The survival rules in assassin organizations are cruel and ruthless. It's not about who cries and gets the spoils; it's about who is strong and outstanding to survive and be recognized by the organization.
In her memory, Feng Zhiyi couldn't recall how many times she had been whipped, how many times she had been physically punished by the instructors, or even how many times she had been locked in a dark room.
The dark room there is different from the dark rooms in other places, because it not only contains ferocious beasts, snakes, and scorpions, but also countless mutated rats.
If you want to survive, you must find a way to eliminate everything inside, and you must do so quickly, otherwise you will only face certain death.
Even now, when Feng Zhiyi recalls her childhood in her previous life, she still feels lingering fear.
Lu Lingxiao pinched her nose and said with heartache, "What do I care about? I only regret that I didn't meet you sooner! If I had met you sooner, you wouldn't have had to suffer so much."
The man's simple yet gentle words warmed Feng Zhiyi's heart, and at the same time, the slight unease in her heart gradually subsided.
At this moment, what she needed most was to tell the truth, and Lu Lingxiao's genuine reaction put her at ease.
"Lu Lingxiao, you're so kind!"
Feng Zhiyi smiled sweetly at him, then sighed, "What I'm most thankful for is agreeing to marry you in exchange for Feng Qiulan. I have you, my parents, Ziheng, Ningning, and Zirui. I'm very happy now!"
"I am very happy too!"
Lu Lingxiao's tone was resolute, "Zhizhi, thank you for being willing to marry me! I think it must be because I accumulated a lot of good karma in my past life that I was able to marry such a wonderful wife as you in this life!"
"So you have to treat me well, otherwise..."
Before Feng Zhiyi could finish her sentence, Lu Lingxiao sealed her lips with a kiss, but he only gave her a light peck before reluctantly pulling away.
He held Feng Zhiyi's hand, their fingers intertwined, and said, "No, my dear wife, I've said it before, I'm determined to stay with you for all eternity, and I'll stay by your side so that you can only be my wife in every lifetime!"
She has a very sweet tongue, but is also extremely domineering.
But every sweet word the man uttered struck a chord with Feng Zhiyi.
She reached out and tapped his chin, noticing that his stubble was prickly after not being home for a few days. "Have you been too busy to rest these past few days? Look at your stubble."
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao couldn't help but curl his lips. "It was tiring, but the result was good and very satisfactory. A lot of things were extracted from the interrogation, and the treasures found in the homes of various officials filled about two hundred military trucks."
"so much?"
Feng Zhiyi raised an eyebrow, surprised that those officials who acted as spies were all actually hidden millionaires.
But on second thought, it didn't seem strange anymore.
Because many things in this world are different from the China she lived in in her previous life. Although a few things happened in the early years, the situation is much better than in China in the 1960s.
Lu Lingxiao nodded, then asked Feng Zhiyi, "By the way, wife, you just said that you turned down the recommendation from Elder Yun to study at Peking University. Can you tell me the specific reasons?"
He wanted to know if Elder Yun only suspected Feng Zhiyi's identity, or if he also suspected her of possessing treasures.
Feng Zhiyi slowly said, "Have you ever heard of a metaphysical master? Just like the feng shui masters in Hong Kong, they can read feng shui and face reading. I suspect that Master Yun is a metaphysical master, and his skills are very profound!"
“I know that, because the special groups in Country Z are made up of all sorts of extraordinary people, and there are metaphysicians in the special groups. But Elder Yun... this is the first time I’ve heard that he knows metaphysics.”
Lu Lingxiao frowned, somewhat surprised that Elder Yun was actually a master of metaphysics.
Feng Zhiyi smoothed his brow and continued, "After leaving the hospital that day, I went house hunting with my parents and godmother. I bought a six-courtyard siheyuan from Old Yun, right next to the Forbidden City. At the time, he said some strange things to my parents..."
She recounted the situation at that time, the expression on Old Yun's face when he looked at her, and the words Old Yun said to Mr. and Mrs. Lu. Although some of the words were simplified by her, Lu Lingxiao, who was smart, understood the meaning of Feng Zhiyi's words as soon as he heard them.
Lu Lingxiao was silent for a moment before speaking. His tone was no longer playful and joking, but serious and earnest. "So, you suspect that Elder Yun saw through your origins and knew that your body hadn't changed, but your inner self had?"
Just like the doubts he had in his heart at the beginning.
At the time, he also suspected that Feng Zhiyi had been replaced with a different soul.
“Yes!” Feng Zhiyi nodded. “He should know that my soul comes from another world.”
"Moreover, because of my arrival and because I married you, the fate of your Lu family seems to have changed in some ways, which is why he specifically instructed Mom and Dad to make sure you treat me well."
"Did he notice that you have treasures on you and can freely take things?" Thinking of Elder Yun's abilities, Lu Lingxiao's heart suddenly panicked.
He didn't want anything to happen to his wife.
If Elder Yun realized that Feng Zhiyi possessed a treasure, then he...
Just as Lu Lingxiao was contemplating the worst-case scenario, the tip of his nose was pinched.
Then he heard the girl's clear voice, "What nonsense are you thinking? My lotus space is integrated with my soul. Even if Elder Yun is powerful, he can't see through it."
As she spoke, she patted Lu Lingxiao on the shoulder to reassure him, "Don't worry, he only saw through my background, nothing else."
Unless she reveals it herself, Elder Yun will not be able to detect it.
In her previous life, she stayed in the organization for twenty-two years without her space being exposed, which shows that although people who understand metaphysics are powerful, they cannot see through everything.
"That's good, that's good. That just now really scared me."
Lu Lingxiao let out a long breath, still shaken, and then he instructed Feng Zhiyi, "Wife, you should use your space as little as possible when you're out in the future. Even if you absolutely have to use it, you must be extremely careful, understand?"
"Okay, I understand!"
Feng Zhiyi smiled sweetly, pleased with his reaction. It seemed that every time, he thought about her safety, rather than capturing her, dismembering her, and then taking over her space.
"Come on! I'll show you my space!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxiao's starry eyes lit up. Just as he was about to say something, Feng Zhiyi pulled him away and they disappeared into the bedroom.
