Chapter 1492: Who Wouldn’t be Tempted by a Million Yuan?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As the old saying goes, a leopard can’t change its spots.
If one did not experience a particularly huge change, it was very difficult to change a person’s personality.
Since the navigation system had led him here and allowed him to obtain this information from Jiang Xiaoyan, it did not do so recklessly.
He immediately bid farewell to Jiang Xiaoyan.
Jiang Xiaoyan walked him out of the apartment building and watched his car leave. Her eyes were filled with reluctance.
He had already driven far away, but he could still see that she was still standing there in the rearview mirror.
No way! Could it be that she fell in love with him after such a short period of contact?
This could not help but increase his confidence in his charm.
However, he quickly thought of what Jiang Xiaoyan had said. After thinking for a moment, he dialed Cheng Fei’er’s phone and asked her to help check Lan Xingyue’s resume.
Cheng Fei’er had already returned to the security team’s headquarters. When she heard that he wanted to investigate a woman’s background, she could not help but tease him. “Do you have any impure intentions towards her?”
“Don’t think too much about it. My purpose is very simple. I’m just curious.”
“Hehe, when a man is curious about a woman, his motive is already not simple.”
“Is that so? Then I’m also very curious about you.”
“I’m not interested in you stinky men.”
“So you’re saying that you have the same hobby as me? You like women too?”
“F*ck you. Who said I like women?”
“You don’t like men or women. Could it be that you don’t like people, but…”
“You can’t spit out ivory from a dog’s mouth. Go to hell!”
“Pa…”
Cheng Fei’er hung up the phone angrily, Ye Feng could even imagine how she was gritting her teeth and could not help but laugh.
At this moment, a system notification sounded in his ear. “Congratulations to the host for completing the navigation opportunity. System reward: Smart (Empire of the Sun) Information Consulting Company, valuation: 8 billion…”
When Ye Feng heard the system reward, he was so shocked that he could not close his mouth.
The value of the reward this time was as high as eight billion, and it was a company located in the Empire of the Sun.
Did he have to make a trip to the Empire of the Sun?
However, it was also good. After he came out of the Xiang King’s secret treasure, it would be time to rest for a while.
It would be a good time to experience the style of the Empire of the Sun.
Perhaps he could even have a few romantic encounters.
Putting aside his vacation thoughts for the time being, he began to think about Lan Xingyue again.
The two of them did not have much contact. Other than that exploration mission and the rescue, they had not interacted with each other again, so he did not trust her 100%.
Entering the Xiang King’s secret treasure was a very dangerous thing. He had to understand this person clearly before he could make a decision.
Of course, he also hoped that he was too sensitive. That would be the best.
No matter what, he had to sound her out first.
Having made up his mind, he stopped letting his imagination run wild. Soon, he arrived at the cafe where he had agreed to meet Lan Xingyue.
Lan Xingyue was sitting by the window. She was wearing a set of loose casual clothes and looked very casual.
When Ye Feng walked into the cafe, he saw a man in a suit talking to her.
But Lan Xingyue ignored him.
That person had no choice but to leave resentfully.
Ye Feng smiled as he walked over. “It seems like you are quite popular, people are hitting on you anytime and anywhere?”
Lan Xingyue stirred the coffee with a spoon and smiled disdainfully. “They’re just lustful.”
“That at least proves that you have the looks. Many women don’t have the looks to make people lustful.” Ye Feng teased her while sitting opposite her.
“Are you saying that I’m just a pretty vase?”
Lan Xingyue’s beautiful eyes stared straight at him. It was impossible to tell if she was angry or not.
“Even if you’re a pretty vase, you’re the kind of vase that has both strength and looks.”
Ye Feng flattered her.
Lan Xingyue’s lips curled into a beautiful shape. “You’re so good with words today. Do you have something you want from me?”
“Not only are you strong and good-looking, but you’re also so smart. It’s really rare.” Ye Feng shook his head again.
“Alright, it’s a little cheesy if you keep talking like this. If there’s anything you came here for, just say it.” Lan Xingyue rubbed her arms, looking like she couldn’t take it anymore.
Ye Feng stopped smiling and looked at her seriously. “I have an exploration mission recently, I might need your help.”
“Exploration mission? I haven’t heard of any exploration missions from the company.” Lan Xingyue was confused.
“It’s not a company mission. It’s a private exploration organized by me.”
“Your personal exploration mission? Exploration for what? Gold? Silver? Iron? Copper? A coal mine?”
“I can’t say for the time being.” Ye Feng did not tell her about Xiang King’s secret treasure immediately, he had to keep it to himself until the last moment.
“Is it dangerous?” Lan Xingyue hesitated for a moment and asked another question.
“It might be, but I will try my best to minimize the danger. And the reward this time is very generous. The minimum is one million. If you are injured during the exploration, you will receive double or even more.” Ye Feng gave a condition that no one could refuse.
“A guaranteed reward of one million? This is tens of times more than what we usually get for missions. I’m curious what you’re going to explore. Did you find a gold mine?” Lan Xingyue looked at Ye Feng with a probing gaze, as if she wanted to find the answer.
“I can’t tell you that for the time being. If you agree to participate, I can only tell you after you sign the confidentiality agreement. Think about it carefully.” Ye Feng purposely kept her in suspense. He was not in a hurry and asked the waiter for a cup of coffee.
Lan Xingyue stirred the coffee with a spoon and took a sip. “If it were anyone else, I definitely wouldn’t have accepted the mission if they didn’t tell me the details in advance. However, since it was you who suggested it, I choose to believe you this once. I hope I didn’t trust the wrong person.”
“So, you agree?” Ye Feng did not expect her to answer so quickly, he was surprised.
“Why not?” Lan Xingyue put down her coffee and looked at him with a smile.
“You believe in me that much?” Ye Feng stared into her eyes as if he could see through to her heart.
“I believe in… Money. A million yuan. Who wouldn’t be tempted?” Lan Xingyue’s eyes flashed with a hint of craftiness. It was hard to tell if she was speaking from the bottom of her heart or joking.
“So it’s not because of me? Sigh, I’m overthinking things.” Ye Feng sighed in disappointment.
Lan Xingyue showed a rare bashful expression. “It’s fine if you want to think so.”
Ye Feng saw her current state and was stunned.
It had to be said that at this moment, she was simply beautiful.
Just as he was about to be mesmerized by her beauty and unable to extricate himself, he suddenly sensed something unusual.
