Chapter 534 - 534: Public Display Of Affection
Yuanyun City was once very barren and suffered from poverty but later on, it was selected as a filming location for a certain drama or movie, and since then, it became extremely famous on the Internet, especially since it was located on the borders.
Most of the people living here were ethnic minorities, and the entire city exuded a rich cultural vibe.
It was Yan Jinyi's first time being here.
Ten members of Team No. 1 were there, including Hao Jianqiang and their leader, Qin He.
Yan Jinyi's headphones were hanging on her neck and she tagged along behind Huo Xishen slowly. She didn't look like she was there to protect the diamonds but rather, for a vacation.
"Second Young Master, why is Second Young Mistress Huo here?"
Yan Jinyi may be good at martial arts but to Qin He, she was still just a girl.
This time, their confrontation with the enemies would involve firearms, which was really no laughing matter.
"Qin He, do you have something against me?" Yan Jinyi asked before Huo Xishen said anything.
Qin He bowed respectfully and answered with a straight face, "No."
Yan Jinyi humphed coldly perfunctorily.
"Tonight you will head over together with the Second Young Mistress Huo." Huo Xishen instructed. He then turned to look at Yan Jinyi again and said with an affectionate tone of voice, "Just let her do as she pleases."
Qin He and the rest of Team No. 1 looked at Huo Xishen unanimously with disbelief.
'Second Young Master, have you been bewitched by her charm? We're now facing lawless crooks who are absolutely merciless and care about nothing except money. This is not child's play in the base camp! If they're carrying any firearms, Second Young Mistress Huo will die even if she can fight very well!'
Qin He hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I wouldn't dare to."
Yan Jinyi discovered that Huo Xishen seemed to be implying that he wouldn't be coming along.
"Where are you going?"
Huo Xishen reached out and rubbed the top of her head before answering calmly, "To earn money and provide for you."
"…"
Huo Xishen's subordinates witnessed the lovey-dovey interaction!
Pretending to be shy, Yan Jinyi pressed her thumb and index finger together before waving it a little. "Hey~ you're so annoying~"
"I have other things to deal with. Have fun and I'll come pick you up tomorrow night." Huo Xishen ignored her pretense and turned around to leave without looking back after saying those words.
'Is he here to pick me up after such a dangerous and laborious task? But...'
Yan Jinyi squinted. 'It's been a long time since I did something so exciting, if I could...'
She first looked at Qin He who was just like a blockhead, and clucked her tongue against the roof of her mouth in disdain before turning to look at Hao Jianqiang, at whom she curled her fingers.
Hao Jianqiang was extremely terrified of Yan Jinyi. Seeing this, he trembled and walked towards her. "Second...Second Young Mistress Huo, do you have any orders for me?"
"It means that our goods may be robbed if someone is coveting them, right?"
Hao Jianqiang nodded profusely. "Yes."
"Who are we going to face this time? Do they have goods too?"
"They're a force from the US who are quite close to the Fu family. They're business partners who seem to be on friendly terms with the Huo family on the surface but often get up to sordid acts in private."
Yan Jinyi rubbed her ears and barked, "Get straight to the main point!"
She wasn't interested in these family feuds. All she cared about were the goods.
"There's a large plot of land away from here that does not belong to any state or country, but it's a place that we definitely have to pass by. This time, we're sharing the unearthed raw materials and mining land with them but we were lucky enough to have gotten a larger share from the ground belonging to us."
Yan Jinyi nodded. She understood the situation.
The land that was tantamount to the origin of diamonds was divided into two between both families but the Huo Family was lucky to have gotten the better half of the land.
