Miss Beautiful C.E.O and her system

Chapter 476 Elena seeking troubles again

"Besides," The woman continued. "I agree with the idea of not drawing her into our situation. No matter how wealthy she is, she can only support a prefect at most. For the entire Province N, she would never help even if she's very close to Yang Qingyue."

"Alright, I agree then. We won't involve her." The second mumbled with dissatisfaction. "But it's annoying to watch her support Yang Qingyue freely. How about we use our business to deal with her business."

The first snorted. "Pray that you survive on the battlefield. Why do you think I'm so keen on supporting her rather than suppressing her?"

"Isn't it because you want your grandson to marry her?" The woman asked.

"It was before; now my grandson isn't worth a dime in front of her." The first blushed and said. "Fortunately, I waited and didn't embarrass myself. Don't you understand how much she spent in our auction?"

By now the identity of the first man who was speaking became clear. The old man from Shen family, also had connections with Province N's military brigades. The strongest family strength wasn't for nothing.

Everyone nodded at the old man's complaint. They were scared too, estimating Ling Qingyu's true wealth from the free cash.

"Okay, we know her wealth and you still state that she won't support the Province?" The second pointed his doubt. "Why in the world can you guarantee that she is ruthless and only looks at interest from people, just because of rumors? Who dare say for sure!"

The room turned quiet again. Ling Qingyu and Yang Qingyue seemed so closer, closer than friends. Their conjectures of Ling Qingyu putting interest in front of friendship couldn't be proven.

Everyone finally stopped discussing about Ling Qingyu and decided to put her on a watchlist. Based on her moves, they would react.

In the end, the meeting came to a conclusion to protect the senator as much as possible, minimize the impact, and lessen the prison period with luxurious treatment while attacking Yang Qingyue's privatization so that they could put their people into Spirit Fox.

For the people in power, these difficult realities were easy to create. The only difficulty was fighting Yang Qingyue in the judicial process. With so much evidence and malicious rhythm in the public opinion, they didn't want to anger the crowd of ordinary people and attracted unwarranted attention until the heat dissipated.

Of course, although the main theme was finished, nobody left as they continued the conversations. Collaboration between several parties was so strong, that their topics never ended.

Ling Qingyu's residence.

Inside the bathtub, Ling Qingyu lazily parted her lips as she immersed herself in the water. The feeling of some part of her body floating helped her relieve stress.

Today's exercise utilized too much of her muscles and she needed a leisurely relaxation. She truly wasn't being lazy. She had kicked doors and furniture and drove a heavy motorbike with precision.

The entire day, she was outside. She must have some enjoyment, right? Athena played music nearby and she danced on the water.

Such a large bathtub, if she didn't move, she would be wasting the designer's thoughtfulness.

Designer: But I have never calculated if a load can bear extreme exercises.

Immersed in the music and dance, Ling Qingyu also listened to Athena's report on the events happening on social media. Suddenly, she projected a screen for her mother to see.

Ling Qingyu asked, discovering the list of names, of which the surnames were too familiar for her. "What's the matter, Athena?"

"Mom, here is a list of people who had meetings tonight, right after the senator's downfall. They put away any electronic devices so I can hear their discussion. But I think Mom needs to pay attention to these people."

"Oh, some people can't sit still," Ling Qingyu sneered as her eyes hovered over eight names.

Some, she had some business dealings; a few, she knew them from the circle. Outrageously, they were the most powerful and influential in Province N. Before, she might even have to bow her head and cater a little favor against her will. Now, she no longer cared too much.

Ling Qingyu paused at the two names—Shen and Xia. She had good deals with Shen family and had positive views but that didn't prompt her to show mercy if time came to pick a side. These were the people going against her Yang Qingyue. A lover versus a stranger.

Yang Qingyue: Wait a minute, when did I become yours? You should be mine!

At least, tonight was fruitful since she also knew exactly who was targeting Yang Qingyue. Of course, these were mere top layers. There were groups cooperating below for their interest.

Although she considered wiping them all out, she reckoned she should just cooperate with Yang Qingyue and inform her of the opponents' identities. Otherwise, another dramatic Province N would attract the central government's eyes and she would lose what she would gain naturally.

She better controlled the rhythm and ensured Yang Qingyue's power grew peacefully during this transition stage. "Athena, where's Elena currently?"

Talking with Athena, she remembered another cheap daughter sailing in the oceans. She hadn't communicated with the new one since the day she met. She must build up a relationship to show that both were equal.

Perhaps, who knew Athena might be showing off to Elena behind her back? These two were like cats fighting for favors.

"Mom, she's sailing near the Country A's border."

Ling Qingyu almost jumped out of her bathtub at the shocking information. What was her maniac Shipgirl up to? This girl had once said to her to blow up the capital of Country A, she shouldn't be considering the option right?

Ling Qingyu asked Athena to show Elena's position. Looking at the red dot in the sea near Country A's capital on the hologram map, Ling Qingyu's eyelids twitched.

Why was her damn daughter so obsessed with blowing up Country A's capital? Was she a pro-firearm in her previous life? To ensure gun control went out of the options once and for all, was it? Not sure if Elena had a history like Athena, despite erasure from System. Ling Qingyu maliciously speculated.

With headaches, Ling Qingyu hurriedly called the naughty girl. As soon as the channel was connected, Ling Qingyu asked. "Elena, why are you sailing near Country A?"

"Hello, Mom. I'm testing the water and depth of Country A's defense. So far, no one has detected my presence." Elena replied in a chic tone. "I also want to verify satellites' imaging capability to see if it matches realities and how it differs from the instruments inside our submarine."

Ling Qingyu sighed in relief. She wasn't planning anything big. Wait a minute, did she just say to test Country A. How?

"Elena, come back quick. I've prepared so many sisters to accompany you. You won't be lonely anymore." Ling Qingyu gave a sound reason to raise Elena's interest.

Sure enough, she received Elena's joyful reply. Watching the red dot, Ling Qingyu had headaches. She had no idea how Elena navigated under the ocean so far away within a day. Her submarine shouldn't have outrageous speed, right?

Ling Qingyu, a naval noob, didn't understand the previous submarine's data regarding knots. It wasn't outrageous, it was too mythical.

Frankly, everybody would have the same doubts. How could Elena travel so quickly from the other side of the world to another? She couldn't use those canals to pass through if her journey was meant to be inconspicuous, which meant the ship trails would be way around rather than straight lines without shortcuts.

Even so, Elena managed to get near Country A tonight and it didn't seem like she arrived recently. She sweated for the President there. One wrong word from Ling Qingyu could obliterate the country's top echelon and throw the nation into chaos.

Based on the current back-and-forth disagreements and disunity, and so many factions created, Country A's unity seemed questionable. Though under bloody crisis, they exported unified strength and deterred the world.

Once was the comeback during the Second World War. The second was the modern counter-terror after a terror attack on the twin tower, rolling the entire nation to boil with the motto-with us or against us, ensuring the Country's supremacy remained strong and unchallenged. Now the time had passed for so long that a few nations were keeping up and had thoughts of overtaking.

Country C, Ling Qingyu was in, was one of them. Of course, the two nations also united against the emerging threat, the World Government. Your next read awaits at My Virtual Library Empire
