Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Chapter 690: Listen to Me

Xiao Qiao actually did not know Jack’s position and exact name. She had always known him by his codename. He was mysterious and secretive in his each and every movement, and he had a really huge power despite his young age. Anti-terrorism and Team Fearless had to cooperate with his actions.

He and Xiao Qiao only worked together once, but she was strangely scared of him.

She kept feeling that he was a really cold and cruel man in his actions and that he could not be offended. She was also always a person with awareness and thus did not really go against him.

“So you have a backing. How impressive!” Xiao Qiao grumbled coldly and looked at Mu Yuan.

He had long hung up the call and was smiling brightly at her.

Mu Yuan smiled and said, “Yes, I’m amazing!”

“Say, how do you wish to cooperate?”

“You follow your plan. Contact Black Rose and hand her the blood rose. My men want to find Black Rose. It’s as simple as this,” Mu Yuan said. As if she was pondering about something, Xiao Qiao crossed her legs, feeling really calm. One look at her, and she did not look like a good working partner.

“She promised to give me two million US dollars. If I hand her to you like this, I will be at a big disadvantage!” She had only received 30% of the pay, and there was still 70% of the pay that she had not collected.

Mu Yuan pondered to himself. This young lady really does not have any principles at all.

Black Rose had also snatched a person right beneath her eyelids, but she was not angry and could actually work together with Black Rose. If she was his subordinate instead, her legs would have long been broken, and her position would be removed. A jail term would not be spared too.

Jack said before that Xiao Qiao had a powerful backing.

Everybody was just turning a blind eye. Moreover, she was too strong. If used correctly, she would be the anti-terrorism team’s dagger. She knew her limits when accepting missions too; she would not cross the line, and this was also why everybody could tolerate her.

“You can report to your chief. Request him to pay you the balance.”

“Why don’t you pay?”

“My country has been facing a budget deficit for many years. We are poor!”

“Tsk tsk…” Xiao Qiao uttered.

Xiao Qiao slightly weighed her options and calmly said, “Alright, I understand. I will obey your orders!”

“Hope that you can keep your promise and not go back on your words. My relationship with your chief is really deep. Whether you receive a reward or punishment, it is just a matter of my words,” Mu Yuan said calmly. Oh dear, pillow talk is really just so impressive!

Xiao Qiao sneered and said, “Threatening me?”

“Yup!”

“You have guts!”

Xiao Qiao played with the Blood Rose in her hands and said, “Say, what do you want me to do?”

…

When Black Rose received Xiao Qiao’s call, it was already in the wee hours of the morning. Xiao Qiao openly raised up the price. “Five million dollars. Give me the money, and I’ll give you the item.”

“Insatiable greed!”

“If you’re not willing to pay, Shen Qianshu is willing! She inherited Ye Ling’s assets, and five million dollars is nothing to her. However, I am always someone with principles. You can choose first. So, how have you considered? Do you want it?”

Arrogant, dominant, and taking the opportunity to loot and exploit her. She still showed off the manner of a very reasonable person.

It was really maddening.

“I will give you ten seconds to consider.”

“Ten…”

“Nine.”

“Eight!”

…

“Two.”

“Deal!” Black Rose’s cold voice was heard. “Come for the transaction alone at Gu Ning Port.”

“No problem, I want cash!”

“Deal!”

Xiao Qiao hung up the phone, pointed at Mu Yuan, and calmly said, “Let me say this first, I will give you both the item and the person, but the money is mine. You better don’t touch it.”

Mu Yuan looked at her at a loss of words.

This young lady really did not have any principles when it came to money.

“Alright!”

Xiao Qiao was extremely pleased, and she said calmly, “Black Rose has continuously appeared and disappeared for so many years, and no one has seen her real face before. This means that it will not be easy to catch her. So, you have to listen to my hand signals. If not, I can bet that you guys will not be able to catch the real Black Rose.”
