Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Selling Out Miss Qin for a Book?

As soon as Lu Yi heard the name Xinghe, his expression changed immediately.

Holy shit.

I want it, I must have it.

”Miss Qin, please wait for a few seconds!” Lu Yi quickly apologized to Qin Xin, ”I’ll have a word with Miss Jun and be right back.”

His eyes lit up, he was almost willing to hand over his salary card to Jun Ruyi: ”Miss Jun, how much, how much would you be willing to help me get a signed copy?”

Jun Ruyi smiled confidently.

Haha, foolish male creature, as long as you grasp their greedy side, nothing is impossible.

Jun Ruyi deliberately feigned modesty: ”Well, you know Xinghe is very low-key, and the whole world is competing for 10 signed books. Do you think money can solve that?”

Lu Yi’s face turned gray, having to admit: ”Indeed. I heard that one year, a tycoon spent millions on his signed book... and still didn’t get it.”

”And another year, a queen from some royal family in Europe wanted to give her granddaughter a signed book as a birthday gift, and just so another country’s prince was using it as an engagement gift for his fiancée. Both fought over the last signed book on the market, causing diplomatic ties to break and becoming enemies.”

”And also...”

No need to list more examples.

These two are enough to leave those present completely stunned.

The engineers sighed: ”We ordinary people don’t even dare to dream about getting a signed copy; just buying a physical book makes us happy. Secretary Lu, if you can get one, signed or not, let us take a look at it.”

After all, as engineers in the field of artificial intelligence, everyone admires Xinghe’s sci-fi works.

Many engineers even subconsciously incorporate the principles from Xinghe’s writings into their own robot designs.

Lu Yi reluctantly asked Jun Ruyi: ”Miss Jun, do you happen to have a way?”

Jun Ruyi smiled mysteriously: ”Do you think people from the President Mansion can’t get a signed book?”

Everyone suddenly realized.

That’s right.

They almost forgot Miss Jun’s identity.

Who is Miss Jun? The eldest daughter of the current president, Mr. Jun. She’s the princess of the President Mansion.

With the power of the President Mansion, they should still be able to get one, right?

Lu Yi’s eyes brightened, rubbing his hands: ”Miss Jun, um, um...”

Oh dear, he couldn’t bring himself to ask for the book, but he really wanted it.

Jun Ruyi kept them in suspense, then finally graciously offered: ”Since Secretary Lu likes it so much, I’ll reluctantly ask my father to get one for you.”

Lu Yi expressed his gratitude: ”Thank you so much, Miss Jun. This favor, I will remember...”

Jun Ruyi interrupted him: ”No need to remember it. Why don’t you tell me now...”

She lowered her voice to a whisper that only Lu Yi and she could hear: ”What’s the relationship between that Qin and Young Master? How did she manage to cozy up to Young Master?”

Lu Yi’s expression changed.

The matter between Young Master and Miss Qin, of course, couldn’t be casually told to outsiders.

Even if Miss Jun got him a signed book, he couldn’t say.

That’s a matter of principle.

Lu Yi refused: ”Sorry, I don’t know anything about Young Master’s affairs.”

Jun Ruyi smiled, looking confident: ”No rush, Secretary Lu, I understand if you can’t think of it now. Once I help you get the signed book, you can tell me then; I hope you’ll remember by then.”

Lu Yi looked at Jun Ruyi as if she were a devil: ”Nothing more to say, Miss Jun, I must go now.”

Goodness, she actually proposed such a devilish condition, trying to seduce him to betray Young Master and Miss Qin. Does she really think Lu Yi is such a man with no integrity?

Would he sell out Young Master and Miss Qin for a book?!

Bah!
