The man took the document and began to read it carefully. His eyes were focused and determined, as if he had already seen the moment of mission success. Xu Zhixu sat quietly beside him, waiting for the man's reaction.
After a while, the man raised his head, looked at Xu Zhixu, and said, "I will do my best to complete this mission. But you also need to understand that the success of this mission depends not only on my ability, but also on the perfection of your plan."
Xu Zhixu nodded in understanding. He knew the risks and responsibilities he would have to bear, but he also understood that he had to give it his all. He took out a bank card and placed it on the table. "This is the deposit. I'll pay the balance after the mission is completed."
The man didn't say anything, but quietly put away his bank card. He stood up and extended his hand: "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Xu Zhixu also extended his hand and shook the man's hand: "It's a pleasure to work with you."
After they separated, Xu Zhixu felt even more nervous and excited. He knew this mission would change his life, but he also understood that he had to face this challenge. He returned to his residence and began to make final preparations for the mission.
Over the next few days, the collaboration between Xu Zhixu and the assassin began. They maintained close contact via phone calls and text messages, exchanging information on the mission's progress. Xu Zhixu provided the assassin with information about the target's whereabouts and daily habits, and the assassin, based on this information, developed a plan of action.
During this process, Xu Zhixu felt unprecedented pressure. Every decision he made could affect the success or failure of the mission, and could even change his life. But he also understood that this was a challenge he had to face and he couldn't back down.
The night before the operation, the killer called Xu Zhixu and said, "We will operate tomorrow morning. Please be ready for the response."
Xu Zhixu was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, then replied, "Okay, I'll be ready."

The villa was spacious and bright, with sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto the pale yellow walls, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Shen Yuan stood in the garden, watering the flowers with a watering can, intently watering them. Her eyes were focused and gentle, as if she were communicating with the flowers, listening to their thoughts.
The flowers in the garden were diverse, vibrant, and fragrant. Shen Yuan meticulously tended each plant, watering, fertilizing, and pruning, each movement gentle and skillful. Her demeanor was calm and elegant, as if she had become one with the garden, a beautiful sight.
Lately, Shen Yuan has been feeling like someone is staring at her. She wasn't sure if this feeling was real or an illusion, but she felt a little uncomfortable. She raised her head and looked into the distance, but didn't see anything unusual. She rubbed her eyes and reassured herself.
"Maybe I haven't slept well recently and I'm hallucinating." Shen Yuan said to himself.
She put down the watering can and walked to another corner of the garden to admire the flowers. The flowers in the garden competed with each other in beauty, some in full bloom, some in bud, each with its own unique beauty. Shen Yuan was intoxicated by the fragrance of the flowers, forgetting everything around her.
Suddenly, she felt a chill. She looked up and saw a light rain falling from the sky. The raindrops gently hit the petals, making a crisp sound.
The rain began to get heavier. Shen Yuan frowned unconsciously, knowing that the rain might last for a long time. She quickly walked into the house and closed the doors and windows.
The air in the room seemed to become somewhat oppressive. Shen Yuan stood in front of the window, watching the rain flow down the glass, forming streaks of water. Her mood also became somewhat heavy, as if all her troubles were washed away by the rain, making her feel extremely exhausted.
She stood quietly by the window, listening to the sound of rain and feeling the coolness it brought. There was no expression on her face, she just stared at the rain outside the window silently.
After a while, the rain finally stopped. Shen Yuan walked out of the house and came to the garden again.
The flowers in the garden become more beautiful and emit a richer fragrance after being washed by the rain.
Shen Yuan took a deep breath and felt his mood become relaxed.
She approached the flower and gently stroked the petals, feeling their soft texture and delicate touch. A smile appeared on her face, as if all her troubles had been washed away by the rain.
She strolled through the garden, admiring the beautiful flowers, her steps light and graceful, as if she were one with nature.
Her face was filled with a happy smile, as if she felt the beauty and infinite possibilities of life.
Surrounded by a tranquil green, fresh air filled every corner of the garden. Shen Yuan walked slowly along the winding path, each step as light as a feather.
The sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves onto her body, casting a golden halo on her. Her eyes sparkled brightly, as if she was appreciating the beauty of the world.
The flowers in the garden are vying for beauty and colorful.
Shen Yuan approached a blooming rose and gently stroked the petals. The delicate touch made her feel extremely comfortable. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if she could feel the fragrance of the flower and the power of life.
She stayed in the garden for a long time, enjoying the tranquility and beauty. Her soul was soothed by nature, and all her worries and fatigue disappeared without a trace.
She felt as if she were one with the garden, a part of nature.
"Madam, it just rained and the weather is a bit cold. Why don't you go back to the house? Be careful not to catch a cold." The housekeeper came over with concern.
Chen Yuan raised her head and saw the figure of the housekeeper. She smiled and nodded, "Okay, I feel a little tired too. I haven't been sleeping well lately. I want to have a good sleep."
"Madam, do you need some calming incense?" the housekeeper asked considerately.
"Okay, thank you for your help." Chen Yuan said.
The butler smiled slightly and said, "It's not a big deal. As long as Madam sleeps well, that's good." He turned and left, leaving behind a wisp of soothing incense smoke lingering in the air.
Shen Yuan walked slowly into the house, her steps still light and graceful. When she entered the room, a warm air hit her face.
She closed the door softly and walked slowly towards the bed, her body eager to sink into the soft mattress and rest.
She took off her shoes and lay down gently on the bed. The soft mattress made her feel as if she were surrounded by clouds.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. Her mind began to relax, and all the fatigue and tension disappeared without a trace with this breath.
