Chapter 141 I’m sorry Bruce, I’ve fallen down again
"What on earth do you want to do?" Betty sat across from Bai Ye, with an ugly expression on her face: "I have already said that we are over. I love my boyfriend very much."
it's over?
But I saw that you had obviously dressed up carefully for a date with me...
Bai Ye smiled slightly, not wanting to expose Betty's turbulent heart, and said:
"Betty, I think you misunderstood. I came out to you this time not to talk to you about things between men and women, but to talk to you about your work issues."
"ah?"
Betty looked at Bai Ye, her expression froze.
She seemed to have forgotten that, except for that wrong incident, Bai Ye was still his boss.
It seems to be a normal thing for a boss to ask employees to talk about career issues.
This made her feel so embarrassed now. Fortunately, she had to dress up for a long time to cope with Bai Ye's appointment. She thought that tonight would be another sleepless night.
Betty drank water strategically and lowered her head slightly: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood. Talking about my work issues... Is there something unexpected about my work recently?"
"On the contrary." Bai Ye shook his head and said, "Your work is great! Both your colleagues and your boss are praising you, so I want to promote you. You should get a higher position and more jobs." The salary is in line with your outstanding contributions to the company."
"Then can I have access to the in-depth development of the Extremis virus?"
Betty's eyes lit up.
As a scholar, Betty also has her own academic ambitions. Extremis Virus is a very powerful project, and she is willing to make her own contribution to this project.
As for the position and salary, they were not very attractive to her.
Her father was a lieutenant general in the American Army, and she had never known what it was like to be short of money.
Betty just wanted to improve too much.
"Look, you are in a hurry." Bai Ye smiled softly and said, "It's not as simple as asking you to just upgrade one level and bring a few more people. I think you know Betty, some time ago, I established a new company called Mars Military Industry has acquired the F22 manufacturing department of Stark Group, and now it lacks a vice president in charge of general affairs. I think Betty, you are very suitable for this position."
The smile and excitement on Betty's face quickly faded away. She looked at Bai Ye and said word by word:
"Do I look like an easy fool?"
"Of course not!" Bai Ye said, "Betty, you are both beautiful and wise. Why do you ask?"
"Because you bastard asked me to be the vice president of your military-industrial company!" Betty really wanted to pour the water in the glass of water directly on Bai Ye's face, and said angrily: "I'm not your father. So that your military industrial enterprise can obtain more military orders! I am also a dignified person, you should not disrespect me like this!"
Before, she thought that maybe Bai Ye would be her soul mate and could replace the disappeared Bruce Banner, so she had been struggling with whether she should continue with Bai Ye, but what Bai Ye did at this moment made her I have seen Bai Ye's true face clearly. He is a villain who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. Compared with Bruce Banner's character, he is far behind.
She majored in biology and had never had knowledge of military industry or management experience. Bai Ye had promoted her to the position of vice president of Mars military industry. She could figure out the reason with her buttocks.
Isn't it just because she is the daughter of an Army lieutenant general? As long as she holds this position, even if she does nothing and sits like a clay Buddha, she can bring huge benefits to the Mars military industry and become a liaison for the collusion between the American military and businessmen. tool.
This is not the life Betty wants to live!
"When did I disrespect you? Betty, you are taking too many hats. A vice president and executive director of a military industrial group valued at 30 billion US dollars is responsible for the actual work. This kind of position is very important. It must be It's for the confidant among my confidants. Just because you are Betty, I can let you do it with confidence. How can this be disrespectful to you?" Bai Ye spread his hands and said innocently: "Maybe You misunderstood again, our perspectives on things may be slightly different."
Your career line is so deep. I will help you make strides forward in your career and prevent your career line from becoming a decoration. Why don't you recognize the good people's hearts?
"Yes!" Betty said sarcastically: "The job I want to do is biology that can lead human evolution, but you want me to be the executioner of human beings, military industry, an industry with hands stained with blood. A big capitalist who maximizes profits and an unknown scholar will of course have different views on everything. I should really thank you for being willing to give me a position with great power and high salary. .”
