Chapter 954: A Two-Million Deal
"Back when I was the young master, I thought face was important. Now, thinking about it, face is useless - money is better."
At this point, Liu Chan abruptly changed the topic, saying, "Alright, I won’t say much nonsense. I’m here to do a business deal with you."
Li Li gave him a disdainful look, as if she was looking at a fool.
"This is very simple for you and you can get revenge. Once it’s done, you’ll get this amount." As he spoke, Liu Chan held up two fingers and shook them smugly.
"Two hundred thousand?"
"Add another zero to that. Are you in?"
Liu Chan knew Li Li too well. This woman only had eyes for money; as long as you give her money, she’ll do anything.
"I’m in!"
Sure enough, just as Liu Chan expected, Li Li nodded almost without hesitation.
"Haha, you really haven’t changed." After a couple of laughs, Liu Chan took out a box the size of a ring box from his pocket. Upon opening it, inside were three small glass fragments the size of a fingernail.
Li Li craned her neck in curiosity to take a look, "What are these?"
"Don’t worry about what they are. You just need to place one of these on Lin Tian, and your task will be complete."
Li Li was slightly stunned, "That simple?"
"That simple."
"And then you’ll give me two million?"
Liu Mang took out a card and handed it to Li Li. He said, "There’s a million in here. Take it first, and the other million will be transferred after the job is done. The password is your birthday... You’ve been with me long enough, you know how I work. If you try any tricks, you can imagine the consequences."
Li Li looked at the card on the table, hesitated for two seconds, and finally asked, "I still want to know what these glass pieces do."
Liu Mang stared at her, thought for a while, and then said, "Seeing how you agreed so readily just now, it wouldn’t hurt to tell you. These glass pieces have some powder embedded in them, colorless and odorless, but they evaporate into the air. We ordinary people won’t be affected, but there’s one person who will die quickly upon inhaling it."
"Who is that person? Why will they die just by inhaling it?"
"I can’t tell you too much detail about that. Just remember what I said."
Li Li nodded, then picked up the card and the box from the table, and said, "I understand."
"Hahaha, so decisive. It seems you really do hate that guy."
Laughing, Liu Mang suddenly stopped because he realized Li Li was tilting her head, looking at him. Her gaze, terrifying like a vengeful spirit.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" Liu Mang wondered if it was the red wine on him or Li Li’s eyes, but he began to feel cold.
"Actually, I hate you more," Li Li hissed through her teeth.
"You really are ungrateful. All I did was sleep with you before, how much did I give you? Don’t you know? Now I’m giving you money again, and you actually hate me," Liu Mang chuckled bitterly and shook his head, "Women really are hard to understand."
After saying this, Liu Mang stood up from the bar stool, waved his hand, and walked straight out of the bar.
That night, Li Li took a leave from the bar’s manager and returned to her dorm. She sat alone on her bed against the wall, staring at the two bank cards and the three ’glass fragments’ in front of her. She was lost in thought for the whole night.
...
These past two days, Zhao Xuefeng and the others were frequently gathering to discuss Jin Guard’s illness.
Especially Zhao; despite his age, he was more dedicated when encountering a difficult illness.
People like Lin Tian, who enjoyed taking time off, never joined them, making some random excuses to decline each time.
These past few days, he stayed at home, picking up his long-abandoned training. Life was relatively leisurely.
On the afternoon of the third day, Hua Dongxu called Lin Tian, saying that the Clear Wind Evil Qi Elixir was very effective, and most of the toxins in Jin Guard’s body had been cleared.
However, due to the poor quality of the Clear Wind Evil Qi Elixir, it had already completely dissolved.
This was unexpected for Lin Tian. It dissolved too quickly, but it’s good that it could still clear some, at least making the illness less troublesome.
Also, tomorrow morning Lin Tian had to go to the hotel to retrieve the rest of the bullets.
At half-past five, just thirty minutes before dinner, suddenly Lin Tian’s phone rang again.
Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, he still answered: "Hello, who’s this?"
"Woo-woo~~~ Lin Tian, it’s me..."
A sobbing sound came from the phone, heart-wrenching cries that were hard to listen to.
Lin Tian immediately recognized the voice; it was Li Li’s.
"If you have something to say, say it. Stop crying!" Lin Tian’s tone intensified. Not only did it have no effect, but Li Li cried even harder.
"I want to drink now, can you come out and drink with me a little, woo woo..."
Lin Tian replied disdainfully, "I think you’re already drunk. If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up."
Lin Tian disliked girls who cried a lot, especially those he didn’t have a good impression of.
"Don’t hang up, don’t hang up, it’s important!"
"Speak!"
"Do you remember a few days ago, you beat me up and then brought me to this bar, humiliated me, and made me a waitress?"
Lin Tian was stunned. Did he hit her? It seemed not. Besides, wasn’t it Wu Yong who he asked to take her to work?
This crazy woman must be really drunk. How could she just spout nonsense?
Just as Lin Tian was about to ask something, Li Li started crying and shouting again, "I’m not happy at all there! People bully me all the time! Come out, and help me change my job."
"Crazy!"
"You’re still scolding me? Woo woo woo, I don’t want to live anymore. If you don’t come, I’ll just die here today. And I’ll write a suicide note to let the whole world know it was you who pushed me to death! And Liu Chan will avenge me!"
Lin Tian was confused, feeling like she was talking nonsense, but the tone didn’t sound drunk or random.
Something was wrong!
Lin Tian asked, "Where are you now? I’ll come find you."
"Magic Words Bar."
"I’ll come over right away."
After Li Li hung up, Liu Chan laughed, "He fell for it? That kid is really stupid."
Li Li remained expressionless, indifferent.
"When he comes, don’t play any tricks. Make sure to put the fragment in his pocket!"
Li Li glanced at Liu Chan with disdain, coldly saying, "What trick could I play? Do you think I’d go against two million?"
"You do have a point," Liu Chan laughed and said, "You are a real gold-digger. In the past, a bag worth twenty thousand would make you do anything. Hahaha."
