*****Hearing the Prime Minister’s question, the man opposite him hesitated for a moment, a flicker running across his expression… calculating and cautious, before he finally answered.“Since you’ve already cleared the site for us, making things significantly easier, once we sign the deal today, we will immediately dispatch our construction crews from the capital tomorrow, and after they settle in, we can begin work on the site immediately,” he explained with professional certainty.“Hmm.”The Prime Minister nodded his head slowly, thinking through the logistics and weighing the implications.His expression remained calm, but inside, the gears of excitement were spinning hard enough to power a generator.“Good then,” he eventually said, his voice steady. “How many people are coming so that I can arrange accommodation for them throughout their stay here?”“This…”The wealthy man’s eyes brightened instantly, as though he had just been told he could skip taxes forever. “You will

*****'Is he coming?!That alone sent a tidal wave of excitement crashing through the Prime Minister’s system… excitement stronger than the thrill he had felt when the wealthy man announced his plans to build a new branch in his city.That moment had been monumental…But this? This was spiritual-level excitement.The old man nearly leaped like a jubilant teenager… almost.But he still retained one microscopic thread of self-control. Plus, he still hadn’t confirmed his suspicion.'Maybe the grandmaster is sending someone instead,’ he told himself desperately, clinging to the thought to stabilize his emotions, and it worked… barely.“Ye… yes, Grandmaster. I’m at the office,” he replied, his voice trembling but respectful to the point of worship.There was a short moment of pause. Then a soft exhale. And finally…“I’m currently outside your office building,” the voice said, still sounding calm, casual, lazy, and nonchalant. “If it’s convenient for you, please, I need you to spe

*****“Sit down.”The voice landed like a cold blade… smooth, calm, unhurried, controlled, yet sharp enough to slice through the PA’s fury.She instantly flinched, startled. Then, with her breath hitching, she turned toward the voice's owner.It was her boss, who currently sat there with a level of calm that felt almost illegal, as though he hadn’t just suffered the level of disregard he had never known before in his life.“But…” she tried, indignation still burning bright in her eyes.However, the wealthy man’s stern look shut her down instantly. Not a word was spoken, but the unspoken message hit her like a slap… Stop, now.With this, the PA could only swallow her outrage, her shoulders stiff, and then finally, she slowly and begrudgingly lowered herself back into her seat.Anyone watching could practically hear her internal monologue screaming in protest.The Prime Minister’s subordinates certainly noticed; several were already sweating bullets, convinced she might explode

***** Meanwhile, back at the entrance of the Prime Minister’s office building. A moment ago, after Xavier dialed the number… The two guards and their captain glared at Xavier with a mixture of mockery, contempt, and pure condescension, making no intention of interrupting him. If anything, they just listened to him calmly… almost too calmly as he spoke casually and lazily into the buttoned cell phone. They didn’t interrupt, didn’t react, and just waited. Then finally, after a moment, they watched him slowly remove the phone from his ear, appearing helpless. “He didn’t even do what I wanted before hanging up,” Xavier sighed to himself. And that was the breaking point. The guards could no longer hold it in. “Pft!” The first guard burst out laughing, slapping his thigh. “I’ve seen a lot of pompous, pretentious second-gen brats in this place, but you? You’re a whole new breed!” The second guard stepped forward, his arms crossed, his face twisted into a mocki

*****“HAHAHAHAHAHA!”Loud laughter erupted at the building’s entrance… sounding wild, uncontrollable, and absolutely unhinged.In the very next second, the three guards doubled over, slapping their thighs, and wheezing as though Xavier had just delivered the greatest comedy performance in the history of mankind.“He just spoke on the phone with the Prime Minister! Hahahaha!” one of the two guards howled, his voice cracking.“I’ve met many jokers in my life,” the captain gasped between fits of laughter, “but one like this? Hahaha! What a masterpiece!”“Hehehe! He just spoke to the Prime Minister! And while he did that, I just spoke to the Nation’s president!” the second guard added sarcastically, nearly collapsing from his own joke.They laughed so hard to the extent that it seemed as though laughter was the only thing keeping them alive… as if silence itself would suffocate them.Especially the two guards.Even the captain… usually the picture of cold composure and aloofness
