I’m Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl

Chapter 832: Alliance Expansion

After leaning Chinese businesses actually sell alcohol to minors, as expected, Ai Mi wanted to drink alcohol.

“I can buy cola and chips in America, but if it’s alcohol…”

Although it’s an undeniable truth that you can do anything you want with money in both China and the United States, the strict alcohol regulations in the United States is quite troublesome.

“Manservant, if you can buy some alcohol while Peng TouSi isn’t watching…”

“No.” I rejected it before she could finish speaking, “I could be lenient on you for eating chips and cola, but alcohol is absolutely not allowed. Alcohol isn’t any food for you while your body is developing. Also, what if you buy some counterfeit alcohol and turn blind and get brain damage?”

“Huh?” Ai Mi’s face was filled with displeasure, “Are you not going to love me anymore if I’m blind and have brain damage? Can your love not withstand any trials? I think I’ll be just as beautiful even if I can’t take care of myself anymore.”

“Hey, can you stop using counterfeit alcohol as way to test my love? Also, my love for you is simply familial love, okay?”

“I might become crazy after getting drunk…”

“Why would you ask me to buy you alcohol if you know that.”

“There’s a female entertainer who is a couple years older than me that works for my mom’s company. She got drunk after a fan meet and ended up having a threescore with two of her fans. She’s basically become free material for those reporters…”

“Don’t you already know about the harms of alcohol? So why do you still want to drink?”

“That’s why on top of helping me buy alcohol, you also have to keep an eye on me to prevent me from doing something stupid when drunk…”

“It’s better to just not drink if you know you’re going to crazy when you get drunk…”

“What a joke.” Ai mi slapped her hand on the jade throne’s armrest. “There’s also the possibility of getting pregnant when you make love. Are we never going to make love because we’re afraid of getting pregnant?”

“Can you change ‘we’ to ‘everyone’, so it doesn’t sound so ambiguous?”

“No.” Ai Mi rubbed her hand angrily. It looks like she hurt her hands earlier when she slammed her hands down.

“Anyways I’m not going to buy alcohol for you…”

Ai Mi completely ignored me and continued to say: “Regardless if I get crazy or sexual after getting drunk, you will guard me dutifully. No one is allowed to enter my room, understand? You’re the only one who can see me drunk and you have to keep it an absolute secret.”

A warm feeling filled my heart. Although my sister’s request was unreasonable, the fact that she was only willing to show me her “less-than-perfect” self showed that I had a special place in her heart.

“Also.” Ai Mi continued to say out loud, “No matter what, you have to make sure that the only person I have drunken sex with is you, okay?”

“Pfft.” I was about to spray water that I didn’t even drink out of my mouth. Why did you say it so loudly and so blatantly? What’s inside that corrupted head of yours?

At this time, I saw Peng TouSi walk into the room through the magic glass. He tapped the glass with his thick finger and said in a deep voice:

“Miss, today’s game time has exceeded 40 minutes. According to the agreement between us, it’s time for you to come out.”

“Got it, got it.” Ai Mi answered in annoyance. She got up from her jade scorpion throne and opened the fingerprint-locked sensor door of the throne room from the inside.

Peng TouSi stood outside the door with a grin on his face. He was a head taller than the door frame of the throne room.

“Miss, in another 10 minutes, your mother will be giving you a call to inquire about your work and life, so please make some preparations beforehand…”

“What’s there to prepare for, isn’t it just endless work every day?” Ai Mi had an awkward look.

I thought: Ai Mi’s going to talk to Ai ShuQiao…

Peng TouSi seemed to be worried that I would be overly sensitive and sent glances at me to calm me down.

I spread my hands to express that I had risen to a higher realm of life after experiencing a life and death event. I wasn’t going to burst into a fit of rage because I heard Ai ShuQiao’s name or something related to her anymore.

Ai Mi went back to room 101 to prepare for the call. I saw that it was getting late, so I told Ai Mi that I was leaving, and although she looked quite disappointed, she didn’t urge me to stay right in front of Peng TouSu.

As we walked into the game room, I saw Winnie still studying the game with great interest. I leaned by her ear and told her to never buy Ai Mi alcohol no matter how much she tried to pressure her into doing it.

“It’s a request that affects our friendship, so you have to do it.” I said very seriously to Winnie.

“Don’t worry.” Winnie quickly agreed, “Ai Mi is different from me, she’s allergic to everything. She can’t sunbathe in UV rays and can’t eat almonds… so it’s definitely bad for her if she drinks alcohol. If she wants me to buy her alcohol, it would only happen if I’m drunk hahahaha, and I’ve never gotten drunk before.”

I was able to feel relieved with Winnie’s assurance. Although Winnie had a bad memory, she always kept her word for whatever she could remember.

As I left the VIP building and walked into the night streets of Qing Zi Academy, I only took a few steps before Peng TouSi had caught up with me from behind while holding Obama’s leash in his hand.

“Are you looking for me?” I didn’t slow my pace because Peng TouSi’s stride was larger than mines, and even if I tried to walk my fastest, I wouldn’t have been able to leave him behind.

