The God of Wealth: Her Top Game of Thrones

Chapter 1270 is very interesting.

Tang Tang held a porcelain teacup in her hand, her expression thoughtful. Her fingertips unconsciously tapped the teacup lightly as she said in a low voice, "So, was the person who targeted you really an accident?"

Edwin looked up at Tang Tang, then chuckled softly, "I don't think so."

He shook his head. "This method is really stupid. I don't think someone who is competing with me for the same award would use such a simplistic method."

Although the award was practically nothing to Edwin, he didn't think the man was a fool.

“I’m more inclined to think this is…” Edwin’s expression was subtle, “…a lesson? Or a deterrent? A notification? In short, it seems like they just want to teach me a lesson.”

Seeing that Edwin still had time to joke, Tang Tang gave him a speechless look and said, "You're quite easygoing."

Edwin gave Tang Tang a very gentlemanly and innocent smile. "After all, I'm just a researcher who can't even kill a chicken."

That's a bit unbelievable, bro. How could your weak researchers be researching all sorts of terrifying potions?

He really is powerless... Moreover, Tang Tang has touched Edwin's muscles many times, and those full muscles don't look like they lack explosive power.

She rolled her eyes. "Stop pretending."

Edwin laughed immediately. He looked at Tang Tang and said with a hint of teasing, "Okay, I admit... I do have a few tricks up my sleeve."

He looked at Tang Tang seriously and said, "But at the moment, at least in the open, I really can't make any big moves. The FBI doesn't suspect me of treason, but they suspect me of possessing experimental drugs, and they may also suspect my loyalty or something like that."

"Loyalty?" Tang Tang's face showed a strange expression. "You have such a fine quality?"

“I didn’t,” Edwin shrugged slightly, his tone unhurried, “that’s why they’re worried.”

"So, do you have any drugs hidden away?"

“Of course I hid it,” Edwin said with a matter-of-fact smile. “No, how can you call that hiding it?”

His eyes were fixed on Tang Tang, with an undisguised malice in them. "I was just keeping a few keepsakes of my work."

Tang Tang twitched her lips. "Watch your expression. Your evil personality is taking over."

“Sorry,” Edwin said, controlling his expression and becoming polite again. “They were the ones who broke the rules first; I was just using their methods.”

Tang Tang stroked her chin and asked curiously, "For example?"

"For example, the initial research project wasn't about those damn chemical reagents at all," Edwin said with a hint of sarcasm. "I had absolutely no interest in those things; the initial project was about something else entirely."

"They forcibly changed your experimental project?"

Tang Tang looked at Edwin in surprise, "I thought you weren't the type to accept things so easily?"

To be honest, although Tang Tang and Edwin had slept together, they didn't actually know each other very well.

Tang Tang initially slept with Edwin mainly because she liked his face and physique, and of course, his good temperament and the fun they had together... It just so happened that Edwin also had feelings for her.

Of course she knew this man was not simple... he was even dangerous... but so what? Tang Tang didn't care about any of that. No one in this world could lay a hand on her.

Therefore, their current conversation seems to be a deeper exchange for both of them.

Edwin was clearly very willing to be frank with Tang Tang about some things: "The Americas are a world of capital, and everything here is controlled by capital."

“I could certainly question a project that has been suddenly changed… but that would be a hassle.”

He said, "It was very troublesome, so I accepted it, but that doesn't mean I'll forget about it."

Tang Tang looked at him and shrugged slightly. "A man who holds grudges."

“Actually, many people are petty,” Edwin readily admitted. “I think I’m a little better than many people, at least I admit it.”

"Okay," Tang Tang said lazily, looking at him and admiring Edwin's handsome face once more. "You're good-looking, so what you say makes sense."

"So what do you want to do?"

Tang Tang rested her chin on her hand and said, "I've already retaliated against Reginald... You know who Reginald is, right?"

Edwin chuckled. "Of course, so what did you do to him?"

"Here."

Tang Tang raised her chin, indicating that Edwin should take it and look at it himself.

Edwin raised an eyebrow, and the next second, the video of Reginald from that night appeared on the projector again.

The entire meeting room echoed with Reginald's pleas for mercy. Edwin was watching a video, and Tang Tang was watching Edwin.

She was watching Edwin's expression, which showed only a slight hint of disdain, nothing more.

He noticed Tang Tang's gaze and looked at her. "What's wrong? You finally remembered we haven't seen each other in a long time... and then you started admiring my face again?"

...Why does he sound like a resentful husband?

Tang Tang twitched her lips. "I just want to know your opinion on this video."

"Opinion?" Edwin hesitated for a moment, as if he was choosing his words. "Well... the filming technique was a bit bad, the lighting was terrible, but the sound recording was pretty good. That old guy Reginald seems to have a good lung capacity."

Is this what I meant?

Tang Tang sighed, "Don't force me to hit you, okay? My hits really hurt."

Edwin replied sincerely, "Yes, I can tell from the video."

Tang Tang said quietly, "You seem quite happy."

And he's also good at being sarcastic.

Edwin chuckled. "I've been reflecting on this, and I'm worried that you're not contacting me because your time is being taken up by all sorts of younger boys."

So, what is the conclusion of your self-reflection?

"The result is that I found that you don't care about the age difference, but after thinking about it, smart people should still increase their competitiveness."

"If you really want to become young again, the only way is to start over," Tang Tang offered Edwin a perfunctory consolation. "It's okay, Professor Edwin. At least we can play the forbidden professor-student game."

Edwin paused, then looked at Tang Tang with a hint of admiration. "Nikolaita, you are a very thoughtful student."

Is this considered flirting? I don't think so.

Tang Tang looked completely innocent. "Is there something wrong with what I said?"

“No,” Edwin said gently, looking at Tang Tang. “Very well, if you really choose my class, then I will deduct all your points, dear.”

Tang Tang blinked.

"Then you'll be left with nowhere to go but to come to my office—"

"Professor, you are also a very insightful professor."

Tang Tang was also very sincere.
