Chapter 653 Someone You Can't Afford to Offend? Heh.



We met at Pengfei. From the day we met, he was always taking me out to dinner, sending flowers, cakes, afternoon tea, and snacks to my office. It made me feel so ashamed in the Pengfei office. Everyone around me laughed when they saw me.

Xing Baohua nodded and said, "He's still shamelessly persistent. But this trick works very well; it tells everyone that you're the one he's pursuing, so don't even think about it."

"That's right! I've given away all the flowers. I've also shared the food and drinks with my colleagues. Look at my pager, it's full of messages inviting me to dinner."

"Do you think he'll follow you here?" Xing Baohua asked.

"I didn't tell anyone where I was going! How did he know?"

No sooner had Jin Xin finished speaking than Secretary Dong came over to report that a man named Bai Fei from the Investment Promotion Bureau had requested a meeting.

Xing Baohua turned to look at Jin Xin and saw that Jin Xin looked shocked and had a hint of fear in his eyes.

“Tell them that my schedule is packed and we won’t be able to meet for another month,” Xing Baohua told Secretary Dong.

After Secretary Dong left, Jin Xin asked in a panic, "How did he know I was here?"

Xing Baohua lit a cigarette and said, "There are only two possibilities: either they are abusing their power for personal gain, or they have been keeping an eye on you."

"Then what should I do? How about I stay at your place tonight, and we get things done so he can give up on that idea?"

Xing Baohua looked at her speechlessly. What kind of time is this to still be lusting after him? She has no sense of propriety at all!

Why are you staring at her like that?

Perhaps feeling uncomfortable under Xing Baohua's speechless gaze, Jin Xin spoke with a hint of petulance.

“If you keep teasing me like this, I’m going to run away too,” Xing Baohua said.

"This is boring. Help me think of a way to get rid of that guy surnamed Bai."

"How could I dare to think of that! You're using me as a shield! They've already come all this way, so they're definitely targeting me! Someone of his status and position is not someone a small businessman like me would dare to offend."

"Can't you be serious for once?"

"That's already quite proper. If it were me, I would have washed you clean, wrapped you in a blanket, and sent you to him."

These words made Jin Xin roll his eyes again in anger. The more he tried to be serious, the more unserious this guy became.

"Looks like I can't count on you. I'll just keep running and find somewhere to hide. I heard you have a big villa in Japan?" Jin Xin said.

"yes!"

"Can I borrow it?"

“Sure, but you need to think this through. If he can find me here, he can find me there too. You can’t escape him either,” Xing Baohua advised.

"Don't you have some people over there? You can at least scare him a little, right?"

"Do you really think they're stupid? Just think about it and you'll know it was my doing. Dealing with him in Hong Kong or Japan would have had the same result. If you want to deal with him, just lead him to a place where their influence can't reach."

Jin Xin smiled and sat down in front of Xing Baohua, grabbing his arm and saying, "Quickly help me think of a place where we can deal with him."

"I have no grudge against the Bai family! There's no need for me to get involved. Besides, they could kill me with just a few words. Would I dare?"

As she spoke, she pushed Jin Xin's arm away, stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the scenery outside. In fact, Xing Baohua was a little confused. Although she spoke very coldly, she was a little soft-hearted.

To be honest, the Bai family is truly not someone to mess with, and they belong to completely different worlds. Don't think that just because Xing Baohua has some money now, he's become arrogant and doesn't know who he is anymore.

He's fine against people of the same level, but against someone of a higher level, it's like a dimensional reduction attack if they want to touch him.

His relationship with Jin Xin was that of acquaintances, a joking collaboration.

Is it worth offending a powerful family for someone like that?

Since you're already a businessman, being ruthless is a basic lesson; you can't make money without being ruthless!

Jin Xin watched Xing Baohua's retreating figure without saying anything, and walked out with the clatter of her little leather shoes.

After hearing the door close, Xing Baohua sighed, turned around, walked to his desk, made a call to the guards, and sent two people to follow Jin Xin and ensure his safety.

When I got off work and arrived at the villa, I saw a car parked not far from the villa entrance. Perhaps seeing Xing Baohua's convoy approaching, several people got out of the car and waved to the convoy.

A few people from the escort team got off the lead car. Except for one person who went forward to negotiate, the others became wary.

A short while later, the guard who had been negotiating with Xing Baohua came to his car and reported, "The other party is a Chinese man surnamed Bai. The two people with him are from the security department. I have already checked their identification. Do we need to verify their identity information?"

Xing Baohua waved his hand and said, "Please come to the courtyard in a moment."

Xing Baohua went upstairs to change her clothes and came to the courtyard, where the man named Bai Fei was drinking tea.

Upon seeing Xing Baohua arrive, he didn't even get up, saying, "Your tea tastes much worse. I'll get you some authentic tea later."

Xing Baohua smiled and said, "I wouldn't dare. It would be a waste for me to drink it. I'm not a refined person. I can't do tea tasting. I'm satisfied with just a little tea flavor. It's like cigarettes. As long as there's smoke, it's good cigarettes for me."

"He really is a roughneck! He speaks very bluntly," Bai Fei said.

"Hehe, excuse me. What brings you here today? If it's business, let's follow the proper procedures and have a proper chat when I have time. If it's personal, you've come all the way to my house, so I'll reluctantly spare some time to talk to you." Xing Baohua said with a half-smile. Since the other party saw him as a rough man, he would show him what roughness was.

Bai Fei glanced at Xing Baohua sideways, smiled disdainfully, and said, "We're not going to talk about business right now. If we're going to talk, you'll have to come to me, not me coming down here."
