Chapter 333 Long-term Cooperation

The next day.

Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou went out after breakfast.

The place Niu Guoxing was talking about was a big mountain outside Zhoushan County.

There is an abandoned temple at the highest point of the mountain. Now is the time to go to work or work.

Gu Xizhou, Su Nanzhi, and Niu Guoxing didn't meet anyone along the way.

Although Su Nanzhi knew Niu Guoxing's identity, she still pretended to be confused.

"Lin Sen, didn't you say yesterday that you would take me somewhere?" Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, ensuring that Niu Guoxing, who was walking a few steps behind her, could hear it.

"Why is Niu Guoxing here too?"

Gu Xizhou quickly observed the terrain with his eyes. When he heard Su Nanzhi's words, a smile flashed in his eyes, but his words were full of annoyance.

"Just follow me if I tell you to. I can't sell you out. What nonsense are you talking about?"

As he said this, he gave Su Nanzhi a look.

Su Nanzhi received it immediately, she stopped and turned around to leave

"Lin Sen, you didn't have this attitude yesterday. I'm not going."

"You and Niu Guoxing go alone."

As she said this, she walked past Niu Guoxing and was about to leave.

The path leading to the abandoned temple on the top of the mountain has been overgrown with weeds because no one has walked on it for a long time. Only one person can pass through it.

Before Su Nanzhi could take a step, someone grabbed her.

When she turned around, she met Niu Guoxing's half-smile.

"Comrade Su, now that we're here, why don't we take a look at our destination?"

When Niu Guoxing grabbed her wrist, Su Nanzhi got goose bumps on one hand and she pulled her hand back.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Xizhou threw the sign in his hand into the grass beside him, walked forward and pulled Su Nanzhi to his side.

He didn't like the look in Niu Guoxing's eyes when he looked at Su Nanzhi.

When Su Nanzhi was pulled to Gu Xizhou's side, she felt relieved in her heart, but she still pretended to be angry on her face.

"Where are you taking me?"

Gu Xizhou half-hugged Su Nanzhi in his arms and continued walking up the mountain with her, coaxing her and saying, "It's a good place anyway."

Su Nanzhi took advantage of the situation and pretended to be fooled. Although she was still complaining, she walked up the mountain honestly.

But during this process, she would "act up" from time to time, either because it was too hot or because she was tired, and she always had to stop to rest.

Niu Guoxing, who was following behind the two of them, was not affected by her at all, and had a hypocritical smile on his face from beginning to end.

Although Su Nanzhi was a little reluctant, the few people finally arrived at the abandoned temple on the top of the mountain after three hours.

Before it was abandoned, the abandoned temple must have been very popular. The abandoned temple covers a large area, and there are several headless Buddha statues three or four meters high standing in the lobby. However, because of the silence, it looks a bit scary at the moment.

Su Nanzhi was a materialist in her previous life, but after her rebirth in this life, she felt a little scared when she saw the temple. She couldn't help but get closer to Gu Xizhou.

But soon after seeing three figures walking out from behind the abandoned Buddha statue, Su Nanzhi's already small fear was instantly replaced by surprise. She quickly lowered her head to hide the thoughts in her eyes.

"Lin Sen, the good place you told me about is just a dilapidated temple?"

She pretended to be angry and pulled Gu Xizhou away.

Niu Guoxing stood at the door, blocking the entrance tightly.

"Comrade Su, we're already here. Where else are you planning to go?"

At this moment, there was undisguised malice on Niu Guoxing's face.

Su Nanzhi seemed to have just realized what was happening. She looked at Gu Xizhou with a frightened look on her face and asked, "Lin Sen, what do you mean by this?"

"And who are they?"

As she spoke, she pointed her finger at the three people who came out from behind the Buddha statue.

Gu Xizhou didn't expect that Su Nanzhi was much calmer than he thought, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, after seeing the three people walking out from behind the Buddha statue, his heart was lifted again.

