Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Continue ’Tricking’ People
"What... what do you want?"
Seeing Zhu Fei suddenly looking at him, Mu Cheng couldn’t help but take several steps back, his face pale as he asked with a trembling voice.
By now, he had realized that Zhu Fei was totally a madman, a ruthless character, an ’Evil Qi’ who didn’t care about anything at all!
The esteemed young master of the Guo Group, he said he would trap him and did so without any scruples, entirely at ease with himself.
Mu Cheng admitted, although his background was not worse than Guo Shaonjun’s, if he were to trap Guo Shaonjun in the way Zhu Fei did, he would never dare.
"Hehe, Mu Cheng, speaking of which, the grievances between you and me, they are much deeper than those with Young Master Guo, don’t you think? How do you suppose I should deal with you?"
During his speech, Zhu Fei had already switched back to a smile, but the expression in his eyes didn’t contain a hint of mirth—just piercing coldness!
This made Mu Cheng shiver inside again.
He lowered his head to look at the unconscious Guo Shaonjun, then glanced at the gangsters still writhing in pain on the ground not far away, finally gritted his teeth, raised his head, and said to Zhu Fei:
"Zhu Fei, even if the grievances between you and me are deeper than with Guo Shaonjun, I have more money than him right now. If you agree not to harm me in a minute, then I’m willing to offer you double what Guo Shaonjun did before, which is two hundred thousand. What do you think?"
"Oh, you can take out two hundred thousand?"
Hearing Mu Cheng’s words, Zhu Fei’s eyes lit up slightly.
The money he had on him now, plus the hundred thousand he had extorted from Guo Shaonjun, was still less than two hundred thousand.
If he wanted to buy the medicinal materials needed for his alchemy with this money, it clearly wouldn’t be enough.
But if he could extort another two hundred thousand from Mu Cheng, then he would temporarily have enough money to buy the necessary materials.
However, although this was what Zhu Fei was thinking, his face intentionally revealed a cold smirk.
"Mu Cheng, you aren’t new to this world either. You should understand the rules of the underworld. Guo Shaonjun gave me a hundred thousand, and I only knocked him out."
"And regarding our current grievance, you think you can stop me from going after you with just two hundred thousand? Should I say you’re too naïve or do you think I, Zhu Fei, am a fool?"
Even though Mu Cheng was still very fearful of Zhu Fei, suddenly hearing his nearly shameless words, a surge of uncontrollable anger rose in his heart.
Rules of the underworld? Bulls**t rules!
If you, Zhu Fei, understood the rules of the underworld, how could you have struck him again after receiving Guo Shaonjun’s ransom?
And you say I’m too naïve, that I think you, Zhu Fei, are a fool? I see that it’s actually you, Zhu Fei, who is taking me, Mu Cheng, for a fool!
In an instant, Mu Cheng cursed Zhu Fei from head to toe in his mind.
But externally, Mu Cheng still didn’t dare to show it.
Just like Guo Shaonjun before him, he also kept a pained expression and said to Zhu Fei, "Look Zhu Fei, two hundred thousand is already a lot, that’s almost all of my savings."
But his words didn’t elicit a response from Zhu Fei, who still looked at him with a mocking gaze.
Seeing this, Mu Cheng finally gritted his teeth and resolutely held up three fingers, saying to Zhu Fei, "Three hundred thousand, that’s the highest bid I can make. If you don’t agree, might as well just beat me up."
"Done! It’s a deal!"
Little did Mu Cheng know, as soon as he spoke up, Zhu Fei almost didn’t think twice and immediately agreed.
Zhu Fei had originally thought if he could extort two hundred thousand from Mu Cheng, he would be very satisfied.
The attitude he showed earlier was just a subconscious gesture.
Unexpectedly, Mu Cheng was so easy to deceive. A casual move from Zhu Fei and he raised the ransom by another hundred thousand.
Truly, an unexpected joy.
Seeing Zhu Fei’s delighted expression now, Mu Cheng finally realized, could it be that he was just severely duped by Zhu Fei again?
With this thought, Mu Cheng felt like his heart was bleeding.
However, since the words were already spoken, it was clearly impossible to take them back.
All he could do was say cautiously, "Zhu Fei, you won’t do like last time, take my money and then turn around and harm me again, will you?"
"Hehe, no, no, you can rest assured this time, I guarantee, once I take your money, I definitely won’t make a move on you."
In Zhu Fei’s view, the grudge between him and Mu Cheng was not worth those three hundred thousand.
Harming him would only give Zhu Fei a momentary satisfaction, but no real benefit.
