Li Xiao rejected her coldly, "You can't eat it. You'll get diarrhea if you eat it."
"Oh, but I really want to eat it." The sparrow was on the verge of tears. She had no resistance to good food. If it was weaker than her, she wouldn't have thought about it. However, the bat in front of her was so fragrant that it smelled very tempting. She didn't know if it was because of its high level, but it smelled much better than the bat she had met before.
Xu Manqin felt as if her worldview had been shattered. Judging from the bat-like wings that protruded from the man's back, it was clear that he was not a normal human. However, he was easily beaten down by her daughter. He looked pitiful and helpless as he lay on the ground. Listening to Li Que's conversation, this round and likable little girl wanted to eat him. It was obvious that she wasn't a normal person either.
As a normal human, she felt a lot of pressure.
A sigh sounded in their ears, and an elegant middle-aged gentleman appeared in front of them. He had some white hair on his temples and faint fine wrinkles on his face, giving him a charm that was accumulated over the years, like vintage wine. He was the owner of this manor, Duke Johnson.
His deep gaze fell on Li Xiao. His tone was respectful. "Are you a Perfected Being from Remote Cloud Mountain?"
Her standard Chinese accent gave people a good impression of her.
Li Xiao raised her eyebrows. "You've had dealings with my sect before?"
Duke Johnson smiled and said concisely, "I have a deep impression of your Chinese Dao techniques."
At that time, he met Chang Fu and another Chinese man. That man claimed to be from Remote Cloud Mountain. He didn't look like much, but he was quite capable. He threw out a few pieces of paper and made his descendant cry. Today, this little girl had a similar aura to him, but she was more powerful. At least, that Daoist couldn't be like her, who could play with lightning as if it were a toy.
He had asked that Perfected Being how many people like him were there in China.
The answer, "Everywhere", was still fresh in his mind. That Perfected Being didn't lie to him. He took him to a so-called spiritual assembly. Many people at the assembly had the ability to kill Blood Breed nobles.
Because of this, after he returned to China, he tried his best to promote peaceful coexistence between the Blood Breed and humans. He also prohibited his descendants from entering China. Many of his descendants thought that he was weak. They didn't know that he was trying to protect them. It wasn't easy for the Blood Breed to become stronger. The number of Blood Breeds killed over the years was much higher than the number of newborns. If this continued, the future of the Blood Breed would be bleak. However, many Blood Breeds were still immersed in their past glory.
He looked at Smith, who was still lying on the ground, unable to move. Smith was his opponent for nearly a thousand years, but he was also his old companion.
"Could you please be magnanimous and forgive him for his offense this time?"
Charlie gazed at the grand duke in astonishment. He hadn't expected the duke, who could summon the wind and rain, to be so respectful. But when his gaze landed on Grand Duke Smith, he felt that it was only natural. The Blood Race had always respected the strong.
Li Xiao lowered her eyes. After a moment, she asked, "How much is he worth?"
Charlie said, "Close to 100 billion." Grand Duke Smith had many properties under his name. The Smith Financial Group he represented was a powerful existence in the M Country. It influenced every presidential election. He might not be the strongest in the Blood Breed, but he was the wealthiest.
. Li Xiao did some calculations. This 100 billion should be calculated in M Country's currency. This also meant that in China's currency, this person was worth hundreds of billions.
He was indeed rich.
. Li Xiao said, "Then use 1% of your assets to redeem him."
Smith endured the pain and glared at Li Xiao. This hateful human dared to treat him like this.
Li Xiao smiled widely. Her eyes were shining with a scorching light. A few more hits and the bat would be reduced to ashes. She had brought more than 30 Five Thunder Talismans with her. She could use one and throw it away.
Smith was terrified. He took out his phone and was about to call his subordinates to prove that he had some assets. But when he took out his phone, it couldn't be used because of the lightning. It even made a strange sound. Smith was so angry that he could only say to his sworn enemy, "Give me your phone."
Duke Johnson held back his laughter and handed the phone to him. Although Smith was rich, losing 1% of his assets would be very painful. With his pride, he couldn't go back on his words. After learning this lesson, he wouldn't be as arrogant as before. He would be able to look at human beings more objectively.
Before the deed was sent over, Smith's face darkened as he changed out of his burnt suit and tidied up his appearance. After an hour, he appeared in front of Li Xiao. He looked like a gentleman again. But it could be seen that he was somewhat afraid of Li Xiao. He was two meters away from Li Xiao.
What Smith brought was not only the deed to the manor, but also some shares of the company. According to his net worth, Li Xiao could get seven billion yuan, which was a lot of money. After all, all the assets under her name added up to more than ten billion yuan.
Li Xiao wasn't interested in the manor. She usually went abroad occasionally and didn't live here. Besides, such a large manor would cost a lot of money to maintain every year. It would be better to use the money to make talismans. So she was more willing to choose the company shares. As she looked, she sighed that Smith was really rich. He had a lot of shares in several familiar companies. He was also a major shareholder of the world's largest software company. But he wasn't willing to give up the shares of the software company.
Li Xiao didn't care. Her eyes were fixed on a name — Chiti. Wait, wasn't this company the high-end brand that hired Allen as the chief designer? Smith himself owned 12% of the brand's shares. This was quite a lot. He could be said to be the second largest shareholder.
