Chapter 534: Meeting the Silver Fox!
……!
After hearing the Silver Fox’s confession, Kai Xin felt dizzy—she had been under someone’s surveillance and protection for over four months without even realizing it. That Silver Fox had been right next to her, spying on her through cameras every day…
Thinking about having been taken care of by a man for so long, Kai Xin felt both touched and a bit horrified. She thought to herself: Thankfully, the Silver Fox has a good character. If he were more twisted, it might not have been protection but kidnapping of this billionaire heiress worth over a billion.
It was then that Kai Xin realized that while she had laid out another path for herself based on memories from her past life, she had inadvertently exposed even bigger flaws. Focused only on revenge, she had unknowingly started building an empire worth an extraordinary amount of money. If someone determined to investigate her whereabouts found out, trouble might already be brewing.
As she reflected on this, she was also secretly relieved—thankfully, she wasn’t directly in charge of the Mu Family. Otherwise, this small base would be no different from a paper-thin central bank.
The Silver Fox understood why Kai Xin had fallen silent. Ordinary people usually get overwhelmed when they suddenly realize their wealth has multiplied by thousands. Moreover, compared to those he had protected before, Kai Xin was a nouveau riche—a rather unusual one, with no foundation or connections, someone who might as well dig a hole and live in it.
Realizing all this suddenly, she would need some time to adjust!
On top of that, Kai Xin was now not only the behind-the-scenes ruler of the Mu Family with astonishing daily earnings but also had even greater potential for growth as countries became more interconnected!
“Don’t worry. With me around, your safety is basically guaranteed. My phone is connected to all the surveillance cameras in the complex, and there are warning systems in the nearby buildings. As long as you don’t open the door for anyone, I’ll be there in time.” After a pause, he added, “My three brothers will arrive this afternoon.”
“Come here.”
Taking a deep breath, Kai Xin hung up the phone.
A few seconds later, the door was knocked.
For the first time, Kai Xin felt a bit nervous.
Although she had dealt with the Silver Fox many times, this was their first face-to-face meeting. Moreover, he was a combat expert registered with a special military unit, so she felt a little anxious.
He opened the door, and outside stood a man who was extremely tall and burly, with a cold expression. In infatuated terms, he was the epitome of a cold, rugged man. His appearance made Happy instinctively compare his own thin arms and legs, feeling utterly ashamed.
“Chen Kaixin.”
Happy politely extended his right hand to introduce himself.
Without the damaged silver mask, Silver Fox seemed to have lost his cold demeanor from the game as well. He smiled warmly and shook hands with Happy. “I know. Just call me Silver Fox—that’s my code name in the army.” He habitually glanced around the living room and said, “Come in and sit.” The two sat face to face on the sofa.
While Happy secretly observed Silver Fox, the latter was also watching Happy!
During this time, Happy had stayed indoors most of the time, rarely going out. He had few opportunities to see Happy in person, and much of what he knew came from the databases of Nanhua University and some information circulating on the Nanhua martial arts rankings.
Happy was surprised by Silver Fox’s youth and striking appearance; Silver Fox, in turn, was surprised by Happy’s youth, composure, and presence. It was this young man who, just a few months ago, had strangely and trustfully given him five million to become his boss.
It was also this boy, nearly ten years younger than him, who was behind one of the largest gangs in the martial arts world today—Mufu—and was now one of the most famous strongmen in the industry!
With their own thoughts in mind, the two discussed some trivial topics to learn more about each other.
Only then did Happy remember the purpose of his call.
He dialed the number of the person in charge of paid REP on the official website.
“Happy! It’s rare you have time to call me. Do you have something good for me?” The other party replied promptly.
Without beating around the bush, Happy said directly, “The REP from Silver Fox’s fight against Yi Di.”
“Silver Fox? Yi Di? I thought it was yours… This is a bit troublesome. The rules for paid REP state that only the owner of the REP can sell it.” The other party hesitated for a moment.
“I know,” Happy replied immediately. “Silver Fox is right here with me. If he authorizes me to negotiate with you, Brother Liu, there shouldn’t be any problem, right?” Glancing at Silver Fox, whose expression remained calm, he still sensed a slight hint of urgency from him.
Paid REP—if it could gain the approval of the person in charge of paid channels—would undoubtedly be the hottest content around, ensuring huge sales. There was even a chance of amassing tens of millions or even hundreds of millions in wealth.
“This…”
The other party hesitated for a moment but quickly resolved themselves: “If it’s authorized by him personally, of course there’s no problem… I wonder what Mr. Happy wants to discuss?”
“The REP from fighting against ‘One Emperor’, Silver Fox, wants to be released on the paid REP channel right away. I want a 50-50 split.” Although Happy hadn’t turned on the speaker, Silver Fox’s sharp hearing allowed them to clearly hear the reply. Hearing Happy’s request for a 50-50 split made their heart tremble.
A 50-50 split!
As is well known, the split for paid REP channels is fixed at 10%!
A 50-50 split meant five times the usual profit!
“Happy, this is a bit troublesome. A 50-50 split is only applicable to you for now, and there are several players fighting against ‘One Emperor’ at the moment. This split is a bit too high,” said the person surnamed Liu, clearly at a loss.
“But you should know that most of those people’s REP has no value… One strike, two strikes—nothing can be sold from them… Silver Fox is the only one who took on four strikes and managed to injure ‘One Emperor’.” Happy didn’t rush to respond. Sitting on the sofa, they wore a faint smile as they slowly played their advantages. Their calm and composed demeanor impressed Silver Fox deeply, making them seem like the unseen master controlling everything in the game.
It was at this moment…
that Silver Fox finally began to understand why this young man could quickly build an even larger “Mu Family” after the downfall of Caiyi Gate!
All of this…
wasn’t luck or chance.
“But those REP still divert Silver Fox’s REP resources.”
The person surnamed Liu was very talkative, trying to use expertise to persuade Happy to give up the 50-50 split.
However, Happy knew more about paid REP than Liu, speaking in his usual calm and confident tone: “I think the opposite is true. Silver Fox’s REP is unique and complete… Those REP only serve as a preview and promotion, arousing more people’s curiosity about Silver Fox’s fight against ‘One Emperor’ and making them want to experience sensations not found in other REP. Four strikes is the first gimmick; injuring ‘One Emperor’ is the second… This is unique, at least for now. So, we’d better not waste time.” Happy’s last sentence revealed something only the person surnamed Liu could understand.
“Okay, I agree to your terms! But this won’t happen again,” said the person surnamed Liu after a few seconds of silence, choosing to compromise.
