Chapter 701: Ruanruan, Jingjing, Qingqing
Yancheng, Yuhua Commercial Building.
Mortal World Cultural Media Co., Ltd.
In the company's largest conference room, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.
On both sides of the long rectangular conference table.
On one side were the "acquirers" led by the acquisition team from Nebula International Group.
On the other side were the three shareholders of Mortal World.
Wen Ruan, dressed in a beige suit, sat at the head position.
Her peach blossom eyes, which naturally carried a hint of laughter, occasionally swept over Xu Qing sitting upright opposite her, trying hard to maintain a serious expression.
Her gaze flickered, as if contemplating something.
The meeting was nearing its end.Wen Ruan gently closed the document in her hand and spoke in a summarizing tone:
"Regarding the final plan for this acquisition, our legal and strategic investment departments have completed the finalization of details. The specific terms, transfer process, and subsequent personnel arrangements are all in this final version of the agreement. The three of you can review it."
As her words fell, her assistant Wang Dandan immediately stood up.
She placed three thick documents in front of Liu Fangbo, Guo Liyuan, and Xu Qing respectively.
Xu Qing reached out to take it, her face completely serious, forcing an air of elite legal personnel reviewing contracts.
After her close friend Shen Yuyan returned to Yancheng, she had helped transfer all of Tang Song's equity in Mortal World to Xu Qing's name.
Now, holding 40% of the shares, she was the veritable second largest shareholder of the company.
Since this merger and acquisition was a major company decision requiring approval from over two-thirds of the equity, she theoretically held veto power.
Hmph, without my approval, none of you are leaving this room today!
Ahem.
Xu Qing pretended to open the document and began reviewing it seriously.
However, this expression lasted less than a minute.
When she saw the clear numbers on her page, her whole body couldn't help trembling slightly.
Her little butt wriggled.
Her big dark eyes fluttered wildly, her heartbeat instantly out of control.
Cash portion: 16 million RMB.
Equity swap: approximately 0.49% of Nebula International Group (pre-IPO) original shares.
This acquisition was structured as 20% cash + 80% equity swap.
She didn't care about the complex terms later regarding "lock-up periods," "performance bets," or "non-compete clauses."
Her mind was filled with that glittering 16 million with all its zeros.
Sixteen million!
How many novels would she have to write to earn that much?!
I'm rich! Miss Xu Qing is really going to be rich!
With this much money, just putting it in the bank for interest would be enough for me and my bestie to lie flat and idle away every day!
After all, up to now, including the gold bars Tang Song had gifted her earlier, her total savings were less than six hundred thousand.
Now she had reached the top in one step, transforming into a millionaire little rich woman!
The immense happiness made her whole head spin.
She could barely hear what Wen Ruan across from her and the other shareholders were saying next.
"...The above covers all the details we need to confirm."
After who knows how long, the legal representative from Nebula finally closed the document.
"Director Wen, pleasure working with you!"
Liu Fangbo and Guo Liyuan stood up, their faces full of excitement.
The ultimate goal of running a business is nothing more than going public and cashing out.
For content-based companies like Mortal World that rapidly expanded relying on trends but had shallow foundations, independent IPO was still a long, long road ahead.
Full of variables.
Now, being fully acquired by an industry leader like Nebula International Group, which is about to go public.
They had also transformed into Nebula shareholders, riding along for the future IPO. This was undoubtedly a more stable and faster path to wealth appreciation.
This was also the exit method many small and medium enterprise founders dreamed of.
"Pleasure working with you." Wen Ruan stood up as well, her gaze falling on the still somewhat dazed Xu Qing sitting there. She chuckled lightly and proactively extended her hand: "Director Xu, pleasure working with you."
"Ah? Oh oh!" Xu Qing quickly snapped back to reality, hurriedly stood up, and copied her by extending her own small hand: "Pleas... pleasure working with you!"
Two fair hands clasped tightly.
Wen Ruan looked at her comical little expression, the smile in her eyes deepening.
Unnoticeably, she used her fingertip to gently trace a circle in Xu Qing's palm, with obvious flirtatious intent.
Xu Qing jolted as if electrocuted, startled, and retracted her hand like she'd been shocked.
In her haste, her body swayed, almost bumping into the table corner.
Their eyes met;
Wen Ruan's beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of charm and allure.
