Chapter 1598 Just Good-Looking
She was not an innocent little girl who would be deceived by Lilia's words.
"Of course not." Lilia did not hide anything, "I want to save people to save Anderson's reputation. If there is really no problem with this technology and it can pass the review, we will naturally invest a lot of money to study it. This is the best opportunity to strengthen national defense. Whether it is me, the Anderson family, or our political opponents, they all want chips."
Sure enough!
Xiao Qiao's heart was beating fast. This was a cruel fact that was hard to believe, but there was no way to say anything. From Lilia's point of view, she did nothing wrong.
In order to save Anderson's reputation, she did nothing out of line.
"I know."
Lilia had other things to do, and she didn't stay with them for a long time. After lunch, she left first.
From the beginning to the end, Major Wesley served as a background wall. Apart from saying that the chip was in Xiao Qiao's hand, he simply greeted her and didn't say anything. After Lilia left, Xiao Qiao looked at him, "Why did you lie?"
"What lie did I tell?"
"The chip is not with me." Xiao Qiao said in a deep voice, "You asked me to give the chip, where can I find the chip for Lilia?"
The magnificent revolving restaurant can see the beautiful scenery of New York. Major Wesley looked out the window with a heavy look. There are some principled things that he will eventually violate.
"I will give it to you." Major Wesley said softly, and Xiao Qiao was shocked.
She knew the importance of the chip to each other, so she asked several times, even using the honey trap, but Wesley just refused to give her the chip and refused it firmly.
Xiao Qiao knew that this was a matter of principle for Wesley.
When she left, she went to Wesley's room to look for the chip, but she didn't find it.
Why did he suddenly change his mind?
Xiao Qiao smiled suddenly, and her fingertips brushed across Wesley's face, "Beauty, do you love me so much that you want whatever you want?"
Her teasing was a bit smug and proud, but also a bit deep. Those gem-like eyes sparkled with joy and inquiry. Wesley took out the half of the chip and put it in his palm, "You have to promise me one thing."
"I can promise you anything except getting married and living together for a lifetime!" Xiao Qiao was particularly straightforward.
Wesley suddenly closed his hand and took the chip in his palm. Xiao Qiao's shining eyes could not hide the disappointment. You said you would give me the chip, why didn't you give it to me, liar! Xiao Qiao was angry, "What do you mean?"
"I suddenly don't want to give it to you!" And he wanted to slap her.
Xiao Qiao pursed her lips and acted cute, "Major, I was wrong."
The major didn't buy it at all. This girl really made him want to beat her. However, he chose the person and fell in love with her. He could only blame himself for being blind. "You get the chip, decrypt it, and make a complete copy for me. If you agree, I will give it to you."
Xiao Qiao was stunned. She didn't expect the major to make such a request. In her opinion, it was ridiculous. The chip was given to her. According to her personality, how could she be willing to give her a complete copy of the information.
It's good enough if it's not destroyed.
Why does Wesley think that even if she agrees, she will give it to him as promised?
She doesn't have that much confidence in herself.
"Why?"
"I need..."
"Why give me the chip!" Xiao Qiao asked in a deep voice, looking at Wesley, her heart was heavy. She was not a trustworthy person at all. Especially in this matter, she suffered a lot. How could she be willing to let others suffer the same pain and confusion as herself? This is a kind of pain that cannot be relieved. She has to worry about the coming of death all the time, and she has to worry about becoming a monster all the time.
Life is short, enjoy it while you can. She was afraid that she had not enjoyed enough happiness, and everything would turn into a bubble, so she had always lived freely and did whatever she wanted to make herself happy.
Loving someone deeply was not something that made her feel very happy.
"Since you are a semi-finished human weapon, you must need the secret in the chip to recover. You need her." Wesley said lightly, without any emotion, "I am willing to give it to you."
This was the most special confession that Xiao Qiao had ever heard.
This object was so important that Wesley had defended it with his life. No matter how many times she asked, he refused categorically. She didn't expect him to offer it to her on his own initiative.
Just because she needed it.
Xiao Qiao didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at Wesley and felt blocked in her heart. When did he decide to give him the chip? Just today, she was running around, trying to run out of New York, and she was angry with Wesley. Why did she want to escape forever? She didn't even want to have a deep involvement with Wesley, but he was willing to give her the chip that so many people had sacrificed their lives to protect.
This was supposed to be a happy thing, but she just couldn't feel happy.
She felt so upset.
She wanted this chip, she wanted it desperately, even if it cost her life, it was the key to her survival, it was the beginning of all the conspiracies and secrets, she wanted it eagerly.
