352 5.96 – Alfa playing Beta Wolf – The Sleepless Elite’s Wife

+— Author’s note —-+

Edited by Psycho S.

+—————–+

Bing Shi forced all the three men to bid on her for reasons unknown, but there was this thing one could be sure of and that was: none of them did it because they took interest in her nor because they wanted to obtain her for themselves.

Did Bing Shi plan to bankrupt and weaken Xuan Mu, Mo Luwei, and Quin Yu at the same time? She didn’t say to outbid everyone to win her, but no matter the outcome, he would be the one at the losing end. Stealing all the people’s hearts to secure her elections further had to be only a tip of an iceberg. Lord, save the people of Pujing City if their eyes ever open to what lay beneath their noses...

Xuan Mu held onto her narrow waist, caging her tightly. She was a coincidence. His beautiful coincidence. His wild eyes turned somber, drifting with purpose from her and landing on Quin Yu, fully disregarding Mo Luwei, “Ten million.”

Mo Luwei’s expression darkened when he wasn’t bestowed a single glance as if he was a grain of dust.

Listening to the three men outbidding each other, the emcee regretted not leaving Silika for last. In fact, he was thinking that Aoi Hong would cause a bigger bang considering how she got Quin Yu wrapped around her fingers.

Quin Yu’s ex beamed at Aoi Hong with irritating coyness.

.....

Aoi Hong’s fist clenched at her sides. Despite her calm face, her eyes betrayed her, showing a bit of suspiciousness and confusion.

Li Jie had no idea what was going on, but the guests quickly realized Silika Lin’s husband’s identity, and it would take no time before it spread to the public, together with her entrance into politics. Those who laughed at her husband wanted to cough up blood. So he was not only a genius but also a rich rich genius?! An alpha playing beta wolf?! Why did the couple hide the truth for so long? Silika was a philanthropist while he was an innovator. Their objectives, while both heroic, clashed.

He was a freak who could cross a realm of science fiction, solidified his own monopoly across the whole energy sector, and for whatever reasons, changed his identity however he deemed fit with his dual citizenship.

Financial experts couldn’t exactly guess the value of Binfinity. After all, Binfinity was privately owned, it wasn’t on the charts; one couldn’t trade its stocks or bonds on the public market. But from the massive annual revenue, it seemed nothing could stop it from raising a large amount of capital to fund its own growth.

From an internal source, Binfinity’s huge collection of properties was staggering. Whether they owned a company entirely, possessed majority shares, or even owned minority voting shares, the scope of their reach was enormous for a group that was known less than its subsidiaries. What more, there was an unspoken truth: 77% of the shares were owned by one person.

What made a man like that so irresistible? So tantalizing that experts with the greatest mind would follow him to the depths of hell? Did he entice with money? His wicked reputation? Power? Or was it strictly in the research facility where he enthralled them with his expertise?

What they were sure of was that all the power couples which appeared today were fully overshadowed when these two appeared together with their camouflages off, and their battle armors up. They appeared so calm, so collected, yet intimidating; carrying a dominant force, it occurred as if they were playing around with everyone just for their own amusement.

Silika Lin on her own was a powerful entity, her words carried the weight of gold. If she said something that sounds right, an army of devoted followers would crawl through a thorny path just to reach her right and beyond.

And now, together with this man, they could reach the endless sky and turn a rumor into a legend, just like how she described in her song. It was like a prophecy.

After one and a half years...

Silika Lin became the youngest elected mayor to date with responsibility for setting the budget and strategy over the capital city of Pujing. She became more than just a figurehead role, a ribbon-cutter, or ambassador. Bing Shi was surprised when her job included leading the council and its councilors too.

No matter what the government did for the country, everyone would see it as them trying to steal their tax money. Silika Lin surprisingly knew when to close both of her eyes and pretend to be blind. Having her in their team would shine some good light on them.

Even though Bing Shi had lots of experience in large-scale management, everything had to be publicly disclosable. She had to operate at a level of transparency and scrutiny that corporate CEOs rarely endured.

On inauguration day, she was already behind. Her job wouldn’t wait for her to adapt. It had to be finished. And because everyone took her for a genius, nobody went out of their way to explain things to her twice, even if she asked. She noticed that there were some rival egos she had to sort through during the biweekly cabinet meetings. It was nothing she couldn’t deal with though. Everyone was very nice to her.

The mayor’s job was a multitasking chore. She was swamped by thousands of things from all sides. Most tasks she had to do were rubbish, but there was also some important stuff that kept her awake for many nights, regardless. Two-word example: police department.

There were some good parts too.

[[World mission success: Learn how to control your presence. Fulfill Silika’s dying wish. Become a world-famous actress so she could afford a good life for her father. Perform at least in three different roles: the main antagonist, the side character, and the main protagonist. Stage at four different settings: romance, drama, action, and reality show. Host can leave the world.]]

Putting all the power aside. This. She fully became a native of this world. Unlike a lead, a reincarnator, or a transmigrator, she was not viewed as an abnormality anymore, even though her words alone could cause a person’s fame to shoot through the roof or plummet through the ground.

No matter how ‘different’, amazingly boring, or eye-catching she became, the leads wouldn’t suddenly fall in love with her, and villains wouldn’t see her as an eye-sore without a reason. So rather than calling it presence control, it was more about coexisting with everyone and everything while jumping up the ranks, from the lowest to highest.

A few months later...

Behind the safety fences... There, on a mattress placed on the floor, under a soft furry blanket, a tiny creature woke up from a deep slumber, “Daddy.”

Since when could a little puppy talk?

“Daddy.” Ying Xiong crawled from under the blanket. The hoodie with puppy ears slid back, showing his spiky, black hair that was so messy, it looked as if he were electrocuted. The mirror which was safely anchored to the floor and the milk bottle next to it stopped his next call out for attention. Picking up the milk bottle, he touched the baby with a perfectly drawn moustache in the mirror. He seemed to really like his reflection.

No, he was not a tiny egomaniac. He made adorable faces that were almost squee-worthy. Cute enough to convert anyone into a morning person. He was not worried about how his hair looked nor did he check if there was any food in between the few, front teeth that he had.

“Daddy!” he pointed at his nose in the mirror while sucking on the warm milk, “Daddy!” he pointed at his eyes, “Daddy!” And ears... Like this, he named all his body parts that his parents tried to teach him, unconsciously exchanging all the correct terms with a wrong ones...

A consistent daily schedule and step-by-step routines helped him to feel safe and comfortable around his environment. Without him knowing, someone was developing his cognitive and physical skills and also self-awareness through mirror plays. Sadly all the new words that he learned would always be forgotten.
