The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 45: Original Milk Tea, Extra Pearls



Tang Rao stared at Ye Xiaobai, surprised that the punk actually wanted to take off.

"Xiao Bai, don't you think what you're doing is a bit unfair?" Tang Rao's face slightly changed, his expression hinting at a threat.

Ye Xiaobai knew he was being a coward, but he really didn't want to play along with Tang Rao anymore.

Because the longer he spent with Tang Rao, the deeper he would get dragged in.

Tang Rao was no good.

When things really go south, there would be nowhere to cry.

"Anyway, I just don't want to work with you anymore, let's just call it quits!" Ye Xiaobai raised his voice, perhaps just to cover up his inner cowardice.

"You covered for me even when I killed someone, don't you think what you're doing now is a bit too much!" Tang Rao pursed his lips and said.

What?

Ye Xiaobai glared at Tang Rao, what do you mean you covered for me when I killed someone?

When the hell did I kill anyone? The four guys sent by Lu He were killed by you, damn it.

"I also have a video of you killing Lu Dingjia! Let me tell you, Tang Rao, that's even more direct!" Ye Xiaobai shouted.

"Fine, how about this, let's play a game against each other. Who knows, maybe when we end up in prison, we might even become cellmates." Tang Rao said nonchalantly.

In times like this, it all came down to who dared to go further.

Clearly, Ye Xiaobai chickened out, inhaling sharply, saying nothing.

Probably sulking.

But whoever it was, would probably be angry too.

Tang Rao's actions might seem clever to outsiders, but for Ye Xiaobai, the direct victim, it was extremely unbearable.

"Don't worry, I'm a man who stands by his words, from now on, I won't let you down." Tang Rao wasn't necessarily forcing Ye Xiaobai to help, he just thought this guy was really fun to tease.

It's rare to meet someone interesting in life.

Ye Xiaobai took a few deep breaths, there was nothing he could do.

He was completely at Tang Rao's mercy.

"But let's get this straight, just this once. Whether you take care of the Lu Family or the Lu Family takes care of you, after this we're through." Ye Xiaobai stated, laying down his final line.

"Okay!" Tang Rao agreed briskly, "By the way, do you like milk tea? My treat!" Tang Rao pointed to a milk tea shop nearby and asked.

Ye Xiaobai: "…"

He really couldn't resist milk tea.

"Original milk tea, extra pearls." Ye Xiaobai ordered.

"Got it."

After a 'two-day tour' in the detention center, Tang Rao and Ye Xiaobai finally reached a consensus, establishing a thin layer of trust.

As for Lu He, he was still in Sui City and had not returned to Tiandu.

He was extremely pissed, so much so that he was nearly bursting with rage.

"Those four idiots, good-for-nothing and mess-things-up!" Lu He muttered under his breath, the Four Saints were indeed hired by him. He thought that even if these four guys couldn't finish off Tang Rao, at least they could stir up some trouble for him.

Even if Tang Rao killed them in public, he could make a big deal out of the murder.

But, these four dumbasses just died silently, in the detention room of the police station.

What's even more infuriating is that he couldn't find any trace of how these four were killed.

It's as if they all just dropped dead at the same time.

"What kind of crap is the Dark Net!" Lu He had a big prejudice against the so-called Dark Net.

He spent a total of a hundred million to become a VIP member of the Dark Net, but their service and capabilities made Lu He feel it was a loss.

"Mr. Lu seems very dissatisfied with our Dark Net." Suddenly, a subtle voice sounded behind Lu He.

Lu He leaped up from the sofa, jumped forward two steps, and turned around to stare intensely at the person behind him.

His face was full of shock.

He hadn't noticed anything at all.

If the other party wanted to kill him, they might have succeeded just now.

"Who are you?" Lu He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp.

"The humble servant's code name is Qing Chuan, responsible for the Dark Net in Yan country. Considering you are our VIP customer, I, Qing Chuan, am prepared to personally solve your problem," the woman said with a smile.

The woman wore a silver mask on her face, hiding her features.

However, her figure was extremely slender, around 175cm tall. Moreover, not only were her legs long, but her chest was also quite impressive.

"Frankly speaking, your service is poor," Lu He watched Qing Chuan, his eyes flickering with an unusual brilliance.

"Please forgive us, after all, in our line of work, failures are always a possibility," Qing Chuan's voice was pleasant, crisp, indicating she was not very old, probably at most in her mid-twenties.

"If you fail, does that mean you don't need to take responsibility?" Lu He snorted.

"The responsibility for failure is death; the Four Saints have already paid the price for their failures. Mr. Lu, do you have any other complaints?" Qing Chuan inquired.

"My complaint is, since you are the in-charge of the Dark Net in Yan country, you surely owe me some compensation for your subordinates' mistakes, right?" Lu He leaned on the table, staring at Qing Chuan, a smile lingering on his face.

"Do you want me to sleep with you?" Qing Chuan asked.

"Just compensation," Lu He smirked, this woman, sharp indeed.

He, Lu He, liked mysterious women, and since Qing Chuan could appear behind him silently, her strength was impressive; conquering such a woman was what a man should do.

"Whoosh!" Qing Chuan instantly flashed, moving very quickly, and Lu He could barely react.

"Mr. Lu, Qing Chuan's man needs to be more formidable than Qing Chuan. Clearly, you do not qualify," a cold dagger touched Lu He's neck, just a slight pull would open his windpipe.

One could imagine the shock in Lu He's heart at that moment.

He thought that Qing Chuan was able to stand behind him so easily just because he was distracted.

But now, clearly, Qing Chuan's strength was far superior to his own.

"Mr. Lu, good-bye. After the mission is complete, I will come to settle the final payment with you," Qing Chuan whispered in Lu He's ear before slowly backing away and leaving the room.

...

"Wow, there are so many people here," Tang Rao walked around Sui City Antiques Market, stopping here and there, looking around.

As for Ye Xiaobai, the guy had gone back, saying he needed to rest quietly for a couple of days after the huge shock.

What a wimp, even though he had once conned me, Tang Laohei.

"Baofeng Pavilion!" Halfway through, Tang Rao saw an ancient pavilion-style building.

It was a three-story building, quite imposing in appearance.

A sign hung at the entrance, three golden characters: Baofeng Pavilion.

He had promised Jiang Nuanqiu he would come, but unfortunately, he was detained yesterday and really couldn't make it.

Today, he came mainly to see if there were any good items, and of course, to apologize to Jiang Nuanqiu.

After all, he, Tang Rao, had broken his promise.

Walking into Baofeng Pavilion, there were indeed many people inside, adults and children, men and women. Most were there to look around, probably few were serious buyers.

"Good day, sir. How may I assist you?" Soon, a girl dressed in traditional clothing approached and respectfully greeted Tang Rao with a bow.
