Chapter 953: Chapter 963: Open Provocation (Part 2)
Avril Jolie, short of money?
Clearly impossible!
With her family’s assets, a few hundred million is nothing.
William, short of money?
Clearly impossible too.
Although he’s not as wealthy as Avril, he’s the Peak Soldier King!
A few hundred million is pocket change for him too.
Of course, he may now have assets only in the tens of billions because, at his level, he’s indifferent to money, as long as he has enough for daily use.
More than that, there isn’t much use!
Besides, if he wants money, it would flow in at an alarmingly fast speed.
And if he desires something, many people would be willing to bring money his way.
What’s more, Avril would never let him be short of money.
Afterward, Lin Xi had no choice but to give the account number, feeling that backing out now wasn’t quite right.
He’s the sort of person who keeps his words!!!!
Hmm, he still felt quite regretful in his heart.
Only now did he realize that these two were never short of money, or rather, they were the kind of people who didn’t care about money at all.
However, they didn’t care, but Lin Xi did.
He, after all, had so many wives to take care of!
How could there possibly be less money?
Besides, he wasn’t the kind of person who didn’t care about money; he cared a lot!!!
Because he believed in one saying!
Money can make the devil turn the mill, money can make the devil turn the mill!!!
Thinking of the old days, the old man only gave him a little funding, just enough for travel expenses back and forth, staying could only afford the cheapest, and meals could only be had at little roadside eateries.
Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean that food at small shops is bad.
But in terms of accommodation, a small hotel couldn’t compare to a five-star international hotel.
After giving the account number, Lin Xi also handed William two Bone Refining Pills, two Qi Storage Pills, and two Small Returning Pills on the spot.
After hearing the introduction of the pills, William regarded them as treasures, eager to take a Bone Refining Pill immediately.
At the same time, he understood why the four elders of the Shangguan family all broke through to the Innate Realm.
It turned out they had taken the pills.
After hearing the introduction of these pills, Avril Jolie immediately said to Lin Xi, "I’ll buy as many as you have!"
Moreover, at the original price!
Even if the price is a bit higher, it’s not impossible to negotiate.
Lin Xi was very tempted by this.
But he still refused.
He didn’t want too many of these pills to spread abroad, not even to Avril’s family.
After all, he was only familiar with Avril and William and didn’t know anyone else in their family, nor what their family did.
So even if he loved money, he wouldn’t sell them.
Moreover, a Bone Refining Pill can only be used once, so among the two just given to William, one could be used by Avril.
Watching these scenes from start to finish, Dili Bare and Xie Ziqi seemed to have their perspective completely overturned.
"Are these three really not having a breakout of some juvenile delusion?"
"If not, then it’s really scary!"
"Especially those three pills Lin Xi just mentioned, they are exactly like those in cultivation novels."
At the same time, the two became more curious about Lin Xi.
How could this person even have pills?
Does that mean this person is also a Daoist?
In their opinion, only Daoists could perform alchemy.
"The person should be coming soon!" Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts, Lin Xi suddenly said in a low voice.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door, three times in succession.
Avril Jolie frowned, "Why is someone here at this time?"
She was very familiar with this restaurant!
Once the dishes were served, there would be no disturbance.
Unless you have time to call for a waiter.
Otherwise, your private room would absolutely remain quiet.
Yet now it was broken?
Did something happen to the restaurant?
You should know, even if there were conflicts in other private rooms or for some other reasons, they would never disturb other rooms.
"As expected!" Lin Xi thought to himself.
He roughly understood what was going on.
During their conversation just now, which involved the Peak Soldier King breaking through to the Innate level, he used his own aura to affect the pinhole cameras, cancelling out sound and obfuscating the picture at critical moments.
So the secrets discussed in the private room were never discovered by those monitoring the place.
Given time, surely those outside would have lost their patience.
William stood up and walked toward the door.
As soon as he opened the door, he was stunned and stepped aside to let the people outside, about twenty of them, half of whom walked in.
The room was large enough that it didn’t seem crowded even with those ten or so.
In fact, even if everyone came in, it wouldn’t feel crowded.
"Wells?" As soon as Avril Jolie saw the person leading, she jumped up from her seat.
In front of her stood a man who looked a year or two older than her, blocking their path.
This man was about six feet tall, with features somewhat resembling hers, and exuding a noble air all over him.
It was clear he wasn’t an ordinary person, nor someone from a gang.
In terms of appearance and stature, there was nothing to nitpick.
He was even more handsome than the dashing William.
"What are you doing here?" Avril frowned, "How did you know I was here?"
"Who told you?"
She knew the security level of this restaurant was extremely high.
The man named Wales wore an unkind expression on his face and snorted coldly, "First, you should call me brother, not ’hey’ or ’ah’ or anything like that!"
"Didn’t the teacher teach you any manners?"
"As for why I am here, is it so strange?"
"And why I know you’re here, is that so strange too?"
At this point, he paused and continued, "Who told me?"
"There’s no need to say any further at this point!"
"Otherwise, what decency remains!!"
Lin Xi, Dili Bare, and Xie Ziqi sat on the side, saying nothing.
This seemed like family affairs!
They saw no need to meddle in it; otherwise, they’d likely get unexpected trouble in return!
William returned to Avril’s side, standing guard beside her.
After hearing Wells’ words, Avril began to explode.
"I don’t care what your mentality is finding us here and bringing so many people; what exactly are you trying to do?"
"If there’s nothing else, please leave first."
Otherwise, I’ll call the police.
"So unwelcome, my dear sister?" Wells found a chair beside the table and sat down.
He was conveniently sitting between Avril and Lin Xi, appearing leisurely.
He clearly did not regard Avril’s warning at all.
