Chapter 140: I'm sorry Bruce, I'm down again
"What the hell do you want to do?" Betty sat across from the white night with an ugly expression on her face: "I've said it all, we're done, I love my boyfriend very much." β
It's over?
But I see that you have obviously dressed up carefully in order to date me......
Bai Ye smiled slightly, and was not allowed to break Betty's turbulent heart, and said:
"Betty, I think you misunderstood, I came out of you this time, not to talk to you about the matter between men and women, but to talk to you about your work."
"Huh?"
Betty looked at Bai Ye, the expression on her face stiffened.
She seemed to have forgotten that, apart from that wrong incident, White Night 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 too embarrassed now, because she had been dressed up for a long time in order to cope with the appointment of the white night, and she thought that tonight would be another sleepless night.
Betty drank tactically and bowed her head slightly: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood." Talk about my work...... Is there anything I've been missing out on lately? β
"Quite the opposite." Bai Ye shook his head and said, "Your work is amazing! Whether it is a colleague or a boss, they are complimenting you, so I want to promote you, you should get a higher position, more salary, in line with your outstanding contribution to the company. β
"So can I get access to the in-depth development of the Desperation Virus?"
Betty's eyes lit up.
As an academic, Betty also has her own academic ambitions, and Desperate Virus is a very powerful project, and she is willing to make her own contribution to this project.
As for the position and salary, it doesn't appeal much to her.
Her father was a lieutenant general in the American Army, and she never knew what it was like to be short of money.
Betty just wanted to improve too much.
"Look, you're in a hurry." Bai Ye smiled lightly and said, "It's not as simple as letting you just upgrade to one level and bring a few more people. I think you also know Betty, some time ago, I established a new company called Mars Military Industries, which acquired the F22 manufacturing division of Stark Group, and now there is a lack of a vice president to preside over the executive affairs, I think Betty you are very suitable for this position. β
The smile and excitement on Betty's face quickly faded, and she looked at Bai Ye fixedly, and said word by word:
"Do I look like a fool who is easy to fool?"
"Of course not!" Bai Ye said: "Betty, you are beautiful and intelligent, why do you ask that? β
"Because you bastard, let me go and be the vice president of your military-industrial complex!" Betty really wanted to splash the water in the water cup in her hand directly on Bai Ye's face, and said angrily: "I'm not the tool for you to catch up with my father so that your military industrial enterprises can get more military orders!" I am also a dignified person, you should not be so disrespectful to me! β
Before, she thought that maybe White Night would be her soul mate and be able to replace the position of the disappeared Bruce Banner, so she had been very entangled in whether she should continue with White Night, but what White Night was doing at this moment made her see the true face of White Night, this is a villain who will do anything to achieve his goals, compared with Bruce Banner's character, it is far worse.
She is a biology major, she has never been involved in military knowledge, and she has no management experience, and Bai Ye pulled her to the position of vice president of the Martian military industry, she knows the reason with her ass.
Isn't it because she is the daughter of a lieutenant general, as long as she holds this position, even if she doesn't do anything, wherever she sits as a clay sculpture bodhisattva, she can bring huge benefits to the Martian military industry and become a liaison tool for the collusion between the military and business in the United States.
This is not the life Betty wants to live!
"When did I disrespect you? Betty, your hat can be buckled too much, a vice president of a military industrial group with a valuation of $30 billion, plus an executive sensible, presiding over the actual work, this kind of position is very important, it must be given to the henchmen in the henchmen, just because it is Betty you, I can let you do it with confidence, how can this become disrespectful to you? Bai Ye spread his hands and said with an innocent face: "Maybe you are misunderstood again, the perspective of looking at things between us may be slightly different. β
Your career line is so deep, I will help you stride forward in your career, and don't let your career line become an ornament, why don't you know the hearts of good people?
