Chapter 27 Twenty-Five Boys
Mo Ruyan raised the corner of her lips slightly and said to the men beside her:
"Go get a bottle of water."
After saying this, Mo Ruyan made a specific gesture.
The man behind her immediately understood, turned around and went out, and came back a few seconds later with a bottle of water in his hand.
Wen Nianchu glanced at the packaging on the bottle of water.
It is a kind of lychee-flavored sparkling water that is currently popular in China, but she has not drunk it much.
"Miss Wen must be tired after playing all night."
Mo Ruyan smiled and unscrewed the bottle cap. The cap twisted but made no sound.
Wen Nianchu's gaze then dropped to the bottle of water that had been pushed in front of him. The ceiling light above the sofa area cast a fine light on the outside of the bottle, making the sparkling water look incredibly pure.
Wen Nianchu could even see the almost invisible bubbles at the bottom of the bottle slowly floating up.
The silent bottle cap... can only mean one thing.
This bottle of water had been tampered with long ago, and the other party's pretending to open the bottle was just a show for her.
Mo Ruyan: "Drink some water and moisten your throat before we talk?"
Mo Ruyan was still smiling. Her black manicure gently pressed against the bottle, pushing the water forward again, but her eyes held a look that refused to be rejected.
Wen Nianchu saw this and reached out to take the water bottle.
The cool touch penetrated the skin directly in an instant. From this simple touch, one could infer that the water must have been taken out of the freezer and left for a while.
The weather this summer is very hot. If it were a careless person, like myself when I was 18 years old, I would probably drink this bottle of ice water without caring about the consequences because of thirst.
However, the person in front of her clearly had bad intentions. He had just let her hear about the USB backup on purpose, and now he was kindly handing her a bottle of water.
Isn't this kind of drama a bit too crude?
Thinking of this, Wen Nianchu hesitated. Her fingers did not move at all. She just held the bottle of sparkling water tightly without letting go.
"Why, you don't dare to drink?" Mo Ruyan asked her.
Wen Nianchu frankly admitted:
"Yes, sister, I dare not."
"After all, my mother taught me since I was a child that I shouldn't drink from strangers."
Mo Ruyan was silenced by this answer: "..."
Wen Nianchu continued seriously:
"What if you put something good in it, knocked me out, and dragged me away to have my organs harvested?"
"I heard a kidney can be sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Liver and cornea are even more valuable..."
In this joke that Wen Nianchu had made up, Mo Ruyan looked at Wen Nianchu and said softly:
"Of course, a respectable person like my sister would not look down on such a small amount of money, right?"
The air stagnated for a moment.
Mo Ruyan stared at her, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then turned into a meaningful smile.
She leaned back on the sofa, completely relaxed, and crossed her legs, as if the previous test was just a game.
"Miss Wen, are all young girls nowadays as... alert as you?"
There was a hint of appreciation in her tone, and even a hint of regret.
According to the original plan, the substance in the bottle of water was enough to turn Wen Nianchu into an addict, and then they could mold her like a clay figure and take all the money out of her pocket.
But now, looking at the clever little girl in front of her, she suddenly felt that it would be a pity to completely destroy her like this...
Really, plans cannot keep up with changes, and even my heart is shaken.
Wen Nianchu put the water bottle back on the table, gently pushed it with his fingertips, and let it slide back in front of Mo Ruyan, smiling sweetly:
"This world is always a little unstable. Especially for a child like me who has lost his mother, I always take her words to heart and be more careful."
Mo Ruyan responded casually:
"Then Miss Wen is quite sympathetic."
Wen Nianchu said "hmm" softly, and then added, without any emotion in his tone:
"Not bad."
These two simple words made Mo Ruyan's half-joking sympathy choke in her throat and she couldn't spit it out anymore.
"Can we get to the official topic now?"
Wen Nianchu said with a smile.
Mo Ruyan took out a small glass bottle from her pocket, which contained a few crystal clear pills, glowing a strange green light under the light.
"Ever heard of 'Green Butterfly'?"
Mo Ruyan pushed the glass bottle in front of Wen Nianchu:
"One is worth half a year's salary for an average person, and we need a reliable channel to distribute the goods."
Wen Nianchu lowered his eyes and looked at the pill, his expression still calm, but the fingers on his left side were clasped together and curled up.
It is a new product.
This thing can be harmful.
She raised her eyes, her smile still lingering:
"Sister, is this thing... legal?"
Mo Ruyan sneered, and opened her red lips slightly:
"Legal? Little girl, the most profitable business in the world is never permitted by law."
Wen Nianchu pretended to hesitate, his eyes sweeping over Xie Yue, who was standing by the wall. His face remained expressionless, but his eyes darkened slightly.
——Is he worried about her?
She looked away, and asked with the innocence that was appropriate for her age:
"Then...if I agree, how much can I earn?"
Mo Ruyan smiled with satisfaction and stretched out her hand to indicate a number:
"This is the first batch of goods."
Wen Nianchu blinked:
"Wow, so many?"
She acted like a rich girl blinded by money, but she was calculating rapidly in her mind.
How can we find out where they trade?
Seeing that she was moved, Mo Ruyan struck while the iron was hot:
"As long as you give your consent, you can meet our partners at one o'clock tomorrow morning."
Wen Nianchu pretended to be excited:
"Really?"
Mo Ruyan did not doubt that Wen Nianchu's behavior was so different before and after. After all, few people could resist such a huge temptation.
However, such temptation is far from enough.
"We're going to trade supplies at Beijiang Road tomorrow night. It just so happens that the guy transporting the supplies has been arrested as an undercover agent. How about you take his place and deliver the goods?"
Mo Ruyan observed Wen Nianchu's expression. Seeing that she didn't say anything, she also made a light-hearted joke:
"You know, if this kind of important information were leaked to you, you would end up in dire straits if you were an undercover agent."
Wen Nianchu's face was serious:
"I know there's no future in being a traitor."
Mo Ruyan raised an eyebrow.
I feel that Wen Nianchu is very aware.
But she still took out her phone, opened a video, and tapped the screen lightly with her fingernails:
"That's what happens when you're undercover."
A gunshot was heard in the video.
A man with a dragon tattoo on his arm was holding a pistol:
"Tiaozi, how dare you betray the emperor? Huh? Are you fucking tired of living?"
The man called "Tiaozi" suddenly looked up, a startling light flashing between his swollen eyelids. He bared his bloodied teeth and violently spat a mouthful of blood foam at the other man:
"You... ahem... have destroyed so many families..." Countless blood gushed out from his forehead as he roared, "This rotten life of mine... in exchange for your hideout... is worth it!"
Another gunshot rang out, and the picture on the phone shook violently.
Wen Nianchu clenched his fists.
This was inconsistent with the information she learned in her previous life. Qin Ye had clearly said before that the man was a traitor and had dragged the bait into the water.
But just listening to these words, it doesn't seem like this person would betray me at all.
The person in the video spoke in a strong and powerful voice, even though he had just been shot in the arm.
It hurts just looking at it.
"If you harm a family, we will destroy their den!"
"If you kill one undercover agent, we'll have thousands of people following suit!"
