"News has come from the Hellfire Club."

In Professor X's office at the Charles' Genius Academy, several teachers had gathered.

They looked at the message from the Hellfire Club, requesting that they act together.

Jean Grey, the Phoenix. She didn't look at Cyclops; the two had a fight because of Wolverine.

Just as Li Chen had suspected, Jean Grey wasn't a good woman. She was in a relationship with Cyclops, but she couldn't resist Wolverine's charm.

This made Cyclops feel like there was something green on the top of his head.

But Cyclops is quite magnanimous; he doesn't really mind the green.

But he couldn't satisfy Jean Grey.

Jean Grey possesses the Phoenix Force; how could a weakling like him possibly be satisfied with that?

Storm, Oori, looked at the message and asked, "Professor, should we intervene?"

"Erik is still the same as ever; he acts impulsively and is driven by hatred."

Professor X, sitting in his wheelchair, said, "We must stop him, or Mutants will become the enemy of all humanity."

Their faction is relatively moderate and advocates peaceful coexistence with humanity.

It had some effect, but it wasn't ideal; humans have always regarded them as monsters.

Sometimes, Storm and others like her would reflect on whether they had made a mistake in doing what they were doing.

But they had no better solutions.

As long as we exist on Earth, we cannot escape the influence of humanity.

After all, no matter what, humans are the masters of this planet.

"Jin, go to Los Angeles and discuss the details with the Hellfire Club."

Professor X gave the final decision.

"Good."

Jean Grey decided to go out for a walk to clear her head.

She didn't think it was her problem. If Cyclops could satisfy her, then Wolverine wouldn't be needed.

Despite his dissatisfaction, Lao Lei still began preparing for the film's pre-production.

Filmmaking is a massive undertaking, especially Hollywood productions, which often involve hundreds or even thousands of people, with every aspect requiring meticulous attention.

Some people once thought this was a waste of human resources, because China films simply don't need that many people, so they believed this was the root cause of the high cost of Hollywood films.

However, the cost of a film does not determine its quality.

Even if China cinema tries to cut back on budgets, it will still produce bad movies, and Hollywood is no exception.

However, in this regard, we should not cut corners if we can avoid it. High costs do not necessarily mean a good movie, but for such a big production, if we keep cutting costs, it will definitely be a disaster.

After all, not all movies are gore and horror films, and the budget can be kept as low as possible.

Regardless, "Lucy" still needs special effects.

If special effects are involved, the cost can't be too low.

Natasha has also become busy, since she hasn't received formal acting training and recently enrolled in a class to learn acting.

This gave her a feeling of unreality.

Spending so much time with Li Chen made her almost forget that she was a secret agent...

It can only be said that a comfortable life makes people forget their troubles.

Ten days before the summit, Li Chen received a notification from the White Queen that Professor X had sent someone to gather more information.

As the chief 'planner,' Li Chen naturally had to meet with them in person.

So he simply had Li Qianhuan drive to the airport to pick her up.

Li Qianhuan is from the X Academy, so having her as a buffer will make it less likely to cause conflict.

They waited outside, and soon they felt a familiar fluctuation.

A mature woman with a green dress and beautiful red hair walked out, exuding unparalleled charm.

Along the way, everyone stared at her.

This is Jean Grey, a woman who attracts attention wherever she goes.

Green doesn't look good on most people, but she wears it perfectly.

However, Li Chen felt that this was somewhat of a hint...

As China person, he didn't particularly like the color green.

Jean Grey also saw them and walked over.

"Teacher."

Li Qianhuan greeted him honestly.

Li Chen became much more enthusiastic, reaching out to give Jean Grey a gentle hug.

This made Qin feel a little uncomfortable, but she didn't refuse.

She still had some affection for Li Chen, because this batch of Mutants who graduated from the X Academy all lived normal lives, Dazzler Kitty Pryde even became stars.

This is already a very good result for Mutants.

Those students from the past either became extreme or couldn't even lead a normal life.

Sometimes talent is not a blessing, but a curse.

So she didn't reject the enthusiastic Li Chen; he was just a little too enthusiastic, and a hug wouldn't hurt her.

"Beautiful Qin, it's been a long time."

Li Chen whispered in her ear.

"Thank you, Li."

Qin could only reply, and the two seemed to be whispering to each other.

Li Qianhuan glanced at it and then looked at the teacher with envy.

She knew that Jean Grey had become her boss's prey.

However, for Qin, she was also a hunter.

She came here to relax.

"Get in the car."

Li Chen took Jean Grey's hand and then boarded Bumblebee.

He even tickled Qin's palm, but she seemed not to notice and didn't pull her hand away.

"You must be hungry on the plane, let's go get something to eat."

Li Chen made the arrangements directly.

Jean Grey, of course, wouldn't refuse.

Those who know about airplane food in the America know that unless you're flying first class or business class, you won't have a 'slightly better' experience.

But if it's economy class, then "bad" doesn't even begin to describe it; it's absolutely awful.

Unfortunately, America airlines are 'monopolized,' so in order to save costs, they've cut all the free meals in economy class. Giving you a cookie is considered a great favor.

You're unhappy? Then don't sit down!

Airlines are more domineering than you think; they can simply refuse to let you fly, and you have nowhere to complain...

In any other place, this would have been condemned to death, but in the capitalist world, everything is dictated by capital.

Li Qianhuan drove the two to a high-end restaurant halfway up Beverly Hills, where they could see almost half of Los Angeles.

As for her, she was no longer needed; Li Chen had given her a break.

While others are happy to have a holiday, Li Qianhuan is filled with sorrow.

The way she looked at Li Chen was as if asking, "Can I join you?"

Li Chen ignored her and waved for her to leave.

Although he loves rice bowls the most, this is Qin's first time eating them. Isn't this ridiculous?

We should at least wait until she gets used to it before she joins...

Furthermore, Li Chen also needs to understand Jean Grey's personality.

So, only the two of them remained to enjoy lunch.

At this point, Li Chen realized that Jean Grey was actually quite quiet; she hadn't said much until now. To control someone like her, you had to get her to open up.
