152: Chapter 152: Two Million 152: Chapter 152: Two Million Bestie?
Tch, big deal being besties!
Bai Xiaofan scoffed dismissively and followed the two women inside.
The trio took the elevator directly to the top floor.
By then, many people were already seated there.
Instead of joining Su Shiqi and the others, Bai Xiaofan found a spot with an unobstructed view and casually sat down.
It’s you, dude, let’s discuss something!”
Bai Xiaofan had just sat down when someone leaned in close and whispered to him.
He glanced back and found him damn familiar, but couldn’t recall who he was.
“Cough cough, I’m Huang Caiqian.
From the auction last time, I was the one wanting to buy medicine from you!” Huang Caiqian, realizing Bai Xiaofan might not remember him, kindly reminded him.
“Oh oh, Brother Caiqian, hello, hello…
Huang Caiqian hastily stopped Bai Xiaofan mid-sentence then scanned the area to find no one paying attention to them, and with a smiling face said, “Dude, that medicine you sold last time, do you have any more?”
Bai Xiaofan almost laughed out loud.
So this guy wanted to buy medicine, making it all secretive, and here he was thinking he was up to something else.
“Dude, I’m willing to pay this much for one pill!” Seeing Bai Xiaofan hesitate, Huang Caiqian held up a finger.
“Two million, two million is all I’ve got, and I wouldn’t even want to spend that two million!”
Seeing Bai Xiaofan still not responding immediately, Huang Caiqian mistakenly thought Bai Xiaofan found two million too little and bit his teeth, adding another million.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Huang Caiqian realized Bai Xiaofan still hadn’t responded and was almost on the verge of tears.
He truly had no money left, just the last half million.
“Dude, two and a half million, that’s really all the money I’ve got!”
“Brother Caiqian, what are you talking about?
Besides, I find you quite worthy of friendship, so I’ll give you an extra pill for free, two pills in total will definitely have you bouncing back!”
Bai Xiaofan shifted his gaze back to Huang Caiqian, looked at him sincerely, and heartily patted his shoulder, looking every bit the great brother.
Hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words, Huang Caiqian was almost moved to tears.
Damn, what a good man he was.
“Here’s my phone number.
Call me tomorrow evening and I’ll have it ready for you!” During their conversation, Bai Xiaofan took out the business card Jiang Feifei had made for him, containing only his name and phone number.
According to Jiang Feifei, a man should carry a business card outside, but it shouldn’t be too ostentatious—just a simple name and phone number would suffice.
“Brother Bai, from now on, you’re my real brother.
Here’s a card with exactly two million, I’ll give it to you right now!” Huang Caiqian glanced at the business card, finally remembering that the man in front of him was Bai Xiaofan.
“No need, you can pay me when I give you the Spiritual Medicine tomorrow!” Bai Xiaofan waved his hand, “By the way, I’ve got something to handle now, we’ll talk later!”
He hadn’t finished speaking before he had already walked away, maneuvering through the bustling crowd to the restroom.
“Let’s confirm again, the target will appear shortly, and while everyone…”
Just as they were talking inside the restroom, Bai Xiaofan pushed the door and walked in.
Immediately, Puro and several foreigners acted as if nothing was out of the ordinary.
Puro and the others glanced at Bai Xiaofan, shook their heads, and left.
During his conversation with Huang Caiqian, Bai Xiaofan had noticed the actions of Puro and others, which is why he seemed distracted.
After following them to the restroom, it was finally confirmed how many people were involved.
There was one more than what Bai Hu had reported—a man of Asian descent with a fierce look in his eyes.
Moreover, for some reason, before leaving, the man exchanged glances with Bai Xiaofan.
Bai Xiaofan’s intuition told him that this man recognized him and the look in his eyes even held a hint of murderous intent.
Just walking out of the restroom, Bai Xiaofan ran into Vermilion Bird, who was also heading to the restroom.
Shrugging nonchalantly, Bai Xiaofan planned to head back to his seat, as keeping an eye on Puro was the priority.
But a faint sound emanated from the women’s restroom.
In such a place, a little noise was normal, yet Bai Xiaofan heard the sound of a silenced pistol.
Without a second thought, Bai Xiaofan dashed into the women’s restroom and immediately saw Vermilion Bird shot in the left shoulder and a woman in black standing in front of her, gun in hand.
The woman also noticed Bai Xiaofan, turned around, and was ready to drop a ‘peanut’ on him too.
But how could Bai Xiaofan let her succeed?
Before she could even pull the trigger, Bai Xiaofan had already flicked his hand, sending a Jade Talisman flashing with cold light flying out, striking the woman directly in the throat.
The woman in black collapsed to the ground, dead.
She could never have imagined that one day, she, armed with a gun, would die at the hands of a man who seemed utterly ordinary.
“How could you be so careless to get ambushed by such trash?”
Bai Xiaofan quickly reached Vermilion Bird and, looking at the still-bleeding wound, spoke reproachfully.
She’s the thirty-third ranked assassin on the Killer List, and she loves using guns to kill.
In all her years, she’s never misfired!”
Vermilion Bird managed to stand up with Bai Xiaofan’s help, and walked over to the body of the woman in black to provide some context.
“Tch, what good does being so tough do if she still gets killed by one move from me?” Bai Xiaofan retorted disdainfully.
Vermilion Bird wanted to argue back, but found no grounds to refute because what Bai Xiaofan said was indeed the truth.