Li Xiao heard that Allen's family was also one of the major shareholders of Chiti. He could be the chief designer so smoothly. On one hand, it was because of his own strength, and on the other hand, it was because of the family behind him.
Li Xiao asked Smith, "How many shares does the De Mare family own in Chiti?" The family behind Allen was the De Mare family.
Xu Manqin reacted and looked at Li Xiao in surprise.
Smith said, "It's about 7%, ranked fourth."
Li Xiao was very satisfied. "Very good, I want the shares of this company."
Smith heard her words as if she had a grudge with the De Mare family, but this had nothing to do with him. He didn't care about Chidi, so he was relieved that Li Xiao had chosen this company. At least it wasn't one of the companies that he liked the most. He said coldly, "I'll transfer the shares to you as soon as possible. It's just that for such a major shareholder change, the company will usually hold an internal banquet to welcome the new shareholders. Don't forget to attend. "
After saying this, he left in a hurry. He didn't want to stay in front of this Chinese woman who had humiliated him.
Li Xiao looked at his back and sighed softly. "What a pity."
Duke Johnson asked, "What's a pity?"
Li Xiao sighed. "Grand Duke Smith was too sensible. I was too embarrassed to continue. I was hoping that he would bring a few more people to take revenge on me. That way, I could keep all of them and blackmail them one by one! "
She might even be able to make a fortune and become a world-class tycoon. Smith had killed her dream of becoming rich overnight.
Li Xiao's regret came from the bottom of her heart.
Smith's figure in the distance paused for a moment, then suddenly disappeared from sight.
Duke Johnson said, "Smith may be arrogant, but he's not stupid." A stupid vampire wouldn't have lived to this day and age. If Li Xiao's strength was equal to his, he certainly wouldn't give up so easily. But it turned out that even ten Smiths were no match for her. After discovering that Li Xiao's ability was far above his, Smith naturally wouldn't drag his family down in a fit of pique. Anyway, he would only lose face in this manor. The people who saw it wouldn't say anything.
Li Xiao thought about it and agreed. Like in novels, there were only a few brainless cannon fodder who clamored to come back after being defeated.
She suddenly realized a problem. According to Smith, he was originally the second largest shareholder of the company. But now the shares had changed and Li Xiao had become his. Then she would meet Allen's family face to face when the time came. Her shares were more than his family's. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look forward to it. A bright smile appeared on her face.
****
Five days later.
Allen hurried back and said to Chan Ka-yin and Li Qianfei, who were living in the villa, "There's an important banquet in two days. A major shareholder of Chiti has transferred his shares, so we're going to hold an internal banquet to welcome the new member. I'll take you to the banquet."
"I heard that the new member is Chinese. Her surname seems to be Li. If Chien Fei can get along well with her and our family, she'll definitely become the company's spokesperson." Li and Li were the same abroad, so Allen didn't think of Li Xiao. Or rather, he didn't think that Li Xiao could make the original shareholder give up his shares.
Li Qianfei's face showed a trace of embarrassment. She had a bad reputation in China. That was why she went abroad with her mother and Allen. She wanted to start over.
What if the new shareholder also knew about her and didn't give her face?
Allen looked at Li Qianfei with bright eyes, his face full of confidence. "Chien Fei is so cute. There's no reason for the other party not to like her."
Li Qianfei could only smile. She couldn't say that she didn't have any confidence at all.
Chan Ka-yin was also thinking about dressing up for the banquet so that she could get to know more people. She couldn't go back to China, but she could film abroad and become an international star. Once she became famous, even the Chinese government couldn't do anything to her. If she could get to know more famous directors and win international awards, she would be able to slap the faces of those who mocked her. In her mind, the scene of herself standing at the top of the world with a medal in her hand and enjoying the cheers of everyone appeared. The smile on her face deepened.
Although Allen still liked her, it was because the best was what she couldn't get. She couldn't pin all her hopes on him. She had to rely on herself! In the past, she could become a movie queen from nothing. There was no reason why she couldn't do it now.
Although she had other thoughts, she still had a gentle smile on her face as she listened to Allen's instructions on the details of attending such an internal banquet.
Suddenly, Allen received a call. After hanging up, the smile on his face disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Chan Ka-yin asked with concern.
Allen frowned slightly. "Xu Manqin is still alive. She even came here."
The hotel she was staying at happened to be his friend's. After his friend confirmed it, he informed him about it. Previously, Allen had told his friends to deal with Xu Manqin for Chan Ka-yin's sake. His friends basically knew that he didn't get along with Xu Manqin.
Chan Ka-yin's heart skipped a beat. Her face turned pale. "How is that possible? Didn't she die in the fire? "Her death had caused a rift between Lê Nam Giệu and her.
Allen quickly comforted her. "Don't worry. This is M Country. With me here, she can't hurt you."
He felt that Xu Manqin was digging her own grave. Since she insisted on coming to his territory, then she shouldn't blame him for being rude. With her hatred for Jiayin, she would definitely frame Jiayin. In order to protect his goddess, he had to get rid of this unstable factor first.
