Chapter 231 Chapter 231: Young Boyfriend

Dreams - A more advanced form of movies, allowing people to experience virtual reality. It is the most popular form of entertainment in the Mechanical Alliance. Illegal dreams, often made by recording prohibited imagery or by removing sensory coefficient limits, offer a more intense and realistic experience, leading to strong addiction.

Diane looked at the article in her hand titled "How 'Dream' is Destroying Today's Youth."

It listed numerous cases of young people who became unproductive and reclusive due to their obsession with dreams, ultimately becoming social outcasts. The illegal "Black Dream" were particularly harmful, filled with all sorts of incorrect value systems. For young people with weak willpower, these dreams were like poison, potentially leading to a series of mental illnesses including, but not limited to, personality disorders, antisocial behavior, and violent tendencies.

At this point, Diane couldn't read any further.

She put down the document, closed her eyes, and took several deep breaths, trying to calm her heaving chest. When she opened her eyes again, they were filled with cold and piercing light.

"Little Keyji..." she said calmly, her voice like the calm before a storm.

With an expressionless face, Diane was about to call and mobilize personnel from the group to fly directly to the Mechanical Alliance for apprehension when she suddenly paused, thought of something, and quickly dialed a new number.

"Hello, this is Sin City's Complaint Internal Line. How may I assist you, Miss Diane?"

"I need to see Lady Lena."

"Sorry, dear, we don't have your meeting scheduled."

"I'll be at the Demon Tower in fifteen minutes."

"Dear, you—"

Before the customer service succubus could finish speaking, Diane had already hung up. She didn't even bother changing her clothes, simply threw on a coat, took the elevator to the underground garage, started the car, and sped towards the Demon Tower.

....

"You want to know his identity? Alright, he is, let's say... my little boyfriend."

"Little boyfriend?" Diane furrowed her brows deeply, quickly growing a bit more agitated. "Lady Lena, I hope you can give me a serious answer. I'm not in the mood for jokes."

Lena's reply was straightforward: "I'm not joking with you."

After a moment of silence, Diane just kept staring at Lena for nearly a minute, but unfortunately, she couldn't discern anything from the succubus's face.

"If you insist on being so frivolous, then don't blame me for leaking this explosive news. I believe it won't even take a day for all the major media in Sin Garden to go crazy over it."

"Sure, go ahead. It was bound to happen sooner or later anyway, but..."

Facing Diane's threat, Lena, with her legs crossed, looked welcoming. She paused halfway through her sentence, then, seeing Diane's expression tense up, she slowly said:

"Miss Diane, you wouldn't want your brother to be bullied in the Mechanical Alliance, would you?"

Diane clenched her fists, filled with regret. She deeply regretted trusting the words of this succubus. Now, she had handed over her vulnerability to someone else.

However, soon after, as someone capable of being the chairwoman of a corporation, Diane calmed down.

Realizing she would no longer get any useful information from Lena, she prepared to leave. But before she did, she had to repeat her warning to Lena one more time.

"Lady Lena, if something really happens to my brother, indeed I can't do much to you, but I hope you can protect your little boyfriend for a lifetime."

"Tsk, Chairwoman Diane, if your brother indeed makes a name for himself, how would you repay me then? After all, my little boyfriend has a knack for nurturing people. Even if your brother just follows him around as an aide, he'll probably impress you when he returns~"

"The Quis Group will naturally reward you well, and your... little boyfriend too."

"No need to bother with that; our demands aren't high. How about this? Although you're a bit old, coming over to warm our bed should be enough, don't you think, Chairwoman Diane?~"

In response to the succubus's twisted humor, Diane didn't get angry. Instead, she returned a sweet smile.

"I don't think that's a good idea. What if your human little boyfriend ends up liking me and abandoning you, an old succubus of several hundred years? Then I would feel too guilty towards our beloved City Lord."
