Chapter 307: Using Yourself as Bait

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

This shameless old man, they had just been dating her for less than half a day, and he was already teaching her how to kiss so seriously.

Jiang Yining snorted lightly, “1 didn’t learn it, 1 don’t want to.”

“Then I’ll teach you again…”

Lu Zhi was about to kiss again.

Jiang Yining was really afraid of him and quickly said, “I’ve learned it! I’ve learned it! Save it. You don’t have to teach me.”

Lu Zhi’s fingers gently caressed her earlobe and said, “Remember it even if you learn it. In the future, I will do spot checks frequently.”

Jiang Yining was speechless.

Why didn’t she realize that Lu Zhi could be so sultry?

Lu Zhi looked at the obedient little thing in his arms.

His heart itched.

Kissing was no longer enough to satisfy him.

He really wanted to eat her in one bite.

However, he couldn’t just yet…

She was still young. Let’s wait a bit longer.

At night –

Qi Feng brought dozens of people into the Peninsula Manor.

They listened to Lu Zhi’s arrangements and protected the Curium ore.

The next day.

Jiang Yining entered the secret passage again and took out fifty milliliters of Curium ore.

Previously, she wanted Lu Zhi to hire someone to help her synthesize this substance.

Now that she had natural Curium ores, there was no need to waste that effort.

Then, she called Old Master Tao and told him that she had Curium.

Elder Tao thought she was joking.

He had invested so much manpower and material resources, but he had not synthesized much.

Where did Jiang Yining get it?

“Miss Jiang, don’t play tricks on me.”

“Why would 1 deceive you? If you have time, why don’t you meet me in person?” Jiang Yining said.

Elder Tao was skeptical, but in the end, he couldn’t resist the great temptation.

He agreed. “Okay, I’m free this afternoon. Let’s meet at my house.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yining said and ended the call.

She looked at Lu Zhi beside her and said, “Whether it’s Elder Tao or the mastermind, they’ll definitely be interested in this thing. Why don’t we hold an auction and drive up the price of this thing? The higher the price, the more popular it will be, and the more attractive it will be to them.”

There was one company in the US and one in the capital city that was researching Curium ore. Although it was unclear who was behind them, this auction could potentially lure them out. One of the three companies must be the one who had plotted against Lin Yan and Lu Beicheng.

She just couldn’t believe otherwise.

After confirming the target, how could they not find the murderer?

Lu Zhi’s voice was cold, “If they dare to target Beicheng, they won’t show mercy to you either. Yining, 1’11 go to the meeting with Elder Tao this afternoon.”

“No, I just called Elder Tao and exposed myself. If you try to cover it up now, you’ll only make it more obvious. Neither of us will be able to escape their scrutiny.” Jiang Yining never feared confronting people head-on, and she didn’t need to hide behind Lu Zhi. “Also, other than the Xie family, no one knows the exact location of the Curium ore. We have to protect it. As long as the other party doesn’t get the Curium ore, they will keep pouncing on us like moths.”

“Lu Zhi, we’ll announce to the public that I discovered the method to synthesize Curium. I can easily synthesize as many Curium as they want.”

This way, their goal would shift from robbing the curium ore to targeting Jiang Yining.

After all, with her around, the Curium ore would be inexhaustible.

Lu Zhi’s expression turned icy, “Jiang Yining, you’re using yourself as bait and putting yourself in danger.”

He would never agree.

Jiang Yining sensed the chill in his words and walked up to him with a smile.

She wrapped her small hands around his lean waist and said, “Yes, 1 know exactly what I’m doing. I also believe that you can protect me well and will never let me be in danger.”

Lu Zhi’s body was as stiff as a rock and showed no signs of movement.

He was reluctant to let her take the risk…

However, it had to be said that Yining’s method was indeed effective.

It would definitely lure out the mastermind.

“Lu Zhi, it’s not only for your brother but also for my good friend.” Jiang Yining pressed her cheek against his chest, listened to his strong and powerful heartbeat, and said, “Lin Yan is more like a sister to me than Jiang Rou. Ever since 1 was young, whenever I was sad, she would always be by my side. Without her, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

Therefore, no matter what the price was.

