The place An Yiqing intended to visit was a stronghold of the Medicine Sect nearby.
Calling it a stronghold, it was actually a pharmacy.
Mainly, it was operated by Bai Wuchang to gather intelligence.
“We have a tail,” Gu Yelin glanced at the rearview mirror.
In addition to the staff’s cargo truck following them, there was an inconspicuous tail.
Through the mirror, An Yiqing saw it and smiled faintly, knowing the journey wouldn’t be smooth sailing.
With such a large piece of top-quality Emperor Green, it was no surprise others had the idea to make a crooked move.
“Take the back roads and head to a less crowded area to deal with them.”
Gu Yelin turned the steering wheel and took a secluded side road.
The cargo truck behind them hurried to keep up.
Boss Wang’s plan was to ambush and steal the jade halfway through.
His family had relatives involved in the underworld, so it was no problem to find some thugs.
Boss Wang secretly followed An Yiqing and Gu Yelin and was thrilled to see them going deeper into isolated territory.
Even the heavens seemed to assist him; this road was sparsely populated and without any cameras, meaning there was no worry about leaving evidence behind.
Boss Wang immediately ordered his driver to speed up and block the road ahead of An Yiqing and Gu Yelin’s car.
When Gu Yelin and An Yiqing saw Boss Wang exiting the vehicle, they understood what was happening.
Someone had reneged on their deal!
Boss Wang was actually somewhat worried.
He knew that these two individuals before him were either rich or nobility, especially the man with the handsome stature.
He had considered what to do if he offended a big shot, but with two billion in temptation, Boss Wang decided to take the risk.
“Boss Wang,” An Yiqing stepped out of the car with a smile, her eyes cold and mocking, “are you here because you’re worried that thieves might have their eyes on us?”
Boss Wang forced out a laugh—he understood the implication in An Yiqing’s words all too well.
Everyone knew who the “thief” was.
“Girl, the jade is rightfully mine.
I’m willing to pay you back the five million and you return the jade to me, how about it?” Boss Wang brazenly declared with conviction.
“Boss Wang, the deal was clear: payment for goods.
Since I purchased the raw stone, the jade that comes from it naturally belongs to me.
Surely, you can understand such a simple concept, can’t you?”
“Pah!
Girl, be careful not to bite off more than you can chew at such a young age.
I’ll give you six million; hand over the jade quickly!
Otherwise, don’t blame me for not being nice.” Boss Wang tore off his last shred of decency, threatening viciously.
“Not being nice?
I would like to see how you’re going to be not nice!” An Yiqing retorted, and before Boss Wang knew it, a delicate scent wafted through the air, and a dainty jade hand clutched his throat!
“Ah, ah, you…” Boss Wang’s face turned crimson, and his eyes, wide with horror, stared at the girl in front of him.
Was she even human?
When had she come over?
Seeing their boss in danger, the dozen or so thugs behind Boss Wang had no choice but to charge forward reluctantly.
They had no other option; Boss Wang was a relative of their own boss, and if they didn’t save him, they would be in deep trouble when they got back!
That’s when Gu Yelin made his move.
His already icy gaze grew sharper.
His figure was as agile as a cheetah, and the outline of the powerful explosive force hidden within his body, wrapped by his clothes, was faintly visible.
His defined muscular lines were enough to make any woman’s blood race.
There was no suspense; before the loafers could even react, Gu Yelin swiftly ended the battle, which lacked any suspense from the outset.
The two delivery workers sitting in the truck were stunned.
This man and woman were not only good-looking but also incredibly skilled!
Were they watching a martial arts film?
A dozen or so thugs lay on the ground groaning, but Boss Wang had no time to care about them.
His face, pinched by An Yiqing, had turned blue and purple, his eyes rolled back as he seemed on the verge of death.
Just then, An Yiqing let go, and with a “smack,” she violently threw Boss Wang to the ground.
Boss Wang regretted everything; he had never been in such close proximity to death.
The moment his throat was seized, he thought he saw a pair of black wings unfurl behind this seemingly innocent and clear-eyed girl.
This girl who appeared so simple and pure was actually a ruthless God of Slaughter!
Lying on the ground, he struggled to breathe fresh air, but he heard An Yiqing’s voice ring out: “Boss Wang, I’ve taken the jadeite.
If you’re not satisfied, come find me at Xuan University, and remember, my name is An Yiqing!”
My name is An Yiqing!
My name is An Yiqing!
My name is An Yiqing!
…
Long after An Yiqing and Gu Yelin had left, those words still echoed in the minds of the thugs.
They were stunned.
Was her name An Yiqing?
Was she really An Yiqing?!
Was she the same An Yiqing mentioned in the Muyun Society’s underworld orders?!
The thugs were nearly in tears, even their boss was in no position to help himself, and now that they had offended An Yiqing, they only saw a dead end ahead!
After hearing the cursing and explanations from these thugs, Boss Wang also realized he might have truly offended someone untouchable…
However, whatever happened to these people was of no concern to An Yiqing.
They were merely spices in the bland stew of life; who would let a single fly ruin their entire lives?
Having delivered the jadeite to the Medicine Sect Foothold, it was now past three in the afternoon.
Gu Yelin naturally seized the last chance to spend time with An Yiqing and used dinner as an excuse to monopolize another hour of her time.
He wished he could package this little white rabbit and take her home to cherish behind closed doors.
Alas, given the current circumstances, it was merely a fantasy for Third Young Master Gu.
——I am the little foodie divider line——
The next day, An Yiqing arrived early at the antique market.
Zhenbaozhai, specializing in jadeite and other precious stones, was considered a major player in the antique market.
Its owner, Zhang Yuksheng, was a genius who started from scratch at twenty-three; with his own talents and opportunities, he made a name for himself in the jade industry.
Unfortunately, he had the misfortune of trusting the wrong people.
His significant other and his so-called friend had conspired against him, not only taking all his wealth but also causing his sister to fall into a coma.
Many veterans in the jade industry shook their heads in pity, lamenting the waste of Zhang Yuksheng’s talents.
Now, a comeback seemed incredibly difficult for him!
An Yiqing came today specifically for Zhang Yuksheng.
After yesterday’s contact, she had already planned to recruit Zhang Yuksheng.
He was not just talented, but also had integrity; such a person in ancient times would certainly have been a fiercely loyal and gallant general.
An Yiqing inquired around and soon located Zhenbaozhai.
At that moment, a dramatic scene was unfolding within Zhenbaozhai.
