Chapter 221 Luring the Enemy Deeper, His Biggest Regret



Cheng Xiao Kui looked up at the stars in the sky. There was a time when she almost thought she would never be able to get out again.

Song Jingchuan drove a Jeep with Cheng Xiaokui and Ye Feng in tow. Ye Feng's men followed behind in another Jeep.

Two jeeps drove one after the other to the outside of the fence of Cheng Xiaokui's backyard.

Everyone got out of the jeep, tiptoed, and walked toward the back window of Cheng Xiao Kui's house.

Ye Feng lowered his voice and said to Song Jingchuan, "What kind of path are you leading us to? What are we doing here?"

Song Jingchuan said, "Come here to meet Cheng Chunqiu! I saw the person who met with her last time! The person who met with her last time was the one who was talking to Cheng Chunqiu through the back window."

But that time I was tricked by Cheng Chun Kui! I wasn't sure if she was in the room, so I went to chase after the person she was meeting, but she rode past me on her bicycle, and my bike hit her.

She made up a reason, and I believed her! If I hadn't been so careless that time, perhaps everything would have been different.

Speaking of the last time, Song Jingchuan felt particularly regretful. He was so close to Wu Jianguo, yet he didn't recognize him.

The important thing is that Cheng Chunqiu put on a show in front of him, and he actually managed to fool her!

But now that Cheng Chunqiu's identity has been confirmed, he thinks back on the incident and realizes that the person standing by the back window must be Wu Jianguo, and he must be meeting with Cheng Chunqiu, not some thief!

Ye Feng said, "I never thought you'd get pecked in the eye by an eagle."

Song Jingchuan said, "This... is inevitable! It's just that the enemy is too cunning, and we are too kind!"

As they got closer to the back window of Cheng Xiaokui's house, everyone fell silent.

Song Jingchuan counted the back windows and knew that Cheng Chunqiu's room was next to Cheng Xiaokui's. He knocked on the glass window according to the code he had written in his codebook.

The code for the glass window is three short lines and one long line.

Cheng Chunqiu tossed and turned in her room, unable to fall asleep. The feeling was strange; there was the excitement of victory, but also the fear of the unknown.

Although she has escaped Wu Jianguo, her superior, the sovereign, is still around. Will the sovereign find her?

If His Majesty cannot find her, then everything will be perfect!

Just as she was thinking about her hopes for the future, she unexpectedly overheard the secret code.

She stared in astonishment, almost thinking she was hallucinating.

But the code sounded again, reminding her that she wasn't hallucinating.

Her face suddenly turned deathly pale; if the room hadn't been pitch black, her paleness would have been frightening.

She sat up and went to the back window, asking, "Who is it?"

Although it was only one word, her voice trembled uncontrollably.

A man's voice came from outside the window, "Your Majesty."

There were only two words, just two words, yet they were so overwhelming that Cheng Chun Kui couldn't even breathe.

Her mind was buzzing; she hadn't expected the emperor to find her so quickly.

It seemed the king hadn't heard her reply; a man's voice came again from outside the glass window, "Black Widow!"

Black Widow is Cheng Chun Kui's code name. The other party accurately stated her code name, so the other party must be the Lord.

Cheng Chunkui's eyes narrowed painfully. She had thought that once she got rid of Wu Jianguo, she could start a new life...

She bit her lip; only the pain kept her awake.

She forced herself to remain calm and asked in a strained voice, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

The man outside the window said, "Come to the place where you met Wild Fox."

Cheng Chun Kui leaned weakly against the wall, all the nerves in her brain had snapped.

The other party could accurately state their code names, including Wild Fox's code name, and knew the location where she and Wild Fox met. All her illusions were shattered.

She said, "Yes."

She used all her strength to give a single-word answer.

She leaned against the wall, listening to the sound of a man's footsteps fading into the distance outside the window.

Countless thoughts raced through her mind, and she couldn't grasp a single correct line of thought.

Why did the emperor come looking for us?

If the Emperor hadn't come, everything would have been perfect! The new life she longed for was right there within her reach!

If the emperor is not here...

The thought popped into her mind, and she couldn't suppress it any longer.

Cheng Chun Kui seemed to be instantly energized, jumping off the bed onto the floor. She opened a drawer, took out a fruit knife, and put it in her pocket.

This is the sharpest weapon she can find right now.

If the emperor is not here, then no one will know of her existence!

They are all connected by a single, direct line, so as long as her superiors and subordinates are cut off, she will always be Cheng Chun Kui!

With that thought in mind, she quickly got dressed and hurriedly went out the door.

Everything proceeded according to the original route, and she arrived at the meeting point at the intersection with ease.

The man's figure was hidden in the shadow of the big tree. He only stepped out of the tree's shade when he heard her footsteps.

She could only vaguely see a glimpse of the man.

She said, "Your Majesty, you wanted to see me?"

The man said, "Why did Wild Fox die? You were there! I heard you covered his mouth!"

Cheng Chun Kui said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, it was I who covered the fox's mouth. It was because he failed his mission and was discovered by the neighbors. The neighbors rushed in to arrest him, and I was afraid he would say something inappropriate, so I covered his mouth."

Moreover, as Song Wenhui's daughter, and with the neighbors present, I couldn't remain completely silent. I had to act like a daughter to avoid arousing suspicion.

But I never expected him to die of a heart attack! Perhaps he was too nervous after committing the murder.

She found a plausible reason for the fox's death.

The man sneered and said, "Heart disease? Wild Fox doesn't have heart disease at all. One of the drugs I give you will induce heart disease."

"You're the one who put this drug in his mouth, aren't you?! Black Widow, you've got some nerve, daring to kill your own superior. What are you trying to do?!"

Cheng Chun Kui's body trembled slightly uncontrollably, but she quickly calmed herself down.

She said, word by word, "Lord Jun, if you insist that I drugged him, then there's nothing I can do. You have no evidence that I drugged him, and neither do I. I didn't give him any important evidence."

Your Majesty, you are my superior, so you can say whatever you want. However, I'm still trying to stay at Cheng Xiao Kui's house to complete our mission.

"Song Wenhui is dead. No one will doubt my identity anymore. As long as I want to stay here, I can stay here forever and steal all the information you want for His Majesty!"

Now, all she can do is use her own value to remind the emperor that she still has some use to her!

The man sneered and said, "You're right, Song Wenhui is dead, and no one can doubt your identity anymore. So you had Wild Fox kill Song Wenhui! And you killed Wild Fox to silence him! Right?!"

Cheng Chun Kui's lips pressed into a straight line as she said, "Wild Fox has already been exposed and seen by the neighbors, but I haven't been exposed. To His Majesty, I am the most useful!"