“Lin.” After arriving beside me in two or three steps, Peng TouSi slowed his pace and lowered his voice to say, “Ren HongDe has made contact with me.”

This news was slightly out of my expectation, but when I thought about it, it was completely logical.

Ren HongDe, the chairman of Qing Zi Education Group and Xiao Qin’s uncle, had once engaged in negotiations with Ai ShuQiao for me and Ai Mi’s freedom, but hadn’t reached a mutually satisfactory agreement.

Although Peng TouSi had been saved by Ai ShuQiao, he was someone who had seen God in a near-death hallucination and had even fallen in love with God. Peng TouSi decided he wasn’t going to be loyal to Ai Shu Qiao’s ambitions, but rather try to save Ai ShuQiao’s soul, so he was on me and Ai Mi’s side.

Both of these people were me and Ai Mi’s allies and were both situated in Qing Zi Academy, so it wasn’t strange for them to get in touch with each other.

“What did Principal Ren… talk to you about.”

When Ren HongDe first negotiated with Ai ShuQiao, he once verbally promised that he would give Ai ShuQiao the position of principal of the Qing Zi Academy in Dong Shan City, but Ai ShuQiao later told me that Ren HongDe had set up quite a number of traps for her in this matter, so she didn’t want to be the principal anymore.

So Ren HongDe’s was able to keep being chairman of the Qing Zi Education Group and also keep being the principal of Qing Zi Acadmey in Dong Shan City for the time being.

“Of course, it’s about the fact that our alliance has expanded again.”

Peng TouSi and I disguised ourselves as dog walkers and purposely headed for a dimly lit area, inadvertently startling a young couple that was hugging behind the bushes.

“Lin, now Madam Ai ShuQiao is going to have to face Principal Ren HongDe, as well as her husband Mr. John, you, me, and Miss Ai Mi…”

Well, leaving Ren HongDe aside, Ai ShuQiao had reached the point where her husband and children wanted to destroy her, however, she seemed to be living a very comfortable life and there was no sign of her imminent downfall.

“By the way, I heard that Principal Ren set a trap for Ai ShuQiao in terms of getting a stake in Qing Zi Group, what kind of trap was it?”

“Principal Ren HongDe asked Madam Ai ShuQiao to provide her company’s recent financial reports for the board of directors to go through. They wanted to find certain clues involving illegal activities, but Madam Ai ShuQiao immediately refused.”

“She didn’t have to refuse? Wasn’t she eager to get her foot in the education industry? Was it that difficult to provide some fake financials to cover her tracks?”

Peng TouSi stopped and stood next to the garden with me. It also conveniently let Obama to chew on the grass beside him.

“Both Principal Ren HongDe and I believe: Madam Ai ShuQiao had a shift of interest. She previously agreed to exchange shares in Qing Zi Academy for you and Ai Mi’s freedom because she was more interested in the shares, which also contained more value in the long run than her son and daughter.”

“But shortly after your first blood sample was sent back to the United States, Madam Ai ShuQiao didn’t really want those shares anymore. I personally believe that your blood sample was the main reason why she refused the deal with Principal Ren HongDe.”

“Could it be that my blood sample is more valuable than Ai Mi’s value in show business.”

Ai ShuQiao did indicate so in the middle of her deal with me, but I still couldn’t believe it.

“It’s a material for high grade painkillers…” Peng TouSi muttered, “Madam Ai ShuQiao had always salivated over the profits of the pharmaceutical industry. She decided that your blood was the golden key to open the treasure trove, so there was no reason to exchange it with Principal Ren HongDe’s shares.”

“Is it really just painkillers?” I was a little perplexed at how easily Ai ShuQiao gambled on me, “If she couldn’t research anything usable from my blood, then wouldn’t she have lost all her money?”

“I don’t know any more than you in this regard.” After Obama urinated against a tree, Peng TouSi and I started walking along the stone path again.

“Lin, it’s good that our alliance has grown, and it’s good that Madam Ai ShuQiao’s attitude towards you has gotten better, but it’s not possible for only good things to happen. There’s a bit of a problem on Mr. John’s side.”

“What problem?”

“You should remember, Mr. John secretly kept the bowl of tomato soup that his father drank before he passed away. Using the latest technological testing methods, they found it contained natural extracts that would trigger a heart attack…”

“I remember. Didn’t he always refuse to take the evidence to court so that his daughter wouldn’t be devastated?”

It wasn’t only because it was her mom who poisoned Ai Mi’s grandfather, but because her mom used Ai Mi to poison her grandfather. Ai Mi, who was only 4 years old at that time, was deceived by Ai ShuQiao. She thought her grandfather refused to take medication, so she took the poisonous pendant given to her by Ai ShuQiao and poisoned her grandfather’s tomato soup.

As soon as I thought of this incident, I swore that I would never forgive Ai ShuQiao, and I would never harbor any delusions about her, there was only war and deals between me and her.

After a moment’s silence, Peng TouSi continued:

“Now, Mr. John’s friends in the police have finally been able to determine the natural extract inside that bowl of tomato soup that triggered the heart attack.”

“The main ingredient comes from the scale powder found on the wings of a subspecies of the blue morpho butterfly…”
