I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 733: Transaction

Translator: Lordbluefire

Why did King attach so much importance to the Karl family?

The Karl family wasn’t as powerful as Country A to begin with. Among the three major families, it had always been the weakest one. However, a few years ago, the King Consortium suddenly began to support the Karl family.

This caused the Karl family to rise and gradually pull ahead of Country A, which then became the weakest one.

As to why King supported the Karl family, and what kind of transaction and agreement they had reached, it was unknown to the outside world.

Shen Ruojing pondered with a frown. “So, what exactly is going on?”

Chu Cichen’s eyes flashed a dim light. “I have a rough guess and have sent someone to investigate. Let’s wait.”

“Okay.”

With these words from Chu Cichen, Shen Ruojing felt relieved.

She knew that whatever he wanted to do, he could definitely do well.

Country Y.

Foreigners typically retained their surnames and incorporated their parents’ names to their own. Consequently, there might be numerous individuals named Karl within the Karl family. However, only one Karl assumed visibility to the outside world, representing the entire Karl family as he ventured outside.

It was the very same Karl who cooperated with Song Chen.

At this moment, Karl was having dinner with Song Chen.

Karl’s face was a bit dark. “Your Dr. Xu is so useless. He didn’t even find someone to accompany him in death. If he could have taken that woman with him and let Shen Ruojing experience the pain of losing a friend, our next threat would be more effective!”

Shen Ruojing and Jing Zhen had always said that they would not give up his patent, no matter what the exchange.

But when their relatives died one by one in front of them, they would eventually compromise.

In their plan, Rong Rong was just the first pawn of the Karl family. Her death was a small lesson that Karl had prepared for Shen Ruojing. The next one would be her other friends and relatives…

But unexpectedly, Dr. Xu did not kill Rong Rong!

Upon hearing this,Song Chen’s eyes flickered and he lowered his gaze. “After all, he is a researcher, not a killer.”

Karl sneered, “I think you are too soft-hearted. If it wasn’t for my timely arrival, would you have let Dr. Xu’s parents go and ruin our plans?”

Song Chen looked at him with a mocking smile on his face. “1 just took a different path from you. I let Dr. Xu’s parents go just to make Shen Ruojing and the others lower their guard against me. After that, I can carry out my self-sacrificing strategy…”

Karl scoffed, “Self-sacrificing strategy? You think they will hand over the patent because of you? You’re dreaming. You really think highly of yourself, don’t you? Jing Zhen has been trying to assassinate you, and neither Shen Ruojing nor Chu Cichen take you seriously. There’s no one in this world who cares about you, so what kind of self-sacrificing strategy are you going to use?” Upon hearing this, Song Chen’s fingers tightened around his bowl, his veins throbbing on the back of his hands.

But he suppressed his anger and calmly ate some food.

Seeing that Song Chen did not refute, Karl felt that his ridicule was enough. He had taken revenge for the time when Song Chen let Chu Xiaomeng go privately. He then asked, “By the way, have you dealt with Dr. Xu’s parents?”

A gleam flashed in Song Chen’s eyes. “Not yet.”

“Not yet? Their son is such a waste, so those two old folks have no need to exist anymore. Just kill them and send their pictures to Shen Ruojing. It could serve as a warning!”

Song Chen shook his head. “I don’t think it’s appropriate.”

“What’s inappropriate?” Karl’s eyes revealed a sense of danger. “Song Chen, are you planning to save those two old folks now that you’re submitting to me again?”

Dr. Xu’s parents had initially been put on a plane, but Karl’s men intercepted them at the last moment.

Song Chen then immediately showed signs of submission.

Looking at it now, could it be that Song Chen intentionally submitted to save the lives of those two old folks?

As Karl was thinking this, Song Chen spoke, “That’s not what I meant. Killing them only serves as a warning. Moreover, you’re right. Shen Ruojing and Dr. Xu are not familiar with each other, so his death did not have a big impact on her. Even if Dr. Xu’s parents were killed, she probably wouldn’t feel anything. Haven’t you noticed that she hasn’t tried to negotiate with us ever since Dr. Xu’s death? This shows that she doesn’t care about the life or death of Dr. Xu’s parents! If so, killing them would just be a waste, but keeping them alive could be useful.”

“What use?” Karl narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Song Chen spoke, “Of course, it’s to show our remaining subordinates that even if they fail their mission outside, we will still take responsibility for their families.”

Song Chen put down his bowl and looked at Karl. “If we kill Dr. Xu’s parents, won’t our brothers who work with us feel disheartened? There’s a saying in China, ’more righteousness means more help, less righteousness means less help’. I don’t think Mr. Karl wants to be the one with less righteousness, right?”

Karl frowned.

He sneered, “Song Chen, I advise you to be sincere. If you dare to play any tricks, I’ll have them killed instantly!”

Song Chen silently let out a sigh of relief when Karl wasn’t looking.

He nodded, his fingers tightening again. “Since they are in your hands, you’ll need people to watch over them. Why not hand them over to me?”

Karl gave him a look with a mocking smile.. “Do you think I’m stupid?”
