When Ye Ningyuan brought An Xunuo to Entertainment City, everybody, especially the men from the Top Terrorist Organization, were especially taken aback as they saw a woman with him.
Save Rosefinch and her companion, almost no women stood side by side with him.
An Xunuo could be considered a killer, or more accurately, a covert intelligence agent. She was famous in the line, and some saw her actual look but not her actual identity. Ye Ningyuan, for precaution’s sake and fear of asking for trouble, had Xunuo wear white casual wear and sports shoes. Her long hair was draped behind her, and the gauze on her head had yet to be removed. She looked cold and had a few hints of innocence. Nobody had seen her and did not know that the Top Terrorist Organization had such an eminent figure.
Even those from the Colombian mafia had seen An Xunuo but did not understand Ye Ningyuan’s actions—his bringing an injured woman, whom he behaved intimately with, to a business discussion. Everyone was guessing that they were probably lovers.
Green Dragon and White Tiger stood by his left and right with ten men. When they entered the conference hall, An Xunuo shrunk her neck at the tense atmosphere. A stocky middle-aged man with rugged features stood at one end of the conference hall, and she could make out his razor-sharp gaze from behind his shades. Four people, two men and two women, stood behind him whilst the other ten-over spread themselves in the conference hall.
With music from Entertainment City right below them, the sound insulation in the conference hall was so good it was completely insulated from the chaos beneath and completely silent. She did not like the atmosphere here as everybody was armed and stern-looking. They all emanated an overbearing temperament that she did not like. She hid behind Ye Ningyuan as she did not want to see them.
Her actions caused her to be misunderstood by the others as somebody who had yet to see the world and was afraid enough to turn to Ye Ningyuan for protection.
Ye Ningyuan stroked her lead lovingly and led her to her seat.
“Marlo Pablo Desses.”
“Black J.” As they greeted each other, An Xunuo, ignorant of how her actions stood out, moved her chair and sat next to Ye Ningyuan. The Colombians looked at him, some sniggering and some in shock. Xunuo ignored them and had her own way.
Ye Ningyuan smiled.
This was the first time Marlo saw the legendary Black J. People who had seen Black J described him as an impeccably handsome young man that was arrogant and looked down on all creation. Black J indeed garnered respect.
He looked at Ye Ningyuan. He sure had an immaculate face and pale skin. Ye Ningyuan seemed as though he ought not to be present, but only in special situations. The coldness and overbearingness of him would not allow anybody to misidentify him. When he was Ye Ningyuan and Black J, he had both characteristics.
He indeed had an overbearing presence for his young age. It was little wonder Chu Li and all entered seclusion and gave him rein of the Top Terrorist Organization.
He harrumphed in his heart and looked at the woman in white as though she were some special presence. His gaze toward her had a few evident hints of gentleness and doting. Marlo coldly harrumphed at how he was just some hot-blooded man.
“Black J’s little lover seems rather cowardly. You bear to bring her to such an occasion?” Marlo said.
An Xunuo gently frowned and Ye Ningyuan had a cold smile. “You sure care about a lot of things.”
Black J’s name was neither unheard of nor unknown. He had, by large, brought the entire world to his heels within the past few years. He called the shots, and there were few, however unwilling they were, who sought peace with him. There were some, after some stability, who wanted to live dangerously and challenge his bottom line and authority, like Marlo Pablo Desses who stood before him. He did not have the chops to ask his things.
Marlo, who had a malicious and insidious look, was crazy and yet reserved. “I’m sorry.”
“Cut the crap. What are the specific weapons you want this time?” Ye Ningyuan asked the obvious as he, thanks to Green Dragon’s intelligence gathering, knew that Marlo had substantial weapons of mass destruction from several arms dealers.
To have these many weapons stored separately made it obvious that he was relying on sheer firepower to grab their turf. While Ye Ningyuan would not bother about bushfire wars, which the regional hall masters would see to, Marlo’s overboard streak was what caused the regional hall masters to seek the headquarters’ advice. It was up to Ye Ningyuan and White Tiger to decide whether to kill him or not.
“I’ve heard that the Top Terrorist Organization has developed a new biological weapon codenamed ‘Blue Lens’. I’m willing to pay twice the market rate for it and sweeten the order with 100,000 M99 and M108 sniper rifles respectively,” Marlo flatly said. “Carlos has also recently gotten his hands on a biological weapon. Hearsay has it that the weapon is the very same weapon that Red Fox made away with the previous time, and this weapon has made its way into the market. Since I have a grudge with Carlos, I must prepare in advance.”
White Tiger, who was behind Ye Ningyuan, raised his eyebrows slightly and his gaze grew malicious. Wasn’t he, with all these weapons, asking for his doom? While he was no government, wanting these many weapons made it clear that he wanted to go toe to toe against the Top Terrorist Organization.
‘Hmmph!’
Ye Ningyuan looked on coldly and said calmly, “Who told you that I have the ‘Blue Lens’?”
It had been a year since the biological weapon was developed, and its antidote was developed just a few months ago along with its second iteration that was much more lethal than the first generation. White Tiger and the North American arms dealers had once discussed such weapons, but the arms dealers were assassinated at the very final deal. As a result, the deal fell through and there was no mention of it since then. Few were in the know about it.
“Word spreads fast.”
“No can do!” Ye Ningyuan said arrogantly. “I’m not interested in such a deal.”
He held a very tight leash over the control of viral weapons. Apart from the biggest arms dealers, he wanted to guarantee the profitability of the arms dealers’ as well as the equilibrium price across the munitions market, along with the stability of said market.
Starting a conflict was not on his agenda.
“Mr. Black, your move is not the wisest move. Are you going to turn down such a huge deal?” Marlo, in seeming unbelief at what he had heard, stared hard and lowered his voice.
“Do you think I am short of money?” Ye Ningyuan coldly asked in return. His smile was aggressive and had a presence that was not built on anger. A hint of danger flashed in his squinted eyes.
