Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Shen Qianshu’s gaze was cold. Since she already had no way to stop Jonah, she could only quickly change the topic to Ye Ling.

“Noah is also interested in Ye Ling?”

“Of course!”

Just as the words landed, a woman walked into the auction hall. She wore a long black dress, and a black veil hat was perched on top of her head, covering her features. It could vaguely be seen that she was delicate and slim, had a long and lean body, and carried a piercing cold aura. She was followed closely by a few men. They were big and powerful, and all of them dressed in black and wore sunglasses, giving off an imposing aura. On her veil hat, there was a black rose clipped on.

“Black Rose!”

“It’s Black Rose! Why is she here? Is she also enemies with Ye Ling?”

“Why is the mysterious Black Rose also here?”

“Who is Black Rose?” a tycoon asked.

“Black Rose is Europe’s top hitman organization’s leader. The organization will carry out any tasks that can earn them money. However, they are really mysterious and secretive in their each and every movement. No one has ever seen Black Rose’s true features before. Rumors say that she is a very scary woman. Those that meet her will never be able to survive to the next day. Do you know Fang Hongxiu, the hitman under her? The world famous woman twenty odd years ago assassinated Country R’s president and king. She’s known as the Female Devil in South East Asia. Now, Black Rose is even more mysterious and skillful.”

Shen Qianshu looked towards the woman in the veil hat. She was seated at the last row, and the few big, burly men were standing beside her, protecting her fully. No weapons were allowed in the auction hall, and if a fight were to be started, it would depend on whose skill was better.

Many people were cautious about taking action. Those that were enemies with each other were standing quite far away from each other. Apparently, Black Rose was considered to have strengthened her hatred with everybody.

Jack’s gaze immediately hardened. “Misjudgment!”

“What’s wrong?”

“There are not enough men!” Jack exclaimed.

He had long received the news that a huge group of underworld men were gathering in Johannesburg. As an intelligence officer, he wanted the terrorists to be wiped out all at once. However, he did not greet the Embassy beforehand and did not work together with the local police. He came in with no preparations at all. Now that there were so many people that came, including Black Rose, it would not be that easy to wipe them out all at once. They were most likely going to counterattack.

With Black Rose’s arrival, the whole auction hall was in silence. All the whisperings were long gone.

Shen Qianshu heard Jack’s words, and her heart sank.

“What’s going to happen to Ye Ling?”

“We will bid for him.” Little Tong Hua voiced out.

“In terms of wealth, no one here will lose to you.” Jack replied.

Jack was certainly saying the truth. Zhong Ran only gave Shen Qianshu a card. The money on this card was more than enough to buy the diamond. However, the money needed to buy Ye Ling was out of the ballpark. To these people, Ye Ling’s life was worth… an incredible price!

Many were willing to go bankrupt for Ye Ling’s life.

“Who exactly is he?” Shen Qianshu asked softly. Wasn’t her Master just a big tycoon? Even if he had some men under him and did some illegal businesses, he should not be someone who was widely hated.

How did he offend the whole underworld?!

Jack was silent for a moment. “You can ask him that personally.”

Jonah was also feeling a little apprehensive. After, he did not invite Black Rose. Countless people were fearful of her. Perhaps, besides Ye Ling, she was the most hated target in the hall.

This plan seemed to be getting out of hand.

A drop of sweat dripped down Jonah’s forehead. He only had one thought in his mind, which was to quickly throw Ye Ling, this hot potato, away!
