Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Smiling Tiger Sister Qin

Four people followed, and they all went to the back office together.

It wasn’t far from the front and was somewhat noisy.

Once the young girl entered, she closed the door, and all the bustle was shut out from the outside.

Sister Qin sat on the sofa, and immediately someone came over to light a cigarette for her.

"What do you want?"

"Grains with husks, or in other words, seeds."

"Oh?"

Sister Qin blew out a ring of smoke unhurriedly, clearly, she was a bit surprised by this request.

"Why do you want these? We have everything here, food, cigarettes, women..."

Song Yi didn’t speak, and Jhiang Yuan didn’t know whether she should or not.

After an awkward silence that lasted two minutes, Sister Qin suddenly gave a laugh.

"Fine, we don’t have seeds, but we have plenty of grains with husks. How much money do you have?"

They had agreed earlier that each person would bring seventy thousand, cash they had divided up before.

"A total of two hundred and eighty thousand!"

Song Yi responded succinctly, making Sister Qin frown.

"That’s not much, I can’t give you too many goods."

"However much there is, that will do..."

Suddenly, Jhiang Yuan felt that Sister Qin and Song Yi were cut from the same cloth.

Although they appeared to be gentle on the surface, they were cold at heart.

"Haha, alright..."

With just a look from Sister Qin, the young girl went out.

"You seem quite capable. How about staying to work as a bodyguard for me?"

Damn, she had taken a liking to Song Yi.

Indeed, a skilled person can make their way anywhere.

"I’m sorry, Sister Qin, but I have family at home that needs looking after. I can’t leave them..."

Jhiang Yuan thought he would beat around the bush for a bit, but didn’t expect him to refuse so directly.

Sister Qin wasn’t angry and continued to puff away at her cigarette.

Right at that moment, the young girl came back.

In her hands, she carried a bag that looked to be about twenty to thirty jin in weight.

"Sister Qin, here’s the stuff..."

For two hundred and eighty thousand, there really wasn’t much.

But as seeds, it was enough.

"The money?"

Once he heard her question, Song Yi immediately handed over a bag.

The remaining three also did the same; their money was kept separately, not together.

Sister Qin presumably thought they had done so out of fear of complications, splitting it between them for safety.

The young girl, on the other hand, was quite disdainful, snorting dismissively.

She took the money and handed over the bag.

The deal was done.

"I see it’s getting late, I won’t keep you any longer.

If you regret it later, come and find me," she said to Song Yi.

Zhang Kaiyang was getting anxious. It was almost seven o’clock, and it was probably freezing outside.

Letting them go was almost like sending them to their deaths.

There were so many guests here, there must be a place to stay.

However, intimidated by Sister Qin’s authority, he dared not speak up.

"Please..."

"Alright, Sister Qin, I’ll take them away now..."

The person who had led the way before nodded and bowed, then quickly ushered everyone to leave.

Song Yi nodded as a signal, and no one hesitated.

Although it was cold outside, staying here wasn’t necessarily safe either.

Several people made their way back the same way they had come, and this time there were no more troublemakers.

Outside, there was a scene of feasting and revelry, a world of drunkenness on wealth.

Jhiang Yuan knew that things were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

In such a place, all sorts of deals were likely to be made, even ones so blatant that they were done in plain sight.

Well, if they must leave, Song Yi was a man with plans, surely he had a strategy in mind.

Approaching the entrance, the temperature dropped sharply. Jhiang Yuan couldn’t help but shiver!

The person leading the way cursed under his breath, "Damn, it’s so freaking cold, life out here is not fit for humans."

"Big brother, you guys really have it tough. Here’s a pack of cigarettes for when you’re stuck and need one."

Seeing Zhang Kaiyang’s skillful behavior, the man showed a smile, and he began to talk more.

"You few are lucky today, running into me...

If it had been someone else, you might have ended up like that guy in the floral shirt."

"That’s true, we owe it all to big brother.

By the way, big brother, it’s freezing cold, and who knows what we might encounter once we go out, our weapons..."

The man looked at Zhang Kaiyang with some annoyance, thinking: Just now I thought this kid was sharp, and now he’s acting foolish.

He fully embraced his role as an enforcer, putting his arm around the other’s shoulder.

"Big brother, please do us a favor, it’s really just for self-defense."

As he spoke, a piece of chocolate found its way into the man’s pocket.

"Heh, you’re lucky today, running into me..."

With that, he led the group to a room at the back.

Zhang Kaiyang continued to flatter from behind, while Jhiang Yuan watched him spouting nonsense without a hint of embarrassment on his face.

He was truly suited to be a salesman. Although the job wasn’t high-class, it really did make money!

Inside the room were several large cardboard boxes filled with a variety of weapons.

"Make it quick..."

"Yes, right away. Thanks a lot, big brother..."

The group hurried to find their weapons. Above all, Song Yi’s sleeve arrows and short knives needed to be retrieved.

They didn’t dare to grab carelessly. Everything had been logged earlier, and now there was someone with a checklist coming over.

They were afraid of touching anything off-limits, as there were formidable individuals among the group.

Finding their own weapons, they felt a measure of relief.

"That’s it, you can go now. I won’t hold you up any longer."

The guide was courteous for a moment, while Zhang Kaiyang repeatedly expressed his gratitude, then bid him farewell.

The group felt a chill to the bone; it was truly cold.

"Let’s get moving!"

The snow seemed to be falling even more heavily now, settling ceaselessly.

On the streets, there were two people clearing the snow with bamboo brooms.

The four did not dare to linger and walked towards the lights along the road.

By the time they reached the edge of the village, there were no lights to be seen.

Jhiang Yuan quickly pulled out a high-powered flashlight from her backpack, but before she could turn it on, Song Yi pressed her hand and shook his head.

Receiving the signal, she stayed quiet.

Song Yi took her hand, then grabbed Zhang Kaiyang with his other hand.

Jhiang Yuan caught on and quickly pulled Ye Mianmian along as well.

The four of them began to trudge back, one step deep, one step shallow.

Without the lights, the whiteness of the snow was still discernible.

Here, untouched by anyone, the snow had already reached thigh height.

Each step forward was exceedingly difficult.

"Don’t talk, and don’t look back..."

His voice was low yet audible to them all.

Jhiang Yuan felt a surge of fear in her heart. Song Yi’s scouting abilities were very strong; if he was speaking like this,

there was likely something happening behind them. If they were being followed in this cold, it didn’t bode well.

No one dared to speak, all pushing their footsteps harder.

Fearing lest their pace couldn’t keep up and they lose their lives.
