The surrounding lights were dim, and people are more prone to impulsiveness under dim lighting. Combined with the catalysis of alcohol, this is exactly what happened.

From the booth sofa in the corner, you could even hear some ambiguous sounds.

Without even thinking, you can guess what's happening there.

Yuanfeng and the other man tacitly pretended not to see anything and walked straight ahead, leaving the hall in the blink of an eye.

The journey was smooth, and we finally arrived at the door of a private room.

Just as Qi Jiu placed her hand on the door of the private room, some ambiguous sounds and laughter came from inside. After listening, Yuan Feng subconsciously looked at the bodyguards on either side of the door.

Their expressionless faces suggested they were used to such things.

Yuanfeng: "..."

Qi Jiu heard it too, but pretended not to hear anything and pushed the door open under Yuan Feng's somewhat shocked gaze.

"Miss, young lady..." Don't look at what you shouldn't see...

If I see something I shouldn't see, I'll get a sty as soon as I get home.

The lights in the private room were all on, unlike the dim lighting in the main hall outside.

Looking around, one could see a woman straddling a man in the middle of the sofa, her figure accentuated by her form-fitting and sexy clothes.

The faint smell of alcohol added to the already ambiguous atmosphere.

Yuanfeng is now certain that without them, both of them could have gone all the way to the end.

The sudden appearance of Qi Jiu and her companion was undoubtedly seen by others as ruining the man's plans, but when he saw the girl's face, he didn't get angry at all.

Instead, his smile widened even more.

"Oh my, who is this beauty? Why are you dressed so warmly here? Or are you looking for a man? Then you've come to the wrong place."

The woman straddling the chair turned her head, her face alluring, and when she looked back at Qi Jiu, her eyes unconsciously held a slight provocation.

Her bodycon skirt had ridden up quite a bit due to her movements, beginning to subtly reveal her alluring underwear. The front of her top was low, making her cleavage almost spill out.

“Mr. Sirlo, there are people here, and I’m shy. You see…” The woman deliberately smeared her lipstick onto Sirlo’s white shirt, as if to assert her ownership.

But everyone present should have understood the meaning behind her words. Wasn't this a blatant order to leave? She was clearly trying to kick Qi Jiu out; such an infuriating face was something she couldn't afford to ignore.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiluo threw the person aside. "Get out!"

His voice was cold, shattering the ambiguous atmosphere in the air.

"I heard you, Mr. Sirlo told you... ah? What?"

The woman's arrogant expression didn't last long before it shattered, and she stared at Xiluo beside her in disbelief.

"Mr. Sirlo?"

A charming voice rang out, interspersed with a slight shout. Not to mention Xiluo, even Qijiu felt goosebumps rising all over her body.

She never expected that Xiluo, who had previously only doted on her, had completely changed. His eyes were devoid of any emotion as he looked at her, as if he were looking at a dead object.

"Didn't I hear you? Have I been spoiling you too much lately? You should know what I'm like when I'm angry, so don't make me angry."

Xiluo tugged at his collar, the smile from before gone.

Seeing this, the woman had no choice but to leave. Looking at Xiluo's expressionless face, as if she had thought of something, she quickened her pace in fright.

Having witnessed the entire process, Qi Jiu suddenly smiled.

"Did I interrupt your good time?"

The man in the center of the sofa waved his hand, his eyes full of amusement as he looked at Qi Jiu. "No one can compare to you. Good thing? What counts as good thing? The fact that you came to find me is good thing."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass on the table, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.

He subconsciously moved closer to the girl. "Is there anything you want to know? Just ask. If I know the answer, I'll definitely tell you."

Qi Jiu nodded, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Zero's recent whereabouts."

"This continent is the one Zero is most concerned about, because the assassin organization here is your hometown."

At this, Yuan Feng, who was standing next to him, was stunned. He turned around abruptly and looked at Qi Jiu with a change in his eyes.

His hometown? Is it what he thinks? His master's sister or an assassin?

No wonder they dared not bring a single person to this bustling city.

Xiluo's voice rang out again. "Also, Zero seems to be making some moves here. I've already had people keeping an eye on him. He's probably targeting the assassin organization, so be careful."

As he spoke, Xiluo took out his phone, fiddling with something for a moment, and then quickly handed it over.

"Look, this location is a makeshift outpost, that's about the size. If you have the manpower, you can just take it down. Of course, if you don't have the manpower, just let me know and I'll help you."

Xiluo was a pure Westerner with a high nose, deep-set features, and those colored eyes, which seemed to give him a captivating charm in everything he did.

But now, when he looks at Qi Jiu, his eyes are full of seriousness.

Such generosity and magnanimity left Yuan Feng, who was standing next to him, dumbfounded.

"I understand, but if you can avoid getting involved, then don't. Don't get involved in this mess." The girl looked at Xiluo and chuckled.

Yuan Feng sat to the side, unable to get a word in edgewise, but he was completely shocked as he listened to the conversation between the two people next to him.

"Qi, you have to understand. You saved my life, so don't be polite with me. If I can repay you one day, I'm willing to do so."

Even if it means dying for her, that's her fate anyway.

There was no reluctance or embarrassment on his face; the tenderness in his eyes was undeniable. He poured another glass of wine into his glass, then raised it to the girl and drank it all in one gulp.

As time passed, they received quite a bit of news. When the girl left with Yuan Feng, she glanced back at Xi Luo, who was watching her, and pursed her lips.

"Siro, live well and don't worry about me."

In fact, she had always wanted to know why, after saving Xiluo's life from the face of death, he didn't use the money he earned from the mission to live a peaceful life.

The savings they have now are enough for an average person to live on for several lifetimes.

Surprisingly, he still chose to continue being a mercenary.

He'll do anything as long as you pay him. Maybe now, she's his bottom line. But sometimes I really don't understand why he has to continue living like this.
