A poisonous snake's bait is always sweet, just like the Fruit of Wisdom in the Garden of Eden.
"Ai ShuQiao, do you think you can bribe me with money? Do you think I'd be stupid enough to work for you after I've seen how cruel and vicious you are? "
If it wasn't for Ai ShuQiao's orders and the fact that Ai ShuQiao's bodyguards weren't far away from the door, I might have used violence against this demonic woman.
"You don't have to work for me." Ai ShuQiao replied in surprise, "The Christmas present I'm giving you and Ai Mi doesn't have any strings attached. Since you both helped with the development of BWK, you can consider this as a bonus."
I really couldn't understand what Ai ShuQiao was planning.
"A bonus for doing nothing?"
"That's right." Ai ShuQiao's expression changed, "As long as you don't do anything."
I suddenly realized that Ai ShuQiao was hinting to me. She already knew that she attracted the attention of the CIA and the National Security Agency. She also knew that they contacted me, so she bribed me in the hopes that I wouldn't ruin her plans.
I couldn't help but sneer because I saw through Ai ShuQiao's true intentions, "You won't die if you don't court disaster. Do you think you can escape punishment after being targeted by two of the world's most powerful countries?"
"There won't be any punishment!" Ai ShuQiao's sneer was obviously more professional than mine, "My BWK can force the most stubborn terrorists to speak up and stop a potential 911 type threat. Its value in military and political battles is indescribable. In exchange for the manufacturing method of BWK, the US government would let me go even if I committed a heinous crime like Ishii Shiro from Unit 731. Not to mention that there's no concrete evidence of my 'sacrifice'. "
"It's the same for China. They don't want the US to control BWK alone. Rather than saying that they want to take down my company and bring me to justice, it's more like they're monitoring each other. They're afraid that BWK's secrets will fall into the hands of one party, and they're also guarding against a third party … To make an analogy, I'm like a nuclear physicist like Albert Einstein during World War II, do you understand?"
"Life is like Chinese chess on a small scale, but it's like Go on a big scale. Let alone a game between countries. Wars between countries do not abide by the rules, and there is no bottom line. My little 'violation' of the law would not be an excuse to punish me. In short, the CIA and NSA are exaggerating about you. They are only using you for their own benefit. If I am taken down, your fate will only be worse! "
"How tragic?"
Although Xiao Yin had come to a similar conclusion through her karmic calculations, I still wanted to hear Ai ShuQiao's words in person.
"It's very simple." Ai ShuQiao pushed her ironed curly hair back. "BWK's technology is like nuclear technology. It can't be leaked easily. Once I'm brought down, you, Ai Mi, and Professor Yu will either be silenced or imprisoned for life. You and Ai Mi might even be used as guinea pigs …"
"Before that, Professor Yu will develop an antidote for BWK! I'll also think of a way to neutralize Ai Mi's and mine … "
"Do you think that's possible?" I already lost count of the number of times Ai ShuQiao interrupted me. "Although Professor Yu participated in the early stages of BWK's development, he doesn't even know the complete method to make BWK. How could he create an antidote and neutralize your and Ai Mi's special constitutions?"
I was hit hard. In fact, Professor Yu's research had reached a bottleneck.
Ai ShuQiao changed to a more gentle tone. "If there is anyone in the world who can develop an antidote for BWK and neutralize your and Ai Mi's special constitutions, then it would be Professor Yu's senior, 'King of Poison' Klinger. For my sake, even if you beat him up, I can let him off the hook. I suggest that you don't become cannon fodder for the intelligence department. Just enjoy your high school life wholeheartedly. As long as Klinger's antidote is successfully developed, I will immediately give it to you for free. Isn't that a very beautiful ending? "
This condition made me hesitate. Professor Yu's expertise was in human modification, not pharmacology. It would be extremely difficult to develop an antidote without enough information. If Ai Mi and I could really get the antidote from Ai ShuQiao …
"We just need to wait?" I asked to confirm.
"That's right, as long as you can live your high school life in peace and don't play dirty in front of your mother."
Ai ShuQiao paused and added, "I'm a person who will be rewarded for meritorious deeds and punished for crimes. Although you resisted me, you didn't cause any substantial harm to me. Instead, I made you fall into a coma for eighteen months and you lost your precious youth. In order to make up for your loss, I can even use BWK to help you achieve wishes that can't be achieved through normal means. "
"What do you mean?" I expressed my confusion.
