Chapter 714: 714
“Why the formalities?” said Xia Lei with a smile . “I was just saying it casually back then . There really isn’t a need to be so formal . ”
“Come with me . ” Jacqueline Eva seemed not to want to waste any more words and she went straight towards her room .
“What for?” Xia Lei knew, but he asked anyway .
Jacqueline Eva looked back at him and smiled . She stretched out a slender hand to him and beckoned .
This gesture was more convincing than words .
Xia Lei got up and followed her to the door of her room .
Jacqueline Eva entered her room and opened the box containing the perfume . There were six bottles of perfume in it, and the cover of one of the bottles was open . Thick perfume wafted from it .
“Incompetent . He can’t even do a simple thing right . ” Jacqueline Eva frowned and grumbled about the man who had delivered the perfume .
Xia Lei stood in the doorway, just looking but not going in . He breathed as shallowly as possible .
“It’s fine, though . The perfume makes one feel comfortable, wouldn’t you say so, Mr Xia?” Jacqueline Eva stared straight at Xia Lei . Her smile was mesmerising . Under the light, she looked even sharper, more in-focus — full breasts, slender waist, and peachy buttocks . The curves of her body could make one’s nose bleed . Add the dim, mysterious atmosphere of the place magnified the clout of her beauty .
If it had been any other man, he would have thrown himself at her long ago, but Xia Lei still stood in the doorway, not moving .
He knew it was a trap, so he would be a fool if he still jumped in .
Jacqueline Eva lifted a shoulder . “Do you plan to keep standing in the doorway?”
Xia Lei nodded . “I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop myself if I go in . ”
“Stop yourself?”
“From what I’d want to do to you . ”
Jacqueline Eva giggled . “You can do whatever you want . Why hold back?”
Xia Lei still didn’t move . He resisted the temptress .
Jacqueline Eva felt like taking her high heel off and bashing Xia Lei on the head with it . Her lips moved as if to say something but she chose to do something else in the end . She reached out a hand to touch her forehead and said weakly, “Oh, my head . I’m so dizzy . I must’ve had too much to drink . ” Her legs seemed to lose strength and she grew unsteady on her feet . She fell gently onto the bed .
She had one leg on the bed and one on the floor . Her legs were spread, exposing that area between her legs to the eye . The air of seduction was as thick as could be .
Xia Lei still did not move .
Jacqueline Eva peeked at Xia Lei out of the corner of her eye . His reaction depressed her but she still maintained that position for two minutes . She couldn’t stand it anymore after two minutes, and rolled to sit up on the bed in one movement . “Must you make me come to you and pull you over?”
“Your perfume has a drug in it that induces hypnosis, and I don’t mean the type that sends people to sleep . And you also have a camera and a listening device in that makeup case by your bedside . I am not an actor who performs for those sort of films, so I’ll have to pass,” said Xia Lei flatly .
“You… know about all of it?” The charming look on Jacqueline Eva’s face disappeared immediately, and the desire in her eyes dimmed . Her gaze grew sharp .
“It’s the same trap . I’ve skipped past it twice, so you can’t expect me to fall for it on the third try, right?”
Jacqueline Eva stared blankly . She had indeed used Marie’s Desire on Xia Lei twice . The first time she’d used it was when she had sent him to the Louvre, and the second time was the night when Xia Lei had been kidnapped . This was the third time now, but Xia Lei was not falling for it on the third try . How was she going to continue with the plan?
“You can keep acting, but I’ll just stand here and watch,” said Xia Lei .
Jacqueline Eva was speechless .
“Or you could put those things away . We can have a proper talk,” said Xia Lei .
Jacqueline Eva shrugged awkwardly, then climbed off the bed and put away her spy equipment . She couldn’t figure out how Xia Lei knew about all of her preparations, but she knew that he wouldn’t tell her even if she asked .
A few minutes later, Xia Lei walked into Jacqueline Eva’s room and the first thing he did was to open the windows to let fresh air in . He then sat on the sofa .
Jacqueline Eva sat opposite him . “All right, let’s have a proper talk . I’ll be frank . You are asking for too much, and we are unable to fulfil your request . The aircraft carrier is an ultimate weapon so we will definitely not hand its technology over to you . You have to understand too that we will face serious consequences should America find out . ”
“I understand,” said Xia Lei . “So I am willing to take a step back . I will exchange the technology of the Thunder Dragon intelligent lathe, XL2500 sniper rifle and Gust assault rifle for your avionics and stealth technology for the Eurofighter Typhoon . ”
“We can’t do that . One’s light weapons’ technology and the other is technology of a fighter jet . The stealth technology for the Eurofighter Typhoon, in particular . Only the Americans are better than us when it comes to stealth technology, and no other country can beat up . In other words, you’re using light weapons’ technology to try to exchange for the technology of the second-best stealth technology in the world . How is this reasonable?”
“I think it is . The XL2500 is the world’s best sniper rifle, and the Gust assault rifle too . It isn’t just planes which are used in battles, right? People are still the main focus . I know that France is entangled in the war in Africa and cannot leave . You guys want to win the war, but are unwilling to die . Use my light weapons . The soldiers of France are all great snipers . You can win the battle without even having to interact with the enemy . I am exchanging the world’s best light weapons’ technology for your aircraft carrier technology and stealth technology . Do you still think that this is a loss for you?”
“Mr Xia, it’s not like what you say . It’s…”
