I am Lapland’s rat!

It was night, the study, and Texas, who had just celebrated his 17th birthday.

She stood in front of Grandpa Salvatore. The statue-like old man was leaning on the recliner, smiling kindly.

"Grandpa...why do Uncle Mossidi, Aunt Georgia, and others always discuss the topic of getting me married? Is getting married so important?"

In the dim light, Texas was troubled.

But she didn't really want her grandpa to help her resolve her doubts, because she didn't quite understand what grandpa said.

But at this point in time, acting coquettishly to Salvatore was a good way to effectively prevent her relatives from nagging in her ears.

But Salvatore said mildly:

"My little Cellinina, this is because you have reached this age. In their opinion, it is normal for a child of an upper-class Colombian family to find a marriage partner at this age."

"grandfather……"

"Don't show such an expression, okay?" Salvatore smiled and stretched out his hand, lovingly touching the head of Texas, who was sitting beside the recliner, even though Texas felt that he didn't show any special expression.

"Did you know? In our hometown of Syracuse, the children of the family will be sent out for training at this age."

"Hey?"

This was something Texas had not heard of.

"Do you want to go to Syracuse? Grandpa still has connections there. I can send you there - a family called Saluzzo. Their daughter is as old as you."

Salvatore whispered softly.

Texas knew her eyes were widening in surprise, but she was just paying attention to the look on her grandfather's face.

It was an expression that was mixed with nostalgia and another emotion that she couldn't understand.

While Texas was stunned, Salvatore's tone changed again, turning into his usual preaching tone:

"But you have to know that whether it is Syracuse or Colombia, there is actually no difference in the laws followed by the families. I hope you can understand this, little Cellinina."

"...I hope you can understand this on your own."

Under the dim light, the eyes of the tall old man were shining with wisdom that had lasted for decades.

……

Texas was fashionable and didn't understand Salvatore's intentions until she came to Onor, and she and Lapland experienced the changes in the master of the East District together. At that time, she still believed that Salvatore was showing her a kind of The choice to leave Colombia.

—Texas could remain in Syracuse if she wished.

However, when she met Sofia in the Colombian border wilderness, Texas realized that everything was not that simple.

She was sent to Syracuse as a proton by Salvatore.

So, what did Salvatore get in exchange for Syracuse?

What on earth does he... want with Texas?

Texas didn't know this, and she thought hard about it, and she lay awake at night.

In the family, the person she trusts the most is Grandpa Salvatore.

But even that kind of grandfather...

She didn't tell anyone about this matter, she didn't even tell Wu Xian about it, but kept it deep in her heart.

She followed Lapland to establish Silver Wolf Security, and got to where she is today. She faced off against Mosetti's minions, and her identity was exposed——

Texas thought that Salvatore would let her go home at this time and give her a chance to ask all the questions face to face.

But Salvatore did nothing.

He did nothing.

This is why Texas is hesitant at this time.

She got to where she is today entirely because of Salvatore's guidance.

Without Salvatore, Texas would not have gone to Syracuse, met Lapland, or followed Lapland back to Colombia in this way.

And at this critical moment...

But she lost her direction.

Even on the surface, Texas continues to act like business as usual.

Chapter 123: The Road Ahead Is Broad

"..."

Lapland looked at the thoughtful Texas and suddenly smiled.

"Dear Texas, do you know what I told Ms. Vaifan the day before yesterday?"

"Ok?"

The topic suddenly jumped, interrupting Texas's thoughts, and she looked at Lapland.

Lapland showed a rather regretful expression: "I wanted to fight with her, but it didn't work out."

"...Ms. Seria is not like you."

Texas paused for a moment and said quietly sarcastically.

Lapland laughed: "So, Texas, do you now understand the difference between Syracuse and Colombia?"

"..."

Texas also knew Lapland very well. She looked stunned and quickly realized what Lapland wanted to say.

She thought for a moment, and then suddenly felt relieved:

"……you're right."

Lapland laughed:

"Let us solve the problem together the Syracusan way, dear Texas, and I will do my best to help you, just as you helped me."

At this time, Wu Xian, who was listening to the conversation between the two wolves and looking forward to the macaroni waiting for him, suddenly perked up his ears and twitched his beard.

"What, what did I miss?"

"Why did the plot of the hot-blooded comic suddenly start? Are La Gouzi and De Gouzi about to become sworn brothers in Taoyuan?"

"Three knots, please add Shushu to me!"

Wu Xian quickly jumped over from the dining table, looked up at Texas, and then watched Texas stretch out his little paw.