Xu Qing quickly lowered her head again, pretending to look at the carpet.
This little episode didn't attract anyone else's attention.
Both sides exchanged more pleasantries, confirmed the subsequent handover process.
The meeting officially concluded.
Liu Fangbo personally led Wen Ruan and her team on a tour inside the Mortal World company.
Xu Qing, like a little squirrel who'd done something wrong, tightly hugged that invaluable contract and scurried into her own small private office.
Bang—
The door slammed shut.
All the tension and seriousness on her face instantly vanished without a trace.
Hehehe...
Xu Qing hugged the contract, spun excitedly several times in her office chair, emitting bursts of uncontrollable laughter.
Like a child who'd won the lottery.
Then, she carefully placed the contract on the desk, took out her phone, and clicked several close-up shots of the "16 million" number.
She shared them on Shen Yuyan's WeChat.
Leaving a message: "Sigh, so annoying~ What should I do now that I've suddenly become a millionaire?"
Buzz buzz buzz—
The phone vibrated;
her bestie replied instantly.
Scheming Yuyan: "Got it, give me half later. Also, reminder: Tang Song is on a flight back, expected to arrive at Yancheng International Airport at 7:20 PM tonight. As for where he 'sleeps' tonight, depends on how seductive you are."
Seeing this message, Xu Qing's face instantly turned red.
Really! So what if Little Song is coming back!
It's not like I'm competing for his favor! I don't care! He can sleep wherever he wants!
She snorted proudly in her heart.
Right then.
Knock knock knock—A soft knocking sound suddenly came from the door.
Xu Qing flusteredly put down her crossed legs, sat up straight, cleared her throat and said: "Come in!"
The office door was gently pushed open.
A tall and curvaceous figure appeared at the doorway.
"Dir... Director Wen!" Xu Qing instantly sprang up from her chair, nervously putting her hands behind her back.
The corners of Wen Ruan's mouth lifted slightly. She casually closed the door and walked towards her.
Watching her approach step by step, Xu Qing subconsciously shrunk her neck, her eyes darting around.
Wen Ruan stopped in front of her. A scent mixing high-end perfume and mature womanliness instantly enveloped her.
"Qingqing, what's wrong? After not seeing each other for a while, you've become distant from your big sister?"
"Not at all, hahaha..." Xu Qing looked up and laughed awkwardly.
Her impression of this big sister Wen Ruan was actually quite good.
After all, she had gifted her expensive jewelry right after they met.
And she was a solid positive character in her new novel.
It's just that after being constantly bullied by Xiao Jing and Luna, she had developed a bit of PTSD towards the women around Tang Song.
Plus, Wen Ruan's imposing manner today and those impossible-to-ignore big E-cup "headlights" made her... feel really inferior.
Wen Ruan looked at her timid yet adorable appearance, the smile on her lips deepening.
She loved interacting with little sisters like this.
Much more relaxing than dealing with "monsters" like Su Yu and Jin Meixiao.
Moreover, besides commercial considerations, her acquisition of Mortal World also included the intention of pulling Xu Qing into her own camp.
After all, she currently had too many burdens to bear and needed more people to share the pressure.
Thinking of this, Wen Ruan's face revealed an even more amiable smile: "How about coming to my place for dinner tonight? I reserved a family feast at 'Private Banquet Mansion,' just the two of us."
Xu Qing subconsciously shook her head: "No need, Sister Wen Ruan, I... I'm on a diet recently..."
"With your figure, what diet?" Wen Ruan's gaze swept over her body, finally landing on her small chest, "At most, some fitness and shaping. Perfect, I have an underground gym at home. When the time comes, your big sister can personally guide you."
"Better not..." Xu Qing looked at the other's approaching, overwhelmingly large E-cups, subconsciously shrinking her own small B-cups, her voice weak.
Wen Ruan leaned down slightly, close to Xu Qing's ear, using a magnetic older sister voice: "Qingqing, the merger contract between Nebula International Group and your company... hasn't been officially stamped and finalized yet. You wouldn't want to miss this cashing-out opportunity, would you?"
Hearing this, Xu Qing was stunned speechless, her whole body petrified.
Threat! This is a blatant threat!
How can you do this!
Wen Ruan extended her slender fingers, pinched Xu Qing's plump cheek, and rubbed it firmly.
