Seeing Wang Hao's serious expression, Zhou Mi opened her mouth for a long time before finally nodding slightly.
She didn't say anything more, and the two of them went directly to a nearby house according to the list in Zhou Mi's hand.
...
Over the years, Zhou Mi has worked for Xiao Wenyong and killed quite a few people.
From the first time Zhou Mi took action for Xiao Wenyong until now, in the past six years, she has killed no fewer than twenty important figures.
If we include ordinary people, the number becomes countless.
The two of them had just arrived at the Wu family, a relatively well-known family in the northern part of the Dragon Kingdom!
The Wu family has produced many famous generals in the north, making them one of the more well-known families in the history of the Dragon Kingdom.
Although the Wu family has declined somewhat in recent years, the previous head of the family, Wu Liang, was a well-known official in northern China and was someone Xiao Rujun trusted very much.
However, just over five years ago, when Zhou Mi had just started working for Xiao Wenyong, she was assigned to assassinate Wu Liang!
After Wu Liang's death, the entire Wu family fell into utter despair.
Those who were once enemies of the Wu family flocked to them, wanting to completely divide the Wu family.
The entire Wu family suffered countless deaths and injuries!
It can be said that Zhou Mi's killing of Wu Liang back then directly caused the Wu family to go from a first-tier family to a third-tier family.
The Wu family was even forced to relocate from the metropolis to a county town, which was how they managed to preserve their remaining bloodline.
It can be said that it was Zhou Mi's killing of Wu Liang back then that led to the Wu family's current decline.
At this moment, Wang Hao and Zhou Mi arrived in the county town and went to a relatively prosperous area, where they saw a small villa area.
In the county town, there are very few people who can afford to live in a villa of this size.
This villa area only has four detached villas, none of which are particularly large. They are nestled against the mountains and by the water, and the environment is quite nice, making it very suitable for retirement.
But if you're asking whether you can do business here or make any contribution to the family's development, that's pure nonsense.
As the two arrived, there were quite a few people walking around the villa.
However, they were not important figures, but rather some young people from the Wu family, who were playing and fooling around.
For these children, their lives and destinies were completely changed by Wu Liang's death.
In the past, when they reached this age, they might have been studying abroad to further their education and experience the sights of the world.
But now, they can only play and frolic in the county town like ordinary children.
The only difference is that they don't have to care about their future anymore, right?
After all, no matter how down on their luck the Wu family was, they still had some money that could ensure they would live a life free from financial worries.
Standing near the Wu family villa, Zhou Mi looked at these people with a somewhat complicated expression.
Wang Hao, on the other hand, grabbed Zhou Mi's hand, nodded to her, and then led her inside.
As the two went inside, the people inside also saw them.
A middle-aged woman slowly walked out, looked at Zhou Mi with a hint of doubt in her eyes, and couldn't help but speak in a low voice.
Who are you?
The middle-aged woman's eyes were full of doubt as she spoke.
In her opinion, a top beauty like Zhou Mi wouldn't easily come to a small county like the one where the Wu family lived.
To put it bluntly...
Given the Wu family's current status, none of the men in the Wu family are worthy of having a top beauty like Zhou Mi as their wife!
Under such circumstances, Zhou Mi's arrival naturally puzzled her.
Looking at the middle-aged woman, Zhou Mi took a deep breath before stepping forward and bowing.
"Hello, I'd like to ask who's currently in charge of the Wu family? I'd like to meet him."
"To see the person in charge of our Wu family?" The woman was taken aback, her brows furrowing slightly as she asked with some confusion, "What do you want with him?"
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman also felt a sense of unease.
After all, the sudden arrival of a beauty like Zhou Mi, with such an attitude, was truly perplexing to her.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mi gave a bitter laugh, her voice tinged with bitterness.
"I...I'm here to apologize."
"Apologize?"
The middle-aged woman looked puzzled.
Zhou Mi took a deep breath, forcibly calming herself down, before speaking again in a low voice.
"More than five years ago, I killed Wu Liang!"
"What!"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman immediately took several steps back, her eyes filled with fear and unease!
Clearly, she never dreamed that the person in front of her would have such a identity!
"What...what are you doing here?"
The middle-aged woman was pale and could barely speak.
Zhou Mi gave a wry smile and said in a low voice, "I'm here to apologize..."
"No...get away from me! Leave the villa! Go away!"
The middle-aged woman couldn't help but scream out loud, her voice filled with heart-wrenching pain, her eyes brimming with panic and unease.
After all, the pain Zhou Mi caused the Wu family back then was just too great.
The entire Wu family was ruined by Zhou Mi!
Under such circumstances, what right does she, a mere woman, have to face Zhou Mi here?
Zhou Mi seemed somewhat helpless, but she didn't say much. Instead, she pulled Wang Hao back to the outside of the Wu family villa before speaking again.
"Sister, I really came to apologize."
"Should you call over the person in charge of the Wu family now?"
"You...do you want to kill him?"
The woman's voice carried a hint of fear.
Clearly, this is exactly what she was worried about.
After all, if she were to bring about a new crisis for the Wu family by summoning the Wu family's steward, she would be the sinner of the entire Wu family!
Seeing the middle-aged woman's uneasy expression, Zhou Mi couldn't help but smile wryly, "Sister, if I really wanted to deal with the Wu family... I could destroy them in the blink of an eye, why bother with all this trouble?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman's expression froze on her face.
Despite her deep resentment, she had to admit that what Zhou Mi said was true!
Just like back then!
At that time, Zhou Mi easily killed Wu Liang, bringing the entire Wu family to the brink of destruction!
If Zhou Mi really wanted to destroy the Wu family, she could have simply killed a few more people along the way.
Why go through all this trouble? Five years have passed, and you still have to come here and beg her to let you know?
Looking at Zhou Mi, the middle-aged woman spoke in a deep voice after a brief silence.
"Wait a moment, let me ask."
During the conversation, the middle-aged woman didn't even dare to make the call in front of Zhou Mi. Instead, she went to the house and dialed the number.
Upon hearing her story, a cold voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
"That woman dares to come over? She has some nerve!"
I'm going back right now!
I want to see what she has to say!
