Chapter 1248: Yes Darling (5)

Zhu Hongjie looked at his card. There were only two months left.
He had a car accident a while ago. When he woke up, his lifespan had decreased to only two months.
“Mister.”
The butler walked in.
Zhu Hongjie grabbed his card and covered it with his sleeve. “How is it?”
The butler’s expression was bad. “I asked a few organizations in the East District. They gave me the same price.”
Zhu Hongjie jumped up. “What? Repeat that?”
The butler couldn’t believe it himself.
He wiped away some cold sweat as he repeated, “Ten thousand a day.”
Zhu Hongjie slammed the table. “Are the people in the East District crazy?”
The butler: “…”
He didn’t know if they were crazy. However, he knew that if that was really the case, a huge commotion would arise soon.
…
The West District learned about this matter soon. All the wealthy people got wind of this news.
When they realized that normal people still had the same price, they knew that they were targeted.
Why?
Did someone do something?
Maybe because lifespans could be transacted, the people in this world were more prone to accidents.
The wealthy people would normally make sure that their lifespan was at its maximum—the decreased lifespan was not calculated into their highest age.
For instance, someone who could live till 23 years old but his highest age was 40 years old, when he met an accident and his lifespan decreased by ten years, he could spend money and buy his ten years back.
That meant that if you had the money, you could live till your highest age. The lost lifespan could be bought back with money.
Before, one year only cost ten thousand so it was still affordable for them. Now, one day cost ten thousand…
What the hell is this?
Very soon, someone asked for a negotiation. The people at the East District rejected the offer blatantly.
If you don’t want to buy it, don’t! You can go and kill people and land yourself in jail!
The law of the West District protected everyone.
If someone killed anyone, they would go to jail. The law at the West District was thorough too. They’d be guilty by association.
If you asked someone else to snatch lifespan for you, you would still be jailed if the lifespan ended up in your hands.
Snatching lifespan required technical skills. If someone randomly snatched another person’s lifespan, they would have to take everything. That meant that the person would be killed.
Also, if you exceeded your highest age when you snatched other people’s lifespan, your original lifespan would be decreased by half and you would never be able to take other people’s lifespan again.
They had to transact with the organizations in the East District because these organizations had the technical skills to ensure that they were given the exact number of years they required.
This technique was held by the organizations that raised the price. The wealthy people couldn’t do anything about it.
Since the East District didn’t want to negotiate, the West District sent a negotiation team to the East District.
At the headquarters of Du Ji…
The negotiation team sat in the meeting room all dressed up properly in suits. At the front of the room, Ming Shu was drinking her yogurt.
“Miss Jiang Xue, can we talk now?”
Ming Shu raised her hand. “Of course. I didn’t gag you all, did I?”
The person in charge of the negotiation team felt awkward. “Miss Jiang Xue, we hope to discuss with you about the rise in the price of lifespans.”
“There is nothing to be discussed. I want to do it like this. If you all are not convinced, you all can hate me.”
Let’s go!
Give me my Hatred Points!
The negotiation team: “…”
What the hell is this?
“Miss Jiang Xue, why did you do this? If we can solve it peacefully, it will be good for everyone.”
“Let me think.” Ming Shu placed her hand on her chin and nodded. “I don’t like wealthy people. What do you all think about this reason? I think that this is a good reason!”
The negotiation team: “…”
If they still didn’t understand that Ming Shu was targeting them, they were idiots.
One of the members of the negotiation team threatened Ming Shu: “Miss Jiang Xue, are you trying to become an enemy of the West District?”
“You are so naughty. We are doing an illegal business here. So what if we offend you all? I can just change my job.”
“…”
What is the relationship between your first and last sentence?
Do you know that you are doing an illegal business?
Why are you still creating such a huge commotion then?
Offend…
The people realized that the East District was not governed by the government.
This meant that the government didn’t care about this place.
The negotiation team members felt a chill down their spines.
They started worrying about their safety.
They left Du Ji in low spirits.
…
Assistant He almost got frightened to death because of Ming Shu.
“Young Miss, are we really going to do this?”
“Isn’t it too late to regret?”
“Well, there is still room for…”
“Assistant He.” Ming Shu looked at him. “Remember that we are the ones who set the rules.”
Assistant He froze on the spot.
All this time, they had been servicing the people at the West District…
However, they had forgotten that they were the ones in control.
“Young Miss, I understand.”
Ming Shu stretched her back. “What are we eating for dinner?”
Assistant He: “…”
Ming Shu let Assistant He settle the matter and went off first.
She didn’t have a choice.
The people here closed their shops really early. Once it turned dark, no one could be seen on the streets anymore.
Ming Shu managed to get into the restaurant before it closed.
The East District was an unsafe place. While Ming Shu was eating, she saw three fights.
Huala—
A youth was kicked and slid toward Ming Shu’s table. The table shook but it didn’t topple.
The youth clutched his chest and tried to get up. However, he didn’t manage to.
Something appeared in front of his face. He grabbed his head instinctively.
He realized that that thing was an iron bar. The youth got a shock.
He looked up. A pair of fair hands were holding the iron bar. He could see the faint redness of her skin.
“Take it.”
The youth took the iron bar and rushed toward his opponents.
The youth suddenly gained strength from somewhere and attacked his opponents with the iron bar.
His opponents didn’t expect the youth to get hold of a weapon so they were caught off guard.
The youth appeared to have gained a buff and started knocking everyone down.
“You bastard, you just wait!”
When they left, someone shouted at the youth.
The crowd gathered around them saw the people fighting to leave so they dispersed too. They were used to it.
Only the owner of the restaurant walked toward the youth and started calculating his compensation.
The youth got up and looked depressed. “Erm… can I owe you first?”
“Owe me? Who knows where you will be tomorrow?” The East District was not a small village. It was a huge place. The owner didn’t want to let the youth run away like this.
“I really don’t have…” The youth sounded helpless.
