1378 Umaakto hanggang sa maging manhid

Kaibigan noon?

Since they were allies, it would probably be inappropriate if she didn't see them…

Pangit naman siguro kung hindi niya kikitain ang mga ito lalo na't mga kaibigan niya ang mga ito...

Helpless, Ye Wanwan was forced to return to the Fearless Alliance with Liuying first.

Walang nagawa si Ye Wan Wan kundi pwersadong bumalik si Ye Wan Wan sa Fearless Alliance habang kasama niya si Liu Ying.

Outside the conference room, Big Dipper looked at Ye Wanwan and said, "Sis Feng, Trance's here…"

Sa labas ng conference room, tiningnan ni Big Dipper si Ye Wan Wan at sinabi, "Sis Feng, nandito na si Trance…"

"Trance…" Ye Wanwan was dumbfounded. This was the supposed leader of a faction allied with the Fearless Alliance…?

"Trance…" nagulat si Ye Wan Wan. Ito ang lider ng isang paksyon na konektado sa Fearless Alliance…?

Although Ye Wanwan heard about Trance from Big Dipper before, she didn't recognize this person at all, so how should she act in this scene?

Kahit na nakilala ni Ye Wan Wan si Trance dahil kay Big Dipper noon, hindi niya namukhaan ang taong ito kaya paano siya aakto sa kanya?

She was nearly acting to the point of numbness…

Umaakto lamang siya hanggang sa puntong wala na siyang maramdaman...

"Third Elder and Seven Star are receiving him right now… Sis Feng, go in quickly!" Big Dipper said.

"Kasama niya ngayon si Third Elder at Seven Star… Sis Feng, bilisan mo at pumunta ka na doon!" Sabi ni Big Dipper.

Ye Wanwan nodded. Can I not enter…

Tumango si Ye Wan Wan. Pwede ba na hindi ako pumasok...

Ye Wanwan had no choice but to enter.

Walang nagawa si Ye Wan Wan kundi pumasok.

Inside the conference room, a Western man in a white suit was sitting in a chair.

Sa loob ng conference room, nakaupo sa upuan ang isang Western na lalaki na may puting suit. 

Trance had a thin figure and a fair and clear face, but his sapphire eyes contained a cruel and vicious feeling.

Mapayat at malinis ang mukha ni Trance ngunit may nakakatakot at mabagsik na tanaw sa kanyang sapphire na mga mata.

"Miss Bai Feng, long time no see, but you're still beautiful." Trance stood up and greeted her with a gentlemanly smile.

"Miss Bai Feng, matagal na kitang hindi nakita pero maganda ka pa rin." Tumayo at ngumiti si Trance at binati siya nito.

Ye Wanwan's eyes turned as she greeted him: "Trance, long time no see."

Nag-iba ang tingin sa mga mata ni Ye Wan Wan nang batiin niya ang mga ito. "Trance, long time no see."

Third Elder Li Si's gaze didn't shift from Ye Wanwan for the slightest second.

Nakatitig si Third Elder kay Ye Wan Wan.

From start to finish, Li Si never believed Ye Wanwan was the genuine Bai Feng, so he had a chance to test her today.

Simula pa lamang noong una, hindi na naniniwala si Li Si na si Ye Wan Wan ang tunay na Bai Feng, kaya ito ang pagkakataon para subukan ang babae.

Ye Wanwan walked up and lightly embraced Trance.

Lumapit si Ye Wan Wan at niyakap niya si Trance.

Although Ye Wanwan wasn't familiar with Trance at all, the two of them did act like old friends who had been estranged for many years.

Kahit na hindi pamilyar si Ye Wan Wan kay Trance, umakto sila na parang malapit na kaibigan ng matagal na panahon.

Based on Trance's attitude, she didn't discover anything amiss.

Wala naman siyang napansin na mali sa ugali ni Trance.

"President Bai, let's talk business. I sought you out for two reasons… First, I've disliked the Yan family for a while and wanted to eliminate them. I heard that the Yan family offended you recently, so that's perfect. We'll each take a portion and get rid of the Yan family together," Trance said with a smile.

