Chapter 55: Investment Amount

At Logan Lab, the front desk delivered Bai Guangcai’s two stacks of project information to Bai Jing’s office.

Bai Jing originally wanted to throw it in the trash, but when she saw a few stacks of data, she couldn’t help but pick it up and read through it carefully. She immediately felt that the project’s development prospects were good.

After searching for relevant information, she realized that she needed 10 million to clinch the project.

But, Bai Jing had no money at the moment, so how could she get it?

While she was feeling depressed, she received a message from Ni Kun.

A picture popped up on the screen. It was a design for a somewhat difficult thermal weapon. Ni Kun’s voice came with the message, inviting her to carry out research for improvement..

Bai Jing narrowed her eyes. After thinking of a way to obtain funding for the project, she called him back.

Ni Kun pushed up his glasses in surprise and asked, “Is there a problem?”

Bai Jing asked directly, “Is there a budget for adjusting the parameters and improving the research mission? There should be a salary for hiring consultants, right?”

Ni Kun was speechless.

Doing research for the country was such an honorable thing, yet she only wanted money? !

This was probably the difference between the mindset of a genius and an ordinary person.

Ni Kun answered seriously, “According to the level of the project, there will be different rewards. For example, according to the thermal weapon you just received, it’s a second-class mission, and the reward is about a few hundred thousand yuan.”

Bai Jing was slightly interested. She glanced at it briefly and said, “What’s so good about a second-class mission? Bring me your most difficult mission!”

Ni Kun drank a mouthful of hot tea and choked in fright. He coughed violently and quickly typed on his computer keyboard to confirm that the chat was normal and that it had not been hacked or tampered with, however, he still cautiously asked for a few pieces of secret information that only a god-like genius knew.

Bai Jing’s smooth answer dispelled Ni Kun’s doubts. With a trembling voice, he asked, “Can you modify the nuclear bomb? This is the highest level mission.”

Bai Jing quickly accepted it. “Yes, but the modification fee needs to be paid in advance… give me a deposit!”

… Why did this research genius seem like a business swindler?

Ni Kun gritted his teeth. After weighing the pros and cons, he transferred five million yuan from his account to Bai Jing. In a mysterious tone, he instructed, “This is a state secret. Don’t mention it to anyone!”

“Logically speaking, the combat division’s mission can only be allocated after it is completed. I made an exception to give it to you!”

“Don’t disappoint me! How many days will it take to complete the transformation? I’m not rushing you… actually…”

As Ni Kun nagged at her, Bai Jing furrowed her brows and answered the deadline. She looked at the balance in her bank account and considered where to get the remaining 5 million yuan.

In the laboratory, Professor Dong and the other researchers were discussing how to apply for funding for the research project. The amount they were asking for was a few million, a huge amount.

That’s right, research projects were always worth money.

Bai Jing thought of Si Qian and her eyes lit up. She immediately took the elevator to Si Qian’s office and pushed the door open.

Si Qian was engrossed in studying the Combat Division’s strategy. When he saw her, he put away the documents. Seeing that Bai Jing was sitting opposite him, he raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Bai Jing nodded and pointed at the two bottles of strength potion.

“I can help you upgrade the strength and endurance of the potion, increasing its performance by 50% . When you use it, it will be more targeted… similarly, if it works on you, you can mass produce it for the general public.”

“But the laboratory will have to pay me an additional five million yuan for the research fee.”

Si Qian looked at her with an unfathomable gaze, while Bai Jing looked back at him with an exceptionally magnanimous expression.

“Although the experimental drug only requires a small amount of capital, it will bring you a huge profit… all of this will need to be converted into a reward.”

Bai Jing discussed with him, but Si Qian’s focus was not on this. “Money, I don’t care.”

He stood up and walked around to Bai Jing’s side. He sat on the desk and placed his two slender legs in front of her. He leaned over and asked, “You think that I need to work on improving my stamina and endurance? It seems that you are not satisfied with my performance in that aspect?”

Si Qian hooked his arm around her chin and suddenly moved closer. His warm and ambiguous breathing was insinuating something.

For a moment, Bai Jing did not understand his teasing. She dodged and kicked the chair away. She put on a fighting stance and said seriously, “Your endurance does need to be improved…”

Si Qian chuckled and lowered the blinds and soundproofing measures in the office.

Inside the sealed room, he controlled Bai Jing’s legs and pushed her onto the ground. Bai Jing thought that the battle had begun and nimbly dodged. She used a roundabout strategy to deplete Si Qian’s stamina. She took advantage of the opportunity and attacked fiercely.

The battle between the two was intense. In between their movements, Bai Jing’s shirt unbuttoned two buttons. The unintentional feeling of lust tightened Si Qian’s throat.

He relied on brute force to push Bai Jing to the ground. He used both hands to clamp her arms and pressed her under his body.
