Chapter: 2906
Hong Wu quickly handed a key to Charlie Wade and said, “Master Ye, if you have any questions, just let me know.”
“Okay,” Charlie Wade replied with a nod. He shook the car key and added, “I’m leaving now.”
He got into the taxi, started the engine, and drove toward Buckingham Palace.
When Charlie Wade arrived at Buckingham Palace, Mai Chengxing stepped out of the hotel lobby. He spotted Charlie Wade in the taxi and waved.
Charlie Wade pulled up beside him, rolled down the window, and asked, “Are you taking a taxi?”
“Yes!” Mai Chengxing replied. “I’m heading to Phoenix Mountain Cemetery.”
“Phoenix Mountain?” Charlie Wade feigned shock. “Why would you go there at this time? I can’t go; that’s too creepy.”
Mai Chengxing quickly responded, “Brother, I really need to go to Phoenix Mountain. If you’re worried, I can pay you more.”
Charlie Wade raised an eyebrow and asked, “More money? How much?”
Mai Chengxing pulled out ten hundred-yuan bills and handed them to Charlie Wade. “One thousand yuan. What do you think?”
Charlie Wade pretended to be impressed by the money. “Alright, get in the car!”
Mai Chengxing opened the door and climbed in.
Charlie Wade started driving, heading toward Phoenix Mountain. On the way, Mai Chengxing looked nervous and asked, “Master Ye, do you think Xuan Fengnian will follow us?”
Charlie Wade replied casually, “Whether he follows or not, we still need to go through with our plan.”
“Make sure you have everything ready. Otherwise, if anything gets revealed, the other party will vanish without a trace,” Charlie Wade said.
Mai Chengxing nodded and asked, “Once I arrive, will I go in alone, or do you have other plans?”
Charlie replied, “Just get out of the car and wait for Xuan Fengnian to contact you.”
Mai Chengxing looked nervous. “What will you do after I get out? Will you follow me secretly, or just wait outside?”
Charlie reassured him, “Don’t worry. I’ll join you openly when the time is right.”
Mai Chengxing was concerned. “Won’t that make Xuan Fengnian suspicious?”
Charlie assured him, “No, he will definitely find a way to let me in when the time comes.”
Mai Chengxing was surprised. “How can you be so sure?”
Charlie smirked. “Xuan Fengnian cares a lot about that special Gu worm he has. He wants to feed it, so he won’t want to lose a potential food source. If he lets me go, he risks exposure. It’s safer for him to deal with me too.”
Mai Chengxing hesitated. “But what if he just wants to handle the situation with me and doesn’t want any extra trouble? If you don’t drive away, he might become suspicious.”
Charlie waved his hand confidently. “Trust me, Xuan Fengnian wouldn’t want to let me go!”
