Chapter 899: Chapter 901: Tricks Pursues Lin Fei’s Whereabouts
"Xiao Zhi is here, co, have a seat."
In the ancient dieval-style castle of the Western Continent, Tricks, dressed in a loose maternity outfit, showed no princess airs as she greeted Xue Zhi warmly and familiarly, as if welcoming a family mber.
If others could receive such hospitality from Tricks, they would likely feel overwheld and honored.
However, Xue Zhi clearly did not share this feeling.
Understanding the slightly complex relationship between Tricks and Lin Fei, and knowing the main reason Tricks had summoned him, he felt uneasy.
Seeing Tricks deliberately wearing the maternity outfit for him, the only feeling that arose in Xue Zhi was a tingle on his scalp!
"Sis-in-law, you, what’s this?"
"Xiao Zhi, you should know better. You are, after all, the top strategist of your Hell’s Judgent. Can’t you see this simple matter?" After seeming to reprimand Xue Zhi in an annoyed manner, Tricks seed to speak solemnly, "I am pregnant, and the child is Lin Fei’s!"
Of course, you would say that!
While silently ridiculing in his heart, Xue Zhi pretended to hesitate, speaking awkwardly, "Sis-in-law, I rember when I saw you last week, your belly didn’t seem—"
"Are you now suspecting that I’m lying?"
Is there even a need to suspect!
Xue Zhi, feeling helpless at Tricks’ cold gaze, could only forcefully respond, "Sis-in-law, you know how much respect I have for you. Your word is like an edict to . Rest assured, Sis-in-law, I will imdiately inform the boss that you’re pregnant. I believe he will co to see you as soon as he hears the news. If there’s nothing else, Sis-in-law, I will—"
"Let
see you walk away!"
"Sis-in-law, I—"
Bang!
With a heavy slap on the table, Tricks’ expression turned completely cold, as she spoke word by word with a cold tone, "Enough talk! Whether Lin Fei will co to see
on his own, you and I both know. Xiao Zhi, I’ll ask you one last ti, where exactly is Lin Fei now?!"
"Sis-in-law, you said the last ti you asked was two months ago."
"That’s not the point! Xiao Zhi, you need to understand, I’m a pregnant woman now! Do you understand? If you upset
and I miscarry, can you bear the responsibility?!"
"Sis-in-law, not only can I not bear the responsibility for a miscarriage, but I can’t even bear if you catch a cold or the flu. But, Sis-in-law, you know the boss’s character well. He never tells
where he goes. I truly don’t know where he is. If I did, I would have told you already."
"Xiao Zhi, in your Mo Country’s old sayings, lying would be punished by lightning, right?!"
"Sis-in-law, it’s better not to say such things. Besides, even if there’s lightning, I won’t be the only one struck."
"So, you’re admitting you’re lying now?!"
"Sis-in-law, you’ve misunderstood. I ant that in the matter of pregnancy, you also lied."
Montarily speechless from Xue Zhi’s retort, Tricks simply gave up moving around with her big belly.
Bang!
Pulling out a round pillow from inside her maternity outfit, Tricks heavily threw it at Xue Zhi.
"Damn Xiao Zhi, tell , what must I do for you to tell
where Lin Fei went?!"
"Sis-in-law, I keep saying the sa thing. The boss is on a special mission. You know the rcenaries’ creed; we can’t reveal any mission information until it’s completed."
"For you to repeat such a lousy excuse so many tis, you surely have a hard ti."
"Sis-in-law, you don’t need to sympathize with . If you really do, please don’t co to ask
next ti. You can try asking Radar; he deals with intelligence and can surely help you find the boss’s location. If not, try asking Butcher, he might—"
"Xiao Xuan probably went to Mo Country with Lin Fei, right?"
"Sis-in-law, I don’t understand what you’re saying."
"Don’t pretend to be naive. Lin Fei hasn’t shown up for so long. I can guess he’s definitely gone to Mo Country. Otherwise, my people would have found at least so trace of him by now." After coldly rebuffing Xue Zhi, Tricks suddenly shifted her tone, "Hell’s Judgent has expanded a bit too fast in Western Continent over the years. I’m considering asking my father to pressure the European Union to suppress your Hell’s Judgent’s montum."
Hearing Tricks’ intentions to suppress, Xue Zhi, with a slight sweat on his mind, replied sowhat lancholically, "Sis-in-law, you can’t vent your feelings towards the entire Hell’s Judgent due to the problems between you and the boss. That’s not good."
"Lin Fei took my body, stole my heart, and then disappeared. How is that good for ?!"
Tricks’ last sentence was squeezed out from between her teeth!
Coldly gazing at Xue Zhi for two, three seconds, Tricks knew he probably couldn’t answer her, she took a deep breath and spoke with a hint of seduction, "Xiao Zhi, since you don’t want to hear about my feelings with Lin Fei, let’s talk business. I’ve heard your Hell’s Judgent is facing financial pressure due to rapid expansion in the Southern Continent?"
It’s not just slight pressure, it’s extrely tight!
It’s not just Southern expansion; due to the collaboration agreent with Yang the Elder, the East Luoya market must also expand concurrently.
After acquiring an attack-style nuclear-powered submarine from the Teutons, significant funds are now required for submarine developnt.
In short, Hell’s Judgent nowadays is short on money!
Very short on money!
"Sis-in-law, to be honest, our organization is currently facing severe financial shortages. If, Sis-in-law, you’re considering borrowing money from , I’m afraid that’s beyond my capability."
"Xiao Zhi, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t want to borrow money from you; I want to lend you money."
"Sis-in-law, if you’re trying to use this thod to get the boss’s whereabouts from ..." With his expression getting significantly more solemn, Xue Zhi spoke slowly, "I can only say, Sis-in-law—how much are you prepared to lend ?"
