Chapter 42: Puffed to Death (Part 2)

~7 min read 1,271 words

William Douglas was never a kind person, nor was he a generous person. The places where he showed generosity all had one thing in common: they were all people who could let him see the hope of eternal life. Only then would he be generous. This behavior of his is called casting a wide net to catch fish.

And the reason why he could tolerate Ye Nan was entirely because he told him about the Blood Orchid. Before getting the Blood Orchid, William Douglas showed great tolerance for all his actions, but this tolerance made him feel uneasy.

In ancient China, many emperors showed tolerance to their subordinates. No matter what they did, even if they did things that angered heaven and people, the emperors turned a blind eye. For the open and secret arrows of other ministers, they blocked them for their subordinates, which can be said to be painstaking.

These ministers were all corrupt officials, such as Qin Hui, such as Heshen. Why is this? Because the emperor needs them to exist, needs them as corrupt officials to scrape the silver of the common people and officials, while Heshen, Qin Hui and others don't see the emperor's thoughts, and keep making money and excluding dissidents. As a result, in the end, all their money fell into the hands of the emperor. They were just temporarily keeping money for the emperor.

All the bad names fell on the corrupt officials, and all the money fell into the hands of the emperor. This method is called the art of the emperor.

And now Ye Nan is like Heshen and Qin Hui at that time, and William Douglas, the underground emperor of the United States, is like the emperor in ancient China. The tolerance William Douglas showed him now is entirely because of the existence of the Blood Orchid. Once the Blood Orchid is found, he will have no value, and will be abandoned like a pair of worn-out shoes.

Thinking of this, Ye Nan's heart felt like it had fallen into an abyss, unable to see where the road ahead was. Blood Orchid, Blood Orchid, as long as the Blood Orchid is obtained, he will inevitably be abandoned, unless the Blood Orchid cannot be obtained. It's just that it won't work if it can't be obtained. Although he doesn't know why William Douglas would easily believe his words, he can be sure that Douglas must have his own calculations. Perhaps he had already sent someone to go to the Amazon basin one step ahead, or perhaps he had already investigated it.

"Forget it, forget it, take one step at a time. When that time really comes, plan it well. Now I need to strengthen my own strength, so that I won't even have the strength to fight back." Ye Nan thought to himself.

Wesker was stunned when he heard William Douglas's voice on the phone, and then said a few words before hanging up. However, after hanging up, Wesker's face became obviously gloomy, and the phone in his hand turned into powder under his strength.

He didn't expect that asking Douglas would be such a result. He never dared to doubt William Douglas's words. He knew very well what kind of person this old man was: forbearing, cunning, a smiling tiger. All words used to describe cunning people can be used on him, but there is one point, that is, he keeps his word.

If he said he would give the Umbrella Corporation to Ye Nan, then he would really give the Umbrella Corporation to Ye Nan. Although he is only one of the directors and has not fully mastered the Umbrella Corporation, no one can resist William Douglas. This is the confidence of the top families in the United States.

Since World War II, Americans have used the US dollar to pry open the doors of the world, and the William family has also expanded to the world with the influence of the United States. He waved US dollars and bought into one company after another that he liked. For him, US dollars are just like waste paper.

He absolutely believes that those greedy directors can never resist William Douglas's banknotes. Even his foster father Spencer cannot resist William Douglas. The final result is being swept out of the house....

So his face became so ugly. From being majestic just now, he would become a dandy he looked down upon in the blink of an eye. His arrogance did not allow this to happen. He even wanted to shoot Ye Nan, the culprit, but he didn't dare. He wasn't afraid of Ye Nan, but afraid of William Douglas standing behind Ye Nan.

"How about it, Mr. Wesker, how is it?" Ye Nan said with a sneer. Since he knew William Douglas's tolerance bottom line for him, he became even more rampant. He even wanted to get more and more, but he knew very well that even if he got the Umbrella Corporation, he couldn't eat such a big company.

The Umbrella Corporation is a medical company on the surface, but it is actually a multinational arms company. Privately, it is even more frantic to research viruses and manufacture them into biochemical weapons, selling them to various governments, which can be said to be a great profit.

Wesker was silent for a while, put on his sunglasses, and said coldly: "You won." After speaking, he turned and left, leaving a back, and the other bodyguards also turned and left. In the blink of an eye, the house became cold.

"So handsome." Ellie suddenly said with a fanatical look. It is also true that every move of Wesker has a tough guy style, which is very attractive to women. Ellie hadn't seen it before, but now that she saw it, she would naturally have all kinds of fantasies.

"A very arrogant person." Michelle said with a smile, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Wesker is a very terrifying person, don't look down on him." Dr. Ashford said: "When he was a researcher under Marcus, I had seen him. He was a very talented person. However, because he couldn't stand William being better than him, he turned into an intelligence person. Starting from halfway, walking to this step, he can be said to be an all-around genius."

Ye Nan was silent for a while, listening to their description, and then combined with the Wesker he saw in the Resident Evil movie series, he suddenly smiled: "He is indeed a genius, but he is not as good as me."

Although the words were arrogant, Ye Nan had strong self-confidence. This is not talent, but the self-confidence brought by rebirth, innate, high above, looking down on all living beings.

Many characters in the movie, perhaps they are talented, perhaps their luck is strong, but there is one point they are not as good as Ye Nan, and that is knowledge. They still cannot jump out of their own world, and Ye Nan has already taken that step.

"Too narcissistic." Ellie looked at Ye Nan with contempt, as if Ye Nan had tarnished her worship of Wesker in her heart.

Michelle looked at Ye Nan, his face always with a smile, "Mr. Ye Nan is indeed hidden, knowing people's hearts."

"Ye Nan, both of my daughters are handed over to you. I hope you will treat them well." Dr. Ashford said reluctantly. After Wesker's trouble, he was more certain that Ye Nan could protect his two daughters and could replace himself to take care of them. His heart was at ease. ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
