My Super Beautiful Lady Boss
Chapter 470 - 470 470 Being Followed

470: Chapter 470: Being Followed 470: Chapter 470: Being Followed “You really don’t want a share of the profits?” Su Xuan was somewhat surprised that Luo Li, this little girl, wouldn’t even take the money, which unsettled him a bit.

Luo Li nodded, “Consider this time as proof of my abilities.

Next time, I’ll definitely take it, and you can’t shortchange me even a bit.

I’m quite the little miser,” she giggled.

“If that’s the case, well then, your abilities are beyond doubt!”

“Thank you for the compliment, boss!”

Su Xuan chuckled.

Luo Li was not only an intelligent beauty but also a girl with a great sense of humor.

After taking the jade, Luo Li stayed a little longer before leaving Fang Shiyu’s place.

In a room dedicated to stone cutting in the exclusive small building of Fang Shiyu, Li Ting held a notebook, sitting at the table next to it, her gaze growing numb.

She had been assigned by Su Xuan to supervise the stones he had bought from the Gambling Stone Mall for several million.

She witnessed every stone being cut.

In the beginning, every stone contained jade, and Li Ting kept muttering in her heart that it was only Su Xuan’s incredible luck that made it so.

It must be so, but as more and more stones were cut, Li Ting became increasingly numb because, so far, there had not been a single stone without jade inside it, even if the stone was only the size of a fist.

The Stone Cutting Master even found a piece of jade as small as a fingernail cap, and even this tiny piece of jade was a rare resource worth millions.

Thus, as the stone cutting process continued, Li Ting became more and more numb, unable to comprehend how Su Xuan knew these stones contained jade.

This question had now deeply occupied Cang Yuan’s mind.

“No way, I have to figure out somehow how Su Xuan is doing this!” Li Ting muttered in her heart, with a very firm attitude.

In Li Ting’s view, Su Xuan’s ability was simply miraculous.

The mere thought of gambling with Su Xuan made Li Ting’s face suddenly flush with rosiness.

“Su Xuan, this big jerk, looks so gentle and refined, but I didn’t expect he also wanted to sleep with me.

I’m such a big fool, looking clever and lively, but in the end, I fell right into Su Xuan’s hands!”

At this moment, Li Ting’s heart was a mix of various emotions.

After sending Luo Li away, Su Xuan went straight to his own small room.

Now, only the last four pieces of Emperor Blood Jade were left.

These were all prepared for the Lai family.

“Right, now that all the jade has been processed, it’s time for Lai Linglong, this little girl, to come and pick it up!” Su Xuan muttered, and then directly dialed Lai Linglong’s number.

It had been several days since he had seen Little Lolita, and thinking back, he actually missed her a bit.

The call was quickly connected.

“Brother Su, why are you calling me?”

From the phone, He Yaohui’s gentle, pleasant, and delicate voice came through.

Hearing this voice, Su Xuan felt inexplicably joyful, as if he had been enlightened.

“Isn’t it because your Brother Su missed you!” Su Xuan said.

“Really?”

“Of course!”

Laughter from Lai Linglong echoed over the phone…

Hearing Lai Linglong’s laughter made Su Xuan also seem quite happy.

“Linglong, let’s agree then, come pick up the stuff after school!” Su Xuan said, repeating the sentence once more, worried that Lai Linglong might forget.

However, Su Xuan underestimated Lai Linglong.

She was very obedient, perhaps especially so when it came to listening to Su Xuan, but naturally, she would also listen to her parents.

Su Xuan ended the call and glanced at the Emperor Blood Jade next to him.

“With this forty million worth of Emperor Blood Jade, I believe I can hold my ground in the Southern District.

Once development begins, even the South Tiger Hall won’t stand a chance, but the prerequisite is to keep He Yaohui, this big tree, well covered!” Cang Yuan muttered.

Then, from the Black Small Tripod, he took out a wooden box.

“I hope for some clues for the herbs that the Seeking Fragrance Liquid couldn’t find in this box!” Su Xuan murmured to himself and slowly opened the wooden box.

The moment he opened the wooden box, Su Xuan sensed an ancient qi emanating from the things inside it.

“Holy cow, what is this, it feels like an ancient relic!”

Su Xuan muttered quietly as he carefully took out something resembling a scroll from inside the box.

The scroll was placed on the table, and Su Xuan observed it for about ten minutes; after discovering no other mechanisms in the scroll, Su Xuan finally opened it.

On the scroll was a map, namely an ancient one.

Gazing at the unfamiliar ancient terms on the map, Su Xuan felt like crying without tears.

