Chapter 616: Am I really that arrogant?
All of my anticipation for the arrival of "Blood Blossom" was completely gone!
As the door opened, Jiang Nan quickly poked his head out to look!
He saw a tall, slender woman walk into the room, wearing a deep red cheongsam-style evening gown.
She had on black stockings that went past her knees and red high heels.
Her figure was curvy and exquisite, very graceful, with her beautiful back exposed.
A black leather choker was tied around her fair neck.
Her short, red hair, which barely reached her ears, looked very capable, but her face was covered by a white mask engraved with a pattern of a Blood Blossom.
Only a pair of eyes was visible, as crimson as rubies!
Her level was not hidden; she was only at Diamond Eight.
Jiang Nan grinned wickedly. My little gold vault is mine now!
As soon as Gu Xiaowei saw Blood Blossom enter, she quickly stood up and said excitedly, "Boss! I've brought all the goods!"
Blood Blossom nodded slightly: "Mm! Come over and sit down!"
As she spoke, she walked over to the dining table and sat down.
Gu Xiaowei quickly pushed her backpack over to Blood Blossom: "Boss! The goods are all here, 230 sticks in total!"
Blood Blossom nodded, looking somewhat excited: "Did Nan Shen not notice anything?"
Gu Xiaowei shook her head: "No, everything was normal. It's just that the money you gave me wasn't all spent..."
Blood Blossom: "If this wasn't such a large demand, I wouldn't have taken such a big risk buying so much at once. Jiang Nan is very sharp; don't underestimate him!"
Gu Xiaowei scratched her head: "Even if he found out, what's the big deal? We're a huge organization, are we really afraid of him?"
Blood Blossom's gaze turned cold: "Have you forgotten everything I taught you? Never be blindly confident!"
"Is the Pansy powerful? More powerful than the United States? More powerful than Area 53? Don't provoke Jiang Nan! Never!"
Gu Xiaowei said weakly, "Don't be angry, Boss. Xiaowei knows she was wrong!"
Jiang Nan couldn't help but roll his eyes. Am I really that terrifying?
I'm very kind and amiable, you know?
Blood Blossom nodded, finished checking the Vitality Ginseng, and then noticed ten boxes of Durian Pulp in the backpack, looking puzzled.
"What are these?"
Gu Xiaowei said excitedly, "These are the deodorizing midnight snacks that Nan Shen bought! He said eating one can get rid of the stench on your body!"
Blood Blossom was stunned: "Really?"
"Mm-hmm. Nan Shen used the durian to make all his classmates stink, then sold them these deodorizing snacks to eat. Over four hundred people queued up late at night to buy them, and after one bite, they weren't smelly anymore. I saw it with my own eyes!"
Blood Blossom: ...
Is Jiang Nan really this inhuman?
[From Yao Hong's Resentment Value +1!]
But then she became excited again: "Many high-ranking officials from the underground organizations that participated in the Metropolis battle internationally have also been made to stink, and the smell on them hasn't gone away!"
"They're all trying various methods to deodorize, but none work. Some have even offered high bounties!"
"Especially the Elder Council of the Sakura Group and the Jingming Sect's high-ranking officials; their offers are even higher. If this thing can really deodorize, then our Pansy can make a huge profit again!"
"This way, we can finally catch a break, Xiaowei. You've done a great service!"
Hearing this, Jiang Nan became instantly interested.
Damn! How could I have forgotten about that?
The people from the Metropolis are also stinky, right?
Why didn't I think of selling them deodorizing snacks to shake them down?
This Yao Hong is a real little money-maker!
Jiang Nan, who was just considering whether to burst out immediately and cause trouble, decided to wait a bit longer!
Wait? The Sakura Group's Elder Council and the Jingming Sect are also stinky?
They didn't even go to the Metropolis!
Gu Xiaowei said happily, "I'm glad I can help the boss. Then I'll go back to tailing Nan Shen. He might set up his stall again anytime!"
Just then, a hint of conflict appeared in Yao Hong's eyes: "Wait, Xiaowei! There might be something I need your help with tonight!"
Gu Xiaowei was stunned: "What is it, boss? Just say the word!"
Yao Hong gritted her teeth: "You might die. Are you still willing to do it?"
Gu Xiaowei's expression darkened, and without a moment's hesitation, she said, "Boss! You gave me my life. As long as I can do it!"
Jiang Nan squinted his eyes. So there really is something happening tonight. Otherwise, why would a simple rendezvous be so elaborate?
Yao Hong took a deep breath: "I want you to become Jiang Nan!"
Gu Xiaowei: (๐•́口•̀) Huh???
