Chapter 1878: I Want Someone

The man in front of me was dressed in casual wear, with an earring in one ear, a buzz cut, sharp features, and a rugged face, his nose bridge quite high, making his face as profound and three-dimensional as an oil painting. He didn’t look very old, but when he smiled, a few fine lines appeared at the corners of his eyes.

“Found out?”

“I was lucky, I’ve chased you down when we were in our teens.”

Dark Snake laughed, “And now, are you going to take me back?”

Yaen Chi sat down, lit a cigarette, “Tell me, how you want me to cooperate.”

“Oh?”

Dark Snake leaned against the table, looking at him with interest, “You’re quite straightforward. Why are you so certain that I have to come to you for cooperation?”

“You’ve been fighting with the Lan Family over territory for years, and yet you haven’t completely taken over G City. You look down on the little schemes Lan’s pulls, which drew the attention from above last year, causing you to quiet down for a while. Lan’s thought you retreated and forcibly took over your territory. From the data I have, you’ve never been one to swallow your pride, there’s only one possibility—”

“Invite a wolf into the house,” interjected Dark Snake, “and then catch a turtle in a jar. How is it? Haven’t been back to the country for years, my Chinese still passable?”

Yaen Chi gave a cold laugh, “Coincidentally, if you want to swallow the Lan’s, you really can’t bypass me.”

Dark Snake stared at him, the smile lingered only on his face, a murderous glint flashed in his narrowed eyes. He hadn’t touched the wine in his glass, the rim pressed against his lips, and after a while, he let out a soft, chilling laugh.

He took a couple of sips of wine, his voice cold, “Yaen Chi, aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?”

“You don’t dare.”

Yaen Chi pulled the ashtray closer, “I just didn’t expect that the Killing Alliance’s influence has even infiltrated G City.”

He lifted his gaze, his eyes directly meeting the other’s, his voice wrapped in a layer of frost, “You’re bold without any sincerity of cooperation. You assassins will eventually be pressed back into the gutter!”

His words were bluntly spoken, akin to rubbing the other’s face into the ground.

This was Dark Snake’s territory, yet he showed no fear.

No beating around the bush, he laid out his identity at once, knowing each other’s intentions. After all, it was merely a short-term mutually exploitative relationship.

“I will cooperate with you, but I have a condition.”

Yaen Chi stood up, “I want one person.”

Near dawn, Yaen Chi returned. He had spent the night in the casino. Early in the morning, the pretty boy got up to see the bodyguards who had gone out with him the night before looking radiant. He casually asked, “Why are you so happy? Did you find some money?”

“We did find some money. Mr. Yaen was incredible; he didn’t lose a single round all night. When the chips piled up, he let us exchange them for cash and distributed it all to the people present. We couldn’t help it, and picked up a bit too.”

“Picked up a bit?” The pretty boy snorted with a laugh, “Picked up quite a lot, right? Don’t you know the principle of not flaunting your wealth? Keep a low profile!”

“Yes… Young Master, will Mr. Yaen go again today?”

“Why?” The pretty boy glared, “Get on with your work. Do you really think money is that easy to pick up!”

Jealousy twisted his face out of shape!

Had he known, he would’ve shamelessly followed along!

He’s always been curious about how rich Yaen Chi really was, casually spending five hundred thousand to buy two lives, tossing out millions in the casino in one night without batting an eye. If this guy wasn’t so dangerous, he could totally have roped him in as an investor to bring in more R&D funding for dear old dad!
