Chapter 196 Master Dao wants to see me?
Creak~
The door at the stairway was pushed open a crack.
Lu Bai poked his head out from behind the door and looked around at the situation on the rooftop.
"Hey, good work, little brother."
Thirteenth daughter smiled and waved to Lu Bai: "Come here quickly, let's have a drink."
Hei Jinbao turned around at the same time, showing his scorched yellow teeth, which could barely be seen as a sign of goodwill.
This strange situation on the rooftop made Lu Bai raise his eyebrows slightly.
Although he realized that these two guys drinking peacefully on the rooftop were not simple, he was not too vigilant.
He opened the door and walked to the empty chair next to the glass table and sat down.
After all, we still don’t know the whereabouts of Xiamei.
And judging from the attitudes of these two guys, there seems to be other reasons here.
Brother Xia followed behind Lu Bai nervously, his face turned red from holding back, and he didn't even dare to take a breath.
He obviously knew Hei Jinbao and Thirteen Yao, and he couldn't help but want to tell Lu Bai their identities, but he was worried that he would anger the two real bosses in front of him.
But in fact, Thirteen Yao and Hei Jinbao didn't look at Brother Xi at all, they just regarded him as air.
Gululu~
Thirteenth Yao poured a glass of whiskey, pushed the glass in front of Lu Bai, and then raised his own goblet, making a gesture of clinking glasses with Lu Bai.
"Brother Lu Bai, right?"
A kind smile appeared on Lu Bai's face unconsciously.
Without losing face, he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Shisan Yao.
"It's me."
In order to show sincerity, the thirteenth girl drank all the wine in the glass.
After smacking his lips, he said with a smile: "We have been waiting here for you for a long time. You are indeed a talented person."
Lu Bai took a sip of wine and looked up again at this guy who looked like he was wearing a suit and ties.
"You kidnapped Xiamei just to see me?"
"Haha, brother Lu Bai, you misunderstood."
Thirteenth Yao refilled himself: "There is someone else who wants to see you."
Lu Bai pointed at Brother Xi behind him without looking back.
"To make Brother Xia so nervous, you must all be big shots in Chikan Bay, right? It's not easy to find me. Why do you want to capture Sister Xia first?"
Thirteen Yao hummed and explained in a somewhat surprising way.
"This can be considered a test. This is what that person meant. You have to prove yourself first."
"Prove yourself, you mean kill Brother Biao?"
Lu Bai nodded thoughtfully: "Or, kill a warrior?"
Thirteen Yao responded naturally: "Yes, if you can't even handle an acquired warrior, then you will die."
"Tsk."
No matter what Lu Bai was thinking, he still had that harmless and kind smile on his face: "It's hard to worry about you."
"Fortunately, after all, you also let me experience this novel power."
"Is the person who wants to see me Master Dao?"
"I just like smart people like you. To be honest, if Master Dao hadn't said he wanted to meet you, I would have invited you to join our Nanxing Club."
Thirteenth son picked up the wine glass and made a gesture to clink glasses again: "After drinking this glass, let's go over quickly and don't keep Taoist Master waiting."
Lu Bai was not in a hurry to clink glasses, but instead asked: "Where is Sister Xi? Where are you now?"
Thirteenth-year-old boy turned his eyes in the direction of Hei Jinbao: "You have to ask Brother Jinbao about this. Heping Lane is his territory. I, the Nanxing Club, don't dare to extend my hand."
"Don't worry, that little girl's life is not in danger."
Hei Jinbao gave the answer.
But Lu Bai was not satisfied with this answer: "I want to see her first."
Hearing this, Hei Jinbao's expression suddenly became a little unkind: "I told you, she is safe."
"If I'm not wrong, Master Dao probably doesn't want to see me for any bad reasons, right? Maybe he wants to recruit me, or at least there is something he needs me to do."
Lu Bai's eyes gradually narrowed, but his tone still sounded filled with an inexplicable smile: "So, Brother Jinbao, are you sure you want to fight with me?"
Hei Jinbao was silent for a while, then grinned again.
"Since Brother Lu Bai has doubts, then come with me."
…My name is Xiamei, and I am an ordinary girl living on Heping Branch, Chikan Bay.
My brother and I are both orphans who have lost our parents. We have been dependent on each other since childhood, relying on the restaurant passed down from our parents for a living.
When I was a child, I had a high fever and lost the ability to speak.
My brother blamed himself very much, thinking that when I had a fever, he was still busy in the store, which led to this happening to me.
He has been saving money by various means to cure me.
But I checked and found that this kind of damage is irreversible. With current medical technology, it is impossible to cure it and it can only be a waste of money.
The shrimp claypot restaurant left by my parents was a small business with meager profits.
I don't want my brother to be dragged down by me. He should have his own life.
But I couldn't persuade him, so I could only help out in the store as much as possible every day.
Although such days are tiring, in Chikan Bay, it is already the dream life of many people.
After the store closed yesterday, my brother counted the money he earned and said: You will be eighteen years old this year. When you reach the age to get married, you have to go outside Chikan Bay to choose a good husband for you.
I couldn't speak, I could only smile bitterly.
No good family would accept a mute like me.
My brother seemed to know what I was thinking and told me with certainty: As long as the dowry is rich enough, my husband’s family will always have it.
I don't want to contradict my brother.
In fact, I have always known that my brother is not a good person, but I also know that he is not robbing money for himself.
I also know that he has always wanted me to leave Chikan Bay and live a peaceful life outside.
But I'm not looking forward to that life.
Days like this are already very good for me.
And this afternoon, I also met a very good-looking boy.
His brother was stopping him and wanted to steal his money.
I stopped my brother and cooked a shrimp claypot rice for that good-looking boy, hoping that he could forgive me.
To me, this is just a blip in life.
But I didn't expect that the day was not over yet.
As evening approached, many people suddenly came running outside the store.
Each of them is so vicious that I can't resist.
They took me blindfolded from the store and I didn't know where they were taking me.
I wanted to scream for help, but I couldn't make a sound.
I'm scared.
Can anyone help me...
…
In a dilapidated rental house.
Three gangsters sat around smoking.
"Damn, it's so boring. How long do we guys have to wait?"
One of the gangsters with large tattoos on his arms put out his cigarette butt and turned to look at the shrimp girl in the corner who had her hands and feet tied up.
A ball of evil fire could not help but arise in his heart: "Don't tell me, this mute is quite handsome, can I touch him?"
"I don't know. Snake didn't say who this woman is."
"Tch, look at the clothes this woman is wearing, she can't be a big shot."
As Big Flower Arm said, he walked alone to the shrimp girl in the corner: "Why don't we brothers have a good time?"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sudden loud knocking on the door scared the big flowery arm and almost shrunk.
I couldn't help but yell: "Tick the hook eight, you are in a hurry to reincarnate!"
He turned angrily and walked towards the door, and opened the door suddenly, wanting to teach this ignorant guy a lesson.
Unexpectedly, he saw Hei Jinbao and Thirteen Yao at the door.
Thirteenth daughter's eyes were quite playful: "Brother Jinbao, it is indeed not life-threatening."
