When Xiang Wenxin drove Liu Zhizhong to the resort, he was truly shocked again.

The resort nestled by the mountains and the sea, with European-style villas scattered like stars. There are small streams, a horse farm, a golf course, a yacht and sailing center by the sea, and so on.

All the staff at the resort, from security to service personnel to logistics staff, appear to be experienced and vigorous—not necessarily young, but all possessing great substance and demeanor, giving guests a great impression.

Because the Nanyue Meeting is about to be held, so temporarily, there is no reception from the outside, making the entire resort particularly, particularly quiet.

The European rural club style is displayed here to the fullest.

Can you imagine it?

This is just an island which used to be a home for professional or semi-professional fishermen. They took root here, some specializing in fishing, like Liu Dongyuan's family; others fish during leisure and farm during busy times.

The fields and valleys here, the harbor and the beach, after years of wind and rain, finally served a significant role.

Who would have thought, a secret military base is here, and such a heavy configuration of air force and navy defends the southern gates of the empire!

Who would have thought, next to the military base, there's privatized industrial resort, with a bigwig behind it like the King of Nantian.

Peak representatives of local powerful people, much like the Xiang Family, haha... As for whether the Xiang Family actually goes by Xiang, who can be sure?

Just after getting off the car, still from afar, comes the rumbling sound of military aircraft, though it doesn't sound very loud, since they're quite far away.

Just getting off the car, from the distant sky, comes two loud bangs, like thunderclaps.

Liu Zhizhong was startled and looked up towards the sound, "Huh? With such a clear sky, how can there be thunder? There's no thundercloud forming an electrode gap..."

Xiang Wenxin seemed unbothered, even slightly sarcastic, "Look at you, like you've never seen the world, is this thunder?"

Liu Zhizhong paused, asking back: "Isn't this thunder? It clearly sounds like thunder!"

"Tsk~~~ Did your college physics go to the dogs?"

Liu Zhizhong looked innocent, "I'm a liberal arts student, didn't study physics in college..."

"You learned it in high school, right?"

"Usually scoring full marks."

Xiang Wenxin showed a disdainful expression, "Showing off huh? Does scoring full marks help? Once you come out, aren't you going to be someone's foster son in a grand family, possibly even offered your body to foster father?"

She rolled her eyes, and after saying that, she coyly pursed her lips with a smile, full of mischievous intent.

Liu Zhizhong felt overwhelmed, "You really like to ramble, I was talking about thunder, you're on about foster fathers."

"Oh, not rambling anymore. Let me tell you, those were not thunder, but the sound of two super jets breaking the sound barrier. Understand the sound barrier, you idiot!"

"Uh... I..." Liu Zhizhong was completely stunned, then rubbed the back of his head and chuckled. Looking at the horizon, there really seemed to be faint traces of super jet exhaust, though very faint.

Xiang Wenxin rolled her eyes at him, "Telling you you've never seen the world, you do seem like an idiot, and rubbing your head makes you look even more like one, hehe..."

Liu Zhizhong: "..."

He could only remain speechless.

Alright, I guess I'm on the island, and witness it, hehe... it really is a secret military base!

Xiang Wenxin waved a hand, "Alright, grab your luggage, go to your villa first, then I'll help ask about Liu Zongyuan."

"It's Liu Dongyuan."

"Who cares what Liu Something Yuan?"
