Chapter 8: Indulge in Buying

  "Although you may hate me now, and maybe after I leave you'll find someone to take revenge on me, but that's for later. Mu Xiao stood up and walked around the desk to stand beside Shangguan Yuxin, looking down at her from a high position: "But don't forget, right now in this room, I have the upper hand. Your life is in my hands, if you want revenge, then first get through this difficult situation... Miss Shangguan, I believe you understand what it means to know when to yield, this is also my final warning, I don't have time to play with you anymore."

  Shangguan Xing looked at Mu Xiao with a vigilant expression, but she still maintained her calm and composed demeanor, without any signs of panic. She believed in her own ability to handle the situation and also trusted that with the backing of two powerful families, she was not someone who could be easily shaken by an ordinary person or a single family, unless that person was a reckless lunatic.

  However, Mu Xiao's unconventional behavior and threatening words made Shangguan Yuxin feel that this man was a 'madman', and a cold-blooded one at that. Otherwise, what secret trump card did he have that he didn't care about the revenge of the two big families, daring to openly extort the heir of the Shangguan family, the future daughter-in-law of the An family?

  "I don't know where you got your confidence from, but I want to tell you that you will definitely pay the price for what you did today." Shangguan Xuanxian said coldly.

  She saw that Mu Xiao's face didn't change at all, his eyelids didn't even flicker, as if any threatening words were completely meaningless to him.

  Shangguan Xing understood that if things continued like this, the only one who would suffer losses would be herself. Even ten zi jin flowers were not worth her own life.

  Finally, Shangguan Wanxin coldly said out the correct account of the Purple Jasmine Flower.

  Mu Xiao opened the account name, and the huge number displayed on it made him very satisfied. He smiled complacently and said: "Thank you, Miss Shangguan, for your cooperation and generosity."

  "Don't mention it!" The delicate beauty of Shangguan Xing's face seemed to darken, "I hope that before we find you, you have the chance to spend all the money."

  "Don't worry, I'll be done soon." Mu Xiao's gaze was already on the screen, her fingers flying quickly as she casually replied.

  Shangguan Xinxin couldn't believe that Muxiao could use up such a large amount of credit points so quickly, but when her gaze unconsciously fell on Muxiao's light screen, she saw a string of dazzling purchase lists, all of which were extremely expensive medicines, and the huge credit point amount was rapidly decreasing at high speed. Suddenly, Shangguan Xinxin's beautiful face, which was originally soft and gentle, became completely ugly to the extreme.

  "What is this madman trying to do?!"

  Shangguan Wanxin was furious and bellowed in her heart.

  Various types of gene tonics, different years of Chinese medicinal materials, and nutrient solutions from various plants... Everyone knows that these things cannot be consumed and digested at once, nor are they some kind of magical elixir that can turn you into a "superman" by eating randomly. They only have the effect of saving lives, preserving lives, and nourishing lives. Most people use them as supplements to regulate their bodies, but no one would eat too many supplements at once, otherwise, it wouldn't be a supplement, but a poison.

  And the higher the quality of these "supplements", the more expensive they are, with some rare medicines costing hundreds of millions of credits per unit. For example, the genetic medicine needed for "regeneration" costs at least 200-300 million credits, but Mu Shao's list has over a dozen such genetic medicines, which would cost over 3 billion credits in one go.

  No matter how many credit points he has, it's still not enough for him to use.

  So, Shangguan Xing felt extremely depressed and indignant in her heart, thinking that Mu Xiao was simply trying to disgust her and fight with her, his true purpose was not for the money.

  Shangguan Xing's heart was difficult to calm down, and she coldly said: "I don't know why you're taking such a great risk to buy so many expensive medicines, but I can clearly tell you that after today, I also have a way to return all these medicines, which will not cause any loss to the Zijing Flower Group. I advise you, it's better to say out your purpose, otherwise, you won't have another chance to speak later."

  "Can you be quiet for a moment?" Mu Xiao didn't even glance at her, continuing to frantically shop on various online shopping platforms.

  His indifferent attitude made Shangguan Xing's blood boil, but she quickly calmed down because Mu Xiao seemed to be concentrating and hadn't noticed her. Her mind stirred slightly as her fingers quietly drew an invisible character. Once the character was drawn, she could activate all the alarm systems that had been shut off earlier.

  The ring on Shang Guan Wan Xin's finger was one of the miniature optical brains that could secretly activate the system.

  Just as she was about to succeed, Mu Xiao spoke in a tone like an adult scolding a child, filled with helpless sighs: "You're really troublesome."

  As soon as she was caught, Shangguan Xingyun felt a burst of light jump onto her body. In an instant, after a sharp pain, her whole body became numb and soft, unable to even lift a finger, completely losing the ability to move. Yet, her consciousness was extremely clear, and suddenly, a thought occurred to her mind.

  "Paralyzing gun! What do you want to do to me?!" The white and beautiful face of Shangguan Xing, as smooth as cream, turned pale, her heart racing with anxiety, truly feeling that something terrible might happen next, and she didn't even have the chance to struggle or kill herself, helplessly accepting the humiliation.

