He was once a top-tier assassin, an existence that even international police feared. Now, he's the small owner of a dry-cleaning shop.
To take care of his younger brother and sister, whom...
“Boss, this deal is probably a trap set by the other side. Although that kid was unlucky enough to be killed by the police, I don’t think the two of us can go back to Sicily for the time being. I’ve never been treated like this since I started out. I have to find out what happened!” At this moment, Hei Zi was helping Qiu Sha Hammerli, who jumped off the car with him, walk towards Florence.
The scene shifts back to yesterday. Less than three minutes after Kuroko and Qiusha Hammerli got into the car and fled, Kuroko suddenly decided to jump out. Qiusha Hammerli hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Less than a minute after they left the car, another Cadillac sped past. A dozen minutes later, the car they had been in earlier crashed into a ravine and exploded!
Both Czech and Qiusha Hanmeri breathed a sigh of relief. Qiusha Hanmeri breathed a sigh of relief because Czech's quick thinking had saved her life, while Heizi breathed a sigh of relief because her master had played such a cruel trick this time. In any case, Qiusha Hanmeri's dependence on Heizi had increased even more at this moment!
"Czech, what do we do now?" Qiusha Hanmeri leaned almost all her weight on Heizi, whose strong arms were wrapped around Qiusha Hanmeri's slender waist. The two of them stood on the highway, looking at the distant city of Florence, looking somewhat disheveled!
“Let’s go to Florence. Before dawn, find a hotel to rest, change your clothes. Don’t worry, your face hasn’t been seen, and I’m sure no one will recognize mine. Besides, those cops are probably celebrating right now; they don’t have time for us! And besides, we’re already dead, aren’t we?” Seeing Qiu Sha Hanmoli’s worried expression, Hei Zi spoke comforting words without hesitation, and the reasons he listed were all reasonable. Qiu Sha Hanmoli’s expression softened considerably after Hei Zi finished speaking. “Then let’s go! I hope I can walk.”
Qiu Sha Han Moli is wearing a black silk dress and high heels today. She probably won't be able to walk very far on this hard highway.
People say that scheming women have many wrinkles because they're busy calculating every day, but Qiu Sha Han Mo Li doesn't have a single wrinkle. This forty-year-old woman still maintains a good figure and her skin is still incredibly elastic.
"I really can't walk anymore!" After walking for half an hour, Qiu Sha Hanmoli finally refused to go any further. Several large blisters had formed on the soles of her feet, which were encased in delicate high heels. Even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain. Qiu Sha Hanmoli had never suffered like this before. So she simply sat down on the ground, took off her shoes, and gently rubbed her feet.
With a playful smile on his face, Kuroko walked over and picked up Qiusha Hanmeri. "Are you satisfied now?" As Qiusha Hanmeri nodded and smiled faintly, Kuroko strode towards Florence!
The next morning, Li Jia brought Long Suifeng and Ma Bin, who were no longer seriously injured, back to the Dragon Dance Association. The five elders, along with Xiaoyue, Angel, Xiaolong, and Li Jia, sat down in the council hall once again.
"The Dragon Dance Party's difficulties are about to pass! In the past six months, without Li Jia's help, I think we would have already given up. Today, I have a proposal! We would like to invite Li Jia to be the guest Dragon King of the Dragon Dance Party. What do you all think?" It was Uncle Liang who spoke. The five elders had already discussed this suggestion before making it, and only after they unanimously agreed did they put it forward to Li Jia.
The position of Guest Dragon King, which sits between the Dragon King and the Elder, is the first time this position has been proposed since the founding of the Dragon Dance Association. Amid the cheers of the crowd, Li Jia gently raised her hand, and the council hall immediately fell silent.
"Elders, let's not bring up these matters again. Xiaoyue is my own sister. The Dragon Dance Association is hers, no matter what. If the Dragon Dance Association is in trouble, I will not stand idly by. So, let's not talk about this anymore; it's pointless."
"Of course, I understand everyone's thoughts, but it's really unnecessary. Our ancestors didn't approve of things that are just for show, did they?" Li Jia said, then sat down with a smile. For a moment, a hint of disappointment couldn't be suppressed on the faces of Uncle Liang and the others.
"Uncles and elders, I have something I'd like to say to you all." Xiaoyue paused for a moment, then glanced at the other elders before continuing after receiving their permission. "The Dragon Dance Society has existed for over twenty years, even before I was born. It was all earned by the brothers of the Dragon Dance Society through their hard work and dedication."
"Now, the Dragon Dance Association has suffered such a great change just as I became a Dragon Maiden. Xiaoyue feels extremely guilty. Therefore, I have a request: I want to hand over the Dragon Dance Association to the elders, and I will focus on completing my studies. Of course, there is one condition: before I finish my studies, all of the Dragon Dance Association's assets must be transferred to a legitimate entity. What do you uncles and elders think?"
After Xiaoyue finished speaking, the elders fell into deep thought. Although what Xiaoyue said made sense, the Chinese people's habit of being modest still made the elders somewhat undecided, until Xiaoyue continued to speak.
"Uncles, I'm sincere. I have my own ideas. Before I finish my studies, all of Dragon Dance's businesses will be integrated into a new group called Dragon Dance Group. I have this idea, but Xiaoyue isn't capable of carrying it out right now, and I won't rely on my brother for everything. So, I'll leave the reform and integration of Dragon Dance to you uncles!" After Xiaoyue finished speaking, Long Suifeng nodded. "Good, Xiaomi's words make a lot of sense. Ultimately, we need to be in the open to develop better. I agree!"
