"It has been confird, the person just now was indeed Ye Xiaofan from the Assassination Order. However, there were too many people on the scene, and given the high bounty on his head, he must be an expert. I've already seen the number of the room he booked. According to the geography, arrange for the sniper to take him out tonight."
"Alright, co over here and we'll discuss further. The sniper might not be able to take him out at once. If it were that simple to kill him, there wouldn't have been so many deaths at his hands before. The sniper is just the first step; the second step is to ambush him after he cos downstairs."
"We agreed that if we kill him, the money is split equally among us."
"Seven of us, whoever kills Ye Xiaofan gets one billion, and the remaining six will share the rest. That's already been settled."
"Alright, let's find a sniper spot first."
This was the conversation of the assassins outside the Venerate Emperor.
Indeed, assassins are everywhere, mainly because the generous reward is too tempting. Even without knowing Ye Xiaofan's whereabouts, these assassins would gather in the Capital City.
Seven of them? Actually, there are three groups of assassins within them. They all t while waiting for Xiaofan, and they had information on those assassins who failed last ti. Hence, they aren't confident in killing Ye Xiaofan alone. So they're planning to join forces; with more people, there is more certainty.
Though Xiaofan has always been vigilant, he never underestimated the existence of the Assassination Order. Yet he didn't expect to be targeted by assassins as soon as he showed up in the Capital City.
Ironically, it was because Shen Zuimo was too beautiful. The mont she stepped out of the car, she attracted a lot of attention. Assassins are human too, and they know how to enjoy life more than ordinary people. So, beauties are one of the enjoynts.
Therefore, discovered by killers in this way, Xiaofan couldn't really bla anyone. The fem fatale was no longer the mischief maker inside the Western walls, but a trouble from the sky.
After eating five crabs, Shen Zuimo finally stopped. Perhaps it was the red wine; a tint of blush appeared on her already lovely face, making her even more enchanting.
"I'm full, and then?"
Once again being stared at unscrupulously by this guy. He was really annoying. Despite giving him the side-eye many tis, he still didn't restrain himself.
"Is there anywhere you'd like to go?"
"No."
"Then let's get so rest upstairs."
"..."
Shen Zuimo wanted to say sothing but didn't know what to say. She couldn't guess what Ye Xiaofan was up to. If she guessed wrong, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
And if she guessed right? The previous inner turmoil surfaced again. Why just one room? What was this guy planning?
"Sir, your total spending tonight is three thousand seven hundred eighty-two yuan. We'll round it down to three thousand seven hundred. Also, if you choose to stay here, there are complintary samples available. If you haven't prepared, we have mint-flavored, fruit-flavored, and so more playful types."
Looking at the condoms recomnded by the front desk attendant, Xiaofan gave a strange smile and glanced at Shen Zuimo behind him.
"Ask her, let her choose whatever type she likes..."
With that, Xiaofan cheerfully walked over to the elevator.
"..." Shen Zuimo shot a look at the attendant, hesitated for a mont, and followed that rascal to the elevator.
Why? Why should she, like a silly girl, follow him to stay in such a place? What was this inexplicable flutter? Why has she been so emotionally chaotic today?
A host of "whys" clouded her mind, right up until they opened the room door and walked inside. Shen Zuimo couldn't figure any of it out.
Normally in movies, it plays out that as soon as two people enter the room, they start kissing before even closing the door. Then, while kissing, they kick off their shoes, followed by clothes. Finally, a small, fair white jade foot hooks the door shut, and the scene freezes there.
Would he do that to her? If he really intended to, how should she react? And did walking into the room with him sohow imply she consented to his actions?
Oh god, her head was about to explode.
The imagined scene didn't happen, as expected. Shen Zuimo had indeed overthought things.
This guy rely squatted by her side after she entered, gently untying the straps of her high-heeled sandals.
"Don't shy away..."
Seeing this, Shen Zuimo's first reaction was to pull away her foot. Such an intimate gesture was sothing she couldn't imdiately accept.
But with Xiaofan's words, she suddenly stopped moving. His voice had a srizing quality, a compelling authority she couldn't refuse.
The softness of her ankle held in his hand had Shen Zuimo's heartbeat racing. No one had ever been so considerate of her.
No, she had always turned away anyone trying to be considerate. She was like an icy mountain, too cold for anyone to approach. But now, there was this fearless guy right in front of her.
"You haven't worn them in a while, it must be tiring. Go have a seat, I'll find so hot water for a foot soak..."
"Don't be silly, if I want to do sothing, I'll do it myself."
"Just humor , please. Let fulfill a long-held wish of mine today, alright?"
What did he an? What wish? Why must she accompany him in fulfilling such nonsense? Who was Shen Zuimo? Just because he gave an earnest look, did he think she would agree?
Of course not. Xiaofan didn't need her consent. After switching to slippers, he headed to the bathroom, soon returning with a small wooden tub filled with hot water.
"Co on, put your feet in, the temperature is just right."
"..." Shen Zuimo looked at Xiaofan coldly. She couldn't utter a word.
"After all, when life's already on the line, what's holding back?" Xiaofan said with a smile, seeing Shen Zuimo's expression.
"But that doesn't an my life can be recklessly indulged."
"It's just a foot soak, is it that serious?"
"I don't like people touching ."
"Just this once," Xiaofan said, reaching out to grab her round ankle.
"Back off," Shen Zuimo glared at Xiaofan, reluctantly slipping her small feet into the tub, imdiately overwheld by a wave of comfort.
