Chapter 331: Chapter 355, I Have a Gun Too

"Fang Yi, if you keep smirking and slick-talking, I think there’s no need to continue this conversation," Lin Xueru’s tone suddenly turned cold.

So this was the bottom line, huh...

Fang Yi cracked a slight smile, but wasn’t the slightest bit intimidated by Lin Xueru’s words—after all, he wasn’t brought up in fear.

"Alright, then let’s get down to business, shall we? I wonder what you want to talk about with me," Fang Yi said.

"About that little girl."

"Little girl? What little girl?" Fang Yi feigned ignorance.

"I don’t want to see you playing dumb. To be clear, it’s that little Lin Lin. Hand her over to me," Lin Xueru got straight to the point.

"And then?"

"I’ll consider the billion I spent as a benefit to you," Lin Xueru stated.

The Lin Family was a merchant dynasty, and in Moon City, they were one of the four major families because of their substantial assets. Not to mention the Lin Family in Tianjing—if one were to talk about assets, the wealth of the Lin Family would probably be enough to scare people to death.

A billion, to Lin Xueru, an heiress of the Lin Family, truly amounted to nothing. But Fang Yi could still deduce the importance of little Lin Lin to the Lin Family, and especially to the deadly beauty before him—it was of immense significance.

"A billion, huh..." Fang Yi stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "That’s definitely a lot of money, but, Miss Lin, you asking me to just hand over a little girl to you, out of the blue—I really couldn’t do that."

Lin Xueru’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp light flashing through them, "It should be simple for you."

Fang Yi replied, "But she’s just a child, I can’t bring myself to do it."

Lin Xueru stared at Fang Yi, who showed neither shrinkage nor fear under her gaze. After a moment, Lin Xueru said, "Then let’s change the deal, tell me about her origins and background, and I won’t haggle over that billion."

"That’s easy, I know all about it," Fang Yi clapped his hands.

A hint of triumph inadvertently revealed itself in Lin Xueru’s eyes.

Fang Yi got up and sat down next to Lin Xueru. Lin Xueru frowned slightly but ultimately did not move away, while Fang Yi leaned in a bit closer and whispered mysteriously, "I’ve heard... that this little girl is Lin Tianxiao’s illegitimate daughter."

If there’s an opportunity to watch for free, why not look? And looking makes you want to watch more. Passing up an opportunity is foolishness.

At the same time, a sharpness flashed in Lin Xueru’s phoenix eyes. Upon hearing Fang Yi’s words, she suddenly realized—Fang Yi was toying with her. The next moment, Lin Xueru suddenly felt two fiery gazes fixed upon her chest.

Upon a closer look, indeed...

Lin Xueru sneered, "Fang Yi, you’re not being very cooperative."

Fang Yi said, "Not at all."

Lin Xueru responded, "Is that so? I already know all the things you’ve said! And... those eyes of yours have had enough, right? Do you want me to dig them out for you?"

Fang Yi replied with a smile, "I still need these eyes to see things, so it’s probably best not to dig them out just yet."

Lin Xueru said, "But you know the saying, refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit later, don’t blame me then."

Suddenly, Lin Xueru stood up and walked over to a liquor cabinet, while Fang Yi remained lying on the couch, still smiling. Lin Xueru had her back to Fang Yi, and when she opened the cabinet, she took something out.

Not a bottle of liquor, but a handgun.

The dark muzzle pointed straight at Fang Yi.

Fang Yi raised an eyebrow, his smile unchanged as he spoke with a laugh, "Miss Lin, what do you mean by this? You should know that our country has very strict gun control. When I came up, a waiter was aware, your actions... put me in a difficult position."

Lin Xueru said, "Are you scared?"

Fang Yi rubbed his hands together, an air of ’shyness’ in his voice: "Scared? Perhaps a little. But I feel what you’re doing is quite improper."

Lin Xueru tilted her slightly pointed chin upwards, proudly revealing her haughtiness.

"I have my limits," Lin Xueru stated indifferently.

Thump!

Just then, a clock hanging on the wall of the suite suddenly chimed, breaking the silence of the luxurious suite. The next moment, Fang Yi clearly saw a faint smile appear on Lin Xueru’s beautiful and charming face.

As if it were a gamble, she had already won.

At this point, Fang Yi was truly bewildered. He really didn’t understand why Lin Xueru was so happy; could it be that this woman had suddenly gone mad?

"Time’s up," Lin Xueru declared.

Fang Yi scratched his head, then suddenly thought of something. He picked up the cup of milk from earlier and sniffed it near his nose, finally understanding.

"Figured it out?" Lin Xueru asked.

"Uh-huh, I’ve figured it out. I just don’t know what kind of drug you gave me," said Fang Yi nonchalantly.

"Knockout Drug, enough to knock out a large bull," Lin Xueru stated proudly.

Suddenly, Fang Yi sighed and said, "Miss Lin, the depth of your scheming is something I’ve never seen before."

Fang Yi wasn’t making an unfounded statement; he was telling the truth.

As Lin Xueru said, the half cup of milk from earlier was laced with the Knockout Drug, enough to knock out a bull, which demonstrated that her invitation for him to come during the day was with ill intent.

After Fang Yi entered the room and drank the half cup of milk on the coffee table, that was all within Lin Xueru’s predictions. But what if Fang Yi didn’t drink it? It wasn’t certain, but Lin Xueru had guessed that there was at least a fifty percent chance he would drink that half cup of milk.

Now that Fang Yi had indeed drunk it, it showed that Lin Xueru’s calculation was step by step to this point. Even Fang Yi, thinking back now, felt a chill in his heart—it’s likely that most men would have already been played to death by her.

However, Fang Yi really wasn’t an ordinary man. It wasn’t that Fang Yi had extraordinary talents but that he was naturally resistant to poison. Back when he was at the Human Level, Fang Yi already had a certain immunity to poisons. At the Earth Level, the True Qi within his body could be said to automatically cleanse impurities from within him.

Hence, when the Knockout Drug mixed with the milk was ingested, Fang Yi felt almost nothing. If Lin Xueru had not lost her patience and taken the initiative to reveal it, Fang Yi might not have known that he had been calculated by this charming, mature woman.

Grandma’s bear, an aunt might endure, but an uncle can’t bear it!

Fang Yi’s mind began to ponder. What method should he use to deal with this woman? Just then, Lin Xueru spoke out.

"You... you..." Lin Xueru had to speak out because... Fang Yi showed absolutely no signs of passing out.

"You’re wondering why I haven’t immediately collapsed, right?" Fang Yi guessed the woman’s thoughts.

"Yes!"

"Hehe, I’m quite surprised too. Maybe I’m just naturally resistant to poison," Fang Yi laughed, then suddenly looked at Lin Xueru with ill-intent, "Since I haven’t passed out, then Miss Lin, it’s time for my counterattack, right?"

According to those clichéd plots in TV dramas, villains die because they talk too much, and now it was Fang Yi’s turn to be arrogant.

However, Lin Xueru still remained utterly calm, coldly saying, "I have a gun."

Fang Yi was initially shocked, then laughed heartily, an evil grin on his face: "Not just you. I have a gun too."
