Shi Qian placed her hand on the table and tapped her fingertips on it.
She spoke after a while. “I think we should be more direct this time. We shouldn’t take orders no matter how much they offer.”
“Master Zhan and Beiming Yue are friends, and Beiming Yue couldn’t conspire with Shang Xiu Yuan to harm Master Zhan. We must not reveal news about Beiming Yue. What do you think?”
“That’s what I mean. However…” Gui Mo suddenly paused.
“However, what?”
“I thought you’d try to extort some money from them and give them some wrong information.”
Shi Qian raised her eyebrows. Was she that kind of person?
“Why would we give wrong information? Wouldn’t that ruin the reputation of our K3 Hacker Front Group?!”
Gui Mo couldn’t answer.
Two figures appeared in a clubhouse.
“Master, the K3 Hacker Front Group just replied to us.”
“What did they say?” Shang Xiu Yuan leaned back on the sofa. He closed his eyes to rest. “Is the price reasonable now?”
The subordinate stammered. “The hackers. The hackers said they won’t take our orders anymore.”
Shang Xiu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. The news darkened his expression.
“And…” The subordinate spoke again.
“What else?” Shang Xiu Yuan’s face was ashen as he gritted his teeth.
“The K3 Hacker Front Group said they would never accept our orders again…”
“What a bunch of arrogant bastards!” Anger filled Shang Xiu Yuan’s eyes.
He spoke again after a long time. “I no longer mind if they ignore our orders. We’ll investigate ourselves. However, this matter would take some time.”
“Go and see how Shi Yaorong is doing. Tell that idiot to be more careful and make sure Shi Qian lets down her guard against him.”
“Okay, I’ll visit the Shi Family’s company.”
Shi Qian left the Hacker Front Group Headquarters and went to Antique Street.
Murong Jing returned to Beiming and planned to pick a gift for him.
Shi Qian scanned the shops on both sides. A name on the plaque caught her attention.
She went over to support Baili Xi when he said he had opened an antique shop on Antique Street.
Jiang Manxi and another woman suddenly walked over from the opposite side while Shi Qian walked.
They looked at each other.
Disdain filled Jiang Manxi’s eyes. This time, she did not greet her like she did at the bar. She glanced at her with mockery and turned to walk into the antique shop with her friend.
Shi Qian looked indifferently at the plaque above the shop’s door, which read, ‘Baili Xuan.’
That should be Baili Xi’s antique shop. Her guess must be correct.
A figure appeared in the antique shop.
Jiang Manxi glanced at the items on the display cabinet, but her mind was elsewhere.
She recalled Shi Qian and Shang Sizhan while together. She felt a lump in her chest, and her breathing became uneven.
“Manxi, what’s wrong?” She didn’t appear well, and her friend wondered. “You look so pale.”
“It’s nothing,” Jiang Manxi replied calmly. “I just saw someone I didn’t want to see.”
“Who is it? Where is she?” The woman seemed to recall something. “Is it the woman we saw outside?” She asked.
Jiang Manxi didn’t say anything.
The woman turned her head and looked outside. Coincidentally, Shi Qian walked in.
“Hello, Miss.” The shop assistant immediately greeted her. Miss, do you have anything you like?”
It was Jiang Manxi’s first time in the shop.
However, because she was a high-profile person, the male manager recognized her as the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family at a glance.
The male supervisor followed Jiang Manxi and personally served her. “Miss Jiang, if you’re not satisfied with these, we have a new batch of goods in our shop.. Would you like to take a look?”
