After the door was pushed open, Meng Shu paused for a moment at the entrance. Chen Chuan saw her take an involuntary deep breath before she finally stepped inside.
He followed her in. The living room had excellent lighting. The autumn sunlight spilled in from outside, making the lavishly decorated reception hall look even more magnificent.
In the center of the hall, beneath an intricate crystal chandelier, sat a heavy, solid wood desk. Beside the desk was a star-globe that stood half as tall as a person, its charts and labels all in an antique style.
Meng Lai, the founder and current head of the Fusion Boundary Company, was seated on the sofa behind the desk.
Fusion Boundary was founded sixty years ago, which meant he had to be at least eighty years old. Yet, the man sitting there looked to be only in his forties or fifties.
