Chapter 310 Brilliant!

"No." Jiang Yue"s short answer somehow annoyed Secretary Jia. He was here with goodwill. This company was very lucky to get invited by the Secretary of Defense personally. Yet, Jiang Yue was still saying "no".

"CEO Jiang… This is…"

"I said "No", Secretary Jia, and I will not change my mind. Thank you very much for your offer." Jiang Yue got up from her seat and proceeded towards the door, opening it. It was a clear sign that their conversation was over.

Secretary Jia gritted his teeth and walked towards the door. "I hope you will not regret this." He said before walking out of her office, without waiting for Jiang Yue to say anything else.

Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow at the Secretary"s words. She couldn"t help but wonder if the Secretary was going to actually release that secret information to the black market. However, Jiang Yue already had a backup plan for everything.

She had already predicted that those people would not stop bothering her. Not now, when her skills had already been made public.

When the Secretary left, Jiang Yue instantly talked to Long Die, to schedule a press conference about w.a.n.g Empire"s new product "Cosmos".

"Cosmos" was like the junior version of "Colossus", without all the sophistication that was useful to spy on someone from afar. Of course, Jiang Yue had included some of that features in "Cosmos", but they were not comparable to what the "Colossus" had.

For example the speed. Speed of "Colossus" was 7,200 km/h, while "Cosmos" only flew at 2400 km/h. For some people, that speed could be very impressive. It could even be considered top notch, yet for Jiang Yue, it was very low. However, Jiang Yue deliberately chose that speed to impress everyone. After all, she still needed to sell her products.

After the news was released, once again, Jiang Yue"s invention surprised everyone. Although a surveillance drone was not something new, the specs of Jiang Yue"s drones were something that no one was able to accomplish before.

Of course, that move instantly shocked the Secretary of Defense, who was still in B Country. He was full of hopes that Jiang Yue would encounter troubles, because of the news that he had released on the black market. They a.s.sumed that Jiang Yue was keeping it a secret, because of its special capabilities. But who would have thought that she would release the news, the moment he stepped out of her office?

Brilliant!

That was the only word that the Secretary of Defense could find to describe Jiang Yue"s move. However, that brilliance was not necessarily good for his mission.

But what could he do? He could only grit his teeth while watching Jiang Yue on the news, answering some questions about her new invention. Secretary Jia was one of the few people trusted by Prime Minister. So, Prime Minister specifically tasked him to bring Jiang Yue to M County. Secretary Jia vowed to not fail the Prime Minister.

Watching Jiang Yue, only made him realize that his task would not be as easy as he thought it would be. The Secretary once again gritted his teeth as he dialed a number to activate his plan B and that was to involve Jiang Yue"s friends.

Jiang Yue was very secretive when it came to her relations.h.i.+ps, yet, everyone knew that her circle involved a few people that she had brought from Xin City. That included Bai"Li and Shen Rong: the two most vulnerable people in her circle of friends.

The Secretary of Defense knew, although Jiang Yue looked tough on the outside, she had a soft spot to people, who were important to her. A good example of that was when her cousin had been shot instead of her. According to their research, Jiang Yue was the one, who personally killed the person, responsible for her cousin"s wounds.

That situation clearly showed that Jiang Yue had a soft spot for people close to her. Just like how she was helping her friend to establish a name in the fas.h.i.+on industry.

Of course, the Secretary was not wrong in his a.s.sumptions. Jiang Yue was indeed soft when it came to her family and friends.

With these thoughts in mind, the Secretary of Defense asked for both Bai"Li and Shen Rong"s files, to see if he could exploit a weakness. He first looked at Bai"Li"s file and was disappointed when he didn"t find anything.

Bai"Li was like a clean slate. Of course, that was because Jiang Yue had deleted everything about him when she recruited him. Bai"Li had no family nor vices that they could use against him.

Then, his eyes turned towards Shen Rong"s file. Instantly, his eyes lit up. That woman"s life was pitiful and complicated. There were many things in Shen Rong"s life that he could exploit. The Secretary instantly called a few people to take care of his new plans. He then called the Prime Minister to let him know of his genius ways.

At that point, the Secretary of Defense did not even consider the possible changes that Jiang Yue could bring if she indeed set foot to the M Country. That was only because he was totally unaware of the truth. Of course, if he knew, then he would have never agreed to do that, no matter how much the Prime Minister asked him to.
