The Ace Bodyguard - C49
Xiao Ziye was shocked, and almost became angry as well. How could Wang Xiao be such a scoundrel?
After withdrawing her foot, Xiao Ziye fiercely stomped down on Wang Xiao. The teacup tightly gripped in her hand almost smashed onto Wang Xiao’s head: “Wang Xiao, what are you doing?”
Xiao Ziye could no longer hold it in and asked angrily.
“Yeye, you should know what I want to do. If there’s a beauty that’s willing to marry Wang Xiao and have a child, it’s fine even if I have to go through fire and water.”
In fact, Wang Xiao did it on purpose, he purposely made things difficult for Xiao Ziye, allowing him to retreat after learning of the difficulties. Because he really did not want to help the police with Ghost Valley.
If this matter were to succeed, all the credit would belong to someone else, and those boss who talked about righteousness and morality would be able to rely on this credit to advance to the next level.
But as for himself, not only did he have nothing, not only could he not get anything, he would also offend Ghost Valley, and the hatred between him and them was even deeper.
“Wang Xiao, I have misjudged the person, why don’t you just say it, other than that kind of thing, how else can you agree to it? For example, how much money do you want?” Xiao Ziye asked directly.
She was very angry, wanting to leave as soon as possible, without even having the mood to talk to Wang Xiao.
“Five million.” Wang Xiao raised his hand and asked for 5 million.
His price startled Xiao Ziye.
Xiao Ziye looked at Wang Xiao in shock. She couldn’t believe that Wang Xiao actually wanted five million. Five million was an astronomical figure, alright?
Even if the police had spent a year’s worth of money, they still might not have been able to spend that much. Wang Xiao said with his mouth wide open. To directly ask for so much money, that was too heartless and unrealistic.
“I can at most give you fifty thousand.” Xiao Ziye shook her head.
“Not one cent less.” Wang Xiao said firmly.
“Wang Xiao, our department can’t even afford to take out that much money. Are you really that heartless? Xiao Ziye asked seriously.
“Then your matter has nothing to do with me.” Wang Xiao said indifferently.
Actually, the price of five million was already very low. If it was overseas, their team would need at least several tens of millions to accept this kind of mission, but Wang Xiao only asked for a few million.
As for whether Xiao Ziye could even afford that much money, Wang Xiao was not concerned about it at all. F * ck, those bosses all live a life of debauchery and debauchery. Even if there was a bit of money, they would still take it out to eat and play. Rather than having it take out for fun and entertainment, it would be better to give it to him.
“Wang Xiao, do you think our department is a money shop? How do you think we have that much money?” Xiao Ziye said unhappily.
If they really wanted to pay that much money, they might as well ask the members of the national field team to come. However, the field squads wouldn’t be easily dispatched.
“Beauty Xiao Ziye, to you people, a few hundred years is nothing. Just by finding a name, you can earn a lot of money.” Wang Xiao said.
“What do you mean? Are you trying to say that we are incompetent and are profligate?” Xiao Ziye looked at Wang Xiao with an ice-cold expression. She was truly angry.
“Isn’t that so? To spend ten thousand just for a single cup of tea… There might be more than just those who hold higher positions. “Since you guys are so rich and often spend so much money like dirt, it’s not too much if I want a few million.” Wang Xiao also looked at Xiao Ziye.
“Half a sentence is too much.” Xiao Ziye got up and left.
“… …”
Walking on the busy streets, Wang Xiao’s mood was heavy. Previously, he had separated from Xiao Ziye on bad terms, but even though it was within his expectations, he did not expect that it would be the result of this.
He had been impulsive and not calm enough.
In fact, when Xiao Ziye invited Wang Xiao to that teahouse, and found out that the other party frequently went to spend them, which was why there were always tens of thousands of them, Wang Xiao did not have a good impression of him.
The world was as dark as a crow, rarely paying attention to the lives of its citizens.
When there were many remote mountains where countless children could not even get enough food and clothing, those who were at the throne continued to spend a lot of money, spending as much as they wanted.
Maybe it was because of his childhood, Wang Xiao hated this kind of people. When he was young, Wang Xiao’s family wasn’t well. He often wore patched clothes and it was difficult for him to have a meal a week.
At that time, his father was still a doctor, yet his family had lived such a miserable life. Those poor families couldn’t even afford to eat.
Sigh!
Wang Xiao sighed, he should not be mad at Xiao Ziye. Living in this society, can only follow the trend, why is everything so serious. The reason he made those rude and even outrageous demands towards Xiao Ziye was very simple; he wanted to directly cut off Xiao Ziye’s thoughts.
If Xiao Ziye had only invited him to a normal restaurant, the cost of a meal would not be more than a few hundred, even if Wang Xiao offered to pay for it, it would probably have cost him tens of thousands of yuan, not much. ‘s actions of squandering so much money reminded him of the luxurious life people lived when bathing in red wine.
As for the matter with the Ghost Valley, even if Wang Xiao wanted to manage, it would only be done in secret. He did not want to cause a commotion throughout the city, and even more so, he did not want to be the scapegoat for others.
When the sky turned dark, Wang Xiao received a message from Yang Lei.
The content was that she was going out to discuss business matters and would not be back at night. She would let Wang Xiao sleep on the streets.
Wang Xiao shook his head helplessly. Yang Lei was too excessive, to actually let him sleep on the street. F * ck, am I that poor? If I leave her, I’m going to sleep on the street.
Since Yang Lei didn’t return tonight, Wang Xiao planned to return to rest and accompany her father.
In a dilapidated district, Wang Xiao walked with large strides towards a building. This was the old part of town, and most of the buildings were dilapidated.
