Chapter 169 The life I saved, I can also take back!

Luo Zixi was willing to help this time, partly because she had some connections with Lao Bai, but more importantly because Lao Bai was willing to offer a very high reward.

Because she knew that her most powerful trump card right now was her spatial ability.

Although we had already robbed the Sun family's mansion last time, which emptied their base and brought them a lot of benefits, our space also evolved as a result.

However, Luo Zixi naturally hoped that her space could be stronger.

As long as there are treasures, gold and silver, jade, gemstones, and precious stones, the space can continuously evolve, and its various functions will be enhanced accordingly.

So, she needs money, and she needs all sorts of treasures!

Old Bai seems to have a unique advantage in this regard.

This guy must have inherited the wealth of the Bai family in Northeast China.

After all, the cellar in the Bai family's old house was originally very large, and could be regarded as a large warehouse, but it had long been empty. Apart from some shelves that could be regarded as treasures and antiques, there was nothing else.

Of course, there were also the letters hidden in the safe, which revealed some of the Bai family's secrets to Luo Zixi.

It might come in very useful in the future.

However, it seems useless now.

However, the treasure troves that Lao Bai knew about would be of great use to Luo Zixi.

Moreover, Old White seems to care nothing about money and treasures.

He gave it away without hesitation to save his brother's life.

Now, in order to complete the mission and save the life of the Li family patriarch, an even higher reward is offered without hesitation!

Luo Zixi admired this quite a bit.

After all, some people are willing to sell their wives and children for profit or for so-called treasures; they only care about money and not people.

But Old Bai is clearly not that kind of person.

Indeed, Bai Jingyan believed that human life was more precious than anything else; as long as people were alive, everything else could come back later.

He values ​​the people in front of him and those around him, and he repays kindness to anyone who has been kind to him.

It must be said that, in a sense, Bai Jingyan is quite a pure person.

Such people may sometimes seem a bit silly.

Just like this time, when Bai Jingyan asked Luo Zixi to come out of seclusion to save Elder Li and the others, all he really needed to do was introduce Luo Zixi to the Li family.

If the Li family is willing to believe and give it a try, they will naturally find a way to ask Luo Zixi to treat her.

However, Bai Jingyan did not do that; instead, he generously paid the consultation fee himself.

Because Lao Bai knew very well that it was absurd to make the Li family believe in such a young girl.

But Lao Bai knew better than anyone that Luo Zixi possessed unfathomable medical skills.

So he acted first and informed her later, inviting Luo Zixi over without ever mentioning the price he would have to pay.

Moreover, he couldn't explain it. He had given so much; how could he explain the origin of these treasures?

Since that's the case, there's no need to say more.

If the Li family knew how to be grateful, they wouldn't need to say a word; others would reward them handsomely.

If the other party is ungrateful, no amount of talking will help.

So the current situation is pretty good.

Bai Jingyan got the result he wanted; he could finally be by Luo Zixi's side...

Luo Zixi may not yet realize that Bai Jingyan paid such a high price just so he could stay by her side.

He holds a military position, making it too difficult for him to do anything of his own; he is often powerless to control his own destiny.

But now, he is relatively free.

Therefore, even though he paid a heavy price, he felt it was all worth it.

All those gold, silver, and other treasures were just fleeting clouds to him.

Having enough money is fine; the most important thing is being able to stay with the people you love.

At this time, Bai Jingyan did not come alone; there was another person with him.

He was a bespectacled, seemingly refined young man, but somehow he looked more like a scumbag:

"Hey, Lao Bai, I knew it! Why couldn't you just stay in Beijing? Why did you insist on coming to the Northeast?"

"I used to think you had a group of brothers you couldn't let go of, but it turns out you couldn't let go of someone else entirely?"

After finishing his sentence, the bespectacled young man nudged Bai Jingyan with his elbow in a cheeky manner.

Old Bai glared at him irritably, signaling him to shut up if he couldn't speak properly, but the guy just yelled even louder:

"Hey! Why are you looking at me like that? Did I hit a nerve? Are you getting angry? Let me tell you, you're the one who asked me to do this for you, so you'd better treat me well, or else, hehe, you'd better watch out!"

"Hey girl, hello there! My name is Li Jiaming. Does my surname sound familiar? That's right, I'm also from that Li family that you seem to find so annoying!"

"However, I'm here to help you deal with your troubles. Have a few annoying guys been showing up lately? I'm here to take them away, but whether I can take them all depends on Old White's performance!"

Okay, Luo Zixi hasn't even said a word yet, and this guy is already getting a little unbearable; he's just too talkative...

"Li Jiaming, right? Don't worry about Lao Bai's performance, just watch mine! If you don't take those annoying guys away, I'll beat you until you do!"

At that moment, Luo Zixi chopped a piece of wood next to her with a chop.

With a crisp "crack," the wood was cleaved into several pieces...

The sight made Li Jiaming gasp in shock.