"yes!" Betty said sarcastically: "The job I want to do is a biology that can lead human evolution, and you want me to be the executioner of human slaughter, the military industry, an industry with blood on my hands." A big capitalist who maximizes profits and an obscure scholar will of course have different scales of looking at everything between the two. I really owe you a debt of gratitude for giving me a position of great power and a very high salary. β
"Huh!" The corners of Bai Ye's mouth hooked up a smile: "Everyone is a layman, Betty, you can't help but pick yourself too clean." Do you think that you are a white lotus that is independent and left behind? Do you figure out what you were doing before you got into AIM and were professors at Culver University? β
Betty's face was dazed for a moment, and then, as she remembered something, her face quickly turned red.
"Yes, I think Betty remembered, you and your ex-boyfriend, Bruce Banner, worked together for your father, General Thaddeus Roth, on the Army Biochemical Enhancement Project, which aims to recreate the Super Soldier serum created by Abraham Erskine in World War II." Bai Ye smiled and said, "You have also made a great contribution to this project, because you have developed a muscle inhibition primer that can allow individual blood cells to temporarily absorb gamma rays, which has played a great role in the continuation of this project." β
"Betty, you're even willing to do a project like human strengthening, is there any difference between this kind of thing and the military industry? It's all used to kill people on the battlefield! Now that you are criticizing me as an arms dealer with blood on my hands, don't you think you may be schizophrenic? β
"Of course, Bruce and I had no idea what that experiment was really about!" Betty couldn't help but argue loudly: "My father told me that this experimental project was to treat radiation sickness, and I developed muscle inhibiting primers because it could be used to eliminate malignant brain tumors caused by radiation exposure, find a cure for neurodegenerative diseases, and strengthen the immune system." How did I know that my dad would use everything to develop a human enhancement program? β
"If an apology is useful, what else do you need the police to do?" Bai Ye clapped his palms, made a "pop" sound, and said: "If you don't know, you will pass away your responsibility, Betty, you should not be a biological scientist, but a Washington politician!" Whenever politicians in Washington make some scandal, they say they don't know at all, it's the people below who make mistakes, and I'm just blinded...... But do you think the public will believe it? You, with your boyfriend, participated in your father's military experiments, and you told me that you just wanted to benefit humanity? β
"I ......"
Betty opened her mouth, but she really felt that she couldn't tell, it was her father's old bastard who actually deceived her!
She has had a smooth life since she was a child, so she didn't think about what her father, a serious and old-fashioned person, would deceive her about.
Now that I think about it, it really shouldn't be, just because her father is a military, she should be more vigilant about cooperating with the military, these guys think about how to kill people efficiently every day, not what saves lives and cures diseases.
"Alright Betty, stop saying anything that makes me laugh." Bai Ye Zhengse said: "I really sincerely invite you to serve as the vice president and executive director of Mars Military, if you want, when you have mature business means, you can become the CEO of Mars Military" at any time, I believe that with your intelligence, this time will not be too late." β
Well, this woman has a high IQ, and among the biological scientists and engineers of the Osborne Group, she should also have a B+ to A- level, and she is not a waste who can only rely on her boyfriend and father, as long as she is willing to learn business skills, it is not difficult for her to think about it.
"I'm so grateful to Master Osborne for trusting me so much." Betty took a deep breath and said, "But alas, I'm really not the kind of person you think I am. Maybe I did something wrong before, so I shouldn't have gotten stuck in the mud and continued. I'm sorry, but I can only refuse your kindness. β
The position of CEO of a military industrial group with a valuation of $30 billion is very attractive to 99.99999% of the people in this world, but she is not one of them, no matter what, Betty does not want to be an arms dealer who kills people and has blood on her hands.
She lifted her bag and wanted to leave.
Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence.
There's no need to dwell on any longer.
"You're in a hurry again." Bai Ye sighed and said, "Betty, can't your ex-boyfriend Bruce Banner also make you change your mind and make a little sacrifice?" β
Betty Horan paused, looked back at the white night, and said anxiously:
"You know anything about Bruce?"
Bruce Banner has been missing for four years, and even though Betty is his girlfriend, she has not received the slightest news about him, and at this moment Betty did not expect that she would hear about Bruce Banner again from the mouth of the White Night.
