Chapter 4129 Transaction
“What’s wrong? Why are you alone?” Du Fan stepped forward and asked. Leng Shuang stopped and said: “Feifei is missing. Master asked me to come back to tell you to go and inquire about the forces in the city and see if there anyone would capture Feifei.”
....
Upon hearing this, Du Fan frowned and said: “What do you mean by missing? Wasn’t she with you both?”
“I accompanied her to go and buy some wine, and at that time…” Leng Shuang told him what had happened. After listening to her account of what had happened, Du Fan pondered for a moment, then said: “I see, come with me! We will go to see Master later.” After he said that, he walked back into the inn and called the waiter over. “Young Master, what can I do for you?” The waiter was still very happy after receiving the gold coin from him earlier. When he saw him calling him over, he was attentive at once. Du Fan took out two gold coins and placed them on the table, then said: “I want to find out some news from you. If I am satisfied, these two gold coins will be yours.”
The waiter’s eyes lit up when he heard this and he asked hurriedly: “What would Young Master like to know?” It went without saying that waiters at inns were all well-informed about information from all parties. There was nothing they didn’t know. Du Fan and Leng Shuang looked at each other, the fan in his hand opened with a swish, and he asked slowly: “I want to know, how many forces are there in this city. Which group is the largest? What are their main businesses? And, have you heard of any beautiful women pa.s.sing through this city who have gone missing?”
On this side, while they were inquiring about information, Ye Feifei, who had been knocked unconscious, had woken up. However, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the sack in front of her and felt that she was being carried by someone. She could faintly hear some voices and she was momentarily stunned.
Has she been kidnapped? She remembered that she had gone to buy wine, and suddenly, someone had grabbed her from behind and covered her mouth and nose with a cloth. All she knew was that she had fainted the next moment, and when she woke up, she was already inside the sack being carried. What was going on? Why had they kidnapped her? They had just arrived here and hadn’t provoked anyone, nor did they have any enemies, so why were they targeted?
As she was thinking about this, she heard a voice. “What a pity! If the woman in black looked like she was not someone to be provoked, I would have captured her as well. If these two women were auctioned at the Underground Black Market, we would surely make a lot of money.”
“You still want to capture the woman in black? If I hadn’t sent someone to b.u.mp into her I don’t think we would have caught this woman.” She heard another voice speak. Not long after, she heard the sound of a door opening. “Why are you here again?” The man who had opened the door looked at the sack on their shoulders and sneered, asking: “What have you brought this time?”
“Hehe, Master Cao, we have brought another little beauty. We just got her, she is definitely of fine quality, and she is from out of town too.”
“Fine, fine, come in! We have to inspect the quality of the goods before we decide whether to accept her or not.” The man waved his hand and told them to go inside. In the sack, Ye Feifei stared. She had been kidnapped to be sold? She was angry, her eyes rolled and she couldn’t help but think to herself. So, she adjusted her breathing and gradually calmed herself down and continued to pretend to be unconscious. When they got inside, the man carrying her put her down and opened the sack and said: “I’ve drugged her, she won’t wake up for a while. Master Cao, take a look, she is of fine quality this time.”