Jiang Nan: (๐•̌.•̑๐)ˀ̣ˀ̣
Become me?
I'm right here, you know!
What do you take me, Jiang Tianxian, for, pulling this kind of stunt?
Gu Xiaowei said, "You want me to turn into Jiang Nan? South God is so famous, it's not easy to impersonate him!"
Yao Hong's eyes were solemn: "There's a chance!"
"According to my intel, Nan Shen and his group have already left Rongcheng and just arrived at Kyoto Ling University for teaching guidance. They've just come out of the Sword Mountain Lingxu!"
"The videos are all over the internet; everyone knows. So it's perfectly reasonable for Nan Shen to appear in Kyoto. It won't arouse suspicion!"
Obviously, Yao Hong had already thought this through in advance and was well-prepared!
Gu Xiaowei asked, puzzled, "Why do we have to pretend to be Nan Shen?"
Yao Hong sighed, "We have a meeting with the Blood Alliance soon, and I can't control the situation. In the underground world, if you don't have strength, you'll be eaten down to the bone!"
Gu Xiaowei was shocked: "Didn't we spend a fortune to hire that Star Glory expert? Even you can't handle the situation? And Nan Shen is only Gold rank. He..."
Yao Hong sneered contemptuously, "That's just a good-for-nothing vampire. Do you really think he'll go all out for our Pansy?"
"If I can't control the situation, Jiang Nan definitely can!"
"I really couldn't think of any other way..."
At this moment, Yao Hong's eyes were full of exhaustion.
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes again. I just came here to stake out a spot to make some easy money!
How did I run into this kind of thing?
Use my identity to cause trouble? Have you asked for my opinion?
The Blood Alliance? I think I had some contact with them when I nuked Suka!
Looks like Pansy isn't as glamorous as it seems on the surface.
Now, Jiang Nan was quite curious about what Yao Hong planned to do using his identity.
Maybe one little gold vault could turn into two!
Ah, that would be wonderful!
Without another word, Gu Xiaowei started changing her clothes, leaving both Yao Hong and Jiang Nan dumbfounded!
Yao Hong was stunned: "Xiaowei? What are you..."
Gu Xiaowei's face was full of determination: "I'll do it!"
"You can refuse. I can handle the Blood Alliance side..."
Gu Xiaowei looked into Yao Hong's eyes: "I want to help you, boss. I want to help the organization!"
Yao Hong let out a long sigh, but ultimately nodded.
With that, colorful scale armor appeared all over Gu Xiaowei's body. Her figure and appearance gradually transformed into Jiang Nan's. Her face flushed red as she turned around in front of Yao Hong.
"Do... do I look like him?"
Jiang Nan watched grim-faced as another version of himself twirled in front of Yao Hong. This felt so weird!
Yao Hong was full of amazement: "Incredibly similar!"
After completing the transformation, Gu Xiaowei changed into a custom-tailored high-end suit, instantly giving off a sunny, handsome vibe.
Her level had also changed to the same Gold Five as Jiang Nan!
Yao Hong said, "The appearance is perfect. Now it's just the demeanor. You have to learn Jiang Nan's mannerisms!"
Gu Xiaowei gulped: "What kind of demeanor?"
Without a second thought, Yao Hong said, "Arrogance! Smile for me!"
Jiang Nan: ???
Gu Xiaowei: (๐•ᴗ•๐) Like this?
"No! Too obedient. Sharpen your gaze a bit!"
Gu Xiaowei: (｡･᷅ㅂ･᷄｡) Like this?
"No! More arrogant! Lift your head slightly, curl the corner of your mouth!"
"Give off that 'Go ahead, try and hit me!' kind of vibe!"
Gu Xiaowei: (๐¯͒ٹ¯͒) Ah? Little kid! I heard you're not convinced?
Yao Hong's eyes lit up brightly: "Yes! That's the kind of arrogance!"
Jiang Nan: (･᷄ὢ･᷅)?
Am I really that arrogant?
Don't talk nonsense, you know!
I'll sue you for defamation!
My normal expression isn't nearly this asking-for-a-beating! Looking at Gu Xiaowei's current expression, even I want to go over there and smash her head in!
Yao Hong: "Xiaowei! Take a deep breath and say the most arrogant thing you can think of!"
Gu Xiaowei: ୧(ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)☞ I'm not targeting anyone in particular. I'm saying that all of you, every single one of you, are trash!
"Eat shit!"
Yao Hong nodded, looking gratified: "You've successfully grasped the essence!"
Jiang Nan: (•́ω•̀٥)
Huh? Is this how I usually am?
If you go out like that, you're going to get beaten up, I'm not lying to you! Don't learn this stuff!
