Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said
Chapter 204 Three Benefits
"Everyone, thank you for waiting."
While everyone was still pondering Said's standing among Asara's soldiers,
Im walked down the buoyancy corridor with a smile on her lips, her posture elegant and seamless, like a true secretary.
Zoya stood on tiptoe and looked behind her, asking in confusion, "Where's Xiao Kangzi? Why didn't he come with us? Did you guys kill him—"
Silverwing glared at him and immediately changed the subject: "This one..."
"My name is Im," Im said with a smile.
"Ms. Im," Silverwing smiled, "where did the boy you took away go?"
Im smiled and said, "I made a mistake. Your friend is not our boss. To express my apology, I prepared some gifts for him. He is choosing a gift and will be here in a little while."
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief; they had thought Bai Kang had been silenced.
Zoya noticed that the gloom in Xiaomai's eyes had suddenly dissipated a bit. She didn't think much of it, assuming that Xiaomai was just relieved to hear that Bai Kang was alright because she was too worried about him.
In fact, Mai Xiaowen's attitude was not because she heard that Bai Kang was safe and sound, but because of Im's previous words.
I admit my mistake; your friend is not my boss.
This sentence dispelled the possibility that she feared most. Bai Kang's abnormality terrified her; she feared that the person she loved was the person she hated most.
"Thank goodness you're not him..." Mai Xiaowen thought to herself.
But, as if a demon were whispering in her ear, "If he were the ruler of the entire space station, it would be incredibly easy for Im to deceive you..."
Zoya's relaxed heart jumped again after noticing Mai Xiaowen's unusual behavior, and she stared at Mai Xiaowen in astonishment.
Mai Xiaowen's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again, and cold sweat dripped from her forehead, her eyelashes trembling uncontrollably.
"Xiaomai..." She gently grasped Mai Xiaowen's hand. The latter glanced at her, forced a smile, and shook her head slightly to indicate that she was alright.
But the demon in her heart grew clearer and clearer, and its faint whispers lingered in her mind.
"One should not take chances. Think about it carefully. Why do you deserve so much favoritism from him? Mandel Supercomputing Unit, Heart of Africa—would anyone really give away such precious things to someone else out of love?"
Just as no emperor in the world would willingly give away the Imperial Seal of the State.
Mai Xiaowen felt as if she were standing on the edge of an abyss, walking on thin ice, with the surrounding darkness about to swallow her up.
"Let them in."
Suddenly, a chilling voice came from the CEO's office. The voice wasn't loud, but it inexplicably brought immense pressure to everyone.
Mai Xiaowen suddenly raised her head, stood up with a whoosh, and exuded murderous intent.
That's the voice she'll never forget, even if she dies!
The others stared in astonishment at Mai Xiaowen, whose face was contorted with malice.
"Xiaomai, are you alright?" Zoya asked worriedly, holding Mai Xiaowen's hand tightly.
Feeling the pressure in her hand, Mai Xiaowen realized her lapse in composure. After a long silence, she managed to say, "It's nothing."
Everyone present noticed her strange behavior; with that murderous expression, how could she possibly be alright?
But the key now is cooperation, so they could only keep their worries to themselves and plan to ask again when they got back.
Silverwing spoke silently, "Whatever your problem is, let's talk about it after everything is over."
Mai Xiaowen remained silent.
Im squinted, scrutinizing the pretty girl. Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she realized what it meant. She muttered to herself:
"Isn't this the girl the boss arrested a while ago? Is this... a debt of affection for the boss?"
She was overjoyed, but a sense of anticipation suddenly arose within her. Judging from the girl's demeanor, she was probably up to no good.
This is really... so interesting.
As for whether Mai Xiaowen would harm the boss, Im never even considered that possibility, because the boss was invincible.
She smiled and said, "Please come in, everyone."
The group entered the CEO's office.
The president's office is well-stocked. The first thing each mouse does after being resurrected is to rush into the president's office with a pale face and enjoy a delicious meal.
Each attacking team also wanted to occupy the president's excellent observation position, where he could hear everything.
This time, however, no one looked at the points or the card swipes; they all immediately turned their attention to the man sitting in the CEO's office.
Said.
"So...powerful." Wei Long felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy. Even though Said hadn't done anything, he felt like he was facing a sleeping lion.
Red Wolf took a deep breath. The oppressive feeling that Said gave him was stronger than anyone else's. Even when he fought with Thor in Tide Prison, the oppressive feeling was not as deep.
The bee doctor was wondering if he should call for his owner later.
Luna and Gale are both under immense pressure.
Zoya, however, sized up Said several times and whispered, "He looks quite like the quiet Kangzi."
From the moment Mai Xiaowen saw Said, she stared intently at him, her fingernails digging deep into her flesh. She exerted all her strength to suppress the urge to attack Said.
Silverwing let out a soft breath. "Said, we represent reality and have come to keep our appointment."
This collaboration was proposed by Said himself, so there's nothing wrong with him coming to the meeting.
Bai Kang slowly raised his head, his deep gaze sweeping over everyone, lingering for a moment on the resentful Mai Xiaowen, and a twitch appeared at the corner of his mouth beneath the mask.
He knew Xiaomai hated him, but he didn't expect it to be to this extent. Her eyes were practically embedded in his body, making her seem like his father's killer.
No, we have to find a way to ease the tension with the wheat, otherwise we can't live like this, and if this continues, the wheat will turn black.
His gaze swept naturally over Mai Xiaowen, ignoring Im's gloating expression. His eyes then fell on Silverwing, and he calmly said, "Welcome, everyone."
"How would you like to cooperate?" Silverwing asked in a deep voice.
Bai Kang interlaced his fingers, pondered for a moment, and said, "I need to confirm one thing: can you fully represent your side?"
"As long as it doesn't harm our interests, I can represent you fully," Silverwing quickly replied.
Bai Kang nodded slightly. That's right. The fact that so many demon kings were sent to protect them shows that the reality values this cooperation.
"I only need one thing."
"What?"
"military power."
Bai Kang originally thought that Yin Yi would refuse decisively, after all, military power is not something to be trifled with, but he did not expect that Yin Yi would not refuse immediately.
Silverwing frowned and fell into deep thought.
After a long silence, he asked in a deep voice, "What can you bring us?"
Bai Kang had already thought about this.
He smiled and said, "First, I know you can obtain certain supplies from my territory, so I can give you three evacuation slots every day."
"Secondly, those who are my people will not take the initiative to be your enemies. At the same time, I will spread the word in Asara that you are not the enemy."
If Silverwing was already tempted by the first two benefits, then the third condition would be the final blow.
"Thirdly, regarding this world's invasion of your world, you can get my help if needed."
