Jiang Si, suspended in mid-air, instinctively reached out and wrapped her arms around Agares's neck, blurting out, "Why hijack a spaceship for 20 billion?"
Agares stiffened, lifted Jiang Si from her seat, and released her. A blush crept up her ears, and she breathed slightly heavily: "That's the question you should be asking. Why did he escape from your hands?"
Without Agares's arm strength to support his waist.
Jiang Si couldn't wrap her arms around his neck, so she let go, her feet touched the ground, and she took a step back. Feeling guilty after being questioned by her cheap husband, she stammered, "Um... um, you might not believe it, but it was Red Eyebrows... Red Eyebrows led a lot of people, carrying a lot of rocket launchers, and robbed 20 billion from me and Daddy."
Agares moved the hand that was around Jiang Si's waist behind her back, his dark eyes darkening.
Jiang Si's heart tightened, thinking that her cheap husband had seen through her clumsy lie. Just as she was about to explain again, Agares didn't ask anything, but simply said, "Come with me."
"Wait a minute, I still have a box in my seat." Jiang Si quickly stopped them, not forgetting the cherry tomatoes she had packed in the box.
Agares paused, his gaze sweeping across the room. He noticed a cooler on her seat, reached out and scooped it up. The cooler was quite heavy. He handed it to Jiang Si: "What's this?"
Jiang Si smiled and pushed the cherry tomato away, saying, "This is for you."
Agares stared at the cooler box she had pushed back, and hesitated, "A gift for me, tomatoes?"
Jiang Si nodded and corrected him: "They are cherry tomatoes, not mutated ones, and they have spiritual power. You can treat them as fruit or use them in cooking."
Agares tightened his grip on the cooler: "Didn't you say you were going to give all the fruit to the little panda?"
Of course, Jiang Si couldn't tell her cheap husband that she had specially nurtured it for him with her mental power before going to sleep. She just chuckled and said, "I'm a seventh-level plant healer, how could I give away everything? This is especially for you, Your Highness!"
Agares looked at her, his eyes crinkling with laughter. His ears, which had initially only turned red at the tips, now seemed to be burning. His face was expressionless as he said in a cold, hoarse voice, "Thank you!"
"No need to be polite..."
Before Jiang Si could finish speaking, the spaceship shook.
"Blue Beard is attacking the spaceship, let's go!" Agares put the cooler into the space button, grabbed Jiang Si's wrist, and left.
Jiang Si hurriedly said, "I haven't put on my shoes yet!"
As soon as the two men stepped out of their cabin, a loud bang was heard, and a hole was blasted through the cabin wall from the outside, letting in a chilling draft.
Jiang Si's long hair flew in the wind as she looked back at the hole blasted out by the cannon.
I couldn't help but think that 20 billion was ruthless. This wasn't just hijacking a spaceship; it was clearly a death sentence!
"Daughter, why are you sleeping so soundly? I called you but you didn't answer." As soon as Bo Jichen saw the two of them come out, he immediately asked Jiang Si.
Before Jiang Si could answer, Agares, who was holding her wrist, pulled her slightly to Bo Jichen's side, released her hand, and went straight to the cabin door, opening it: "Chu Xi, come with me."
Chu Xi, who had been holding a gun while standing in front of the hatch, said, "Yes!" and followed Agares out of the VIP cabin, making sure to close the entire hatch behind her.
Jiang Si pointed to the closed hatch: "Dad, they're going to fight, aren't we going?"
Bo Jichen clicked his tongue, sat down in the seat next to him, crossed his legs, and said on tiptoe, "It's just a 20 billion one. A 20 billion spaceship can only carry a maximum of 100 people. The most advanced short weapon is probably the MK heavy rocket launcher!"
"As for mecha, no one can compare to your husband's mecha. Your husband's mecha was reassembled from parts that the Empire bought from the Fourth Civilization at great expense."
"If he can't get a mere 20 billion plus 100 of his men, he might as well go back to school and start over. Besides, if you hadn't been so quick to wake him up, he probably would have the 20 billion by now."
Is it true or false?
My cheap husband is so incredibly cool?
A walking, humanoid weapon?
Jiang Si sat down opposite Bo Jichen, then realized something was amiss: "Dad, shouldn't we go and secure the 20 billion first? What if my husband manages to get it and then turns around and tries to take advantage of us? Won't he find out something?"
Bo Jichen's expression changed: "What you said makes sense..."
Before Bo Jichen could finish speaking, the voice of the man with the big blue beard interrupted him through the loudspeaker, "Dear passengers, I am the man with the big blue beard. Congratulations on having me to protect you."
"I am a very gentle and kind person. I have always been focused on making money. I never kill people or make enemies easily. I will only kill people when I am very angry."
"So you have to find Red Eyebrow on your ship before I get angry and hand him over to me. Then you'll be able to safely reach wherever you want to go. Otherwise, I'll blow up this ship and make you pay with your lives for Red Eyebrow."
"Red Eyebrows is on this spaceship too?" The others in the VIP cabin exclaimed in surprise. "He's the number one wanted bandit. I heard he's ruthless and takes pleasure in killing. He not only toyed with women, but also with little boys!"
"The methods of manipulation are extremely cruel. They either cripple people or render them infertile. What's most despicable is that they specifically target delicate, young boys who haven't fully developed."
"Cough cough!" Bo Jichen coughed suddenly, asking incredulously, "Who told you that he was playing with little boys?"
The speaker said, "Do I even need to hear about it? It's all over the internet. Don't you use a VPN to access the internet?"
Bo Jichen gave a curt "Oh," and said, "Sorry, I'm from a garbage planet. We just got internet access there, so we can't access the internet outside the Great Firewall. We can only access the Empire's star network."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si narrowed her eyes, grinned mischievously, and drawled out, "Daddy..."
Bo Jichen opened his mouth, his voice turning cold as he stopped her: "Shut your mouth. I don't know anything. Don't ask me. We don't have internet at home."
"A lame excuse that even a ghost wouldn't believe, isn't Daddy ashamed?" Jiang Si pointed at him, looking at Bo Jichen with a knowing expression: "I know your family doesn't have internet, but, in order to avoid selling us both later for this 20 billion, could you please take me to earn another 30 billion?"
Bo Jichen stood up, exuding arrogance and aloofness while simultaneously displaying disdain and contempt: "If you want to fight, just say so. Daddy is so understanding, he would never refuse to take you. Let's go, Daddy will take you to dominate the battlefield."
