Inheritance of Two Trillion-Chapter 2131 - 1623: Such a Fake Scheme
Robert volunteered to be Bai Xiaosheng’s guide, and Bai Yuefeng’s first reaction was to refuse; she didn’t want to spend more time with him.
However, Bai Xiaosheng agreed quite readily.
Bai Yuefeng couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful and tried to "remedy" the situation.
"Robert, today is an important day for your sister, you just accompany her. I’ll show my friend around here for a bit, and then we’ll come over."
To persuade Robert, Bai Yuefeng even gave him a sweet smile.
Robert was clearly dazzled by Bai Yuefeng’s gorgeous smile, but he steadied himself and responded with a smile, "It’s okay, Yuefeng, there’s plenty of time. Besides, even though this is Chinatown, I’m a Ganande citizen. In Huaxia, there’s a saying, ’Isn’t it delightful to have friends coming from afar?’ I should fulfill my duty as a host."
Bai Yuefeng looked at Robert in astonishment.
She had really underestimated this Robert; he even knew famous quotes from the Analects.
Bai Xiaosheng and the others were also quite surprised.
"Besides, I’m very familiar with Chinatown, I can definitely be a guide." Robert smiled as he made a gesture of invitation to Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and took a step forward.
Robert followed.
Seeing this scene, Bai Yuefeng felt helpless and gave up on "struggling", and joined them.
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying followed afterward.
The remaining four bodyguards spread out and followed closely behind.
Robert indeed started acting as Bai Xiaosheng’s guide, walking just a hundred steps out, he enthusiastically began introducing the area to Bai Xiaosheng.
"This street beneath our feet is one of Chinatown’s main streets in Ganande, the main tax source of the district, with hundreds of shops along the street, generating tremendous revenue annually..."
"Over there, the street will be upgraded next year to introduce more business formats, but changes will be made to better reflect Huaxia’s flair, which will bring significant revenue..."
"And here, renovations will be carried out in the latter half of this year, creating a thousand jobs for Ganande during the entire project..."
Robert’s introduction barely mentioned customs, traditions, or historical anecdotes, focusing entirely on district planning and commerce.
Only the offspring of politicians and businessmen view externals with such a perspective. This Robert had such well-informed insights, easily discussing the district’s five-year plan—he must come from some significant commercial family with rich political resources.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile, analyzing Robert, painting a real image of him in his mind.
"Hey, what are you even introducing, it sounds so boring." Bai Yuefeng interrupted impatiently.
Robert gave her an apologetic yet gentle smile, then looked at Bai Xiaosheng and asked, "Sir, I’ve been chatting for so long but still don’t know how to address you."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled, "My last name is Bai, you can just call me ’Bai’."
Although this Robert understood Huaxia culture well, and his words seemed translated, he still pronounced Chinese words somewhat awkwardly as could be noted from his pronunciation of "Yuefeng".
Rather than hearing him awkwardly say his full name, it was simpler this way, besides, he surely didn’t really care about his full name.
"Bai?" Robert was momentarily stunned, then said with surprise, "So you’re family with Yuefeng?"
"No, we just share the same surname." Bai Xiaosheng shook his head, "We’re not related by blood, we didn’t even know each other before."
Robert appeared slightly disappointed.
If Bai Xiaosheng was really related to Bai Yuefeng, it would be better, proving that their whispering earlier wasn’t of great significance. Robert’s resentment towards him would also lessen considerably.
"Bai, what do you do; what brings you to Ganande?" Robert naturally asked.
Bai Xiaosheng could clearly see through the smile hiding this person’s hostility towards him.
He probably still hadn’t let go of what happened earlier, holding it tightly...
People who bear grudges always harbor malicious intentions.
Right now, since he was unsure of his identity, he was pumping him for information, assessing if he was worth engaging with.
After all, someone who could be friends with Bai Yuefeng likely wasn’t ordinary.
Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t afraid of him, he smiled and said, "I’m employed and here in Ganande for business at our company’s headquarters."
"Is it your family business?" Robert asked with a smile.
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head directly, "Unlike Mr. Robert, I didn’t come from any illustrious family. My family’s in Huaxia and just ordinary."
Robert smiled and nodded, his eyes flashed with a hint of disdain.
He had befriended some ordinary people, but they were all beauties.
Apparently, it wasn’t surprising that Bai Yuefeng knew a few common folks.
Seeing Robert disregard Bai Xiaosheng, Bai Yuefeng felt uneasy.
Although Bai Xiaosheng came from humble beginnings, today, even without considering his connections to the Wei family, his status and position alone were on par with Robert’s entire family—all achieved through his efforts!
For Robert, who relied on family, to look down on him was absurd!
Bai Yuefeng almost couldn’t help but speak up for Bai Xiaosheng.
"Sister Bai, look at that, it’s so pretty." Lin Weiwei interrupted timely, distracting Bai Yuefeng and subtly signaling her with a wink and a slight shake of the head.
Bai Xiaosheng disliked any meaningless show-off.
Bai Yuefeng, being clever, understood immediately but still felt some unease.
At this moment, Lei Ying glanced around with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
He realized that one of Robert’s four bodyguards had mysteriously disappeared at some point.
It was the very expert that had first caught his attention.
"Passing through here, we can reach the next street, let’s go this way." Robert suddenly stopped, pointing towards a narrow alley, and smiled to Bai Xiaosheng.
Then, Robert pointed to one of his bodyguards, "Let two people go and tell my sister that we’re having fun and will join later."
The bodyguard nodded and left.
"This alley looks so secluded." Bai Yuefeng peered inside and muttered.
Robert smiled immediately, "Don’t worry, I have bodyguards."
"Who’s afraid!" Bai Yuefeng retorted.
"Also, I’m a very skilled boxer." Robert made a boxing gesture, glancing at Lei Ying, "Earlier, I was caught off guard by Bai’s bodyguard, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been so easily outdone! If the fight had continued earlier, I wouldn’t have lost!"
Robert’s expression showed some reluctance.
Seemed like he spared Lei Ying only because Bai Yuefeng spoke up.
Lei Ying smiled upon hearing this.
Bai Yuefeng rolled her eyes silently.
Robert made a gesture inviting them into the alley, eager to lead the way.
Bai Xiaosheng followed with a meaningful smile.
Bai Yuefeng, Lin Weiwei, and Lei Ying had no choice but to follow.
The remaining two bodyguards quickened their steps, moving ahead of them, apparently to scout the path.
Robert waved, gesturing them to move quickly and not block the way.
The two bodyguards obliged, hurrying forward.
The alley was very quiet, with only faint sounds of the noisy outside world reaching them.
Around a bend, they suddenly heard fighting sounds.
When Bai Xiaosheng and his companions turned the corner, they found the two leading bodyguards lying on the ground, facing six black-clad men wearing festive masks and wielding bats and metal pipes.
In broad daylight, an ambush?!
"Who are you!" Robert shouted in anger and surprise.
The two women looked shocked.
Robert stepped forward, shielding Bai Yuefeng protectively.
"I’ll protect you!" Robert reassured Bai Yuefeng.
Behind them, Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying exchanged glances, communicating silently with their eyes.
They both felt helpless.
"That masked one on the right, isn’t that Robert’s bodyguard, the one who disappeared earlier..."
"Robert’s expression and voice...not convincing enough, too fake..."
Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying were sharp enough to see through it at a glance.
This was clearly a hero-saving-the-beauty show directed by Robert himself.
Cliché, predictable.
Bai Xiaosheng was speechless, noticing Robert sneak a glance at him.
The look was sinister.
Bai Xiaosheng squinted, "Hmm, even though it’s fake, they’ll likely target me for real in a moment!"
