Chapter 1197: Sister Bai
Binlai City's Wanqing Mansion.
Xia Liu silently appeared in the chairman's office.
The formerly simple office now seemed much warmer and brighter.
The long-haired girl sitting at the desk had changed her usual demeanor and was seriously browsing through files, occasionally signing her name.
Yanzi had taken over Wanqing Group for quite some time now.
Recently, she had finally completed the full takeover of the large corporation.
After working the whole day, she felt a bit tired, lifting her body to take a deep breath.
That saturation continued to rise, instantly transforming the scenery within the office.
"Impressive!"
Suddenly, a mischievous voice rang out from the sofa.
Yanzi froze instantly.
She didn't retract her action, quietly watching the figure that had appeared inexplicably.
"OMG! When did you get here!"
Confirming it was Xia Liu, Yanzi screamed out.
She used to mix in the Underground Assassin World, and now she also had cultivation.
Yet she didn't know when Xia Liu arrived at the office.
His strength had grown stronger!
"For an hour or two, I saw you working so seriously that I couldn't bear to disturb you."
Xia Liu gave an evil grin, an hour or two? He had just come in less than ten minutes ago.
"You're awesome!"
Yanzi gave him a thumbs up, Xia Liu was invincible, truly invincible.
"By the way, brother-in-law, how is Sister Rose doing lately? Has her cultivation improved?"
Yanzi had been busy with the company's matters and hadn't been to Osmanthus Village for a long time now.
"Should have improved, but I'm not very sure."
The Spiritual Energy on Guo Family's island is much denser than outside, over such a long time, the talented girls should have improved, right?
"You're not sure!"
"Exactly, Rose and the others are all cultivating in Harbor City. I just returned to Binlai recently."
"You just came back from Harbor City?"
"No, I have other things to do. I came to find you today mainly for some consultation."
Xia Liu felt a headache. If this girl kept probing, he'd have to prepare some excuses.
Yanzi, confused, signaled Xia Liu to explain.
"I need over a hundred pieces of genuine jade. Does Wanqing Group have any?"
"Over a hundred pieces of genuine jade? Is this for a wedding gift for the sisters?"
Yanzi suddenly got interested, Xia Liu had a plan.
"Uh, you could say that too. Quickly give me some surprises."
Xia Liu rubbed his palms together, looking expectantly.
Yanzi shook her head!
Despite chatting so well, she actually shook her head!
"Yanzi, don't trick me, otherwise I'll mercilessly tease you!!"
"Brother-in-law, how would I dare trick you? The company mainly deals with real estate and other investments, there's no jade business. If you need jade, you have to go to Nanyun City."
Yanzi's face was sullen. She was only interested in the keepsake, not the jade.
"Oh? Are there genuine jades over in Nanyun City?"
Xia Liu knew he came to the right place.
Since taking over Wanqing Group, this girl has gotten to know a lot about various industries.
"Of course there are. Though Nanyun City isn't the main production area for jade, it has many resources, and it hosts the largest jade trade market in Huaxia. With your cultivation, finding the desired jade there wouldn't be too hard, would it?"
Seeing Xia Liu's hopeful eyes, Yanzi rolled her eyes.
"Alright, I'll go to Nanyun City. Can you help me find someone to guide me?"
The largest jade trade market in Huaxia, Xia Liu had a hunch he would find what he needed there.
"Of course I can do that."
"Good Yanzi!"
"Get lost! Don't come near me!"
Seeing Xia Liu opening his arms and laughing as he approached, Yanzi immediately fled.
"Don't panic. I'm not a beast, nor am I a bad guy."
"Brother-in-law, I'm just a little girl of eighteen with a few extra months, don't bully me, okay?"
"Pfft!"
Xia Liu was somewhat dumbfounded but stopped messing around and let Yanzi make arrangements for him.
After a round of phone calls, Yanzi handed Xia Liu a piece of paper with information about this guide.
"Sister Bai? Is she very old?"
Looking at the name on the paper, Xia Liu was puzzled; Yanzi couldn't possibly be trying to get back at him by finding an old lady to guide him?
"What do you think?"
"How would I know…"
Seeing Yanzi's mischievous smile, Xia Liu sensed trouble.
"See for yourself when you get there. I'll have someone book you a flight, you should arrive by tomorrow."
"No need, I'll just fly there myself."
Watching the sky outside, which was almost engulfed in darkness, Xia Liu waved his hand.
"Fly yourself? Are you joking, how would you fly?"
Yanzi nearly spat blood.
Fly, with no wings!
"Yanzi, cultivate properly, and you can do this too someday. Watch carefully!"
Xia Liu's Divine Sense activated, and instantly, the Flowing Fire Sword burst forth.
With the floor-to-ceiling window open, Xia Liu stepped onto the Flowing Fire Sword and soared across the sky.
...
Seeing this miraculous scene, Yanzi was dumbfounded.
Xia Liu actually flew!
He really flew off!
...
Nanyun City, a border city in Huaxia.
Adjacent to Burma.
Due to geographic reasons, certain parts of Nanyun City enjoy spring-like weather all year round, with exceptionally beautiful scenery.
As the capital of the Southern Province, Nanyun City is a hub for countless fortune seekers, entrepreneurs, and workers.
It is also a famous tourist destination in the Southern Province.
Xia Liu wasn't really dumb enough to fly to Nanyun City.
With his current cultivation, flying thousands of miles.
He'd have to replenish Spiritual Energy several times.
The plane landed at Nanyun City airport a little after six in the early morning.
Feeling refreshed, Xia Liu walked out of the airport, searching for the guide Yanzi had arranged for him.
But after looking around, he couldn't find anyone.
Tall and slim, long hair, carrying a backpack…
There wasn't a guide to be seen!
Just as Xia Liu was about to call the number on the paper.
Suddenly, a girl dressed provocatively walked towards him.
Her black, long hair was sleek, with a slender and graceful posture, standing tall and elegant.
Her facial features were quite delicate, and those big, captivating eyes were hard to look away from.
She walked straight up to Xia Liu.
"Are you Xia Liu?"
The girl asked coldly.
"Yes, are you Sister Bai?"
"Yes! I am your Sister Bai!"
The girl suddenly shouted.
Her boss mentioned this guy would be arriving within two hours last night.
As a result, Bai Xiang rushed over from school.
However, she waited all night here without seeing Xia Liu.
She waited at the airport all night, naturally having a temper.
Xia Liu, unfortunately, ran into her at the worst time.
"Uh, don't get excited. What happened?"
Xia Liu was startled by Bai Xiang. It should be the first time he met her, why was her temper so bad? He didn't owe her money, nor did he ever sleep with her, right?
"Nothing, just follow me."
Seeing Xia Liu's distressed face, Bai Xiang's mood suddenly calmed down, realizing the fault wasn't with Xia Liu, she chose to forgive this late-arriving client.
