Chapter 717: The Old Place
[X City, A Luxury Antique Store]
A certain fox was negotiating the price of a peculiar antique sneeze when he muttered to himself, "Achoooo! Did anyone speak ill of me behind my back?"
"Dear guest, does this antique catch your eye?" inquired the manager, who regarded Xiao Li’s extraordinary presence with a respectful demeanor.
Behind Xiao Li stood several large men, their unremarkable features reminiscent of background characters, even when they wore masks, each of them carrying black suitcases.
What lay within those suitcases? Money, antiques, and other valuable items he had collected from various shops throughout X City.
"Xiao Li, I think we should find a place to stash these suitcases first," Feng Huang suggested.
Feng Huang altered his appearance, transforming his stunning features into something much more commonplace.
In simpler terms, his striking looks had driven women in the city wild whenever he walked down the street. Now, he patted his chest in trepidation and covered his face with a mask to prevent people from peeking at him.
At that moment, several men glanced outside the store, their eyes glimmering with a cold light.
"Since they want to play, why not oblige them?" Xiao Li, Feng Huang, Tian Tian, Lu Long, and Xiao Qiu remarked with cold smiles.
A sudden chill enveloped everyone in the store, though they couldn’t see the men’s expressions behind their masks.
