Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Also, even though you've known Daisy for so long, I think you still don't really understand what kind of person she is. I can tell you for sure that Daisy doesn't really care about the lives of those researchers."
After saying these words, Hudson left the conference room without looking back. Although there were many unexpected events during the negotiation, the final result was good.
Hudson: Luckily, it wasn't Daisy who came to negotiate with me this time. Otherwise, even if I were to self-destruct with her, that old woman would probably still be able to maintain a calm demeanor.
After Hudson left with his Dark Star fuel, Demulan sat down and took a deep breath. This Hudson was really troublesome. This time, he had put on a more realistic performance in the exercise, and he could say that he had completely immersed himself in the emotions.
Daisy: If you've broken down, just say so. What do you mean by acting and lying to Camille?
"Let's go. After Hudson's people deliver the things, Mary, if you don't see me in the office, just go find me at Daisy's."
After Desmoulin finished speaking, she slowly started walking towards Daisy's office. In any case, she was quite satisfied with her acting this time, and everything was basically developing as Daisy had planned.
"Yes, Ms. Desmoulins!"
Mary knew that Ms. Demulan was about to connect to her external brain again, so she immediately returned to her office and waited for Hudson's people to send over the intelligence they had prepared. She would then deliver it to Daisy's board of directors.
Desmoulins went straight to Daisy's office, pushed the door open, and swaggered up to Daisy before collapsing wearily onto the guest sofa.
"My God, this is really exhausting. You have no idea how troublesome that Hudson is. He's so precocious. When I was his age, I was still working as a regular office worker."
Hearing Desmulan's complaints, Daisy understood that the matter had been largely completed successfully, and she asked:
"What's wrong? Are you under pressure again? Logically speaking, you should be familiar with Hudson's style by now, so why do you still look like you can't adapt?"
DeMullan then began to vent to Daisy about his previous struggles with Hudson:
"You wouldn't believe it, but after I rejected him, I still felt pretty cool. But I didn't expect that even so, I couldn't fool Hudson. I guess this guy really does have some skill."
However, Daisy, who knew Desmoulins well, smiled and raised an eyebrow at her:
"Oh? Is it really like that? I have a feeling that you're at a disadvantage when confronting Hudson, Demulan. You're not... really under his pressure, are you?"
Desmulan, now that he'd been seen through, was trying to put on a brave face. Daisy, why didn't you just say you knew? Luckily, Li and Mary weren't here, otherwise, where would he put his dignity as the security director?
"Just wait and see. I wonder what excuse that bastard Hudson will come up with. Besides, he doesn't know that we already know he has connections with GTI. He probably still thinks he's very mysterious!"
Thinking about the current situation, Demulan couldn't help but laugh. He had to admit he was lucky; his decision to make Xiao Hao his son-in-law at first sight was definitely the best decision he had ever made.
"By the way, how's the space combat suit on Rometheus's side? And Xiao Hao hasn't agreed to cooperate with Hudson yet, has he? I wonder how that bastard Hudson will try to fool them. Do you think we should talk to Xiao Hao about this?"
Chapter 875 Hudson: Agreed!
"Go ahead and tell me. The original plan was to tell Xiaohao this news so that they could start making preparations, okay?"
When Daisy was asked this question by Demulan, she said that this should have been told to Xiao Hao and the others so that they could be prepared. Otherwise, given Hudson's way of doing things, he might just try to fool Deep Blue and the others again.
Seeing this, Demulan immediately made a call to Xiaohao. After Xiaohao answered, Demulan told Zhang Hao about the battle situation.
"Hey, Aunt Desmulan, your call came just in time!"
After hearing the news from Desmoulins, Zhang Hao couldn't help but laugh and cry. Upon hearing this, Daisy immediately sat up straight.
"Damn, Hudson is fast! How much faster is Xiao Hao than us?"
Daisy was also surprised that Hudson had called Deep Blue so quickly, and judging from the time, it seemed that Hudson had called them as soon as he got back.
"Emm...it wasn't much earlier, maybe 5 or 6 minutes faster than you guys. Uncle Shenlan has gone back to his room to talk to him. I wonder what he said to Uncle Shenlan?"
Demulan and Daisy, who were only a few minutes earlier than them, understood that Hudson had simply gone off to be a conman. He hadn't even started preparing the information for their side yet, and he was already planning to tell Deep Blue that everything was settled, right?
"It's alright, Xiao Hao. You guys are going to have to cooperate with Hudson sooner or later anyway. Hudson probably never imagined we'd have this kind of relationship."
"After all, I deliberately played a trick back then. This Hudson probably thinks we don't have a good relationship with your GTI. You know, I deliberately tampered with the documents he could access, all for today!"
