Chapter 588: Chapter 588: The Mandarin Duck Spectrum
Public Sea, inside a helicopter.
“Heh, a bunch of kids, thinking they can catch .” Wang Kai held a tablet, swiping it casually, surrounded by personnel from the War God Temple. They were in charge of the Temple’s businesses in the region. As soon as they heard about Wang Kai’s retreat, they readied themselves.
“Sir, we will reach the War God Temple in six hours.” A staff mber spoke, and Wang Kai glanced at the sea below. The War God Temple was situated in Africa; he hadn’t expected the helicopter to be so swift.
“Mm, stay on high alert.” Wang Kai said indifferently.
………………………
National Security Bureau, this was a rare failure for the Divine Weapon Special Group and a major defeat for the Bureau. They didn’t startle the snake by hitting the grass and failed to catch their target squarely. Wang Kai managed to escape, and the operation even resulted in several minor injuries. It was a complete failure.
The three people from Tianjing entered the office with dark expressions, looking like they had taken a huge hit.
“How are you guys, Tianjing?” Phoenix, the only one who didn’t participate in the operation, imdiately offered consolation upon hearing the news.
“Sigh, forget it, I’m fine.” Tianjing sat in a chair listlessly.
“Captain, it’s our fault; we weren’t able to help.” Jing Xie guiltily blad himself.
“No, it’s not your fault. I am the commander, it’s my inescapable responsibility.” Tianjing covered his face with his hands and spoke in agony. His appearance was reminiscent of Ye Shikai after a failed operation, but at least they had no fatalities, unlike the Dragon Teeth special forces team, which had faced total annihilation that ti.
“Is the opponent very strong, Tianjing?” Phoenix asked in a low voice.
“Knock knock knock.” At this mont, there was knocking at the office door. Jin Li walked in with a smile.
“Director.” The four stood up imdiately and saluted.
“Sit down, don’t be silly standing there.” Jin Li said with an amiable smile, showing no sign of bla, which made the four even more anxious.
“Cough cough, Director, this mission’s failure is my responsibility. I request to be punished.” Tianjing said solemnly. They were the elite of the National Security Bureau, their creed was never “do your best and let it be.” If they failed a mission, they failed and were subject to penalties, and the heaviest punishnt was the self-reproach and guilt in their hearts.
“Sit down. I had already anticipated this mission’s failure.” Jin Li’s statent stunned the four. Could it be…
“I believe you already know the target of this mission, right?” Jin Li spoke calmly, “One of the twelve Main Gods, the War God.”
“Really lives up to the reputation.” Tianjing said coolly, though it was a bit embarrassing to admit. But only by acknowledging it did they have the chance to surpass him. The biggest fear was not recognizing their inferiority and acting like a frog in a well.
“Mid-stage Soul Ergence strength, even the four of you together would have difficulty opposing him.” Jin Li continued, “This is Yanjing, he was in a hurry to retreat and didn’t use his full strength, otherwise you all would be in even greater danger tonight.”
“Director, but we’ve confird that he is the murderer, are we just going to let him go?” Shen Wu said with a sense of loss.
“Of course not, it’s just not right now. And you will need help.”
“Help.”
“Help.”
“Where’s the help coming from?”
………………………
Zhu Xi Hotel, parking lot.
“How do I look in this outfit?” Inside a luxury car, Chen Yuxin sat in the driver’s seat, fiddling with her clothes in front of Ye Shikai.
“Pretty good, noble yet approachable, ordinary but not plain.” Ye Shikai glanced over, no wonder they say a beauty looks good in anything. Ordinary people rely on clothes to make them look better, but for a goddess changing clothes rely alters her style. Chen Yuxin in a dress exuded both mature and youthful charms.
Ye Shikai had reminded Chen Yuxin that since they were all classmates, there was no need to show off. Just dress normally. Of course, Chen Yuxin understood this too. After all, a woman dresses for the man she adores; her new clothes were only for Ye Shikai.
“You go in first, I’ll follow in ten minutes.” Ye Shikai said lightly.
“Mm.” Chen Yuxin nodded slightly.
Ten minutes later.
Ye Shikai took a deep breath in front of the private room door and slowly pushed it open. His old classmates were gathered around the table, talking and laughing.
But the mont he entered, everyone froze, and the room fell silent.
Ye Shikai wondered, did he naturally cool down the atmosphere so easily?
“Hello everyone.”
“Haha, Old Ye is here, I’ve missed you so much.” A chubby man walked up quickly and gave Ye Shikai a big hug. This was his close friend from high school, once nicknad “Pang,” but now it was appropriate to call him “Big Pang.”
“Old Ye, please take a seat. Everyone’s been waiting for you.” Ye Shikai greeted everyone with a smile. The girls looked at him with admiring eyes and starry gazes. Ye Shikai laughed proudly, still sharp as ever, though he had already taken himself off the market…
Pang guided Ye Shikai to a seat in the middle, right next to Chen Yuxin. These people must have planned this in advance.
“Ah, it’s really too bad that our class president, even though he initiated this, didn’t show up himself,” a female classmate complained.
“Let it be, let it be, he’s a busy person. Otherwise, how could we afford such an expensive hotel?” another spoke, and Ye Shikai avoided their gazes sowhat sheepishly…
“Co on, it’s rare for us to et up, let’s all have a drink.”
“Cheers.”
“Cheers.”
“Cheers.”
………………………
“Yuxin, after so long you’re still so beautiful, you’ve taken good care of yourself.” A woman said to Chen Yuxin with a smile.
“Thank you.” Chen Yuxin nodded with a smiling, charming grin.
“You left without a word back then, Old Ye was really heartbroken.” At that mont, a man beside quipped, “Luckily, you two got back together.”
“I…”
“Thank you, everyone. There was an urgent matter at ho back then and I didn’t say goodbye, I’m really sorry.” Ye Shikai was about to explain but was interrupted by Chen Yuxin.
“Old Ye, how are you two getting along now?” Pang asked aside.
“Pang, isn’t that a silly question? They are a model couple. Is there even a need to ask?” another man interjected.
“We are very happy together, thank you for your concern.” Chen Yuxin said with a smile. Ye Shikai suddenly had a bad premonition. How did this turn into a couple’s situation? Nevertheless, he went along with it for the ti being. He couldn’t blow his cover now; he would wait until the end to clarify things.
