Chapter 203: Kill a meal, no negotiation
After saying that, Baichuan looked at Lu Ming, wanting him to say something good about him.
Lu Ming turned his head away, completely ignoring Bai Chuan's pleading eyes.
He thought to himself, I've offended our Director Bai, how can I invite you back so easily?
This will make the old man Baichuan bleed heavily, otherwise, where will Director Bai put his face?
Seeing this, Baichuan looked at Hao Qingxian.
Hao Qingxian coughed lightly and said earnestly, "Old Bai, look at you. You've been so anxious that you've even forgotten your manners. When you apologize to someone, shouldn't you prepare some generous gifts?"
"Oh, that's right. It has to be Minister Hao. So, if you want to apologize to our Director Bai, can you just do it with your mouth? You have to be practical!" Lu Ming nodded and teased Bai Chuan.
Baichuan knew he was in the wrong, and even though he knew Lu Ming did it on purpose, he could only curse him in his heart.
But he had to put on a smile and said calmly, "Okay, Minister Lu, can you give me some advice? What should I send over to help Director Bai calm down?"
Seeing Bai Chuan being so humble, Lu Ming felt secretly happy. It was still a face-saving thing to be with Director Bai.
Lu Ming said with a hint of arrogance, "Director Bai is not only a cultivator, but also an alchemist. As for what to give me, it's up to you to decide. But let me be frank, if the gift you give me doesn't even meet my standards, then I won't accept it!"
At this point, Bai Chuan also understood that if he didn't bleed a little, he would be in trouble. So, he could only grit his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go get ready now!"
In just a moment, Baichuan had someone bring out twelve boxes, which contained high-quality spirit stones and some precious spiritual plants and herbs.
These are all rare things, and it seems that Baichuan put some thought into them.
When these things were placed before Lu Ming, although he thought they were pretty good, he still curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said disapprovingly, "Old Bai, you're just kidding me! Director Bai definitely won't be impressed by these."
When Bai Chuan heard what Lu Ming said, he immediately flew into a rage: "Old bastard! Don't go too far! Tell me honestly, which of these things isn't a priceless treasure? I think you're just trying to embarrass me!"
Hao Qingxian's deep voice came, "Old Bai, when Liang Ying said she wanted to give Director Bai a top-grade spirit stone, Director Bai didn't even raise his eyelids. This shows that Minister Lu was not lying."
Bai Chuan was stunned when he heard this. How arrogant must Director Bai be if he doesn't even care about the top-grade spirit stones?
But on second thought, it is normal. After all, he is an alchemist. High-grade elixirs are priceless. I am afraid that many people will exchange the precious items on hand for elixirs.
Director Bai must have become accustomed to these rare things in the eyes of ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Bai Chuan was a little troubled for a moment: "Old Lu, we have been friends for so many years, you can't just stand by and watch someone die. Besides, Rongwu City and Lingcheng City are adjacent to each other. What if the zombies run over to your side? We should catch them as soon as possible so that everyone can have peace of mind."
Seeing that Bai Chuan had played the emotional card, and his words were not without reason, Lu Ming finally relented and said, "How about this, don't hide it from me anymore. Didn't your department's sixth-grade spirit beast, the white-striped tiger, give birth to two cubs? Send one over, maybe Director Bai will like it."
The corners of Baichuan's mouth twitched slightly at this moment, and it was clear that this old guy was up to no good!
Hao Qingxian's brows twitched as well, and he looked at Lu Ming. "Are you serious? Director Bai would like tigers?"
Lu Ming touched his nose with his hand. Who knows? Who can say for sure? What if? Anyway, he decided to ask for it first.
"Okay! I'll get it for you!" Baichuan gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words, then went to get the spirit beast.
Bai Ningyu has already returned home.
Ma Ling asked curiously, "Xiaobai, are you really not going to care about the zombies anymore? And what memories did you transfer to He Miao?"
Bai Ningyu took a sip of tea and looked at the rain outside. She said lazily, "To be honest, I don't want to care."
Ma Ling became even more curious: "Could it be that there is some hidden secret behind this zombie?"
Seeing that Ma Ling was so curious, Bai Ningyu raised her hand and touched her eyebrows, and a picture instantly flooded into her mind.
When the image in her mind froze on the last shot, Ma Ling clenched her fists and said angrily, "Xiao Bai, since you don't want to care, then we won't care. Those people deserved to die!"
"Ding dong!"
The doorbell rings.
As expected, Lu Ming and his group appeared in front of Bai Ningyu again.
When Bai Chuan saw Bai Ningyu in person, he was obviously stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that she was even younger than what he saw in the video.
Lu Ming introduced Bai Ningyu.
Bai Chuan said with an apologetic smile, "Director Bai, I'm truly sorry. My subordinates were ignorant and offended you. I hope you can forgive me. I apologize to you here. I hope you can forgive me and put aside the past grudges and help us deal with the zombie issue."
As Baichuan said this, he waved his hand, and saw a row of people behind him neatly opening more than ten boxes in their hands.
"Director Bai, I would like to express my humble apologies. Please don't be offended." Bai Chuan looked at Bai Ningyu and prepared to have someone put the things on the table.
The things are good, but Bai Ningyu is no longer the Bai Ningyu before, and these things are no longer in her eyes.
Bai Ningyu immediately stopped him, saying, "I don't deserve that, Minister Bai. Didn't Vice Minister Liang previously solemnly say that I didn't need to get involved? I just don't want to get involved in this matter. Besides, I've already made it very clear to Vice Minister Liang not to come to me again. Everyone, please go back."
Bai Chuan's face showed obvious anxiety when he heard this. He felt that Bai Ningyu was still angry. In fact, Bai Ningyu was just using this as an excuse to simply not want to get involved in this matter.
Bai Chuan yelled at Liang Ying behind him, "Why don't you get over here and apologize to Director Bai? You're more of a hindrance than a helper. How could I have been so blind as to promote you to deputy director? If you miss something important today, you shouldn't even have to work in the special department!"
You know, it is such an honor to be able to work in a special department, and everyone in the family is proud of it.
This was also Liang Ying's capital for showing off. She had already lost her position as deputy minister and absolutely could not be kicked out again.
Hearing this, Liang Ying cursed Bai Ningyu a thousand times in her heart. What a damn little girl, why is she putting on so much airs? She should have stopped while she was ahead. She just wanted to embarrass herself on purpose!
When Liang Ying's resentful eyes met Bai Ningyu's, her heart trembled and a chill suddenly rose throughout her body. She felt that Bai Ningyu seemed to have seen through everything she was thinking.
