Chapter 47 Xiao Bing Has To Die

Xiao Bing came to Li Chunlan’s ward after finishing the busy noon rush. Sitting and talking with Li Chunlan, he could see that Li Chunlan was in good spirits, especially after hearing that the business of the Xiaoxiao Noodle House was so hot after being managed by Xiao Bing. She looked even better after hearing this.

Xiao Bing saw that Li Chunlan was happy so he proposed his idea of an expansion. After hearing this, Li Chunlan was silent for a moment. Xiao Bing thought that Li Chunlan was unwilling to expand the noodle house. He hurriedly said, “Maybe I was too eager to suggest this. It’s only a suggestion. If you don’t like it, just forget it.”

“It’s okay.” Li Chunlan looked at Xiao Bing with a face of relief and sighed, “Young people dare to think and dare to do things. When my husband was young, he was like you, so he was able to start from nothing. Although I am old, my thoughts keep pace with the times. You’re right, taking advantage of the current momentum, it’s really a good time to expand. I’ll check and see if I have enough money. If I don’t, I could borrow some, or loan some from the bank…”

“Don’t worry about the money.” Xiao Bing said with a smile, “Auntie Li, I have also earned a lot of money in the army over the past few years. How about this, I will pay the money. When the noodle shop makes more money and earns enough to pay me back, I will take it back then.”

“How can I do that?” Li Chunlan frowned and refused, “That’s the money you worked so hard to earn. Although business is booming now, I can’t let you put all your money into my business. What if an accident happens? I can’t be so selfish… Lil Bin, you don’t have to worry about it. I’ll just go to the bank for a loan, and there’s not much interest anyway.”

Xiao Bing laughed, “Auntie Li, it is you who shouldn’t worry about it. If I just keep my money to myself, it means nothing. On the contrary, our noodle house is enjoying such a great momentum that it is a good time to expand. What about this, I will put the money in. Consider it as my share. What do you think? Hmmm… the Xiaoxiao Noodle House is in such a good condition now. It may be able to do much better in the future. You won’t be reluctant to let me take up the shares, will you?”

Li Chunlan laughed, “You boy, what are you talking about… But your proposal is quite good. If you really want to invest, you can have a stake in it. We can work out the assets of the noodle house and your share in it when you have time. Then we can sign an equity agreement. However, I’m telling you that if you lose your money, I’m not the one to be blamed.”

Xiao Bing smiled, “Auntie, don’t worry. I am confident that I’ve got good judgment.”

Li Chunlan laughed, “You can be in charge of all these things, the expansion, the recruitment of new employees. You guys have been super busy for the last couple of days. I’ll double your salary this month.”

Xiao Bing laughed, “Our big boss is so generous. I’ll tell them when I get back.”

Li Chunlan laughed, “Come on, don’t flatter me. Don’t forget, you are also one of the owners of this noodle house in the future. My body is getting worse and worse, and Xiaoxiao has put her energy on studying. Her sister only comes back a few times a year. The Xiaoxiao Noodle House is my lifelong dream and their father’s dream too, and all of it is entrusted to you…”

Xiao Bing agreed and suddenly felt that their expectations of him had suddenly become heavy. The Xiaoxiao Noodle House was not only an ordinary restaurant but also the lifelong dream of the parents of the Su family. Although Su Xiaoxiao’s father had died, his dream was inherited by Li Chunlan. Now, Li Chunlan had delivered their dream to his own hands. This was their trust in him. Of course, he definitely must live up to their trust, and it was also a kind of compensation for the Su family.

Xiao Bing chatted with Li Chunlan for a while about the expansion. But he didn’t tell her about Su Xiaoxiao’s fever. He didn’t return to the noodle house after coming out of the hospital but instead went straight to the vegetable market.

Xiao Bing received a phone call from Yezi when he just walked to the entrance of the vegetable market. After the phone was connected, Yezi asked with a faint smile, “Brother Bing, why didn’t you go to the noodle house during the day? I brought my classmates to join us for lunch at noon. I heard that Xiaoxiao was ill?”

Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, “Yes, she had a fever and couldn’t even go to class today.”

“Oh, you take good care of Xiaoxiao then.”

“Hey, are you jealous?”

Yezi chuckled, “No, seriously. Now, auntie is still in the hospital. Xiaoxiao is the only one at home. You are the only man in that family. You should take good care of her. I can understand.”

Xiao Bing was touched in his heart.

“My family asked me to invite you to dinner today. I turned it down for you, and we’ll talk about it when you’re not busy.”

Xiao Bing thought for a moment and said, “I should have time tomorrow.”

“Okay, when you confirm the time tomorrow, I’ll let them know. This time you were able to invite Mr. Zhang to cure my dad’s illness. Our whole family is very grateful to you. He couldn’t get out of bed earlier, so he didn’t invite you. Today he looks much better than before in every way, so he specially invited you to come over for a simple meal to thank you in person.”

