Chapter 224: 123 Welcome to the deep world!

Five o’clock in the afternoon.

Peace Park, a detached villa.

Bai Xiao got out of the off-road vehicle, his gaze quietly surveying the surroundings.

The tall white walls blocked the view from outside, lush tree branches draped over the wall. In the flower bed, lined with ceramic tiles, a wooden fence encircled twisted and glamorous rose thorns, exhaling a faint fragrance of flowers.

Between the flower beds was a path paved with cobblestones, leading from the open space all the way to the distant courtyard, which featured a waterside deck, a small swimming pool, and a white arcade. Beneath the arcade, sofas with yellow spots were arranged, with sunlight slanting down, casting mottled light and shadow.

It had a very modern style and seemed quite relaxed and casual.

Especially that swimming pool courtyard, was it specially designed for parties? Surrounded by a circle of green grass, where one could barbecue in the open air?

He walked towards it, taking in the tranquil atmosphere.

Not bad, the space was quite vast.

He walked up to the villa’s door and reached out to open the mahogany gate.

Retro music flowed out, accompanied by the figure sitting in a chair, playing the violin. In the middle of the hall was a beautifully shaped table with a lovely fruit plate on top, and white candlesticks burning quietly.

There was a black bar in the corner.

Inside, a handsome bartender was busy, wearing a tight white shirt with a black vest, outlining a tall and slender figure. He wore a shiny mechanical watch on his wrist that seemed to be from some international brand.

He leisurely fiddled with the bartending tools, with three glasses in front of him.

Filled with cold, amber-colored liquor.

A hand picked up an evenly translucent lemon slice, drizzling it around the rim of the glass.

"Two of you, please."

A clear voice sounded.

The bartender’s right hand made a slanted inviting gesture.

His head lifted slightly, his sparkling eyes staring at Bai Xiao.

Without asking, Bai Xiao knew who this was.

"Yao Qing, what are you doing here?"

He strode forward, picked up a glass from the countertop and drank it in one gulp.

Given Bai Xiao’s current physical condition, even one hundred percent pure alcohol could not make him drunk. So, in a certain real sense, Bai Xiao could no longer experience the feeling of being drunk.

Next to the bar, Bai Xiao set the empty glass down and turned to look to his left.

"And you, what are you doing?"

Far away in the lounge area, sitting on the sofa playing the violin, was Wei Dong.

He sat upright, and when he was serious, he had an unexpectedly elegant air about him. Gone was his usual comedic talent.

"Isn’t this a housewarming celebration?"

"I’m playing a free piece of music for you."

Wei Dong quickly lost his composure, tossing the violin aside.

He walked over.

He sat down on the bar stool and grabbed his own glass of drink.

Bai Xiao sat down expressionlessly, quietly watching the two.

Wei Dong and Yao Qing coming together definitely had a reason.

"Out with it, what is it really?"

Behind the bar, Yao Qing heard this, her lips curling up slightly.

She turned around, walked out from behind the bar, and also sat down on a chair.

And in those few seconds, Yao Qing had transformed into a tall, voluptuous beauty with golden curls, fiery red lips, and a curvy figure.

The bartender’s clothes were stretched taut in front of her chest, appearing a bit ready to burst.

"According to information from the headquarters..."

"Heavenly God Company might have already struck a secret deal with Evolution Land, conducting some unknowable transactions in private. Heavenly God Company will support Evolution Land through various channels, including but not limited to intelligence, resources, and navigating their network of relationships. And Evolution Land will most likely act as Heavenly God Company’s enforcer. Both parties bear a grudge against us, Mo Yun Group..."

Yao Qing grabbed her glass, too, and downed it in one go.

Her eyes, like emerald gems, were fixed on Bai Xiao.

"So it’s inevitable that Evolution Land will seek retaliation."

"Especially us..."

"We demolished Evolution Land’s number nine base in Jinming City."

"Our faces are probably already memorized by Evolution Land. If they seek revenge, we officers are obviously their prime targets. And among those, the most conspicuous is you, Bai Xiao..."

"I’m sorry that our Mo Yun Group’s actions have dragged you into the conflict with Heavenly God Company and Evolution Land..."

Yao Qing said quietly.

Her last words even seemed to carry a sense of sincerity.

Across from her,

Bai Xiao’s expression was unchanged, his mood exceptionally stable.

His gaze remained fixed on Yao Qing.

"No need to apologize."

Yao Qing opened her mouth, instinctively replying.

"Dragging you into such trouble and danger, I feel..."

"No, I’m enjoying it."

Yao Qing raised her head, suddenly looking at Bai Xiao who interrupted her.

Bai Xiao’s face still held no expression, seemingly no different from before. But she felt the presence of an almost imperceptible aura emanating from Bai Xiao, seeping out of every pore. He was like a young lion on the savannah, unafraid of challenges, even eagerly agitated, wanting to show off his sharp claws that had grown in strength! This inexplicable confidence added an enigmatic aura to Bai Xiao.

Following a brief silence, Bai Xiao quietly looked at Yao Qing.

"If you really do feel sorry..."

"Then in the upcoming skirmishes and battles."

"Don’t forget me."

Bai Xiao’s eyes darkened as he slowly stood up.

He walked straight out the door and began moving his luggage from his car.

Yao Qing was left slightly stunned, not quite able to recover.
