The Genius System Without Equal

Chapter 359: Trouble at the Parking Space

Gu Zhanguo and Dongfang Shuoyu immediately intervened to defuse the confrontation by separating the two, or to be exact, they separated Xiao Luo from Fu Yiren. They were not immune to her poison and wisely kept away from her.

“Mie, you and I are made for each other. Our fate is decided by the Heavens, and you will become my husband sooner or later.”

Fu Yiren pined, refusing to accept that Xiao Luo had declined her proposal. As he walked away, she was already lost in whimsical thoughts as she pictured them walking down the aisle in holy matrimony, and she beamed an innocent and blissful smile.

King Kong couldn’t help mocking her again, “What in the world is she doing? They were just fighting a moment ago, and all of a sudden, she’s wants him to marry her and tells him that he can’t decline. I will never understand women!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he shuddered. He raised his head slowly, only to see Fu Yiren’s glowering glare that made him feel that she was about to murder him.

…

…

At the entrance, Xiao Luo was about to leave the NSA when Gu Zhanguo showed him the vehicle that they had prepared for him—it was a brand new a Trumpchi GS8.

“Can’t you provide me with a better one?” Xiao Luo said, looking at a black SUV in front of him with a frown.

Gu Zhanguo coughed and replied, “Ahem, for your information, this car has a retail price of 160 thousand dollars, and it’s one of the best domestic cars available. It looks great, and its power and performance are both top-notch. The NSA has been on a tight budget of late, so you should be grateful that we can even get you such a decent vehicle.”

“Yes, just to get you a car, Old Gu and I had to eat dirt for one whole month,” Dongfang Shouyu added.

He couldn’t help thinking how these two directors resembled an old couple with the wife singing to her husband’s tune. In any case, he was already planning to buy himself a car, but as the NSA had now provided him one for free, he decided not to pursue the matter. Having a car as a means of travel was better than having none, and after all, the car’s aesthetics agreed with his personal taste.

“By the way, is Miss Ji alright?”

“Night sparrow is fine, don’t worry about her. She’ll get in touch with you after she is properly rested. By the way, I have a small mission for you,” Gu Zhanguo said.

“Small mission?” Xiao Luo responded, frowning somewhat.

“Yes, just a small mission.”

Gu Zhanguo nodded, then he sighed. “Xiahai’s economy has been improving rapidly over the last several years, but unfortunately, this has also caused many new problems to arise. Take MLM organizations as an example—they are flourishing in Xiahai like maggots feeding on a carcass,” he explained, “and while the police have raided many of their nests, the people arrested have all been low-level members. In fact, most of them were victims that had been brainwashed. The MLM’s mastermind and top managers have yet to be arrested so far. The chief of Xiahai City’s police department has already reached out to the NSA many times, and I think this is a suitable mission for you to look into.”

Xiao Luo remained silent. When MLM was mentioned, he immediately thought of his own cousin, Ding Zhenyun.

Dongfang Shouyu added, “The strategy employed by MLM operators is that downlines have to pay ‘tributes’ to their uplines. The more downlines there are, the higher the income the uplines will receive. These get-rich-quick schemes are classified as economic fraud and are not some trivial issues. If left to carry on, I wonder how many victims will turn against their own families and how many youths will waste their precious time and resources chasing a pipe dream. This is a big issue that is threatening our country and our people. It is about time we eradicate it.”

“I’m up for this mission, but I’m assuming that some of my methods would not be acceptable to the police,” Xiao Luo said.

“You don’t have to worry about that. The way the NSA operates is certainly different from the police. If necessary, you may resort to extreme methods, I leave it to your discretion. I’ll inform the police station about this before your mission,” Gu Zhanguo said.

“Alright!”

Xiao Luo was satisfied with the response he got. To successfully get the desired results in his mission, naturally, he couldn’t be restrained in employing methods that he judged would be the most effective.

…

…

It was already night when he arrived back at the Crescent Bay Hotel. Along the way, he had spotted a cotton candy stall by the roadside. He wasn’t sure if Su Xiaobei would like it, but he got her one all the same. Don’t all kids love this kind of snack?

His black Trumpchi GS8 had not been registered at the Crescent Bay Hotel yet, and he was denied entry. Xiao Luo had to contact Su Li, being the property owner, to authorize his access. Soon, her assistant, Luo Xiangping, came down to look into the matter. She told Xiao Luo that Su Li had been filming a commercial for a whole day and was exhausted. According to her, that was the reason why Su Li had asked her to come down.

“The five parking lots in the front row all belong to Su Li. She said that you can pick any of them for your car.”

Luo Pingxiang was sitting in the front passenger’s seat and pointing out the five parking bays in the underground parking area.

Xiao Luo nodded and proceeded to park his car in one of the bays.

“Mr. Xiao, have you just gotten this car today?” Luo Pingxiang asked as she touched the genuine leather seat.

“Yep, it’s easier for me to move around,” Xiao Luo answered.

Luo Pingxiang was very impressed by the new car’s appearance and gushed, “It’s quite comfortable to sit in, and there’s hardly any noise as well. From its appearance, it looks very high-end and elegant. You have great taste, Mr. Xiao.”

Xiao Luo smiled without continuing the conversation. He opened the door and got out of the car.

Suddenly, two intimidating-looking men, dressed in black, appeared at the entrance of the parking area and walked briskly toward them. The had nasty scowls on their faces, and their intentions were clear.

“Those are young master Yang’s bodyguards, but what are they doing here?”

Luo Xiangping noticed the men he moment she got off the car and identified them as Yang Hongzhi’s bodyguards at a single glance. Her hair stood on ends as fear crept over her.

“To find trouble with me, I guess.”

He caused Yang Hongzhi to lose face during the one-on-one basketball challenge by thoroughly thrashing him ten to zero. Shen Qingyan had warned Xiao Luo that Yang Hongzhi was a vindictive person, and Xiao Luo was not in the least surprised that he had sent his bodyguards to settle the score.

The two bodyguards stood ominously in front of Xiao Luo. Their tall and muscular physiques allowed them to look down at Xiao Luo in a condescending way. Then one of them said, “Mr. Xiao Luo, please come with us!”

Despite using the word “please,” there was absolutely no politeness in his tone—it was, rather, an instruction.

“I have a question, what will happen if I refuse to go with you?” Xiao Luo said.

The two guards looked at each other and laughed contemptuously. They glared at Xiao Luo like he was a fish on a cutting board waiting to be filleted.

“If you refuse to come, we will have to beat you up and drag you away,” the other bodyguard sneered as he cracked his knuckles.

“Just like dragging away a dead dog…” his partner chimed in, grinning.

“Don’t make any trouble, this is the Crescent Bay Hotel. If I shout, the security guards will come immediately!” Luo Xiangping yelled, and she was panicking.

“Miss Luo, you stay out of this. This lad over here has infuriated our young master, and he has to pay the price for his arrogance. Forget about the security guards, even the Jade Emperor can’t save him now.”

Ahsan growled at Luo Xiangping, then turned his gaze back to Xiao Luo. “Well, do you wish to follow us willingly, or should we…huh?!”

His voice ended abruptly because Xiao Luo suddenly delivered a powerful kick to his partner’s chest.

Ahsan only felt the wind brush against his face and heard a miserable shriek. His partner, Ahzee, flew right past him like he was hit by a heavy truck and crashed into the ground some five to six meters away. With a painful grunt, Ahsee threw up his dinner as blood streamed copiously from his nose.
