Not just Gongsun Qin alone, at this moment, everyone around, with eyes full of anticipation, were staring at Xu Fan without blinking.

One should know that a number like one billion is rarely heard even once or twice in a lifetime.

Yet here, two people were actually bidding such an extravagant sum for a single medicine bottle, which was truly terrifying.

Everyone looked at Xu Fan expectantly, their heartbeats quickening with excitement.

They wondered whether the young man would raise the price once again.

"Two billion."

"Holy shit!!!"

As if to stir up the crowd's emotions under their expectant gazes, Xu Fan indeed started competing with Ye Chongshan.

With a casual air, he just doubled the bid.

At two billion, a group of people couldn't help but glance over at the little medicine bottle.

Such a small bottle, even if it were filled with diamonds, couldn't possibly be worth so much...

"Ye Chongshan, will you continue?"

After stating his bid, Xu Fan narrowed his eyes and provocatively looked over at Ye Chongshan.

"You..."

Ye Chongshan was so angry his teeth were grinding!

Did this kid really dare to fight with him?

At two billion, he could indeed bid higher.

However, to spend such an outrageous sum on a medicine bottle was simply too unjust, right?

Unable to think of anything that could be inside worth such a high price, Ye Chongshan glanced at the bottle and then at Xu Fan, hesitating.

"Ye Chongshan, if you can't produce the money, then stop acting tough."

"You!"

While feeling uncertain, Ye Chongshan could suddenly hear Xu Fan's disdainful voice.

Ye Chongshan was so furious that steam seemed to be rising from his head!

He couldn't produce the money?

What a joke!

One-third of Hong Kong Island was his! A mere two billion was nothing!

This kid actually dared to mock him!

"Five billion!"

Blinded by rage, Ye Chongshan shouted out a number that stunned the entire venue!

Listening, people couldn't help but gasp!

Five billion, they would have to run their street stalls for several lifetimes to earn that much money...

Was this guy treating money like it was nothing?

For a moment, people whispered among themselves, and Xu Fan, observing Ye Chongshan's triumphant demeanor, couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

"You win, pay up."

"What?"

Ye Chongshan had thought Xu Fan would continue to compete, but who could have expected that after his five billion bid, the guy just stopped bidding?

This...

Thinking it all through, Ye Chongshan suddenly felt like he had been played by Xu Fan.

"Friend, since you shouted so loudly, don't just stand there, pay up."

Just as he hesitated about going back on his word, he saw the stall owner extending his hand.

"Holy shit, old man, you shouted so loudly just now, you better not be unable to pay."

"Exactly! Don't do something so shameless."

Right then, only the sound of people cursing could be heard.

Compared to five billion, being despised by these people was nothing, but still, Ye Chongshan took out his card quite obediently.

For some reason, he felt very uneasy about this street vendor.

It felt as if his heart would be crushed the instant he dared to disobey.

With practiced ease, the vendor swiped five billion from Ye Chongshan's card.

"That's settled, thanks."

It was unclear whether the vendor was thanking Ye Chongshan for the five billion, or for Xu Fan having driven the price up so high.

After speaking, the vendor walked out of the crowd.

"Xu Fan, what should we do..."

The medicine bottle had been bought by Ye Chongshan, and now the vendor had even left, leaving Gongsun Qin at a loss about what to do.

She suspected that this man surnamed Ye, who had snatched the medicine bottle from Xu Fan, would probably come to gloat...

"Hmm?"

Just as she was tensing up, she saw Ye Chongshan, followed by a group of people, quickly chasing after the direction the vendor had taken.

Gongsun Qin was taken aback—instead of humiliating Xu Fan, Ye Chongshan had gone after the vendor. What could he be planning to do?

"Follow them."

At that moment, Xu Fan pulled Gongsun Qin along and followed Ye Chongshan and his entourage without a sound.

It wasn't that Ye Chongshan didn't plan to mock him; he simply had more pressing matters to attend to at the moment.

Paying had been a matter of saving his own face.

Now that he had purchased the medicine bottle and did not even glance backwards, he was obviously planning to use force to make the vendor cough up the swallowed money.

More than the blood in the medicine bottle, Xu Fan was interested in the vendor's identity.

Following Ye Chongshan now was also a chance to see if he could lend a hand.

Trailing behind all the way, they quickly left the bustling market.

It turned out he had worried too much—the vendor was indeed no ordinary person. Even while being tightly pursued by Ye Chongshan and his gang, he still managed to vanish without a trace.

"Damn…"

What they lost was not just any person, but five billion; Ye Chongshan couldn't help cursing in pain at the thought.

"You two, have someone search the entire city later! We must catch this guy!"

Ye Chongshan gave orders to a few renegades from the Qing Gang who had sided with him, and then his gaze flicked over and saw Xu Fan following with the woman far behind him.

"Come here!"

Seeing Xu Fan, a scheme popped into Ye Chongshan's mind as he rolled his eyes.

A chill flashed through his eyes, and leading his group, he walked towards Xu Fan.

Being swindled out of five billion by that charlatan was primarily because that Xu bastard had led him into a trap!

Ye Chongshan looked at Xu Fan coldly, thinking that he would have Xu Fan pay back those five billion!

If he dared refuse, he would make Xu Fan regret it!

"Xu Fan, you dare to follow me?"

He wondered what was going through Xu Fan's mind; because of the chase for the five billion, Xu Fan had just narrowly escaped one disaster from him.

Instead of running for it, he actually had the nerve to follow?

Thinking this, Ye Chongshan couldn't help but give Xu Fan a cold look.

"Since you dare to come here, it would be remiss of me not to teach you a proper lesson!"

With a flicker in his eyes, Ye Chongshan signaled his henchmen, and they very tacitly surrounded Xu Fan and Gongsun Qin.

"Heh, Xu Fan, you actually dare to scam me out of five billion for some trash?"

"You'd best hand over that money obediently! Otherwise, don't blame me for not being polite with this woman!"

Not intending to just off Xu Fan like that, Ye Chongshan's sinister gaze shifted towards Gongsun Qin…

Ye Chongshan actually dared to consider Gongsun Qin as a target? Xu Fan's eyes couldn't help but narrow.

"Ye Chongshan, how could it be called a scam?"

"After all, it was you who willingly handed over the card to the vendor."

He wasn't lying; Xu Fan was quite curious to see what was so special inside that medicine bottle.

He had wanted to buy it, but the price of five billion was indeed beyond his expectations.

It was just that he had had someone else foot the bill for him...
