92: I accidentally offended someone when I went to the appointment.

At the same time, Long Feiyang, the physical clone sharing a synchronized view, entered the Red Queen's basement and instructed Red Queen.

"Red Queen, inform Zhou Qingxia that I will go to see her. Remember to ask her for location authorization, and ensure that no one else is present at the meeting place."

Red Queen: [Okay, Master.]

--- At the Zhou Residence, inside Zhou Qingxia's bedroom, Zhou Qingxia was still sound asleep.

Earlier, in the early hours of the morning, Zhou Qingxia's mind was entirely consumed by the Huan Guang Technology Sanctuary transaction. With her eyes closed, she was just overthinking, unable to sleep.

She only drifted into slumber in extreme exhaustion.

At this moment, Red Queen's voice abruptly sounded in the room: [Ms. Zhou, the leader has agreed to meet with you. May I ask if you would like to arrange the meeting now? A special reminder: the leader has explicitly requested that no other person be involved in this meeting.]

However, this voice could not wake the sleeping Zhou Qingxia at all. She remained immersed in her dreams, completely unaware, even letting out a slight snore.

Red Queen helplessly turned the volume to maximum: [Ms. Zhou, the leader has agreed to meet. May I ask if you would like to meet now? The leader requests that no one else be involved in the meeting.]

This time, Zhou Qingxia finally showed a slight reaction. She grumbled impatiently in her sleep, "So noisy."

Then, she instinctively rolled over, grabbed a pillow, and forcefully covered her other ear, trying to block the annoying sound, before continuing to sleep soundly.

Her pajamas had long become disheveled from tossing and turning, large expanses of her snow-white skin exposed without cover. In this quiet room, it was particularly eye-catching, like a tempting painting.

Red Queen did not give up. As an intelligent program, it strictly followed its predefined instructions.

Under normal circumstances, it would not easily disturb the rest of Zhou Qingxia and others, unless it encountered an urgent and important event, or received explicit instructions from its Master, Long Feiyang.

And at this moment, it was precisely because of its Master's request that it was so persistent in waking Zhou Qingxia.

Under Red Queen's continuous calls, Zhou Qingxia's beautiful dream was completely disturbed, and her irritation gradually rose.

Her brain, stimulated by the noisy sound, also began to slowly awaken, but drowsiness kept assailing her.

When she heard Red Queen's voice again, especially the key information that the leader agreed to meet, her brain instantly cleared by half.

Zhou Qingxia nodded hastily, "Yes, yes, yes, let's meet now."

Zhou Qingxia's tone carried a hint of urgency and determination. After all, this was a task her uncle had solemnly entrusted to her, and she had to complete it no matter what. In her heart, she felt an unquestionable sense of mission regarding her uncle's instructions.

But no sooner had she spoken than extreme fatigue struck again, and Zhou Qingxia fell back into a state of extreme drowsiness.

Red Queen immediately followed up with: [Do you authorize the location? Do you need to find another room to talk?]

Red Queen's words actually contained a hint and a reminder. It was trying to make Zhou Qingxia realize that her current state was not suitable for an immediate meeting, and perhaps another room would be more appropriate.

However, Zhou Qingxia was currently in a state of drowsiness, like a machine forcibly started. Her brain had not fully resumed normal operation and was still in a semi-conscious, hazy state of confusion.

She was not thinking clearly at all.

"No need, I authorize it. Right here, ah..."

She answered incoherently, yawning.

She was utterly exhausted, her eyes barely open. After speaking, she had already lain down and fallen asleep again.

After receiving the reply, Red Queen said: [Authorization successful. Please wait, the leader will arrive shortly.]

--- In the basement of the Long family's Siheyuan, after obtaining the location information, the physical clone Long Feiyang instantly transformed back into his previous life's appearance, dressed in black, cast an invisibility spell, passed through the wall, and sped towards the target location.

In the blink of an eye, Long Feiyang arrived at the designated room. What greeted his eyes was Zhou Qingxia, disheveled, a large expanse of her skin exposed, fast asleep. The sight made the clone Long Feiyang momentarily lose himself.

At the same time, Long Feiyang's main body, who was playing with Yaoyao, also shared this scene synchronously. His eyes became dull, and an inner flame began to subtly ignite.

Lost in thought, Long Feiyang accidentally knocked over the block house Yaoyao had just built.

Yaoyao's eyes widened, and her small face angrily accused Long Feiyang.

"Daddy, why did you knock down my house!"

"Ah?" Long Feiyang snapped back to reality and quickly apologized to Yaoyao: "Yaoyao, I'm sorry, Daddy didn't do it on purpose."

At the same time, Long Feiyang secretly ordered the clone to turn around, admonishing himself never to look again, no matter how tempting the sight before him, he could not lose composure in front of his daughter.

Yaoyao's small face was tense, and she continued to accuse Long Feiyang: "Daddy, you said you'd play with me, and you said you wouldn't be a bad person and knock down my house."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's all Daddy's fault. Daddy will help you rebuild it now."

Long Feiyang quickly picked up the blocks and accompanied Yaoyao in rebuilding the block house.

In the room at the Zhou Residence, after the clone Long Feiyang turned around, he deactivated his invisibility and appeared before Zhou Qingxia.

"Ms. Zhou, wake up."

Zhou Qingxia, startled awake again, saw the black-clad figure with his back to her and instantly widened her eyes, thoroughly shocked and fully awake.

"Ms. Zhou, the second temporary spokesperson for the Huan Guang Technology Sanctuary, hello. I am the leader of the Sanctuary, and I am here for our appointment. Regarding the transaction price, we have clearly marked prices, and there is no room for negotiation."

Long Feiyang, with his back to Zhou Qingxia, directly stated the pricing situation.

Ten times the steel, after capacity conversion in the Super Factory, could reach a maximum of sixty percent due to losses. After deducting costs, the actual profit would be between three to seven times, depending on the proportion of high-quality materials consumed after re-forging.

Zhou Qingxia was originally shocked and flustered by this sudden appearance, but seeing him speak with his back to her, she felt a sudden displeasure, thinking that she was, after all, a heroic and beautiful woman, so why was she so unwelcome?

"Hey, when you talk to me, you should at least respect me, right? Talking face-to-face is basic respect."

"Ms. Zhou, I mean no offense, it's just that your clothes just now..."

Long Feiyang thought Zhou Qingxia had already tidied her pajamas, so he turned around. Mid-sentence, he saw that Zhou Qingxia had not tidied her clothes at all, and the exposed charms once again came into view, especially that perky... which almost made Long Feiyang fall again.

Fortunately, the main body in the Siheyuan was alerted in time, and considering Yaoyao was right beside him, he forcibly controlled the clone to turn his back again.

This action by the clone Long Feiyang made Zhou Qingxia feel greatly offended, and she couldn't help but say angrily, "Hey, why are you so rude? Don't you know that conversations should be face-to-face?"

Long Feiyang was utterly helpless and could only explain, "Ms. Zhou, please tidy your clothes first. I am a normal man, and you are really... quite tempting like this."
