Chapter 543 - 543: The Meeting with Hades
Shortly after, Jian Yunzhou’s car arrived and stopped outside the Sheng residence. Only after seeing Rong Qi fully enter did Ye Nanshen divert his gaze. He said, “Let’s go.”
A convoy of luxury cars left Clearcreek Mansion, creating an impressive scene.
Sheng Jian, who was having breakfast, raised an eyebrow as Rong Qi entered. He asked, “Not going to the company with your husband today?”
Rong Qi shook her head, “No, I have something to do.”
She approached Sheng Jian.
Sheng Jian sipped his congee and said, “You coming alone must mean trouble. What do you need my help with? I enjoy opposing your husband. Anything that makes him uncomfortable makes me happy.”
Sheng Jian’s happiness was that simple: deriving joy from Ye Nanshen’s troubles.
Rong Qi frowned and, without a word, swiftly knocked Sheng Jian out with a karate chop.
“I need you to quietly cover for me,” said Rong Qi.
Whistling, Rong Qi signaled Jian Yunzhou, who entered through another window. Together, they carried Sheng Jian upstairs and stuffed him into a wardrobe.
Jian Yunzhou asked, “Will this work? Why knock him out?”
Rong Qi explained, “He has too much free time and likes to keep an eye on me. I can only meet the Seven Sinisters with him out of the way.”
“Okay, let’s go,” said Jian Yunzhou, with a slight frown, gesturing to Rong Qi.
Nodding, Rong Qi stepped out and instructed the butler, “Mr. Sheng is teaching me how to identify gemstones. No interruptions.”
The butler readily agreed.
To Sheng Jian’s servants, Rong Qi was like a daughter to their master, entitled to all the privileges of a Sheng family daughter. They were almost always at her beck and call.
Rong Qi, lacking the strength to confront the Seven Sinisters in Leucia, had called on Jian Yunzhou for backup. The pair quickly jumped out the window, disappearing from the Sheng residence.
At Dock Number One, both sides were already in full readiness when Rong Qi arrived. Neither side was willing to back down, eyeing each other warily.
“Sukie, the people from the Seven Sinisters are here. Hades himself has come.” Shangguan Ze reported.
“What? The leader of the Seven Sinisters?” Rong Qi asked. Surprise flashed in her eyes.
She had expected only a representative, not the leader himself.
Hades, the decisive and ruthless leader of the Seven Sinisters, had never shown himself in public. Today, he had come personally.
Rong Qi narrowed her eyes, smiled, and said, “It seems I am indeed quite valuable.”
“Of course, a bounty of a billion dollars is unbeaten to date! Even the leader of the Midnight Order, who topped the hit list for eight years, is second to you,” Shangguan Ze teased. “Even the life of the Midnight Order’s leader is valued at only eight billion. You’re the first to surpass Shadow Eater.”
Rong Qi sighed. She hadn’t expected that. After checking the time, she said, “It’s about time. I’m going in.”
“Be careful,” Shangguan Ze warned, suddenly serious. He pulled out a Desert Eagle and handed it to Rong Qi.
Rong Qi glanced at it and said, “Too heavy, give me another.”
Reluctantly, Shangguan Ze handed her a Browning pistol he had on his waist.
Satisfied, Rong Qi took it and walked towards the meeting. The members of the Seven Sinisters watched her approach, their eyes vigilant, following her every step..
