Chapter 29 - Wu Hao's Trap

Wu Hao arrived at the Night Fire and Xu Shijin was already waiting there. When he saw Wu Hao approaching, he hurried over as if doing so could make Wu Hao move faster.

The contract is here. Xu Shijin directly handed the contract to Wu Hao.

Zhu Xiaoyi? Wu Hao glanced at the name of the trader and sneered disdainfully.

Wu Hao carefully studied the information of Xu Shijin, so he knew very well who Zhu Xiaoyi was. He was even willing to sacrifice his own fiancée for his own purposes. Xu Shijin was truly willing to sacrifice anything for his own goals. It's no wonder he caused that car accident back then in order to secure the position of general manager.

Is General Manager Xu sure about the deal? "Wu Hao asked coldly."

I bring the contract here, which means it's already finalized. "Xu Shijin affirmed."

"Okay." "

Wu Hao signed his name.

Master, the time is not easy to fail. "

Wu Hao heard Lila's voice in his head, and at the same time, the contract on the table changed. One of the two lines in the notes disappeared, leaving only one line that read, "Not enough time to complete the transaction." The number 50 years that was filled in the transaction time column also disappeared.

"Sorry, this person's life expectancy is less than fifty years, so the deal cannot be completed." Wu Hao pushed the contract back in front of him.

Xu Shijin's face at the moment looks very bad, with a mix of sadness, disappointment, and a sense of unwillingness to achieve the goal.

Can this contract still be used? "Xu Shijin asked."

Sure. "

Can I get a new contract? "

Sure. "

Wu Hao spread his hand over the contract, the filled-in information disappeared, and the vanished notes reappeared. A brand new contract appeared in front of him.

Xu Shijin was dumbfounded, but now he had nothing he couldn't accept, so he took the contract and left the bar.

Wu Hao sneered, leaned back on the sofa and fell into contemplation. The death experiment had begun in full swing, and it was time to make some preparations.

… …

When Xu Shijin returned home, Zhu Xiaoyi had already prepared lunch.

How did it go? "Zhu Xiaoyi asked, showing genuine concern."

Not done. "

Xu Shijin sat on the sofa and said helplessly, "I waited for him for half a day, and suddenly he told me he didn't like the number 50 and wanted to fill in 35. I had no choice but to come back." "

This person is really strange. "

It's not strange that people who can play this kind of game are strange. You come over and rewrite it. Xu Shijin took out the contract and placed it in front of her.

Let's write after dinner. "

You go ahead and write first. "

Zhu Xiaoyi glanced at him and could tell he was a bit anxious, but she didn't know why the man in front of her was anxious.

How can I write without a pen? "

Xu Shijin awkwardly took out a pen from her briefcase, feeling a bit nervous and unsure whenever facing her.

Zhu Xiaoyi re-signed a 35-year trade contract.

I won't have lunch, I'll be back soon. Xu Shijin took the contract and left.

Zhu Xiaoyi didn't call him, watching his departing figure, not sure whether to feel happy or sad, but she had already gotten used to eating alone at home, considering a table of dishes as an extra meal for herself.

… …

Xu Shijin came to Night Fire, where Wu Hao was sitting there eating takeout.

Wu Hao, take a look at this contract. Xu Shijin sat down and placed the contract in front of him.

Manager Xu is really hardworking. Wu Hao made a joke, didn't say much, and signed his name directly.

Congratulations, master! Your remaining time has increased by 35 years. Now you have plenty of time on your hands. "

Lia's voice rang out, indicating that the transaction was successfully completed.

Congratulations to General Manager Xu, the deal is done. "Wu Hao smiled."

Then I won't disturb you. Xu Shijin hurriedly got up and left. After all, the money was not on him. Even if it was his fiancée, he couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't play tricks on him because of this money.

Wu Hao wiped his mouth and leaned back on the sofa, watching Xu Shijin walk out of the bar.

He smirked evilly and picked up his phone to make a call.

Hello, is this Ms. Zhu Xiaoyi? "

Who are you? "

Did you just receive the money I transferred to you? But I don't think you know what this money really means, and you have no idea what Xu Shijin is up to. Do you want to know how he betrayed you? Queen Coffee on Jingang Road, I'm waiting for you, remember to bring the bank card you filled out. Wu Hao hung up the phone.

Hello? Hello?? "

Zhu Xiaoyi was puzzled by what she heard. She wanted to clarify the phone call but it had already been hung up. The phone screen returned to the text message page she was just browsing, which was a bank transfer notification, showing a deposit of 18.396 million.

Is the other party the one transferring money to themselves?

Close enough!

Zhu Xiaoyi carefully pondered the words of the other party. It was obvious that there was something wrong with this money. Calming down and thinking about it, she could understand that there would never be anyone foolish enough to give away so much money casually. Even if there were such a foolish person, they wouldn't have so much money.

The key is that this money seems to be related to what Xu Shijin has done now, and... …

What does it mean to sell oneself?

What does he mean by that?

Zhu Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, and then drove to Queen's Cafe on Jinguang Road as instructed, bringing along her bank card.

The coffee shop was crowded, with some people coming here to sit after lunch, while some women ordered pastries as their lunch. Wu Hao sat there conspicuously, but Zhu Xiaoyi did not know him. Instead, Wu Hao had seen her photo before.

Here. Wu Hao waved to her.

Zhu Xiaoyi stepped forward and couldn't help but pause for a moment, not expecting to see such a young boy.

Hello, may I ask if you are looking for me? "

It's me, have a seat. "Wu Hao smiled."

Zhu Xiaoyi sat down across from him.

What would you like to drink? I'm ready. "Wu Hao said.

No, thanks. I just want to know what's going on with this money. Zhu Xiaoyi took out the card from her wallet and placed it on the table.

Wu Hao took a sip of coffee, leaned back in his chair, and smiled at her.

Have you looked at what you've written? "

Seen it. "

Do you know what that contract means? "

This... Zhu Xiaoyi didn't know how to answer his question. From the beginning, she didn't take that contract seriously. The contract for trading time felt like a joke.

"Do you think this contract is just a boring joke?" Wu Hao reached out and placed the contract she had filled out on the table.

He said, "In fact, this contract is valid and effective. You exchanged 18.396 million in money over 35 years. Otherwise, who do you think would give you so much money for no reason just because of a useless piece of paper!?" "

Zhu Xiaoyi was dumbfounded, she had no idea what was going on.

Although it sounded unbelievable, she, with many doubts in her heart, instantly believed what Wu Hao said.

"You mean to say..." "

Yes, this money was earned with your own life. You gained this money, but lost 35 years of your life. "Wu Hao said directly."

Zhu Xiaoyi was stunned... …
