Chapter 13 The Way to Kill Xiao Bing

Xie Lun opened the door and went in. The room was not big, and it looked like an ordinary bedroom. Peony flowers of various colors were planted around the room, and the room was full of its fragrance.

The bed was blocked by a pink curtain. Behind the curtain, a seductive silhouette could be made out. It couldn't be seen clearly, but a sensual figure lay on the bed on the other side of the curtain, both alluring and enticing.

"Mr. Xie... Please sit."

Xie Lun looked around and found a chair against the wall, walking to it before sitting down. Xie Lun himself was not an ordinary person. Though he was considered well-known in the Jiangcheng business field, he was currently feeling incredibly uneasy.

"Mr. Xie." The voice from inside was incredibly captivating. Every sentence, every word was like a slender and smooth finger gliding across Xie Lun's face, neck, and chest... It made it difficult for him to endure. "This time, are you here for your son?"

Xie Lun was taken aback. His eyes, which were full of desire earlier, were back to normal. At this moment, he had only just realized that the woman sitting behind the curtain was not just a foxy woman, but also the North Heavenly Queen, the lord of the entire northern part of Jiangcheng City!

Xie Lun spat out a sigh, before trying to show his dignity as the head of the Xie family. He gently crossed his legs and asked, "Regarding my son, how did you get to know of it?"

Although Xie Lun tried his best to look calm, his wandering eyes sold out his restless mind. He did not dare to look up, for fear that he could not control his own desire. It was like there existed a great attractive force behind the curtain, which compelled him to lose control and lift the curtain to peek at the other side.

The Peony Fairy chuckled gently, causing Xie Lun's desire to surge forth once again.

She smiled seductively, saying in a gentle, lovely voice, "In the entire northern area of Jiangcheng City, there is nothing I don't know, and no one I can't handle..."

Upon talking business, the desire in Xie Lun's heart was suppressed by his deep-seated hatred of Xiao Bing. Xie Lun raised his head and excitedly said, "Can you help me kill him? No, I want to break his legs, cripple him, and then leave him to suffer in this city. I'll make him wish he were dead."

"Hehe... you're very resentful." The Peony Fairy giggled, and with a slightly sarcastic tone, suddenly said, "Obviously, you are a narrow-minded man. I heard that the conflict between you and Xiao Bing was started by you and your son."

Xie Lun was not happy to hear this. But he couldn't get angry because of the Fairy's influence.

"Don't worry, I don't care who was in the wrong. I just want to know: what will I get for helping you?"

Xie Lun calmed down. He looked behind the curtain and asked, "What do you want?"

"In this world, no matter what you want, you have to pay an appropriate price for it. What I want is simple: I want 80% of the shares of your branch office in the North District."

"That is impossible!" Xie Lun was both shocked and angry. "The North District's industry is 30% of my wealth. 80% of the North District's branch is equivalent to 20% of my wealth. Do you know much I'm worth?"

"You think that's impressive?" The Peony Fairy's voice was full of disdain, "No matter how rich you are, I know that compared to the Ye family, your money is like a drop in the ocean. It's just that I need to get a reward. No matter who you ask for help, you need to offer a reward. As a businessman, you should know better."

"The price is too high." Xie Lun stood up and said angrily, "I won't accept it!"

"It's fine for you to not accept." The Peony Fairy was calm and collected, but what she said made Xie Lun feel powerless to refute. "I heard that the man called Xiao Bing is a Ming Jin master, right? Dealing with a Ming Jin master will cost a lot, even for me. I don't even know his degree of strength; if he's a Ming Jin junior, intermediate, or senior. If he's a Ming Jin senior, it will be a disaster for me, a disaster that can't be offset even with the entirety of your fortune."

Xie Lun sat back, helpless. He struggled internally. The Peony Fairy was right, no one wants to offend a Ming Jin master. But if the Peony Fairy refused to help, there would be no way to take revenge.

Xie Lun gritted his teeth and was about to accept. Suddenly, the Peony Fairy said with a smile, "But... If you don't want to pay such a large price, I have an alternative idea for you."

Xie Lun quickly asked with his eyes wide, "What's the idea?"

"This idea has a price of ten million yuan, and I am only responsible for providing the idea. What you do next, has nothing to do with me."

Xie Lun frowned slightly and said, "10 million yuan for just an idea?"

The Peony Fairy countered, "It's an idea capable of bringing down a Ming Jin master. Isn't it worth ten million?"

Ten million was nothing much for Xie Lun. After hearing what the Peony Fairy said, he made a prompt decision. "I'll pay for it! I'll have my secretary transfer the money to your account when I get back. What exactly is the idea?"

"After coming to Jiangcheng City, Xiao Bing had a conflict with the gang leader of the Minhang Road, Finger-breaker, who died on the same night... I heard that you get along well with the Public Security Bureau director of Jinsha District. Can't you dig some dirt from this?"

