Chen Corporation might be secretly conducting some kind of human experimentation; you…"
"Human experimentation?" Su Lei's pupils contracted slightly.
During the underground boxing match, the opponent known as the "Troll" suddenly appeared in his mind.
That terrifying, beast-like strength and inhuman madness were still fresh in his memory.
Could that be Chen Corporation's "research outcome"?
Seeing Su Lei remain silent for a long time, Lin Qianqian reached out and gently pressed his wrist.
"Don't overthink it; this is just my guess…"
Su Lei took a deep breath, his fingers tapping lightly on the table.
During the day at the association's entrance, he always felt that Chen Sheng's gaze towards him was a little off, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly why.
From the underground boxing gym onwards, Chen Corporation's attitude towards him had been intriguing.
They killed Qin Ming right in front of them, yet they provided resources, offered convenience, and even immediately arranged "research cooperation" after he became a Martial Master…
Su Lei silently recalled past details, his expression growing increasingly grim.
A terrifying guess emerged in his mind—
What they wanted, perhaps, was not his blood sample at all, but him?
After a long silence, Su Lei picked up the wine glass in front of him and drained it in one gulp.
"But I need to make money, to make money quickly…"
Lin Qianqian's lips curved slightly, revealing a cunning smile.
"If you really want to make money, you can join the army."
"Don't forget, you're a Martial Master; you'll start at least at the captain level."
Su Lei's gaze darkened as he absently spun the glass in his hand.
The army was indeed a good option, but the problems were also obvious—he would be completely tied down.
All actions would have to follow superior orders, and if he was unlucky, he might not get a mission for half a year, or even longer.
Even with missions, the rewards might not be satisfactory.
In the military, all exotic beast corpses were handled by specialized personnel.
Subsidies were distributed after battles based on individual contributions.
Lin Qianqian seemed to have noticed his concerns and took a small sip of her drink.
"You can also join as a mercenary."
"But I need to warn you about one thing…"
Her expression suddenly turned serious.
"Although your actions will be freer, and the spoils of war will be yours, you will also face higher risks than regular soldiers."
"The casualty rate for mercenaries in the Southern Theater Command has reached fifty-seven percent."
