My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband

Chapter 889: Dancing with Wolves 2

Si Mingjing was tired and didn’t want to guess. She closed her eyes and said, "Say it if you want, I’m tired, carry me to bed."

She ordered him around, Mo Yinhe raised his eyebrows, not angry but rather enjoying it.

Mo Yinhe picked her up in his arms and walked towards the bedroom. Smelling the faint scent of alcohol on her, he directly carried her into the bathroom after entering the bedroom, drawing a hot bath to join her.

As the hot water enveloped her, every cell of Si Mingjing’s body was tenderly embraced, her whole being more relaxed as she lay in the bathtub, asking the man beside her, "Are you really not going to say?"

The double massage bathtub was large, enough for two people to lie down. Mo Yinhe also relaxed his body and mind, enjoying the massage.

He said, "We just signed a contract with Lu Zhanyuan, and Qu Liushang immediately got the news, called your brother, and said he was willing to sign a third-party market cooperation as long as he could get a share in national childcare technology. He wasn’t genuinely interested in national childcare technology; he was interested in third-party market cooperation. He was just using this as an excuse to bring the cooperation his father didn’t want to agree to back to the table."

Si Mingjing listened patiently.

The Undersea World didn’t have a problem with an aging population, so national childcare technology wasn’t a necessity.

For politicians, it was a technology that was dispensable.

In the eyes of Mo Yinhe, Si Lisao, and even Qu Liushang, it wasn’t a necessity, so they didn’t care for it.

Only female leaders like Si Mingjing would firmly want to acquire this technology, to benefit women and empathetically solve the issues women yearned to address.

Thinking about it, Si Mingjing asked, "Why is Qu Liushang so eager for the third-party market cooperation that his father doesn’t agree with? I don’t know much about the situation in Gendaya Country."

Her focus was on medicine, with little attention to other matters.

Mo Yinhe said, "Qu Liushang’s father is relatively conservative, preferring to sacrifice economic development rather than be exploited by foreign capital. Qu Liushang is different; he is young and radical, filled with ambition, wanting to achieve something. He is willing to be exploited by foreign capital in order to vigorously develop the economy, even if it means providing only cheap labor."

Si Mingjing thought for a moment: "Hmm. So what pit are you planning to dig for him?"

Mo Yinhe laughed and said, "Mingjing, you still don’t quite understand economics; otherwise, you wouldn’t need to ask me. Introducing foreign capital can indeed vigorously develop the economy, but you probably don’t understand how terrifying foreign monopoly can be. Strong foreign capital can monopolize the economic lifeline of Gendaya. If a country wants to rely on foreign technology to develop its economy, it will surely be choked by foreign control. For long-term development, the most pragmatic approach is independent innovation. Otherwise, in aspects such as high-end equipment, core raw materials, core technology, and core equipment of production lines, they will all be controlled by foreign companies. This is dancing with wolves; it will lead to big problems in the future."

Si Mingjing indeed did not understand economics, but when Mo Yinhe mentioned dancing with wolves, she understood.

Mu Continent and Atlantis were wolves, economically crushing Gendaya. Qu Liushang wanted to introduce foreign capital, which was inviting wolves in, potentially letting Mo Yinhe and Si Lisao seize important economic lifelines while developing the economy.

Modern national disputes try not to resort to force; if one can grasp the opponent’s economic lifeline economically...

With this in mind, Si Mingjing said, "Qu Liushang is not a fool either."

"He naturally can foresee that such a day might come, so this is a game of dancing with wolves. I had separate meetings with domestic economists to analyze this, and both sets of economists came to similar conclusions. Our economists said it would take only five years to seize Gendaya’s economic lifeline; your brother’s economists concluded it would take six years. Qu Liushang surely calculated and thought the deal was still worth doing. It’s not that I dug a pit for him, but Qu Liushang knowing there’s a pit ahead and being willing to jump for economic development, understand?"

Si Mingjing narrowed her phoenix eyes, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Maybe he fancies himself as a fox, not believing that the game of dancing with wolves would result in loss. I’m leaving this matter alone; there are professional areas of expertise. I should focus on my medical research. But I posted something on social media today, and this deal might not go through. Do you blame me?"

"What kind of silly talk is that?" Mo Yinhe pinched her cheeks, the steam making her face blush white to red.

Feeling warm inside, Mo Yinhe said, "Mingjing, you defending me makes me very happy today."

Si Mingjing said: "Just good intentions gone wrong, nothing much."

"No harm done, Qu Liushang’s mouth is cheap, he deserves some lesson." After the bath, he carried her out of the tub, dried off, and back to the bedroom, holding her in his arms, said: "He’s been too much in front of me lately, I’m annoyed with him."

"But with benefits laid out before you, you would still cooperate with him without hesitation? They say between countries, there are no permanent allies, nor permanent enemies. I’ve never been involved in politics, so I can’t think from a political perspective, but I’m quite irritated by him and don’t want to cooperate, even if there’s benefit. In this regard, neither you nor my brother match up to Jingzhe."

Mo Yinhe was taken aback: "What about Jingzhe?"

Si Mingjing’s voice carried a hint of pride: "Jingzhe promised me today that as long as I don’t like it, even if benefits are at stake, he won’t do it. Neither husband nor brother match up to my son."

Mo Yinhe only felt a pang of internal injury: "..."

Si Mingjing saw Mo Yinhe’s deflated expression, at first wanting to keep a straight face, but she couldn’t hold back her laughter.

When she laughed, Mo Yinhe knew she wasn’t really angry.

Mo Yinhe wanted to kiss her, but Si Mingjing pushed him away, then suddenly hugged his neck and kissed him on the cheek.

Mo Yinhe was both crying and laughing: "Are you teasing me?"

Si Mingjing honestly nodded, frustrated: "Forget it, I won’t participate in or care about your games, just don’t let Qu Liushang show off in front of me. If I think about it, I’d probably agree if I were in your place. In essence, we’re the same kind of person, with profit to gain, not gaining is foolish."

She yawned, closed her eyes with growing drowsiness, and said: "Sleep."

Mo Yinhe hugged her and turned off the lights.

In the dark, he said, "Baby, once I get the technology for the teleportation gate, we’ll move back to Yecheng to live."

Si Mingjing raised her heavy eyelids and asked, "You plan to steal it from Qu Liushang?"

Mo Yinhe’s tone was arrogant and wild: "I have a team, not necessarily unable to develop it."

Recently, he not only absorbed Mrs. Liang’s grandson in A Country but also gathered all the talents worldwide they could employ, forming a team specifically researching teleportation gate technology, possibly succeeding in developing it.
