Chapter 388: 219 Playing Tricks (Second Update)

The other party watched as the car door opened, their eyes suddenly shining brighter, fixating on the car door, waiting for someone to get out. But then, they realized the car door had closed again!

Brother Wang was very dissatisfied, as it was the first time he’d encountered such a situation, his face instantly turned very ugly, and he demanded, "What the hell do you mean by this?"

No one got out of the car, only Chen Qiao poked his head out with a smile and said, "Don’t get me wrong, don’t get me wrong, we’re just here to ask for directions. We were planning to come in and rest our feet, but since you have so many rules, let’s forget it. Besides, we came here because we’re looking for someone to draw us a roadmap, and we can offer a reward."

Nobody expected them to suddenly change their tune. Now, not only was Brother Wang’s face unsightly, but the faces of the two young girls also turned abnormal. The younger girl, unable to contain her anger, snapped, "Hey! What the hell is going on with you people? Wasn’t it agreed that you’d come in as guests? Isn’t it just a routine check? What’s there to worry about?"

Chen Qiao, still grinning, wasn’t affected in the least, and instead said very understandingly, "We didn’t want to trouble you, is that so wrong? Originally, we wanted to take advantage and come over for a free meal, but seeing that there are not a few people here, and the crops don’t look so good, the harvest must not be great, right? How could we have the face to stay and freeload a meal."

The younger girl wanted to say something more, but the slightly older girl beside her pulled her back forcefully, then tearfully looked at Chen Qiao, "I’m sorry, we had wanted to invite you over as guests, I didn’t expect it to turn out like this. I don’t know where you all came from, but I know, you must think our place is too small and backward, looking down on our country place, I have overstepped."

The moment she started crying, Chen Qiao’s expression sank. However, he didn’t dare make any rash moves, he was waiting for Fang Yuxin’s instruction. After all, it was Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye who had decided to come here in the first place, and he didn’t dare to mess it up.

Fang Yuxin gave him no new instructions, and as Chen Qiao was growing anxious, he saw from the mirror that Bai Ye had rolled down the window and poked his head out. His emergence made the silently crying girl’s eyes brighten, her tears flowing even faster, her dewy eyes watching Bai Ye intently, making it hard for anyone to refuse.

Bai Ye was rather annoyed inside, only showing his face because he had received a message from Fang Yuxin. If not for that, he couldn’t care less about the affected woman across from him!

But since Fang Yuxin had told him to keep acting, he had no choice but to reluctantly cooperate despite his reluctance. He glanced at the girl indifferently, without any particular emotion, and simply stated, "As long as you give us the roadmap, the reward is yours to name."

He had the demeanor of someone unrestrained by money.

Seeing his attitude, the other party’s eyes suddenly became greedier. Brother Wang let out a cold laugh and disdainfully said, "We can give you the roadmap, but as for the price... I’m afraid you can’t afford it!"

They were clearly preparing to make an outrageous demand, and Bai Ye’s expression chilled: "Just say it!"

Brother Wang then pointed at the SUV Bai Ye was in, smiling proudly, "I quite like your vehicle, I don’t ask for much, just this car. As long as you agree, we can give you the roadmap quickly."

That man really had the nerve to ask! It was just a roadmap, not some treasure map, and he outright demanded his customized vehicle!

Such a condition was, of course, unacceptable to Bai Ye. But Fang Yuxin wanted him to play the role of the nouveau riche, and despite his unwillingness, he still said, "Just give me an additional hundred liters of gasoline, or a hundred kilograms of food, and the car is yours."

As soon as these words came out, Brother Wang and his men all changed their expressions. They hadn’t expected Bai Ye to agree to such an utterly unreasonable request, and even less did they expect Bai Ye to dare to set conditions with them! He even dared to ask them for gasoline and food! Both were currently in short supply!

These people’s faces turned very ugly, but Bai Ye looked as if he hadn’t noticed anything, watching them with unflappable calm.

This reaction from Bai Ye completely infuriated the other side. In their eyes, Bai Ye and his people were like naïve sheep that had been tricked into being slaughtered; they were only supposed to meekly be taken for what they had. But now, they were daring to set their own conditions!
