God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

Chapter 114: Hidden Love: Fighting the Undercurrent

In the corner of the warehouse, a shabby wooden box was half-closed, covered with dust and inconspicuous.

Chu Feng walked over quickly and opened the lid of the box, which was filled with rags and straw.

Very good!

Outside the warehouse, Pan Yue paced back and forth anxiously.

He looked at the warehouse door from time to time, his palms full of sweat.

He knew that Chu Feng's trip was dangerous. Auctioneer Zhao was not a good person, and there were even more powerful forces behind him who were eyeing him covetously.

"I hope Fengzi can be alright..." Pan Yue prayed in a low voice, looking anxiously at the few men in black approaching from a distance. Their eyes were as sharp as hawks, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary thugs.

Inside the warehouse, Chu Feng rolled the information into thin strips, stuffed them deep into a wooden box, and then covered it with rags and straw.

After doing all this, he breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Just then, the warehouse door creaked open.

Auctioneer Zhao walked in with a hint of sneer, "Chu Feng, I've been waiting for you for a long time." He was followed by two burly men, blocking the only exit of the warehouse.

"Boss Zhao, what a coincidence." Chu Feng smiled as if he was relaxed, but he was quickly thinking about the escape route in his mind.

The warehouse was closed on all sides and the only exit was blocked, making the situation extremely unfavorable for him.

Auctioneer Zhao paced back and forth, circling around Chu Feng like a cat playing with a mouse. "Stop pretending, I know what you are hiding. If you know what's good for you, hand it over and I can consider leaving you with an intact body." The two burly men behind him laughed grimly, as if echoing their master's words.

"Boss Zhao, you're joking. I'm not hiding anything." Chu Feng tried to remain calm, but his eyes involuntarily glanced at the wooden box.

Auctioneer Zhao followed Chu Feng's gaze, his sneer growing even wider. "It seems you won't cry until you see the coffin." He waved his hand, "Search for me!"

Chu Feng's heart sank to the bottom.

Just then, there was a commotion in the auction hall, as if something unexpected had happened.

Auctioneer Zhao's attention was drawn to it and his brows furrowed slightly.

"what happened?"

Chu Feng seized the opportunity and suddenly rushed towards Auctioneer Zhao... Chu Feng rushed forward suddenly, seemingly in a panic, but in fact he accurately bumped into a wealthy businessman with gorgeous clothes and a beer belly.

The wealthy businessman was holding a glass full of champagne and was knocked off balance. The wine spilled out and soaked his expensive suit.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" the rich businessman roared, his fat face turned the color of liver.

The people around him looked sideways and whispered to each other. The atmosphere group immediately started to flatter the powerful and praise the weak. "This is the chairman of the Wang Group. You are so bold!"

Chu Feng apologized hastily, but in the chaos, his hands rolled the information into thin strips at lightning speed and stuffed it into the folds of the rich businessman's wet suit.

His movements were so stealthy that even Auctioneer Zhao and his two men, who were nearby, were distracted by the sudden chaos and didn't notice at all.

Auctioneer Zhao waved his hand impatiently, "It's just a small matter, Mr. Wang, don't delay the important matter." His cold eyes locked onto Chu Feng again, "Boy, you'd better not play tricks!"

Chu Feng lowered his head and pretended to be submissive, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Mr. Wang continued to complain, while the people around him were in awe of him, which further highlighted the immense power of Auctioneer Zhao.

At this moment, Chu Feng felt a familiar fragrance behind him. Lin Xiao appeared near him again without him knowing when. She looked at him with a smile and a meaningful look in her eyes.

Chu Feng's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He clearly saw that Lin Xiao's eyes moved back and forth between him and Director Wang, whom he had just bumped into, and finally stopped at the wet corner of his clothes.

Lin Xiao opened her red lips slightly and said in a voice that only Chu Feng could hear: "It seems that your ability to hide things is really... superb." There was a hint of playfulness in her tone, as well as a subtle... warning.

Chu Feng felt a chill on his back. He was like a prey being targeted, with all his muscles tensed, ready to respond to Lin Xiao's next move at any time.

Lin Xiao stretched out her slender fingers and gently touched the hair that fell beside her ear...

Chu Feng felt that all the blood in his body had frozen.

Lin Xiao discovered it!

How much does she know?

Will you expose him?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He was like a vigilant cheetah, with his muscles tensed, ready to respond to Lin Xiao's next move at any time.

However, Lin Xiao just gave him a meaningful smile, then turned and left.

Her smile made Chu Feng even more uneasy, like a sword hanging over his head, and he didn't know when it would fall.

He didn't know what she was up to. Was she playing hard to get, or did she have other plans?

The information is still with Mr. Wang, and he must retrieve it as soon as possible, but Lin Xiao's appearance undoubtedly increases the difficulty of this matter.

Auctioneer Zhao was still watching closely from a distance. His sinister eyes swept over Chu Feng from time to time, as if warning him not to act rashly.

The people around him began to disperse gradually, and Chu Feng knew that he had to act as soon as possible.

He took a deep breath, tried to stay calm, then pretended nothing had happened and slowly approached Director Wang.

Mr. Wang was still complaining about his soiled suit, and the people around him were in awe of him and kept apologizing.

This gave Chu Feng a great opportunity.

He pretended to accidentally bump into someone next to Director Wang, and then took the opportunity to get close to Director Wang again.

He held his breath and carefully reached out his hand, trying to take out the information from the corner of Director Wang's clothes.

However, just as his fingers were about to touch the information, Director Wang suddenly turned around and looked at him with an unhappy expression.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you always bump into me?" Director Wang's voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of the people around him.

Chu Feng's heart sank suddenly, he knew he was exposed.

He quickly took a step back and pretended to be flustered, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

At this moment, a voice came from the crowd, "Mr. Wang, your suit..."

Chu Feng looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lin Xiao standing outside the crowd, his eyes fixed on him and Director Wang, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.

She slowly raised her hand and pointed at the corner of Director Wang's clothes...
