Chapter 1297 - 1297: Bai Huanyu's Nemesis

Taking advantage of the time the young man went to get the backup, Bai Huanyu and Xiao Feng began to chat face-to-face.

Both of them wore smiles, occasionally bursting into laughter, looking like a pair of old friends despite their age difference, with an atmosphere seemingly harmonious and mild.

However, only up close could one feel the sharpness and danger hidden behind this harmonious and mild facade!

Bai Huanyu picked up an overturned cup from the table, placed it in front of Xiao Feng, then picked up the teapot to pour water into the cup.

But before the water emerged from the spout, Bai Huanyu withdrew the teapot, smiling, "Mr. Xiao surely won't drink my tea, so it's better not to waste it."

Xiao Feng didn't mind, blinking as he said, "I really have a backup, if you exchange with me, I might still expose it."

"I've already decided to exchange, so even if there's a backup, it doesn't matter." Bai Huanyu said calmly, "You mentioned earlier, ever since we sat down, it's been me asking, you answering.

I, Bai Huanyu, have always pursued fairness, now you can ask whatever you want.

I will not hide what I can answer."

Xiao Feng naturally did not believe Bai Huanyu had such good intentions, shaking his head, "What I want to know, you can't answer; what you can answer, I'm not interested in.

Forget it, I'd better not ask!"

"Truly nothing else you're interested in?" Bai Huanyu coaxed, "For instance, why, under such tense circumstances, I still choose to break the balance?

Or why I'm not afraid of He Qizheng sitting by and profiting while we fight?"

Xiao Feng slowly shook his head, smiling, "These things you mention mean nothing to me; between you and me, do we need any reason to trip each other up?

However, now that we're talking about it, I do suddenly feel some emotion."

"Oh?" Bai Huanyu asked with interest, "What's on your mind?"

Xiao Feng sighed, "I remember when we first started sparring, there was still give and take between you and me, but as it went on, your moves became weaker.

For example, using my fingerprints to frame me, or this time getting Du Zhixiang to recognize you as his godfather.

In my view, these moves lack significant lethality and fail to have any decisive effect.

Of course, if your aim was merely to annoy me and make me feel sick,

Then I can clearly tell you, your plan has succeeded!"

"Does Mr. Xiao look down on me?" Bai Huanyu grinned menacingly, "Pride and complacency are major taboos, don't let a moment's carelessness cause you to capsize in a ditch."

Xiao Feng also smiled, "Let's just wait and see who can laugh in the end."

As they spoke, the young man had already brought the USB drives over.

Bai Huanyu stopped speaking, pushing three USB drives in front of Xiao Feng.

With a reluctant expression, Xiao Feng still handed over the USB drive from his pocket into Bai Huanyu's hand.

After exchanging, Xiao Feng cut short the pleasantries, leaving just a "Goodbye."

and walked out the door.

"Format the USB drives," Bai Huanyu instructed the young man.

The young man agreed, but just as he took the USB drive, Xiao Feng unexpectedly returned.

"Mr. Xiao, is there something else?"

"Indeed, there's a small matter." Xiao Feng nodded, then pulled out three USB drives.

Bai Huanyu frowned, "Is there a problem with the USB drives?"

"Whether there's a problem with the USB drives is yet to know, but there's an issue with the capacity." Xiao Feng said seriously, "What Old Man Bai gave me were three 16G USB drives.

But what I gave you is a 128G USB drive, which is significantly more expensive."

Bai Huanyu's face darkened, "So what do you mean?"

"Make up the price difference, I'll take a little loss, just fifty will do."

On the side, the young man's mouth twitched, how calculating does one have to be?

Bai Huanyu snorted coldly, looking at the young man, "Give him fifty!"

The young man immediately wore a pained expression, opened his wallet, took out a hundred, and placed it beside Bai Huanyu, "I don't have change in my wallet."

Bai Huanyu ignored him, handing the hundred to Xiao Feng, asking, "Mr. Xiao, do you have change…"

However, before he could finish, Xiao Feng pulled out a fifty and handed it over.

"Goodbye!" Xiao Feng smiled broadly, leaving satisfied.

Bai Huanyu fell into thought, instinctively feeling that Xiao Feng's return must be for something.

But the question was, what exactly was he after?

On the surface, it seemed to be just about the price difference; he gave a hundred, Xiao Feng returned fifty.

Wait!

A hundred dollars!

Bai Huanyu's brow furrowed tightly, realizing a possibility.

That is—Xiao Feng intended to extract fingerprints from the hundred he handled, then do something with it.

Before he could continue pondering, the young man beside him spoke up, "Sir, should I still format the USB drive?"

"Yes." Bai Huanyu nodded.

The young man agreed, inserted the USB drive into the computer, then frowned in confusion, "Sir, it's different from before."

"Hmm?" Bai Huanyu's eyes widened, quickly asking, "What's different?"

"Previously, there were two video files, but now there's only one audio file."

"Smash!"

The teacup in Bai Huanyu's hand fell to the floor, breaking.

He clutched his chest, feeling a burning fire inside, causing unbearable pain.

Closing his eyes, scenes flashed before him.

Xiao Feng refused to exchange USB drives, stood up to leave, pocketed the USB drive… then took it out again, continuously persuading him to abandon the exchange, firmly grabbing his attention.

Then sidetracking and changing topics, causing him to forget to "inspect" them again.

Then, just when he was about to format the USB drive, suddenly returning, claiming the memory capacity disparity…

Thinking of these, the flames in Bai Huanyu's chest intensified, as if drenched by a barrel of oil, his temples throbbing!

How could such a simple tactic have worked on him!

Beside him, the young man naturally realized by now that Xiao Feng had switched the USB drives.

Glancing at the audio file displayed on the computer screen, the young man cautiously asked, "Sir, do you want to listen to the audio?"

"Play it," Bai Huanyu held his forehead, absentmindedly responding.

Double-clicking to open the audio file, a familiar-sounding voice played, making Bai Huanyu breathe rapidly uncontrollably, blood surging to his head, and he then blacked out, falling from his chair.

"Thud!"

The young man snapped out of his stupor, hastily turned off the audio, and rushed to Bai Huanyu's side.

However, before he could perform chest compressions or pressure points for emergency aid, a mouthful of blood sprayed onto his face.

"Spat!"

Instantly, Bai Huanyu's head tilted to one side, with red spots all over the young man's face and Bai Huanyu's chest.

The young man didn't dare delay, immediately rushing out to call for help.

"Get help! The lord has vomited blood again!"

Beyond the wall, upon hearing this shout, Xiao Feng revealed a satisfied smile…

Ye Kuto truly was Bai Huanyu's nemesis!