"Haha!" A smile appeared at the corner of Bai Ye's mouth: "We are all common people, Betty, you have picked yourself too clean. Do you think you are a white lotus that is left behind in the world and independent? You understand, What were you doing before joining AIM and becoming a professor at Culver University?"
Betty's face was blank for a moment, but then, remembering something, her face quickly turned red.
"Yes, I think you remember Betty, you and your ex-boyfriend, Bruce Banner, worked together on your father, General Thaddeus Ross, on the Army's Biochemical Strength Enhancement Project, which was designed to recreate Abraham E. The super soldier serum created by Skin during World War II." Bai Ye chuckled and said, "You have also made a huge contribution to this project because you developed a muscle-inhibiting primer that allows individual blood cells to temporarily absorb gamma rays. , played a big role in the continued advancement of this project.”
"Betty, you are even willing to do projects like human enhancement. Is there any difference between this kind of thing and the military industry? They are both used to kill people on the battlefield! Now you are criticizing me as an arms dealer with bloody hands, you Don’t you think you might have schizophrenia?”
"Of course Bruce and I didn't know the real purpose of that experiment at all!" Betty couldn't help but argued loudly: "My father told me that this experimental project was to treat radiation sickness. The muscle inhibition primer I developed was because it could To eliminate malignant brain tumors caused by radiation exposure, find treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, and strengthen the immune system. How did I know my father would use all of this to develop human enhancement programs?"
"If an apology is useful, why do you need the police?" Bai Ye clapped his hands and made a "pah pah pah" sound, and said: "You don't know a word, and you completely shirk your own responsibility. Betty, don't you I should be a biological scientist, and I should be a Washington politician! Whenever there is a scandal among Washington politicians, they will say that they don’t know at all, and the people below are the ones who made the mistakes. I was just deceived. ...But do you think the public will believe it? You, and your boyfriend, participated in your father's military experimental project together, and you tell me that you just wanted to benefit mankind?"
"I……"
Betty opened her mouth, but she really felt like she couldn't explain clearly. It was her father, that old bastard, who actually deceived her!
She had had such a smooth life since she was a child that she never thought about what her father, a serious and old-fashioned man, might do to deceive her.
Now that I think about it, it really shouldn't be the case. Just because her father is in the military, she should be wary of cooperating with the military. What these guys think about every day is how to kill people efficiently, not how to save them. life, cure disease.
"Okay Betty, don't say anything that makes me laugh." Bai Ye said seriously: "I really sincerely invite you to serve as the vice president and executive director of Mars Military Industry. If you are willing, when you have matured With your business methods, you can become the CEO of Mars Military Industry at any time. I believe that with your intelligence, it will not be too late."
Well, this woman has a very high IQ. Among the biological scientists and engineers of the Osborne Group, she should have a B+ to A- level. She is not a waste who can only rely on her boyfriend and father. As long as she is willing to learn business skills , I think it’s not difficult for her.
"I'm very grateful to Master Osborne that you are willing to trust me so much." Betty took a deep breath and said, "But unfortunately, I am really not the kind of person you imagined. Maybe I did make mistakes before, then I shouldn't get stuck in the mud and continue. I'm sorry, but I can only refuse your kindness."
The position of CEO of a military-industrial conglomerate valued at US$30 billion is extremely attractive to 99.99999% of people in the world, but she is not one of them. In any case, Betty does not want to be a murderer with hands full. Bloody arms dealer.
She picked up her bag and wanted to leave.
Not enough words to speculate.
There is no need to dwell on it any longer.
"You're anxious again." Bai Ye sighed and said, "Betty, can't your ex-boyfriend Bruce Banner make you change your mind and make a small sacrifice?"
Betty suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Bai Ye, and said anxiously:
"Do you know anything about Bruce?"
Bruce Banner has been missing for four years. Even Betty, as his girlfriend, has not received any news about him. At this moment, Betty did not expect that she would hear about Bruce Banner again from Bai Ye's mouth. Information.
