Chu Nan and Susan turned around and saw a slightly chubby middle-aged white man with a bald head standing at the door.
At this moment, his eyes were wide open in surprise.
“Chu Nan, from the information, this should be the first time you’ve come to Los Angeles or even Earth, right? How did you provoke the Night Demon Brotherhood?”
Chu Nan looked at him seriously and stood up.
“Are you the chief researcher, Tahm Kench?”
“That’s right, it’s me.” Tahm Kench hurriedly put away his shocked expression and stretched out his hand to Chu Nan with a smile, “Chu Nan, I’m very happy to see you. I welcome you on behalf of the Earth Federation Research Institute.”
Chu Nan went forward in surprise and shook his hand.
“It’s so late, why aren’t you resting?”
“That’s right. I’ve been waiting for you to come.” Tahm Kench nodded, then turned to glare at Susan and sneered, “If not for someone delaying your journey, I should have seen you at least an hour and a half earlier than now.”
Chu Nan was a little puzzled, “You want to see me so badly?”
“Of course!” Tahm Kench immediately nodded in affirmation, “Chu Nan, you’re extremely important to our Chamber of Commerce’s ongoing research. I can’t wait for you to immediately start cooperating with our research. I can’t wait to start working with you!”
“Alright.” To his surprise, Chu Nan actually nodded, “Then let’s begin now.”
“Ah?” Tahm Kench was immediately stunned. He had only exaggerated his mood but did not expect Chu Nan to directly agree.
“Hahahaha…” Seeing Tahm Kench’s expression, Susan held her stomach and laughed wildly.
Tahm Kench glared at Susan with a black face and turned to look at Chu Nan with a troubled expression.
“About that… It’s a little too late now after all. Most of the researchers are resting. I’m afraid I can’t organize enough people to start researching…”
“There’s no need.” Chu Nan shook his head, “Isn’t your research usually to record the changes in my relevant data? I can follow the research plan you formulated previously. There shouldn’t be a need for too many people.”
“Sure, I can. I just need to change the experiment process. However…” Tahm Kench frowned, “Why are you in such a hurry?”
“Because I have an appointment tomorrow afternoon, I only have time from now until noon tomorrow.”
“Only such a short period of time?” Tahm Kench was stunned, “That’s too insufficient. I hope you can stay with us for a month, oh no, half a month, oh no, a week is fine too. In short, less than a day is really too insufficient.”
“That’s impossible.” Chu Nan shook his head, “Even if I don’t have an appointment, I still have to participate in the entrance test of Star Cloud Academy in two days. This is my main goal in coming to Earth. I only came here in passing.”
Seeing Tahm Kench frown, Chu Nan added, “Of course, if I pass the entrance test of Star Cloud Academy, I’ll have more time on Earth in the future and can come here often to participate in experiments.”
Hearing this, Tahm Kench’s expression softened.
“Alright, since you really don’t have time, I can’t force you. I hope you can successfully pass the entrance test of Star Cloud Academy and allow us to cooperate more smoothly in the future.”
“No problem.”
After the two of them finished discussing, Chu Nan turned to ask Susan, “What’s your next arrangement?”
“Of course I’m going home. What arrangements can there be? Why? You want to keep me overnight?”
Chu Nan helplessly shook his head. “No, I just feel that if you leave like this, you might be attacked by the Night Demon Brotherhood again. It’s not safe.”
Susan’s expression changed as she looked at Chu Nan deeply before grinning.
“Haha, you’re actually worried about me. We’ve only known each other for less than two hours, right?”
“I’ve just healed you. I don’t want anything to happen to you immediately,” Chu Nan said calmly.
“Is that so?” Susan replied softly. After a moment of silence, she smiled again, “Don’t worry, I’m not useless. Although the Night Demon Brotherhood is terrifying, those guys are only a group of hooligans under the Night Demon Brotherhood. Even if they’re not terrifying, I have many methods to deal with them. If there’s really no other way, I can still hide at Uncle’s place for a few days…”
“Uncle?” Tahm Kench suddenly snorted heavily, “If not for your damned uncle sending you out, how could our guest receive such a rude welcome? Let me tell you, this guest is the esteemed Star VIP of our Noctem Chamber of Commerce. If anything happens to him, your uncle won’t even be able to protect himself. How can you expect him to protect you like before?”
Originally, when she heard Tahm Kench criticize her uncle, Susan had an angry expression on her face, as if she wanted to curse back. However, when she heard the latter part, her expression turned to fear.
She looked at Chu Nan and asked in disbelief, “You… you’re actually a Star VIP?”
“About that…” Chu Nan scratched his head in embarrassment, “I guess so. It’s only one-star…”
“Oh my god, you’re really a Star VIP!” Susan shouted in shock before asking Chu Nan worriedly, “You… you won’t find trouble with my uncle, right? Although something happened on the way, aren’t you fine now? Don’t blame my uncle. If you want to blame someone, blame me, okay? As long as you don’t find trouble with my uncle, I’ll do anything you want? Really! Just like what you did to me just now, I’ll do anything!”
“What did you do just now?” Tahm Kench turned to look at Chu Nan in doubt.
Chu Nan felt even more awkward and hurriedly waved his hand.
“I don’t mean that. Speaking of which, I have to thank you for helping me discover a clue.”
“Clue?” Susan and Tahm Kench were stunned.
“This has nothing to do with you.” Chu Nan took a deep breath and said to Susan seriously, “Don’t worry, I won’t find trouble with your uncle over such a small matter. I’m only here to participate in the research and will leave tomorrow at noon. I won’t care about anything else, understand?”
Susan was relieved. She patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
“That’s great.”
After a pause, she suddenly opened her arms and pounced forward.
However, Chu Nan quickly took a step back, causing her to miss.
Susan staggered two steps before barely stabilizing her body.
She glared at Chu Nan in embarrassment.
“I only wanted to kiss you as a thank you. Why did you dodge?”
“There’s no need. Have you forgotten that I’m still a timid virgin?” Chu Nan smiled at her and nodded at Tahm Kench.
Tahm Kench immediately understood and ignored the stunned Susan before leaving the guard room with Chu Nan.
Seeing the two of them disappear out the door, Susan curled her lips and reached into her arms to touch it.
She muttered softly, “Tsk, still a virgin? He’s clearly so skilled when touching me just now…”