Ai ShuQiao read out some names on her phone, "Ren XiaoQin, Shu Sha, Gong CaiCai, Xiong YaoYue, Zhuang Ni … There are quite a few beautiful girls in your class. Have you never thought about starting a harem and including all of them? I can inject a thought into them and make them fall madly in love with you, and they wouldn't mind sharing you with others … "
"Don't you dare!" I jumped up from the waterbed in anger, "You're raping them! I don't need you to do anything, all you have to do is let Klinger research the antidote! "
"That's right." Ai ShuQiao smiled, "These people have already been immunized by your BWK spray. If I can't research the antidote, I won't be able to inject a thought into them for at least two years. "
In other words, once the antidote is successfully developed, BWK's immunization will no longer be an effective barrier? It seems like Ai ShuQiao didn't only research the antidote for me and Ai Mi.
At this time, Ai Mi knocked on the door and asked: "Can I come in? Did you guys get into an argument? "
Ai Mi carefully walked into the bedroom after getting Ai ShuQiao's permission. She held my hand and pulled me back onto the waterbed, afraid we would have an argument.
Ai Mi ordered three hot drinks and desserts from the French chef. The French chef was happy that someone appreciated his culinary skills and he served it to us with a flushed face.
This time, Ai Mi also ordered coffee, while Ai ShuQiao's hot drink was still black tea.
"I might be running for governor of California next year."
Ai ShuQiao said indifferently to Ai Mi, but I was so shocked that I almost scalded my tongue again.
"What? You want to be the governor of California after doing so many bad things? "
Ai ShuQiao didn't mind. She sipped the black tea in her cup and asked: "If Schwarzenegger can do it as an Austrian immigrant, why can't I? The American dream is that you can do it if you want to. If I can do it, why wouldn't I? "
"I support my mom! You can do it, mom! "
I'm not sure if it had anything to do with Ai Mi looking at the list of assets on the printed paper, but she raised one hand to show her loyalty.
"Good." Ai ShuQiao smiled with satisfaction, "From today onwards, I'll be doing charity work in both China and America to increase my popularity. Americans value the family harmony of the candidates. Ai Mi, you used to be a star in the entertainment industry, so your support will be very important to me. I'm sure that as long as you stand next to me, you can get countless votes from young people. "
Ai Mi, who didn't like her own fans, was a bit hesitant, but she looked at me and nodded: "As long as my mom doesn't object to me being with my brother, I'll fully support my mom's campaign!"
Ai ShuQiao smiled bitterly, which was rare for her. "During my election and tenure, you two can't make your relationship public. Otherwise, the voters will think that I didn't teach my daughter well … But you two can do whatever you want in secret. Anyway, you two don't care about formalities, right?"
"That's right." Ai Mi replied, "As long as my mom gives me enough money to buy a new island, I'll hold a secret wedding with my brother and have a secret honeymoon there!"
Who wants to have a honeymoon with you! I'm only concerned about when Ai ShuQiao can bring out the antidote for BWK! Making a deal with Ai ShuQiao is like asking a tiger for its skin, I can't let my guard down until I know what she really wants!
"Don't worry, it's not Christmas yet." Ai ShuQiao waved her hand at Ai Mi, "Out of business considerations, I'll be spending most of my time at the Emperor Building. You guys can come find me at any time, and I might also visit you guys at Qing Zi High School at any time. In short, I won't disappoint you guys this Christmas."
After making that promise, Ai ShuQiao got up and called for the French chef: "Pierre, I'm a bit hungry after eating your desserts, prepare lunch for me … oh, I forgot you don't speak Chinese."
Then she repeated what she said in French, then she ignored us and walked to the RV by herself.
Damn, Ai ShuQiao knows Chinese, English, and French. Ai Mi knows Chinese, English, and Russian. They both know three languages, it's giving me a lot of pressure!
"What did you and my mom talk about?" Ai Mi asked me quietly after Ai ShuQiao left, "You didn't fight with my mom, right? My mom has a poison needle hidden on her wedding ring! "
No wonder she's like a viper, she actually installed a poison needle on her wedding ring! I was wondering why she was rubbing her wedding ring for no reason! It turns out she was checking if the mechanism was in a state where it could be triggered!
I summarized Ai ShuQiao's words to Ai Mi. Ai Mi was not used to Ai ShuQiao's sudden generosity.
"Mom suddenly wants to play politics, so does she need my support? It's not strange that my mom does things as she pleases … Anyway, it's not harmful for us, right? Mom's medical company is making a lot of money, shouldn't we help her spend it? We're both risking our lives for the development of BWK! "
Ai ShuQiao did not visit Qing Zi High School on the same day, but instead went to the Emperor Building. Maybe she had something to discuss with her subordinate, the Black Holy Infant.
Although I was conflicted, I might have to negotiate with Ai ShuQiao in the future — — at least I have to get her to release her brother Huo Jiangdong.
