Chapter 4784 - : Lu Yan’s Additional Story (14)
My Youth Began With Him-Webnovel
Bai Chang did not answer her. He got up weakly and walked towards the bookcase in the dark corner of the bedroom.
Then, he shakily picked up a huge vaseâ¦
He pointed at the vase and handed it to Lu Yan, saying, âCan I pay the debt using this?â
Lu Yan almost laughed out loud. She pointed at the vase and asked, âBlue and white porcelain?â
Bai Chang noddedâ¦
He was afraid that Lu Yan wouldnât believe him, so he gestured with his hands to explain, âIt came from an official brothel in the later periods of Ming Dynasty. Currently, the price is over 100 million yuan.â
âHaha, youâre really something. People say that the Bai Family is a treasure trove, thatâs really true⦠You can easily take out something so valuable⦠No wonder you guys set up such a powerful array downstairs. Fine, this vase looks pretty good. Iâll take it, but itâs too inconvenient to take it with me. When I go back, Iâll find a buyer to take it away and pay me directly. So, Iâll leave it with you for now. Donât lose it,â Lu Yan joked.
She was already a world-class nouveau riche. Money was just a number to her, so she was not as greedy as the rumors said.
She only wanted to tease him by asking for a deposit. She did not expect him to take it seriously and even give her a big vase.
Bai Chang nodded seriously and carefully placed the vase back.
He turned around and smiled brightly at Lu Yanâ¦
That smile was very warmâ¦
This shouldnât be someone who couldnât speakâ¦
Lu Yan suddenly felt a little sad. She turned around and said, âTsk tsk⦠I didnât kill you and failed my mission⦠What should I do? Iâve never failed all these years⦠Am I going to ruin my reputation this time? I can return the money I took, but if I go back to the mercenary world, will I be cursed for eternity? Hahaâ¦â
Bai Chang was silent for five seconds.
Then he walked over and gestured in sign language. âYou can kill me and return to report.â
âTch⦠If I really wanted to kill you, I wouldnât have saved you. Am I that free?â Lu Yan smiled.
âI know who wants to kill me⦠The person who gave you the money should be my third uncle,â Bai Chang said.
Lu Yan remained silent. Although she never asked for information about the buyer, the source of the mission came from South America.
That person was an important member of the Bai family. As for why the uncle wanted to kill his nephew, it was probably because of the internal conflict in the Bai family. It was not within Lu Yanâs scope of understanding.
Seeing that Lu Yan didnât say anything, Bai Chang continued, âYou can bring me to see my Third Uncle and hand me over to him. That way, you can complete your mission.â
âDidnât I just tell you? Give me twice the price and Iâll let you go. I can even help you kill your uncle,â Lu Yan laughed.
However, Bai Chang shook his head. âTo me, dying and living are no different⦠Itâs different for Third Uncle. He may like this world more than me⦠so itâs better for me to die.â
âIs there something wrong with the Bai family⦠One wants to kill his nephew, and the other is willing to die⦠I say⦠your father only has you as his son⦠If you die, who will take care of him in his old age⦠How can those illegitimate children compare to you, the son of the first wife?â
In the end, it turned out that Lu Yan was the one trying to persuade Bai Chang. The change in their roles was shocking.
Bai Chang stared into Lu Yanâs eyes and asked in sign language, âDo you know why I like you?â
After Lu Yan deciphered his gestures, she felt her eyelids twitch. This was indeed the first time she had met Bai Chang. It was a little too abrupt to say that he liked her, but she knew that this man didnât have to lie.