Xiao Bing laughed, “If there are no special circumstances tomorrow, I will definitely go.”

“If you can confirm it tomorrow, call me and I’ll pick you up.”

“Oh, I’m going to see my future father-in-law, do I have to prepare some gifts?”

Yezi giggled and said, “You wish. I haven’t decided whether I should marry you. Maybe I will break up with you one day when I meet someone better.”

Xiao Bing laughed, “I am bold, cautious and shameless. It is not so easy to dump me.”

“Hehe, let’s see…”

The two of them flirted for a while. Then knowing that Xiao Bing had work to do, plus there was a class for Yezi, they hung up the phone and Xiao Bing went straight to the vegetable market.

After several days, Xiao Bing was still safe and sound. Xie Lun finally couldn’t keep his cool anymore and came to see the Peony Fairy again.

The Peony Fairy met him in the Hall of Heavenly Kings. Before meeting him, the Peony Fairy had already guessed that he was going to question her. Earlier, the Peony Fairy didn’t expect Xiao Bing to be so difficult to deal with. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken up this matter so easily.

Xie Lun didn’t look happy. After taking a seat, he asked the Peony Fairy directly, regardless of her feelings. “Fairy, you are the North Heavenly Queen of the Jiang City. You have the power to decide the lives and deaths of people in the north of Jiang City. You surely can solve a small problem like Xiao Bing, can’t you?”

The Peony Fairy said with a faint tone, “This Xiao Bing is really difficult to deal with. His skill is very high. Judging from how he took down Chang Huai’an, his schemes are also very deep. He is not a simple-minded person who only knows how to fight. To deal with such a person, either we will not start any fights, or once we start, he must be killed, it not there will be endless troubles.”

Xie Lun said calmly, “Are you still waiting for the right time?”

“I need a complete plan. Boss Xie, since I have taken your money, I will certainly handle this affair. I have already lost several capable men for this matter. Even Clear-Strength masters were killed by Xiao Bing. Do you think I need to be more cautious?”

Xie Lun’s heart beat faster and he looked terrified. “Xiao Bing even killed a Clear-Strength master. If he knew that the employer behind this was me, will there be a disaster for me?” The thought of this made Xie Lun deepen the idea of killing Xiao Bing. If he didn’t die, Xie Lun would probably die miserably.

The Peony Fairy said calmly, “Don’t worry, Boss Xie. As you said, although Xiao Bing is strong, he is only one person after all. And he cares too much. I believe that this man will not escape from the palm of my hand.”

In Xie Lun’s eyes, his killing intent was clear, “Then I’ll leave it to you, Fairy.”

Xiao Bing finished buying vegetables in the market and returned to the compound. He was about to go upstairs when Lil Bei walked behind him and called him, “Brother Bing.”

“Hmm?” Xiao Bing stopped, turned to Lil Bei and smiled, “Thanks to you for the past few days.”

Lil Bei’s face was full of sunshine. No one could see through this sunshine boy’s heart to see whether he was sad or not. No one knew how many regrets were behind his smile. From the moment Xiao Bing knew Lil Bei, which was several years ago, all he could see was Lil Bei’s bright and simple smile.

“I’m good. Brother Bing, do you have any clues to the death of Sister Peiya?”

“Not yet.” Xiao Bing frowned and sighed, “Xiaoxiao has searched all the places she could find, but she can’t find any clues at all. And Xiaoxiao doesn’t remember having any evidence with her. I suspect that what that man said before he died, maybe it was not true.”

Lil Bei answered and suddenly said, “Could that person have been instigating to sow discord? Maybe his purpose was to let you leave Dragon Teeth temporarily and then let the people behind him take action.”

“We can’t exclude this possibility.” Xiao Bing said with a solemn face, “Since I started my career, I have experienced various tasks and met various top rivals from various countries. I have never felt like this before. I feel as if there is a fog in front of me, and I am in the fog. I am tied to a rope and being led by others without knowing what I am doing.”

“Oh right.” Xiao Bing said seriously, “These two days I have encountered some small troubles. Someone is against me. I suspect that the person behind this is the old guy named Xie Lun. But it is also possible for it to be others… You go and find out for me, which organization did Da Ben and Er Ben belong to? Or who did they work for?”

Lil Bei nodded to show he knew what to do.

Xiao Bing laughed, “When this thing is finished, let’s find a time to talk properly. By the way, can you drink more now?”

Lil Bei grabbed his hair and smiled shyly, causing Xiao Bing to burst out laughing, “Hahaha, you boy, in the entire Dragon Teeth, you’re the only one who gets drunk after one cup. Hahahaha.”
