Chapter 169: Sending You a Big Opportunity!

In the streets of Mong Kok, Li Xian walked briskly towards his hotel, rubbing his sore neck. Behind him, the little scammer with deep shoe prints on her face followed like a persistent fly, constantly shouting for her money back.

"Enough!"

Li Xian turned around and shouted loudly, which startled the scammer. She shrank back slightly but quickly puffed out her chest again. "Are you kidding me? You, the scammer, are getting all fierce? Pay up!"

Seeing her small, puffed-up chest, Li Xian sneered. "Why should I return the money that I earned through my skills?"

"Wow!" The little scammer was stunned, then she pointed her finger at Li Xian's nose. "So you admit to scamming me!"

Li Xian curled his lips and swatted the finger away. "So what if I admit it? Go report me to the police. Or... shall we go back to Shanghai Street and find your friends to settle this?"

"You!"

The little scammer, feeling helpless, was enraged to the point of tears as she saw Li Xian acting like a rogue.

Eventually, after Li Xian turned away, she plopped down on the ground and grabbed his pant leg.

"No morals! That was my grandfather's emergency money you scammed! He's still at the clinic, sobbing..."

Her crying drew the attention of passersby, and many citizens gathered around. Li Xian shook his pants leg, feeling as if he couldn't shake off the stubborn grip. He crossed his arms and said, "Keep acting. No one here knows me, so I'm not afraid. But you, I suggest you be careful with your surroundings while crying, and be ready to flee."

Upon hearing this, the little scammer, who had her eyes closed and was squeezing out tears, hesitated. She squinted her eyes and peeked up.

At that moment, a man and a woman came through the crowd. Seeing that it was indeed Li Xian speaking and noticing the girl sitting on the ground grabbing his pants, the man scratched his head.

"Wow, Xianzi, you're impressive... In just two days in Hong Kong, you've gotten this girl into such a mess?"

Meanwhile, Li Jie, upon recognizing the girl on the ground, covered her mouth lightly and said, "Brother, if Dad finds out about this, he'll beat you up when you get home!"

Seeing these two teammates providing reverse support, Li Xian covered his face.

Oh, dear!

...

Li Xian didn't really care about the three thousand or so dollars. He was simply irritated that someone mistook him for an easy target and wanted to teach a lesson.

After all, as a self-assured young man with decent looks and capabilities, being seen as an easy mark on the street was quite infuriating!

At the corner, after explaining to Xu Maoh and Li Jie that the "pitiful" girl was the scammer from yesterday, Xu Maoh and Li Jie were stunned.

"My God, girl, you look decent enough. Isn't there something better you could do than being a scammer?" Xu Maoh teased, looking at the girl with slightly faded shoe prints on her face. "Why don't you come with me to the mainland? I promise you'll live well and enjoy good food. How about it?"

Seeing Xu Maoh's smirk, the little scammer snorted, "You're out of your mind."

"Hey, you little brat!" Xu Maoh was about to hit her but was stopped by Li Jie.

"Alright, brother, let's avoid trouble while we're out. Just give her the money and get on with our business."

Li Xian nodded. The company matters were sorted out, and it was time to return. He had originally planned to buy a boat ticket today, but with the little scammer's commotion, it was already evening, and leaving today seemed unlikely.

After another look at the scammer, he waved and took out a stack of cash from his bag, counted out four thousand, and handed it to her. "Look, let's be clear. The three thousand five hundred you gave me yesterday included five hundred for the watch. So you said I owe you four thousand five, but it's actually four thousand."

He placed the money in her palm. "Now we're even. All grudges are settled, alright?"

"Yes, yes!" The little scammer was thrilled to get her money back. After counting it once more, she quickly stuffed it into her pocket.

But she didn't leave.

Looking at Li Xian, who was locking his bag, she hesitated, then called out, "Hey."

"What?" Li Xian looked up, puzzled.

"You... you're also in this line of work, right? The scam tricks you used yesterday were... impressive. Since we've met, could you... teach me a few moves?"

Seeing himself mistaken for a fellow scammer, Li Xian's face fell immediately.

Beside him, Xu Maoh chuckled, "What can be taught? It's all about intelligence, you know? Intelligence!"

Seeing Li Xian's serious face, the scammer thought her guess was correct. She clasped her hands together, making a pleading face. "Please... even though you've returned the money, you've ruined me! I've been hiding from the usurer, Big Tooth, and today they found me outside the pawnshop... I'm at my wit's end, please help me..."

Seeing how naturally the little scammer switched expressions and how shameless she was, Li Xian couldn't help but stroke his chin. "How much do you owe this Big Tooth?"

The scammer extended five fingers without hesitation. "Five thousand. But with interest, it's twenty-five thousand."

"Ah..." Li Xian smiled, patted her shoulder, and said, "Teaching you a few tricks... that can be arranged."

Seeing the scammer's delighted expression, he gave a mysterious smile. "But you'll need to come with me to the mainland. If things go well, I'll cover your debt. Not only that, I'll give you a big opportunity..." He drew out the last word, "...fate!"

The scammer was excited and immediately bowed her head. "Thank you, Master!"

Li Xian waved his hand. "Don't call me Master."

"What should I call you?"

"Call me Boss!"

The scammer complied eagerly.

She bowed deeply, flipped her long hair, and said, "Hello, Boss!"

"Good. What's your name?"

"My name is A..."

"Your real name."

"Yan Shilin..."

Li Xian smiled slightly, scrutinized her up and down, and snapped his fingers. "Let's go."

"Where to, Boss?"

"Central. First, let's give you a makeover."

...

The next morning.

In the hotel room where Li Xian and his group were staying.

"Wow!"

"Wow, what's going on!"

When the little scammer, who had been fussing in the room for more than two hours, emerged, Xu Maoh and Li Jie were both astonished.

The little scammer had undergone a complete transformation.

Her once disheveled long hair was neatly styled, and the shoe prints on her face had faded after a night's rest. With light makeup, she looked quite attractive.

Her overly masculine casual clothes were replaced by a black Prada mini skirt and a red shawl. With simple Swarovski crystal accessories and a Gucci minimalist handbag, paired with perfectly fitting high heels...

She was a new person.

Except for a slight lack of refinement in her demeanor, she now looked like a true socialite.

Seeing this transformation, Li Xian smiled with satisfaction.

"From now on, you're the General Manager of Hong Kong Hengyuan Trading Company. The mistress of a prominent but low-key tycoon in Hong Kong, your family... fled from Bincheng to Hong Kong."

The little scammer realized her new identity and said, "Boss, you're not planning to make me participate in a scam in the mainland, are you?! I don't do anything involving seduction!"

Scam?

Well, sort of.

As for using seduction...

Hehe.

"Don't worry. Once we're on the mainland, you'll be a respected lady. No one will dare to lay a hand on you."

Li Xian lowered his arms and reassured her.
