Seeing her frown, Jiang Ze was taken aback, then nodded with a wry smile: "Okay, I won't say it again."
After comforting him for a while, seeing that he was no longer as downcast as before, Li Ruo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The situation is urgent now. She needs to go back and investigate the announcement that the man mentioned earlier to see what exactly happened.
After saying goodbye to Jiang Ze, Li Ruo hailed a taxi on the roadside.
She sat in the back seat and couldn't help but pinch the bridge of her nose.
It has to be said that what has happened during this period has been truly terrible, one thing after another.
Just as Li Ruo was about to open her phone to see the announcement that was going viral online, a call from an unknown number suddenly appeared on her phone.
She frowned as she looked at the screen that only showed a number and not the caller's name.
The other party didn't seem to intend to hang up. Seeing that she wasn't answering, they quickly hung up and called back.
Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise and uncertainty flashed in Li Ruo's eyes.
After a moment of silence, she answered the phone. Soon, a man's voice came from the other end: "Do you want to know the relationship between Fu Zhiqing and Lyon?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo was stunned, her eyes widening slightly: "What did you say?"
"If you want, come to the Romantic Bar, K1, but remember you must come alone."
"Who are you? How did you..."
Before Li Ruo could finish speaking, the phone went dead.
Looking at the disconnected screen, her expression turned serious, and she fell into deep thought.
She was quite certain she had never heard this man's voice before.
But the other party clearly knew her contact information and even mentioned Lyon and Fu Zhiqing.
I suppose I know her to some extent!
Li Ruo stroked her phone, thinking it over and over, and finally decided to go. After all, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Moreover, she really wanted to know what the relationship was between Fu Zhiqing and Lyon.
after all……
The thought of the little guy's unusual expression when he mentioned Fu Zhiqing made Li Ruo's lips purse even tighter.
Having made up her mind, she had the driver turn around and head towards the bar.
At this moment, the streetlights are already on outside. The busy day is over, and the nightlife is just beginning. Those things that have been lurking in the darkness have also come out.
Soon, Li Ruo arrived outside the bar.
Looking at the colorful sign above her head, she frowned, but still went inside.
As soon as she entered the bar, the deafening music caught Li Ruo off guard.
Just then, a sharp-eyed bartender approached her: "Do you have a reservation, miss?"
"k1".
Upon hearing Li Ruo's words, the bartender nodded and immediately led her to a booth not far away.
As she got closer to the corner booth, the heavily dressed man sitting in the darkness came into view.
Seeing this, she paused slightly, but still took a few steps forward and sat down opposite the man.
"You've arrived."
Soon, the man raised his head slightly and said in a low voice.
Hearing that familiar voice, Li Ruo narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Where are the things?"
The man didn't hesitate and immediately took out an envelope and placed it on the table in front of him.
Looking at the thin envelope, Li Ruo was somewhat surprised and was about to take it when the man stopped her: "Five hundred thousand."
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo's face darkened, knowing that 500,000 was no small sum.
Thinking this, she immediately crossed her arms and adopted a negotiating stance: "How do I know if what you're telling me is worth 500,000? If it's not, wouldn't I be at a loss?"
"So what do you want?"
The man slightly raised his chin, and the lights from the DJ booth not far away shone on his chin, but his appearance was still unclear.
"I need to inspect the goods first, otherwise don't even think about me coming up with 500,000."
Li Ruo raised an eyebrow and tentatively asked in a low voice.
She thought the man would refuse, but to her surprise, he agreed as soon as she opened her mouth.
Suddenly, Li Ruo's heart skipped a beat.
She stared at the man for a moment, then picked up the envelope from the table.
But before she could pull it out, a handkerchief was suddenly covered to cover her mouth and nose.
Sensing something was wrong, Li Ruo's expression changed drastically, but the man opposite her remained completely unresponsive.
After inhaling a few breaths of the substance on the handkerchief, her pupils constricted, and then a wave of dizziness swept through her brain.
The next moment, the paper fell from her hand.
Upon closer inspection, the paper was completely blank.
However, Li Ruo did not see this scene. Soon, she was picked up by two men and dragged out of the bar.
A passing man saw this and kept whistling at it, his expression particularly ambiguous.
This scene caught the eye of a man who had just entered the room, causing him to pause abruptly, a hint of surprise appearing on his usually cold face.
Soon, Li Ruo was escorted by two men to the back of the bar.
A man with dyed blond hair and a nonchalant attitude had been waiting for some time.
Seeing the three people arrive, the blond-haired man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and rubbed his hands together vigorously.
The man in the hat who had spoken earlier stuffed the things in his pocket into the blond-haired man's hand and threw the woman he was holding at him.
"You know what to do. Also, give me the things tomorrow at the same time."
The blond-haired man nodded excitedly, then picked up Li Ruo and prepared to leave.
