"Jiang Ren, you said that you would only be loyal to me in this world, and that you would never lie to me."

Jiang Nian asked into the phone, "Tell me, does this have anything to do with Shen Yin, or with me?"

After a long pause, the man on the other side finally spoke.

"...I don't think so, Miss."

“Okay,” Jiang Nian raised her eyelids, “I will believe what you say.”

"Take good care of yourself. I told you, you are free."

When I came to my senses, the phone had already started ringing as the call ended.

In a room across the ocean, a man with strong brows and a composed, taciturn demeanor unconsciously clenched his fist around his phone.

My heart was pounding harder, I couldn't tell if it was because of the girl's words, "I'm with Si Boye," or because of her last words, "Take good care of yourself."

Jiang Ren remained silent and slowly put his phone down.

Not far from him was the man in a wheelchair, hidden in the shadows.

"A-Nian called you."

Lu Zhaokun asked in a cold tone, his unfathomable gaze sweeping over, "What did she say?"

Jiang Ren replied somewhat stiffly, "Just as you guessed, Miss asked if the matter of someone wanting to kill Si Boye was related to her and Shen Yin."

"Yeah."

Lu Zhaokun chuckled softly.

The girl he raised was someone no one knew better than him.

He lit a cigar and held it between his fingers, glancing at me: "Didn't you value her more than anyone or anything in this world?"

"You sacrificed your freedom to become my dog ​​and do my bidding, in exchange for her freedom."

"Since she won't allow anyone to accept the bounty, and won't let anyone touch Si Boye..."

Lu Zhaokun smiled faintly, his tone as casual as if someone were to tossing away a piece of trash, "Why don't you go to China and kill that man?"
