Chapter 907
Ye Xingguang couldn’t help it anymore and burst into laughter, “So, you weren’t encouraging me to be queen because you were worried about this?”
Is it that funny? This infuriating little mermaid tail!
“I’m worried that you won’t be able to handle the deceit and strife that comes with power!”
“My brother told me to persevere. If the elders see that I’m politically motivated, they definitely won’t let me succeed. Actually, my ultimate goal is to be a titular queen, enjoying the rights supported by the nation. Those constitutional monarchies on land, where the queen is beloved and the country is managed by the cabinet, I certainly don’t want to stay under the sea year after year. I still enjoy the sunshine and starry skies.”
That’s more like it!
“I’ve arranged for Fu Zhuo to go with you. Although his EQ isn’t great, his IQ is up to par. He’s never given me any trouble at work. Having him as your special assistant will keep you from getting tricked without realizing it.”
“Would Fu Zhuo be willing?” She worried about his reliability.
“You saved his life at sea, and he is still fervently grateful. When I was turning the vampire clan leaders, he gave no small assistance. Now, if you asked him to walk through fire and blade for you, he would do it without hesitation.”
Saying this, Lord Ye still felt reluctant and lowered his head to say, “In seven days, I will bring the dowry and come to marry you. Then, watching you ascend to the throne, I’ll be your male empress consort, monopolizing your three thousand consorts.”
Why does that sound so funny?
…
The next day, Ye Xingguang embarked on her journey back to the underwater empire.
Lord Ye sent a helicopter to take her to a coastal city to board a submarine. The entourage included Gui Baili and others, Fu Zhuo, and Xiao Yun leading dozens of bodyguards, a mercenary group headed by Fire Liuli, and a market development team from Ye Corporation.
The reason Lord Ye dispatched a market development team from Ye Corporation was because he wanted to collaborate with companies in the underwater empire, secure agency rights for communication rings, and even directly establish his own R&D team to monopolize the emerging land-based market for communication rings.
After boarding the submarine, except for Ye Xingguang, everyone else was extremely excited; after all, they had seen the underwater city in Zhou Shuangshuang’s live streams, so they were all eagerly looking forward to this underwater journey.
In the submarine’s buffet restaurant, Fu Zhuo chatted warmly with an accompanying officer named Han, inquiring about the companies that were still manufacturing and selling communication rings.
Officer Han was also a talkative person, chatting with Fu Zhuo while they ate.
Soon, Fu Zhuo understood that in the underwater kingdom, communication rings were mainly monopolized by two major conglomerates, Giant Star Group and Galaxy Group, with four or five other groups holding smaller market shares that couldn’t compete with the two giants.
Officer Han said, “If you really want to cooperate, I suggest working with Giant Star Group. The president of Galaxy Group is a tyrannical, paranoid, shameless little demon. Working with Galaxy Group will give you headaches.”noveldrama
“Really? Hearing you say that makes me more interested in Galaxy Group. Officer Han, could you give me information on the president of Galaxy Group? I like a challenge; things without challenges aren’t fun.” Fu Zhuo was boasting.
“Are you sure you’re set on Galaxy Group? Trust me, brother Fu, Giant Star Group is the better choice.” Officer Han earnestly advised.
Fu Zhuo thought for a moment: “May I ask, which group’s communication ring does Her Majesty the Queen wear?”
