Chapter 389: Stunned

"I understand, I understand! I truly don’t know anything, and even if I did, I would never tell, even if it killed me." The Madman had once tried to ask his cousin about the bodyguards around the Crown Prince, and his cousin had repeatedly warned him never to repeat what he’d been told; otherwise, both of their lives would be in danger. Sensing that Leng Xuan was willing to let him go, the Madman immediately felt a huge relief wash over him, and his taut nerves finally began to relax.

Leng Xuan sighed silently to himself. He hadn’t expected that after leaving the organization, even his heart had softened. Why was this? Was it because he had fallen in love with the comfortable life he was living now?

About this, Leng Xuan truly couldn’t say for sure, but if it had been before, it wouldn’t matter if the other person was just a small-time thug or even a philanthropist; he would never have shown mercy because the national interests came above everything, even his own life. But now, his desire to kill the other man was merely to keep a secret, and he felt a bit selfish for that because life was hard to come by. A lesson will do, he thought. Seeing how scared the Madman was, he would probably never dare to reveal to a third party that Leng Xuan was a Cultivator, so Leng Xuan couldn’t be bothered with him any longer and turned his gaze to Jiang Yulan.

As soon as Jiang Yulan met Leng Xuan’s indifferent gaze, she couldn’t help but shiver and took two steps back, saying, "What do you want to do?"

"Nine thousand seven, let’s settle it now and get out of here," Leng Xuan said indifferently.

Jiang Yulan breathed a sigh of relief. Nine thousand and some change wasn’t a problem at all, let alone the fact that it was what Zhao Xiaoqing rightfully deserved as compensation. So, she readily agreed, counted ten thousand yuan from the cash register drawer, and then walked over to hand it to Leng Xuan, saying, "Here is ten thousand yuan, take it."

Leng Xuan curled his lip and said, "Give it to whom it belongs!"

Jiang Yulan was startled for a moment but then understood what Leng Xuan meant. She promptly handed the money to Zhao Xiaoqing but also gave her a venomous glare. However, now that Zhao Xiaoqing knew how incredible Leng Xuan was, how could she be afraid of her? Unable to contain her anger, she "smacked" Jiang Yulan with a slap, stunning the woman.

Zhao Xiaoqing didn’t even bother to look at Jiang Yulan again and pulled Leng Xuan by the hand to leave, saying, "Let’s go."

Watching the backs of Zhao Xiaoqing and Leng Xuan with venomous eyes, Jiang Yulan ground her teeth and said, "Good for you, Zhao Xiaoqing, you dared to hit me, hmph, I will make you regret this..."

"Which car is yours?" Zhao Xiaoqing asked, looking puzzled when they reached the street opposite because, apart from a luxurious Ferrari, there were no other cars nearby. To think that Leng Xuan’s car was that Ferrari was just crazy, as Leng Xuan didn’t seem like someone who could be a rich second-generation or anything like that.

However, Leng Xuan just smiled, let go of her hand, walked to the front of the Ferrari, opened the driver’s side door, and sat down inside. After rolling down the window, seeing Zhao Xiaoqing standing there in disbelief, he said, "What? Aren’t you getting in?"

"Wow~!" Zhao Xiaoqing was both shocked and delighted but also a little angry. Leng Xuan’s car was worth millions, so why did he act as if investing a million in a leisure center was such a hardship for him? What kind of motive was that? Honestly...
