Book 1: Chapter 93

I didn't care about Bai Haotian's attempts at blocking me and ran out with the leather figurine woman. She pulled and dragged at me from behind as I rushed to the door of Warehouse Eleven.

The iron door at the entrance was closed. As long as the iron door of such a large warehouse was closed, it was very difficult to open even if it wasnt locked. I slammed the heavy iron door with one hand to try and open it, but I didnt have enough strength with just one hand. It cracked open very slowly, but Bai Haotian pressed her back against the door to prevent me from opening it and shouted, "No! No, you can't!"

I tugged a few more times but it didnt budge. I let go and looked at her. She was covering the door with her whole body, "No, you can't leave. Things arent allowed out of Warehouse Eleven. If even one thing is gone, our Bai familys century-old reputation will be ruined."

"The Bai family hasnt lost a single thing in a hundred years? I dont believe it. With your level of security here, I bet I could carry all the items out of this warehouse tonight. Dont believe me? I tried to mimic Fatty's fierce way of speaking and grinned. "Well, whether you believe me or not, Ill carry you out tonight." As I spoke, I put in a lot of effort to try and look at her in a lascivious manner.

Bai Haotian reached up and bolted the door. As she continued to cling to it, she looked at me with a flushed face, "You can carry me out, but you cant take any of the items away!"

"Wow, so shameless."

What the fuck? Are you here to guard the warehouse or find a date? I cursed to myself before pointing at her nose, "Ill get rough."

"You won't." She looked at me confidently. "Youre Wu Xie, you won't get rough."

"Then give me my signature back if youre not going to help!"

"No takebacks!"

I wanted to cry. I looked around and saw that there werent any other places to get out of the three-story warehouse besides the numerous air vents. I looked at the little girl. Was she really going to force me to climb the wall? I discarded the leather figurine woman and Bai Haotian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that I had finally given up. But just as she moved forward to pick up the leather figurine woman, I stepped forward and lifted her up with one hand. I then tore off the non-woven fabric from a nearby stone and wrapped it around her several times before tying a knot.

Once that was done, I immediately rushed back and picked up the leather figurine woman. I then opened the door behind her back and ran out while shouting, "Ill bring it back in three days!"

I carried the leather figurine woman all the way to my car, put it in the passenger seat, and then stepped on the gas and drove out. After driving for several kilometers, I was certain she wouldnt catch up. I breathed a sigh of relief and then looked over at the leather figurine woman. Its posture had changed after I had lugged it around, and now it looked like it was cheering with its mouth open as it sat in my passenger seat.

I picked up my e-cigarette and slowed down. There was a traffic cop in front of me, so I took a deep breath and slowly drove past. The officer looked at my passenger and I vaguely heard him ask, "Do they also come in this style?"

I wasnt sure whether Bai Haotian would inform my Uncle Two, but I figured she would probably wait at least three days for me to return the item since the Bai family's reputation was at stake. Still, it was best to be quick about it, so I drove straight to Hefang Street. There was an expert there that I knew. He was called "Ha Zong" because he looked like a Husky (1). This person specialized in researching various folk remedies and folk magic. There was even a folk remedy museum on Hefang Street that was later banned.

I reached the parking lot and then ran down Hefang Street with the leather figurine woman in my arms. I ran all the way to Ha Zongs shop and found that he was playing mahjong with a few people from the next shop over. He was very happy to see me come in, but his expression immediately changed as soon as he caught sight of the leather figurine woman.