“What is this nonsense?”

After studying it carefully again, Su Xuan was utterly shocked.

Although he didn’t recognize the location depicted on the map, Su Xuan now knew what it was.

Treasure Map!

Yes, a treasure map.

With the help of his cell phone, Su Xuan understood that the most prominent words on this ancient map were “Treasure Map.”

He placed the scroll back into the box and sat in his small room, starting to smoke.

The item in the box had completely overturned Su Xuan’s understanding.

Previously, before he had met the Military God and encountered various other masters, he was a supporter of atheism.

He believed there were no gods or supernatural phenomena in the world; if there were, it was just phenomena that science had not yet explained.

Now, Su Xuan was no longer a supporter of atheism.

The appearance of the Ghost Beggar let him know that this world still held mysteries.

In the face of the vast world, humanity was really just a drop in the ocean, insignificant and trivial.

Having experienced many things, Su Xuan’s mindset had also undergone a transformation.

Sitting in his room, smoking one cigarette after another, he envisioned how to deal with the scroll, its authenticity, and a series of other questions.

Atheism is the collective belief that denies the existence of all gods or spirits, identifying the idea that no gods exist.

Atheism does not have a uniform philosophical doctrine; for instance, some atheists might completely deny any supernatural phenomena, while others might believe in pseudosciences like fortune-telling, astrology, and fate.

Atheism is often confused with antitheism; the former rejects theism, while the latter explicitly opposes it.

The definitions of gods, their implications, and extent are different, as are those of time and space.

Science, emotions, and intelligence are different.

Humans, gods, science, religion, time, space, world, knowledge, concepts—everything must be redefined, reset, formatted, and rebuilt for each individual.

Su Xuan quickly finished his cigarette, and his thought process was completely overturned, from atheism to theism, all during his brief encounter with the treasure scroll.

“Anything is possible in this world!” Su Xuan muttered to himself, then he picked up the scroll and re-concealed the Treasure Scroll.

“The authenticity of this treasure map must be thoroughly examined by a historian.

Only after verifying the authenticity of the treasure map can there be a chance to search for this legendary treasure!” Su Xuan stated, and after securing the treasure map, he then left his room.

After leaving the room, Su Xuan did not hesitate, but instead left his company, Fang Shiyu, heading straight for the Hongtai Hotel where Azure Dragon was located.

The entire trip to the hotel was about a twenty-minute journey—not too close, but not too far either.

Just as Su Xuan left Antique Street in the Southern District and was riding in a taxi to Hongtai Hotel, a few people who had run out of Antique Street also hailed a taxi immediately and followed the taxi Su Xuan was in.

Inside the taxi, Su Xuan quickly started chatting with the driver, and the whole process was pleasant.

About ten minutes later, the taxi driver changed the subject, saying to Su Xuan, “Buddy, have you offended someone recently?”

The sudden question from the taxi driver left Su Xuan puzzled.

“Uncle, what are you talking about?

I don’t quite understand!” Su Xuan said with a smile.

Afterwards, the taxi driver pointed at the rearview mirror.

“That car behind us has been following you since you got in, so I just wanted to ask if you’ve managed to annoy someone recently—why else would someone be tailing you in broad daylight!”

Su Xuan looked in the rearview mirror and saw that the following taxi wasn’t too close, but it was indeed constantly following their car.

Su Xuan also wondered who could be following him.

South Tiger Hall?

That seemed unlikely; those people usually acted at night, and in the daytime, they would merely issue threats, but following him, Su Xuan thought, could still be a possibility.

Zhang Family?

Also possible, considering he had bought millions worth of jade from their Gambling Stone Mall the previous night, they certainly must have thoughts about him.

Su Xuan thought for a while but could not pinpoint exactly who was following him.

“Master, I won’t go to the hotel.

Please take me to Lanxiang Mechanical Factory in the South Suburb!” Su Xuan said to the taxi driver.

“Young man, that’s not a good idea, Lanxiang Mechanical Factory in the South Suburb is an abandoned factory, quite desolate and secluded.

You’re being followed right now, you should be careful not to go to such rural areas!”

Hearing the driver’s concern, Su Xuan touched his nose and continued, “Uncle, I’ll be honest with you, those people are from Antique Street.

I have an Ancient Jade, which I went to sell, but they offered too low a price, so I didn’t sell it.

They probably want to muscle me out of it, that’s why they’re following me!”

Su Xuan casually made up an excuse to tell the taxi driver, who, not wanting to involve himself in trouble, thus sped up towards the mechanical factory…