She would avenge Lin Yan.

Even Lu Zhi couldn’t stop her determination.

Lu Zhi stroked her hair and said in a deep voice, “Jiang Yining, I promise you that I won’t let anything happen to you.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yining nodded, full of trust.

She trusted him.

He could fulfill his promise to her.

In the afternoon, Jiang Yining took a car to the Tao family’s old residence.

Lu Zhi had arranged a female bodyguard for her, hoping that she would have someone by her side to ensure her safety.

But Jiang Yining rejected it.

She had to pretend that everything was hidden from Lu Zhi.

To make Elder Tao lower his guard.

Lu Zhi had no choice but to send someone to watch near the Tao family’s old mansion.

Jiang Yining took a car and rushed to the Tao family.

Elder Tao was sitting in the living room feeding the parrot. When he saw her, he politely invited her to the seat. “Someone come and serve tea to Miss Jiang.”

The servant walked forward, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to her respectfully.

Jiang Yining smiled faintly and said, “Long time no see, Elder Tao.”

“Yeah, we haven’t seen each other for a while.” Ever since the Tao family fought with the Lu family and suffered great losses, he had deliberately kept a distance from the Lu family to avoid further trouble.

If Jiang Yining hadn’t called him and mentioned the Curium ore, he would still deliberately avoided her like before.

Elder Tao was anxious, not beating around the bush, and straightforwardly said, “Miss Jiang, you mentioned that you have Curium in your hands, right?”

“Yes.”

Jiang Yining took out a small glass vial from her bag.

There was 50ml of Curium inside.

“This is the Curium I refined.”

Elder Tao’s eyes widened!

It was indeed Curium!

He had hired so many people and spent nearly 60 billion to produce only 20 milliliters of Curium!

Jiang Yining actually had so much!

Wait a minute…

Did she just say that she refined it herself?

Elder Tao looked at Jiang Yining in astonishment and confirmed again as he asked, “Did you refine this yourself?”

“Yes.” Jiang Yining smiled and said, “1 heard that your company is developing this. 1 wonder if you’re interested in buying my Curium?”

Elder Tao received an affirmative answer and secretly sucked in a breath of cold air.

This Jiang Yining was undoubtedly a genius!

She was so young and yet able to refine such high-purity Curium!

If he could take her under his wing and focus on researching Curium!

In that case…

Not to mention A-City, no one in the entire country, or even the entire world, could compete with the Tao family!

Old Master Tao’s gaze at Jiang Yining was filled with greed.

“Elder Tao?”

Jiang Yining noticed his intense stare without saying anything for a long time, she couldn’t help but remind him.

Elder Tao snapped out of his thoughts and suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart. He said, “Of course, I’m interested. How much Curium do you have? 1’11 buy them all. In the future, you can sell whatever you create to me.”

He thought that Jiang Yining didn’t know much about the industry, so the price wouldn’t be so expensive.

But unexpectedly, in the next second…

Jiang Yining opened her mouth and said, “The international price is 900 dollars per milliliter of Curium. Since we’re old acquaintances, I’ll give you a 1% discount. There’s a total of 50ml here. You need to pay me a total of 44550 dollars.”

What was the difference between a discount and no discount?

It was only 450 dollars cheaper!

Elder Tao knew that Jiang Yining was deliberately teasing him, but who asked him to be so eager to get this Curium?

“Thank you, Miss Jiang. I’ll write you a check later.”

“Sure.”

Jiang Yining nodded in satisfaction.

Elder Tao inquired, “When are you going to continue refining this thing?”

“I’ve already refined a lot.”

I’ll buy them all…”

Elder Tao hadn’t finished speaking.

Jiang Yining interrupted with a smiling expression, “I’m sorry, but 1 plan to auction the remaining Curium. The highest bidder wins. I’ve already informed the other two potential buyers. Elder Tao, if you’re interested, let’s meet at the auction.”

After saying that, she stood up and walked out.

Elder Tao’s heart instantly turned cold.

He was truly foolish.

Jiang Yining was as cunning as a fox. How could she not check the Curium market in advance?

Since she dared to come alone, it meant that she had everything under control.

Holding an auction was also a strategy to make a hefty profit..
