Chapter 728: In the Yamen
Xiao Hua has always been very clear-headed, he loved the people he loved and he hated the people who went against him. Sister Jiao has been with him for a long time but he knew that she had feelings for him which were why he refrained from taking help from her lest she was to make use of his dependence on her.
But now that the matter was concerning to Yu Dong, he did not even think twice about taking the matters into his hands and asking for sister Jiao's help. He wanted the mer who has caused Yu Dong to be upset and aggrieved to suffer just as much as Yu Dong was suffering even if he was considered dangerous and weird by others.
Sister Jiao stared at Xiao Hua for a long time before she took a drag of her cigar and blew a cloud of smoke, before muttering, " You treat her so well, is she even worth it?" She did not know why Xiao Hua was targeting that mer but Sister Jiao knew that the mer must have done something to make Xiao Hua really mad and she has only seen him lose his temper when his loved ones were touched.
" Very," replied Xiao Hua as he stared back at Sister Jiao and asked, " What do you say? You will do it or not?"
" You have come to ask for my help after such a long time, how can I not help?" Sister Jiao threw an arm around her chair and then looked at Xiao Hua with a smile as she rubbed her fingers together. " But this will cause you a hefty sum, my girls will most probably need a good deal of money to stay peacefully in the Yamen and the fact that they will be targeting that mer, you know the bribery will be huge."
" You do not have to worry about that," said Ye Liu before Xiao Hua can speak, he has been listening to their conversation and now that he knew that there was a way to make Qiu Bai suffer, he was willing to take it. " We will pay you as much as you want," as he spoke, he took out a gold tael and placed it in front of Sister Jiao. " Just make that mer suffer such that he regrets touching our family."
He could not do anything for Fang Chi but if this means that he can avenge him, then he was willing to do so!
Chen Mi too took out a gold tael and placed it on the table, he still hasn't forgotten the painful screams of Fang Chi as he begged Yu Dong to save his daughter. He wanted Qiu Bai to scream like that too…call him heartless and cruel but he did not care—— the only thing he cared about was that his wife and someone precious were hurt because of him.
" Ohho, will you look at that," Sister Jiao smiled as she stretched her hand and then picked up the gold tael that was sitting on the table before taking a bite of it with her teeth. When she was satisfied with the quality of the gold taels, she nodded and then snapped her finger as one of the women who was standing behind her walked forward and then stood next to her.
Sister Jiao turned her head but when she saw that the woman was standing upright she slapped her on the arm and then said, " What do you think you are doing? Lower your stiff spine, will you?"
"Forgive me, boss," said the woman as she lowered her head and then brought her ear close to Sister Jiao such that the latter will be able to whisper in her ear. It was a long time before the woman straightened up and took the gold tael that was handed to her, " I will make sure that the message is delivered nicely."
" You do that," Sister Jiao nodded at the woman who was walking out of the room. When Ye Liu and Chen Mi turned to see the woman walk out of the small building, they noticed that the woman was sneering hard which made her look rather terrible.
Chen Mi turned to look at Sister Jiao and then asked, " What are you going to do to Qiu Bai?"
Sister Jiao smirked at his question and winked at him causing Chen Mi to look at her in an affronted manner. " You don't need to worry about that, sweetie. If I tell you the truth then I am afraid you will hurl your dinner right here and now. Leave this matter to us, experts, all right?" Then she turned to look at Xiao Hua and said, " I will expect gold taels as long as you want this to continue, understand little Hua? Friendship is another thing but business is different. Make sure to send the money to my place every month unless you wish to stop."
Xiap Hua stood up from his chair where he was sitting and then said in a soft voice, " I will not stop sending money unless you bring me the news of that mer's death, but I do hope that you drag this matter as much as you can."
" Do not worry," Sister Jiao licked the front of her teeth and then smooched the air. " I am an expert in making mers cry for death." Her eyes raked Xiao Hua causing him to feel slightly miffed.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Hua brushed the kiss that was sent his way and then looked at Sister Jiao and said, " And you ask me why I did not fall for you."
Sister Jiao was stunned for a few minutes before she burst out laughing and said, " Oh my, I did not think I will hear you say such words ever… so you hate my ruthless self? But guess what little Hua, every woman is ruthless in one way or another."
" You are right," Xiao Hua agreed as he placed a gold tael on the table before continuing to speak, " But with you, I am not certain that you will never hurt me but with her," he smiled with a glimmer in his eyes. " I am certain that she will never hurt me."
