"Ah, when will we eat?" Sitting on the plane and gazing out at the clouds, Yang Xiaoyou yawned and murmured.
During this trip to the Middle East, although unexpected events occurred, they managed to complete their original plans while also assisting with an additional mission.
They laid a solid foundation for Hive Security Company in the United Arab Emirates. With such a clear lesson learned this time, the United Arab Emirates now has a comprehensive excuse to expand its special operations forces, leaving their 'allies' without a suitable reason to object. After all, IA indeed had pressed down on the information this time.
At the same time, for them, directly expanding would likely bring more disadvantages than benefits. It was evident that the most practical approach was to establish a relationship similar to that with IA, by 'hiring' a third-party organization to achieve some form of cooperation. This organization could not be from another country that would provoke backlash from their 'allies.'
Undoubtedly, with a foundation for cooperation, Hive Security Company could fully take on this role. When the global spotlight shifts to the upcoming Arab Spring, Hive Security Company could position itself as a key player and likely gain even greater benefits than anticipated.
Even after the upheaval occurred, the lingering turmoil in Tokyo would draw attention away from it.
No matter how significant the changes in Tokyo were, it was not irreplaceable on a global scale. Cities like Shanghai and Osaka thrived precisely because of Tokyo's downfall.
Although various entanglements initially inflicted considerable damage on the global economy, the subsequent reconstruction efforts required various materials and supplies that stimulated the market and somewhat mitigated the impact.
However, the unique role of the Middle East in the world remained irreplaceable.
Moreover, if memory serves correctly, it was here that things escalated to a fever pitch, attracting most of the world's attention when P seized the opportunity to announce their achievements. Under the maneuvering of their current leadership, they ultimately managed to retain their gains and rapidly became a giant in the virtual network industry.
Now negotiations between Hive Security Company and P had entered their final stages. As the Second Largest Shareholder and with provided security forces, they secured their rightful interests.
If calculated solely based on financial aspects, returns from investments in P's shares would even surpass profits from arms sales by a significant margin.
A year ago, with only the meager funds from selling the virus, Yang Xiaoyou had taken the first difficult step. Now, reflecting on the achievements gained since then, a sense of daze filled her eyes.
Thanks to a solid structure and her own foundation, in the face of the Major Incident, Hive Security Company had already begun to take shape as a potential giant.
"Free food is always tempting." After stacking two Sandwiches together and stuffing them into her mouth, Yang Xiaoyou's cheeks puffed up like two round balls as she chewed, her mind wandering.
She then discreetly pinched some crumbs and tossed them to her pet, which was clever enough not to mistake her for food when she had lost consciousness in that Gladiatorial Arena. That would have truly been a tearful situation.
Having raised this creature for over a year, she naturally developed feelings for it. Moreover, it was a treasure in itself; carrying it around was like having a mobile virus Antibody and Vaccine. Thus, it was only natural for her to pamper it like a little lord.
"Ahhh!! Weimar, I'm hungry! Why is there nothing to eat again? It's driving me crazy!" Just as Yang Xiaoyou was still chewing and had yet to swallow everything, another piece was shoved into her mouth. A somewhat familiar voice came from the front of the first-class cabin.
The cabin door opened, and a beautiful girl with silver hair stormed out, looking as ruffled as a lion.
"Ah!" While chewing, Yang Xiaoyou's forehead broke into a cold sweat upon seeing that familiar figure.
It was none other than the Hli Princess, who had temporarily lost power at home and had been completely dormant lately—her partner and potential rival from Fia Haek Media.
Seeing the same scene as their first meeting made Yang Xiaoyou feel overwhelmed. The clashing habits of the two meant that if they were on the same flight, conflict was inevitable.
"Hey, look who I found! Which jerk took all the leftover meals? Oh right, it's you! These are all mine!" The mischievous creature, already in a frenzy, saw Yang Xiaoyou's stuffed cheeks and immediately exploded with anger. It let out an adorable growl from its throat and began snatching away whatever food Yang Xiaoyou had left.
Without hesitation, it plopped down in the empty seat beside her and started munching away while hoarding its spoils like a thief.
During their first meeting, Yang Xiaoyou had refrained from drawing unnecessary attention. However, after the recent encounters in Tokyo and having obtained information from the so-called Father of Mechas, their relationship had shifted. Following the robbery, he wasted no time in retaliating.
The two of them became entangled in a struggle over food until a Flight Attendant intervened, unable to watch any longer. Just as they stopped and managed to protect a portion of the food, Yang Xiaoyou felt a murderous gaze directed at him—it was the One-Eyed Weimar standing nearby.
Now seeing her again, Yang Xiaoyou was somewhat surprised to sense a familiar feeling after briefly attuning himself to her presence. Given her physical disability and psychological trauma, it seemed nearly impossible for her to grasp the concept of momentum. Yet this time, she exuded an aura that resonated with him.
It appeared that her spirit had undergone a transformation due to some event. This fellow, who had overcome significant challenges to rediscover momentum—even if she had only just entered this level—was not to be underestimated.
Noticing the change in Weimar and realizing that both of them were on the same flight heading to the Chinese Empire, Yang Xiaoyou felt a vein throb on his forehead. He couldn't shake the suspicion that these two fellows might have come to stir up trouble in the Chinese Empire while the troublesome princess was temporarily sidelined.
Previously, Qian Kai, who was responsible for security at Red Dragon Security and had also begun to grasp momentum, seemed closely tied to this violent one-eyed woman's obsession.
Although their confrontation in Tokyo might have pushed Qian Kai to break through to this stage, it was evident that he would find it challenging to compare with this one-eyed fellow who had overcome such formidable obstacles.
"What's up? If you're considering joining our company, I can share my food with you," Fia said ambiguously while nibbling on the stolen food, using her 'Bait' to entice Yang Xiaoyou.
Seeing what represented his worth as an 'investment,' Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but twitch his mouth in response.