Xie Lun eyes widened as he listened. He got so excited that he bolted up at the thought of Xiao Bing being beaten up.

The Peony Fairy laughed, "You're leaving, Mr. Xie?"

"Ten million, I'll transfer all the money to your account. I'll take my leave now."

"Take care, Mr. Xie."

When Xie Lun walked to the door, and just as he was to leave, he looked back on the bed with eyes full of desire.

After Xie Lun left, the window curtains suddenly moved. A tall man came out from behind the curtains. Xie Lun had been sitting there the whole time without realizing there was another person in the room throughout.

The man had fluffy hair, and he wore a beige outfit and a pair of cloth shoes. He was tall, and although not stout, his body was full of sturdy muscles, giving the impression of a lion.

The most eye-catching thing was that he was wearing a black blindfold, covering both his eyes. But he still gave a very natural impression, as if being blind had no effect on him.

After the man came out from behind the curtain, he went straight towards the bed. He held out his hand, flitting across the curtain with his fingers. He hesitated a little before taking back his hand.

The Peony Fairy asked, "Why don't you dare lift it?"

"It's not that I don't dare, but it is unnecessary." The man's cheeks twitched slightly, showing that he was not calm. "You know, this curtain makes no difference to me. The old guy just now... when he looked at you with eyes full of evil intent, I almost couldn't help coming out and killing him."

The Peony Fairy giggled, "Can you see how he looked at me?"

"I can't see it... but I can feel it. When he looked at you, his eyes were full of desire. The desire a man has for a woman's body. I don't know what this old man was imagining!"

The man almost gnashed his teeth while saying those words, showing his hatred.

"Hehe... Hehehe..." The Peony Fairy couldn't stop laughing. The man's face looked awful. At last, he showed a face full of pain and dejection. Then he heard the Peony Fairy's shrill voice, asking, "You're jealous. Envious. Upset. Troubled. But who do you think you are?"

"Zhu Mingyu, in front of me, you are just a dog, a dog! !!!"

Listening to Peony Fairy's jeers, Zhu Mingyu's whole body began to shake incessantly. Tears suddenly soaked the black blindfold before dripping down.

The Peony Fairy said coldly, "How can you cry when you don't have eyes?"

Zhu Mingyu's voice was deep, carrying with it both bitterness and sadness, "As long as I have a heart, I will cry! If the heart is dead, then there is nothing left, not to mention tears. There is no greater sorrow than the death of the heart."

After Zhu Mingyu said these words, the room became quiet. After a long time, the Peony Fairy sighed, "How can your heart die..."

It was almost closing hours for the Xiaoxiao Noodle House. The three girls got up and were reluctant to leave, especially Xu Wenting and Chen Yuanyuan. They had never met a soldier before. Tonight, they had listened to Xiao Bing talk about the army and had listened with relish. The two third wheels almost stole the show.

At the same time, Zhang Yizhi also came out of the restaurant. Seeing him, Xiao Bing felt a bit embarrassed. He had invited Zhang Yizhi for dinner but left him hanging there for the whole night. It was like Xiao Bing didn't put in much effort towards him.

Zhang Yizhi looked at Xiao Bing and cracked a smile, "The meal I was invited to eat tonight was good and delicious. I'll come back again if I have the chance."

Everyone knew what was going on after they heard these words. Yezi cutely stuck her tongue out. If it weren't for her, Xiao Bing wouldn't have let this old man hanging there all alone.

Xu Wenting and Chen Yuanyuan hid to the side and chuckled. It seemed that they were enjoying the bustling scene.

Zhang Yizhi's eyes swept across the faces of the three girls one by one and finally landed on the face of Yezi. With his intuition, he could feel that the girl in front of him was the one that made Xiao Bing so excited.

As expected, Zhang Yizhi asked, "You must be Yezi?"

Yezi, perhaps feeling embarrassed or inconveniencing him, felt uneasy under Zhang Yizhi's gaze. She answered with some embarrassment, "I am, grandpa... I'm sorry."

Zhang Yizhi was more and more satisfied with her. He smiled after hearing Yezi's apology and said, "Xiao Bing and I have known each other for five years. Although there is a big age gap, we are still good friends. Today's incident was not a big deal... But you, I have never seen Xiao Bing willing to share with other girls the things on his mind, and there was never a woman that could open up his heart... You are the first and only one."

"I just wanted to see what you looked like... And after seeing you, not bad... Not bad at all."

"All right, I'm old and easily tired... Foye, let's go home first."

Yezi stood behind him and said, "Grandpa, take care."

When Zhang Yizhi left the noodle shop, Yezi thought of what Zhang Yizhi had said before he left. She peeked at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing's eyes also glanced at her at the same time, making eye contact before quickly breaking away. They both could feel butterflies in their stomachs.

Was that... a spark of connection？