"Pack your things, get ready to clock out, and come home with your big sister."
After saying this, she gave Xu Qing no further chance to resist, elegantly turned, and left.
Her full, perky peach-shaped buttocks drew enchanting, alluring arcs with each swaying step.
.......
Half an hour later.
Shengyuan Fine Neighborhood, private townhouse area.
Soft lighting.
Xu Qing sat properly on the living room sofa on the first floor.
Her big dark eyes darted around curiously, taking in the surroundings.
This was her first time at Wen Ruan's home.
She hadn't expected her to live in a large villa.
High-ceilinged living room, spiral staircase, and a huge yard...
So luxurious!
But thinking of her contract, Xu Qing's heart surged with immense confidence.
Hmph!
She was about to transform into—
Xu·Millionaire Rich Woman·Qing!
Thinking this, she couldn't help feeling a bit floaty.
Once the money hit her account, she could also buy a villa, keep a cat, hire an assistant...
Just thinking about it felt amazing!
Just as she was drooling over the air.
Tap tap tap—
A light, brisk sound of footsteps came from the staircase direction on the second floor.
Xu Qing looked up.
Wen Ruan was walking down briskly.
She had already changed out of her professional attire into comfortable homewear.
A pure white tight round-neck thermal shirt paired with high-waisted leggings that outlined her curves.
Perfectly accentuating her curvaceous, hourglass figure.
As she moved, her full, ample chest trembled precariously, as if about to break free at any moment.
Her flat, tight abdomen showed faint hints of abdominal muscles.
Her whole person exuded a healthy, confident, yet highly aggressive mature sex appeal.
Xu Qing's gaze uncontrollably landed on the other's breathtakingly large "pandas."
Envious enough to drool.
Damn it!
How can there be such a rule-breaking figure!
How are the rest of us supposed to live!
Purely in terms of visual impact of figure.
She felt that only the blonde mare Anne Kate, whom she'd seen at Xiao Jing's birthday party before, could compare to this big sister in front of her.
"Let's go, Qingqing, why are you still dazing? Come eat."
Wen Ruan came to her side and, without another word, directly extended her toned arm, pulled her up from the sofa.
Held her shoulder intimately, and led her towards the dining room.
The weak, pitiful, and helpless Qingqing had no power to resist in front of the strong Ruanruan.
Soon, the two sat down at the huge dining table made from a single piece of walnut wood.
The table was filled with exquisite homemade banquet dishes meticulously prepared by the top chef team from Private Banquet Mansion.
Steamed red grouper, black truffle baked Australian lobster, golden soup Buddha jumps over the wall... and Xu Qing's favorite dish, tangerine peel sweet and sour ribs.
Each dish was exquisitely plated, generously portioned, and emitted an enticing aroma.
Xu Qing was practically drooling just looking at them.
"Here, try this." Wen Ruan personally served her a bowl of soup and placed it in front of her, "Their Buddha jumps over the wall is the most authentic. Drink more, it's good for beauty and complexion."
"Thank you, Sister Wen Ruan."
Xu Qing quickly picked up the delicate soup spoon, carefully took a sip. The delicious flavor instantly bloomed on her taste buds.
She narrowed her eyes comfortably, looked up, and grinned foolishly: "Mmm—so good!"
Wen Ruan looked at her satisfied expression, the corners of her lips lifting slightly.
She picked up her chopsticks again, selected a piece of snow-white, tender fish meat, and gently placed it in Xu Qing's bowl.
"Eat more. The weather's cold lately, easiest to lose energy and blood."
"Thank you, Sister Wen Ruan!" The foodie Xu Qing smiled, her eyes curving, completely losing the restraint she had when she first entered.
In the following time.
Wen Ruan perfectly displayed the image of a "warm and hospitable big sister."
Continuously serving Xu Qing dishes, pouring juice, chatting with her about recent hit dramas, and industry gossip.
Her words were witty and humorous, occasionally making harmless little jokes with just the right amount of playful innuendo.
She chatted exceptionally well with the wildly imaginative Xu Qing.
The night outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was gentle;
under the pendant light, one woman was gentle and charming, the other lively and cute.
The atmosphere grew increasingly harmonious.
Xu Qing, who was originally somewhat reserved, completely relaxed.
