Capítulo 1269: Chapter 1262: Crisis Erges
Holder’s eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness upon hearing Shankou Hongyi’s words, and he said with a sneer, “No need for you to worry, Mr. Shankou. You should pay more attention to yourself when you have ti.”
“This doesn’t require the Saint Heir’s reminder; of course, I’ll take care of myself. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. I’ll co over before the action begins.”
Shankou Hongyi coldly smiled, said nothing else, stood up directly, turned, and walked towards the outside.
After Shankou Hongyi left, the others stood up one after another and took their leave from Holder. In a short ti, the originally empty eting room beca even more desolate, leaving only Holder sitting in his place.
“Saint Heir, did you need ?”
After an unknown period, an elderly man dressed in priest’s robes, with a cross around his neck and holding a Bible, walked in from outside.
“Bishop Billy, you’re here.”
Holder snapped back from his thoughts, and with a grim voice said, “I need you to do sothing for . After this operation to assassinate the Judge, you must secretly intercept Shankou Hongyi and slaughter all of Shankou Family’s people.”
“But…”
“There’s no ‘but’, Shankou Hongyi must die, and the Shankou Family must be annihilated.”
Holder rudely interrupted the elderly white man’s words. The murderous intent in his voice was obvious. Shankou Hongyi’s previous words fully provoked his killing intent. This ti, he would not allow Shankou Hongyi to return alive to Japan.
Seeing Holder’s grim expression, the elderly white man eventually nodded: “Yes, I will make the arrangents, ensuring Shankou Hongyi will not leave New York alive.”
“Then go make the arrangents!”
Hearing these words, a fierce look flashed in Holder’s eyes. He waved the elderly white man out, stood up from the chair, and walked to the building’s edge floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the busy streets below, his eyes filled with a bloody killing intent. This ti he would make sure Lu Tianxing had no place to bury himself and would make Bai Zhiqing, who ignored him, kneel like a bitch before him and beg.
Lu Tianxing was seemingly unaware that soone wanted to harm him, accompanying Bai Zhiqing at the exhibition center, packing things up and preparing to wrap up the exhibition.
At that mont, the Western beauty Li Ya walked over to Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing: “Zhiqing, congratulations on becoming the biggest winner of this jewelry exhibition.”
Upon hearing Li Ya’s words, Bai Zhiqing put down her things, went over, and gave Li Ya a firm hug: “Li Ya, don’t tease . If it weren’t for you, Bai’s jewelry company wouldn’t even have had the chance to participate in this exhibition. You are the true hero.”
“Haha, Zhiqing, don’t be modest. If you didn’t have the capability, even with my help, it wouldn’t have made any difference. All these honors are truly yours.”
Li Ya smiled gently, and her gaze subtly swept past Lu Tianxing before saying to Bai Zhiqing: “Zhiqing, now that the exhibition is over, are you planning to leave New York?”
“Yes.”
Bai Zhiqing gently nodded and said, “Tianxing and I plan to leave New York tomorrow or the day after. You know I’m the chairman of Bai’s Group, and there are many things to handle. I can’t stay here long.”
“Is that so.”
Upon hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, a hint of disappointnt flashed in Li Ya’s eyes, only to disappear as she smiled and said, “If that’s the case, why don’t you not return to the hotel tonight? Let host you for dinner.”
“You are too kind, Li Ya. You’ve helped greatly this ti. It should be treating you.”
Bai Zhiqing chuckled lightly, glanced at Lu Tianxing beside her, and said, “Lu Tianxing, what do you think?”
“No…”
Lu Tianxing was about to respond when he heard his phone’s lodious ringtone from his pocket. He took out the phone, glanced apologetically at Li Ya, and then checked the text ssage.
After seeing the content of the ssage clearly, Lu Tianxing’s pupils shrank, his eyes flashed with a cold killing intent, which vanished in a blink before anyone noticed, not even Li Ya, the Spiritual Ability User, sensed the fleeting bloodlust radiating from Lu Tianxing.
Casually putting the phone back in his pocket, Lu Tianxing’s carefree smirk appeared again as he looked at Bai Zhiqing and said, “By the way, sweetheart, you just said you wanted to treat Li Ya to dinner, right?”
“Yes, why? Are you not going?”
Bai Zhiqing asked, looking puzzled at Lu Tianxing.
Lu Tianxing shook his head and said, “Not at all, but Mi Feng just texted , saying several of my brothers are here in New York and want to et you. How about we treat Miss Li Ya another ti, as we might not leave tomorrow after all.”
“This…”
Bai Zhiqing hesitated briefly, seed to have realized sothing, and nodded, looking apologetically at Li Ya: “Li Ya, I’m sorry, but it seems we can’t treat you to dinner tonight.”
“It’s okay; tomorrow or the day after is fine.”
Li Ya shook her head and said no more.
“Sweetheart, it’s getting late; let’s go find Little Mifeng now!” Lu Tianxing softly said to Bai Zhiqing.
After hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing imdiately looked at Li Ya beside her and said, “Li Ya, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”
“Zhiqing, you’re not staying until the exhibition is completely wrapped up? There will be stars performing later, all top Hollywood celebrities. Won’t you stay and enjoy?”
“No, I’m not much into fandom.” Bai Zhiqing shook her head and said.
Upon hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Li Ya’s face showed a bit of disappointnt: “Okay then, Zhiqing, if you’re really busy, go ahead. By the way, should I send a driver to escort you? I’ve heard things aren’t peaceful in New York lately.”
“No need, the reminder will protect .”
“Alright, we’ll keep in touch when we have the ti.”
“Okay.”
After Bai Zhiqing exchanged a few words with Li Ya, she called over Bai’s jewelry company manager Li Lan to have her handle all matters here before turning and walking out with Lu Tianxing.
Leaving the jewelry exhibition and getting back in the car, Bai Zhiqing couldn’t hold back her doubts and looked at Lu Tianxing: “Lu Tianxing, what exactly happened? Why are we leaving in such a hurry; are those people looking to harm you?”
Lu Tianxing started the car and drove down the road, explaining, “Little Bee just texted earlier saying those planning to harm will likely make a move today. I’m worried they might hide among the crowd at the exhibition, so I chose to leave early. Besides, that group is crazy and might recklessly act at the exhibition. With such a chaotic crowd, it’s hard to protect you, so it’s better to leave first.”
