Chapter 269
On the other side, the Ye family.
The girl in the white dress from that day has changed into a very light outfit today, and her waist-length hair has been cut short and styled.
At that moment, she and another girl were standing in front of a group of people.
The two did not exchange words, and the group of people behind them, also dressed casually, remained silent.
They only reacted when a man and another foreign woman appeared, bowing their heads to the two of them.
The foreign woman's pronunciation was surprisingly standard: "The organization raised you all, and now it's time to use you. She doesn't have much protection right now, and once she returns to base, we'll never have another chance!"
"You must bring her back at all costs, but if anything goes wrong, you must kill her on the spot!" she coldly ordered.
"yes!"
The foreign woman's gaze lingered for a moment on the woman in the white dress and another girl at the front, before she finally looked away with great trust.
After they left, the man, who hadn't spoken until now, anxiously stood up and eagerly asked the foreign woman, "Did the higher-ups say what we should do if this plan fails?"
Seeing the expectation in his eyes, the foreign woman scoffed, "If you fail, you're doomed. What else can you do?"
Upon hearing the word "death," the man's expectant expression froze, gradually turning into terror.
"Why the sudden rush? Not long ago, the assassination attempt on the top leader failed, and so many of our forces were wiped out. Now, we're the only ones left. Why not take a break for a while and lie low? Maybe, just maybe, we'll still have a chance!" He tried to use these words to change the foreign woman's mind.
"Hibernation? I quite like that word from you Chinese." The foreign woman raised an eyebrow, but her smile vanished instantly, replaced by a chilling aura. "But you have to be able to hibernate properly first!"
"She's only been around for six years, and look how much progress China has made! Should we give her more time to continue contributing to China? Or should we let her transform China into an impregnable fortress, so that not even a mosquito can get in?"
Moreover, they're already at their wits' end; otherwise, why would they be so reckless?
Hearing her mocking remark about "you Chinese," the man's face, which had been filled with anger, froze for a moment.
If he had known it would develop this fast, he would never have gotten on this pirate ship!
Now that the boat can't go down, there's a huge wave ahead, and this thatched boat still wants to go in. Isn't that just courting death?
"Those who are impatient for quick success will only end up dead." After thinking it over, he sneered, "Die! Let's all die together! You can't escape either!"
The foreign woman put on her communication device without getting angry at his words. She just glanced at him out of the corner of her eye after she finished putting it on, her heart filled with disdain.
Fool, she didn't betray her country. How could her country abandon her?
Thinking of this, she coldly withdrew her gaze.
She would wait a little longer; if she could capture the doctor alive, all the better. If not, she would quickly withdraw from China.
Once she left, the man slumped into his chair, his face ashen, gasping for breath.
He was not capable, came from a humble background, had no education, and was not particularly intelligent; he was simply lucky to be secretly supported by this group of people and become an entrepreneur.
Despite his glamorous appearance, he actually had no right to interfere in the company and his real power was not even as great as that of the newly emerging Ye family!
If I had known he was hiding in Wanyue Village, at least he would still be alive!
If Ling Wu were here, she would find this man's appearance very familiar.
——
The woman in the white dress, stepping out of the Ye family's meeting room, raised an eyebrow at another young girl. Her delicate appearance made this provocative gesture seem quite incongruous.
"Sister, you have to survive!" she said with a sweet laugh, covering her lips.
The girl who was called "sister" ignored her.
Seeing this, the woman in the white dress crossed her arms, a sly glint in her eyes, and said, "Hey! Zhang Pandi!"
The girl glanced at the woman in the white dress coldly when she heard her call out her name from many years ago. The chilling look in her eyes made the woman in the white dress shrink back.
The woman in the white dress pursed her lips but didn't dare to say another word.
Zhang Pandi... no, she should now be called Ye Lan, spoke up: "Ye Shanshan."
Ye Shanshan snorted, "What? Didn't you tell me not to speak? Besides, that's just the name of the second young lady of the Ye family, not my real name. By the way, what's my real name again? Do you remember?"
Ye Lan didn't answer, but stared at her for a moment before putting on her gear and preparing to leave.
Seeing this, Ye Shanshan lowered her head, her eyelashes casting a shadow under her eyes, and she said inexplicably, "I saw it last night."
Ye Lan's hand landed on the gun, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Ye Shanshan gave a slight smile. "But I didn't say anything."
Ye Lan looked up at her, making sure she wasn't lying, before turning to leave. But after only a couple of steps, she paused, turned back, and told her, "Live well."
Ye Shanshan, who remained where she was, trembled slightly, then silently looked down at the gun in her hand and uttered a soft "hmm."
——
It was a cloudy day, and the luxury car drove very smoothly on the road.
"Xiao Wu, we're almost there. The grasslands here are especially beautiful in spring; when the wind blows, they look like waves of wheat. I remember when we were little, we would run and play in the wheat fields, and the adults would say we were wasting food. Back then, Sister Pandi even got a beating from her grandma," Du Yue said.
If anyone else were present, their mouth would twitch wildly and their expression would be bizarre.
Because in public, Mr. Du would never blush and talk about his childhood anecdotes with such joy.
"Pandi?" Lingwu murmured, "Did she get into university later?"
Du Yue nodded, "She passed the exam. I even asked Sister Pandi which school she wanted to apply to, and she said she wanted to apply to a police academy so that she could protect everyone and other girls in the future."
Thinking of this, Du Yue paused, his brow furrowing slightly. "But after that, I never heard from Sister Di again."
"No more news?" Ling Wu tapped her fingertip.
She knew Zhang Pandi's personality. Although her family beat and scolded her, she was definitely not the kind of person who would forget her childhood playmates once she gained glory.
With a thought, Ling Wu received the information about the Jinghong Brush in her divine consciousness, which also included the information about all the friends in Wanyue Village.
After seeing everything, Ling Wu closed her eyes slightly, and when she opened them again, she glanced out the window.
Zhang Pandi got an undercover job as soon as she entered the police academy because of her bad background and clean resume. I don't know how much hardship she has endured over the years to get to that position.
Moreover, she played an indispensable role in obtaining this intelligence.
It's a cloudy day today, and the sky outside the car window is quite dark. It's going to rain later.
Old friends meet, but the rain continues.
Watching the raindrops fall gently, Du Yue twitched the corner of his mouth.
This is wonderful, damn God!
I finally had a chance to spend time alone with Xiao Wu, but it rained!
However, thinking about what would happen today, he became serious.
He will definitely protect Xiao Wu.
After getting off the bus, the grassland that came into view was indeed exactly as Du Yue had described, but unfortunately, the rain was too heavy to go any further.
Even more unfortunately, a group of shady characters were hiding in the meadow.
A red dot shot out from afar and landed directly on Lingwu's brow.
Du Yue was originally excited and ready to recite the tour guide script he had memorized all night, but when he turned his head and saw the red dot between Ling Wu's eyebrows, his pupils suddenly contracted!
This is……
His actions were faster than his thoughts; almost instantly, he stepped forward to block Ling Wu's path.
"Bang—" The sound of a sniper shot could still be clearly heard even in the rain.
