Chapter 309 Secretary of Defense

Long Die did not think about what had happened with Shen Rong anymore, as the duo went back to Jiang Yue’s office.

Days passed by and Jiang Yue continued working with both Shen Rong and Long Die. During these past few days, Long Die cooked some of Jiang Yue’s favorites and put it in a lunchbox for Jiang Yue and Fu Jin’s lunch.

With Long Die, living next to Jiang Yue, the atmosphere seemed harmonious, warm, and full of love. Even some of the employees observed that Jiang Yue seemed happier. Many assumed that it was just because of their company’s success in the past few months. However, when the news that Jiang Yue refused M Country’s invite spread, many people couldn’t help but make assumptions that Jiang Yue had already got the contract from M Country. They thought that was the reason she didn’t need to go to M Country anymore.

Aside from that, Jiang Yue also decided to withdraw some of her big projects, making more people believe that she would be collaborating with M County’s military soon. Of course, everyone in Wang Empire ignored those rumors.

In fact, the reason Jiang Yue withdrew from all of her big projects, was because of Wang Ruo’s advice to stay low-key as much as possible. Making her name widely known would only attract the attention of more and more people, including both the Li Family and Vercello Family’s enemies.

Jiang Yue continued keeping silent about those assumptions and chose to limit her presence in the media. Although she knew that it was close to impossible, she was still trying her best to, at least, lessen her presence.

On that particular day, however, Jiang Yue received a visitor-a very important person from the M Country: the Secretary of Defense.

According to their intelligence, Jiang Yue was developing a drone that could be used for surveillance. As for the source of that news? No one knew...

No one knew if it was just an assumption, or the Military from M Country got ahold of that information from someone from Jiang Yue’s small team.

"Mr. Secretary, You can’t possibly be planning to invite me to your country because of these rumors, right?" Jiang Yue asked as she crossed her right leg with her left. "These were all rumors without any evidence. If I had such a thing, I would have surely announced it to everyone. I would have surely organized an auction, to take bids for it and earn millions, if not billions of money."

"CEO Jiang, first of all, you don’t need to be so formal with me, call me just Secretary Jia." He smiled amiably. "We know what you are capable of, and we have received information from an anonymous source about an Unidentified drone, flying above your building a few weeks ago. If this drone really exists, then... wouldn’t it be better to have us backing you when the other organizations come knocking at your door?"

Jiang Yue instantly narrowed her eyes at the man in front of her, who was in his fifties. Just what was this guy talking? Were they planning to blackmail her into coming with them, or else they would release that news to the black market? "Are you threatening me and my company, Secretary Jia?"

"I am not." He answered. "But this information is bound to reach the ears of the people from the black market sooner than you think."

Jiang Yue deadpanned at his words. Not threatening? Did those people think that she was stupid? She knew how countries and some organizations worked. They would not stop until they got what they wanted.

"Secretary Jia," Jiang Yue made a deliberate pause. "I have already decided to back out from M Country’s offer. Many companies are vying for that position. I wonder why are you insisting on having me go with you to M Country?"

"This is not...."

"This is about my safety.... I know what you are going to say. Now, if you think that a simple threat will work on me, then you should do better research. I don’t get along well with threats. The people from the black market are not sophisticated enough to know these things. They will only get ahold of this information if you tell them." Jiang Yue stated directly, not wanting to sugarcoat her words.

"We both know that these threats stem from the fact that I declined the opportunity to go to M Country. Now, can you please let me know, why are you so adamant about inviting me, when hundreds of companies in the Tech industry are interested in joining you?" she asked.

"I... " Secretary Jia stuttered while staring at Jiang Yue. He did not expect her to be this blunt in her words. "We think that only you have capabilities to create sophisticated programs, which can help us innovate our military system." He answered, after thinking the most reasonable thing that he could say. After all, it was the Prime Minister himself that asked him to fetch Jiang Yue.

Secretary Jia looked at Jiang Yue who was also staring at him intently, her gaze confident and intimidating. He waited for her answer yet, he heard nothing.

Seeing Jiang Yue stare at him, made the secretary uncomfortable. Just, who was this woman, and why would the Prime Minister personally ask him, a very important individual in the state, to see her? action
