Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2757: Chapter 1959: Extending a Helping Hand

After those malevolent people entered the cabin, they started searching table by table. Someone was merely taking a nap on the table and was rudely dragged up.

The disturbed people were naturally very angry, but as soon as their anger surfaced, they saw that the other party was numerous and strong, each looking fierce and menacing, clearly not well-intentioned, so they immediately surrendered, not daring to express their anger even when pushed and shoved.

Bai Xiaosheng withdrew his gaze and noticed the young man next to him wearing a duckbill hat becoming a bit agitated, seemingly wanting to get up and leave but afraid of being noticed if he stood up.

The ones they are looking for should be him, Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

Seeing those people getting closer, the young man in the duckbill hat suddenly leaned in and whispered to Bai Xiaosheng, ”Friend, could I ask you to leave first? Those people are looking for me. They might take action later, I don’t want you to get hurt. You’re Asian, once they see you they won’t trouble you, it will also make it easier for me to escape.”

At the moment, the one in the duckbill hat was sitting by the wall while Bai Xiaosheng was in the outer seat, just blocking the way.

Bai Xiaosheng studied the young face under the duckbill hat, although it looked tense and anxious, it didn’t look like the face of a bad person.

”What did you do?” Bai Xiaosheng asked suddenly.

The person in the duckbill hat looked at this yellow-skinned, black-eyed man who didn’t seem much older than him, in astonishment.

Why is he so calm?

This question was something the person in the duckbill hat didn’t need to answer; it wasn’t the time to chat about his story with a stranger, yet inexplicably, he couldn’t help but respond, ”Those people are loan sharks. Originally, I was looking for a friend to borrow some money, but I didn’t expect that friend would introduce me to illegal lenders. Now, they’re here to collect the debt.”

Bai Xiaosheng looked at the helpless, bitter expression on his face and nodded slightly, ”Seems like you chose the wrong person to trust.”

The person in the duckbill hat could only manage a bitter smile.

The two of them whispered to each other, and their murmuring caught the attention of Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying sitting across from them.

However, the two just exchanged a glance and didn’t interrupt, instead listening in on what they were muttering about.

”Now isn’t the time to be discussing those things. If those people catch me, I’ll lose a few fingers today,” the duckbill hat sighed. ”I’ll pay the money back, but I don’t want to lose any part of myself. You should leave now to avoid getting involved, and take your friends with you.”

The duckbill hat said while glancing at Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.

He thought that after saying this, the person beside him would leave with his friends, but he didn’t expect the other person to remain as still as a mountain.

”If I let you pass, you’d get up and try to escape to the back, wouldn’t you? But look back there,” Bai Xiaosheng said.

The duckbill hat secretly peeked back and his expression changed immediately.

There were two people standing by the back door as well.

The group’s grandiose search from the front was just a tactic to scare the snake out of its hole, forcing him to surrender himself.

The duckbill hat turned pale and said with a wry smile, ”Looks like I’m doomed today, so let’s not get others involved.”

While speaking, he was about to stand up to announce that he was here.

Just as his butt left the seat, someone tugged at his shirt, pulling him back down.

The duckbill hat looked at Bai Xiaosheng in astonishment.

It was him who had grabbed hold of his shirt corner.

”You’re not bad,” Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said, ”For someone who can still think of others in a time of crisis, it would be a waste if you became crippled over a little money. What is it that you do and how much do you owe?”

The person in the duckbill hat did not expect the other would start a conversation with him.

The person in the hat sized up Bai Xiaosheng again, realizing that this peer had a unique charisma and an air of something extraordinary.

Why hadn’t I noticed this aura about him earlier?

The person in the duckbill hat wondered.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at him calmly, waiting for a response.

The duckbill hat had no choice but to say, ”I do spices business here. Not long ago, a tsunami caused me to lose all my goods, and I borrowed money to replenish stock with some big traders using a cargo ship. On the way, we encountered a typhoon, the ship capsized, and the goods were lost.”

This is truly a sad story.

However, hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng recalled this morning’s prediction by that baldheaded Leifer.

Leifer had also mentioned that the local spice business had suffered a huge blow, exactly as the duckbill hat had described.

”I borrowed a million US dollars from those people,” the duckbill hat murmured.

A million US dollars.

In Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes, that sum wasn’t much at all, considering he owned over a dozen companies worth billions.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and decided to help this young man who had caught his interest.

While they were talking, suddenly a loud shout came, ”He’s there!”

The duckbill hat was startled and couldn’t help looking up.

The group had spotted him and was heading over aggressively.

The duckbill hat’s face turned pale in an instant.

Although he had mentally prepared, now facing the situation, he was still afraid, as was only natural.

As the menacing group approached, passengers sitting around grew uneasy as well, some quickly getting up to leave and avoid the conflict, others trying to sit quietly only to be rudely shoved aside as the area was cleared.

Eventually, Bai Xiaosheng’s table was surrounded.

”Oh, sitting so steadily, Tieluoga.”

A bald man sneered as he came over, reaching out to pull the duckbill hat off the young man’s head.

The young man’s thick black hair was exposed, with a faint bitter smile on his face.
