Chapter 119 Questions
Smith was getting anxious, eager to know when Si Lan would wake up.

But Shang Xingjian was in no hurry at all. He was very unhurried, even when he ate, he was very slow and leisurely. No matter how you looked at him, you just wanted to punch him a few times.

But unfortunately, no one dared to beat him up.

“If there’s anything missing, I can go find it,” Smith offered. “Although I don’t know much about your stuff, everything in this world has a price.”

"Everything in this world has a price." Shang Xingjian repeated this sentence, seemingly in agreement, yet also seemingly in sarcasm.

"However, the thing I'm waiting for is something you can't buy even if you have money."

"What is it?" Smith asked eagerly.

Merchant Jian looked at Smith with a half-smile, "What if I said it was your heart? That doesn't cost money, but you have to be willing to give it up."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Mai immediately looked at Shang Xingjian, seemingly trying to discern from his expression whether he was serious or joking.

After reviewing the business summary, Cheng Mai looked at the stunned Smith, who was also incredulous.

"Can my heart really save him?" Smith murmured to himself.

Cheng Mai looked at it carefully and felt that Smith didn't seem to be lying; he was genuinely willing to give his life for Si Lan.

Cheng Mai looked at Si Lan, who was sitting in the wheelchair, again. Could there really be someone who would fall in love with someone they had barely spoken to and be willing to give their life for them?
Cheng Mai had never met her, and she didn't know much about her.

After finishing his meal, Shang Xingjian put down his chopsticks, seemingly having heard a joke, and even gave a slight smile.

Smith was puzzled by his laughter but didn't dare to say anything.

"Is it okay?" he simply asked.

"It's getting late, let's talk about it tomorrow." Shang Xingjian suddenly dismissed him, as if his previous words were just a joke. Smith hesitated, then Cheng Mai spoke up, "It is indeed very late today. If you want things to be resolved quickly, you should listen to him."

Smith sighed, told them to get some rest, and then left with Si Lan.

The door to the room closed, and Cheng Mai looked at Shang Xingjian, "Are you serious about wanting his heart?"

"Of course not, how could someone as kind as me do such a cruel thing?" Shang Xingjian looked at him with an expression that said, "How could you be so cruel?" as if he wasn't the one who had just said those words.

Cheng Mai looked at the drama queen Shang Xingjian expressionlessly, "There are no outsiders here, don't force me to hit you."

Merchant Jian seemed very interested in this matter. "How do we draw the numbers?"

Cheng Mai: "..." This person has a very strong ability to control a pervert.

Seeing Cheng Mai's speechless expression, Shang Xing felt even better, but he didn't keep her in suspense any longer.

“The killer whale is indeed difficult to deal with, mainly because Si Lan has been entangled with it for years and it’s hard to separate them.” Shang Xingjian was much more serious this time. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to rescue it, but he really needed to plan carefully.

He wanted to ensure that Si Lan was absolutely safe.

As Cheng Mai listened to Shang Xingjian's explanation, recalling the scene he had witnessed, he asked, "Does the orca become ferocious after it dies?"

"Yes, the kind of evil spirits that are usually created after death are those who have experienced great suffering before their death, whether they are human or other beings."

"Difficult to deal with?"

“They’re not easy to deal with,” Shang Xingjian said again. “If it were just about taking them in, that would be fine, but pulling Si Lan out of that vortex will take some effort.”

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival~~~
