Chapter 17:Old Man, Youre the Worst! (1/2)
Three Vajra Amulets would be worth 1.5 million in total, and he could even flip its price two or three times if he sold them to someone else. Plenty of the death-fearing wealthy would be interested in getting one.
Even a warrior like him would bite the bullet and buy a couple, even if it would burn a hole in his pocket. Money may be necessary, but his life was worth much more.
Ling Huang readily gave him three pieces like a truly generous man. While Lin Sheng knew that he did it partly to buy his favor, it was not a gift that he could easily turn down.
After all, that was 1.5 million worth of cold hard cash, which could very well be worth even more.
Ling Huang nodded, pleased. As a man of status, it was almost his second nature to buy the hearts of those who were useful to him.
What he admired the most about Lu Xuan was his attitude. While Lu Xuan needed money, he had his way of doing things and was unafraid to adhere to it.
While he didn't know if it was a prevailing attitude among Grandmasters, but speaking from his experience, Lu Xuan was equipped with the quality of a man set out to accomplish great things.
Lu Xuan saw money only as a tool. To him, money was only data—data that could help him better achieve his goals.
On the other end, Ling Fei's Ferrari quickly pulled up in front of Lu Xuan's neighborhood—the Xing Chen Bay Residence.
”Mr. Lu, I will be here to fetch you tomorrow. My safety will be in your hands. Please take care of me!”
Ling Fei stretched out her snow-white hand. Lu Xuan gently took it as they shook hands. It was warm.
”Got it. Just pick me up around this area tomorrow!” Lu Xuan nodded.
”Thank you for saving my brother today, Mr. Lu. Also, I haven't got the chance to thank you for saving my brother and me back then!”
Gratitude was apparent in Ling Fei's eyes.
The man in front of her had saved her once and her brother twice. It was equivalent to saving the Ling family twice. Also, he was capable, but all they found from their investigations were some very mediocre records.
As if he possessed these abilities overnight.
All these mysteries made her a little curious.
”Don't worry about it. Your family has given me a gift in return. We simply took what we need from each other!”
Lu Xuan pointed at the red wooden box.
”No matter what, those material gifts could not possibly express how grateful I am. Thank you!” Ling Fei thanked him solemnly.
To that, Lu Xuan simply nodded and smiled, ”Bring some of the ten Vajra Amulets I sold President Ling on you. They might come in handy!”
”I will!”
Ling Fei thought about his words and also felt that it was necessary. Although Lu Xuan was powerful and mysterious, that overseas organization might use firearms, heavy or light, if they decided to strike again. It was always better to be safe than sorry.
Lu Xuan stepped out of the vehicle and watched Ling Fei leave. Then, he strode into the Residence alone.
However, he felt that the way the guards looked at him was a little strange. The security guards stationed at the entrance looked at him with eyes of awe, but at the same time, with a tinge of jealousy and resentment.
He was bewildered.
Lu Xuan did not know that the guards had thought up of an unprecedented and phenomenal love-triangle in their minds. As the ultimate gigolo of their dreams, Lu Xuan had made it to the pinnacle of life.
Upon seeing how he had beautiful girls chauffeuring him around, they could not help but feel deeply impressed.
As he walked through the garden within the neighborhood, a sudden ringing cut through the air. He pulled out his phone and read the caller ID. It was Mother Empress.
”Hello? Brat, how was the blind date? Don't you dare mess this up with your tricks again! Your mother sacrificed her dignity to find you a chance like this!” The first thing Liu Wanrong did was to threaten Lu Xuan, lest he returns to his old ways of stirring trouble just to avoid these arranged dates.
