Cheng Jinyan: “Please excuse me.”
This guy was really embarrassing. I wanted to dig a hole to bury him in.
Old Liu looked at Ye Si, whose face was arrogant and looked at everyone like they were trash, and laughed: “I don’t know why you came to our place.”
Cheng Jinyan: “I heard your place is willing to help Hua Country people. This young lady got lost. I wonder if you can send her back home.”
Old Liu looked towards the girl Cheng Jinyan was talking about.
The girl had injuries on her body, red marks around her wrists and ankles as if she had been tied up, she was tense like a startled rabbit.
One look and you could tell she was saved from the Wuma Family auction house.
Lost her way?
Got lost all the way to Arkenlin? His excuse was too unbelievable.
The young man’s name was Xu Zheng. He had long disliked the Wuma Family’s dirty business. Normally he would help out with this kind of thing, but clearly this time Qiao Ying and the others were asking for help at the wrong time.
He lowered his voice and said to Old Liu: “The Wuma Family is hunting them down right now. Let’s not get involved in this muddy water.”
Old Liu thought for a moment: “Okay.”
Xu Zheng frowned.
Cheng Jinyan: “This young lady was badly frightened. Can you let our people accompany her?” Have Ye Si send two of his men to escort her.
Xu Zheng was a little annoyed: “If you don’t trust us, why did you come looking for us? The exit is over there. We won't send you off!”
Old Liu: “Okay.”
Xu Zheng looked at Old Liu and started to get angry.
He actually agreed so easily. Cheng Jinyan and Qiao Ying looked at each other, was this arms dealer really kind or fake kind?
If he was really kind then the chances of him being the Ace of Spades would be lower. If he was fake kind, could he be like the fake charitable King of Hearts?
Cheng Jinyan continued speaking to Old Liu: “Also, we wanted to talk to you about doing some business, we want to buy some weapons.”
Old Liu: “Okay.”
Cheng Jinyan: “We also need a place to stay, let’s talk price.”
Old Liu: “No.”
They just burned down the Wuma Family's assets, and then came to their territory. Who knew if they would make trouble or not.
Daring to provoke the Wuma Family, they didn't seem like people who were afraid to cause trouble. So their purpose in coming to their territory was suspicious.
Old Liu: “You all clearly have skills. Our temple is small and can’t accommodate you. Please leave.”
Ye Si: “Why don’t you just directly say you're afraid of the Wuma Family.”
Xu Zheng: “If you're not afraid, why did you come to ask us for help?”
Ye Si: “Because we looked up to you.”
Xu Zheng: “You---”
Simply shameless!
Old Liu stopped Xu Zheng while still smiling: “We are businessmen. We don't do unprofitable things. Besides, you all...” Old Liu looked at them: “Have unclear identities.”
Students? Lawyers? Do they believe that themselves?
Only the last one who looks like a boss seems believable.
Old Liu: “We really don’t want to get involved in this muddy water. Leave the girl here, we will send her back home for you. As for everything else, let’s not discuss it for now.”
And so they were sent away again.
Standing at the border between the Wuma Family’s territory, Qiao Ying said: “Wait for me, I’m going back for a bit.”
And she turned around and went back.
The girl was left behind. Despite being annoyed, Xu Zheng still arranged for people to help Ye Si’s men escort the girl back home.
Xu Zheng: “You clearly knew the girl was from the Wuma Family auction house. For them to send her here so openly, what if it was to cause us disaster? By taking her in, wouldn’t you be giving the Wuma Family an opportunity to make trouble for us? There would be a huge misunderstanding.”
Old Liu waved his hand: “Haven’t we had conflicts with the Wuma Family over the years? One more doesn’t make a difference.”
Xu Zheng: “I’m not afraid of the Wuma Family! We still don’t know the identities of those people clearly. Who knows what their intention was in bringing the girl here.”
Old Liu: “I’ll have someone investigate their backgrounds. Contact the boss and let him know too. These people are not simple characters. If he doesn’t have ill intentions towards us and is just asking us for this small favor in order to make friends, then fine. But if he has other motives, then he would be a tricky opponent to deal with.”
Boss? After hearing their conversation, Qiao Ying left.
At home,
Qin Yan knocked on Qin Hanyue’s office door.
“Young Master, there are some unfamiliar faces in Arkenlin. Based on Xu Zheng’s description, it sounds like Miss Qiao, Ye Si and Lawyer Cheng are there.”
