Chapter 255: Evil
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
“I acted strangely because Xiao Rou is just Tang Xi.” Qiao Liang said with a straight face.
Little Six looked at Qiao Liang speechlessly and shouted in his heart. “Young Master, I know it! You don’t have to remind me! I’m not interested in this bizarre matter! I don’t want to know that Miss Tang Xi’s soul occupied Miss Xiao Rou’s body and you were with her now! I really don’t want to know this at all!”
“Young Master, what do you mean?” Little Six inhaled and looked back at Qiao Liang, saying desperately, “Just tell me what you are going to do with me!”
Qiao Liang looked at the desperate Little Six and said expressionlessly, “You’ll be responsible for protecting Miss Xiao in the future. You know how much she means to me, so you should know if she was injured…”
“Young Master, you can rest assured. I’ll make sure Miss Xiao is safe and sound even at the expense of my life. What happened today will never happen again, so don’t worry about her! I’ll guard her twenty-four hours per day and never turn my eyes away from her!” Little Six yelled the oath, but then he found the atmosphere in the car was not right. The air in the car seemed to be frozen and was suffocating. Young Master who looked casual just now suddenly scowled at him…
Little Six touched his chest and almost burst into tears. He unfastened the seat belt and braked the car. He then turned around, held the seat with both hands and looked at Qiao Liang tearfully. “Young Master, did I say anything wrong?”
Qiao Liang looked at Little Six and asked darkly, “Guard her twenty-four hours per day and never turn your eyes away from her?”

Little Six groaned and cried out loud, “Young Master! I swear it’s just a metaphor! I just tried to assure you that I’ll accomplish the task you assigned to me! It’s not like what you think!”
“Okay.” As Qiao Liang’s face finally softened, the suffocating atmosphere was gone. Little Six was relieved and asked. “When shall I start to protect Miss Xiao, Young Master?”
“Not recently. Xiao Yao is still around and he will accompany her.” Qiao Liang closed his eyes, saying, “Send me to the police station. Xiao Yao will be in charge of the company temporarily. And Lu Li will come over in two or three days. Arrange accommodation for him in advance.”
…
In the reception room of the police station, on the projector’s screen, a man looked surprised. “You asked Little Six to arrange me accommodation? No, I want to live in your apartment!”
Qiao Liang kept looking at his computer without looking up and asked, “Have you found out who the FBI sent to Oman for investigation?”
“I’m talking about where I will live in City A, not about Oman. I won’t go to City A if I can’t live in your apartment. Make your choice.” Lu Li who was always cool and mature suddenly spoke arrogantly. He leaned against the chair, raised his chin and looked at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang finally took a look at Lu Li, and then lowered his head to read the files Lu Li transferred to him. “Is everything ready in Oman? Do I need to go there?”
“No. It doesn’t matter even if they discover something. Long Xiao did it, not Long Xiao Group. They can arrest the head of Long Xiao, but it has nothing to do with Long Xiao Group.” Lu Li shrugged nonchalantly. “They can do whatever they want, but I’m not afraid of them.”

Qiao Liang nodded and said, “Release the news before you come to City A and let some people know you will come to City A.”
Lu Li frowned. “Isn’t this confidential? Why do we have to let people know about this news?”
“You’ve never come to City A openly. Didn’t you say they were going to Oman? You come to City A blatantly when they think we will go to Oman to deal with that matter. Let’s see what the FBI agents will do.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Li smiled. At this time, his office’s door was pushed open. Qiao Liang saw Lin Yuan ‘s face appear on the screen. He leaned backward and Lin Yuan shook his head, “Ah Liang, you’re insidious. You leave an empty shell in Oman for the FBI and take the chance to prepare a trap over there for them.”
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and Lu Li smiled. “Ah Yuan arranged everything in Oman personally as you instructed. You can rest assured that nothing will go wrong.”
Lin Yuan sat beside Lu Li and his eyes had a wicked gleam. He smiled and raised his eyebrows. “I heard Dark Night intends to open a drug factory over there. Shall we give the FBI a big present?”
Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes, looked at Lin Yuan and asked in a low voice, “Dark Night? Blair?”
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows. “Yes, that Blair who contended with us for territory in North America but was defeated by us and had one hand blown up by you.” Lin Yuan said and suddenly thought of something. He raised his eyebrows. “Oh, by the way, I found that it was Blair’s men who ambushed Chu Ling in City A last time. What do you think? Shall we catch Blair and give him to Chu Ling to let him owe us one?”
Qiao Liang lowered his eyes and tapped rhythmically on the table with his fingers. After two seconds, he looked up at Lin Yuan and raised his eyebrows. “No, leak the news to Interpol but don’t tell it to the FBI. Disrupt their plan, lure them into the desert and make them stuck there for half a month or so.”
“Ah Liang, there are vipers in the desert. Do you want them to die in the desert?” Lin Yuan said, contrary to his words of concern, his eyes sparkled with excitement. After he said this, he hurriedly stood up as if fearing Qiao Liang would go back on his word. “I’m going to the command room. You have my word that I will let them spend at least half a month in the desert and enjoy the experience of almost dying of thirst. I’ll have people send them a bottle of 500ml mineral water every two days in case they will die of thirst. Haha, I’m too kind-hearted. I gotta go. See you.”
Lin Yuan left happily. Lu Li looked at Lin Yuan’s receding figure and then at Qiao Liang and shook his head. “Ah Liang, Oman’s desert is very dangerous and you still send Lin Yuan to give them a hard time? Do you really want to start a war with the FBI?”
Qiao Liang leaned backward and said nonchalantly, “As long as they dare to.”
