260: Chapter 259: Female Lawyer 260: Chapter 259: Female Lawyer “Money is indeed very important,” Liu Hun laughed heartily as he spoke to Zhong Xiao, “but some things can’t be bought with money, like — you!” After saying that, he pressed Zhong Xiao’s shoulder and said, “I’ll cure your dear mother, and you faithfully follow me from now on, I won’t let you down, how about that?” “As long as Master Liu can cure my mother, from now on, my life, Zhong Xiao’s life, is yours,” Zhong Xiao said excitedly to Liu Hun. If it were someone else speaking like this, he would’ve immediately gotten angry. But after encountering superpower users like Xue Yanqing, he knew that there are people in this world capable of doing things ordinary people cannot. Originally, Zhong Xiao followed Qiao Guangbi partly for the money to continue his own mother’s medical expenses. Another reason was hoping to find a superpower user who could fully awaken his mother. However, as time went by on this increasingly dark path, year after year, he gradually gave up hope. He did not expect to meet Liu Hun today, a meeting so exciting that he couldn’t express it in words. Once Liu Hun said it, he did it, immediately calling over the doctor from the intensive care unit, “Move patient number seven to the best convalescent ward, and make sure to maintain her vital signs.” The doctor sized up Liu Hun from head to toe, wondering if this guy was a patient who ran out from the neighboring psychiatric ward and asked Liu Hun, “Who are you, gesturing around like this? Do you know this is a tertiary hospital, do you know I am the chief physician!” Liu Hun didn’t get angry nor did he talk back; he just silently took out his phone, then dialed Xiao Yanzhu’s number, and handed the phone to the doctor, saying, “Here, take this call.” “Who do you think you are? Let me make it clear to you, this is a hospital, it’s no use whoever you call!” The doctor said dissatisfiedly to Liu Hun before accepting the phone and speaking into the receiver, “Hello! Who’s this? Who do you think— Oh! Director Xiao! It turned out to be you! Yes, yes, yes, I’m Xie Ke from the ICU, you see if you still remember my voice. You really are a good leader who cares about your subordinates! Okay, okay, I will follow the orders, everything as you say! Yes, yes, yes!” Xie Ke respectfully handed the phone back to Liu Hun with a smile and said, “Look at this, you know our Director Xiao, why didn’t you say it earlier. Done! It will be done right away! Rest assured, I guarantee everything will be taken care of!” If Zhong Xiao witnessed Liu Hun’s power back in the private room, now he truly saw Liu Hun’s connections. A few dozen minutes later, when he saw his mother, who had been in a coma for five years, awaken, he again comprehensively recognized Liu Hun’s abilities. When Zhong Xiao knelt down before Liu Hun with a thud, Liu Hun knew that this special forces soldier would be his most reliable subordinate from now on. Liu Hun left Zhong Xiao to accompany his mother, now that he knew Qiao Guangbi, this old dog, was the mastermind behind the scenes, the current goal became very clear. On one hand, he needed to dig deeper into Qiao Guangbi’s background, and on the other hand, win the wager with Qiao Guangbi and make him bleed profusely! The bigger Qiao Guangbi’s loss, the more panicked he would become, and the more panicked he got, the more desperately he’d try to recoup his losses, just like a gambler in a casino who eventually makes frequent mistakes. To win against Qiao Guangbi, firstly, Liu Hun had to ensure Wanbao Village wasn’t leveled, so he planned to participate in the County Committee’s public auction. As long as he could get the mining rights and then seal it for decades without activity, no one could do anything about it. So, the current task was to quickly acquire a qualified mining company and then enter the bidding. Coincidentally, Liu Hun arrived just in time for such a matter. Zhao Mingjie had recently handled a case of a bankrupt mining enterprise, which was then transferred to the court to begin judicial proceedings, and an auction was now being prepared. Not only did Zhao Mingjie inform Liu Hun of this, but she also introduced him to a lawyer from a law firm affiliated with the Police Department, who specialized in handling court auction cases. Carrying the address provided by Zhao Mingjie, Liu Hun found Ma’s Law Firm and met the woman lawyer Zhao Mingjie introduced him to — Bai Lingfei! Wearing a white lady’s suit, her slender legs encased in faintly colored stockings, her curled hair casually tied behind her head, with fine eyebrows over willow eyes paired with a small, plump-lipped mouth that always carried an intellectual smile, the first thing that popped into Liu Hun’s head upon seeing Bai Lingfei was five words — “Charming and intelligent legal beauty.” “Hello Mr. Liu!” Bai Lingfei greeted Liu Hun with a smile as they shook hands. Liu Hun also greeted her in return, grasping Bai Lingfei’s hand, which truly felt as soft as if it had no bones. “Mr. Liu, the rule at our law firm is to charge by the hour, but I will get straight to the point,” Bai Lingfei reminded him with a smile, and then skillfully flipped open a document, holding a pen carefully searching, not even minding a strand of hair that had fallen onto her chest, “Oh! Found it, this one! Yuhua City Intermediate People’s Court case number 2512 auction. Jinxin Mining Company Limited, the bid price is 500,000.” Bai Lingfei carefully read the materials for