  "If you keep talking like that, I won't mind doing some of the things you're thinking about." Mu Xiao deliberately swept a glance over Shangguan Yuxin's soft and delicate, yet proud and elegant figure. She was like someone who had just been bitten by a venomous snake, her bright red lips tightly pursed, but her beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Mu Xiao, trying to use her gaze to deter his malicious intentions.

  Mu Xiao shifted his gaze back to the light screen, without showing any ill intentions towards Shangguan Xing. She was temporarily relieved, but she didn't dare speak again to provoke Mu Xiao, lest he had an excuse to lose control of his beastly nature.

  The spacious office was eerily quiet, and Shangguan Xing's mood became increasingly anxious and terrible. She had never been in such a disadvantageous situation before, and she didn't know what kind of trick Mu Xiao was playing. All she could do was hope that someone outside would come in soon...

  After a long time, Mu Xiao finally consumed the huge amount of money provided by Shang Guan Xuan Xin, directly purchasing a large quantity of expensive medicine and some supplies. He also paid a high price to have all the goods delivered to his residence within an hour.

  After all, in this prosperous city of magic, although there are many valuable items involved, there is still a certain ability to deliver them all. Moreover, with the current transportation technology, it has reached the point where goods can be transported over long distances, so the delivery time is not a problem, it's just that the price is relatively high.

  Shangguan Xing saw Mu Xiao disperse the light screen, and her heart immediately skipped a beat. She forced herself to calm down and said: "Now that your goal has been achieved, shouldn't you be leaving?"

  She seemed to have thought of something and said: "Don't worry, I won't make a move on you here."

  Mu Xiao Yu looked at the beautiful woman with interest, thinking to herself: "Just now I used an electromagnetic gun on her, a low-power output electric shock that only paralyzed her body. It seems her consciousness is still very clear, which makes things easier..."

  "Don't worry, I'm not interested in your body, and you're not my type either." Mu Xiao teased Shang Guan Xuan Yin with a sentence, seeing her extremely embarrassed expression, and then said: "But at critical moments, I don't mind compromising a bit, taking you..."

  "What exactly do you want to do! Spit it out!" Shangguan Xing's eyes were about to go crazy from being grasped by him.

  "I want the smart control rights of this room." Mu Xiao saw that she had compromised and stated her purpose, this time she didn't say much, directly telling her that the ring on her finger was a command device, and it could be used as long as the password was changed.

  Mù xiāo xiè xià tā de jiè zǐ, zài tā gào zhī de mì mǎ xià, hěn shùn lì gǎi le mì mǎ, rán hòu ná dào le zhěng gè fáng jiān de zhì néng kòng zhì quán, yǐ jí wài miàn zǒu láng de wǔ qì xì tǒng.

  He approached, Mu Xiao walked to the front of Shang Guan Xuan Xin, under her shocked and lost gaze, lowered his head and leaned in close, gradually Mu Xiao's face and her elegant and proud, delicate and tender skin, only an inch apart, while her body emitted a fragrant and intoxicating scent, clearly swirling around Mu Xiao's nose.

  "Listen carefully to every word I say."

  Mù Xiāo spoke with warm, moist breath that wafted towards Shàng Guān Xīn's delicate face. Her eyes flashed with a girl-like shyness, but more prominent were the urgent unease and resentful glares. She didn't say anything like "You dare touch me, I'll make you wish you were dead" or other such pale, powerless threats.

  She was silent, using those eyes that could freeze everything to stare at Mu Shao, as if engraving his appearance into her bones.

  "I know that right now, no matter what I say, you won't believe me. But I'm a person who distinguishes between gratitude and resentment, and I don't like owing people favors without repaying them. So, I'm making a promise to you here: if you can survive and we meet again, you can ask me for one thing that's within my power to grant, as repayment for the huge sum of money you're lending me this time."

  Mu Xiao stood up straight, looking at Shangguan Wanxin who was gradually calming down, and continued to say: "I just ordered a large amount of food and some things you might need in your name, and arranged for them to be delivered to the ninth warehouse of the company. If something happens, that place might be a safe place, so that you can survive, and I won't take away the two S-level robots in your room either. You also have a team of bodyguards, so you should be able to get through this 'unforgettable day'."

  Shangguan Xinyi's mind was filled with doubts, and her heart surged with an endless sense of fear, as if some unknown and terrifying event was about to occur, but she also hoped that Mu Xiao was just pretending to be mysterious, distracting herself from his revenge...

  "What exactly did you say?" Shangguan Xingyun took a deep breath, regained her composure and asked: "If our family is in great trouble and you've learned some news, I can pretend that today's events never happened. I can even agree to any reasonable request of yours..."

  Mu Xiao didn't listen to her words and said to himself: "Next, I hope you cooperate with me to finish the last play, call your bodyguard in."

  "I'm talking to you, can't you give me an explanation?" The feeling of annoyance in Shangguan Xing's heart grew stronger, and her tone returned to its usual sternness.

  "Right. Now that the room's defenses are under my control, there's no need for you to do anything else." Mu Xiao's face broke into a warm smile, speaking in a tone as if coaxing a child, "You go get some rest and recover your spirits to welcome the arrival of this great era."

  "Wait..." Just as Shangguan Wanxin had a bad premonition, she saw that Mu Xiao's hand was holding an additional object with a gun-like shape. A flashing electric light landed on her body, causing an even more intense stinging pain than before. In an instant, she lost consciousness.