She laughed heartily, her speech even starting to carry a cute little lilt.
She even began enthusiastically complaining about her best friend Shen Yuyan to Wen Ruan.
Ding ling ling—
Xu Qing's phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
Xiao Jing
Seeing the caller ID, the smile on Xu Qing's face instantly froze. She quickly grabbed her phone, stood up, wanting to find a quiet corner to answer.
She and Xiao Jing had always secretly regarded Sister Wen Ruan as the "big boss" around Tang Song.
This current situation was really somewhat awkward.
However, a hand suddenly reached over and grabbed her arm.
"We're all on the same side now, still hiding from your big sister?"
Wen Ruan's voice carried a hint of teasing, her beautiful peach blossom eyes sparkling with an undeniable light.
"This... okay." Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, but ultimately succumbed to Wen Ruan's powerful aura.
She guiltily pressed the answer button, her voice softening: "Hello? Xiao Jing."
"I, I'm not at Lan Feng International Apartment right now, I'm eating at a friend's house..."
"Um... I'm at Sister Wen Ruan's place."
"Ah?! Okay, I, I'll ask for you."
Xu Qing looked up, cautiously glancing at Wen Ruan sitting opposite her, who was watching her with an amused smile, "That... Sister Wen Ruan, Xiao Jing... she also wants to come over and hang out with you."
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Wen Ruan's eyes instantly lit up.
She certainly knew about Xiao Jing's situation.
Especially after hearing from Zheng Qiudong that Xiao Jing had officially become a global special project partner at Dejurenhe and had started taking over Tang Jin's global high-end property assets.
This indicated she might soon enter the core circle of the "system" as well.
Building good relations in advance was essential.
Right now, she was afraid there weren't enough people to share the burden with her.
Because during her time at Tang Jin, whether in group chats or email exchanges, she could clearly sense a tense, oppressive atmosphere, like a storm was brewing.
"Great, no problem! Let her come over. Perfect timing, my wine cellar just received a batch of sweet sparkling wine a couple of days ago. We can have some drinks together tonight."
Xu Qing nodded, replying softly: "We're at No. 6 Villa, East Unit, Shengyuan Fine Neighborhood in Qiaoxi District."
After hanging up.
She let out a soft sigh.
Glanced at the big sister's muscle definition.
She was genuinely a bit scared to face Xiao Jing alone.
Wen Ruan was so "strong," she could probably suppress that little pervert with just her butt, right?!
Over ten minutes later, the smart doorbell in the living room rang.
Xu Qing's phone screen simultaneously received a WeChat message from Xiao Jing: ["I'm here (＾▽＾)"]
"I'll get the door for her." Xu Qing quickly stood up.
"Let's go together." Wen Ruan smiled and followed, casually grabbing a cotton coat to drape over herself.
The night was deep;
the landscape lights in the villa courtyard emitted a soft glow.
As the two stepped out of the villa door, they saw Xiao Jing standing charmingly under the streetlight.
She wore a high-quality black coat, a thick cashmere scarf wrapped around her neck.
Making her sweet, pretty face appear even more delicate and petite.
Her long, black, silky hair gently swayed in the cool night breeze.
Under her wispy bangs were a pair of clear, bright eyes.
"Qingqing!" Xiao Jing happily ran forward, first giving Xu Qing a solid hug, then turned and sweetly greeted Wen Ruan: "Sister Wen Ruan, long time no see."
"Long time no see, Xiao Jing." Wen Ruan looked at this wealthy, beautiful young woman, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly.
She had only met Xiao Jing once before, at Jinxiu Commerce.
Her impression was quite good—a clever, well-behaved little sister, just one who liked to randomly touch her abdominal muscles.
However, in the current "harem struggle" environment where deities were fighting, this small issue was nothing.
Just then, after letting go of Qingqing, Xiao Jing directly spread her arms and hugged Wen Ruan's exaggerated, curvaceous figure.
She even rubbed against her chest affectionately, like a little kitten.
"Sister Wen Ruan is getting more and more beautiful, and your figure is getting even better too."
The corner of Wen Ruan's eye twitched. She subtly freed herself from the embrace: "Hehe, you too, Xiao Jing."
Xiao Jing stuck out her tongue, stood up straight, and said obediently: "Recently I've seen many reports about Sister Wen Ruan, so impressive. I heard Nebula International Group is going to list on Nasdaq?"
