Bai Xue said angrily, âWhat kind of attitude is that? Youâre Li Yanâs assistant. Shouldnât you be protecting me?â
âAs you said it yourself- Iâm an assistant, not a security guard,â the assistant said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing. âIf youâre afraid of problems, you can hire your own security guards. However, I wonât protect you.â
Bai Xue said angrily, âI order you to come with me,â
This assistant was Li Yanâs favorite. If he accompanied her, not only could he be used as a security guard, but it would also show that Li Yan valued her.
Ever since the assistant was tricked last time, he didnât view Bai Xue nicely. Even if she was Li Yanâs woman, he still saw her as a bad person.
He replied, âCEO Li said that you need money, so I can give it to you temporarily. If itâs any other order, he didnât ask me to carry it out. Iâm sorry.â Bai Xue was furious, but Bai An didnât give her much time, so she couldnât delay any longer.
âAlright,â Bai Xue couldnât help but say. âYouâre quite capable. Iâll see what you can do when Li Yan comes back.â
âSince thereâs nothing else, Iâll hang up now,â the assistant said coldly.
âI have something to say,â Bai Xue said. âGive me a million yuan and ten security guards. Have them pick me up immediately. Also, arrange for a few reporters.â
A million? A security guard? Reporters?
The assistant was stunned but quickly replied, âThe money will be in your account soon, and Iâll arrange the security guard and reporters in a bit. Is there anything else?â
Bai Xue didnât say anything and directly hung up the phone. Since she didnât need anything else anyway, there was no need to continue talking nonsense.
An hour later, Bai Xue and Bai An met at the entrance of a small hotel.
Seeing Bai An dressed in simple, clean clothes and carrying a big backpack, Bai Xue was stunned and felt a little guilty.
She said gently, âSecond Brother, why donât you sit in the same car as me?â
Seeing that Bai Xue had brought ten security guards with her, Bai An sneered. She wasnât going back to attend a funeral, but she was clearly going back just to show off.
âLetâs go,â Bai An said as he got into the car.
Bai Xueâs expression changed. The assistant beside her said, âBai Xue, weâre getting in the car too,â
Then, the assistant gave the reporter a look.
The reporter nodded in understanding.
After getting into the car, the reporter sat directly beside Bai An.
Bai An hugged his backpack tightly. The reporter looked at Bai Xueâs assistant, as the latter nodded secretly.
The reporter received the signal and immediately asked, âMr. Bai, your backpack seems to be very heavy. Why havenât you put it down? Is there something expensive inside? Is that why youâre so nervous?â
Bai An glanced at the reporters and said coldly, âYou really want to know?â
The reporter nodded. âIâm indeed curious. Can you tell me?â
He looked at the reporters for a while, then patted his backpack. He replied strangely, âThere is a dead personâs bones in here, and itâs my brotherâs. Do you want to see if there are any more bones in the ashes? I can open it for you!â The reporter suddenly felt a wave of fear and subconsciously moved back.
Bai Xue and her assistantâs expressions also changed drastically while the security guard in the car also looked at Bai An warily.
Bai An said sarcastically, âWhat are you afraid of? Itâs just a corpseâs remains, not a bomb.â
As he said that, he gently patted his backpack. âBrother, Iâll bring you home. Father is still at home. Heâs waiting for you to go back and be buried with him.â
The reporter comforted him. âMr. Bai, Iâm sorry for your loss. I heard that your father and brother both died in a car accident. Why is Mr. Bai in his hometown, but your brother is here? Could it be that they didnât get into a car accident together?â
Bai An said seriously, âIt was a car accident together. My fatherâs body was intact, so he was sent back to his hometown. However, my brother was in a miserable state. His body was in tatters, so it was inconvenient to send him back. I was afraid that my mother wouldnât be able to take it, and with the sparks in this place, Iâm here to bring my brotherâs ashes and soul home.â âYou seem to be a knowledgeable person, yet why are you so superstitious?â asked the reporter in puzzlement.
âIf youâre not superstitious, then why are you afraid?â Bai An said sarcastically. âArenât these just a dead personâs bones? He canât come out and strangle you anymore. Even if he crawled out, he would be crippled. Do you guys still have to be afraid that you canât beat him?â
The reporterâs face was filled with black lines. He reckoned that the first thing he should do was to give this man a slap.
When Bai Xue heard that Bai An was carrying her big brotherâs ashes, she was terrified and subconsciously shrank her neck.
The assistant wasnât in a good condition either. His face was a little pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. How unlucky was he to be in the same car with a pile of ashes?
In order to ease the atmosphere, the reporter said, âMr. Bai, what do you think of this car? Is it alright?â
Bai An looked at the car. This was the most luxurious car he had ever seen, but so what?
He replied, âThe design is not bad, but itâs too coquettish.. Even a car full of men canât suppress this smell!â
