Chen Feifeng dared not tell him the truth, “No, it’s just that my eyes need protection. Have them prepare those things.”
Upon hearing this, Black Snake slapped his forehead, “Oh, dear, it’s all my fault, I forgot about that. Don’t worry, starting today, I’ll have my men prepare things good for your eyes. If you need anything else, just tell them.”
Chen Feifeng nodded coldly.
Black Snake looked at his eyes. These were his prized possessions, the ones that made him rich. He wished that he could snatch them away. Black Snake had this thought, but he feared that if he dug them out of Chen Feifeng’s body, they would become ineffective, which would be disastrous.
“Rest well.” Black Snake patted his shoulder and left his room.
Stepping outside, he ordered the guards at the door, “Report any movement he makes to me immediately. Take good care of him. If anything happens to him, you will be held responsible.”
“Yes, Sir.”
A week later, Chen Feifeng was horrified to find his vision becoming increasingly blurry, which filled him with panic.
Black Snake wanted to take him out, but he could only feign illness.
Once or twice, Black Snake could tolerate it, but how could he allow it to happen repeatedly?
In his eyes, he was nothing more than a prisoner, a tool for acquiring wealth.
A tool daring to act arrogantly toward him—wasn’t that courting death?
A group of men pushed open the door to Chen Feifeng’s room and coldly ordered, “The boss wants you to accompany him to buy jade.”
“I’m not feeling well. Let’s do it another day.” Chen Feifeng said.
The leader sneered twice, then waved his hand. Two henchmen stepped forward, one on each side, and dragged him away.
Chen Feifeng was shocked: “What are you doing?! Let me go! I’m telling you, if you treat me like this, I’ll tell the boss, and you’ll be in big trouble!”
The men ignored his shouts and simply put him in the car.
Chen Feifeng looked at the place they were heading to; it was a place he knew best. Before getting out of the car, they forcibly put a mask on Chen Feifeng, placed him in a wheelchair, and had someone push him forward.
Black Snake walked up to Chen Feifeng.
“Xiao Chen, we’ve unearthed quite a few old mine jade stones today. Take a good look at them.”
“Brother Black Snake, I’m not feeling well today. Let’s do it another day.” Chen Feifeng said.
The smile on Black Snake’s face vanished, replaced by a cold, menacing look: “Xiao Chen, what were you saying just now?”
Chen Feifeng trembled under his icy gaze and could only grit his teeth and reply, “Nothing, I said I’ll handle it.”
Black Snake patted his shoulder: “That’s right.”
After saying that, he turned to the people following Chen Feifeng and said, “Take good care of Xiao Chen. If anything happens to him, I’ll hold you responsible.”
Chen Feifeng was pushed into the jade market. Many people turned their heads when they saw Chen Feifeng wearing a silver mask, simply because of his great reputation in Thailand and Myanmar. Any jade he set his sights on would invariably increase in value. This ability was the envy of all jade merchants.
Many people wanted to hire him as an expert, but no one could persuade him to leave.
“Sigh, in the country, perhaps only Chen Feifeng and this masked man can compare.” A jade merchant from Country H remarked with a sigh.
“Indeed. It’s a pity Chen Feifeng can’t be found. We don’t know where he went.”
“I heard he’s temporarily gone into seclusion to avoid suspicion. I reckon he’ll come out again soon.”