"Yes." Bai Ye nodded and said with a smile: "Bruce Banner has been hiding in Hengsan for the past two years, studying yoga and meditation with some masters in order to control his emotions... You should know this, because the two of you Through human experiments, Bruce Banner became a powerful and eternally angry monster. As long as his emotions were a little excited, the green monster would run out of his body, causing catastrophic consequences."
"Do you really know Bruce's location?" Betty asked excitedly: "Tell me, where is he now?"
It seemed that as soon as she heard the news from Bai Ye, she was ready to drop everything and take a plane to meet Bruce Banner.
"Calm down Betty!" Bai Ye pressed his hands down and said, "Just as you scolded me before, I am a qualified, cold-blooded capitalist. I am not the kind of person who will send you to be with your beloved just to fulfill your needs. I am reunited with my boyfriend and am willing to be a troublemaker."
"what do you want?"
Betty calmed down and sat opposite Bai Ye again, looking at Bai Ye with a pair of cold eyes.
"Work for me."
"No!" Betty said firmly: "This alone won't work! Besides, as long as I have something, I can give you anything, as long as you tell me the whereabouts of Bruce."
"Haha." Bai Ye laughed and said, "Betty, you seem a bit naive. Do you think you have any other value to me besides helping me control a military industrial enterprise? Other things you can do , is there anything I can’t do?”
Betty was stunned.
It suddenly occurred to her that her father was General Thaddeus Ross, and Bai Ye's father was also the cold-blooded capitalist Norman Osborne. Whatever she could do, Bai Ye could do it, and do it better.
Everyone is a Celestial Dragon!
"Betty, if you insist on having your own way, maybe I will have to tell your father, General Thaddeus Ross, about Bruce Banner."
Bai Ye said quietly.
"How could you do this?" Betty was anxious and looked at Bai Ye: "I always thought you were a good person..."
Of course Betty knew. Her father, General Ross, was still looking for Bruce Banner all over the world, trying to catch him, and then put him on the experimental table to study the reason why Bruce Banner transformed into a supernatural monster, because General Ross wanted to Creating a group of monsters as powerful as Bruce Banner and able to obey orders can help the U.S. military gain an absolute advantage on the battlefield.
"We must not let Bruce fall into the hands of my father! Otherwise, my old stubborn father will definitely kill Bruce without mercy!"
Are you looking down on your boyfriend too much?
How could he be killed so easily?
Bai Ye complained in his heart, and then continued: "Betty, I don't know when I gave you the illusion that I was a good person. In short, there are only two choices in front of you now: One, serve as the deputy director of the Mars Military Industry President and executive director; second, I will tell your father the whereabouts of Bruce Banner. With your father's enthusiasm for the enhanced human project, I think he will give me enough benefits in return to achieve the goal I want."
"To be honest, I'm not a good person, but actually I don't want to be a bad person. Betty, don't force me to indirectly kill your ex-boyfriend named 'Bruce Banner'."
Betty gritted her teeth and looked at Bai Ye. She had never thought that a person could be as hateful as Bai Ye in front of her.
The two of them are people who have experienced honest and in-depth communication with each other, but this bastard is ruthless for profit and threatens her with her boyfriend. This is really something that people can do. ?
What kind of man are you?
"Think carefully, think clearly, I'm not in a hurry." Bai Ye said: "If even Betty you don't care about Bruce Banner, then who else in the world will care about him?"
Bai Ye's words hit the soft spot in Betty's heart again.
In any case, she still has a bastard father in this world, and Bruce Banner’s parents have passed away, and he has no relatives anymore. If she chooses to give up on Bruce Banner, then he will only be in this world. I am left without any relatives.
Sitting on the chair, Betty looked gloomy and thought for a long time.
While she was weighing and considering, she was still staring at Bai Ye's eyes opposite her. She wanted to see that this bastard didn't feel any guilt at all for threatening her like this?
It turned out that she was wrong, this bastard really didn't have any shame at all.
God, why are there such bastard men in this world?
It's so different from Bruce Banner's gentlemanly character.
What kind of madness did she have before to have sex with this bastard?
Measure for a long time.