a moment, then said to Liu Hun, “Mr. Liu, from a professional lawyer’s standpoint, my advice to you is not to participate in the auction.” “Why?” Liu Hun asked somewhat puzzled. Bai Lingfei patiently explained, “Mr. Liu, Jinxin Mining has already entered bankruptcy proceedings, and what’s been tallied up so far is just the sign of an empty shell company. The rest of the assets are still in the process of being accounted for. That is to say, there’s something fishy going on here.” “I don’t really understand.” Liu Hun didn’t have the slightest understanding of the law. Bai Lingfei patiently clarified, “Let’s put it this way. It’s like you’re about to buy a box that looks very luxurious, but you have no idea what’s inside. The box also has a hefty price tag. But that’s not the main issue, the key point is... there’s already a buyer for this box, you’re just there to keep up appearances with the Crown Prince.” Once it came to under-the-table dealings and transactions of power and money, Liu Hun understood. That was his area of expertise, and though he knew that this auction might turn out fruitless, he wasn’t planning to give up on this opportunity. First, because if he were to register a mining company now, without several years’ worth of accumulated qualifications it would definitely not pass muster. Secondly, if he wanted to acquire a well-operated mining company, the cost would be far too great. “Ms. Bai, if I have a way to take over this company, do you have any other advice?” Liu Hun asked Bai Lingfei straightforwardly, although not certain, he really wanted to give it a try. “Oh?!” Bai Lingfei’s eyebrows raised and she made a flirtatious and flavorful expression, “If Mr. Liu can take over this company, I think you won’t lose out if you bid within seven million. The less that’s revealed publicly, the more is hidden, and the thicker the profit you can extract.” “With Ms. Bai’s word, I’m much more at ease.” Liu Hun smiled at Bai Lingfei. It seemed that his trip today hadn’t been in vain, he had at least gathered a lot of information. Suddenly, Bai Lingfei cocked her head to the side with a hint of mystery and said to Liu Hun, “Mr. Liu, I have some information regarding the upcoming auction, for which I’ll charge a small fee for the information. Are you interested?” “Money is no object!” said Liu Hun, who took out a stack of checks, rapidly wrote out one for one hundred thousand, and placed it in front of Bai Lingfei. Catching a glimpse of the numbers on it, Bai Lingfei immediately beamed with a radiant smile, “Mr. Liu really is financially strong. I hope we can cooperate for a long time!” She swiftly clamped the check with her fingers, took out a stack of documents from the drawer, and handed them to Liu Hun, “Here is the information about the auction, including details about your biggest competitor.” Liu Hun flipped through the documents and deeply felt that the one hundred thousand was well spent. Knowing who his opponent was, he could employ a targeted strategy. In the end, Bai Lingfei personally escorted the god of wealth, Liu Hun, to the door of the law firm, shook his hand and said, “Mr. Liu, we’ll see you at the court auction in three days!” “Goodbye!” Liu Hun shook hands with Bai Lingfei. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, but his facial expression did not change at all. After exchanging pleasantries, he left. Watching Liu Hun’s car disappear from view, Bai Lingfei gently twirled a ring on her index finger, a ring that hadn’t appeared when she had first shaken hands with Liu Hun, and her fine brows furrowed involuntarily. “Fei, did you get anything?” A husky, seductive voice behind Bai Lingfei asked her, sounding like a magnet pulling at the heart. Bai Lingfei didn’t turn around but stared towards the end of the road, a mix of reluctance, disappointment, and confusion in her voice, “No, I couldn’t get any information about him. When my senses made contact with him, it was like hitting a wall, everything was bounced back.” “Ha-ha-ha-ha, don’t lose heart! Red Spider, that woman known as the man’s nemesis, laid such a deep trap and couldn’t get anything on him. It’s our first attempt, so it’s not a big deal,” the unseen woman in the shadows comforted Bai Lingfei. “Hmph! Don’t mention that brazen woman who goes around barely dressed! I’m nothing like her!” Bai Lingfei said with disgust. Then, staring into the distance, she silently swore to herself, Liu Hun, I must find out what kind of person you are! Liu Hun, holding the information he had bought from Bai Lingfei for one hundred thousand, went straight to Liao Qianji’s place. Besides Zhao Mingjie and Liao Qianji, this time there was an addition, Zhong Xiao. Zhong Xiao had hired several nannies for his own mother, who was well cared for in Yuhua City’s People’s Hospital best VIP recuperation ward. With Xiao Yanzhu, the hospital director, watching over her, he was one hundred percent at ease. In his heart, he believed in retaliating for grudges and repaying kindness. Especially with such a great debt as saving his life and his mother’s life, so the moment Liu Hun called him, he hurried over immediately. After inquiring about Zhong Xiao’s mother’s condition, Liu Hun began to arrange the matter at hand. He placed the materials on the table and told the people around him, “We must win this court auction! This Hong Yuangui is our main competitor in this auction, and according to the information I got from Ms. Bai, this person likely has deep connections with the court.”
