Chapter 175 Threatening Pei Shan

"Have you contacted that old guy?"

"Okay, hurry up and determine the exchange location."

Pei Shan hung up the phone expressionlessly, then leaned back in her chair.

At this time, the temperature outside has reached 37 degrees Celsius, but it is cool and pleasant inside.

Pei Shan was wearing a sexy camisole and tight shorts, and was sitting comfortably on the sofa with her legs crossed.

She leisurely enjoyed the coolness brought by the air conditioner, as if she was in an isolated summer resort.

Pei Shan's slippers were thrown casually aside, one shoe fell on the east side and the other fell on the west side, making her look particularly lazy.

He seems to be indifferent to everything around him and is only focused on his own comfort and pleasure.

There was a knock on the door, but Pei Shan remained unmoved.

"Talk about something!"

There was a hint of impatience in her voice.

Jiang Huaiqiu outside the door is a person who is as powerful and powerful as Liu Zhanghua. He is one of the two tigers beside Pei Shan.

Liu Zhanghua's nickname is the descending mountain tiger, while Jiang Huaiqiu is called the ascending mountain tiger.

Jiang Huaiqiu stood at the door and said respectfully, "Miss, a guest is here."

However, Pei Shan in the room responded disapprovingly: "Just send them away for now, just give them some food or water."

Hearing this, Jiang Huaiqiu showed a bitter smile on his face. He knew the eldest lady's temper and also knew that this uninvited guest might bring some trouble.

But he still gritted his teeth and continued, “Miss, the person who came this time is not a native, but a person from my hometown.”

Pei Shan was slightly startled when she heard this.

A feeling of confusion welled up in her heart, a mixture of curiosity and vigilance.

Hometown, that was the place she was once familiar with, but also the place she had to escape from.

Now, someone actually came here from there, which made her fall into deep thought.

"Bring the man to the front hall!"

"I'll be there in a minute!"

After hearing these two sentences, Jiang Huaiqiu turned and left.

Pei Shan began to put on a brand new camouflage uniform, her movements quick and skillful, as if she was already accustomed to this kind of outfit.

More than ten minutes later, Pei Shan came to the front hall.

There were already a dozen men in the house, also wearing camouflage uniforms. They were holding advanced submachine guns and were equipped with other sophisticated equipment.

These people are a group of mercenaries that Pei Shan recently recruited.

The brothers Wu Fuhe and Wu Fuhai sat on the right, while Liu Zhanghua and Jiang Huaiqiu sat on the left.

The big chair in the front was naturally reserved for Pei Shan. After she sat down, she looked at the visitor in front of her with sharp eyes.

The visitor had white hair and a long beard, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

He smiled and said to Pei Shan: "Miss Pei, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

Pei Shan paused for a moment, as if trying to recall something. After a while, she slowly said, "Mr. Ma Xuan, it has been seven years since we last met in China."

"Considering your advanced age, I should have thought you were long dead."

Ma Xuan smiled and said, "I have been recuperating in China for seven years. My old bones are still very strong!"

Pei Shan did not continue the small talk, but got straight to the point, staring at Ma Xuan and asked, "How did you find me?"

"Or what is your intention this time?"

Ma Xuan replied: "I do have something to ask you."

"About a man named Gu Yannian."

Pei Shan never expected that it was because of Gu Yannian, and she couldn't help feeling very surprised.

"Oh?"

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's going on? Tell me about it."

"The man named Gu Yannian hired someone to kill my boss's son," Ma Xuan said expressionlessly.

"After the failure, he fled to Xuan Country. Everyone witnessed what happened afterwards."

"So I came here this time hoping to exchange some money for Gu Yannian."

Ma Xuan finally stated his purpose.

"My boss said that he won't feel at ease until Gu Yannian is removed."

After Ma Xuan finished speaking, he looked straight at Pei Shan, wanting to know what choice she would make.

Agree? Or refuse? It doesn't matter to Ma Xuan. What matters is to complete the task.

When Pei Shan heard Ma Xuan mention Gu Yannian, she realized that she had forgotten that this man was still a fugitive.

But this is not important to her, because the purpose of exchanging with Pei Kun is just for money.

As long as Ma Xuan can offer a price that satisfies her, she is willing to exchange with him.

So Pei Shan asked, "Mr. Ma Xuan, I really want to know what price you will give me?"

There was a hint of expectation in her voice, but also a hint of indifference, as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

Ma Xuan looked at Pei Shan, with a barely perceptible cunning glimmer in his eyes.

He took in every expression and movement of Pei Shan, as if looking for a breakthrough in her.

Finally, he slowly said, "One million dollars."

Pei Shan couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing this. Her voice was clear and pleasant, but it was also a bit sarcastic.

She raised her chin slightly and looked at Ma Xuan with a faint smile on her lips.

"Mr. Ma Xuan, the price you offer is really too low."

She said softly, her tone revealing an unquestionable firmness.

"There are other people who want Gu Yannian, and they offer a price of three hundred million."

Ma Xuan frowned and thought to himself.

He was not aware of the transaction between Pei Shan and Pei Kun, let alone the complex relationship involved.

He only knew that his mission was to bring Gu Yannian back, but the beautiful and intelligent woman in front of him did not seem willing to compromise easily.

"Miss Pei, I don't know who you want to make a deal with, but it doesn't matter."

Ma Xuan's eyes became sharp and he stared at Pei Shan closely.

"The important thing is that the person must be handed over to me."

Liu Zhanghua on the side could no longer suppress his inner anger. He stood up suddenly and glared at Ma Xuan.

His voice was filled with anger as he said, "Old man, I want to know where you get such confidence from?"

"Why should I hand him over to you?"

Ma Xuan met Liu Zhanghua's cold gaze without fear, with a disdainful smile on his face.

His voice was low and firm: "My boss had nothing better to do, so he donated 100 million to King Angkui as military expenses."

"There are three thousand soldiers ten miles away waiting for news from me. If I can't get him, the consequences will be something you can't bear."

These words exploded in the room like thunder, plunging everyone into silence.

Ma Xuan's words revealed a powerful strength and confidence that could not be ignored.

The room was silent for a long time. Pei Shan looked up at Ma Xuan and asked, "Are you threatening me?"
