After Defeat, the Empress’s Negotiating Chip Turns Out to Be Me

Chapter 271

271~ The Gradually Collapsing World~

"Miss Mo, is there anything you'd like to say?"

"No, let's just leave it at this."

She only wanted to give her past life self a dignified burial, nothing more than that.

"Alright, then please have the host deliver the eulogy."

......

After going through the entire process, quite a bit of time had passed. Right at this moment, a light rain began to fall, as if catering to the sorrowful atmosphere.

"The deceased cannot return. Please accept our condolences, Miss Mo."

"Yes, thank you for your concern."

Maid Xiao Xi held a gray double umbrella, standing behind the Little Princess. Master and servant silently mourned before the tombstone.

The Empress stood a bit further back, alone under a black umbrella.

Offerings were placed in front of the tombstone, with an umbrella positioned to prevent them from getting wet from the rain.

After the others attended and paid their respects, they left one after another. In the end, only three people remained at the cemetery.

But before long, someone hurried over, already out of breath by the time they reached the grave.

"What are you following us here for again?"

Maid Xiao Xi said with a displeased expression.

She was truly annoyed by this sticky gum that clung to her Princess. Was this someone who just wouldn't listen no matter what was said?

Don't push her until she really couldn't stand it anymore and had to resort to violent measures before being willing to settle down.

"I came to attend my son's funeral. Is there a problem with that?"

"Of course there's no problem. It's just uncertain whether Miss Song sincerely intends to attend the funeral."

"Of course I do. What, am I going to cause a scene at my own son's funeral?"

This kind of inauspicious place might attract some unclean things, who knows.

"Xiao Xi, Fei, let's go."

Just as she was about to leave, pulling the two of them by their hands, she noticed Song Siya had also followed along.

Just what was it that made this woman so obsessed with getting money from her? Did she really think that by unreasonably pestering like this, she could get it?

And pestering a truly powerful and influential person like this so unreasonably, wasn't she afraid she'd directly bring down Xu Songwang's company?

The company Xu Songwang operated was just a small company. Its performance wasn't particularly good to begin with. Basically, as long as she took action against it, it would collapse at any time. Was this woman really not afraid?

"Miss Song, I'm warning you one more time. You and I are not familiar. I only knew Xu Hanhai. As for your family's eldest son Xu Songwang, I have zero interest in him. Could you please stop wasting my time? Or do you think I could try initiating a major market reshuffle, leaving you people with no foothold at all?"

Hearing this, Song Siya followed even more closely.

"Miss Mo, I think we could have a collaboration..."

"No, I never discuss any collaboration with people like you. If you want collaboration, go find people who share your aspirations. Coming to me is useless."

After this refusal, Song Siya didn't continue following, only watching them leave from behind.

According to her estimation, by this time, Xu Songwang's company should have already been mismanaged by that guy to the point where the capital chain had issues.

If she were to step on it now, the company would truly collapse.

Her persistent pestering was also because she wanted to save Xu Songwang's company... or rather, the company Xu Songwang had conned away from her in her past life.

If only Xu Songwang knew how to manage a company, it wouldn't have reached the point where she had to beg outsiders.

She estimated it must have been consecutive major losses over several months to collapse that capital chain.

If she remembered correctly, the company's funds at that time amounted to over five hundred thousand, which was already quite a substantial sum for such a micro-enterprise.

If the capital chain truly completely collapsed, leading to the company's direct bankruptcy, she could only curse, "Good riddance."

"Princess, what are you thinking about? You're so happy?"

Could it be that the Princess just attended her own funeral and her brain short-circuited?

"Nothing, I just thought of something funny."

If someone could truly manage to collapse a company in just four months, she'd really laugh her teeth off.

The company conned away from her hands, then after managing it himself, he lacked the ability and it collapsed, so he came looking for outside help? What utter trash?

Very quickly, the Little Princess leaned against Maid Xiao Xi and fell into a baby-like sleep.

Seeing this, the Empress was somewhat displeased.

Why wasn't she sleeping against her? They had already shared a bed, even engaged in deep exchanges. Why couldn't she sleep leaning against her?

Maid Xiao Xi felt a chill down her back. A trace of confusion surfaced in her eyes. After making eye contact with the Empress, her pupils refocused, then she pushed the Little Princess over to the Empress's side, letting her Princess sleep leaning against the Empress.

"Very good..."

However, her dream journey should be coming to an end soon, right?

Mo's original world was indeed an absolute technological crushing of otherworldly civilization, with all kinds of...

......

......

"Recently, an unidentified creature appeared in the island nation, transforming all nuclear wastewater into non-radioactive wastewater overnight, and wiping out the island nation's naval fleet along the way..."

Then came the live footage captured at the scene. The dark shadow in the footage couldn't be seen clearly, releasing endless energy in an extremely exaggerated manner, successively destroying several fleets.

Moreover, somehow summoning a massive iceberg, it directly separated the entire nuclear power plant from the city, not giving ground forces the opportunity to advance and harass.

"Central reporters continue to bring you coverage."

……

"Holy shit! What the hell is this? Is this really just one creature? Are you sure this isn't a deity manifesting to punish this little island nation?"

"If there really is this kind of creature that can casually destroy an entire fleet and create an iceberg hundreds of meters tall out of thin air, then what's the point of humanity even fighting?"

If such a creature existed, humanity wouldn't even need to exist on the Blue Planet anymore!

But this was Central News, the country's most authoritative news source. It couldn't possibly lie and deceive the masses, right?

For a time, the storm of public opinion online escalated to a white-hot stage. Some even talked about apocalypse theories, while others used VPNs to get onto Twitter to find footage of the island nation's fleet battling this mysterious creature at the time...

Almost all hot weapons were unleashed, whether missiles or various bullets. Even the Beautiful Country forces stationed in the island nation requested to launch intercontinental ballistic missiles for bombardment, but they still couldn't harm this mysterious creature in the slightest...

This was an almost invincible existence! It was as if there was some kind of barrier around it, intercepting all attacks.

If the residents of this island nation hadn't been evacuated yet, the Beautiful Country forces might have already applied for a nuclear strike to bomb the entire area.

"Are you sure this isn't some deity manifesting? Or maybe some Tribulation Transcendence stage expert who crossed over?"

"You've read too many novels!"

Online public opinion in various countries had gone completely crazy, with even faint signs of fragmentation appearing. Especially netizens led by the Beautiful Country had already written their wills early on, and the wealthy had also begun constructing doomsday shelters.

The world had gradually begun to collapse...