Qin Yan had a very deep impression of Ye Si's head of silver-white hair. As soon as Xu Zheng vaguely described those people's "unlikeable" identities and appearances, Qin Yan immediately thought of Ye Si.
Qin Hanyue raised his eyes: “Arkenlin?”
She actually went to Arkenlin?
“Yes. Yesterday they burned down the Wuma Family’s auction house and are currently wanted by them. Today they came to our territory wanting to buy weapons.”
Burning down the Wuma Family’s auction house sounds like something Miss Qiao would do.
Qin Yan: “Young Master, why don’t you give Miss Qiao a call to confirm? Miss Qiao acts boldly with unique tastes. Don’t let her burn down our territory too, that would be a huge misunderstanding.”
Qin Hanyue: “Did they sell them weapons?”
Qin Yan: “No. It’s precisely because the deal didn’t go through that I’m worried Miss Qiao will hold a grudge.”
-
In the few days after the Wuma Family auction house was burned down, not only were the arsonists not captured, many of the people they sent out were killed instead.
The corpses were even arrogantly dumped at their doorstep.
Teng Yan: “Let’s report to the Family and ask them to send some men here. Those people won’t be easy to deal with.”
Wuma Lin: “Shut up! You don’t get a say in this, much less get to teach me what to do—What are you still standing here for? Go find those people for me!”
Teng Yan: “No need to look anywhere else. They probably fled to that drug lord or arms dealer’s territory.”
Hearing this, Wuma Lin immediately sent people over there.
The result was the more people he sent, the more people died.
And so Teng Yan watched as Wuma Lin sent people to their deaths. The more people died, the harder it was for Wuma Lin to explain to the Family. If Qiao Ying angers him even more, even Wuma Lin would die here.
Saving him a lot of trouble.
Under the night sky,
A petite figure freely traversed this territory.
She had already made contact with both the Wuma Family and that arms dealer. It was hard to confirm at the moment. Right now, Qiao Ying was heading towards that drug lord’s territory.
She had already burned down the Wuma Family’s auction house and killed quite a few of their men, but nothing much had happened yet.
Qiao Ying was thinking to pick a day in a couple days to simply blow up that arms dealer’s weapons depot to lure out the “Boss” behind him.
She would also try this drug lord’s territory.
She refuses to believe there is nothing to find.
As Qiao Ying was walking, there was suddenly the sound of engines ahead. Two beams from car headlights shone ahead. A car seemed to be stuck in a mud pit and couldn’t get out.
“Young Master, the car won't come out. Should I go find people to help?” Qin Yan said as he got out of the car to check the situation of the tires again.
Qin Yan groped around in the dark for a rock to prop under the tire.
“Driving this kind of car to a place like this.”
The sudden voice almost scared Qin Yan to death. He yelped and sat down hard on the ground, flinging the phone he was using as a flashlight off to the side.
Damn it! A ghost!
“Who’s there?!” Qin Yan quickly raised his head to look, the newcomer's long hair covered some of their face, and he couldn't fully see them clearly with the help of the car lights.
It’s a female ghost!
Qin Yan grabbed his phone off the ground and shined the flashlight over.
Qiao Ying narrowed her eyes against the glare and turned her face slightly away.
Qin Yan: “Miss Qiao?”
To think it was really her here making trouble!
Qin Hanyue got out of the car.
Qiao Ying looked at him with a teasing smile: “Mr. Qin, here to do business again?”
With the same teasing tone, Qin Hanyue asked her in return: “Here sightseeing again?”
Qin Yan stood up from the ground: “Wow... Miss Qiao, what a coincidence!”
Qin Hanyue: “I just arrived and it’s already dark. Where are you planning to go at this time?”
Qiao Ying: “Just walking around everywhere.” She paused for a bit looking at Qin Hanyue’s face, then suddenly said: “Together?”
Qin Hanyue: “Sure.”
Qiao Ying: “This way.”
Qin Hanyue followed her.
Left behind, Qin Yan looked left and right: “Uh...what about me?”
What was he supposed to do?! It was pitch black here. Leaving him alone with a car that can’t move.
He’s afraid of the dark!
Cheng Jinyan: “Please excuse me.”
This guy was really embarrassing. I wanted to dig a hole to bury him in.
Old Liu looked at Ye Si, whose face was arrogant and looked at everyone like they were trash, and laughed: “I don’t know why you came to our place.”