The three men all looked to be in their early thirties, with ordinary looks and not very tall, but Gu Xizhou quickly determined from their footsteps and breathing that they were all martial artists.

He was alone against four strong young men, and his chances of winning were unknown. If they were armed, then...

Gu Xizhou suppressed his anxiety, pulled Su Nanzhi to his side, and looked at Niu Guoxing.

"Niu Guoxing, I have brought Su Nanzhi here as you asked. Will you give me the money as we agreed upon, and introduce me to your leader?"

Although he said that, Gu Xizhou's eyes were already on the man standing in the middle.

The man in the middle has fairer skin, wears a white shirt, and looks gentle and refined. When he walks on the street, you would think he is a teacher from some school.

The two men beside him had dark skin, and one of them had a scar between his eyebrows. They looked ferocious and you wouldn't dare to mess with them if you walked on the street.

Niu Guoxing didn't say anything, and the man in the middle nodded at him.

Niu Guoxing, who was standing at the door, immediately stepped forward and started to search Gu Xizhou.

Gu Xizhou seemed to be used to it and spread out his hands cooperatively.

Niu Guoxing quickly finished the search and then looked at Su Nanzhi.

Su Nanzhi seemed to have dressed up carefully for today's date. She was wearing a long floral dress. After several hours of climbing, the hem of her dress was stained with a lot of stains. Coupled with her sweat, she looked extremely disheveled.

Seeing Niu Guoxing looking at her, Su Nanzhi immediately crossed her arms with a defensive look on her face, hid behind Gu Xizhou, and looked at him vigilantly.

"Niu Guoxing...what do you want to do?"

Before Niu Guoxing could say anything, Gu Xizhou stepped forward and pulled Su Nanzhi to his side.

Without saying a word, he roughly touched Su Nanzhi's body with both hands as he had said to her before. The fabric stuck to her body, and it was obvious at a glance that she was not carrying anything.

"Did you see it clearly?"

Gu Xizhou looked insulted, and Su Nanzhi was trembling all over.

Niu Guoxing curled his lips and said nothing, just looked at the man with fairer skin.

The fair-skinned man frowned slightly and looked at the lower half of Su Nanzhi's skirt, obviously not satisfied with Gu Xizhou's actions.

A hint of anger flashed in Gu Xizhou's eyes. "Su Nanzhi is my wife after all. Although I love money, I am not a man if I watch my wife taking off her clothes in front of you."

As he said this, he pretended to be angry and pulled Su Nanzhi to walk outside.

Just as they turned around, a voice interrupted them.

"Mr. Dao, I don't think a woman can cause any trouble."

The person who spoke was the scarred man standing next to the fair man.

As if convinced by the scarred man, the fair-skinned man waved his hand and said, "Brother Lin, this is your first time here, so we'll give you some face."

Just as Gu Xizhou was breathing a sigh of relief, he felt Su Nanzhi holding his hand slightly harder.

There was a hint of thought in his eyes, but his face remained expressionless.

Gu Xizhou gave the fair-skinned man a thumbs-up and said, "Mr. Dao is worthy of being the boss. He knows how to adapt better than some people."

There was a flash of anger in Niu Guoxing's eyes, but he still maintained a smile on his face.

Mr. Dao smiled politely and returned the compliment, saying, "You look more imposing than Aaron."

As he said this, he looked Gu Xizhou up and down. He looked like a decent human being, but the greed in his eyes ruined everything.

But if I weren't greedy, I wouldn't have become a dog of the Sakura Country.

"Everyone calls me Mr. Island."

Mr. Dao extended his hand towards Gu Xizhou.

Gu Xizhou seemed to think for a moment before slowly extending his hand towards him.

Su Nanzhi glanced at Mr. Dao's wrist, a hint of thought flashed across her eyes, and she just held Gu Xizhou's hand a little tighter.

"Mr. Dao, I have come to the appointment with my wife as agreed with Niu Guoxing, and Niu Guoxing also introduced me to you."

He paused slightly, his tone tentative, "Does this mean that we can cooperate long-term in the future?"