……

"Humph." Texas showed a four-pixel smile, stretched out his hand, and touched Wu Xian's back.

"Thank you, but I think Xiaoyin is much more reliable than you."

Laplande: "?"

Lapland showed an exaggerated expression of shock.

Wu Xian blinked, looked up at Texas, and found that Texas was in a good mood now.

Then he finally came to his senses through the resonance of his heart:

"Oh, so they decided not to think about what Salvatore wants Texas to do, but to let Silver Wolf Security continue to become stronger as before in the next time?"

It is indeed a very Laplander-esque decision.

At this time, Texas directly ignored Lapland, and continued the previously interrupted topic and replied: "Putting aside my family affairs, raising Uncle Mosedi's matter to the police seems to have a negative impact on the current situation of the bank." Wolf security doesn’t do any good.”

"That's it."

Lapland raised the corner of his lips and replied: "Actually, we don't need the truth. More than 20 family elites are in prison, which is actually enough to hit your second uncle. And Fenrir security is under investigation, which is very important for the current development. advantageous……"

"...And the enemy of Rhine Life will definitely show his weakness next time." Texas continued.

"That's it."

Lapland laughed happily.

……

After a while, the orders of bolognese noodles, risotto and pizza were brought out, and Wu Xian's attention instantly shifted from the conversation between the two wolves to the food in front of him.

Just have a meal first!

Lapland and Texas also buried their heads in eating and stopped mentioning work matters.

When the two of them had eaten and drank enough, and before they even paid the bill and left the restaurant, Lapland's words about "the benefits that Fenrir Security's involvement in the investigation brought to Silver Wolf Security" hit them on the head.

"Hello, Mr. Quinn?"

"...Huh? Well, ah, thank you so much!"

"Yeah, Xiao Yin is here, do you want to chat with him?"

"No? Well, actually, I think you can communicate using code."

……

Lapland hung up the sudden communication, then smiled and said to Texas:

"At this month's business exhibition, because Fenrir Security was unable to attend, their booth is owned by us at Rheinland Life Insurance."

Wu Xian's eyes lit up.

Is there such a good thing?

——Because today is already May 5st, the date of the commercial exhibition is actually very close.

In other words, most booths are fully booked at this time.

The organizer of the business exhibition was originally the Tremont Economic Development Bureau led by Quinn. Although after obtaining the qualification, Lapland could apply to Quinn again. For Wu Xian's sake, Quinn could also make the decision. Add a new small booth——

But how can this be as good as directly using Fenrir Security's fixed booth?

And Wu Xian soon realized that this was just the beginning.

The investigation of Fenrir Security means that the ecological niche in the security market they occupy has become vacant.

Originally, after their publicity, the security needs of the middle and lower-level people in Tremont City were already inclined to choose security companies like Fenrir Security to undertake tasks——

Now that Fenrir Security is no longer able to operate normally, it means that the orders that would have been obtained by Fenrir Security will go to other small security companies!

And in Tremont, which small security company can compete with Silver Wolf Security, which is about to receive investment from Rheinland Life?

If Texas does not report Mosedi to the Public Security Bureau, the investigation date for Fenrir's security can be extended——

When Fenrir Security was finally freed from the investigation, Tremont's world changed!

……

……

The next most important task for Lapland and Texas is to attend Rheinland Life’s shareholder meeting.

There, it will be decided in what way Silver Wolf Security will join the Rhine Life System, and how much benefits it can get from it and how many changes it can make.

Before the shareholders' meeting on May 5, the Tremont stop of the Rheinland Life Achievement Exhibition came to an end.

On the last day of the exhibition, we received five figures of visitors. At its peak, the flow of people even filled an entire branch of the convention and exhibition center. It was so hot that Muirseth said it was "going to evaporate."

Among the tourists, Wu Xian even saw a brown-haired girl with glasses named Li Boli who looked like Hemo. Unfortunately, there were too many people and he lost her in a blink of an eye.

……

The achievement exhibition has achieved fruitful results. During these two days, six senior executives of Rheinland Life Sciences will also have dinner. Lapland and Wu Xian, as partners who are about to join, are also able to participate.

However, the three young ladies who have the best relationship with Lapland are Muir Seth, Seria and Kristen.

Mulseth can get along with everyone, Ceria recognizes Lapland, and Kristen and Lapland have a subtle and strange similarity.

During this period, Wu Xian also met Ms. Yala, who was always a little busy——

A white-haired Luper woman who looks young but is actually over 40 years old.

Don't tell me, he looks a little bit like Lapland.

……

Then, the day came for Rheinland Life’s shareholders’ meeting.