"Presidente Bai, mag-usap tayo ng seryoso. Pumunta ako dito para hanapin ka sa dalawang rason… una, matagal ko nang kinamumuhian ang Yan family at gusto ko na silang tapusin. Nabalitaan ko na binastos ka raw ng Yan family kaya magandang pagkakataon ito para sa akin. Ihahati natin ang yaman nila sa ating dalawa at magkasama nating tatapusin ang Yan family," nakangiti si Trance nang sabihin niya ito.

Ye Wanwan sighed helplessly. She didn't want to provoke the Yan family or work with Trance… but that wouldn't fit with Bro Flattop's style.

Nagbuntong hininga si Ye Wan Wan. Ayaw niyang galitin ang Yan family at ayaw niya rin makipagtrabaho kay Trance… ngunit hindi ito babagay sa style ng pamumuhay ni Bro Flattop.

"As for the Yan family's territory, we'll follow our old practice and split it half-half. How about it?" Trance continued.

"Para naman sa teritoryo ng Yan family, gagawin natin ang kinagawian natin at hahatiin natin ito para sa ating dalawa. Ano sa tingin mo?" Dagdag ni Trance.

"Half-half?" Ye Wanwan pondered over it for a moment and the smile disappeared from her face. "Trance, I never do half-half with people."

"Hati tayo?" Napa-isip si Ye Wan Wan at bigla siyang ngumiti. "Trance, hindi ako nalikipaghatian sa mga tao."

She remembered that in a conversation with Big Dipper, Big Dipper mentioned that when the Fearless Alliance cooperated with other factions, the Fearless Alliance never received less than 60% in the division of benefits, so dividing things half-half? Bullsh*t.

Natandana niya noong nag-uusap sila ni Big Dipper, nabanggit nito sa kanya na may mga kaakibat na ibang paksyon ang Fearless Alliance, hindi nakakakuha ng mas mababa pa sa 60% ang Fearless Alliance sa benepisyo ng dibisyon, kaya ka-g*guhan ang kalahating benepisyo na makukuha nila.

"Trance, since you aren't sincere, there's no need to continue our discussion." Ye Wanwan sneered.

"Trance, dahil hindi ka seryoso sa diskusyon natin, wala nang rason upang ipagpatuloy pa natin ito." Ngumisi si Ye Wan Wan.

Third Elder secretly sneered while Seven Star's face was icy; it was so dark that ink could drop from it.

Pasikretong ngumisi si Third Elder habang si Seven Star naman ay walang pakiramdam, parang gabi ang mukha ni Seven Star sa sobrang dilim ng itsura nito.

Ye Wanwan had been observing Third Elder and Seven Star from the start, so her heart skipped a beat when she saw their expressions. She felt something was amiss about this…

Inoobserbahan ni Ye Wan Wan si Third Elder at Seven Star simula pa lamang noong una, kaya kinabahan siya nang makita niya ang kanilang mga mukha. Naramdaman niya na parang may mali dito…

"Haha, President, I'm just joking with you. I'll take 40 and you'll take 60. Don't be so serious," Trance said.

"Haha, Presidente, niloloko lang kita. Kukunin ko ang 40% at ikaw ang kukuha ng 60%. Huwag ka masyadong seryoso," sabi ni Trance.

Ye Wanwan's expression eased minutely when she heard that.

Naging kalmado si Ye Wan Wan nang marinig niya iyon.

"The second thing is: Asura resurged from the dead and wants all the factions in our territory to offer tributes to him on time every month… I'm very dissatisfied by that. It's money I earned, so why should I give them a portion? President Bai… I don't think you'll pay this tribute, right?" Trance asked.

"Pangalawa: nabuhay mula sa hukay ang Asura at gusto nilang magbayad ng buwis kada buwan ang lahat ng mga paksyon na nasa teritoryo nila… hindi ako natutuwa doon. Pinaghirapan na pera ko iyon, kaya bakit ko sila bibigyan ng pera? Presidente Bai… sa tingin ko ay hindi mo ito babayaran, tama?" Tanong ni Trance.
