105 Discussion (1/2)
[Jiangcheng International Hotel]
A loud piercing ringtone sounded.
”Old Housekeeper, you better have something proper to report. Otherwise, you'll get it from me,” Hua Haifeng said, furious that he had been interrupted.
A somewhat old-sounding voice replied on the other end: ”Master, that Xiao Luo has appeared!”
”Xiao Luo? That's great. I've been trying to find him for almost a month. It's about time he showed up!” said Hua Haifeng, suddenly on alert. Anxiously, he added, ”I asked you to find someone to cripple one of his arms. Has the matter been attended to?”
”Well, about that…not yet.”

”Since the job isn't done, give me back the two-hundred thousand! Not a single cent less. If even one cent is missing, I will skin you alive!” Hua Haifeng roared. He hung up the phone, gasping for air.

”Have you made up your mind yet about whether or not you are accepting the offer?” Zhang Dashan pressed. He was even more anxious than Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo raised his eyebrows and answered, ”Partially yes. But partially no as well.”
”What the heck! I don't understand what you're saying at all. Can you not speak in riddles?” Zhang Dashan replied, visibly dazed.
”Don't worry about it. Just wait here for me to come out.”
Then, Xiao Luo turned and walked into the tall building in front of him.