Since that was the case, it’s better not to go after him, to take the three hundred thousand from him, and to then buy the alchemy materials—that was the real matter at hand.
Besides...
He only promised not to strike Mu Cheng himself; he never agreed to ensure his complete safety.
Meaning, if someone else decided to strike at Mu Cheng now, Zhu Fei couldn’t be blamed.
Zhu Fei smiled as he raised his hand to take out his phone. After quickly typing a text message, he immediately sent it.
Seeing Zhu Fei take out his phone, Mu Cheng thought it was a signal for him to transfer money.
Without another thought, he transferred three hundred thousand by phone banking to the account Zhu Fei had given him.
"That... that Zhu Fei, I have already sent you the money. You won’t attack me now, will you?"
Mu Cheng looked at Zhu Fei with a wary face, extremely nervous, afraid that Zhu Fei would break the agreement and strike him immediately.
"Hehe, no, no, I’ve already said that I won’t lay a hand on you after taking the money. You have to trust my reputation."
Looking at Zhu Fei’s "sincere" smile, Mu Cheng cursed inwardly, "Trust your reputation, my foot."
However, seeing that Zhu Fei still showed no intention of attacking at this point, Mu Cheng’s tensed heart slightly relaxed.
He vowed inwardly, "Zhu Fei, just wait, this isn’t over. The money you took from me today, I’ll make sure you spit it all back out!"
Finally, after more than ten minutes had passed, Mu Cheng was completely reassured.
He didn’t know why, but as Zhu Fei hadn’t asked him to leave, he still felt uneasy and dared not actually leave.
However, as time passed and Zhu Fei seemed normal, Mu Cheng finally gathered the courage to ask, "That Zhu Fei, can I go now?"
Hearing Mu Cheng’s question, Zhu Fei looked at him with a hint of disappointment and murmured to himself, "What? Could it be that they can’t make it?"
"What? What can’t make it?"
Mu Cheng was confused and instinctively asked back.
"Oh, nothing. You can go."
Just as Zhu Fei finished speaking, several police cars suddenly drove up from a distance.
In just a moment, the police cars stopped in front of Zhu Fei and the others.
The doors opened, and several police officers holding weapons immediately surrounded Mu Cheng and the others.
And the leader among them was none other than the captain of the Lan City criminal police — Qiu Ruoxue!
At this moment, her face was cold as she walked straight up to Zhu Fei, glanced around casually, then suddenly turned to Zhu Fei and said, "Zhu Fei, is this the ’urgent situation’ you mentioned? Being attacked?"
Seeing Qiu Ruoxue’s displeased look, Zhu Fei knew he had exaggerated a bit in his message.
He could only reply with a forced laugh, "Hehe, I couldn’t help it, could I? If I had really waited for you to come while standing there without moving, then it would have indeed been a critical emergency."
In fact, the text message Zhu Fei had sent earlier was to Qiu Ruoxue.
It’s just that the content of his message didn’t quite match the current situation.
That was also one of the reasons why Qiu Ruoxue arrived here with such a cold demeanor.
At this moment, hearing Zhu Fei’s explanation, a hint of evil Qi flashed across her beautiful face.
Then, without looking at Zhu Fei, she directed all her fury toward a stunned Mu Cheng.
Poor Mu Cheng, still unclear about what exactly was happening here,
suddenly felt pain in his lower body and seemed to be struck hard on the back of his head, then just like Guo Shaonjun, he too passed out.
"Take them all away!"
After knocking Mu Cheng out, Qiu Ruoxue immediately ordered the police officers around her. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Watching Mu Cheng being lifted into the police car, Zhu Fei couldn’t help but find it somewhat funny.
How unlucky Mu Cheng was today, not only had Zhu Fei tricked him out of three hundred thousand, but just when he thought he was safe, disaster struck.
It was bad enough that Qiu Ruoxue knocked him out, but before doing so, when she was in a bad mood, she had also landed a blow below.
Despite all the misfortune that befell Mu Cheng being linked to Zhu Fei, Zhu Fei felt not a hint of sympathy or guilt, instead, he took a kind of perverse pleasure in it.
...
"Zhu Fei, remember you owe me a favor today,"
As the police were loading Mu Cheng, Guo Shaonjun, and the others into the police vehicle, Qiu Ruoxue suddenly said coldly to Zhu Fei.
"Right, since you’re so skilled, there’s another case coming up that might need your help. You can’t refuse me then since I’ve already handled this matter for you today."
With that, Qiu Ruoxue swiftly jumped into the police car and drove off.
Watching the police cars disappear into the distance, Zhu Fei touched his nose and shook his head with a bitter smile, "This woman, she’s not as easy to talk to as I thought."
