Armipotent

Chapter 446 - The Right Person

Li Shuang stared at Tang Shaoyang in a daze. He did not want her to just warm his bed and raise her daughter. He wanted more from her, not just sexual intercourse. She could understand his train of thoughts.

Many women were willing to be his women, but he did not need just any moment. Li Shuang was thinking hard, what she was good at. By the way he was speaking to her, he wanted her to fight as well.

Li Shuang tensed up as she could not imagine herself fighting the zombies. It was not like she had not tried it yet. She did try and she was just too weak to kill the zombie. It was too late to start as the zombies had grown far too strong than originally it was.

”I am not asking you to fight the zombie. What was your job before the Game?” Tang Shaoyang could tell the girl was tense when he was brought up; she had to be useful if she wanted to stay next to him.

Tang Shaoyang was surprised to hear about her past. Li Shuang was leading a big company, at least she claimed so. Domestically, her company was within the top 100 companies in the country. She was a rich lady before the game screwed up her luxury life to the point of selling her body to him.

”Does that mean you are good at taking care of something related to management and money?” Tang Shaoyang brightened up at the thought. It seemed he had divine luck to find this mature lady as he was lacking someone like her to take care of his territory.

”I am not bad at it,” Li Shuang did not dare to boast her capability. She chose the humble answer.

”I am talking about an empire with the size of the province, for now, and it keeps growing. Will you be able to handle it?” Tang Shaoyang asked for affirmation from the woman.

He would not trust her just because they had been sleeping together. This was an official business, not between a man and a woman. He wanted to see if she had the confidence of handling an empire, managing the territory, people, and the treasury. He wanted this position held by his woman instead of other people.

Of course, he was going to trust his own women with something this big than the others. While a contract might work to bind his subordinates, there must be a way to break the contract without bearing the consequence. He was not going to rely on something like this while he had an ability that could capture a womanʼs body and heart.

”Empire?” This was the first time Li Shuang heard about the empire, ”Do you build an empire?” She looked at Tang Shaoyang with unbelievable eyes.

”Yes, and I am the Emperor. Thatʼs why I donʼt need a useless girl to be my company. I need someone who can help me manage my territory and my people,” Tang Shaoyang nodded while explaining the thing he had not told her.

The girl seemed to not believe him, then he did something that would make her believe him. Li Shuang heard a static robotic voice in her head.

[The Emperor of the Tang Empire has invited you to join the Tang Empire! Yes. No.]

She looked at the interface in a daze, blinking her eyes a few times to make sure this was not a dream. This was real, the man in front of her proclaimed to be an Emperor, ʼDoes this mean he betrayed our nation?ʼ It was not like she was fond of her nation, but the consequence for doing so…

”Didnʼt you tell us thereʼs an army protecting the base?” For the first time, she asked Tang Shaoyang. When he said an army, she thought it was the countryʼs military regiment, and he was part of it. It seemed she was totally wrong about that.

”Yes, my army is protecting the base. We have a police force too, we call them TEIS in the Empire. We have farms as well to secure our food with potatoes as our main focus,” Tang Shaoyang explained the current situation of the base, ”Do you think you can help me to manage the territory?” He repeated the question.

Li Shuang did not immediately give her answer. Her concern was the nationʼs military force. She was afraid that they were being labeled as traitors and hunted down by them.

While she was contemplating, for some unknown reasons. She remembered last nightʼs activity, the pleasure, and the satisfaction. She remembered everything clearly and she did not want to part with that.

”I can do it, but of course, I canʼt do it alone. I need a team to manage that big territory,” Li Shuang replied confidently. If it was something she was confident with, it was to manage people and money.

Tang Shaoyang smiled when he heard the answer. He pulled her closer and started to kiss her. She responded to the kiss as she circled her hand on his neck. She pulled herself even closer to the man.

His hand started to roam around her breasts again. The suppressed moan flowed out of her lips. When she thought that he was about to undress her, he pulled his hand and their lips parted.

Tang Shaoyang grinned at her, ”We are not doing it, duh. I need to do something now,” he managed to hold back with great difficulty.

”Are you going somewhere?” Li Shuangʼs face was red but she managed to ask him.

”There are two other groups. I need to visit them and also clean the remnant zombies,” Tang Shaoyang stood up and kissed her on the cheek, ”We will continue tonight, get ready.”

He was about to leave her, but her hand reached him, ”I am going to follow you,” that was a surprise reaction from her. He thought she was afraid of the bloody things and also the zombies.

”Are you sure? Things may turn bloody, you know?” It was not that he did not bring her with him. It was not that she was not prepared for this after what happened yesterday and the days before. Letting her get some rest to regain her spirit would be the best.

”No, I am sure. I want to follow,” Li Shuang would regret her decision shortly after.
