The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 358: Sorry, She’s Married, a Wife

"Fine, I will send someone to deliver medicine to the palace regularly."

Jiang Man said calmly, looking at her wristwatch.

"Your Majesty, the conditions that my friend discussed with you, when do you plan to fulfill them?"

Conditions?

The King was momentarily stunned, belatedly realizing.

"I can issue the orders to the navy right now."

"Your Majesty, isn’t that too hasty? Whether she can cure the Prince is still uncertain! Shouldn’t we wait until the deed is accomplished before fulfilling the conditions?"

"After the deed is accomplished?" Jiang Man suddenly stood up, hands in her pockets. "Two months, and the chance will have cooled."

"If Your Majesty cannot deploy troops now, then I’m sorry, consider my visit today as never happening. You might as well wait for that Doctor Freud."

Having said that, she turned around and started walking away.

The Queen opened her mouth, her face contorted with anger.

The King shot her a glare. "The future heir to the throne or deploying a naval force— which is more important? Besides, the Blackwater Pirates have been causing trouble in the bay for years, posing a significant threat to our trade. Being able to clear them out with the peacekeeping forces is a win-win!"

"Father, I request to lead the troops into battle!"

Hearing the Prince volunteer eagerly, the Queen instantly shut her mouth.

It would be good if he went to war, even better if he died. Then they could appoint a new heir, and her child would be the new successor.

"The King is right, we must fight this war!"

Jiang Man was uninterested in their overt and covert struggles.

She only cared about the Lu family’s cargo.

If not for that cargo, she wouldn’t have bothered coming to the palace.

...

At noon, Jiang Man received the coordinates from the Blackwater Pirates on time.

They scheduled to hand over the goods on Nameless Island at the edge of international waters.

The Prince led the royal navy to the enemy’s rear.

Meanwhile, the peacekeeping forces continued to use the submarine tracking approach.

Jiang Man and two others served as bait, waiting to confirm that the goods were indeed on the island before signaling. The royal navy would then immediately surround the island.

The submarines would covertly bombard the Blackwater Pirates’ transport ships.

The plan from all three sides was thorough and coherent.

At two in the afternoon, Jiang Man arrived on time with Vermilion Bird and Seth.

Still in a speedboat, hands empty.

After Vermilion Bird and Seth disembarked, the other party searched them, confiscating all their guns.

Kuma sat on the beach, the hot sun making his dark skin glisten.

"Inspect the goods."

Jiang Man immediately spotted the stack of containers behind Kuma.

Batteries cannot be exposed to the sun, else they could self-combust.

Therefore, both parties wanted a quick negotiation.

"Sure thing."

Kuma wasn’t afraid at all.

He had first come to scout the island, arranging Water Sharks all around it.

Just as they landed, his men had confiscated the guns from the two female bodyguards.

It could be said that the three of them were now trapped like turtles in a jar.

"The goods are all here."

Kuma squinted his eyes. "Where’s the money?"

Jiang Man waved her hand.

Vermilion Bird and Seth then opened several briefcases they were carrying.

All were filled with US Dollars, shining brightly.

Jiang Man casually grabbed a bundle of money and tossed it into Kuma’s arms.

Kuma caught it precisely, wetted his finger with saliva, and quickly counted the money.

He then gestured for his men to bring the money-counting machine.

Once confirmed to be real money, his attitude immediately changed.

Grinning, he showed his white teeth. "Come, inspect the goods."

He made an inviting gesture.

Jiang Man strode forward.

Kuma narrowed his eyes, sizing up her figure.

In terms of curves, the two female bodyguards were more impressive.

But then again, he had never tasted what a rich heiress was like—was it fragrant?

Those crude bitches were too much to handle; trying something different was a refreshing change.

Jiang Man casually looked towards a container and pulled out a lithium battery.

The battery was heavy, about the size of a 28-inch suitcase.

Unlike other new energy vehicles with integrated floorboard tires, Lu’s new energy vehicles were exceptional due to their relatively small battery size yet powerful capacity.

She randomly inspected a few batteries to confirm they were the ones that Lu’s company had lost, then gave an OK gesture.

"My ship can come load the cargo now, right?"

"What’s the rush?"

Kuma’s facade dropped immediately.

He grabbed Jiang Man from beside him and his rough hand reached for her chest.

"First satisfy us a few brothers, then it won’t be late to load the cargo."

"Exactly, we need to eat our fill to have the energy to work and help you load."

"Hahaha."

There were over a dozen people on the island, and several hundred could be seen bustling around the cargo ship.

Not only Jiang Man, but Vermilion Bird and Seth were also surrounded.

More terrifying was the sight of guns being brandished on deck.

Countless gun muzzles pointed at them.

"Little beauty, cooperate with us, and I might spare your life. We’re quite ethical; we only rob, not kill."

"Really?" Jiang Man glanced at those dark gun muzzles and tugged at the corners of her mouth.

She had anticipated they’d try to play her.

But alas, those being robbed of both wealth and wellbeing wasn’t her—it was these pirates!

Vermillion Bird and Seth exchanged looks, almost simultaneously tossing their briefcases into the air.

In an instant, money fluttered in the sky, obstructing the sniper’s vision on the ship.

Seeing this, Jiang Man swiftly retaliated, grabbed Kuma’s balls and squeezed fiercely.

Even though Kuma realized it, the intense pain made it impossible for him to stand.

Jiang Man quickly hooked her arm around his neck, pulled the gun from his waist, and pressed the barrel against his temple.

On a nearby naval ship, the Prince watched everything through a high-definition telescope.

Spreading money was their signal.

Soon, a submarine started firing at the underside of the cargo ship.

The naval vessel also reached the Nameless Island in no time, and the Byi Navy forcefully invaded the island.

The pirates on the island had no chance to retaliate and were captured one after another.

"Are you okay?"

The Prince immediately came to Jiang Man’s side.

He had seen everything Kuma did to her through the telescope.

Without hesitation, he stepped on Kuma.

In the moment of exploding testicles, blood splattered.

"How dare you covet my future queen?" the Prince bellowed, his eyes fierce.

Jiang Man hesitated.

The Prince’s reaction and the man in the palace who was mild and courteous seemed entirely different.

"Wait!"

Jiang Man realized something, suddenly turned around, and looked at the man in a military uniform next to her.

"Your future queen? Who?"

"Of course, it’s you," the Prince said with a smile in his eyes as if he was not the one who had just burst someone’s balls.

"You can cure my sterility, I think it’s divine providence. If you can bear a child for me, this arrangement will become a splendid tale. Don’t you think it’s destined?"

Jiang Man was baffled.

They had only known each other for a short time.

Less than a few hours.

He was already asking her to bear his children?

Crazy!

"Prince, I think you’re mistaken. I’m not interested in being your mistress, and even less interested in having your children."

"Not interested? I understand you Chinese practice monogamy, but don’t worry, I treat my four wives equally. No, definitely favor you. I’ll only have children with you, and your child will be the new Crown Prince of Byi."

"???"

"The first time I met a woman as adorable as you, daring to talk back to the queen and made her so angry she jumped; you’re really adorable, I want to have you!"

"Your Highness, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. She’s married, she’s someone else’s wife."

Just as the Prince was frantically professing his feelings to Jiang Man, a deep, cold voice sounded...
