The other party seemed to sense Xie Linlin's gaze as well. The old man, dressed in a simple white robe and looking like a hermit, didn't react much. On the contrary, the little girl with a full head of blonde hair, who looked like a living doll, looked over the moment Xie Linlin saw them.
She smiled slightly at Xie Linlin.
Sweet and cute.
Xie Linlin forced a smile and nodded in greeting.
But her heart sank.
This combination...
It is the most dangerous.
This blonde girl in a wheelchair appears harmless on the surface, and you might even feel a pang of pity for her, given her young age and leg ailment.
But as the daughter of the Xie family, Xie Linlin naturally knew some secrets that ordinary people were unaware of.
The wheelchair was just a disguise; in reality, the blonde girl was a perfectly healthy person with all four limbs intact.
In this duo, the truly dangerous character isn't actually the old man who looks like a master.
It was this blonde loli.
"Before the Xia family fell, they had an extremely terrifying force under their command called the Four-Colored Roses. If I remember correctly... one of the roses was a killer named Blue Rose. She was the most terrifying assassin. No one knew what kind of terrifying heart was hidden beneath her petite body."
"But this girl... was already on par with Blue Rose back then. In terms of killing skills, she was no less than Blue Rose."
"The old man behind her should not be underestimated either... Many years ago, he was a person who held the title of 'Sword Saint'. Although he is old now, no one knows how strong he is now."
Xie Linlin patted her chest lightly. She knew the identities of all these people. Her eyes darkened slightly: "Sword and curse... the former sword saint Zhuang Zhuliu, and the curse... Lyman, the combination of East and West, old and young, light and darkness... huh."
Besides the people mentioned above, there were many other people with considerable reputations in all walks of life present, but there were simply too many for Xie Linlin to keep track of.
If I count roughly, there are at least ten people.
In terms of fame, any one of them here is probably more famous than me, the so-called daughter of the Xie family.
"They're all utterly wicked..."
Although Xie Linlin was reluctant to admit that she was one of them, now that she was on the pirate ship, there was no getting off.
only……
Were all these people used to deal with Xia Che?
Upon realizing this, Xie Linlin's lips twitched involuntarily.
Although she was reluctant to part with the matter, a gossipy thought did indeed arise in her mind.
What exactly did Xia Che do to that woman named Gemini that made her hate him so much?
They gathered so many people all at once, just to kill Xia Che...
Isn't this a serious offense?
Xie Linlin could see just how hard the twins were trying to kill Xia Che.
It could even be said that all the prominent figures in Jiang City's underworld, from the lowest rungs of society to the most shady characters, are currently in this villa.
They spent so much money just to kill a high school student...
"This world has truly gone mad."
Xie Linlin downed her cocktail in one gulp and nodded in deep agreement.
Just then.
"Tap, tap, tap—"
A series of heavy footsteps, like leather shoes clattering on the ground, came from the hallway in front of the living room.
Each strike resonated deeply in the hearts of everyone present.
In an instant, the once lively living room fell silent.
The boxing champion put down the dumbbells, Bubble closed the laptop, and Sword and Curse slowly walked over to the center of the living room.
"Have they arrived?"
Xie Linlin quickly put down her empty wine glass, looked around, and then stood up.
"Wouldn't it seem more sincere to greet them standing up than sitting down?"
Xie Linlin believed that she did not have the strength and level of the people present. She was probably the weakest one there, so naturally she could not sit freely like the others.
In this world, strength has always been the deciding factor...
Xie Linlin was aware of this.
Her advantage lies in her good looks, a face that even Geminis would agree on. Although praising someone's greatest strength as having a beautiful face has gradually become a derogatory term...
However, from a certain perspective, I have an advantage over the other professionals present.
At least when it comes to getting close to Xia Che, they all find it very difficult to do so and catch him off guard.
That's right...
This is my advantage.
Xie Linlin's mood, which had been somewhat down, lifted again.
Being invited here proves that I, like everyone else present, have the ability to harm Xia Che.
Although Xie Linlin didn't really want this ability...
"Ahem, please be quiet for a moment."
Bai Yuan took the lead, his gaze sweeping around the room.
Upon seeing the protagonist's entrance, the people in the living room who were usually so unruly outside all quieted down to give him face.
After all, everyone present knew just how terrifying the woman who had invited them here was.
"That's enough, Miss."
Bai Yuan nodded with satisfaction at the now quiet living room, then turned to the side and bowed respectfully to the person beside him.
"Um."
A faint response came from the quiet living room.
"Is she about to appear? Will she be shrouded in black mist like before... or will we be able to see her true face? That woman known as the Twins..."
Xie Linlin stood with her arms crossed on one side of the living room, her eyes filled with anticipation.
She really wanted to see what the person hiding under the black mist looked like.
Then, Xie Linlin saw a petite figure wrapped in a black robe walk out from behind Bai Yuan.
The person was wrapped up very tightly.
Although you can tell that the person is not very tall, and could even be described as petite, they are completely shrouded in a black robe, so you can't tell what they look like at all!
They couldn't even tell if it was a man or a woman...
Is it really necessary to wrap yourself up so tightly?
Did she ask?
"Well……"
Xie Linlin was petrified.
All right.
That's typical of that woman.
It seems that the plan to see the other party's true colors here is destined to fail.
Good evening, everyone.
The petite figure, completely shrouded in a black robe, slowly walked to the center of the living room. Throughout, Bai Yuan followed closely behind her, always half a step behind the twins.
"I am Gemini. Those who are here should be familiar with me, so... I won't waste time on a meaningless self-introduction."
"As for the purpose, I'm sure everyone knows it."
