Chapter 663 Arms Deal (3)_1
He didn’t dare take the risk. He couldn’t guarantee that the speed of his bullets would be faster than the bullets in the hands of so many others.
Xiao Qing glared at Uncle Qiang, his eyes full of blame. Hadn’t he sworn to him that he had thoroughly figured out the plans for this arms deal? What was happening now? It was clear that Xiao Muli had long seen through his hidden maneuvering and had calmly made new arrangements.
Uncle Qiang, feeling guilty under the young master’s stern look, had not expected such a blunder. "Young master, this was my fault. I will personally accept punishment when we return."
"Huh, accept punishment when we return? We don’t even know if we can make it back safely yet," Xiao Qing shifted his gaze away from Uncle Qiang.
"Young master, don’t worry, Xiao Muli wouldn’t dare do anything to us. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to the Xiao Family when he gets back." Uncle Qiang didn’t think their lives were in danger; otherwise, he wouldn’t have acted on his own, concealing it from Xiao Qing’s father.
"Enough, shut up," Xiao Qing was in no mood to engage in pointless talk with Uncle Qiang. His mind was preoccupied with thoughts about "Yan’s" men, wondering whether they had been discovered by Xiao Muli.
No one in the Xiao Family knew about "Yan", nor did they know he had a connection with "Yan". The deployment of "Yan’s" men had been his precautionary measure, and he silently prayed Xiao Muli hadn’t discovered "Yan’s" men.
As Xiao Qing prayed and looked in the direction of the arms warehouse, he just happened to see the hand grenades thrown by "Yan’s" two leaders. He felt a surge of relief, "Yan’s" people hadn’t been discovered by Xiao Muli. He thought, even with Xiao Muli’s capabilities, he wouldn’t know of his connection with "Yan".
Simultaneously, Xiao Muli’s face darkened, then he quickened his pace, ignoring Edward beside him, and headed straight for the arms warehouse. Finding walking too slow, he broke into a run.
Watching Xiao Muli’s sudden actions, those who hadn’t seen the hand grenade were confused. Xuan and Che exchanged glances, seeing bewilderment in each other’s eyes. When Edward saw Xiao Muli leaving him behind, he called out to Xiao Muli’s retreating figure, "Mr. Xiao, where are you going? You haven’t taken me to inspect the goods yet."
"Hehe, hehe," Xiao Qing, surrounded by others, couldn’t help feeling schadenfreude watching Xiao Muli’s departing back. "Edward, Xiao Muli doesn’t have time to take you to inspect the goods now. Oh, no, it’s not about having no time, it’s just that if he’s a bit slower, there won’t be any goods left for you to inspect."
