Chapter 999: Chapter 979: A ’Visit’ to the Royal Palace

"Who are you?" Qhianqhian put down the chopsticks, leisurely slung her backpack over her shoulder, and picked up a toothpick on the way, pinching it slightly as she frowned in slight dissatisfaction.

The Boss came out at this time as well: "Brother Huang, what brings you here? You see, our little business is so small..."

"Enough, don’t start anything!" That person directly grabbed Qhianqhian, pulling both Tang Tianyi and her out of the door.

Qhianqhian came out, shaking her head slightly at a few people: "Ah, what a shame, haven’t paid the bill yet."

At this point, even if they go back inside, the boss would probably not dare to collect the money.

The two had ordered quite a few things, but now even if they closed up, the boss certainly wouldn’t dare go out and ask for that money, only able to sigh at his bad luck.

Tang Tianyi looked calm: "The stuff wasn’t fresh, there wouldn’t be much money in it, anyway."

With their taste buds, after Cleansing Marrow, they could even discern differences in plain water, let alone vegetables?

"Going or not?" Conversing as if no one else was around, not paying any attention to these folks at all.

Just then, a hand landed on Qhianqhian’s shoulder, her face darkened even though she hadn’t reacted yet, Tang Tianyi had already struck, kicking the person down, his voice cold: "Don’t touch her with your filthy hands!"

Qhianqhian even unceremoniously extended her foot, stomping hard on the wrist of the hand that was reaching toward her shoulder: "Don’t you know how to respect women?"

The man screamed miserably, using his other hand to grab at Qhianqhian’s ankle.

Qhianqhian lightly leapt, jumping next to Tang Tianyi, making the man grab at empty space.

"You’re really not a gentleman at all." Qhianqhian rolled her eyes, looking at the leader: "What’s your surname, what are you called, why are you here, for what reason, what do you want?"

Upon witnessing the duo’s skills, the man’s eyes darkened slightly, quickly realizing that these two couldn’t be underestimated: "I’m familiar with Tiger Head Gang folks, came to invite you two as guests by our Boss, would you kindly show some face?"

Qhianqhian rolled her eyes in speechless disbelief, looking toward Tang Tianyi.

Tang Tianyi shrugged, looking unconcerned.

"Then let’s go."

The unexpected ease left everyone wide-eyed and speechless; had they known it would be so simple, why bring weapons?

Looking again at the person gripping their wrist, they were all relieved, glad that it wasn’t them who acted; otherwise, wouldn’t they have been injured for nothing?

They all secretly felt puzzled, under normal circumstances, shouldn’t this incident be evident as having malicious intent? Were these siblings fearless or just naïve and innocent?

Not to mention them, even the person escorting them looked bewildered; why make such a fuss and describe them so horrifically over the phone? What happened to no mercy, nine out of ten bones broken?

Though their skills were decent, it definitely didn’t seem as exaggerated as described, right?

Seems their subordinates also had personal agendas...

They brought the pair to a car; though it was ordinary, Qhianqhian didn’t mind much, after all, the back seat was occupied by herself and Tang Tianyi, making it relatively spacious.

Arriving at the location, Qhianqhian almost spat out blood.

Why does this place look so familiar?

Could it be just because they’re back home, these locations need to make their presence felt?

She had intentionally found a place far from home.

It was right next door to Lin Jiayou’s previous workplace.

Looking at the adjacent store, Qhianqhian felt a little guilty, considering she had been conspicuous there before.

Luckily, they safely entered this KTV, named Royal Palace, which sounded appropriately grand.

A new place she hadn’t visited before, seemingly opened within the last year or two.

The main point was, the setting inside had its unique charm; from the ground floor up, it was KTV, with a bar underground, the top two floors being an entertainment hall. Although vowed as entertainment, with dice symbols clearly visible, Qhianqhian could guess it was a casino.

The place wasn’t small, but for the worldly Qhianqhian’s eyes, it also wasn’t large.

They headed straight to the top.

Inside a private room at the top, a bruised and battered young man was looking apologetically at his brother: "Bro, it really has nothing to do with her, it’s just they wouldn’t go with me, I guessed and found someone else, but I really didn’t think it would be so expensive; before I fainted, I really didn’t notice the bracelets were broken, though that counter was broken by me..." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Seduced by a woman? I want to see what kind of woman would make my brother rob for her!" The man was still filled with anger.

Who would’ve thought picking up some stuff could carry such a high price? Why was the wood so expensive for some antique rack? Why does the glass need to be custom-made? Isn’t other people’s counters all bulletproof glass? Why is Nine Heavens Pavilion’s just ordinary glass???

Who would have thought someone would be crazy enough to rob the backstage-heavy Nine Heavens Pavilion?

"Boss, they’re here." Someone knocked on the door, the two immediately silenced.

Qhianqhian and Tang Tianyi walked into the private room with calm faces, without a trace of fear.

This made Wang Zhuo look a bit higher, clearly not people unfamiliar with the world.

Thus implying there might be some savings in their family.

Not even considering that their family might be someone they couldn’t afford to offend.

After all, within their info, those two couldn’t be found with any data.

In their eyes, this merely was proof of nameless juniors.

Qhianqhian calmly sat down, looking at Wang Long on one side, expressing no hint of surprise.

Wang Zhuo signaled with a wave, making his subordinates file out, leaving just four in the room.

But Wang Long was already panicking, the woman he had rarely taken a fancy to; what if because of this, she really doesn’t give him a chance anymore?

"Is there a reason for this? Going through so much trouble to invite us." Qhianqhian’s voice was extremely peaceful, leaning against Tang Tianyi somewhat lazily, simply because she had eaten too much.

"You really told my brother to go get Nine Heavens Pavilion’s Spirit of Jade?" Mentioning this, Wang Zhuo seemed to hate iron for not becoming steel, unable to fully display his emotions; after all, there were outsiders here.

"I didn’t say that." Qhianqhian gazed directly into Wang Zhuo’s eyes, scoffing: "He told me he had money, I said to wait until you buy the Spirit of Jade to prove that you’re rich."

Wang Zhuo looked towards Wang Long, confused, as the information in hand didn’t say that.

Wang Long nodded, yes, that’s how it was said.

He couldn’t understand why his brother had summoned her over.

Instantly, Wang Zhuo’s face darkened.

This Wang Xue, spewing nonsense about such matters? Wanting to ask her to compensate for the loss this time, but what she said had no flaw, right?

Even though they’re gangsters, they still have to follow reason.

"So? Did you buy it?" Qhianqhian asked indifferently: "There’s one more thing I didn’t say, oh, even if you prove you’re very rich, I’m still not interested in you." Because I’m even richer.

After hearing Qhianqhian’s words, Wang Long’s face fell into desolation, and then he looked at Qhianqhian with resentful eyes.

Were it not for her, why would he think of going to get that proof?

If it wasn’t for this, how would it cause his brother to lose a significant amount of money at any time?

Although, he did think of going to buy, having brought several thousand dollars, but he didn’t even see the edge of it.

Who would have thought a mere piece of broken jade could be so valuable?
