Chapter 473: Chapter 473 Who Are You Scaring?
With an indifferent glance at the departing car, Yang Qi chuckled.
Those inside probably thought he couldn’t hear anything, but in reality, he had heard everything loud and clear.
But whatever. Let them have their laugh.
How could a sparrow possibly understand the ambition of a swan?
"I told you we shouldn’t et again. It’s a pity you didn’t understand what I ant," Yang Qi chuckled.
A streak of cold light suddenly shot out. In the air, the sounds of the bronze artifact sword piercing bodies echoed one after another. These people didn’t even have a chance to scream before they collapsed.
There was no pity in Yang Qi’s eyes. From the conversation he’d overheard from Jiang Shan and the others, he could tell that these people were hardened killers. Getting rid of them was a service to the public.
"Be better people in your next life."
Yang Qi waved his hand, and flas ignited on each body, gradually turning them to ash.
Afterward, he got back in his car and continued toward Three Prefectures Town as if he had just done sothing utterly trivial.
Upon entering Three Prefectures Town, he could clearly feel it was much safer than the outside. After all, this place was controlled by Jin Zizhen, who had established the rules. The City Lord Mansion would not forgive anyone who broke them.
After entering the town, Yang Qi and Chen Baixiang first checked into a hotel, then drove around to get acquainted with the place. Three Prefectures Town wasn’t huge, but it certainly wasn’t small either. Over the years, it had developed into the equivalent of a county seat.
Its prosperity even surpassed that of most county seats in the country.
"You’re actually still alive!"
As Yang Qi stopped the car and went to check out the auction venue, he heard a very unfriendly voice.
What do they an, ’still alive’? What an unpleasant thing to say.
Yang Qi turned and glanced. "Well, if it isn’t Jiang Shan."
This person was the matchmaker who had introduced him to Li Qiutong back in the day. Yang Qi had even given the woman a sum of money to thank her, but he hadn’t seen her since.
To be honest, because of Li Qiutong, Yang Qi didn’t have a good impression of this Jiang Shan. Further investigation had revealed that Jiang Shan had been helping Li Qiutong secretly transfer his assets. For every transfer, Jiang Shan got a cut.
It was good of
not to have caused trouble for this woman, and yet she dares to mock ?
There were four other people with Jiang Shan: one woman and three n.
"Yeah, wasn’t this guy surrounded by that group earlier? How is he not dead!"
The group was very surprised.
"Should I be?" Yang Qi said coolly.
"Shan Shan, this ’friend’ of yours is pretty bold, speaking so sharply," one of the n chuckled.
"What friend? He’s nothing but a big sucker!" Jiang Shan knew that Yang Qi and Li Qiutong had divorced and that he had gone bankrupt. However, she was unaware of what happened afterward, as she hadn’t been in contact with Li Qiutong for months, having been busy with new clients.
She then told them the story about Yang Qi and Li Qiutong, provoking a round of laughter from the group.
"Wow, what a total failure. Cheated on by his own woman, and his company went bankrupt. If I were him, I would’ve killed myself long ago!" a richly dressed young man roared with laughter.
"You are not allowed to insult Mr. Yang!" Chen Baixiang couldn’t help but interject. "The one who should be ashad is that bitch! Besides, Mr. Yang is far more outstanding than any of you!"
Jiang Shan glanced at Chen Baixiang and laughed. "Well now, Yang Qi. Looks like you’ve learned how to pick up girls after your failure! But have you told her you’re bankrupt? This isn’t a place you’re qualified to be. Coming to Three Prefectures Town ans spending a lot of money."
"Bitch, you’d better shut your mouth!" Chen Baixiang was livid. "If you dare say another bad word about Mr. Yang, believe , I’ll tear your mouth to shreds!"
In her heart, Yang Qi was a hero, the person she admired most. Anyone who insulted him was insulting her idol, and she would never stand for it.
"You dare call
a bitch? I think you’re looking to die!" Jiang Shan was also furious.
Just as the two won looked ready to co to blows, a young man stepped between them. He seed to hold the highest status among the five, dressed head to toe in designer clothes.
He smiled and said, "Alright, Jiang Shan. We’re all just visitors here in a dangerous place like Three Prefectures Town. It’s better if we help each other out!"
Although the young man was addressing Jiang Shan, his eyes kept glancing toward Chen Baixiang. It was obvious he was interested in her, and understandably so. Of the two won in their group, neither could compare to Chen Baixiang in beauty.
"Friends? Heh, we couldn’t possibly presu to be friends with people like you," Yang Qi scoffed. "By the way, Jiang Shan, I haven’t seen you in a while. Since we’ve t today, shouldn’t you return the money you took from ?"
"Money? What money? Who owes you money?" Jiang Shan looked at Yang Qi with disdain. "That money was given to
by Li Qiutong. What does it have to do with you?"
She didn’t take Yang Qi seriously at all. After all, she had helped swindle so much money from him before without any consequences, which made her view him with utter contempt. In her eyes, Yang Qi was just a gullible sucker and a coward.
"Heh. It might not have been much, but my money isn’t sothing people can just take without returning," Yang Qi sneered. "I’ll be here for a few days. Consider that your deadline. If the money isn’t returned by then, don’t bla
for what happens next."
"Who are you trying to scare, you coward!" Jiang Shan retorted with a sneer.
"Hahaha, it’s just money, no big deal!" the young man spoke up again. "I’ll pay on Jiang Shan’s behalf. But, sir, since we seem to have hit it off, how about we beco friends? I happen to have tickets for the auction. Without one, you can’t get into the venue."
’Hit it off’? More like lust at first sight... and only because of Chen Baixiang.
"Tickets?"
Yang Qi was startled. He hadn’t expected the auction here would actually require tickets. This was a problem. He had only just arrived, and tonight was the first night of the event. Ticket sales had already ended. Where was he supposed to get one now?
It seems I arrived a bit late. I should have co a day earlier.
"No need to worry, my friend. I have extra tickets. We can all go in together when the ti cos," the young man smiled. "By the way, my surna is Tang. My na’s Tang Fei, from Sea City! You two must rember that!"
"So, it’s Young Master Tang," Chen Baixiang said curiously. "I wonder what your relationship is with the Tang Family of Sea City?"
"I am from the Tang Family!" Tang Fei declared proudly.
"Oh, so you’re a young master from the Tang Family. In that case, Mr. Yang and I will go look around for a bit. We’ll be counting on you for the tickets!" Chen Baixiang said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tang Fei’s heart surged with excitent. Success!
Although he was from a branch of the Tang Family, it wasn’t exactly wrong to say he was a mber—he just lacked the wealth and status of the main family.
