Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1989: Chapter 1546: Don’t Think You Can Fool Me Again!

Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying were led into the hall of Ruby Manor by a steward. Upon entering, the first thing they noticed was Daisy, who was nervously watching them, and then their eyes moved towards the man with a hooked nose, sitting arrogantly and smoking a cigar.

That must be Mr. Ruby.

Daisy continuously hinted at Bai Xiaosheng with her eyes, hoping he would understand.

Daisy believed that now that the two Huaxia people had arrived, everything she said earlier would be exposed!

Now, to leave Ruby Manor safely, it depended on whether they could continue to make things up and keep the lie going. If they were exposed, they would be in great trouble today!

However, by comparison, Daisy had no worries about her life and wouldn’t suffer any major harm.

After all, she had a master with a not insignificant status and identity behind her!

No matter how powerful Mr. Ruby was, he wouldn’t dare do anything to her, out of respect for her master!

But it was different for these two Huaxia people. Although they seemed unusual and appeared to have a background, they were strangers in a strange land, with no foundation. If they offended Mr. Ruby, the local power, they could forget about leaving unscathed! Whether they could even leave New Orleans would depend on Mr. Ruby’s mood!

Daisy didn’t know why Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying were here, nor did she have time to ponder it. She was preoccupied with thinking about how to hint to them and ”align their stories.”

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaosheng was as obtuse as a ”rotten wood” or a ”stubborn stone,” oblivious to her hints, and even gave her a ”dumb” smile.

This made Daisy anxious, wishing she could pull Bai Xiaosheng aside and explain the situation to him.

Daisy thought Bai Xiaosheng didn’t understand, not knowing that when Bai Xiaosheng met her gaze and glanced at Ruby’s scrutinizing expression, he could infer a lot. If he truly wanted to cooperate with Daisy to patch up the lie, it was just a piece of cake.

However, Bai Xiaosheng thought there was no need!

Bai Xiaosheng didn’t believe that Mr. Ruby could be easily fooled by a few words, nor did he think that forcefully rescuing someone would be too difficult.

As the saying goes, ”strong dragons do not suppress local tyrants,” but in Huaxia, there’s also a saying, ”the fierce dragon crosses the river!”

How can a local tyrant stop a dragon crossing the river!

On the other side, since Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying entered, Ruby had been watching them.

His initial focus was entirely on Lei Ying.

”This big guy has such a heavy aura of killing intent!” Ruby’s eyes slightly narrowed upon his first glance at Lei Ying.

Having long mingled in the underworld, Ruby was particularly sensitive to truly formidable individuals. Watching Lei Ying walk in with a blank expression, his eyes surveying everything with a commanding presence, overshadowing his subordinates who had fought with real blades and guns, as if a lion had entered the arena, ready to devour anyone.

Such a character, even Ruby himself felt a deep sense of dread.

When Ruby met Lei Ying’s gaze, calm as water and deep as an abyss, as if it could swallow a person whole, he couldn’t help but feel a slight chill down his spine.

”This person must have killed before, and not just one! He must be someone who climbed out from a pile of corpses, a veteran who had been to the battlefield!” Ruby’s wariness and amazement grew as he observed Lei Ying.

In fact, Ruby had seen quite a number of retired special forces soldiers and had even hired several retired elite special forces.

But they seemed to be no match for this big guy!

”I’ve only seen such an aura in one person Mr. Meifu brought; that man... was simply a God of Killing!” Just thinking about it sent a chill up Ruby’s spine. That unforgettable ferocious face in his mind made even a bloodthirsty killer like him deeply fearful.

Compared to that man, this big guy in front of him, while somewhat similar in aura, was ultimately more ”gentle.”

Ruby didn’t know.

Lei Ying had been through workplace battles with Bai Xiaosheng for so many years, which had transformed his entire demeanor, partly due to Lei Ying’s deliberate suppression.

But this did not mean Lei Ying had become weaker.

Some top snipers sometimes do things like threading a needle or embroidery to calm their minds and steady their hands.

After being refined by another kind of ”killing” in the workplace, Lei Ying’s thinking ability and reaction speed improved significantly. Together with his never-slacking physical training over the years, Lei Ying’s overall strength was now even greater than when he was on the battlefield!

And this, Ruby didn’t know.

After observing Lei Ying, Ruby turned his gaze to Bai Xiaosheng, who was also looking at him.

In their mutual gaze, Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

Ruby, however, frowned slightly, his eyes full of suspicion.

To be honest, Ruby was more concerned about that big guy among these two Huaxia people, but the big guy was following behind the young man. Initially, Ruby thought they were merely in an employer-employee relationship. That young man shouldn’t be anything special.

Only after this eye contact did Ruby change his initial thoughts.

This young man seemed ordinary at first glance, but the longer he looked, the more he felt an incredible sense of——

Unfathomability!

Ruby never thought that at his current position, there would be anyone he couldn’t see through. If there were, it should be some ancient hermit from a big family. Those people, surviving through numerous trials of life and death, were extremely adept at hiding themselves.

But how could someone so young!

How could I not see through him!? Ruby couldn’t help but feel amazed at Bai Xiaosheng.
