Chapter 758: The Big Fish Takes the Bait! (1/2)

Tong Fei was coming!

After half a year of cooperation, Bai Xiaofei proved with practical actions that he was a reliable partner. If nothing else, Tong Fei had pocketed quite an amount thanks to Bai Xiaofei, while he had never said a word out of line or asked a question he should not ask. He had been a businessman from the inside out.

The people around Bai Xiaofei were simply family members and servants, and he had even organized many blind dates for his ‘daughters,’ because of which he had received protests from Duan Yiyi and Zhu Nuo many times.

In a nutshell, Bai Xiaofei’s group had turned the fake family into a real existence with their acting. Currently, he was a rising star known even to empires. However, the fact that he had been living in a small town as a local tyrant prevented him from having direct contact with those bigshots. His range of activity was mostly around big merchant groups.

Bai Xiaofei planned to put an end to those kinds of days. He only had one year to complete the graduation mission, and the time had come to pull in the net.

In the evening, Tong Fei arrived with Heartless as agreed. For a big character like him to come to this small town, it was entirely to give Bai Xiaofei face.

“My brother, long time no see. You look energetic as ever!” Tong Fei came up and gave Bai Xiaofei a big hug.

“I’m nothing compared to you, Brother Tong, you’re too kind. I have two daughters who are at the age to start a family of their own. You are still in your prime!” said Bai Xiaofei humbly.

The two people then flattered each other all the way as Rui Mengqi led them to the banquet room.

“You’re all dismissed. We don’t need to be served today.” Bai Xiaofei dismissed everyone else after he sat down.

“Yes, Master.”

Rui Mengqi bowed and led the other maids to retreat. In the mansion, she and Xu Chen were not the only maids, otherwise, it would look too fake. Xu Chen’s group were all maid-in-waitings for the ‘madams’ and ‘young misses.’

Seeing Bai Xiaofei’s face suddenly darken, Tong Fei had a bad feeling. He turned to Heartless. “Heartless, you step out as well. Brother Bai and I are having a private talk tonight.”

Upon his order, Heartless retreated without delay. Their caution against Bai Xiaofei was currently infinitely close to zero. After all, who would have thought that someone would keep up an act for half a year just to get to their goal?

“There’s only the two of us now. Just say it, my brother,” Tong Fei said as he poured Bai Xiaofei a cup of wine. Compared with their first meeting, his tone was much more careful. Bai Xiaofei was his god of fortune, someone he could not afford to offend.

“Let us drink first!” Bai Xiaofei did not get into the topic. He raised his cup, drained it, and refilled. “A toast to our happy cooperation in the past six months!”

Seeing Bai Xiaofei drain another cup, Tong Fei could only follow.
