“Who’s your buddy?”

Lin Zinuo directly lifted her red high heel and stomped on Su Mo’s foot.

Su Mo didn't expect Lin Zinuo to suddenly do this, and he was solidly stomped on. The pain made his face twist.

“You…”

“That’ll teach you to spout nonsense.”

Lin Zinuo replied, her cheeks puffed up.

The female servers next to them couldn't help but almost laugh. They were all working hard to hold it in.

Su Mo was just about to explain to Lin Zinuo when his phone popped up with a message.

He picked it up and looked at it, only to find it was sent from an unknown number.

"Dear Mr. Su Mo, barring any changes, our special car is about to depart to pick you up."

Su Mo replied to the text message with a serious expression.

“What’s wrong?”

Lin Zinuo saw that Su Mo's expression was a little off, so she put away her childish temper and asked.

“Nothing, it’s almost time. The car to pick us up is here.”

Su Mo glanced at the time. It was already past four in the afternoon. Before he knew it, they had been messing around all day.

“I’m a little nervous.”

Lin Zinuo felt inexplicably nervous when she heard Su Mo say that. Although she was the one who fought for this, she was still apprehensive when it came down to it.

“What are you nervous about? We’re just going through the motions. Eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink.”

Although Su Mo said it lightly, he was also a little worried inside.

“Okay.”

Lin Zinuo mustered up a little courage. No matter what, she was still wearing such an expensive dress, so she shouldn't be too embarrassed, right?

“Okay, wait for me for a while.”

Su Mo turned around, took a black suit, and walked into the changing room.

…

Soon after, Su Mo and Lin Zinuo walked to the entrance of the mall.

Along the way, Lin Zinuo couldn't help but sneak glances at Su Mo.

And Su Mo, who had changed into formal attire, instantly revealed his aura, attracting the heated gazes of many women along the way.

At this moment, a low-key and luxurious business car drove up to the two of them. Then, a very young man got out of the car and respectfully bowed to Su Mo and Lin Zinuo.

“You must be Mr. Su Mo. I am Xiao Li, here to pick you up. Sorry to keep you waiting.”

“It’s nothing.”

“Then please get in the car.”

“Okay.”

Su Mo and Lin Zinuo got into the back seat.

Soon, the car started and drove towards the High Wall.

Looking at the approaching High Wall, Su Mo was also a little touched. Memories from his childhood became clearer little by little.

To be honest, he was quite happy during his time living in the High Wall. Although his health wasn't very good at the time, he didn't suffer any discrimination in the school. On the contrary, he got along quite well with his classmates.

This is also why Su Mo doesn't reject the upper echelons.

Just as Su Mo was lost in thought, the car drove to the entrance of the High Wall. As expected, there would be a routine inspection here.

Five fully armed guards walked up with a murderous aura.

But Xiao Li, who was driving, only lowered the car window and handed over a document.

The captain in the lead took it and glanced at it, then returned the document and waved his hand.

“Let them through!”

Seeing this scene, Lin Zinuo revealed an unbelievable expression. She whispered to Su Mo.

“This is too strong. You don’t even need to be inspected to enter the High Wall?”

“Yeah.”

Su Mo narrowed his eyes. This was indeed a remarkable gesture, but it also indirectly demonstrated Cao Wen’s strength.

Soon, the car drove into the High Wall. Inside, there were rows of futuristic buildings. In the air, one could see many suspended railcars.

Everywhere were intelligent robot servants.

The ground on both sides of the street was paved with special metal square bricks, which could be stepped on at any time to call for intelligent service.

Virtual projection images were everywhere in the air.

If the High Wall in the Imperial Capital was like a retirement paradise, then the High Wall in the Magic City was more like a futuristic city of technology, where the most cutting-edge technology in the world was popularized.

Soon, the car drove to the interior.

Lin Zinuo looked at the scenery outside with great interest.

“How magnificent.”

“The High Wall in the Magic City is known as the economic center of the country. The country’s economic indicators largely depend on the trends here,” Xiao Li, who was driving, said with a smile.

“Shouldn’t the economic trend of the country depend on the Five Dragon Heads?”

Lin Zinuo asked subconsciously.

“It’s different. The Five Dragon Heads can only represent the high-level economy, but they can’t represent the grassroots economy. You should know that 70% of the country’s financial institutions and bank headquarters are here. In fact, the financial equivalent here is not inferior to theirs at all.”

“Oh, I see.”

Lin Zinuo responded somewhat understandingly.

"Also, the financial atmosphere in the Magic City is actually stronger than that of the Imperial Capital in some respects, because this is an open market, relatively free, while the Imperial Capital is more inclined to a planned market..."

Xiao Li explained to Lin Zinuo with great knowledge.

Just then, Lin Zinuo suddenly shouted urgently.

“Careful!”

A very cute pet dog suddenly broke free from its leash and darted over.

Xiao Li frowned and reacted immediately, braking slowly, not slamming on the brakes!

But this operation was actually very correct. Slamming on the brakes could easily cause an accident and affect the passengers in the back. Slow braking would not be very abrupt, but the consequence would be to hit the puppy head-on.

Unsurprisingly, the puppy was killed, and blood splattered all over the ground.

“My Xiao Di!”

A sharp, panicked cry rang out.

Xiao Li turned his head and said apologetically to Su Mo and Lin Zinuo, "Sorry for the trouble. Please wait in the car for a while. I will deal with this matter as soon as possible."

“Okay.”

Su Mo nodded in response. He had seen the whole process just now. This was just an accident, and Xiao Li actually handled it very well.

“Thank you.”

After Xiao Li finished speaking, he opened the car door and went down. At the same time, as soon as he closed the car door, he did not forget to lock it, so as to prevent the perpetrator's emotions from getting out of control and affecting the passengers.

Facts proved that his worries were very correct.

A woman wearing a mink coat and sunglasses lost her mind and angrily accused Xiao Li.

“Why did you kill my Xiao Di, you murderer!”

Xiao Li politely responded, “Madam, your dog suddenly darted onto the road. I simply didn’t have time to react. There are surveillance cameras everywhere here. If you don’t believe me, you can call up all the surveillance footage. According to the law, I am not responsible. In addition, you have to compensate me for the damage to my car, but now I have something urgent to do, so forget about the compensation. Please move out of the way.”

Unfortunately, the lady in front of him had already lost her mind. She was trembling with anger. Her most beloved pet was killed, and the other party was acting as if not asking her for compensation was already being polite. She immediately furiously slapped the hood of Xiao Li’s car.

“Your broken car, ten of them are not worth my Xiao Di, I’m going to call the police…”