Betty reluctantly chose to compromise. She looked at Bai Ye fiercely:
"I can serve as the vice president of Mars Military Industry. In exchange, you must keep the news and secrets about Bruce from my father. If you dare to go back on your promise, I will make a poison gas bomb and we will both die together! Don't! Doubt the madness of a female biologist!”
"OK." Bai Ye extended a hand of friendship towards Betty: "Is the deal concluded?"
Betty reached out and gave Bai Ye a high-five.
After reaching a cooperation, Betty wanted to get up and leave. She would feel sick if she looked at Bai Ye more than once.
In her life, she had never been so wronged or humiliated and threatened. She would remember Bai Ye for the rest of her life.
"You're already here, why don't you leave without having a meal?" Bai Ye greeted with a smile on his face: "You don't have to save money for me like this."
save money?
I'll save you a lot of money!
But then Betty thought about it, yes, why should she save money for Bai Ye?
This bastard invited her to dinner, and he didn't eat for free. She was hungry now. She wanted to eat and drink, order whatever was expensive, and empty his wallet.
Betty sat down angrily, took the menu, and ordered all the most expensive food in the restaurant. In addition, the food was still a small price. She also ordered several bottles of the most expensive wine, which was much more expensive than the food. .
She rebelled by consuming delicious food and wine, and every bite she ate was almost the same amount of gold.
Bai Ye doesn't care, how much money can he make by eating and drinking?
As long as Betty was willing, it would be no big deal for him to buy this restaurant and provide her with a place to eat and drink!
After lunch.
Bai Ye sent the half-drunk Betty home.
He found the key from Betty's bag, opened the door for Betty, and then helped Betty in.
"Why did you come into my house?" Betty drunkenly growled at Bai Ye, "You are not welcome in my house! You shameless bastard!"
"I'm here to send you home!" Bai Ye said angrily: "If I leave you near the restaurant and let people pick up your body, you will feel better, right?"
"Then don't worry about it!" Betty said drunkenly, "I don't want to see your disgusting face!"
"Hey, are you still excited?" Bai Ye snorted and said, "You really think I can't do anything to you, do you? You think Bruce Banner is living too comfortably, right?"
"You! You promised me!"
Betty was still conscious, but when she heard Bai Ye say this, she immediately panicked.
"I promised you to keep the secret about Bruce Banner from your father, but I didn't promise you that I wouldn't bother him myself!" Bai Ye threatened: "I can ask a few mercenaries to accompany him at any time. Have a good time."
"Asshole! Do you still have any basic morals as a human being?"
Betty cursed.
"No!" Bai Ye said, "Because I have no morals, no one can ever kidnap me morally."
Betty: "..."
"What do you want to do again?"
"You!" Bai Ye sat on Betty's sofa, crossed her legs, and said, "Go to your room and change into black stockings, then come see me again."
"ah?"
"Um?"
Betty was reluctant, but she took a step forward and went into her room to change into black stockings.
"Why so slow?"
Bai Ye waited for a while, then walked into Betty's bedroom impatiently, and saw Betty who had changed into black stockings. Her eyes lit up, she was really beautiful!
"You, why did you get in? Get out quickly!"
"What's there to hide? Is there anything we haven't experienced between the two of us?"
Bai Ye closed the door to the room.
As Bai Ye approached, Betty slowly backed away. Soon, she had no way to retreat, and her back pressed against the wardrobe connected to the makeup mirror.
She looked at Bai Ye's evil smile, and the heat between her breaths hit the skin on her face, making her shiver.
Bai Ye grabbed Betty's hand with both hands and pressed it against the wardrobe. He leaned close to Betty's fair and slender neck that looked like a swan, and kissed her gently. It was soft and fragrant.
Then he approached Betty's crystal clear ears and blew a breath of hot air:
"Betty, you don't want anything to happen to your ex-boyfriend Bruce Banner, right?"
"..."
Betty's half-greeting and half-rejecting movements completely lost their power. She could only look at this hateful guy Bai Ye with tears in her eyes, aggrieved and hostile.
Why are you bullying me like this?
When she held the closet with both hands and looked at herself in the full-length mirror, Betty couldn't help but shed a sad look in her eyes: I'm sorry Bruce, I've fallen into despair again...
