Chapter 1735 - 1730: He Will Come Again

Hearing Hu Xiaobei speak so overbearingly, they immediately understood his choice. In that instant, they completely relaxed.

With Hu Xiaobei around, they really felt at ease...

Even if the sky were to fall, they would still feel quite comfortable.

Seeing them relax, Hu Xiaobei smiled faintly and looked off into the distance again. He knew this person had only come to test the waters today, and that very soon, he would come back. By then, he would be even harder to deal with.

But even if he was hard to deal with, Hu Xiaobei didn’t mind, because he knew his own strength extremely well.

...

Outside, the man who had just left Hu Xiaobei’s place appeared beside a black car.

"Interesting! This guy called Hu Xiaobei is a bit more confident than I expected, but that kind of confidence is meaningless. Very soon, I’ll crush all of his confidence, bit by bit."

After saying that, he quickly pulled open the car door and got in with a completely relaxed expression.

"Master, how come you’re back so fast? Don’t tell me the negotiation fell through?"

As soon as he sat down, he heard this soft, seductive voice speak up.

Turning his head, he saw a sultry beauty with long dark-purple hair looking at him in surprise.

She had obviously been trimming her nails earlier, so her hand was still holding that fair, slender little foot. The pose was insanely provocative.

He gave her a few scrutinizing glances, then spoke lazily, "Yeah, before I went, I thought I could wrap it up easily. But now it seems I still underestimated that Hu Xiaobei! He turned my proposal down flat. Looks like he’s a lot tougher than I imagined, way tougher!"

Hearing his sighing tone, she slid her fair little foot back into her platform sandal.

Once it was in place, she teased her silky long hair and said with a light laugh, "Master, the only reason that idiot is acting tough is because he doesn’t know how strong you are. I think you could’ve just shown a bit of your real strength in front of him. As long as you did that, he’d know what choice to make. After all, throwing an egg at a rock is totally pointless."

At her flattery, he shook his head lightly and said in a low voice, "Not necessarily. I get the feeling he isn’t blindly confident. There’s this faint sense of danger coming off him. He’s definitely a bit more capable than he looks, so I’ve decided to lie low for now."

"But Master, if we lie low, we can’t take over the whole market in a short time! If that happens, our entire plan will be put on hold!"

"I know that. That’s why I’ve decided to send someone tomorrow to test his strength. Once I get a read on his real power, I won’t have any more scruples."

"Everything will be as Master arranges."

The woman gave a soft laugh...

In truth, she was a bit dismissive inside.

She felt that testing him like this was completely unnecessary.

Even if that piece of trash had some strength, he really wasn’t worth all this repeated probing.

Because the gap in power was just too big...

This kind of repeated testing was purely a waste of precious time.

...

He’d already guessed what this woman was thinking, but he didn’t bother explaining...

Because he knew that even if he explained, she wouldn’t believe the other side was truly strong.

But in reality, the other man’s strength really was terrifying.

Earlier, once the talk broke down, he’d wanted to explode on the spot and use force to make Hu Xiaobei submit.

But at the last moment, he held back, because right as he was about to strike, he sensed a faint dangerous aura rippling off Hu Xiaobei.

He knew that if he really chose to fight, he might not win, because he totally couldn’t see through Hu Xiaobei.

Under those circumstances, he suppressed himself. He planned to first send someone to test Hu Xiaobei’s strength and see whether he was as formidable as he suspected.

If he wasn’t as strong as he imagined, then he could deal with him however he liked. But if his strength was truly monstrous, then that would be a whole other story.

...

"Xiaobei, little brother, do you think that guy will come again?"

"Of course."

Over here, after exchanging a glance, they voiced the question they cared about most.

They felt that Hu Xiaobei shouldn’t have let him go so easily just now, because that was basically letting a tiger return to the mountain.

Seeing their tense faces, Hu Xiaobei replied calmly, "Of course he will! He definitely won’t give up. I don’t know why he wants to monopolize the entire jadeite market, but I’m sure he won’t abandon that plan. So he’ll definitely come back again, because we’re his only stumbling block. If he wants to monopolize the market, he has to remove us."

They had already been pretty uneasy; after hearing Hu Xiaobei’s response, they got even more nervous. "Then what are we going to do? He’ll definitely ramp up his efforts against us."

"No need to be scared. Over the years, plenty of people have wanted to take me down, but not a single one has actually succeeded. I don’t believe he’ll be the exception. So relax."

After saying that, Hu Xiaobei rubbed his hands together and said with a bit of anticipation, "The red wine you gave me before is already breathed. I haven’t finished it yet. How about we all have a taste together now?"

"This..."

The two of them looked hesitant...

They wanted to keep him company and drink, but they felt this wasn’t exactly the best timing.

Seeing their hesitation, Hu Xiaobei spoke boisterously, "Alright, I’ll decide for you this time!"

With that, Hu Xiaobei directly grabbed their soft, fair little hands.

While they were still stunned, he charged straight toward his room.

Dragged along by him, they exchanged a glance, their eyes full of shyness.

Seeing how bashful they were, Hu Xiaobei smiled faintly.

The reason he was pulling them along like this was mainly to get them to snap out of that tense mood as quickly as possible.

...

While Hu Xiaobei and the two of them were drinking and chatting happily, the man who had left earlier arrived at a quiet lakeside.

He glanced at the shimmering surface of the lake, then carefully took a deep-purple Jade Flute from his chest.

Weighing it in his hand a couple of times, he quickly put the flute to his lips and blew.

As the Jade Flute’s sound spread out, ripples began to spread across the lake, and soon fish were leaping wildly from the water.

Seeing this strange sight, he wasn’t surprised at all. Instead, he kept on playing the Jade Flute in his hands.

Very soon, he saw a wooden boat slowly emerge from the thin mist in the middle of the lake. When he saw that slightly dilapidated boat, the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.

"If I hadn’t found out by accident, I’d really never have known this organization was so damn mysterious!"

Once he finished speaking, the wooden boat fully appeared before his eyes, and at the same time, he heard an indifferent voice say, "You summoned me—what do you want?"
