Lu Qingyi followed behind Ling Feng, her gaze fixed on his retreating figure!
"What?"
Ling Feng suddenly turned his head.
Lu Qingyi was startled and instinctively covered her chest with one hand.
Then she shot Ling Feng a glare.
"What do you mean, 'what'?"
"I mean, are you still not over it? The goods have arrived!"
Ling Feng casually said, lifting the large box he was holding.
At the same time, he removed his mask!
Lu Qingyi was taken aback and quickly said to Ling Feng, "What are you doing? Who told you to take off your mask?"
Ling Feng didn't seem to care and reached out to remove Lu Qingyi's mask as well!
He then turned and pointed to the dumpling restaurant they were in.
"Want to grab some late-night supper?"
"Late-night supper? A dumpling restaurant?!"
Lu Qingyi finally snapped back to reality, looking at their surroundings in disbelief. How did they end up at this dumpling restaurant?
"Yes, the passage we were in connected to the alley behind the dumpling restaurant's kitchen. After coming out from there, we entered directly here. The people here probably don't know!"
Ling Feng said casually.
Lu Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief. She had been filled with anxiety and complex emotions the entire way.
She hadn't had the time to observe their surroundings. After all, Ling Feng wouldn't lead her astray.
"What dumplings? Let's go! We can't be far from there. If they find us..."
Lu Qingyi spoke, reaching out to grab Ling Feng's hand, intending to drag him away.
However, Ling Feng had no intention of leaving.
Lu Qingyi's strength wasn't great. Not only did she fail to budge Ling Feng, but she was also pulled along, stumbling and nearly falling into his arms.
Ling Feng shook his head at Lu Qingyi and said, "Eat dumplings."
"Eat what dumplings..."
Lu Qingyi was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.
But Ling Feng had already sat down, and the waiter was approaching. Others nearby had already noticed them.
At this moment, Lu Qingyi felt as if everyone's gazes were hostile!
After all, they were carrying treasures worth hundreds of billions!
Arguing with Ling Feng now would only draw more attention. Helplessly, she could only sit down with him.
Fortunately, Ling Feng chose a seat by the wall, which could offer them some cover.
This way, people passing by the entrance wouldn't be able to see them directly.
However, Lu Qingyi forgot one thing.
Those people might not come from outside. They could also have come through the same passage they had followed.
But that passage wasn't limited to a single exit. It depended on the other party's luck, whether they went in the opposite direction or luckily followed them to the exit of this passage.
"You, you're clearly waiting for them to come back for revenge!"
Lu Qingyi gritted her teeth. "You were gambling with your life just now, it was too reckless. Did you really think you were guaranteed to win?!"
Ling Feng took the menu from the waiter and casually said, "Two servings of beef and scallion dumplings."
"I don't eat scallions!" Lu Qingyi said indignantly. How could this Ling Feng still have the leisure to eat dumplings at a time like this?
Ling Feng then tossed the menu in his hand towards Lu Qingyi.
"The two servings are for myself, I didn't order for you. Order whatever you like, my treat!"
This remark choked Lu Qingyi, almost making her roll her eyes!
She then huffily took the menu and, in a fit of retaliation, said, "Two servings of abalone dumplings!"
After handing it to the waiter, she glared at Ling Feng retaliatorily, "I didn't order yours either, two servings, I'll eat them myself!"
"Immature."
Ling Feng shook his head and uttered two words.
Lu Qingyi became even more annoyed, but she knew she had never won an argument with Ling Feng!
This scoundrel either maintained a cold, silent demeanor or was insufferably sharp-tongued!
Helplessly, Lu Qingyi suppressed her anger and asked Ling Feng in a deep voice, "You haven't answered my question from before!"
Ling Feng took a sip of tea. He preferred the taste of this very ordinary tea.
It was very down-to-earth!
After taking a sip, he casually said to Lu Qingyi, "No one is guaranteed to win, but I knew I wouldn't lose!"
"You... not losing isn't the same as winning? Didn't you ever consider what would happen if you lost? The ones who kill aren't that Shura-masked man, but the people from the auction house!"
Lu Qingyi's eyes were starting to turn red.
The situation just now was extremely perilous, and Lu Qingyi's heart had been in her throat. Yet, this Ling Feng seemed completely unconcerned.
"I mean, I wouldn't lose my life. Even if I lost the bet, the auction house wouldn't be able to take my life. They should be glad I didn't lose!"
Ling Feng said casually, still not taking the matter seriously at all.
Lu Qingyi's beautiful eyes widened.
"Are you saying you deliberately want to provoke the auction house into fighting you?"
"Yes, that would save money and allow us to directly investigate their strengths and weaknesses. It wouldn't matter if we eliminated them later."
Ling Feng shrugged matter-of-factly and finally added, "Unfortunately, I won, so the auction house will have to wait until later!"
Hiss!
Lu Qingyi immediately gasped.
"You lunatic, then why are you still here? Are you deliberately waiting for that man with the white mask to find you? You know that Shura-masked man is just a subordinate, and his possessions belong to the man with the white mask. That man with the white mask definitely won't let you go!"
Just as Lu Qingyi finished her anxious words, Ling Feng's gaze sharpened slightly as he stared behind her and said coldly, "They're here!"
"What?!"
Lu Qingyi almost cried out in surprise and turned her head with a chilling expression!
Indeed, she saw a man who had just removed his white mask. Behind him were three other people who had also removed their masks.
They walked out from the kitchen.
"Hey, hey, what's going on lately? People keep coming in through my kitchen. Don't you have a front door?"
The owner of the dumpling restaurant clearly found them an eyesore and reprimanded them unhappily.
The faces of the three men immediately turned extremely grim. They were already full of suppressed rage, and killing now would definitely not be done with any mercy.
Ling Feng naturally noticed the actions of the three men and took three chopsticks from the nearby chopstick holder!
The chopsticks spun between Ling Feng's fingers.
The man with the white mask opposite them had revealed his young and handsome face.
He naturally saw the chopsticks in Ling Feng's hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He raised his hand to stop the three men behind him and casually said to the owner, "Four servings of your most expensive dumplings!"
"Four servings? My most expensive are lobster and mushroom dumplings, eight hundred and eighty per serving!"
The owner squinted at them, clearly not believing these people were that wealthy!
"What nonsense are you talking? Here's ten thousand yuan, is that enough?"
Someone directly threw ten thousand yuan in cash.
The owner immediately beamed with joy!
"Haha, distinguished guests, please, please, please! Come in however you like from now on! You are always welcome here!"
