1702 A Mediocre Huo Yao
Huo Yao simply glanced at the man calmly. She went around him and continued walking.
The man raised his brow subtly, but he made no intention to slow down or turn his head.
After turning at the bend, he walked back to his private room. At the same time, he hung up the phone.
Two other people were present in the private room.
“Mr. Fan, are you done considering? What say you?” A middle-aged man sitting on the main seat looked at Fan Shun when he got back. His voice sounded particularly courteous.
Fan Shun sat down in the seat looking nonchalant. “That can wait.”
The man sitting on the main seat frowned, seeming annoyed. His hand on the armrest automatically pressed down hard. He contemplated briefly but did not show his emotions.
“If you’re willing to provide us with the medicine to alter DNA, we can work together on a long-term basis. I’m sure you will find that it can be a very favorable relationship.”
The middle-aged man made his offer again.
Fan Shun leaned into the seat with his legs crossed casually looking very relaxed.
He did not look at the middle-aged man. Instead, he kept his eyes outside the balcony. “The fair is about to begin.”
The moment he finished his sentence, the host’s voice could be heard coming from downstairs.
The middle-aged man stopped talking.
A partnership with Fan Shun was very important to him, but the weapons at the fair were even more important.
Fan Shun adjusted his posture. An image of the girl he ran into outside the bathroom emerged in his head.
Even though he had only seen her inside his investigation reports, her outstanding features made it impossible not to notice her.
Huo Yao returned from the countryside three years ago. During the initial years of her life, she had been mediocre. After she reunited with her family, she was a completely different young woman.
When they nearly ran into each other, the young woman was able to evade him nimbly. No ordinary person could have moves like hers.
Fan Shun smiled with intrigue.
He was not very interested in the weapons at the fair. He paused briefly before he raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man. “I don’t mind working together, but I want someone.”
Shangguan Hou wanted to use Fan Shun to achieve what he wanted.
**
Huo Yao had already gone back to the private room.
Shangguan Yun stood on the balcony looking down. As each weapon got pushed out and displayed, it suddenly dawned on him why the old man would readily agree to let him get something from the fair earlier.
The weapons offered at the fair were all heavy artillery and completely unsuitable for personal use.
If he strode out with a cannon on his shoulder, he was certain that the cops would kill him like a terrorist on the spot.
Huo Yao walked up beside Shangguan Yun and looked at the heavy artillery in the hall downstairs. She was a little surprised.
She had a keen interest in artillery, but it was the first time she had seen such heavy artillery used for defense.
Even back at the Shangguan clan, she had never encountered these among the images left in the secret chamber in the ancestral hall.
Then again, if the Shangguan family knew everything, they would have ended up becoming the most formidable force on earth.
“This is kind of boring,” said Shangguan Yun as he sighed and pouted.
Huo Yao kept her eyes downstairs. She could not help tutting and said, “The prices look good.”
Any random product was worth hundreds of millions. No wonder the guy was rich.
He made staggering profits!
Shangguan Yun’s lips twitched. He found her embarrassing, so he turned to leave the private room.
As he veered his eyes, he happened to see someone standing on the balcony coming from the private room across from them. The man had an intense aura.
From the looks of it, it was no ordinary man.
Shangguan Yun simply took a quick glance and quickly walked in.
