The Scion's Jack Of All Trades Wife 65 The Vortex Team 1

As the car stopped in the designated parking, Li Nuxie went out of the car. The sun has yet to set in the horizon but the weather already felt gloomy.

Li Chanying went out of the car after turning the engine off. The cousins strode towards the main entrance side by side.

"Welcome, Young Miss Li, Miss Li," the receptionist greeted them.

Li Chanying nodded with a polite smile on her lips.

"h.e.l.lo!" Li Nuxie greeted back. The Chang Condominium prided itself for its security. If Octagon Hotel was the best hotel in City S, the Chang Condominium was the best residential condominium in the city.

The condominium has two separate elevator lobbies. One for the celebrities and the other was reserved for private individuals like Li Nuxie.

The unit they were currently occupying was under the name of Li Chao and the permanent guest list include Li Nuxie, Li Chanying, and Hong Chi.

Occasionally, a tenant can bring outsiders provided they undergo necessary background check.

The lift that can carry 14 persons felt hollow for the two cousins. Li Chanying swallowed just to counter the defeaning silence.

Li Nuxie was leaning against the elevator wall, her eyes were glued at the screen displaying the floor number. When they reached the floor, the elevator door parted, revealing a deserted hallway.

Both cousins took a step out of the lift side by side. Their strides were decisive, heading towards Unit 1005.

Li Chanying swiped the key card against the censor before pulling the door open. She took a step inside followed by Li Nuxie.

Three pairs of eyes darted towards the door. The first was Hong Chi while the two others were total strangers. Except Li Nuxie knew them.

The corner of her lips rose as she occupied the single sofa. Her eyes were trained at the two people facing her.

"Huang Wensheng, Rezvani, long time no see."

The two people didn't expect that 'B' and the Young Miss Li was the same person.

Huang Wensheng caught his breath first. "Elder sister! I am so happy to see you again," he said, clasping his hands in front of his chest.

Rezvani just nodded towards Li Nuxie's direction. However, the angst towards her was not visible anymore.

As the five people settled down, Li Nuxie's voice rang inside the room. "I trust Hong Chi and my cousin has already briefed the two of you what to do."

"Yes. We were told that we are going to earn some money," Rezvani said, picking a gla.s.s of juice and drank from it.

Li Nuxie smiled tightly. "Not just some money. It's one billion dollars."

Rezvani choked on his juice, making him slapped his chest. He continued coughing while Li Nuxie just stared at him.

Huang Wensheng was just staring at the Elder Sister in front of him. He was not particular with money but he knew that it was a huge sum. No matter what, as long as he can impress Li Nuxie, all was good.

As Rezvani's cough faded into the background, Li Nuxie opened her mouth to speak.

"It was a large money. Hence, it requires a lot of stakes," she said, her eyes darted from Rezvani to Huang Wensheng. "In this case, you might give up your life."

Rezvani swallowed, his forehead was dotted with beads of sweat. Meanwhile, Huang Wensheng remained calm.

The atmosphere was tense.

"Are you in?" Li Chanying asked, disrupting the stillness inside the room.

Rezvani glanced at the teenager beside him. The truth was he needed money. But not to the extent of sacrificing his life. He lowered his head, biting his lower lip.

Huang Wensheng raised his hand. "I'm in," he exclaimed, eyes full of excitement.

Li Nuxie nodded. "How about you, Rezvani?"

Rezvani raised his head before shaking it. "I'm sorry, Young Miss Li. I needed money but there are ways I can earn it without putting my life on the line," he paused before continuing. "I haven't forgotten about our bet. I can be a traditional slave if you want but our bet didn't include my life."

Li Nuxie arched her eyebrow. Rezvani has a point. She nodded before turning her head to Hong Chi. "Please escort Rezvani outside the premises."

Hong Chi and Rezvani both stood up from their respective seats. Rezvani bowed his head. One billion dollars. Even one percent of it will make him a king. But what is a dead king?

When they reached the door, Li Nuxie's voice reached their ears. "You are not required to be my traditional slave anymore."

Rezvani turned his head a little harshly. "Excuse me?"

It was Li Chanying who responded to his question. "You are not binded with your bet anymore."

Rezvani's eyes went round as his eyes zoomed in towards Li Nuxie. "For real?"

"For real," Li Nuxie said with a smile on her face.

Rezvani bended his back, his hands were clasped in front of his chest. "Thank you," he uttered before going out of the door.

Li Nuxie turned to Huang Wensheng. "Why do you want to go?"

"Coz I want to go with you on a mission and learn from you," the teenager said, her eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with pride.

Li Chanying chuckled before glancing at Li Nuxie. "Should I put him now on his designated task?"

"Let's wait for Chi first before we welcome Huang Wensheng to the Vortex Team."

Li Chanying leaned on the seat, nodding.
