"Mr. Lu, you're really humorous, but you're right, there is indeed a special charm about Chinese men that draws women's attention."

Hearing Lu Tianxing's words, Li Ya giggled and softly said, "Mr. Lu, I wonder if you have some free time in the coming days. How about you and Zhiqing come over to my place as guests?"

Lu Tianxing shook his head and declined, "Miss Li Ya, you're too kind, but there's no need for that! Zhiqing and I are in New York to attend a jewelry exhibition. You know Zhiqing's nature, calling her a workaholic wouldn't be too much, so she might not have much time for gatherings. If Miss Li Ya doesn't mind, you can come to Modu in the future, and I'll be your guide and show you around the great landscapes of China."

Hearing Lu Tianxing's words, a flicker of sadness crossed Li Ya's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said with a light smile, "Mr. Lu, it's a deal then. When I have the time to visit China, you must be my guide. Don't go back on your word."

"A man's word is as good as his bond, but Miss Li Ya, are you prepared to pay the guide fee? You know Chinese men dote on their wives, and I hand over my paycheck to mine. I'm very poor right now."

"Haha, no problem at all. As long as Mr. Lu makes me happy, I'll definitely give you a big red envelope."

"Then I thank Miss Li Ya in advance."

Lu Tianxing and Li Ya were chatting and laughing, and since the incident with Johnson happened, no one dared to cause trouble for Lu Tianxing anymore. The entire venue atmosphere was particularly harmonious.

As time passed second by second, at eleven o'clock in the evening, the banquet finally ended, and everyone bid farewell to Li Ya and left the place.

After Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing said their goodbyes, they didn't linger any longer. Hand in hand, they left Li Ya's mansion empty-handed, but on the way back, Lu Tianxing had a stack of business cards in his hand, all of which were given to him by others upon leaving.

Lu Tianxing didn't reject these people's goodwill. It's well said that having more friends means having more paths. If Bai's Group wants to enter the international market in the future, they must establish good relations with these people.

As Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing were leaving the party, Li Ya stood at the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the villa, her gaze wistfully watching Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing getting into a car, lost in thought.

"Miss, the master just called."

Just then, Li Ya's room door was suddenly knocked on, and a woman dressed as a maid entered from outside.

"Daddy called?"

Li Ya was slightly stunned, "Is there something going on?"

"The master said you should keep your distance from that man, or it might bring disaster to the Louis family," the maid recited the words from the phone conversation.

"Disaster? Did Daddy say any reason?"

"He did."

The maid gently nodded, "The master said that man has an alias called 'Judge'."

"The Judge!"

Li Ya's body trembled, a look of disbelief appeared on her delicate face, and she was unaware even when the glass slipped from her hand to the floor, her beautiful eyes staring intently in the direction Lu Tianxing had left.

The Judge, a fearsome name in the Western Underworld, once renowned and feared by all. How could Bai Zhiqing's husband be the Judge, the man who once terrified the Western Underworld?

Unaware of the happening after they left, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing returned directly to the Bikeman Hotel after leaving Li Ya's mansion.

Just as they walked into the hotel lobby, Lu Tianxing spotted Little Bee in a white suit sitting on a sofa in the lobby flirting with a hotel waitress. A black line appeared across Lu Tianxing's face; this guy never fails to cause trouble all day long.

"Boss, you're back."

Little Bee also saw Lu Tianxing at this moment, said a word to the hotel waitress beside him, and, under her resentful gaze, stood up and walked towards Lu Tianxing briskly.

"Honey, go to the room first. I need to talk with Little Bee," Lu Tianxing said to Bai Zhiqing beside him.

"Alright, I'm going up first."

Bai Zhiqing gently nodded, without saying anything, turned around, and headed upstairs.

Lu Tianxing watched Bai Zhiqing enter the elevator, fetched a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, exhaled a puff of smoke, glanced at the resentful hotel waitress not far away, and said, "Little Bee, it seems I came back at a bad time, did I interrupt you? Do you want me to step out for a bit, give you a minute?"

"Get lost."

Little Bee rolled his eyes and said; "A minute, Boss, are you looking down on me? When Little Bee takes action, it's definitely not less than an hour. If it wasn't bad timing today, I would've shown this Western chick what Chinese men are made of."

"Really?"

Lu Tianxing smirked and said to Little Bee, "Alright, let's talk business. Little Bee, didn't I ask you to investigate which forces are targeting me? Why are you here at the Bikeman Hotel again?"

"I heard you had a conflict with the Nokevi family, so I came especially to help," Little Bee said, looking at Lu Tianxing. "Boss, the Nokevi family is one of the underground giants in New York, with considerable influence here. Since you crippled the Nokevi family clan leader's son, I'm worried they'll come after you. Besides, if we clash with them at this critical moment, it won't do us any good. Do you want me to gather a few brothers tonight, strike first and finish them off?"

Saying this, a bloodthirsty glint flashed in Little Bee's eyes. The Netherworld Mercenary Corps does not kill the innocent, but those who dare to go against them will be eliminated mercilessly.

"No need, the Nokevi family doesn't dare to act recklessly, just ignore them. This time our main focus is on other forces, not just a small underground influence."

"Alright then, Boss, you'd better be cautious these days. I haven't found much useful information yet, but I can feel that the air in New York has become oppressive. The Western bastards have always been wary of China. Now that you're in New York, they certainly won't let you return to China alive," Little Bee said with a serious face.

"If they won't let me go back, then I'll turn New York upside-down, make it run with rivers of blood,"

Lu Tianxing said, a hint of cold killing intent flashing on his face. "Little Bee, have our people arrived in New York yet?"

"Lao Liu and the others have already set off; they'll arrive in New York by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Boss, do you want them to come find you?"

Hearing Little Bee's words, Lu Tianxing was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "No need for Lao Liu to look for me, have them hide in New York. This time, let's not just play small; let's play big, cripple them completely and make them understand what true pain is... "

Before finishing his words, a ferocious killing intent flashed across Lu Tianxing's face. This time, he didn't mind going on a killing spree.
