Back then, Ye Xiaofan was very clear about how he treated Liu Siyan, and Han Shengjun was quite decisive with Ye Weiwei, yet Ye Weiwei eventually turned back to him. However, the current situation with Huang Xueyi is entirely unrelated to that; in fact, they had known each other for less than a few months, with not much emotional foundation. Breaking up early would be better for everyone.
"I couldn't reach you by phone, and I've co to your ho several tis, but you were never there. I was really worried about you. When you suddenly said you wanted to break up, I thought sothing had happened to you. Your family's bodyguards wouldn't tell anything. So I waited here for you, waiting for you to co back... I, I miss you."
Missing you... So, this is the happiness of being missed by soone.
"But we have already broken up." Ren Ying had no choice but to say sothing hurtful again.
However, seeing the glistening tears in those eyes, his heart almost lted.
There's no helping it. Even though Ren Ying is an adult, has ventured across the vast fronts with Xiaofan and Li San, witnessing countless life-and-death encounters, and has laughed and joked in bars and clubs, he is really in a formal relationship for the first ti.
What is first love? For a man, it's like a light drizzle, hazy and indistinct.
Never having experienced this feeling, Ren Ying initially accepted this emotion with trepidation, but after a few months of interaction, he found himself eagerly anticipating the arrival of each new day more and more.
He thought he wasn't feeling anything, that it was just chats, shopping, and watching movies, without any deep emotional entanglent. But on the day he decided to break up, his heart surprisingly ached.
"That was just your wishful thinking, I didn't agree with you..." Huang Xueyi's emotions were sowhat agitated, and her tearful eyes made people want to cherish her.
Looking at the gate of the Ren Family, it seed inappropriate to argue here. But if he took her inside, surely Li San and Xiaolei would tease him, and if Grandma asked, he wouldn't know how to explain.
Finally, Ren Ying walked over. He wanted to help the girl wipe her tears, but... this silly boy didn't know where to start.
"Let's go sit in the dessert shop over there."
"Okay."
Hearing the girl's lack of objection, Ren Ying walked out first. Suddenly, his sleeve was gently tugged.
Her eyes seed to plead, pleading with the man in front of her, to hold her hand while crossing the road.
He stopped, turned his head slightly. Looking at the pitiful, lovely girl, his heart softened, and he grabbed that smooth little hand back, leading her forward.
On the street, this couple looked like ordinary lovers, without the killings of an assassin, without the scheming of a spy.
The warm wind blew, warmth spread through the palm of his hand. Looking at this big boy in front of her, Huang Xueyi knew that he really held her in his heart. But... if she wasn't Ling Wu, wouldn't everything be so much better?
"Hey, Ling Wu..."
"Hmm? Ah, yes, Sect Leader."
Collecting her thoughts, just after leaving the dessert shop with Lingze, she imdiately reported back to Lingze about Ren Ying and the others returning.
"What's the situation over there?"
"Ren Ying, Li San, and Lei Xiaolei returned to the Ren Family forty-five minutes ago. And five minutes ago, I just parted ways with Ren Ying from a dessert shop."
"So, did you find out any information?" Lingze continued to ask.
"For now, there is no critical information. He didn't talk to about his matters, and I didn't dare to ask deeply, fearing he would suspect ."
Actually, just now in the dessert shop, the two didn't speak much. Lingze just ntioned he was busy with business trips, without saying a word about anything else.
And Huang Xueyi only asked one question: Can I still co to find you in the future? Is calling okay too?
Hearing this, Lingze was montarily stunned. In the end, he nodded.
Actually, right at the roadside, when he held her little hand back, he had confird the reconciliation between them.
"Sect Leader, what should I do next?" According to the initial orders, the Sect Leader should have told her to find an opportunity to assassinate Ren Ying. But now, situations seem different than before.
"Continue to stay by Ren Ying's side and observe, see whether Ye Xiaofan is truly still alive."
"Yes, I understand." Hearing such a task, Huang Xueyi felt a pang of joy: "So, does the Sect Leader have any other instructions?"
"Ling Wu..."
"Hmm?"
"Don't forget your identity, and rember, your family is relying on you."
Upon hearing this, a trace of panic flashed across Huang Xueyi's eyes, which quickly turned to loneliness. Yes, she was Ling Wu, never really Huang Xueyi.
"I understand, Sect Leader, I will do everything for the base with all my heart. Rest assured."
"Alright then."
After the call ended, Huang Xueyi… or rather Ling Wu, put down her phone, got into a taxi, and closed her eyes heavily after stating the address.
She never really had the right to enjoy love; she was just a tool, a prop, a pawn. To stay alive, and for her family to survive, she had to play her part well. It was all an act; emotions, love—they were all fake, fake.
anwhile, in Japan, Lingze also softly put down his phone.
Originally, he thought he could stand up again by relying on the Assassination Order and would have confidence in launching a new campaign in Huaxia. Clearly, there was support from all levels in Japan, and evidently, there were such good conditions. But why, why was he still so tightly suppressed by the opposition?
Could it be that soliciting Li San and his group back then was truly a mistake?
"Sect Leader..." At this mont, Uncle Zhong quickly walked into the room where the call was made.
"Hmm? What's the matter?"
"General Miyamoto is here."
"Miyamoto? What is he here for?"
Miyamoto was one of the five recipients of the letters left by Muto back then, and he fully supported Lingze taking the position of Sect Leader. But now, with the Assassination Order thwarted, what's his intention for coming now?
"General Miyamoto..."
"Lingze, you have really disappointed ."
Upon stepping out to greet him, the first words from the other party made Lingze unable to lift his head.
Over the past half-year, Lingze had enjoyed smooth sailing, but no matter how much success you had before, one failure would reduce all the glory to nothing.
"General Miyamoto, this ti I indeed miscalculated, and things went wrong..." Lingze straightforwardly admitted to his mistakes.
"Hmph." Miyamoto snorted coldly, glancing at Lingze: "I agreed to give you a chance back then because of Mr. Muto, but now you've ssed everything up. You're not only unable to answer to us, but how will you face Mr. Muto's kindness towards you in the future?"
"Lingze admits his fault and hopes General Miyamoto gives another chance."
"Chance... Fine, if you can defeat them, I'll agree to give you another chance."
'Whizz.' As soon as the words fell, a figure shot past in front of him swiftly, attacking Lingze with imnse force.
