C21 – Bad Deeds

“I don’t believe it!”

Lachlan did not have any intention of running away. Instead, he found a comfortable place to sit down.

“I remember you said that you were with Claude.”

Gerald did not know what Lachlan meant, so he subconsciously nodded.

“Yes, what does this have to do with this?”

“Call Claude and ask him to come over,” Lachlan said indifferently.

What?

Both Gregory and Gerald frowned.

Lachlan was going to fight to the death with them.

Everyone knew that Claude was greedy. If he knew about the antique, how could the two brothers, Gerald and Lachlan, have any benefits?

But, was Lachlan not afraid of death?

If Claude came over, Lachlan would definitely not have a good ending. He might even die without a burial.

The two brothers discussed for a while.

Lachlan said, “Lachlan, don’t call him here. It won’t do anyone any good.”

“How about this, you take the Imperial Green Jade and leave, but leave the Along the River During the Qingming Festival.”

“Do you not understand what I said? I told you to call Claude and ask him to come over!”

“Lachlan, you…”

Gerald pulled Gregory and shook his head.

If Lachlan was so reckless as to ask Claude to come over, they definitely would not be able to hide this matter.

They had to tell Claude about this. Otherwise, even if Gerald obtained the antique, he would not be able to enjoy it.

Gerald took out his phone and found a secluded place to report to Claude.

“Lachlan, do you think you can get nothing from this? Let me tell you, we have made such a great contribution that we will definitely be promoted and get a raise. And you, you will be severely punished. You might die!”

Although Gregory threatened him, Lachlan kept a faint smile on his face. He was not afraid at all.

Half an hour later, Claude rushed over in a hurry.

He had never thought that he would be able to earn a fortune of over a hundred million just after being blackmailed by Lachlan for four million.

“Gerald, Gregory, you guys did well! Let me see where the antique is.”

Claude entered the house and laughed loudly.

“Of course! How could we not want you when you are so kind to us? We have always wanted to repay your kindness.”

Gerald said flatteringly.

“Good, good. If the antique is real, you two can go and manage the southern district and be the boss.”

“Thank you, Boss.” The two of them were incomparably grateful. They could make a lot of money in the southern district.

“Hurry up and let me take a look at the antiques,” Claude said.

“Boss, the antique is in Lachlan’s hands. We got someone to lock him up in the antique shop,” Gregory said as he pointed at Lachlan.

“Lachlan? What is Lachlan?”

Claude’s gaze shifted to Lachlan’s face.

“Master Yilmaz? F * ck, please forgive me.”

“Master Yilmaz, your presence in our store has really brought honor to our humble shop.”

“That’s enough, stop talking nonsense!”

Lachlan said impatiently, “Your subordinate has taken my antique. You have to give me an explanation.”

“Yes, yes!”

Claude broke out in cold sweat.

He never thought that Gregory and Gerald would provoke this fiend.

He was a martial artist, after all.

Not to mention the hundred people outside, even if they were to find another hundred people, it would still be useless.

Of course, he could still find more people, but if he were to organize such a large-scale illegal gathering, how could the country let him off?

Claude swallowed a mouthful of saliva and turned to look at Gregory and Gerald with eyes filled with killing intent.

“Damn it, I just spent four million to appease Lachlan, and now you two have provoked him again.”

The two of them were slapped until they felt dizzy.

“Men, beat them up! Kill them all!”

“Boss, what did we do wrong? Why are you treating us like this?”

“Boss, please forgive us!”

“Master Yilmaz is my guest. Not only did you detain him, you even wanted to take his antique. Shouldn’t you all die?”

The two brothers looked at each other in shock.

Lachlan was just an ordinary high school student. When did he get involved with an underground king like Claude? Furthermore, Claude seemed to be very respectful towards him.

They did not have time to think. The pain was so intense that they could not help but grit their teeth.

Not long after, the two of them were unconscious, covered in blood.

Claude wiped his sweat and said, “I wonder if you are satisfied?”

Claude said.

Lachlan glanced at him and said, “Go to the hospital and check your kidney.”

What did he mean?

Claude looked at Lachlan’s back as he left. He felt a chill in his heart.

Could it be that Lachlan could tell that he was sick?

All martial artists were experts. If he had warned them, it would definitely not be a lie.

Claude did not have the time to care about Gregory and Gerald’s life or death. He hurriedly went to the hospital.

“Mission completed. Reward: 5 points of the cognitive energy.”

After accepting the reward, Lachlan went to the milk tea shop to look for Fat Ballard.

“You drank three cups of milk tea. Aren’t you afraid of getting fat?”

Lachlan scratched his head. “One cup is not enough! Lachlan, did you buy this painting?”

“Yes.”

Even if Terry did not know how to paint, he was still shocked when he saw the Along the River During the Qingming Festival.

The phoenix on the painting was vivid and lifelike. It was obviously not a Common Grade.

“Lachlan, why didn’t you tell me that you found something good?”

Terry’s face was full of wrinkles. He pretended to be angry.

He was not really angry. He was just angry that Lachlan did not let him pay for the painting.

After all, he was the one who had invited Lachlan to the History Town. He had also promised to pay for Lachlan.

Lachlan was not rich to begin with, and he had to spend his money to buy antiques.

“How could I forget you? There is an antique shop in front of us. I found something good.”

Lachlan said indifferently, “I don’t know if you want it or not.”

“Something good?”

Terry’s eyes lit up. “How good is it?”

“It can be sold for a hundred times more.”

“Damn! Martin, are you feeling sore on your shoulder? Are you thirsty?”

Terry’s face was full of smiles as he helped Lachlan towel his shoulders.

After the two of them finished shopping, Terry said, “Martin, it’s still early. Why don’t we go for a walk?”

“Where are you going?” Lachlan did not have much to do.

He had read an entire night’s worth of antique books yesterday, so he wanted to take a break.

“How about we go to Ellsworth University? First, you can get familiar with the place. After all, you are a student. Second, Ellsworth University is famous for gathering beauties. Let’s go take a look at the beauties!”

Terry rubbed his hands together, looking extremely perverted.

Lachlan glared at him and said, “Boring, I’m not going!”

At this moment, Lachlan’s phone suddenly rang.

“Hello, are you Lachlan?”

“Who are you?”

The voice on the phone was gentle and pleasant. Lachlan did not remember that he knew such a nice girl.

“I am Lucille. Do you have time now? Let’s meet up.”

So it was her.

But why did her voice become so sweet?

Lachlan asked, “Are you in school?”

“Yes, I’m at Ellsworth University.”

“Alright, then I’ll go find you.” Lachlan said.
