"Yo, Boss Gui, good day. You're quite early," Li Yang said with a smile as he walked towards Gui Bu Nian after checking that his own booth was in order.
Their participation in this Jiangcheng Jade and Jewelry Fair also had another purpose: to clarify with Gui Bu Nian whether he was the one who had schemed against them in the past.
However, Li Yang had already figured this out after visiting the Tianyu Stone Gambling Market that day.
Gui Bu Nian's expression was somewhat displeased. "Hmph, you, Li, you're something else. You've hooked up with a rich woman and become a boss directly. Truly clever."
"Boss Gui, you're just envious and jealous," Li Yang said with a smile. "If you have the ability, find a rich woman yourself. See if she'll even spare you a glance."
"You, you brat, don't get cocky. You'll have a hard time later," Gui Bu Nian gritted his teeth, surprised that his taunts hadn't angered Li Yang but instead had belittled him.
He grunted and directly issued a threat, "I advise you, kid, to keep a close eye on your booth, or you'll face the consequences."
"Boss Gui, are you getting angry already? With such little tolerance, how can you be a boss? No wonder your subordinates are up to so many tricks. They must have screwed you over last time, right?" Li Yang said with a chuckle.
Hearing him mention last time, Gui Bu Nian's face became even more unsightly. He knew he couldn't win an argument with Li Yang, so he grunted and said, "Hmph, we'll see!"
"Go ahead and go, but be careful not to trip," Li Yang said with a smile.
Gui Bu Nian grunted again and turned to leave. As soon as he turned, his head bumped into the mascot doll in front of his booth. With a yelp, he fell to the ground holding the doll.
"Haha." The commotion immediately attracted a lot of attention. Seeing his disheveled state, some people burst into laughter.
Li Yang chuckled, "I already reminded you to watch where you're going, Boss Gui."
"You, hmph!" Gui Bu Nian glared at him angrily, then got up and yelled at his staff, "How did you place the doll? Quickly rearrange it!"
"Yes, Boss." Although the employee had done nothing wrong, he couldn't argue with Gui Bu Nian and could only lower his head, pick up the fallen doll, and place it in a different spot.
Shui Xiang said in a low voice, "What Gui Bu Nian said might not be baseless. Li Yang, we still need to be careful."
"Don't worry, Sister Shui. This guy is despicable and shameless. He wouldn't be so kind as to warn us, even if it's a threat," Li Yang said with a slight smile, his lips curling. "I'm sure his dirty tricks won't be at the booth."
"Then where will it be?" Shui Xiang asked in surprise.
Li Yang shook his head. "Don't pay attention to what he says. If the entire exhibition process is shaken and uneasy because of his words, then that would be falling into his trap."
"When it's time to act, he will definitely act. There's no rush to deal with it when we know then."
"You see things clearly. Otherwise, I would definitely be anxious," Shui Xiang looked at him affectionately.
Her eyes were as captivating as spring water.
If it weren't for the inconvenience of the location, Li Yang would have really wanted to push her onto the floor and deal with her right there and then.
"Sister Shui, I'm going to look around and see what other companies are doing," Li Yang said.
Shui Xiang hummed, "Be careful."
"Don't worry, Sister Shui," Li Yang smiled and looked at the nearby exhibition booths.
The exhibitors here were not only from Jiangcheng's jade and jewelry merchants but also from other regions, and even a few from abroad.
Most of the exhibition booths were similar, and the quality of the items was also comparable. However, one exhibition that showcased modern jewelry and jade ornaments, while also selling antique jewelry, was designed quite differently. It not only had mascot dolls but also hired ancient-costumed real beauties to dance, which was quite eye-catching.
Li Yang couldn't help but stop, not because of the ancient-costumed beauties dancing, but because this place was exceptionally different.
Seeing Li Yang in the distance, Gui Bu Nian's eyes flashed with cold light. He took out his phone and made a call, saying in a low voice, "See the target? If you do, go for it. Make sure he can't get out of bed for at least half a year to a year. Let him know what happens when you offend me!"
"Boss Gui, don't worry. We are professionals when it comes to dirty tricks!" a sinister voice replied from the other end of the phone.
Soon, some people began to approach Li Yang.
With people already behind him, Li Yang was still watching the beautiful dancing. It was indeed a classic Chinese dance, pure yet alluring, dignified yet sexy. No wonder emperors neglected morning court. Anyone who became emperor with this kind of treatment would have their morning court in their sleeping quarters.
"Attack!" Suddenly, the person behind him moved, pulling out a sharp little knife and stabbing towards Li Yang's back!
Some people saw it, their faces changed greatly, and they exclaimed, "Be careful!"
Just as the knife tip was about to pierce Li Yang's clothes and inflict a serious wound, Li Yang suddenly extended a hand, as if he had eyes in the back of his head. Without even turning his head, he grabbed the knife!
What!
The assassin was shocked, never expecting Li Yang to be so formidable!
He immediately intended to abandon the knife and simultaneously pull out another one, aiming for Li Yang's vital points.
However, as soon as he moved, he saw a blur before his eyes. Li Yang had already snatched his knife and swung it at him.
With a "snap," the assassin's belt was cut open, and his pants immediately fell down, revealing a pair of bright red briefs!
"Ah!" The assassin cried out, quickly pulling up his pants and shouting, "Everyone, attack together!"
"Damn it, this kid has some skills!" Several approaching figures changed their expressions and immediately brandished their knives, charging towards Li Yang.
Li Yang's eyes flickered, his arm moved, and the glint of knives flashed rapidly. With several "ding ding ding" sounds, all the knives in their hands were knocked flying!
"My hand!" These assassins cried out in pain, feeling the tiger's mouth on their palms split open.
The onlookers who witnessed this scene widened their eyes in disbelief. "Is this a martial arts movie?"
"Holy crap! Is it real? So powerful?"
"Is this an act?"
"Sir, has something happened?" The person in charge of the convention noticed that something was wrong here and quickly brought people over.
Seeing the knives on the ground, the person in charge's face changed greatly, and he exclaimed, "Security, hurry over!"
"Manager Huang, are you alright?" More than a dozen security guards immediately rushed over and gathered around Manager Huang.
Manager Huang said angrily, "Don't just look at me! Go help that young man!"
"Which one?" The security guards looked at Li Yang and the others, suspecting that Manager Huang was referring to Li Yang. However, Li Yang held a knife, while the others were empty-handed and seemed to be injured. How could it possibly be Li Yang?
Then who was this young man?
