44 -44 Not Interested in Working for You
“You should get some sleep, I’m leaving.” After taking Lin Mengru back to her room, Su Xuan hurried out.
The next day.
Approaching the intersection, Su Xuan stopped to wait for the red light when suddenly, a black sedan charged towards him, not slowing down.
Su Xuan turned his head, his eyes widening in shock at the car that was bearing down on him.
The car charged onto the curb, causing pedestrians to run in all directions in fright.
Su Xuan took several steps back, glaring at the plateless sedan, and couldn’t help but shout in anger, “Damn, a road assassin?!
You’re driving up onto the sidewalk!”
In the blink of an eye, four men in suits with sunglasses leaped out of the car, all bearing the same grim expressions.
It was then that Su Xuan realized these men must be after him.
With a guarded look of hesitation, he faced the four men approaching him and asked in confusion, “Are you looking for me?”
The man in the middle nodded, his tone cold as he said, “Please come with us for a moment, our boss would like to see you.”
“Your boss?
You’ve got the wrong person, right?” Su Xuan feigned ignorance, knowing this behavior could not possibly be a case of mistaken identity—they were definitely here for him.
“Please.” One of the men opened the rear car door, his tone slightly respectful.
Standing there, Su Xuan couldn’t help but wonder: Who could be looking for me?
An enemy?
That doesn’t seem right.
Besides Chen Wanqing, I don’t know any bosses.
If it’s fortune, it will come; if it’s disaster, it cannot be avoided.
Su Xuan made a decisive choice and got into the back of the car.
The sedan sped away, leaving the city center behind and heading to an upscale residential area on the outskirts of the city.
It stopped in front of a three-story detached villa, and the four men got out of the car, opening the door for Su Xuan.
“Sir, please.”
A trace of a smile flickered across Su Xuan’s lips as he thought: Not bad, quite polite!
Exiting the car, he saw the stylish villa, its front garden lush with flowers and foliage, complete with a small artificial hill, while a golden sign hinted at the unusual status of the homeowner.
“Woof woof woof!” A fierce white Labrador barked a few times from behind the fence, startling Su Xuan unexpectedly.
A woman dressed like a maid opened the round archway, and the four men walked alongside Su Xuan toward the villa.
“Boss.”
Once inside the living room, the men approached a tall middle-aged man and greeted him.
Su Xuan watched the mysterious boss’s back with suspicion.
The boss turned around with a smile, and the moment Su Xuan saw his face, a flicker of surprise crossed his heart as he said with a blank laugh, “And here I was wondering who it might be.”
“Please take a seat.
How should I address you?” Wu, smiling faintly, approached Su Xuan, a far cry from his mean and aggressive demeanor from the night before in the bar.
“I’m Su Xuan.”
“Hmm, friends call me Wu.” Wu revealed his nickname, known in Qingshan City’s underworld—a name familiar to many there.
Su Xuan eyed Wu with interest, then his expression turned stern, “If I’m not mistaken, did you send someone to follow me last night?”
“Heh heh, young man, you’re very clever,” Wu said with a laugh as he lit a cigar, tacitly confirming Su Xuan’s suspicion.
“Hey, I told you last night, I didn’t mean to start a fight in your place.
I don’t have money to compensate you, so finding me is pointless,” Su Xuan said in a confident tone, speaking evenly as his mood quickly returned to calm.
Wu chuckled and waved his hand, inhaling deeply from his cigar, and with a look of admiration said to Su Xuan, “Brother, you’ve misunderstood me.
I had people follow you without any ill intent, and it’s not about seeking compensation from you.”
Wu’s attitude was vastly different from last night, which set Su Xuan’s mind beating like a drum: Is this guy plotting against me?
Could he be nothing but a smiling tiger?
“Oh, if that’s the case, why did you want to see me?” Su Xuan asked with a forced smile that didn’t reach his eyes.
“I’ve got a full understanding of last night’s incident.
I don’t blame you, and you don’t owe me a penny,” Wu announced, seemingly wanting to turn a confrontation with Su Xuan into a reconciliation.
Su Xuan didn’t continue the conversation.
He preferred straightforwardness, but alas, Wu was someone who liked to beat around the bush.
The smile on Wu’s face faded as he clicked his tongue, “Kid, you’re very skilled. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
I saw it all last night, and the reason I’ve summoned you today is to have a talk.”
“A talk about what?
Wanting me to join you from now on?” A sinister smile appeared on Su Xuan’s face.
Clapping his hands, Wu praised, “You’re indeed a smart one!
Spot on!”
“Overpraised.”
After snuffing out the cigar in a custom ashtray, Wu spoke with a grave tone, eyes filled with longing, “Name your price.
As long as you follow me, I guarantee you’ll have more money than you can spend and more women than you can sleep with.”
To anyone else, such an offer would be tempting, but Su Xuan merely smiled indifferently, entirely unmoved.
With a smile on his face and feigning hesitation, Su Xuan felt a growing disdain for Wu: Me, become your underling?
That’s a joke!
Are you even worthy?!
“What do you say, kid?
Think it over,” Wu said with a smile, seeing Su Xuan remaining silent.
Su Xuan curled his lip, “If I agree, what exactly will I have to do?”
“Whatever I tell you to do,” Wu stated, his gaze hardening with a ruthlessness that comes from years of surviving bloodshed.
The implication in Wu’s words couldn’t be clearer: once you’re with me, if I order you to kill or set fires, to scale mountains or dive into seas of fire, you must obey my commands.
Su Xuan laughed out loud, firstly, at Wu’s craftiness for tracking him and seemingly sincerely inviting him over, and secondly, at Wu’s naivety in believing that money could buy anyone’s loyalty.
Hearing Su Xuan’s abrupt laughter, Wu’s face soured considerably as he asked in bewilderment, “What are you laughing at?”
“Nothing,” Su Xuan replied.
He didn’t want to be too harsh since Wu hadn’t played it rough, and it was only right to give him some face.
After giving Wu a serious look, Su Xuan stood up and said, “I know you’re a big shot in the underworld, but I’m not interested in that life, nor am I keen on working for you.”
Wu, taken aback by the young man’s extraordinary defiance, fumed within: This kid’s got some nerve!
“I’m leaving, no need to see me out.”
With a casual remark, Su Xuan coolly walked toward the front door, sneering to himself, “This guy really thinks he’s something.
He wants me to be his dog?
Dream on.”
The four underlings, seeing Su Xuan’s disrespect towards Wu, were filled with rage and darted in front of Su Xuan, blocking his way.
Su Xuan snorted and turned to look at Wu, “Your guys really don’t know their place.
They think they can stop me?”
