Chapter 1419: Not Bribery
"Senior, how can you question my character like this?" Upon hearing this, Steve quickly straightened his back, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and assured her seriously.
"I told him that I was only concerned about my senior. I won't be bribed by anyone, including Mr. Li!"
"Do you swear?" Nie Yao asked with raised eyebrows.
"I swear!" Steve nodded quickly and raised his hand to swear seriously.
"Okay, then swear on your future girlfriend... If you lie, you won't be able to find a girlfriend for five years!"
After Nie Yao finished speaking, Steve quickly put down his hand and begged for mercy with a wry smile: "Senior sister, please don't be like this. I haven't been able to find a girlfriend for a long time. If I remain single for another five years, I will go crazy..."
Seeing Nie Yao looking at him with a half-smile, Steve sighed and said helplessly: "Okay, senior sister, I'll be honest. Please don't make me swear such a vicious oath. I can't afford to be single..."
"Go ahead!" Nie Yao folded her arms, raised her chin slightly, and waited for his answer.
"Actually, it wasn't bribery. Mr. Li was worried that I might get into danger while doing archaeological work here, or be targeted by people with bad intentions. So he told me to report anything suspicious to him..."
Steve said this and glanced at Nie Yao cautiously. Seeing that she was not angry, he continued, "Then, he allowed me to go to the newly developed Pentium Battlefield Game Park without restrictions..."
"Benteng battlefield? What is that?" Nie Yao frowned and asked in confusion.
"Hey, Senior, since you don't play games, you might not know this, but that's the latest popular VR immersive online game. The equipment cabin isn't sold to the public yet, so they built an amusement park where you can go in and play!"
Steve mentioned his hobby and excitedly gestured to Nie Yao. "That game is amazing! Even though it's just VR, the various weapons and shooting in it feel like the real thing. Plus, the developers are all from Fengshi, a real military-industrial technology company. The game became a global hit upon its release, and I heard that Mr. Li also invested in it, so he helped me get a spot as an unlimited trial user!"
Nie Yao finally understood and shook her head. With a straight face, she pretended to be angry and said, "So you sold out your senior sister just for this game!"
"Senior, how can this be considered betrayal? Mr. Li is worried about you because you're out doing archaeological research!"
Steve quickly waved his hands and explained seriously, "This can only be considered as Mr. Li and I helping each other. I help him take good care of the senior sister, and he helps me get a spot for the game experience..."
He paused, then added with a smile, "And I've also promised Mr. Li that I'll report any experiences I have to give you truthfully. This can be considered an internal review for their collaborative game project!"
Nie Yao wasn't actually angry. Seeing him explaining so nervously, she couldn't help but find it amusing. She sighed softly, took a sip of the soy milk, and said, "Forget it, I'll let you go this time! But from now on, you and him are not allowed to make any deals behind my back!"
"Yes, senior sister, I promise!" Steve breathed a sigh of relief and nodded without hesitation.
“Eat quickly…”
Nie Yao urged with a smile, but when she thought about Steve's explanation just now, she was not surprised!
This is not the first time that Li Jinxing and Feng Xun have collaborated. This time, they are working on such a cooperative project. I’m afraid that Xia Chuqi is one of the core members!
