Xiu Ju's beautiful eyes were wide open, as she stood frozen in place, her brain a blank as she felt the hot breath coming from Shen Qiang's body and the strong masculine scent of his hormones in the air, her palms trembling even more.
She was a Mixed Elent Realm powerhouse, and her lethal thread that killed nurous people was wrapped around Shen Qiang's neck.
With just a thought, all she needed was a slight exertion of her palm.
Shen Qiang's head would imdiately hit the ground.
But for so reason, at this mont, Xiu Ju not only did not want to kill Shen Qiang at all,
but even had an impulse to kiss him welling up in her heart.
"No, you can't do this, you are a good woman, you are not a hooligan!"
Bang!
She pushed Shen Qiang away.
The crimson-faced Xiu Ju looked at Shen Qiang, whom she had pushed away, flicked her wrist, and threw a brand new pink towel at him, gritting her teeth, "Go put on your clothes, and then we'll talk."
"I don't have underwear," Shen Qiang said calmly.
Xiu Ju took a deep breath and casually tossed a piece of hand-sewn underwear to Chen Qiang.
Then she turned away, not looking at Shen Qiang.
Seeing Xiu Ju, whose face was as red as blood and who had no idea what she was thinking, Shen Qiang quickly changed his clothes and then said naturally, "Pack up your things; we're changing hotels. We need the best room available, and if you don't like it, you can opt for two rooms."
Xiu Ju frowned, "What are you talking about? We've already booked our flight back to Provincial City."
Shen Qiang smiled and took the lead to step outside, saying, "Are you joking? No one plays and gets away without paying a price. I want Bianyi dead, and as long as he has a breath in him, I won't leave Shanghai. Of course, you can choose to give up the mission and leave."
After that, Shen Qiang didn't give Xiu Ju a second glance.
He turned and walked away.
Once in the hotel's underground parking lot, he flicked a business card in an instant and unhesitatingly took out his sports car from the Storage Ring, pressing a button to retract the roof.
Looking at Xiu Ju, Shen Qiang's face was cold.
"You have three seconds to get in the car."
Xiu Ju stubbornly looked away from Shen Qiang.
"3, 2."
Pressing the accelerator, the sports car shot out.
Seeing that Shen Qiang didn't even count to 1 and just drove off, Xiu Ju, angry, flashed, and jumped into the car, "Shen Qiang, you are such a jerk!"
Shen Qiang didn't pay her any heed.
He drove straight out of the underground parking lot and onto the street.
The afternoon sun and the hot wind that seed to scorch the face weren't as comfortable as one might imagine.
Twenty-five minutes later.
In the luxury room of the Half-Island Hotel.
Sitting on the sofa inside the balcony door, Shen Qiang, while looking at his phone, said, "If you really think what I'm doing is wrong, you can leave. If you want to stay, then drop the hypocrisy, and listen well. In your eyes, the current situation is nothing but Bianyi extorting ."
"But to , this is a battle for survival for and my family and friends, so I will use every ans to take down Bianyi. You can keep evidence and report to the Dragon Group in the future, or pretend you know nothing at all. But, Xiu Ju, let remind you, you can choose not to help, but don't you dare drag down. If I find out you're trying to ss up my plans, I won't be nice to you, even if you've saved my life before."
Sitting opposite Shen Qiang, Xiu Ju retorted with frustration, "Have you thought about the consequences?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "What consequence could be worse than not being able to survive?"
Xiu Ju was stunned.
Seeing her expression, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Additionally, there's another thing; apart from paying for the hotel fees, you'll also need to lend so money."
"You're so rich and you're borrowing from ?" Xiu Ju asked incredulously.
After a mont of silence, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Spent it all. I bought so Pei Yuan Pills, Bianyi extorted sixty million from , acquiring Dinghao took two hundred and fifty million, paying the bounty hunters platform's bounty was three hundred and eighty-one million one hundred and thirty thousand. Subtract various fees, and I have two thousand three hundred left in my card, and a little over a hundred in cash."
Xiu Ju helpless, "Impressive, you're out of money and you bring here to stay in a luxury river-view room."
"If I can't handle Bianyi, I might die very soon, so of course, I'm going to stay in the best place," Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow.
Xiu Ju, still helpless, "Alright, is a hundred thousand enough?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "Stop joking, are you kidding ? You're a Mixed Elent Realm powerhouse, and I'm borrowing money from you, how can you seriously say a hundred thousand? Besides, I have a few small tasks I want to set up, let's start with a loan of a billion."
Xiu Ju stared at Shen Qiang, dumbfounded, and after a whole five seconds of silence, she burst out, "Are you crazy? Do you think all cultivators are rich, big spenders? What kind of joke is this? All these years, I've been scrimping and saving, and I've barely managed to save over twenty million. If I weren't so determined, after seeing the task you posted, I'd have thought about going for a score!"
"A low-level job like cracking a safe, and you need a three-star hunter to do it? The bounty of ten million? A bounty of a million would be enough for a one-star hunter to do the job easily!"
Shen Qiang looked at the frantic Xiu Ju in surprise, "A one-star hunter won't do, Bianyi would get wind of it. Plus, without a substantial bounty, those three-star big shots won't take action casually."
"Five million is enough," Xiu Ju said, caught between laughter and tears, "Do you really think it's easy for cultivators to make money?"
Shen Qiang pursed his lips, "If you want the horse to run, you have to let the horse graze. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. I need to take everything from Bianyi in the shortest ti possible, understand? I can't give Bianyi any chance to react."
Xiu Ju, still helpless, "Don't you know anything about being frugal?"
"I am being frugal," Shen Qiang said seriously, "Bianyi has rented seventeen safes all over Huaxia. His extortion thods are sophisticated and practiced, clearly not his first ti doing this. And since he's insatiably greedy, doesn't invest in real estate, isn't lecherous, and you know what? A few days ago, at the antique market, I saw him riding a cheap brand electric bike."
"That ans he's likely a miser who only takes in and doesn't spend. So where has all his money gone?"
"Besides, you have to pay rent for a safe, and he's definitely not one to throw money at the banks for nothing. Therefore, it's very likely the seventeen safes contain a lot of the items he's extorted. Seventeen safes—if what's inside doesn't amount to one hundred and seventy million after I get them all, then it ans I've overestimated him, and I lose."
With so confusion, Xiu Ju said, "Even if you get your hands on Bianyi's safes, so what? You still have no way of getting to him, right?"
Shen Qiang smiled, "Do you know what the saddest thing is for a miser? It's when the wealth that he's worked so hard and used all ans to acquire disappears overnight."
