Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Ma Si heard this, he was so angry that he laughed. "This is all part of the plan to give himself a way out, but he could turn around and tell everyone that he had been most magnanimous and dignified. It's shameful."
"Don't talk too much!"
Ma Si said this and turned to leave.
Luo Tianhao's voice came from behind him. "Remember, this offer only stands for three days. After three days, even if you kneel in front of me, I won't agree to it.
"Stay away from my daughter. Otherwise, who knows what might happen."
Luo Tianhao's indifferent voice came from behind. It was neither hurried nor slow as if he was speaking to the air. However, the threat in his tone was heavy.
Ma Si's footsteps paused slightly. He turned his head and smiled. "I'm still me. I won't change because of anyone."
"As for Si Jiafeng's threat, I'll take it. I hope that you won't regret it in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Bang!"
The sound of a heavy door slamming rang out.
"Young man, you have some personality!"
Luo Tianhao smiled and shook his head slightly.
He was calling it a personality, but in his opinion, it was just an impulse.
So what if he waited?
He could casually take out ten million USD, and his wealth could even reach the gods.
Moreover, this world did not rely on wealth to speak, but... power.
If you had money, you would have power, but strength did not necessarily mean power.
Young and vigorous!
Outside the door.
Ma Si left without looking back. Ten million dollars...? ... was that a lot?
Besides, what could he do with those ten million dollars?
Suddenly.
Ma Si was about to press the elevator button when the elevator opened.
"Ding!"
The sound of the elevator rang out and the elevator door opened.
In the elevator.
"Ma Si, why are you here?"
Luo Tianyi looked at Ma Si with wide eyes and asked.
"Oh, I'm done eating. I'll be leaving first. The food was great."
Ma Si explained himself and then complimented the food.
"Really? I think it's very delicious too. It seems that you don't have any dietary restrictions. It just so happens that I don't either.
"My father said that today's dishes were ordered according to my taste, so your taste is about the same as mine."
After saying that, Luo Tianyi's face suddenly turned red. She hurriedly lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes shyly, not daring to look at Ma Si anymore.
She suddenly realized that her words had been a little too explicit, too obvious.
"I just want to say... I just want to say... Ahhh, I'm not going to talk to you anymore!"
Luo Tianyi could not think of anything when she said this. She stomped her feet shyly and ran away with small steps.
Ma Si looked at the situation and shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Sigh, is this the trouble of being handsome?"
Although Luo Tianyi was good-looking, Ma Si did not like other people just because they were good-looking.
He was also very troubled by this situation.
"Forget it, let's not think about this anymore!"
Ma Si shook his head. He could sense that Luo Tianyi had some feelings towards him.
However, he believed that it was only because he had appeared and saved her when she was at her most helpless.
Skyline Hotel.
Ma Si walked out of the building, slightly worried by the thought of one name. It was Si Jiafeng.
Although Luo Tianhao was very detestable, there was one thing that he was not wrong about, and that was the strength of the Si Jiafeng family.
Surviving against the Si Jiafeng family was currently the biggest worry for Ma Si.
...
As Ma Si walked on the road, he did not take a car. Walking helped him think.
His parents were just ordinary people, and Si Jiafeng's family was powerful. Therefore, he wanted to protect his parents so that they would not be caught up in the onslaught of Si Jiafeng's family.
This was his only thought.
Suddenly.
As Ma Si walked, a cold light suddenly shone on his back, and goosebumps crept up his skin.
It seemed that something was particularly threatening to him, enough to threaten his life.
At that moment.
Ma Si was sweating profusely, and the cold sweat on his back had drenched his clothes.
However, he could not move, nor did he dare to move. There seemed to be something in the dark that was enough to make him think that he would die at any moment.
In a single second, many things happened at once.
Ma Si took a step forward. There was nothing strange on his face, but he had been extremely vigilant. The moment danger showed up, he would bolt.
The sense of danger came and went quickly. In an instant, it disappeared.
Ma Si still did not dare to be careless. On the surface, he pretended to be thinking about a problem, but in his heart, he was observing his surroundings discreetly.
His thoughts flew everywhere.
The sense of danger just now seemed to be brought to him by the advanced marksmanship technique. In an instant, he felt as if he was in the crosshairs of something deadly, and his skin started stinging.
A thought vaguely appeared in Ma Si's heart. This sensation... it was a sniper's scope, was it not?
As soon as this thought appeared, it blew up.
Ma Si's eyes drifted for a moment, and he scanned the street. Then, he quickly lowered his head and entered the crowd.
The general appearance of the nearby area had already appeared in his mind.
On the upper left was a bridge. There were many people standing on the edge of the bridge, looking down. However, it was not crowded to the point where bodies would be hugging against each other, which meant that the hidden gunman was not on the bridge.
On the right was a building. It was resplendent and the dark glass covered the entire building. A qualified gunman would not lie in ambush in such a place.
On the left was a small shop on the second floor.
Ma Si's heart told him that there was a 20% chance that the gunman was hiding here.
On the right, there was nothing but a huge street lamp.
This hidden gunman might be one of Si Jiafeng's. He could not think of anyone else who would dare to point a gun at him on the street.
His heart skipped a beat, and he prepared to escape this disaster first.
"Did you see that? Isn't the street much livelier today?"
"Hm? I thought I noticed it too. I thought the school was closed today."
"Actually, I heard that a big shot is coming today. It's said that this big shot is coming from the capital. I heard my father mentioning it."
"The capital? What are they here for?"
"I don't know. This kind of person is not someone we can get close to."
Ma Si's heart trembled.
Big shot...
Could it be...? ... The hidden gunman wasn't coming for him, but for that big shot?
He suddenly remembered that the gunman had clearly aimed the muzzle at him, but in less than a second, the sensation had vanished.
Could it be... he truly was not the target?
His brain was churning wildly, and his mind was gradually condensing these thoughts into a line.
A big shot was about to pass this way, and there happened to be a gunman who wanted to kill someone. He was just a passerby.
Ma Si wanted to leave quickly, not wanting to get involved.
However, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
Big Shot...
Did he not just happen to offend that Si Jiafeng Now? As long as he saved that so-called big shot, could he put him in his debt and help him against Si Jiafeng?
Even if he was not offered full protection, Si Jiafeng would have to act more cautiously.
