Dong Xieyou suddenly attacked Jiang Mi’er, but she was prepared and swiftly dodged. The two quickly beca entangled in a fight.
Gradually, Jiang Mi’er fell into a disadvantage and was ultimately caught by Dong Xieyou’s chokehold. The man’s eyes were cold as he stared her down: "What I do is none of your business."
Jiang Mi’er laughed lightly: "You’ve already been exposed. You can’t stay in Jiangzhou any longer. Soon, you’ll be wanted worldwide. This is the consequence of your recklessness. Can you endure Q’s wrath? Can you endure the Queen’s wrath? Do you think you’ll survive if she finds out what you’ve done?"
Dong Xieyou’s gaze turned icy as he abruptly flung Jiang Mi’er away. She wiped the blood from her mouth as she got up and sneered: "Let’s see how you self-destruct."
Dong Xieyou let out a cold snort, opened the window, and a yacht was speeding towards them. Dong Xieyou flipped out of the window, jumped onto the yacht, and quickly disappeared into the dark sea.
Jiang Mi’er ran to the window, watching the quickly disappearing figure, and then took out her phone to make a call.
"He’s already gone."
——
A high-end villa district in Jiangzhou.
Dong Xieyou opened the door and walked in, unsurprised to see soone in the living room.
Cold, slender, like a snow lotus on the pinnacle of a high mountain.
Thin lips pulled into a mocking smile as he closed the door behind him.
"What a rare guest."
The man stepped forward without warning, slapping Dong Xieyou’s face, causing it to turn to one side. A cold gleam flashed in his eyes as he spat out blood.
"Foolish."
Grinding his teeth in frustration, he let out a sinister laugh and suddenly raised his eyes to look at the pair of eyes he never dared to face directly: "Do you care that much? Maybe she doesn’t even know who you are. Why bother?"
The man turned away, hands behind his back, exuding an icy aura. The silver mask on his face reflected a cold glint in the light.
"The Queen is very angry. Go back and accept your punishnt. You may never set foot in Country Hua again."
Dong Xieyou quietly clenched his fists.
"And if I refuse?"
The next mont, a man dressed in black stepped out of the shadows, pointing a gun at Dong Xieyou’s head.
"Those who defy orders will be executed without rcy."
The curtains fluttered, but the figure was nowhere to be seen, except for the relentless echo of the cold voice reminding him that everything just now was no illusion.
Never set foot in Country Hua again... Heh... That punishnt sure is harsh.
But before leaving, he had sothing more important to do.
The bar was still bustling in the late night, with heavy tal music pounding ear drums from all directions.
A man pushed the door open and entered. He was wearing a black overcoat and a full-brimd hat, his skin slightly dark, a stubbly beard on his chin. At first glance, he appeared to be a brute, drawing no attention as he walked to the bar counter.
"Hello, sir, what would you like to order?"
"A glass of whisky."
"Sure, sir, please wait a mont."
The bartender pushed the glass toward him, the bright red liquid refracting a dazzling light. The man pinched the glass between two fingers, taking a sip with casual elegance that caught the eyes of many won.
"This liquor isn’t pure." The man pushed the glass back.
The bartender raised an eyebrow slightly, "One mont, sir, I’ll mix another. What flavor do you prefer?"
"Boweier."
"I’m sorry, sir, we don’t have it at the mont, but there should be so in the cellar. If you don’t mind, you can co with ."
The man reluctantly stood up.
The bartender signaled to soone in the dark, and another bartender ca over to cover for him, while he led the man away.
They took a turn behind the bar, not toward the cellar, but going up to the second floor instead.
In front of the room on the second floor, the bartender gently knocked on the door: "Mr. Ulysses is here."
A voice from inside responded: "Co in."
The bartender gestured for him to enter, and the man pushed the door open and went in.
The room was luxuriously decorated, with an opulence tinged with a certain purple intoxication. On the sofa, sitting with his back towards him, was a man whose elegance shone even in the dim light.
"Where’s what I asked for?" his eyes cautiously scanning the surroundings.
The man suddenly stood up and turned around. He was a young man, extrely handso, especially his cold, clear eyes, which were like bright moonlight, drowning one in such gentleness.
"Don’t rush; considering fate has brought us together, we’re friends. How about sitting down for a drink?" the man spoke in a clear, gentle voice.
Frowning slightly: "I just want the item."
The man shook his head and sighed, instructing his companion: "Bring the item over."
That person quickly ca over carrying a box and placed it on the table.
"Check it."
Ulysses walked over and opened the box, finding a complete set of blue-and-white antiques. After inspecting it, he nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, this is exactly what I wanted."
He took out a check from his pocket and put it on the table: "Deal."
The man did not take the check.
Sensing sothing was off, the man grabbed the item and was about to leave when suddenly, black-clad n surrounded him, all guns aid at his head.
Ulysses did not panic. He sneered, turning around: "A double-cross?"
The man gently shook his head: "No, I have a friend who wants to et you."
Ulysses frowned, tightly gripping the case, "Who?"
The man lightly glanced sideways, and Ulysses followed his gaze.
Amidst the grand shadows, a slender figure slowly walked out, her face revealed under the light, as if born from the essence of moonlight, beautiful beyond compare.
Ulysses’ pupils shrank as he coldly said: "So it’s you."
"Actor Dong, long ti no see," the girl softly spoke, her voice captivating.
Pei Qinghan watched the girl erge, his gaze softening with warmth, like sunlight breaking through ice, spreading layers of tenderness.
Ulysses, who was actually Dong Xieyou, suddenly understood everything: "Since when did you find out?" It was all a setup, and he naively stepped right into it. Q was right; he was foolish.
"The first ti I saw you." The girl smiled gently, seeming so innocent.
Dong Xieyou squinted: "Looks like I’ve always underestimated you."
"Underestimation is your greatest weakness. It seems Ji Lanyi’s teaching isn’t that impressive," he mocked with a curl of his lips.
Dong Xieyou looked at the girl and suddenly laughed: "Ji Yunya, you’re indeed clever. Losing to you isn’t a loss for ."
Yun Ya lost patience: "Tie him up for ...."
She intended to extract information about Ji Lanyi from this person.
Mingyue slipped in and tossed soone at Yun Ya’s feet: "Sneaky, an enemy not a friend."
Yun Ya lowered her eyes to look at the person.
Yellow Hair cried out in pain and got up, cursing this freak’s strange skills. He looked up to see the girl looking down at him and exclaid...
"Isn’t this Miss Ji? What a coincidence," Yellow Hair smirked, showing a set of white teeth.
Mingyue kicked him in the back, causing him to shiver from the pain. Damn it, this person’s foot felt like steel, it hurt so much.
Yun Ya narrowed her eyes slightly: "Who are you?"
Outside the bar, Eagle whispered: "Boss, I saw him go in with my own eyes, and Monkey is inside guarding. Should we wait for Monkey’s news?"
Yan Song strode in: "Can’t wait. Team one and team two, get ready."
