CHAPTER 191: WU HUN STORE

Bai Hanyun snapped out of her shock and replied, "It’s getting late. We need to find the kerosene seller before dawn."

Hua Yuyu thought for a moment, then said, "Let’s go to Level 3."

With their destination decided, Hua Yuyu led the others toward the Level 3 area with familiarity.

As she followed, Bai Hanyun looked around curiously.

Noticing a woman with many glass jars displayed on her stall, she craned her neck to take a closer look. The moment she saw what was inside, Bai Hanyun instantly regretted it.

Seeing Bai Hanyun staring at her goods, the stall owner asked, "Miss, the price is negotiable. Which one do you like?"

Being asked, Bai Hanyun quickly shook her head and replied in horror, "No, thank you."

After saying that, she hurriedly pushed Hua Yuyu and the others to walk faster.

Watching her back disappearing into the crowd, the stall owner chuckled and sighed. "After so many years, this is the first time someone thanked me for promoting my goods."

While talking to herself, the stall owner adjusted the position of the glass jars.

The stall owner smiled and muttered with a hint of regret in her voice, "It’s a pity that I can’t see her eyes. They must be very beautiful."

Under the dim yellow light of the street lamp, the eyeballs soaked in reddish liquid inside the glass jars glistened eerily.

Once she was far from the stall, Bai Hanyun patted her chest and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

Seeing her pale complexion, Hua Yuyu asked, "Miss Bai, are you alright?"

Bai Hanyun took a deep breath to calm herself and nodded. Swallowing hard, she said, "I never expected someone to sell eyeballs like pickled vegetables."

Hearing this, Bao Shengjie patted her shoulder and chuckled. "Miss Bai, there are a lot of weird and dangerous people in the black market, and you can find anything here. You will get used to it after coming a few more times."

When he said that, Bai Hanyun was speechless.

"..." Little Brother, did you hear what you just said? You still want me to come here a few more times?

Flicking Bao Shengjie’s forehead, Hua Yuyu said, "Stop teasing Miss Bai."

Rubbing his sore forehead, Bao Shengjie pouted. "Oh."

After the scary experience just now, Bai Hanyun didn’t dare to look around anymore and stayed close to Hua Yuyu.

They walked in silence for almost an hour before reaching the Level 3 area.

Stepping past the gate, Bai Hanyun realized that this area was cleaner than the previous one, and there were no street stalls crowding the roads.

Looking at the clean, wide road lined with stores on both sides, Bai Hanyun whispered, "Brother Hua, this place looks like a luxury shopping district. Can we buy kerosene here?"

Hua Yuyu nodded and replied, "Yes."

Without further explanation, he continued walking. Seeing this, Bai Hanyun hurried to catch up.

After walking for a while, Hua Yuyu stopped in front of a small store with black curtains covering the windows.

"It’s here," Hua Yuyu said as he looked at the store.

Bai Hanyun looked at the storefront and saw that there was no sign. Trusting Hua Yuyu, she followed him inside.

When he pushed open the glass door, the bell hanging above it chimed.

Kli~ ning~!

The pleasant sound broke the silence of the surroundings, sending chills down Bai Hanyun’s spine. Once inside, she was surprised to find the store brightly lit with luxurious decor and furniture.

Before Bai Hanyun could finish scanning the room, a woman in a sexy black qipao, with a black lace mask covering half her face, approached them with a smile.

"Welcome to Wu Hun Store. Customers, please come inside."

Bai Hanyun raised her brows slightly when she heard the store’s name and thought, ’What an unusual name for a store.’

Following the woman, Bai Hanyun and the others entered a lounge.

"Please have a seat. I will inform the manager about your visit." The woman smiled and then left the lounge.

Once the door closed behind her, Bai Hanyun looked around and noticed that the vases and paintings were antiques she had once seen at an auction she had visited together with her grandfather years ago.

Just as she was about to take a closer look at a vase from the Ming Dynasty, the door opened, and a masked man entered.

He scanned Hua Yuyu and the others, then he noticed Bai Hanyun, and his eyes flickered with surprise.

Gesturing for them to take a seat, the man sat on the single couch and said, "I wonder what wind brought you here today, Bloodhound."

Hearing this, Bai Hanyun raised her brows slightly and glanced between the man and Hua Yuyu. ’Is this Brother Hua’s code name when he was a special forces soldier?’

While Bai Hanyun looked at the two of them with interest, Hua Yuyu calmly said, "I want to buy kerosene. Do you have any?"

The man smiled at his words and replied, "Of course. We sell everything here. How much do you want?"

"Twenty thousand liters," Hua Yuyu replied.

Hearing the amount, the man nodded. "No problem. Two million."

After deciding to buy kerosene for Feng Xiyan, Bai Hanyun had already checked the market price.

When she heard the price from the masked man, she couldn’t help but think, ’Indeed, the price here is really expensive. It’s actually 91.9 yuan more expensive compared to the market price.’

While she was thinking, Hua Yuyu turned to her and asked in a low voice, "Do you agree with the price?"

It was Bai Hanyun’s first time in the black market, but she knew negotiating here wasn’t easy. Since she had money, she wouldn’t waste time haggling and risk failure.

Nodding to Hua Yuyu, she whispered, "Yes. But don’t let them deliver it to my warehouse. Have them send it somewhere else first. We will deliver it back later."

Hua Yuyu nodded. "Understood."

Watching them whispering to each other, the masked man raised a brow and said, "Bloodhound, this is the first time I have seen you bring a woman here. Is she your woman?"
