Chapter 518 – Seeking Death
“Hehe, since Mr. Sha is being so hospitable, I will reluctantly take a trip,” Xiao Shun smiled and nodded at Qin Yu’s enthusiastic invitation.
Even putting aside the matter with Persimmon Commercial for now, he was determined to obtain that jade carving containing spirit energy. So he had to go on this trip!
“Mr. Wang, don’t just stand there in a daze. About what happened just now…”
Xiao Shun looked at the burly men strewn across the ground grunting in pain, then his gaze fixed on Wang Fugui’s face with an amused smile.
Wang Fugui’s buttocks clenched as he let out an embarrassed laugh. “Hahaha, Wang Fugui didn’t recognize Mount Tai. I hope sir doesn’t hold it against me.”
With an apologetic smile, he discreetly offered Xiao Shun a piece of green jade.
This jade was emerald all over, seeming to contain a warm, smooth luster. One look and you could tell it was a top grade piece!
Retrieving his gaze, Xiao Shun patted Wang Fugui’s shoulder satisfiedly.
“Mr. Wang is so generous, I won’t stand on ceremony then.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the jade pendant was already in his hand.
Wang Fugui’s intestines were twisting with regret. This piece of jade was an heirloom passed down from his grandfather’s generation, and could almost be considered a family heirloom.
But there was no helping it. He had encountered a tough opponent today. Even Mr. Sha had enthusiastically invited this man, so who was he to provoke?
Oh well, just take it as spending money to avoid disaster!
Seeing Xiao Shun off with a pained expression, tears involuntarily streamed down Wang Fugui’s face.
The trip was silent as Xiao Shun’s group took a car to a sprawling estate in the suburbs.
“Tsk tsk, the evils of capitalism. This place could host horse races.” Xiao Shun couldn’t help but praise.
Seeing the magnificent and majestic gate before him, even as a wealthy man now, he had to admit it was better than his own place. Living amidst the hustle and bustle of the city yet achieving a sense of serenity and seclusion was truly commendable.
Qin Yu was naturally honored that this expert would evaluate his boss’s taste so highly. The corners of his mouth imperceptibly turned up.
At the same time, within the estate.
“Boss, the guests have arrived.”
A man in a butler’s uniform stood respectfully next to a middle-aged man, carefully reporting to him.
The middle-aged man had sharp, piercing eyes. His prominent eyebrows added to his sternness, giving the impression he was not to be trifled with.
Sha Hai, Chairman of Persimmon Commercial.
As an underground kingpin, he naturally carried an extraordinary bearing. With just a glance, the butler was struck dumb.
“Hmph, idiots seeking death!”
Sha Hai’s body shook as he slowly stood up from the study.
A while later, in the magnificent living room.
Sha Hai sat with one leg crossed over the other, casually smoking a cigar. The arrogant look on his face was obscured by the swirling smoke.
As for Xiao Shun sitting opposite him, he didn’t even glance at him.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Xiao Shun was unconcerned by this.
He swung his legs nonchalantly, his eyes full of amusement.
He had seen all kinds of grand occasions before, so this attempt at intimidation was nothing to him!
Besides Xiao Shun and Zhu Que, the other five people in the living room were Sha Hai’s subordinates.
An oppressive silence prevailed in the spacious living room, swirling back and forth between the walls before finally settling into Sha Hai’s heart.
Finally, it was Sha Hai who broke the meaningful silence.
“I heard Brother Xiao is also interested in this jade carving?”
Xiao Shun smiled and nodded, not offering any explanation.
Seeing this, Sha Hai casually flicked some ash off his cigar. “Your skills aren’t bad. Even Qin Yu is no match for you. Come work for me!”
Xiao Shun stroked his chin thoughtfully. He sneered inwardly: I haven’t made trouble for you yet and you’re already trying to recruit me?
Before Xiao Shun could respond, Sha Hai suddenly turned to look at the silent Zhu Que. His shameless gaze roamed over her delicate figure with aggression.
“And you, one million. Spend the night with me tonight!”
Gulp!
Xiao Shun swallowed hard, gaping at Sha Hai in shock.
At this time, Sha Hai’s eyes never left Zhu Que. He spoke flirtatiously, “Heh, I’ve played with quite a few foreign chicks before, but never gotten to know such an aloof thoroughbred in depth. I wonder if the young miss is still so sacred and untouchable in bed?”
God, have mercy on this beast!
Seeing Sha Hai sprinting down the path of seeking death, Xiao Shun prayed silently in his heart, hoping Zhu Que would go easy on him. If it came to loss of life, it would likely be hard to smooth over.
In a flash, a graceful figure moved like lightning, appearing before Sha Hai in an instant. The dark muzzle of a gun was pressed against his forehead.
Click!
Zhu Que disengaged the safety, her slender green onion-like index finger slowly pressing down on the trigger.
With just a light squeeze, the handsome head in front of her would surely explode!
At this moment, Sha Hai’s men reacted, whipping out their guns and training them on the impassive Zhu Que.
Even at one against five, the look on the girl’s face remained composed.
Zhu Que was fully confident she could blow Sha Hai’s dog head off before his men could fire.
As for what would happen after, it was beyond her considerations.
Staring at the sinister muzzles, Sha Hai retracted his hand that had been reaching for something under the sofa. He looked at the grinning Xiao Shun.
“Just who are you? What are your intentions in approaching me?”
Based on Zhu Que’s swiftness and the fact they were armed, he realized these two were surely no good.
As a prominent figure, Sha Hai had seen his share of storms. Even with a gun pointed at his forehead, he still forced himself to stay calm.
Meeting Sha Hai’s gaze, Xiao Shun smiled faintly. “Hehe, Mr. Sha’s question hits the mark.”
He paused briefly before solemnly continuing, “My demands are simple. First, relinquish that jade carving. Second, merge Persimmon Commercial into Pearl Commercial Chamber, otherwise what awaits you is only destruction!”
Hearing this, Sha Hai let out a cold snort. “Ridiculous. You think just your empty threats can make me…”
“Along with the gun pressed against your forehead!” Xiao Shun shrugged and added.
This addition was crucial!
