384 Betrayal Is the Foolest Move
Su Bai was baffled by Roger’s phone call. Even he did not know what was going on with Roger.
If it wasn’t for the fact that it was Roger’s voice, Su Bai would have thought that someone had stolen Roger’s phone.
“Do you want to wake up?” Su Bai asked.
Roger gasped and asked, “Why didn’t I realize that you could actually make crystals? I even have reason to suspect that if I were to give you a Beast-core, you would be able to create one as well.”
Su Bai had really thought about that. However, he only thought of Saint Crystal and not the Beast-core.
If Su Bai could really create those things, then Beast-cores and crystals were not worth mentioning at all.
Su Bai sighed. After talking to Roger for a while, he hung up the phone.
Roger did not expect Su Bai to choose the Paris family. He even thought that the Paris family kidnapped Su Bai.
This time, apart from asking about the assessment, the phone call naturally revealed another message, ‘If you don’t want to go to the Paris family, I can go and save you.’
Su Bai looked at the people around him and hung up the phone decisively. He really did not need anyone to save him now.
After all, Su Bai had quite several companions by his side. This time, he also wanted to see what tricks the other party would use.
While Su Bai was thinking, the van stopped. The attendants opened the doors on both sides, and Su Bai got off from one side.
The patriarch of the Paris family, who had been waiting for them, looked at Su Bai with a smile. He did not expect Su Bai to bring so many people with him this time.
Especially when the patriarch of the Paris family saw Yan Xuan, his eyes lit up. He thought if Yan Xuan and Su Bai could work for the Paris family, their family would stand tall in Heavencraft City forever.
The patriarch of the Paris family was excited for a few seconds.
Su Bai looked at the patriarch of the Paris family and said, “Hello, this is my teammate.”
Then, the patriarch of the Paris family smiled at the others. Although he did not know who Lu Le and Bing Qingqing were, he decided to get close to them after seeing Su Bai’s attitude.
The patriarch of the Paris family did not know what Su Bai was doing and thought, ‘Since Su Bai brought so many people here, he must be here to familiarize himself with my family’s business. As long as they are talented people, I could accept all of them. The only difference was that the remuneration would be slightly lower.’
Su Bai did not expect that he would bring Lu Le and Murong Xue here to see the world. He did not expect that the Paris family had already thought about how they would work for the Paris family.
Su Bai raised his eyebrows and said, “Can I have a word with you?”
Su Bai had only one goal, the resources promised.
If the Paris family gave the resources to Su Bai, he would leave with them. If they did not give the resources to Su Bai, he had other ways to get them.
The patriarch of the Paris family smiled and said, “It’s not that easy. I’ll show you around a bit.”
While speaking, the patriarch of the Paris family led Su Bai and the others into a small room.
There were no windows in that room. It could even be said to be a little gloomy.
Su Bai could only look around the room under the light.
At a corner, there seemed to be someone being locked up.
Su Bai squinted his eyes and saw that the man’s mouth was obviously gagged.
The patriarch of the Paris family watched as the last person walked into the room before lighting the candles in the room.
“This is the person you are looking for,” said the patriarch of the Paris family.
Su Bai looked at the patriarch of the Paris family and then at the person who was locked up.
“It’s Paris,” Su Bai said.
“That’s right, he’s Paris IV, my fourth child. I liked him, but I didn’t expect him to do so many things for Yadis’ patriarch. I’ll hand him over to you, and you stay. How about that?”
This deal was obviously not worth it for Su Bai.
Su Bai had never done such a bad deal. He just raised his eyebrows and looked at the patriarch of the Paris family.
“I will definitely refuse. I came here this time just to take a look. If you give me resources, we can become friends. If you don’t, then I’m leaving,” said Su Bai.
Su Bai did not think of staying here any longer.
The patriarch of the Paris family could not help but sigh, “With your great strength, I really don’t feel at ease letting you leave. It would be fine if you joined an ordinary company, but if you joined our opposing family, it would be too tragic.”
Su Bai felt something was wrong.
At first, Yan Xuan thought that he was there to watch a show. He did not expect the other party to look like he wanted to imprison them.
‘No way! The governor wouldn’t agree to this, right? In my opinion, the governor liked Su Bai. Once Su Bai was in trouble, the governor would definitely help. The situation seemed to be going dire here.’ Yan Xuan thought.
But looking at Su Bai, even Yan Xuan could not make up his mind.
Yan Xuan gulped and asked, “What should we do now?”
Su Bai smiled and did not say anything. He just looked at the patriarch of the Paris family.
Su Bai now somewhat believed that the patriarch of the Paris family did not dare to do anything to him. If the patriarch of the Paris family really dared to do it to Su Bai, he would have done it long ago.
“Let’s negotiate,” said the patriarch of the Paris family as he smiled at Su Bai.
“I have taken a fancy to your ability. Don’t worry, I don’t intend to imprison you here.” the patriarch of the Paris family added.
The patriarch of the Paris family just wanted to show Su Bai and the others his attitude toward talents. Especially a top talent like Su Bai.
“If it’s between you and my son, I choose you. After all, you’re more capable of creating wealth than my good-for-nothing son,” said the patriarch of the Paris family. What he meant was that he appreciated Su Bai more.
Su Bai understood what the patriarch of the Paris family meant.
“If one day, I can’t create wealth anymore, then wouldn’t I be inferior to him?” Su Bai asked.
Yan Xuan choked on Su Bai’s words. He really did not know that Su Bai was so bold as to say such things in front of the patriarch of the Paris family.
However, it seemed that the patriarch of the Paris family was not angry. In fact, he was shocked.
At the same time, Yan Xuan admired Su Bai even more. No matter what, he had to cling to Su Bai’s side.
Yan Xuan was even glad that he met Su Bai once when he went to dinner with Qin Wu. At that time, Su Bai did not have any conflict with Yan Xuan.
The patriarch of the Paris family laughed out loud after hearing Su Bai’s words. He looked at Su Bai and said, “You’re a very interesting guy. But I believe that even if you are no longer useful, you won’t do anything to betray others with that smart brain of yours.”
After all, betrayal was actually the stupidest action.
Su Bai nodded. He probably understood what Paris IV had done to make the patriarch of the Paris family so angry.
