Chapter 150

"If you ask me, let's stop being so timid! Let's find a time to grab that woman and get it over with!" A man with a face full of scars said viciously.

Jiang Wencheng stood aside, listening to these words, but only pursed his lips slightly, walked to the side without saying a word, and found a dilapidated chair to sit down.

He frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "This isn't a bad idea, but..."

"That woman stays in the hospital every day, and there are people guarding the area around the hospital. There's nowhere to make a move." Jiang Wencheng slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, which filled the dimly lit room. He sighed helplessly.

He had witnessed the scene at the hospital these past few days and wondered what kind of important figure was staying there, so heavily guarded that not even a fly could get in.

"Boss, she can't stay in the hospital every day, can she?"
"That's it! They'll have to go home eventually, and when she gets home, no one will be following her." A tall, thin man's eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly thought of a brilliant idea, and he said excitedly.

Jiang Wencheng abruptly stopped smoking, and a slight smile of appreciation slowly crept onto his lips.

He strode forward and patted the tall, thin man heavily on the shoulder. "You're pretty smart, kid!"
These next few days, you all better behave yourselves. One by one, stay put and keep a close eye on that woman's movements. Report anything immediately!

After finishing his tirade, Jiang Wencheng turned and strode into the inner room.

Upon seeing the shipment on the bedside table, my heart, which had just settled down, was instantly filled with a renewed sense of irritation.

Now, reselling this stuff is harder than climbing to heaven. Anyone with a little bit of a nerve would run away as soon as they hear about it.

But if we take it back, who knows what problems might arise at the border? It's really troublesome.

At the hospital, Xia Zhi finished two surgeries and was so tired that her back ached. She could finally take a break.

She leaned back in her chair and suddenly remembered the purpose of her visit.

"Lu Beiting, will you come with me to the auction? I still have that stone from last time," Xia Zhi said, her eyes sparkling.

Lu Beiting hadn't even seen his precious stone yet.

Xia Zhi rested her chin on her hand.

Lu Beiting helped her pack her luggage, so it seemed a bit unreasonable to just take it out of there.

As Xia Zhi was thinking, she inadvertently glanced at the cabinet in the room, her eyes lit up, and she excitedly slapped her thigh and stood up.

"It's in the wardrobe. It was too heavy last time, so I didn't take it back with me." Xia Zhi said as she walked quickly to the wardrobe, opened the door, and immediately saw the neatly folded spare bedding inside.

She moved swiftly, cleverly blocking Lu Beiting's view with her body, and then quickly took out the stone. She then grabbed the bed sheet next to her and carefully wrapped the stone in it.

"Take it easy, I'll take it." Lu Beiting walked over quickly, and seeing Xia Zhi struggling, he took the heavy stone from her hands with a pained expression.

Back by the bedside, Xia Zhi eagerly opened the package. "Look, it's imperial green!"

Lu Beiting stared in shock, his face full of disbelief. "Xiaxia, you...you're amazing!"

"Right, right? I think I'm awesome too." Xia Zhi laughed happily, reaching out to gently touch the smooth surface of the stone.

"Shall we go sell them?" Xia Zhi looked up at Lu Beiting.

Lu Beiting pondered for a moment, then looked at her seriously and said, "I think we can hold off on selling it for now. This thing might go up in price later."

Xia Zhi nodded in agreement, "Okay, then let's leave it for now."

"Is it safe for you to put it here?" Lu Beiting asked, still a little uneasy, as he watched her rewrap the stone.

Xia Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then patted her chest and assured her, "Safe, absolutely safe, don't worry!"

Seeing this, Lu Beiting didn't know what else to say, so he could only nod. "If you want to go to the auction, we'll go. It's okay if you don't sell anything; just go and join in the fun."

Lu Beiting put the stone down and looked back at Xia Zhi tenderly. He thought that it would be a good thing for Xia Zhi to go out and relax.

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi's eyes lit up instantly. "Let's go then! I can't wait!"

Lu Beiting smiled and nodded, "Okay, you can go down first, I'll come down later."

Xia Zhi nodded obediently, then turned and ran briskly downstairs.

Lu Beiting watched Xia Zhi's figure disappear before turning around and heading to Zhang Yi and the others' residence.

"Knock knock knock!" He raised his hand and knocked on the door, his voice steady and powerful.

Upon hearing the knock, Zhang Yi immediately opened the door, stood at attention, and respectfully greeted, "Battalion Commander!"

"Zhang Yi, let's go to the auction house. Those people definitely won't let this opportunity pass us by."

"When the time comes, our men and Commander Chen's men will be in ambush all around, waiting for my signal. Understand?" Lu Beiting commanded in a low voice, his expression stern.

"Okay, I'll go call Commander Chen's house right now." Zhang Yi nodded in agreement and turned to make the call.

Lu Beiting nodded, "I'll take Xiaxia and go ahead. You all act according to the situation, and make sure nothing goes wrong."

After Lu Beiting went downstairs, he walked up to Yu Qing and said softly, "Aunt Yu, we're going out for a while, don't worry."

"Okay, be careful." Yu Qing nodded with a smile and didn't ask any more questions.

Lu Beiting walked to the car, opened the door, and got into the driver's seat.

He leaned over to Xia Zhi and gently fastened her seatbelt, then carefully pulled up the curtain on her side.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Xia Zhi watched Lu Beiting intently fastening her seatbelt, her heart pounding faster and her chest trembling slightly.

This was the first time she had ridden in a car driven by Lu Beiting.

She stole a glance at Lu Beiting, who was sitting in the driver's seat. His profile was sharp and strong, exuding the unique determination of a soldier.

Her high, straight nose, as straight as a mountain peak, cast a light shadow on her cheeks, and her slightly raised brow bone made her eyes appear deep and bright.

From the side, he exudes an irresistible aura of hormones.

Xia Zhi took a deep breath and unconsciously tightened her grip on the seatbelt.

Lu Beiting noticed her movement, his body stiffened slightly, and he turned to look at her with a serious expression. "Xiaxia, my technique is very good, you don't need to be so nervous."

"No, I was just a little excited because it was the first time I'd seen you drive. It's not that I don't trust you," Xia Zhi quickly explained, a slight blush rising on her face.

Lu Beiting was taken aback, then realized that it was true; he hadn't driven in a long time.

"Let's go, let's go." Xia Zhi was a little embarrassed and urged Lu Beiting, not wanting to continue the topic.

Lu Beiting hummed in agreement, looked away, and focused on driving.

The car had barely driven off when it was spotted by Jiang Wencheng's men who were lying in wait nearby.

"Quick, go tell the boss I'll go after him and see what's going on," the man whispered. Then he quickly got on his motorcycle and followed Lu Beiting's car at a distance.
