Chapter 619: Chapter 619 You Can Try
Qiu Zhen’s hardline stance was unexpected to Jiang Xiaobai.
Generally, in such a situation, the business firm would undoubtedly side with people like Gu Yulin. Are they actually on his side now?
Interesting!
Gu Yulin was momentarily confused after hearing Qiu Zhen’s words.
She looked at Qiu Zhen in disbelief.
“What do you mean!”
“What do I mean, does Miss Gu not understand?”
Qiu Zhen’s face was livid: “Drop the matter. If I ever learn that you dare to give him trouble afterwards, I’ll definitely have a word with your father about this.”
His words caused a shock among the crowd!
No one could believe Qiu Zhen would side like this with Jiang Xiaobai. Did these two know each other?
In fact, he wasn’t supporting Jiang Xiaobai, but protecting the dignity of the Wind and Rain Business Firm!
Moreover, Wind and Rain Business Firm were really not afraid of the Gu Family!
The Gu Family was merely the owner of a small city like Bright Moon City, but the Wind and Rain Business Firm had influence in many areas far beyond what the Gu Family could compare.
For a time, Gu Yulin was gritting her teeth in fury, but she was helpless!
She was well aware of the rules of the Wind and Rain Business Firm, and knew her family could not possibly be a match for them.
Originally, she just wanted to use her power to bully others and enjoy the feeling of having control over others’ lives.
But she was startled that Qiu Zhen had shown her no respect.
If she backed down today, wouldn’t she lose face?
After thinking about it, Gu Yulin gritted her teeth and said, “I don’t care, I have set my eyes on this item!”
“Can’t I buy it?”
“That’s your business.”
Qiu Zhen snorted coldly.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai spoke up, “You can buy it. One million mid-grade immortal stones, otherwise I won’t sell.”
This made Gu Yulin explode with anger. She pointed at Jiang Xiaobai, her face monstrous.
“You damn thing, are you seeking death?”
“Take the face you’re given, don’t reject it when I’m being nice to you!”
Gu Yulin was furiously mad. She had never been humiliated like this.
However, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t pay any attention to her. He narrowed his eyes slightly, unleashing a cold and intimidating glare.
“You can try.”
The cold, murderous intent in Jiang Xiaobai’s voice spread out, frightening those nearby.
The black snake next to him suddenly felt short of breath!
This shocked him for a moment!
Not only him, but Gu Yulin also felt a chill in her heart, enveloped by such a terrifying killing intent, like being engulfed by boundless cold sea water.
Even Qiu Zhen frowned.
“Enough, let this matter go!”
Qiu Zhen suddenly snorted coldly.
From then on, Gu Yulin didn’t dare say another word to Jiang Xiaobai. She felt a sudden sensation that she could be killed by the man in front of her at any moment.
Jiang Xiaobai gave a wicked smile, his mouth curving into a smirk.
But then he paused.
“Hiss, what’s going on, why do I have a sense of déjà vu with a major villain?”
Jiang Xiaobai was a bit dumbfounded by his own behavior.
He didn’t know what was happening to him.
Just now, he just didn’t want to waste any more time with her, and he didn’t want to involve others because of his temper.
He had already dragged too many people into his problems.
But he never expected that he would have such a feeling just now.
“That’s strange.”
“Forget it, don’t mind him.”
Muttering in his heart, Jiang Xiaobai turned to look at Black Snake, putting on his previous clueless look again.
“Let’s go, time to head back.”
“Oh…”
Black Snake murmured, finally snapping out of her shock.
The two of them slowly left the Wind and Rain Business Firm without anyone stopping them. Gu Yulin didn’t even glance at them.
Qiu Zhen just gave them a cold glance, then turned his gaze to Gu Yulin.
“You can be arrogant anywhere else in this city, but not here, not in front of me!”
He chuckled, turned around and left.
Leaving Gu Yulin standing there alone. No one could know under the veil, her face had twisted into ferocity!
…
On their way back to the Long Wind Escort Agency, Black Snake remained silent and didn’t dare to clutch Jiang Xiaobai’s arm like she did before.
She didn’t know why, but suddenly she felt that Jiang Xiaobai possessed a terrifying aura.
She had never seen such a aura on anyone before.
It seemed like Jiang Xiaobai could control her life and death with one thought.
This feeling was like encountering an unparalleled emperor, that majesty, that murderous air, suffocating.
“What’s wrong? Did I cause some trouble just now?” Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.
“Huh?”
Awakened by his voice, Black Snake quickly looked up.
Her head was still buzzing.
“Will there be any trouble?”
“It’s fine. With Qiu Zhen stepping in, there should be no problem. Even if there is trouble, we can leave.”
Black Snake shrugged, returning to her previous attitude: “Actually, I’ve been wanting to leave this place for a long time, and so has the boss. The Gu Family has really crossed the line.”
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this for now, we can discuss it when we get back.”
After saying that, Black Snake hurriedly hustled Jiang Xiaobai back to their base. As soon as they entered, they saw a lean figure with his back towards them.
His hair was tied in dreadlocks, long enough to nearly reach the ground.
The color of his hair was an eye-catching blue.
“Back already? Come over here, Jiang Bai, let me introduce you to, the real powerhouse of our Long Wind Escort Agency.”
“ShuYu, say hi.”
As White Cat’s voice fell, Huo ShuYu turned around, revealing a doll-like face.
Her expression was indifferent and distant, but her beauty was breathtaking.
She nodded at Jiang Xiaobai as a way of greeting.
“Just in time for your return. Redhead has got the goods ready. Tomorrow, we have a big job to do!”
White Cat signaled them to take a seat. Then, the rest of the Long Wind Escort Agency people came in.
Redhead had someone serve the food and wine.
Black Snake recounted the events of the day, and everyone fell silent.
“Uh… If it’s because I caused trouble, it’s alright, I can go now and clear things up.” Jiang Xiaobai said with a light smile.
He felt that he was indeed a trouble magnet, causing unrest wherever he went. Maybe it was really time for him to leave.
But White Cat shook his head.
“No harm done. With Qiu Zhen’s help, this matter should be fine. But this may be the last straw.”
“The Gu Family has crossed the line. They are too arrogant in Bright Moon City.”
“We had thought about leaving Bright Moon City long ago and have already secretly contacted a backer. We were just reluctant to give up the business we’ve built here over the years.”
White Cat sighed.
Redhead comforted him from the side: “It’s okay, we can’t always stay in this small city, how else can we expand?”
“Eventually, we have to leave, and this might be a perfect opportunity. Jiang Bai, you don’t need to blame yourself too much. It’s just the Gu family being like this!”
“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Once we finish our job tomorrow, let’s leave!”
Redhead laughed, raised his glass, and took a hefty drink!
