"Why are you coming here? The office is about to close already."
As Yuqi seemed to be in the middle of packing up her bags, Xiaoyun calmly took a seat first. Then he looked over to her with sincere eyes.
"I had been talking to Liuqian and several other individuals for three hours straight. Guess what I managed to pull off."
"What?"
"I secured us three billion dollars in private funding."

"There is no cost. You don't need to pay a cent. And don't worry, I'm not selling stuff to the salvage group."
After a few seconds of silence, Yuqi finally finished zipping up her bag as she turned around to look him in the eye.
"Free food doesn't fall from the sky. What's the tradeoff?"
"There's no tradeoff, I'm serious. They chose to give the military free money like a charitable donation."
