Li Yan also smiled: "Yes, bullets become very expensive in our hands, it’s not worth killing for free." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

At the same time, he was slightly surprised. Such a big commotion is very crucial, no wonder Victoria needs to coordinate at the back.

"Yes, those who want us to kill are very valuable, ordinary people aren’t worth the effort."

"It seems like quite a spectacle, if we only gain half from this time, it’s not very worthwhile."

Listening to Li Yan, Sonia was a bit regretful: "There’s no choice, cross-industry operations are like this, sometimes things seem promising, but the actual results may not be satisfactory. Perhaps others prepared earlier than us, they might be more disappointed."

"Perhaps."

Li Yan felt his phone vibrate, took it out to check, it was a message from Chen Junwei, anxiously asking why he hasn’t arrived yet? He also mentioned that the restroom is ready for him!

This made him sweat a bit, being able to handle the matter while arm-in-arm with a foreign beauty and laughing is certainly better than hiding in the restroom! Moreover, after hearing Sonia’s words, he felt that Chen Junwei was a bit naive this time. If it was really just a fight, perhaps he could handle several people alone, but when smoke bombs, tear gas, and tranquilizer darts come into play, how much room for maneuver would he have?

And if they really wanted to kill him, no matter how skilled he is, can he dodge the bullets from a super assassin?

"Has it arrived already?" Sonia was a bit surprised.

Li Yan smiled, "Unfortunately, not yet, but we still have some time. I believe you won’t disappoint me."

Sonia reluctantly smiled, "I can’t guarantee either, after all, this isn’t something that can be immediately accomplished by hand, there may be other delays... Anyway, we don’t intend to become enemies with you, we’re happy to become allies. If you’re still uneasy, after everything’s over, you can take me as a hostage, and only release me after receiving the money. I’m sure Victoria wouldn’t sacrifice me for the sake of monopolizing the profit."

"No need to rush, isn’t it still too early to make a final decision?"

"Hmm, but we’ve been standing here for quite a while, it might raise suspicion." Sonia deliberately leaned her face closer to Li Yan’s head, from the sides, it appeared as if she was passionately kissing his neck.

After putting on a show, the two walked forward arm-in-arm with an ambiguous smile, heading towards that multifunctional meeting hall.

The hallway was spacious, and after they walked across it, they quickly saw the security guards standing against the wall, all alert. The two of them looked with admiration, passed by them, went through the lounge where antiques were stored, and arrived at the auction venue.

Upon entering the venue, there was strict invitation scrutiny, those without an invitation couldn’t enter. Sonia and her group had somehow obtained an invitation. It was naturally in Sonia’s name, and Li Yan was accompanying her.

The meeting hall was large, now arranged as an auction venue, as all the guests were either wealthy or distinguished, there was no feeling of surveillance from security inside; they were stationed outside.

"Seems like there aren’t many people." Sonia glanced around the venue, smiling as she spoke softly.

"The earlier one arrives, the less weight they seem to have. In settings like these, early arrivals often have the air of nouveau riche. Those who consider themselves dignified and experienced usually arrive at the last moment." Li Yan explained.

"It doesn’t matter, we’ll wait until everyone arrives... The main thing is everything arriving before we take action."

"Actually, we should focus on the other group of main competitors, whether they’ve arrived or not, and what their method is..." Li Yan reminded: "Although we’ve agreed to only go for half, if someone else gets there first, I doubt they’d kindly leave half, and if we arrive first, I suppose it’ll be just the same."

Sonia pondered, "Naturally, we hope to be the first to act, first to arrive... But these people seem more professional than us, I believe they won’t be lacking in expertise..."

As Li Yan’s gaze drifted, he spotted Zhang Yurong and Yue Yao!

The two of them are always so remarkable. Whenever Zhang Yurong appears at an occasion, she often eclipses the charm of other women, always becoming the most dazzling, most captivating one. This time is no exception, especially at an antique auction attended by the wealthy and distinguished, apart from a few young heirs, most attendees are older, so their companions are typically their wives. Therefore, there are only a few young women. Regardless of the luxurious jewelry worn by those young companions, when they encounter Zhang Yurong, they’re overshadowed, let alone the older aunties.

Of course, there’s someone who wasn’t outshone, that is Yue Yao with her unique dreamy charisma, impossible to ignore. Together with Yurong, she did not become a mere adornment but instead complemented each other beautifully.
