Chapter 259: The Unscrupulous Profiteers

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation      Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yan Ruo pondered for a moment and thought that another secret of Bai Lin’s was revealed.

Every time he got to know more about her, it made him even happier and more fascinated by her.

Li Xuan was like a lackey as he followed behind Bai Lin and asked her all sorts of questions.

“Xiao Lin, Lin-jie, tell me, did you learn Hong Quan?”

When Bai Lin ignored him, he turned to the other side and asked, “My grandfather loves watching martial arts. Can you give me the contact information of that master? I promise I won’t disturb him. I’ll just let him have a chat with my grandfather!”

“He won’t talk to you. That old man’s as stubborn as a bull. If you go to him like this, he’ll send you flying 20 meters away with two broken bones!” Bai Lin deliberately exaggerated the consequences to scare Li Xuan. In the end, Li Xuan shamelessly begged her.

“Then, hell definitely come if you help me invite him, right? I beg you, my good sister, my good boss, please help me just this once. My grandfather’s always looked down on me, and I want to make him happy for once. I’ll try my best to get you whatever you want, okay?”

Li Xuan pulled a long face. Li Yan’s matter previously had already made his grandfather extremely angry. If he could not give a decent gift at the old man’s birthday banquet this year to please him, it would be terrible.

Bai Lin wondered why did she not feel that Li Xuan was as annoying as a mosquito before? Her eyes flitted around and she had an idea.

“Get me a house in Linghe No. 1, one that’s close to San-ge’s house. I can even let him do a demonstration at your grandfathers birthday banquet and then play a few rounds of mahjong with your grandfather. How about it? It’s worth it, right?” Bai Lin had the expression of a profiteer.

She had not forgotten that she wanted to buy a house in her San-ge’s villa residential area. Now that the money for the house had come to her door, it would be a waste not to take it.

Li Xuan’s face fell even more. Why was this girl asking for such an exorbitant price?

“Young miss, sell me and see if I’m worth a house in Linghe No. 1…”

“Don’t you still have your brother? Just tell your big brother that you both will give this birthday gift together. When the time comes, won’t you have the final say on how much the gift costs? Would your dad not allow you both to give such a good gift to your grandfather?” Bai Lin had only said half of what she meant, but Li Xuan completely understood it.

She was asking him to scam his elder brother and even his father of their money!

However, what Bai Lin said was not unreasonable. In this way, he could also get a small profit from it. This profit would come from the Li Family and be given to him, another Li Family member, to spend. There was nothing wrong with that.

The two of them looked at each other—the big profiteer and the small profiteer chuckled and made a deal.

The Hong Kuen master who had been traded as a birthday gift went “Achoo!”.

As Yan Ruo listened to the conversation between Li Xuan and Bai Lin, he once again discovered another side to Bai Lin—her love for money and petty gains. He felt that this Bai Lin was extremely cute and secretly added a lot of contents to his confession plan; for example, he would give her his black cards for her to swipe as she pleased…

Zheng You looked at them talking and laughing, and the hatred in her heart grew stronger. At the same time, she thought that Bai Lin would only have a few more hours to live no matter how much she enjoyed herself, and she felt much better.

It was just that… why was Jing Shan not following her around?

Zheng You did not think too much about it. After all, she no longer wanted the good-for-nothing Jing Shan. It would save her a lot of trouble if he could get out of her face on his own.

The few of them did a simple search in the research institute’s compound. There were indeed many plants that looked abnormal. Zheng You was even frightened by a white rat that was bigger than a human hand that suddenly appeared, causing her to scream.

However, they did not see any overly strange animals. There were only some broken animal limbs and small patches of fur scattered everywhere.

Their main purpose was to find zombies, but they had seen very few clues about zombies outside, let alone any living ones.

Although they were called zombies, they were actually staff members in disguise. As for the overly bloody animal limbs, they were either made using simulation technology or props.

They came to the main entrance, which was the only entrance to the research institute. It was likely to be the only exit by the look of things now.

Yan Ruo took the lead and walked in front. He tried to push the door and it actually opened very easily. This was surprising.

When the few of them saw that the door could be opened directly, they all felt a little relaxed. However, Yan Ruo frowned slightly. If no one had stepped in in the past three years, it should not have been opened so easily.

In any case, the production team would set up a checkpoint or some mechanism here.

Yan Ruo’s eyes turned cold. He exchanged a look with Bai Lin. They had the same thought—someone had been here first before them..