Mentioning this, Demulan straightened his back, never expecting that he could have thought so far ahead back then!
Demulan: Hmph, Daisy keeps saying I'm stupid. What do you mean I'm stupid? I may prefer to use force now, but that doesn't mean my intelligence has gone downhill!
Meanwhile, on the Deep Blue side...................
“Deep Blue, I think we can have a proper talk about cooperation now. Just now, I convinced Demulan. After all, it’s all for the sake of rescuing those researchers trapped in the space station. Even if there are some conflicts between us, we have to put that aside.”
Listening to Hudson's nonsense, Deep Blue remained silent. Although he would agree to cooperate with him, he felt uneasy listening to this guy spouting nonsense in front of him.
Zhang Hao: To put it bluntly, Hudson is treating you, Uncle Deep Blue, like a brainless, honest person!
After finishing speaking, Hudson waited for a long time without receiving a reply from Deep Blue. He then began to tell Deep Blue about one of the benefits of their cooperation, saying that as long as they followed his plan, everything would go in a positive direction.
Just then, Zhang Hao poked his head into Shen Lan's room. When Shen Lan saw Zhang Hao, she quickly waved him over and then wrote down a general overview of the situation for him.
Upon seeing Shenlan say that Hudson was quite eager to reach a cooperation agreement with them, but that he didn't yet know if Demulan had truly agreed, Zhang Hao quickly nodded to Shenlan.
Seeing that Xiao Hao nodded in agreement, Shen Lan finally felt relieved and then spoke to Hudson:
"I understand the situation, but on your side, while giving us payment, shouldn't you also arrange for the equipment and other supplies for going to space?"
In Deep Blue's eyes, since the cooperation with Hudson's side had become a done deal, he naturally had to ask for more things in return.
They had already heard that Hudson was a rich but foolish young master, and since they weren't on his side, Deep Blue felt they would be at a disadvantage if they didn't extort more from him this time.
However, this time, Hudson's reaction to Deep Blue's words was different from his previous conversation with Youssef. Instead of being distressed when Deep Blue started making demands, Hudson readily agreed, waving his hand dismissively.
"So, Deep Blue, you've agreed? Hahaha, I enjoy dealing with smart people like you. Here's what we'll do: I'll give you an email address. As for the payment for this matter and the parameters of the people you've assigned, just send them over."
"I, Hudson, assure you, he will absolutely use our family's most advanced technology, which will absolutely guarantee his safety and comfort during the operation!"
Hearing Hudson agree so readily on the other end of the phone, without even a hint of haggling, Hudson stared wide-eyed at Zhang Hao. Good heavens, it turns out that Hudson was only stingy with Said from beginning to end!
After noting down the email address Hudson provided, DeepBlue indicated that they would consider sending the request over.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Lan looked at Zhang Hao beside her, rubbed his head, and said incredulously:
"I was originally planning to put some pressure on him to accept our exorbitant demands this time, since he has always been so stingy before."
"But I really didn't expect this guy to be so agreeable today. He seems really eager to push this through, but actually, this matter is..."
Deep Blue couldn't hold back any longer as she spoke. Poor Hudson, he thought he had everything under control, but Daisy had actually planned everything against him!
Chapter 876 Roy with Red Eyes
Just as Shen Lan and Zhang Hao walked downstairs to share the news with others, Zhang Hao's phone beeped with a new message notification.
When Zhang Hao took out his phone, he was surprised to find that it was actually a message from Uncle Rometheus.
Zhang Hao also opened the chat window between the two of them, and saw that Rometheus had sent him several sample pictures of the Lingxiao Guard prepared for Weilong, as well as a detailed instruction manual.
Immediately afterwards, Rometheus also sent a message.
Rometheus: Xiao Hao, I've finished everything here. If you have time, bring the dragon suit to my place and try it on properly. If there's anything that needs adjusting, I can make the adjustments right away.
Looking at the undeniably handsome Lingxiao Guard, Zhang Hao said he was starting to understand Roy now, since the combat uniform really did look cool!
After Zhang Hao and Shen Lan came downstairs, Shen Lan told them that he had agreed to cooperate with Hudson. Wei Long also said that he had no problem with it, since he would handle everything himself. It's just that Hudson didn't know about this.
After Deep Blue finished speaking, Zhang Hao summoned Wei Long and handed him the chat history he had just had with Rometheus, showing him the combat suit that had been customized for him.
After taking the phone and glancing at it, Wei Long immediately raised his head high. Yes, this was it! This was exactly the effect he wanted!
Wei Long: This Rometheus is awesome! Although he only drew a rough sketch on his tablet, I didn't expect the finished product to be even cooler!
Before this, his understanding of Rometheus came from Zoya and Xiaohao. Although he didn't know why, after Roy went with Xiaohao last time, he started calling Rometheus his best friend.