There weren’t many residences in the old city, and most people had bought houses in the new city. Many of the houses here were already abandoned. The authorities had wanted to flatten the old city and build the houses here. And most residents hoped so, because of the high compensation.
However, after some calculation, if the reconstruction of the old city was to be completed, the high cost would far exceed the expenditure of the new city. Thus, the relevant departments gave up the plan of moving to the city and replanned a new area of land to establish a new city.
The building in front of them was twenty stories tall. It used to be home to fifty or sixty families, but now only a dozen or so families lived here. The conditions here were indeed very poor. Compared to the villa where Yang Lei lived in, there was indeed a heaven and earth difference, like the difference between heaven and hell.
Not only was the house in this place in ruins, it was also littered with trash. Walking in the dilapidated residential area, what they were stepping on was a garbage bag, and what they smelled was a musty smell, as well as a terrible stench. After getting the money, he must buy the villa and have his little sister and father move out to give them better living conditions.
As a son who had grown up into an adult, if he didn’t allow his father to live a better life, then how would he have the face to stand on the ground in this world? When Wang Xiao arrived in front of his own house’s door, he only heard the sound of cooking coming from within the room, and the smell of oil and smoke pervaded the corridor.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Wang Xiao lightly knocked on the door.
Creak!
The door opened, and it was his father, Wang Ping, who opened it. Wang Xiao suddenly realised that his father seemed to be even older than before. It was true that once a person grew old, they would become almost the same as before every day.
“You’re back.” Wang Ping said while laughing.
“Yes, Dad.” Wang Xiao’s heart was filled with guilt and apology. His father had aged so fast because of him. Ten years ago, if not for that incident, dad wouldn’t have aged so quickly.
“It’s good that you’re back. Come on in, we’re drinking a lot today. Your sister is cooking. I’ll have her cook a few more dishes.” Wang Ping said in joy.
Brother!
A sweet voice came out, only to see Wang Xiaoyue walking out of the kitchen, wearing an apron on her body. Seeing Wang Xiao coming back, Wang Xiaoyue felt joy from the bottom of her heart, and smiled.
“Little sister, are you not in school?” Wang Xiao asked.
“The school is on vacation today.” Wang Xiaoyue said.
“It’s not a weekend, nor a holiday. Why would the school take a break for no reason?” Wang Xiao asked.
“This… You don’t need to ask about this, you won’t understand anyway. In short, the school is on vacation today. ” Wang Xiaoyue seemed to have something on her mind, she just didn’t want to tell Wang Xiao.
Before Wang Xiao was kidnapped, he had also studied at school for a few years, so he knew the situation of education in the country. Other than weekends and special holidays, schools definitely would not take holidays. Even if the principal were to suddenly die, the school would still have a normal course.
If this little sister wasn’t willing to say, then it must be because she had something on her mind. Perhaps, her little sister was so frightened by the harassment at school that she didn’t dare to go to school. But all these were Wang Xiao’s deductions, there was no solid evidence.
However, he would secretly investigate. If he discovered that someone was harassing his little sister, causing her to not dare to go to school, Wang Xiao would definitely teach them a lesson.
“Bro, let’s have a nice chat. I’ll cook a few more side dishes for you and dad.” Wang Xiaoyue entered the kitchen and started working again.
Wang Ping sat together with Wang Xiao, and he asked: “Wang Xiao, have you considered about the matter that I’ve told you?”
“What is it?” Wang Xiao pretended not to know.
“In our district, there is a girl with pretty good looks. She has a fixed salary and also has the strength. She can do heavy work or not. She’s really rare.” Wang Ping praised the girl endlessly.
Dad, what kind of thoughts are these? Also, there was the thought of an antique. Because people used to live very hard, they often had to do gravity work. So when a man looks for a woman, he has to see if she is healthy and strong.
When a woman chooses a man, she would have to see if the other party was strong or not, and it would be best if he could carry three to five hundred jin of weight on him. However, in the current society, the emphasis was on intelligence, not physical strength.
“Dad, I don’t want to get married yet, so don’t mention it.” Wang Xiao didn’t want to talk about it, what use was there in finding a strong woman?
His woman had to be both beautiful and talented, not the kind of man woman who had great strength.
“Kid, don’t be too picky. Maybe he doesn’t like you.” Wang Ping said unhappily.
Wang Xiaoyue’s cellphone’s ringtone sounded. Wang Xiao heard her answering the phone in the hall with a very low voice, and she was also very scared, as if she was threatened by someone.
Wang Xiaoyue whispered in fear: “I got it, I’ll come to school tomorrow to study.”
Due to the distance, Wang Xiao was unable to hear the other party’s voice. It seems like this little sister really did encounter some trouble. Someone must have threatened her, causing her to not dare to go to school.
F * ck!
Just who was it? Which Bastard would have such guts to even dare to threaten his own little sister?
Wang Ping did not notice Xiao Yue’s abnormality. Every day, he would spend all his time and effort on treating the clinic, paying very little attention to Wang Xiaoyue.
After getting up, Wang Xiao entered the kitchen. He saw his little sister holding her phone tightly, with her eyes closed. She was taking a deep breath, looking extremely terrified.
“Xiao Yue.” Wang Xiao called out.
“Wang Xiaoyue jumped in fright, but after regaining her senses, she regained her composure.” Brother, the oil smoke in the kitchen is too heavy, why don’t you go out? ”
“Xiao Yue, who called you just now?” Wang Xiao looked at his with his sharp eyes, and asked with a serious expression.
“No, no, I’m just a friend.” Wang Xiaoyue said in a hurry.
“Xiao Yue, are you alright?” Wang Xiao asked.
“Brother, I’m fine. How could I be okay?” Wang Xiaoyue shook her head.
“Little sister, if anything happens to you, you must tell me. I, your big brother, will uphold justice for you.”
