A few days later.
When Qin Bai and Fei Yangyang got off the plane, they were stunned by the sight before them.
The airport, which was bustling not long ago, is now filled with soldiers, the streets are deserted, and ruins are everywhere; the smoke of war has not yet dissipated.
Jade smiled and walked over when she saw the two of them.
"Qin, thank you so much this time, otherwise I might have..."
Qin Bai waved his hand: "We're all on the same side, there's no need to be so polite. If I were in danger someday, wouldn't you come to my rescue?"
Jade immediately straightened his expression: "Qin, if you really encounter danger, no matter where you are or who you are facing, the Duchy of Lambo will always stand by your side."
Qin Bai smiled and nodded; this was the result he wanted.
Whether they are drug lords or warmongers, if you talk to them about character, quality, or integrity, they simply don't have any.
But once they've formed a life-or-death bond, they lose all sense of justice.
Because you are the axiom.
Su Shiyin walked over and looked Qin Bai up and down curiously, tentatively calling out, "Strategist?"
"Hmm, Su Shiyin?"
This was the first time he had met this junior sister. She was pretty much as he had imagined, exactly the kind of gentle, virtuous, and capable woman who managed the household and raised children in ancient times.
If it weren't for this kind of personality, he probably would have killed that bastard Gu Zichen long ago.
Seeing her take out her phone and keep looking at it, Qin Bai flipped his hair in a very flamboyant way.
"Is he as handsome as in the photos?"
"Um... right?" Su Shiyin looked like she wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to, her face turning bright red.
"Hmm? What do you mean? Let me see the photos." Qin Bai seemed to have found the key to the matter.
As he walked over, the group of junior brothers standing behind Su Shiyin couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter, slapping their thighs.
When Qin Bai saw the photo, his face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, fine, Gu Zichen, you're going to screw over your strategist like this, huh? Just wait until I get back."
There's nothing wrong with the photo itself. No matter what flaws Qin Bai may have, he's definitely not bad-looking.
Women are all attracted to good looks. If he were even slightly ugly, all those little devils in the house wouldn't be chasing after him all over the world.
The photos were taken while he was sleeping, and there was more than one.
Gu Zichen probably didn't expect that a grown man like him would have no blind spots.
Since there are no blind spots, let's create them.
He photoshopped a lot of elements into the photo, including cats and dogs, but he even gave it a slime body.
It's hilarious.
The key point is that this guy meticulously edited every single picture, showing he really doesn't mind the trouble at all.
He Lingyu leaned over and looked at it for a long time, and even thoughtfully took out her phone to take pictures.
He nudged Qin Bai with his shoulder: "I didn't expect you to be so cute when you're asleep."
"Oh! Thanks for the compliment, but there's no reward."
Jade laughed and said, "Let's go check if those paintings are what you're looking for."
"good."
After getting on the bus, the group headed straight for the municipal building.
Once in the office, Jade pointed to the table and said, "Bruno has a lot of collections, they're all here. I'm not interested in these things, but you can take them all if you need them."
He Lingyu ran over and her eyes lit up when she saw the paintings.
Even disregarding the meaning behind these things, they could definitely be exchanged for a lot of small change.
Qin Bai remained calm: "No need. I only need to take back those seven paintings. You can handle the rest."
He Lingyu tugged at his sleeve, puzzled, and whispered, "Qin Bai, don't you know how much these paintings are worth? Let me tell you, at least..."
“I don’t really understand these things, but I know I should only take what I’m entitled to.”
"You... never mind, you blockhead."
He Lingyu stomped her foot in frustration. This person's personality was clearly that of a scoundrel, and he had no sense of rules or methods in his actions.
But sometimes they are very principled, which is really incomprehensible.
Jade's meaning was clear: he wanted to use the remaining paintings as payment for saving his life. Inviting those sect experts would have been extremely expensive, and these were what he was entitled to.
That jerk of a man, he stupidly rejected her outright.
Qin Bai waved to the experts behind him: "Please pick out those 7 paintings. With your eyesight, you should be able to tell the difference between the real and fake ones, right?"
"Mr. Qin, leave this matter to us."
Boiling Sheep sidled up to Jade: "Uncle, where's he?"
Jade sighed: "In the hospital."
"Is he injured?"
Jade pointed to the heart: "The problem here is that his adopted son, whom he has raised for so many years, has betrayed him, and he can't accept it right away."
Boiling Sheep frowned and asked, "What's going on with Bruno?"
"It's all been investigated. They were sent by another organization to take over Lambo. The incident back then was just an act."
Where is he?
Jade said calmly, "We killed him the day we caught him. Keeping him around would only lead to complications."
Boiling Sheep nodded in agreement: "That's right, otherwise the villains would live for too long."
Qin Bai laughed and said, "You probably have most of the power in Lanbo now, right?"
“That’s right, so our cooperation can begin.”
Qin Bai's eyes lit up. He needed money right now, and he was starting to feel a little embarrassed that he was always letting Fei Yangyang take advantage of him.
"We have several projects in Kyoto right now. Are you considering investing?"
Jade shook his head: "Don't ask me what I think, I just want to hear the numbers you want."
Qin Bai smiled even more broadly.
Negotiating partnerships with these nouveau riche is a breeze.