"Yes, we're currently in the merger and integration phase. Listing will take some more time." Wen Ruan naturally took her arm, smiling warmly: "Let's go, it's so cold outside, let's go inside and have fun."
"Mmhmm! Perfect chance to see your place, so I can come find Sister Wen Ruan to play often from now on!"
"Sure, you're welcome anytime."
The three chatted as they walked into the villa, warm as spring.
Xu Qing trailed behind the two, her eyes darting around.
Good, good, the perverted Xiao Jing indeed restrained herself a lot in front of the big sister.
Unlike Xu Qing's initial restraint, Xiao Jing seemed very natural.
Holding Wen Ruan's arm, she had her give a tour of the three-story villa.
From the rooftop sky garden to the spacious master bedroom, from the multifunctional studio to the professional-grade kitchen.
Chattering away, constantly praising Wen Ruan's aesthetics and taste.
She also played with Wen Ruan's cat "Snowball" for a while.
Providing ample emotional value.
When the three arrived at the leisure and entertainment area on the basement level.
Both Xiao Jing and Xu Qing's eyes lit up simultaneously.
A huge projection screen, comfortable beanbag chairs, a small bar counter filled with various imported snacks, and a full set of the latest PS5 gaming equipment and VR headsets.
"Wow, this place is amazing!" Xu Qing immediately excitedly pulled out a large bag of chips from the bar, comfortably nestling into a beanbag chair, "I'll play some games first, you two keep chatting."
Xiao Jing laughed and moved closer: "Together! Let's have a match!"
Immediately, the two skillfully turned on the game console and began enthusiastically selecting games.
Wen Ruan looked at these two energetic little sisters, the corners of her lips curving.
She herself was someone who loved life and enjoyed pleasures. Compared to quiet solitude, she preferred a lively atmosphere.
She then told them she'd be right back, went straight down to the private wine cellar on the second basement level, and carefully selected a few bottles of chilled Moscato sweet white sparkling wine.
Returning to the leisure area, she elegantly opened the bottles and poured three glasses.
In the golden-yellow liquid, fine bubbles rose lightly.
"Cheers!"
The three gently clinked glasses.
Xu Qing took a sip;
the sweet taste with hints of peach and lychee made her unable to resist taking another big gulp.
Her cheeks flushed with a faint pink.
Xiao Jing's eyes shifted, suddenly proposing: "Just drinking is a bit boring, let's play Street Fighter 6! 1V1 versus mode. The loser has to drink a penalty shot!"
"Sure, sure!" Xu Qing, who considered herself a gaming expert, immediately rubbed her hands together, eager to try.
Xiao Jing turned her head, looked at Wen Ruan, deliberately provoking: "Sister Wen Ruan, dare to join?"
Wen Ruan's expression was somewhat strange, wanting to laugh but holding it back.
Are you kidding?
She was a genuine first-generation "internet-addicted girl," a natural talent.
From the earliest Nintendo, arcade games, to later online games like World of Warcraft, to King of Glory, League of Legends, even various AAA titles on PS consoles—she was thoroughly proficient in all of them.
And many games, she played at a super high level.
"Alright then, I'll play with you." Wen Ruan chuckled lightly, as if suddenly remembering something, joked: "But—just drinking seems a bit lacking in excitement. How about we change the rules? The loser takes off one piece of clothing? Socks count too."
But beside her, Xiao Jing "sprang" to her feet, her little face flushed, looking at Wen Ruan's tall, curvaceous devilish figure, her eyes shining brightly.
Excitedly said: "Great! This rule is even better! Sister Wen Ruan, let's have a match!"
Wen Ruan was taken aback, not quite understanding why she was more excited than herself, but still nodded readily.
She was naturally playful and had often played various risqué truth or dare games with her girlfriends.
For her, this was just a small scene.
Xu Qing's dark eyeballs darted around, quickly scanning the three of them, secretly calculating the number of clothing items.
She herself was wearing the most.
Over her outer layer was a sweater, under the sweater a base layer, under the base layer a camisole, under the camisole a bra, under the bra... padding.
Hehehe...
Absolute "physical defense" maxed out!
Each with their own thoughts, the three excitedly gathered around the huge projection screen, selected their respective characters.
