Gu Chen was startled by Sasha’s choice of words. The term “country” was not something anyone could casually use.
Sasha noticed that Gu Chen was special to Song Fan. There wasn’t a specified hierarchy for how Gu Chen should be treated, something Song Fan would have clarified from the start given her personality.
Since she didn’t specify, it meant anything could be discussed with Gu Chen.
Sasha jokingly referred to them as lovers, but he understood that Gu Chen and Song Fan did not have that kind of relationship.

Gu Chen remained silent for a while. He looked at Sasha with a puzzled expression, waiting for an explanation.
“She participated in mercenary missions under the name Asina because we were in desperate need of money at the time. Later, she quit being a mercenary, but many of us who were protected by her were willing to follow her. She bought an overseas island, placed us there, and over time, it has developed into a large-scale operation,” Sasha explained.
“But that doesn’t mean it’s a country,” Gu Chen still couldn’t comprehend.
Sasha laughed. “Of course, it can’t be called a country. After all, we can’t even be self-sufficient. We just treat it as a temporary base. After so many years of development, the original people had their businesses, and they invested money and manpower to transform that island. Now it serves as a military weapons base.”
This time, Gu Chen was truly astonished. As the head of the Gu family, which was already influential, he could command considerable authority. However, Song Fan unexpectedly wielded such significant power.
Gu Chen tentatively asked, “Would other countries recognize you in this way?
“In the chaotic areas, countries are just names. The local armed forces call themselves governments, and they are not as powerful as our forces. Moreover, those who left with Asina back then are now scattered around the world, engaged in various professions, and are all top figures in their respective fields. The combined strength of these people is enough to influence the world. Other countries can only tacitly accept the existence of our ‘country,’ and even engage with us like diplomatic relations,” Sasha proudly explained.
“Now that place has cities, residents, its own laws, and a government. People there can live happily amidst the chaos.”
Achieving this in just a few years, Sasha was understandably proud. They had accomplished something earth-shattering, making countries around the world acknowledge Song Fan’s status.
Gu Chen sighed. “No wonder Song Fan is so mysterious. It seems there’s nothing in this world she can’t do. She has achieved things that others might not accomplish in several lifetimes.”
As Gu Chen spoke, there was a smile on his face. He didn’t believe that women should be confined to traditional roles; those were outdated notions.
Since he could lead the Gu family, he naturally appreciated strong women.
His friends were also like that. Xu Yuan, seemingly carefree but unparalleled in the security industry, and Qi Shuo, a renowned lawyer, were both examples.
Even the seemingly playful duo, Xiao Lei and Xia Rui, excelled in the investment industry, having created their wealth independently from their families.

Upon seeing the expression on Gu Chen’s face, Sasha felt that this man was indeed suitable for their boss. At least he had a handsome face and appreciated Song Fan’s strength.
The two of them then began praising Song Fan endlessly, discussing topics that seemed to grow more exciting as they talked.
When Song Fan returned after dealing with those people, the two men hadn’t finished discussing the previous topic.
“When did you two become so close?” Song Fan wiped off the dust from her face and asked.
Upon seeing that she wasn’t wiping her face carefully, Gu Chen wet the handkerchief and walked over, wiping her face while saying, “Sasha was introducing me to the island and everything about it. I had no idea you were this amazing.”
Song Fan sat obediently as Gu Chen wiped her face, smiling, “Why are we talking about this? I was just thinking of going back to check on it after finishing things here in A City. I heard they’ve upgraded the weapons again.”
“It’s Carina who sponsored the technology. It was a technology she just invented in A Country’s lab, which the A Country government doesn’t even know about yet,” Sasha said.
Song Fan was very pleased. “Now our technology is one step ahead of A Country’s. Back then, they insisted on sending people over, wanting to drive us away. Now, I wonder if they dare to do that..”
