Chapter 410: Missiles
The morning sunlight spilled onto the dark asphalt road, the traffic lights flickered, and with the roar of engines, the flow of cars on the road slowly moved.
A black van gradually pulled up in front of a tall building.
“Are you really in such a hurry? Can’t you wait a couple more days and go with us?” Lin Qiye, sitting in the passenger seat, turned to look at Bai Li Pangpang in the back seat.
Bai Li Pangpang sighed, “The day after tomorrow is Grandpa’s birthday banquet. As the sole heir, I definitely need to head back early. Those distant relatives and representatives from other groups and big families are all important figures that I need to personally entertain. There’s still a lot to prepare for the banquet…”
Cao Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly, “Why does it sound like you’re looking forward to it?”
“Hehe, after all, it’s my first time hosting such a big event. In the past, these things were all arranged by my dad,” Bai Li Pangpang replied with a smile.
Lin Qiye nodded, “Alright, then you go ahead. The joining items for Jialan and the bow sent for repairs won’t arrive until tomorrow night, and An Qingyu’s experiment will also take some time. We’ll meet you directly at the banquet the day after tomorrow.”
Lin Qiye reached back to pat his shoulder, “Remember to dress sharp then.”
“Don’t worry! No one understands fashion better than I do,” Bai Li Pangpang chuckled.
Bai Li Pangpang pulled out four envelopes with a black background and golden patterns from his pocket and handed them to the others.
The envelopes had a slightly frosted texture, made of an unknown material, and under the sunlight, they emitted a faint golden glow, looking high-end and formal. In the corner of the envelope was stamped the Bai Li Group’s seal.
“This is the invitation to the birthday banquet. With this, you can go straight in when the time comes,” Bai Li Pangpang said. “Just wait until you get to Guangshen and enjoy the ultra-luxurious leisure package I’ve arranged for you!”
After saying that, he glanced at the time, hurriedly opened the car door, and got out.
“I’m off now, see you at the banquet,” Bai Li Pangpang waved at the car and turned to walk into the building.
About two minutes later, a helicopter flew in from the distance, slowly landing on the rooftop helipad of the building, and then Bai Li Pangpang disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Lin Qiye watched the helicopter leave and withdrew his gaze.
“The Bai Li Group, huh…”
Cao Yuan opened the envelope from the driver’s seat and took out an invitation. After reading it from start to finish, he sighed, “This birthday banquet looks quite high-end. The attendees are either group CEOs or social elites… Should we also dress formally?”
Lin Qiye thought for a moment, “We probably should. Do you have formal attire?”
“No,” Cao Yuan shook his head.
Jialan in the back seat also shook his head in confusion.
Lin Qiye sighed, “Let’s go, we’ll stop by the mall and each pick out a formal outfit…”
After hesitating for a moment, he added, “Keep the receipts. When we get to Guangshen, let Bai Li Pangpang reimburse us.”
……
Vroom vroom vroom……
With a buzzing sound, the helicopter slowly landed, the cabin door opened, and the wind from the spinning blades blew Bai Li Pangpang’s hair wildly.
He took off his ear protection, pulled out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket, and walked steadily toward another open area where a private jet was quietly parked on the runway.
“Good morning, young master!” A beautiful woman in uniform beside the private jet flashed a sweet smile and slightly bowed.
“Hmm.” Bai Li Pangpang, wearing sunglasses, nodded slightly, his gaze landing on the uniformed woman. He paused for a moment, somewhat puzzled, and asked, “Who are you…”
“I’m your new private flight attendant,” the uniformed woman smiled and said, “You can call me Xiao Xu.”
“Oh, Xiao Xu…”
Bai Li Pangpang nodded and stepped directly onto the plane, with Xiao Xu following closely behind and shutting the cabin door.
The interior of the plane was spacious, even with a full set of genuine leather sofas, a long business table, and a bar area, there was still ample room to move around, looking grand and high-end.
Bai Li Pangpang lay back on the leather sofa, letting out a comfortable groan.
Not long after, the plane took off along the runway, experiencing a slight bump as it soared into the clouds, heading straight for Guangshen City.
Once the plane stabilized, Xiao Xu walked up to Bai Li Pangpang with a specially crafted cocktail and placed it on the table with a smile.
“By the way, is this my dad’s new private jet?” Bai Li Pangpang looked around, nodding in satisfaction, “Compared to the previous ones, this one is indeed much nicer.”
“No, this is Young Master Jing’s plane,” Xiao Xu gently explained.
“Bai Li Jing?” Bai Li Pangpang was taken aback, “How did he get a private jet?”
“It’s said that Young Master Jing has been managing the group quite well recently, and the chairman rewarded him with it.”
Bai Li Pangpang frowned slightly, took a sip of the cocktail, and spoke with some frustration, “I don’t even have a private jet, and this kid managed to get one before me… When I get back, I’ll probably be mocked by him again.”
Bai Li Jing was Bai Li Pangpang’s father, Bai Li Xin’s adopted son, and was the same age as Bai Li Pangpang.
However, unlike the idle Bai Li Pangpang, this adopted son of the Bai Li family was exceptionally intelligent from a young age. After reaching adulthood, he was quietly placed in the grassroots of the Bai Li Group by Bai Li Xin, starting as an inconspicuous employee.
With his sharp mind and exceptional business talent, he quickly climbed the ranks within the Bai Li Group, and when his identity was revealed, it caused a stir within the group, earning him a loyal following.
Because of his experience starting from the bottom, Bai Li Jing’s understanding of the Bai Li Group was on par with Chairman Bai Li Xin, which is why the latter often entrusted him with various group affairs, gradually building his own network.
When Bai Li Pangpang inherited the Bai Li Group, Bai Li Jing was assigned to manage the company on his behalf.
“The profits Young Master Jing has generated for the group are worth much more than a private jet,” Xiao Xu said with a smile.
Bai Li Pangpang opened his mouth, about to say something, when the scene before him suddenly blurred…
“What is this…” Bai Li Pangpang reached out to steady his swaying body, his brow furrowing tightly. He looked at the cocktail on the table and then up at the smiling, silent Xiao Xu, “Did you drug me?!”
“I’m sorry, young master,” Xiao Xu said apologetically, “We can’t let you return to Guangshen alive.”
Whoosh—!!
A missile trailing a long flame streaked across the sky, accurately striking the high-speed private jet amidst the layered clouds!
A blinding flash of fire erupted in mid-air!
