Chapter 1480: Chapter 558: It’s All My Duty
When Sena Romanov was sent away by her attendants like a dog with its tail between its legs, and then sent straight onto the warship to get out of the atmosphere in a very short time, the commotion in the trade fair finally ceased, returning to normal.
The merchant representatives from the Empire Core were indeed uneasy at heart, but they couldn’t resist the substantial profits visible to the naked eye. They still steeled themselves to sign contracts with the business personnel from Red Blade Star.
As for Ren Zhong, he was back with Seven in the somewhat private meeting room above the viewing platform.
When the two were alone, Seven no longer wore her previously cool expression, but instead spoke with a smile, "You don’t seem surprised that I am Marquis Zhenjiang?"
Ren Zhong nodded, "I guessed it when Marvill introduced you to me. There were too many details that exposed the truth."
"Has anyone ever told you that overly straightforward men aren’t favored by women?" Seven said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
Ren Zhong thought for a moment, "Actually, it’s not that bad. Quite a few people actually like me. I never needed to use flowery words to deceive anyone; there’s no need for that."
"Alright, you win."
Ren Zhong thought again and added, "Actually, Marquis, your actions earlier were somewhat inappropriate. I can be blunt with Sena because my stance was in opposition to hers right from the start. You had originally dealt with Baron Wenle and her well, but now that’s all for nothing. Besides, I wasn’t actually afraid of her pulling the trigger earlier. That kind of water gun couldn’t hurt me. Lady Sena lives a pampered life and truly doesn’t understand the dangers of the world. My reputation as a Super Soldier is not just talk. I have ten thousand ways to counter-kill her on the spot."
"If you really killed her, the situation couldn’t have been smoothed over. Your current position is not strong enough." Seven shook her head, "In short, you have your considerations, and I have mine. I don’t have much time left, so I’m also tired of the lowly interests of high nobility. I just took the chance to kick this person out in a reasonable and legal manner for peace and quiet. It turns out you helped me."
"I see, in that case I feel relieved." Ren Zhong nodded, but he didn’t press further about what "not much time left" meant.
This behavior made Marquis Zhenjiang, who originally intended to clarify doubts and reveal cards, feel quite stuffy and speechless.
You don’t play by the rules!
Are you really not curious at all?
After a few seconds of silence in the room, Ren Zhong made a gesture to take his leave, "If there’s nothing else, Marquis, I need to return to the venue; the guests are still waiting for me."
"You..." Seven gave him a glare, "Forget it. Wait... you don’t need to call me Marquis, just call me Seven. I actually don’t like this title. In my heart, my most important identity is not Marquis Zhenjiang, but simply the seventh daughter of the Jin Family."
"Alright. I understand." Ren Zhong nodded first to indicate he understood, then immediately turned to prepare to leave.
Just before leaving, Ren Zhong suddenly turned back and said, "Marquis, oh, no Seven. Actually, there’s one thing I don’t quite understand."
"What’s that? Go ahead."
"Why, as a dignified Marquis, would you want to serve a stranger Earl like me whom you’ve only just met?"
Seven smoothed her hair and laughed nonchalantly, "Anyway, it’s just an artificial body. What’s the harm?"
Ren Zhong shook his head, "That doesn’t answer my doubts."
"I’m curious, is that not allowed?" Seven blinked.
Ren Zhong’s mouth twitched slightly, "Alright, I believe you."
After saying this, he quickly made a swift exit.
In this short conversation, he gained some additional information related to Marquis Zhenjiang.
Likely this information was actively revealed to him by the other party, but Ren Zhong didn’t mind.
The morning trade fair, despite the ups and downs, even shedding blood and taking lives, ultimately concluded harmoniously amidst a cordial atmosphere.
Ren Zhong successfully opened new markets for Red Blade Coatings, especially among those merchants from the Empire Core.
Their volume of purchase was already considerable, and once they returned, they would become even better live advertisements, helping Ren Zhong promote invisible coatings substantially in bustling Star Zones for free.
Furthermore, quite a few relatively strong individuals have already obtained regional agency rights ahead of time, and as long as they proceed systematically with transformations and gradually expand, they will naturally achieve abundant wealth, and all will be delighted.
Except for Sena Romanov, who was forced back on her journey, everyone was satisfied with this trade fair.
