Chapter 725: Jealousy
When mentioning the ’Wolf Fang Mercenaries,’ Lin Tian’s fist was already clenched, and his face turned gloomy.
Wolf Fang Mercenaries!
They’re the mercenary group that caused chaos back then and killed Ye Feng, stealing three national treasures.
Although Lin Tian and Chen Moxiang haven’t talked about this incident since then, it’s certain that they both hold this grudge.
Unfortunately, even Chen Moxiang can hardly obtain much information about them.
This is still what Lin Tian gathered from the Xu Family’s intelligence network and the Security Management Institute’s intelligence network.
"Anything else?" Xu Ning’an asked.
Lin Tian shook his head, "No, this Wolf Fang Mercenaries are mainly active abroad, little of their activities reach the Celestial Dragon Continent. To have found this much is already my limit."
Xu Haohai turned around, not wanting Xu Ning’an to see his face filled with murderous intent.
Although Xu Haohai is the head of the land division in Mingzhu, with great power, the Wolf Fang Mercenaries are ultimately foreign forces, beyond his reach.
Can’t even see a shadow of them, how can one talk about revenge?
Even if revenge is possible, his men, no matter how skilled, can’t be a match for those hardened warriors, can they?
Suddenly, an idea sprung into Xu Haohai’s mind. So what if they’re abroad? If they don’t come over, he can still go to them, can’t he?
Xu Haohai thought clearly. This vendetta must be avenged, whether for his deceased wife or his daughter!
He’s conquered Mingzhu, why fear a mere foreign mercenary group?
Xu Ning’an leaned against the headboard, tilting her head to gaze at the sky, an idea quietly emerged in her mind.
Knock, knock, knock...
Suddenly, someone knocked on the room door. Xu Haohai stepped forward to open the door, looking up, he found a beauty dressed in black leather jacket and pants standing in front of him.
Her long hair was thoroughly black, her figure was curvaceous, full of wild beauty.
"It’s you!" Xu Haohai looked at the beauty in front of him, asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"
The woman before him, Xu Haohai had seen her profile. Mei Ruyan, Bai Shishi’s right-hand woman, a figure like this naturally caught Xu Haohai’s attention.
Seeing her here, his first thought was whether there might be some misunderstanding during Xu Ning’an’s time as a police officer.
Mei Ruyan’s beautiful brows furrowed instantly, she just gave Xu Haohai a cold glance, ignored him and walked into the room.
Her character is just like this, cold towards men like an ice block.
Xu Haohai’s expression grew gloomier, he started to move directly, both hands forming claws, reaching for Mei Ruyan’s arm.
Mei Ruyan quickly dodged to the side, and a fist shot out.
Though Mei Ruyan belonged to Ancient Martial the Xu Family, she didn’t know any martial arts. Her current skills were honed from fighting since childhood, straightforward and unformed, yet extremely destructive.
Seeing the two start fighting, Lin Tian’s figure floated ghost-like between them, drawing circles with his left hand, and twisting his right wrist.
He easily neutralized both their attacks with a ’Four Liang Pushing a Thousand Jin’ technique.
But both these individuals were hot-tempered, Lin Tian couldn’t persuade them, and they were about to start again.
Seeing this, Lin Tian hurriedly wrapped his arm around Mei Ruyan’s waist, and with a toe-point, moved her a large distance away.
"Scoundrel! Let go of me!" Mei Ruyan cursed, and directly broke free of Lin Tian’s hands.
Lin Tian found it amusing, didn’t he just hold your waist for a moment, does that make him a scoundrel?
Mei Ruyan certainly wasn’t one to take losses; she raised her fist, ready to charge at Xu Haohai for a fight, but before she could rush out, Lin Tian held her back.
"What are you doing? He just attacked me, didn’t you see? Whose side are you on?" Mei Ruyan asked, turning her head to confront him.
Honestly, Lin Tian was still bewildered. He hadn’t reacted to how Mei Ruyan suddenly appeared here and even started fighting Xu Haohai.
"Stop fighting, we’re all on the same side." Lin Tian quickly changed the topic, saying, "What are you here for?"
"You still dare to ask what I’m here for? Of course, I came to find you. Did you forget what you promised Xu Miaoxiu?" Mei Ruyan asked indifferently.
Lin Tian raised his eyebrows, immediately understanding.
In a few days, the time for the family auction will start, that time is perfect to steal the medicine.
Because of the Miaoxiu family’s nature, which has an enchanting effect, many people will cooperate with Lin Tian’s action at that time, so before that, they need to familiarize with each other.
Mei Ruyan’s cold gaze fell on Xu Haohai’s face, then her eyes glanced at Xu Ning’an sitting at the side. She then directly grabbed Lin Tian’s hand, pulling him, while saying, "Come on, Xu Miaoxiu is still waiting for us."
"Hey, what’s the rush, I haven’t finished talking."
Mei Ruyan turned, looking at Xu Haohai, said coldly, "If you want to keep flirting, I’ll wait for you for a while. Just enough time to finish the fight from before."
With that, her knuckles made a ’crackling’ sound.
"I’ve got nothing to say, let’s go..."
A black convertible sped quickly along the highway.
This black convertible was much more stylish than Lin Tian’s Porsche; the exaggerated, handsome lines, and the ’vroom vroom’ sound of the engine were incomparable.
Lin Tian flicked his windswept hair and asked loudly, "Your car must be expensive, right?"
"Over eight million." Mei Ruyan replied coldly.
"That expensive... makes me feel like a kept man."
"You’re not."
"You also think I look like a rich and handsome guy, right?"
"Like a well-dressed scoundrel, always attracting attention. Like that little police officer just now. Compared to a kept man, you seem more like a playboy radish."
"..."
Lin Tian knew Mei Ruyan misunderstood something, "You’re mistaken, I’m just treating her illness, not flirting."
"Same difference, once the illness is cured, that police officer might offer herself, right?" Mei Ruyan mocked.
"If you say that, what doctor would dare treat the opposite sex in the future?"
"And what about Xu Miaoxiu, that seductress? You’re helping her, her looks and figure must be a significant part of it, right? Why are there always so many seductresses around you?"
Lin Tian propped his chin with one hand, smiling, "I feel like you’re getting jealous."
Mei Ruyan focused ahead, replied blandly, "Mm, I am jealous."
"What?" Lin Tian rubbed his ears hard, afraid he heard wrong.
"A bit jealous, feeling sour inside."
Mei Ruyan’s character was just like this. Reserved yet straightforward, she didn’t like to keep things inside.
However, such words, she had held back for a long time.