"Yes." Bai Ye nodded and said with a smile: "In the past two years, Bruce Banner has been hiding in Hengsan, learning yoga and meditation from some masters, intending to control his emotions...... You should know that because of the human experiments of the two of you, Bruce Banner has become a powerful, eternally angry monster that will escape from his body at the slightest emotion, with catastrophic consequences. β
"Do you really know where Bruce is?" Betty excitedly asked, "Tell me, where is he now?" β
It seemed that as soon as she got the news from the mouth of the white night, she was ready to drop everything and fly to see Bruce Banner.
"Calm down, Betty!" Bai Ye pressed down with his hands and said, "As you scolded me before, I am a qualified, cold-blooded and ruthless capitalist. I'm not the kind of person who is willing to be a boiling sheep in order to fulfill you and send you to reunite with your beloved boyfriend. β
"What do you want?"
Betty calmed down and sat down on the opposite side of the white night again, looking at the white night with a pair of cold eyes.
"Work for me."
"No way!" Betty said resolutely: "This is the only thing that can't be done!" Other than that, as long as I have something, I can give you anything, as long as you tell me, Bruce's whereabouts. β
"Haha." Bai Ye smiled and said, "Betty, you seem a little naΓ―ve, do you think you have any other value to me besides helping me control a military industrial enterprise?" What else can you do, what's something I can't do? β
Betty was stunned.
It suddenly occurred to her that her father was General Thaddeus Ross, and White Night's father was also Norman Osborne, a cold-blooded and ruthless big capitalist, but whatever she could, White Night could do and do better.
Everyone is a Draconian!
"If Betty had insisted on going your own way, perhaps I would have had to tell my father, General Thaddeus Ross, about Bruce Banner."
Bai Ye said faintly.
"How can you do that?" Betty was anxious and looked at Bai Ye: "I always thought you were a good person......"
Of course, Betty knows that her father, General Ross, is still looking for Bruce Banner all over the world, trying to capture him, and then put it on the experimental bench to study the reason why Bruce Banner has become an extraordinary monster, because General Ross wants to create a group of monsters as powerful as Bruce Banner and obey the command, which can help the U.S. Army gain absolute superiority on the battlefield.
"Bruce must not be allowed to fall into my father's hands! Otherwise, my father's old stubborn will kill Bruce, without mercy! β
Are you underestimating your boyfriend?
Where is he so easy to kill?
Bai Ye complained in his heart, and then continued: "Betty, I don't know when, I gave you the illusion that I am a good person. In short, there are only two options in front of you now: first, to serve as the vice president and executive director of Mars Military Industry; Two, I'll tell your father about Bruce Banner's whereabouts, and with your father's fanaticism for the Enabler Project, I think he'll give me enough in return, and I'll be able to achieve what I want. β
"Honestly, I'm not a good person, but I don't want to be a bad person either, Betty, and you don't want to force me to indirectly kill your ex-boyfriend named 'Bruce Banner.'"
Betty gritted her teeth and looked at Bai Ye, she had never felt that a person could be so hateful as the White Night in front of her.
Between the two of them, there are people who have experienced honest treatment and in-depth communication, but this bastard can be ruthless when he can turn his face and threaten her with her boyfriend for the sake of profit, is this really something that people can do?
What kind of man are you?
"Think about it, think it through, I'm not in a hurry." White Night said: "If even Betty doesn't care about Bruce Banner anymore, then who else in this world cares about him?" β
White Night's words hit the soft spot in Betty's heart again.
Anyway, she still has a bastard father in this world, and Bruce Banner's parents have died, and there are no relatives, if even she chooses to give up Bruce Banner, then he is left with himself in this world, and there is no one left.
Sitting in her chair, Betty looked cloudy and pondered for a long time.
And while she weighed and considered, she was still staring at the white night eyes on the other side, she wanted to see this bastard threaten her like this, didn't she have a trace of guilt?
As it turned out, she was wrong, and the bastard really didn't have a trace of shame.
Oh my God, why is there such a bastard man in this world?
It's too far from Bruce Banner's humble and gentlemanly character.
What kind of madness did she have before to roll the sheets with this bastard?