The game officially began!
First round: Wen Ruan VS Xiao Jing.
After several rounds of intense fighting, Xiao Jing unfortunately lost.
She was straightforward, directly taking off her black cashmere sweater in front of the two, revealing the sexy, slender figure wrapped in a black lace base layer underneath.
Next, Xu Qing took the stage.
After a series of chaotic, flustered maneuvers, she also unfortunately lost and obediently took off her outer layer.
Wine glasses clinked occasionally, the game continued.
Wen Ruan was also getting into the spirit, no longer hiding her strength, displaying astonishing gaming talent and skills.
"Wow! Sister Wen Ruan, you're so good!"
"Ahhh! Xiao Jing, don't block me! It's all your fault!"
"Qingqing, you're cheating! You can't use that sleazy move!"
"Sister Wen Ruan, are you hacking?! Let's switch controllers!"
......
Items of clothing were successively taken off.
Socks, base layers, leggings, camisoles...
Finally, Wen Ruan remained sitting elegantly on the sofa, still wearing her intact homewear, a victor's smile on her lips.
Across from her.
Xiao Jing was left only in basic underwear + panties, her cool-white skin glowing faintly under the light, her slender, sexy body curves fully visible.
Xu Qing wasn't much better;
besides her underwear, she only had a pair of black stockings left on her body.
For a moment, the leisure area was filled with infinite spring scenery.
Luckily, the villa's floor heating was strong, so they didn't feel cold, but the atmosphere became particularly ambiguous and alluring.
"I admit defeat, not playing anymore." Xu Qing's throat moved, she muttered softly.
Xiao Jing's face was red and hot. She bit her lip, raised her hand and said: "Sister Wen Ruan, I'm not convinced, I still want to play!"
Wen Ruan raised an eyebrow, smiled: "Are you sure?"
"Mmhmm! I suddenly thought of a surefire move to counter you. This time I can definitely beat you!"
"Alright, one more round then." Wen Ruan said lightly.
Perfect chance to defeat her thoroughly once and for all, and properly establish her "big demon king" authority in front of these two little sisters.
As soon as she finished speaking, a fragrant breeze rushed towards her as Xiao Jing squeezed right next to her.
Their bodies pressed close together, smooth skin rubbing against each other.
"I want to sit close to Sister Wen Ruan, secretly learn your combo techniques!"
Wen Ruan felt something was off. How come after being beaten so many times...
Xiao Jing seemed... to be getting more and more excited?
The game started again.
Without surprise, Xiao Jing was easily KO'd once more.
The gazes of both Wen Ruan and Xu Qing simultaneously fell on her.
Xiao Jing's face was bright red. She stood up, head lowered, her voice carrying a strange tremor: "Since I lost... then I'll... accept the punishment..."
Saying this, she directly reached her slender arms behind her back and unhooked her bra clasp.
Snap—
It was as if a soft light descended from heaven, illuminating the entire leisure area.
Wen Ruan's smile froze on her face.
Holy crap
No way... you're actually going for real?!
Looking at Xiao Jing's expression—both shy and excited—she felt her worldview was receiving a strong impact.
Xiao Jing... you... are very strange ah!
Shouting in her heart: Sister Wen Ruan! Go on! Quick! Suppress this little pervert hard! Let her know who's the real boss here!
The air, at this moment, became exceptionally quiet.
Right then.
Beep beep—
Click.
From the direction of the entrance leading to the underground garage came the sound of the smart lock being disengaged.
Step, step, step—
The sound of unhurried footsteps echoed.
The three froze simultaneously, almost turning around at the same time.
Immediately after, a familiar figure, carrying the chill of the winter night, appeared outside the B1 leisure and entertainment area.
He wore a simple black turtleneck sweater under a gray coat.
Under the light, his features were clean, his figure tall and straight, his demeanor calm and noble.
Tang Song's steps halted, his composed aura instantly shattering completely.
He stared dumbfounded at the impactful scene before him, filled with immense information and narrative potential.
The older sister, sitting like a queen, dressed in tight homewear.
The little maid, reduced to just underwear and black stockings, curled up in a ball.
The wealthy beauty, standing there naked and trembling.
His throat moved involuntarily, his eyes wide as saucers.
Have I stumbled upon some incredible big secret?!