However, after witnessing Rometheus's power this time, Dragon was completely convinced of its capabilities. Putting aside its functions, Dragon would give it a perfect score just for its appearance.
Hearing the commotion from Wei Long's side, Mai Xiaowen and Luo Yi, who were the first to come and check the situation, also came over. The two of them came up behind Wei Long, one on each side, and looked on with curiosity, wondering what could make Wei Long so excited.
After seeing the combat uniform, Mai Xiaowen couldn't help but marvel. She had heard Wei Long say before how good his taste was.
At the time, she scoffed at it, but unexpectedly, judging from this combat suit, it seems that Weilong's taste has really improved quite a bit. In short, she thinks this combat suit is quite good.
On the other side, when Roy saw the image of the Lingxiao Guard displayed on his phone, his heart clenched instantly.
The combat suit is finished? Why... why does it look so cool? And there are obvious high-tech features on the shoulders and other parts. After seeing the Lingxiao Guardian suit, Roy's eyes immediately turned red.
"Wow! Weilong, you're such a bastard! You're so smug right now, aren't you?! I...I'll fight you to the death!"
Roy first pointed at the dragon with a trembling finger. If Roy's finger could shoot lasers now, the dragon would probably have been killed countless times by now.
But all of this was just a fantasy. In reality, after seeing Roy's vulnerable state, Wei Long didn't hesitate to start his taunting mode:
"Ugh, this is so frustrating. I was already quite capable, but now I'm the only one who can accomplish this. Perhaps this Lingxiao Guard is my reward for being a strong person!"
"Moreover, the instruction manual sent by Rometheus seems to mention that he specially made the combat suit lightweight so that I can use it on the ground!"
As he spoke, Wei Long walked over to Roy's side, then looked at Roy, who was starting to tremble silently, and put his arm around Roy's shoulder with a mocking smile.
"Ah!!! Dragon, you deserve to die! I, Roy, swear I won't rest until I kill you! Red Wolf, you can still put up with this? Aren't you going to join me in taking down this bastard Dragon?!"
Under Wei Long's taunts, Roy, who had been trying to be patient, finally reached his limit. He snatched the phone from Wei Long's hand and threw it back to Zhang Hao. He then called on Red Wolf to join him in teaching Wei Long a lesson.
However, Red Wolf's performance this time was completely different from when Dragon had just returned from the Tower of Babel. When he heard Roy call his name, Red Wolf scratched his head and said:
"Um... this time it seems only Roy can do his best. Didn't Hudson say he'd give us another space combat suit this time? I... hehe, I've been bribed by Dragon."
These words exploded in Roy's head like thunder. He stared at Red Wolf in disbelief, his gaze shifting back and forth between Wei Long and Red Wolf.
"This place...this place is hell!!!"
The backstab from Red Wolf completely shattered Roy's mental defenses, and even Claire, who had been watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but feel sorry for Roy.
Claire: Sigh, this is really a bit tragic. Is this what it feels like to be betrayed by your best friend? Roy, don't blame me. Although you are indeed very pitiful, I don't know why, but seeing you like this, I still can't help but want to laugh!
As for our poor Roy, he also cried and shook off Wei Long's arm that was on him, and then ran back to his room to grieve. Judging from this, Zhang Hao guessed that he wouldn't be able to recover without a table full of his favorite dishes!
Chapter 877 I Forgive You
Fortunately, Dragon and Red Wolf ran to Roy's room together and persuaded him for a long time. They also promised to lend Roy the combat suit next time before they finally calmed him down.
The next day, Zhang Hao and Wei Long drove to the Tower of Babel. After heading straight to the second floor, Wei Long enthusiastically went up to Rometheus the moment he saw him.
Then came the mindless flattery directed at Rometheus. Even Rometheus, who was also very thick-skinned, felt a little embarrassed listening to Weilong's praise.
"Alright, Brother Weilong, you should stop talking now. If you keep going, Uncle Rometheus will probably fly into the sky. Let's try on this combat suit first to see if it fits. After all, we're going to go into space, so it's better to be well prepared."
Seeing the two still chatting away for a long time, Zhang Hao couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to Wei Long.
Upon hearing Zhang Hao's words, Wei Long quickly reverted to his usual normal self and obediently followed Rometheus to the laboratory to begin donning the protective gear and making necessary adjustments.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Zhang Hao exchanged a glance with Zero, who was sitting next to him, and then the two of them went to their room at the same time to start playing games.
After arriving at the room and locking the door, the two turned on the computer and logged into the game. At that moment, 9527 flew out of Zhang Hao's mental space and landed on Zhang Hao's head, then greeted [Zero].
