You Xiao Ren was stunned once again. This brat was pushing his luck. She had already doubled his money, and now he wanted her to compensate him for his "good time"?
Other things could be compensated.
But how could one compensate for something like this?
She quickly realized that this Cheng Xiao Fan was simply a greedy and reckless fellow, wanting to take this opportunity to extort more money.
She had no choice but to suppress her anger and asked, "Cheng Xiao Fan, I admit I interrupted your good time with your girlfriend. I admit I was wrong. Name your price!"
Cheng Xiao Fan chuckled and said, "You Xiao Ren, from your tone, I can tell you've never been in love, nor have you ever been with a real man."
"What I want to tell you is that such things cannot be measured by money!"
"Then what do you want?" You Xiao Ren and Cheng Xiao Fan were eager to talk about finding Ye Thirteen, but he was dragging the conversation further and further away.
Her patience was almost at its breaking point.
Cheng Xiao Fan heard this and said, "Some things are meant to be understood, not explained. Why are you forcing me to be so clear?"
"You know I'm a shy person, it's really embarrassing to speak of it."
"Fortunately, we're separated by a phone call. If you really force me to speak frankly, then I'll have to be direct!"
"Just come to my backyard and give me a kiss, and we'll call it even!"
A kiss?
In the instant You Xiao Ren was confused, she immediately understood what was going on.
This guy claimed to be shy, but his skin was thicker than a city wall! My heavens, he even had the nerve to propose such a condition.
"You... Cheng Xiao Fan, what do you take the sect leader of my Hidden Black Sect for?"
She was so angry she was about to completely lose it. "Do you believe I'll kill you!"
Cheng Xiao Fan couldn't help but chuckle.
He loved seeing her so infuriated, yet utterly helpless against him.
Facing the ruthless leader of the Hidden Black Sect, who had dozens of lives on her hands, Cheng Xiao Fan wasn't going to show her any mercy.
Cheng Xiao Fan said faintly to You Xiao Ren, "You Xiao Ren, if you kill me, you can forget about ever finding Ye Thirteen for the rest of your life!"
"I'll tell you the truth, You Xiao Ren. As long as Ye Thirteen is still in the vicinity of Zhuxi Village, there's no one I can't find!"
"Besides me, no one else has this ability!"
"..." Cheng Xiao Fan's words made You Xiao Ren fall silent.
According to the information she had, Ye Thirteen had appeared in the Zhuxi Village area when Nan Shan Lake was experiencing some kind of dragon aura. He must have come here, like other rogue cultivators, wanting to obtain the dragon aura from the lake to improve his cultivation realm.
In You Xiao Ren's mind, Ye Thirteen must have already obtained the dragon aura and was now in hiding nearby, cultivating.
Moreover, he had already made a significant breakthrough.
It was precisely because of this that You Xiao Ren had personally brought over a dozen experts to capture Ye Thirteen at any cost.
As she was contemplating these matters, Cheng Xiao Fan's voice reached her ears again: "You Xiao Ren, my patience is limited. If you don't give me a clear answer soon, I'm hanging up."
"Wait!"
You Xiao Ren, fearing that Cheng Xiao Fan would hang up and cause more trouble, quickly said, "I agree to your condition!"
Cheng Xiao Fan heard this and burst out laughing, saying, "You Xiao Ren, I knew you would agree. To get Ye Thirteen, you couldn't refuse!"
"Quick, call me 'husband'!"
You Xiao Ren said angrily, "Cheng Xiao Fan, please don't go too far!"
Cheng Xiao Fan immediately said, "Miss, you agreed to that kind of thing, so asking you to call me 'husband' is completely reasonable."
"If you don't agree, then forget it!"
Hearing this, You Xiao Ren, afraid of offending Cheng Xiao Fan and making him throw a tantrum again, said urgently, "Fine, fine, fine. I agree, husband!"
Cheng Xiao Fan repeatedly shook his head and said, "That didn't sound intimate enough. It sounded like you were being forced to say it, which makes me uncomfortable!"
"Say it again, I want to hear it!"
You Xiao Ren was so angry her eyes were about to roll back.
If Cheng Xiao Fan were in front of her, she would have wanted to bite him to death!
This was simply too much!
But!
She had no choice but to comply.
You Xiao Ren suppressed the anger churning in her belly and replied, "Fine, fine, fine. I'll say it again, husband!"
Cheng Xiao Fan's tone was filled with considerable dissatisfaction, "That was too forced. Be gentler!"
You Xiao Ren gritted her teeth in front of her subordinates, suppressing the rage that was about to erupt, and said, "My dearest husband, you are so handsome, I love you!"
Cheng Xiao Fan heard this and burst into laughter, saying, "Good, beautiful girl. Next, I'll be waiting for you to put your words into action. Do you understand what I, Cheng, mean?"
"I understand!"
You Xiao Ren knew that this guy's ability to discern people by voice was incredibly uncanny. She had to force a smile and say, "But can I wait until you find Ye Thirteen before I act?"
Cheng Xiao Fan quickly replied, "That won't do. In front of me, you have no right to set conditions. Everything must be according to my arrangements!"
"Besides, you're the one begging me, not the other way around. Everything I say is the rule!"
Hearing this, You Xiao Ren was so angry she almost ground her teeth to dust. She knew that if she wanted Cheng Xiao Fan to help her find Ye Thirteen, she was trapped.
She gritted her teeth and asked, "Tell me, what time have you set?"
Cheng Xiao Fan said with a shameless tone, "I've always been a tender and protective man. To give you ample time to prepare, let's make it tomorrow night."
"Come directly to the backyard of Zhuxi Village to find me tomorrow."
"Oh, right. Transfer twenty million US dollars to me tonight. I'll immediately send you my bank card account!"
After speaking, Cheng Xiao Fan decisively hung up the phone and sent his bank account information to You Xiao Ren.
You Xiao Ren had no way to deal with Cheng Xiao Fan.
Before seeing Ye Thirteen, she was really reluctant to transfer twenty million US dollars directly to Cheng Xiao Fan.
After all, it was a considerable sum of money!
But!
She also knew very well that if she didn't do as Cheng Xiao Fan said, he would definitely not help the Hidden Black Sect find Ye Thirteen.
She gritted her teeth again and transferred twenty million US dollars to Cheng Xiao Fan's account.
"Sect Leader You, are we being scammed by that brat surnamed Cheng Xiao Fan?" one of her subordinates asked You Xiao Ren.
You Xiao Ren gritted her teeth, her beautiful eyes glaring, and said resentfully, "He dares? The person who dares to scam this sect leader in this world hasn't been born yet!"
Another subordinate said, "That's right. Who doesn't know Sect Leader You's skills? If that brat dares to deceive Sect Leader You, he's seeking death!"
A third subordinate immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes! With Cheng Xiao Fan's mediocre skills, he's surely dead if he dares to challenge Sect Leader You!"
