150: Chapter 150 Even if the form of warfare is rewritten, it's still not as sweet as cuddling a wife.

In the tea room, there was only the faint sound of teacups gently touching the mahogany table.

The term Lu Li had thrown out was like dropping a nuclear bomb into this calm lake.

Zero-casualty warfare.

This is the ultimate form that all military commanders in human history have dreamed of.

In his previous life, the Virtual Reality technology led by Lu Li had ultimately developed to this stage.

It was not only widely applied in deep space exploration and high-risk environmental operations but also completely rewrote the military landscape of Blue Star, bringing the great powers a step closer. Unfortunately, the United States was biting back hard and biting other countries everywhere.

The light in Elder Zhang's eyes completely erupted.

This old man, who had experienced countless storms, suddenly slapped his thigh and stood up.

"Good!"

"Excellent!"

He turned to look at Director Wu Zhenguo, his tone unprecedentedly stern and majestic.

"Elder Wu!"

"I order you."

"From today on, mobilize all the power the country can use to ensure the absolute safety of Comrade Lu Li and all his family members!"

"Any level of security measures must be raised to the highest specification for me!"

"We must never let our national treasure be exposed to even the slightest bit of danger!"

"Especially those pervasive intelligence agencies and infiltrators from across the ocean; they must be kept firmly outside our national borders!"

Elder Wu stood up abruptly.

He brought his feet together and gave a very standard military salute.

"Guarantee to complete the mission!"

Lu Li sat in his chair, feeling nothing particularly special about this tense atmosphere as if facing a great enemy.

Assassination?

He was actually itching inside right now.

The Mark 45 Battle Armor blueprints and core reactor technology just rewarded by the system were still fresh in his mind.

He couldn't wait to find a large, empty abandoned warehouse immediately, take out this Iron Man-style Battle Armor, put it on, and fly a few laps.

If a killer really showed up then, it wouldn't be certain who was assassinating whom.

Unfortunately, he had been taken here by a special car right after the press conference ended, leaving him no time to be alone.

After the core topics were discussed, the atmosphere in the tea room became relaxed again.

Elder Zhang sat back in his chair, his gaze turning to Su Qingxue, who had remained quiet.

The old man's eyes became much gentler, carrying the kindness one would show a younger generation.

"You must be the Su girl, right?"

"With Guanghui Technology in your hands, you withstood the pressure of foreign blockades and did not tarnish your grandfather's reputation."

Su Qingxue was flattered.

She quickly stood up and bowed slightly with a respectful posture.

"Elder Zhang."

"Do you know my grandfather?"

A stormy sea surged in her heart.

Her grandfather, Founder Su Zhenguo, was indeed a legend in the business world of Mingzhu City, having single-handedly created the Su Group.

But no matter how powerful a business legend was, he was still just a businessman.

How could he have entered the view of this old man who held the lifeline of the country?

"More than just know him."

Elder Zhang sighed, a hint of reminiscence appearing in his eyes.

"Back when I was in charge of Mingzhu City, your grandfather started from scratch."

"He relied on that unyielding backbone to build an electronic empire that was beginning to take shape in that era of extreme technological scarcity."

"It happened to be the time of state-owned enterprise reform."

"I personally visited him, wanting to ask him to come out of retirement and take the helm of a large state-owned electronics group that was vital to the country's semiconductor lifeline."

Elder Zhang shook his head, his tone full of undisguisable regret.

"It's a pity; he was a free spirit who didn't care for officialdom, so he politely declined me."

"Otherwise, our Chinese semiconductor industry might have been ten years ahead of where it is now."

These words fell.

Su Qingxue's mind went completely blank.

She had always known that her grandfather was very capable and the pride of the family.

But she had never known that her grandfather had such a past where he was valued by the state and even had the opportunity to take charge of the country's vital equipment.

And this kind old man before her.

Was actually that big shot who had the final say in Mingzhu City back then.

He was so strong back then.

This was a truly top-tier existence standing at the very pinnacle of China's power pyramid.

It wasn't until she followed Lu Li out of that heavily guarded hotel.

And sat in that special bulletproof Hongqi sedan, that she still felt like she was walking on clouds.

The soundproof partition rose.

The interior of the car fell into absolute privacy and silence.

Su Qingxue stared blankly at the fleeting night scene of Jingzhou outside the window.

She slowly turned her head, her gaze falling on Lu Li.

This man was slumped in the leather seat without any image, his collar buttons undone by two.

He didn't look like a national treasure who had just finalized a hundred-billion-level project, was awarded the rank of Major General, and received ministerial-level treatment.

It was truly one of a kind in all of history.

He looked more like an ordinary husband who had just finished working overtime and was anxious to go home for a hot meal.

Su Qingxue's heartbeat began to lose control.

Just now in the tea room, when Lu Li said in the most indifferent tone, "I want to go home on time to have dinner with my wife," that old man standing at the pinnacle of power actually laughed.

Not only did he agree, but he also gave him the greatest freedom.

This confidence that transcended rules came from the knowledge in his mind from his previous life that was ahead of the era.

Su Qingxue looked at Lu Li's clean profile, and a sense of admiration and love, so intense that it almost overflowed, instantly shattered all her reason.

"Husband."

Her voice was as soft as a pool of water, with an imperceptible tremor.

Su Qingxue leaned over actively and hugged Lu Li's waist tightly.

She buried her face in Lu Li's chest, greedily sniffing the faint scent on him.

"Do you know... the way you negotiated just now was really domineering."

Her voice was muffled, but it couldn't hide that trace of a little woman's pride.

Lu Li took the opportunity to put his arm around her, his fingers gently winding around her long hair.

"Domineering?"

"I helped them rewrite the form of war; in exchange for getting off work on time, they made a killing."

Listening to his "matter-of-fact" tone, Su Qingxue's eyes quietly turned red.

Outsiders only saw his glory and his omnipotence.

Only she knew that these things were what he had exchanged for his life's blood in his previous life.

The more understated he appeared now, the more Su Qingxue felt heartache.

She tightened her arms, wishing she could knead herself into his body.

"Lu Li, you promise me..."

"From now on, no matter what research you do, you are not allowed to work as hard as you did before."

"Whatever future city, whatever stars and sea, none of it is as important as you living well."

She didn't dare to mention the word "previous life," fearing to disturb this hard-won peace.

But the thought in her heart was incredibly firm: in this life, even if she didn't be this president, even if Guanghui Technology went bankrupt, she would still protect his health.

Lu Li noticed the anomaly of the person in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her on the forehead.

"Rest assured, in this life, I have such a beautiful wife, and I haven't lived enough of the 'soft rice' life yet."

"Whoever wants me to work overtime, I will get anxious with them."

But what he was thinking in his heart was that he at least needed to refresh the system tasks until it rewarded something in the medical field, right?

He still wanted to live another few decades with Su Qingxue in the future.

Su Qingxue laughed through her tears and gently pinched his waist.

"You're not serious."

She leaned on his shoulder, looking at the brilliant lights outside the window, and her heart had never felt as secure as it did now.

This man blocked all the sharpness of the world outside.

But only left the gentlest, most ordinary side completely to her.
