Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1787: Chapter 1420: We’re Friends! (Part 2)

The story went roughly like this.

Bai Xiaosheng and the others nodded slightly as they listened.

There are no shortage of bad people in this world, but there are even more warm-hearted good people. Bad people are cunning, so good people must be cautious when doing good deeds, so as not to let their kindness be taken advantage of and end up harmed.

After Dong Tianxiu finished explaining, she mumbled, ”Why did those people target us out of everyone?”

Bai Xiaosheng smiled. This matter is actually easy to understand.

”Probably because you two looked unfamiliar and are outsiders. And look at your outfit; although ordinary people might not think much of it and the wealthy might see it as low-key, those who know quality recognize that your clothes, shoes, and watch are all quite expensive. Plus, didn’t you refer to Chen Feiyu as your bodyguard along the way?” Bai Xiaosheng explained with a smile.

Dong Tianxiu and the others must have been seen as easy targets.

Imagine, a man dressed in understated luxury with a bodyguard, and a woman with a perfect figure and face—how could real bad guys pass up such good targets?

”That group is quite scheming, it should have been that woman who suggested the plan. And she’s a great actress! To be cautious, they wanted to deal with you separately,” Lei Ying analyzed, pointing to Dong Tianxiu and Chen Feiyu, ”In their eyes, you two are big targets. They could ransom Dong Tianxiu, at worst lock him up, seize his phone, and deceive his family. As for Chen Feiyu... I reckon that group might resort to kidnapping women, selling them into the mountains as wives, and perhaps even insulting them in the process...”

Lei Ying’s words changed the complexion of Dong Tianxiu and Chen Feiyu.

It’s hard to imagine what would have happened to them if Bai Xiaosheng and the others hadn’t shown up.

Dong Tianxiu would have been fine, temporarily without life-threatening danger—just financial loss. But Chen Feiyu might have...

Thinking of those wolf-like men and their filthy words, Chen Feiyu’s face paled even more as she bit her lip.

She suddenly wanted to go back and wring those bastards’ necks.

Dong Tianxiu uncharacteristically remained silent.

”This time, I truly owe you a debt of gratitude for saving our lives!” Then, Dong Tianxiu looked up solemnly at Bai Xiaosheng and said, ”If it weren’t for you, I’d be feeling guilty about Feiyu for the rest of my life!”

Chen Feiyu also gazed at Bai Xiaosheng and the others, eyes filled with gratitude.

”Haven’t we already said thank you? There’s no need to say it again. It’s all in the past; just be more careful in the future,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

Neither he nor Lei Ying are the type to seek rewards for their kindness.

”Some things can be glossed over, but not this!”

At this moment, Dong Tianxiu shed all previous nonchalance.

”Indeed!” Chen Feiyu agreed firmly.

They, on the other hand, were people who repaid kindness and valued loyalty.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Lei Ying and Lin Weiwei, then smiled and said to them both, ”If you consider us friends, then don’t bring it up again. Isn’t it the duty of friends to help each other?”

With that, Dong Tianxiu and Chen Feiyu stopped insisting, burying their gratitude deep within.

”Lei Ying’s martial skills are so formidable, I’m ashamed of my own. But I’ve noticed a lethal aura in your moves; did you serve in the military?” Chen Feiyu couldn’t help but ask Lei Ying.

Lei Ying smiled slightly.

”He’s not simple; he’s the God of Killing who fought battles in the warzone,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, briefly recounting some of Lei Ying’s background.

Chen Feiyu gasped.

Who could have imagined Lei Ying had such a remarkable past?

Dong Tianxiu’s eyes were aglow with excitement.

All men love wielding weapons and guns; it’s a man’s romance.

”However, in my eyes, Lei Ying also possesses a business-like demeanor,” Chen Feiyu couldn’t help but observe Lei Ying closely with a smile.

This was what intrigued her the most!

With such skills, he could likely exist as a bodyguard or similar role, so how could he develop such a demeanor?

”I’ve changed professions and now work in the business field,” Lei Ying said with a slight smile.

Now, he could be considered Bai Xiaosheng’s leading aide.

Underneath his sturdy exterior, he possessed a sharp mind, quick to learn.

”That’s quite incongruent, leaving the field for the business world like that; it’s just not right!” Dong Tianxiu expressed regret.

Hearing Lei Ying’s experiences stirred his blood fervently; he sincerely believed Lei Ying should be geared up, face painted with camouflage, holding a sniper rifle and dominating the battlefield—that would be truly impressive.

Chen Feiyu rolled her eyes at her employer, then smiled at Lei Ying and said, ”I think it’s great. Besides, it’s clear Lei Ying has successfully transitioned! Plus, it’s evident that your skills haven’t diminished one bit!”

That’s what amazed her the most.

Lei Ying smiled and said nothing more.

As they spoke, they entered the hotel.

It was about dinnertime, so everyone naturally headed for the restaurant.

The first floor of the hotel offered a simple buffet, which could be paid for with a room card.

This was one way the airline provided food and accommodation.

Though it was nearly mealtime, there weren’t many people dining inside, making it easy for everyone to find seats.

”So what about you, Bai Xiaosheng!” As they walked, Chen Feiyu looked at Bai Xiaosheng with bright eyes and resumed the topic, ”Why are you so formidable too?”

Lei Ying’s physical qualities and past experiences determined his strength; where did Bai Xiaosheng’s skills come from?