Get it, use it, destroy it.
But if she took this chip, it was equivalent to taking Wesley's trust.
She couldn't afford it!
"Isn't this what you always wanted?" Wesley asked.
"This is indeed what I always wanted." Xiao Qiao said, "but I didn't know that this is also what you always wanted."
"So, we need a win-win situation. I'll give you the chip, and you'll give me a complete one."
"Why didn't you ask me for the chip? Maybe I would give it to you and you would give me a complete one. The meaning is not that different." Xiao Qiao said.
"You won't give it to me." Wesley said. He knew how defensive Xiao Qiao was and what Xiao Qiao was thinking. It was impossible to give him the chip, but he wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
Xiao Qiao's health could not be delayed any longer. He asked Lu Xiaojiu and the situation was not optimistic.
There is currently no way in this world that can save Xiao Qiao. He can only gamble that there is a way to save Xiao Qiao in this chip.
"How do you know? I am willing to give you a complete information. I am deeply hurt by it. I don't want others to be hurt like me. Wesley, you shouldn't trust me. Maybe I will let you down."
"Did you give me any expectations?" he asked.
Xiao Qiao was stunned, yes, had she given Wesley any expectations?
She must have always been disappointed with Wesley.
But the more disappointed he became, the more frustrated he became.
Wesley grabbed her wrist and put the chip in her hand, "If each of us holds a chip and no one is willing to hand it over, in the end the chip will be just a piece of iron, which is useless."
Xiao Qiao's wrist, pressed against his skin, was so hot that it was boiling hot. This fire burned into her heart. In fact, her biggest fear for the rest of her life was not being let down, but letting others down. .
Love, hope, and trust are all afraid of being let down.
The person who loves you the most will always compromise first.
Wesley never said how much he loved her, but his actual actions showed her his true feelings. She never thought that Wesley would give her the chip, which was considered a violation of Wesley's principle.
She has always been uncompromising on matters of principle.
"I don't really want to hand this thing over to the National Security Bureau." Xiao Qiao said.
"I know."
"I don't really believe everything your mother says."
"I know."
"Since you know everything, why give it to me."
"Because I want you to live." Wesley said solemnly, "Stay with me for a long time."
This was the most affectionate farewell she had ever heard.
It was also the most sensational sentence Wesley said. He was such a tough and cold-hearted person, but when he spoke sweet words, he was less gentle, but more precious and firm. Just like him, he always gave people safety. Reliable feel.
He couldn't find any softness in his body, but he gave her all the tenderness he had.
Xiao Qiao is not a hard-hearted person, nor is her heart a stone. On the contrary, she cherishes the tenderness, care and waiting given to her by everyone more than anyone else.
"That's not fair." Xiao Qiao said.
One of them wants to give, while the other wants to run away. This kind of relationship is not fair at all. Her heart is extremely heavy. A small chip in her hand is like... a thousand pounds, it seems to be crushed. Her bones.
She didn't understand that apart from her good looks, what else about her deserved Wesley's sacrifice.
Could it be that, between men and women, just being good-looking is enough?
"There is nothing fair about this." Wesley said that Xiao Qiao has always been resistant to feelings, and he knew some of the reasons. Whether it was whether she had loved someone before, killed her lover, or some other reasons, in the final analysis, The biggest fear in her heart is that her body will change at any time. This is the reason for her to resist him, and there is nothing else.
"Are you willing to give me a complete copy of the information?" He spread everything out in front of her.
"..." Xiao Qiao clenched the chip in his hand, "Okay."
Wesley's ice-blue eyes flashed with depth, covered with a thin layer of ice-like coldness and hardness, like a permanent gesture guarding a rose blooming in the snowy mountains, "I believe in you."
For Xiao Qiao, "I love you" is far less important than "I believe in you", because she said that I love you, as natural as eating and breathing, but saying that I believe in you is extremely difficult.
All her words were stuck in her throat.
Wesley sent Xiao Qiao back to Wuyoumen. He was afraid that there might be something wrong with the chip along the way, so he had to send her safely to Wuyoumen. Only then did he feel at ease. "Just stay at Wuyoumen and don't go anywhere. I'll pick you up after get off work." Home."
"oh……"
Xiao Qiao was absent-minded and frightened. She always felt that things were out of her control and didn't know what to say. Wesley was pleased by her appearance.
She is willing to worry, which is better than being careless. At least, this proves that she has him in her heart and is willing to think about it. Even if the final result is not satisfactory, at least she has considered it.