Measure for a long time.
Betty still reluctantly chose to compromise, and she looked at Bai Ye viciously:
"I can take on the position of vice president of Mars Military, and in exchange for that, you must keep the news and secrets about Bruce from my father. If you dare to rebel, I'll make a gas bomb, and we'll both die!" Don't doubt the madness of a female biologist! β
βOKγβ White Night stretched out a hand of friendship to Betty: "The deal is done? β
Betty reached out and high-fived White Night.
After reaching a cooperation, Betty wanted to get up and leave, and now when she looks at Bai Ye more, she will feel like throwing up.
In her life, she has never been wronged like this, she has been coerced by such humiliation, and she remembers Bai Ye for the rest of her life.
"It's all here, don't eat a meal and leave?" Bai Ye greeted with a smile on his face: "You don't have to save money for me like this. β
Save money?
I'm a big Nima!
But Betty thought about it, yes, why did she save money for White Night?
This bastard invited her to eat, and she didn't eat for nothing, and she was hungry now, and she was going to eat and drink a lot, and order whatever was expensive, and empty his wallet.
Betty sat down angrily, took the menu, ordered all the most expensive food in the restaurant, and the food was still a small price, and she also ordered several bottles of the most expensive drinks, which were much more expensive than food.
She rebelled in this way, gulping down food and wine, and every bite she ate was almost the same amount of gold.
Bai Ye doesn't care, how much money can be made by eating and drinking?
As long as Betty wants, he will buy this restaurant and give her a place to eat and drink!
After lunch.
Sending a half-drunk Betty home in the middle of the night.
He retrieved the key from Betty's bag, opened the door for Betty, and helped Betty inside.
"What are you doing in my house?" Betty was drunk and yelled at the white night, "You are not welcome in my family!" You shameless bastard! β
"I'm here to send you home!" Bai Ye said angrily: "If I leave you near the restaurant and let you pick up the corpse, you will feel cool, right?" β
"Then you don't care!" Betty said with a drunken mouth: "I don't want to see your disgusting face!" β
"Hey, you're still doing it?" Bai Ye snorted and said, "You really think I can't do anything about you, do you?" You think Bruce Banner is too comfortable, don't you? β
"You! You promise me! β
Betty's mind was still clear, and when she heard Bai Ye say this, she immediately panicked.
"I promised you to keep Bruce Banner a secret from your father, but I didn't promise you, I won't toss him myself!" Bai Ye threatened: "I can ask a few mercenaries to accompany him at any time to have a good time." β
"Bastard! Do you still have any basic morals of being a human being? β
Betty scolded.
"Nope!" Bai Ye said: "Because I have no morality, no one has ever been able to kidnap me morally. β
Betty: "......"
"What do you want to do?"
"You!" Bai Ye sat on the sofa at Betty's house, crossed Erlang's legs, and said, "Go to your room and change the black silk, and come to see me again." β
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Betty was reluctant, but she took a step forward and went into her room to change the black silk.
"Why is it so slow?"
Bai Ye waited for a while, and impatiently walked into Betty's bedroom, and saw Betty who had changed into black silk, her eyes lit up, she was really beautiful!
"Y-How did you get in? Get out! β
"What is there to hide, between the two of us, what else has not been experienced?"
White Night closed the door to his room.
As the white night approached, Betty slowly retreated, and soon, she had no way to retreat, her back against the wardrobe connected to the vanity 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 hands with both hands, pressed them against the top of the wardrobe, approached Betty's fair-skinned and slender swan-like neck, and kissed it gently, soft and fragrant.
Then he approached Betty's crystal clear ears and blew on a hot breath:
"Betty, you don't want anything to happen to your ex-boyfriend, do you?"
ββ¦β¦β
Betty's half-welcoming and half-refusal movements completely lost her strength, and she could only look at Bai Ye, a hateful guy with tears in her eyes, aggrieved and hostile.
Why are you bullying me so much?
When she propped her hands on the wardrobe and looked at herself in the mirror, Betty couldn't help but shed sad eyes: I'm sorry Bruce, I'm falling again......
