He cleared his throat, quickly switching back to the main topic, his eyes flashing with calculation, as if the tenderness from before was just an illusion.
"Ink Rose, just leave it like this for now..."
"Find an opportunity to contact Ye Chen and tell him that Qin Xiao has been severely injured by you, but you were also seriously injured by his last-ditch counterattack and are currently recuperating in a secluded place, unable to return to report for the time being."
"Tell him you need time to recover, and also time to find Qin Xiao's hiding place completely, so that he is convinced that you are still under control."
"Tell him to wait patiently, or if he can't wait and is eager to confirm whether I'm alive or dead, let him bring his own people to find me. It would be best if he brought more people."
"I'm going to knock out a few of his teeth first!"
Mo Meigui listened quietly, a complex light flashing in her eyes. This man was frighteningly bold, actually planning to set a trap and use himself as bait. His ruthlessness and scheming sent a chill down her spine.
Qin Xiao then added, "However, you should tell him a few days later. Don't be too hasty, or it will seem deliberate."
"I'm going to be in seclusion for the next few days to do some research."
He pointed to the empty factory buildings around him, "I'll need you to help me with security to prevent anyone from disturbing me."
Mo Meigui looked at him, and for the first time, she tried to draw up an extremely unskilled and stiff smile on her cold face. It was like a tiny crack on the ice, revealing a little bit of awkward warmth.

This Dragon King Palace is truly a place of wicked capitalists! They've exploited labor to this extent!
A top-tier professional like Mo Rose, skilled in assassination, intelligence gathering, and combat, is only worth three thousand yuan a month? That's even worse than the 996 work schedule!
He tried hard to suppress his smile, but his face showed a matter-of-fact expression, even with a hint of unquestionable generosity.
"I'll give you 100,000 a month."
"Because of your special status, you are not eligible for the five social insurances and one housing fund at the moment."
"However, room and board are included."
Qin Xiao looked at her, deliberately emphasizing his tone, and his eyes swept over her inconspicuously.
"Protect me closely."
An unusual blush crept silently onto Mo Meigui's fair cheeks once more, even her ears felt a little hot. She quickly lowered her head, avoiding Qin Xiao's gaze, and softly murmured an "Mmm," her voice barely audible.
"good."
A second later, as if she had remembered something important, she added in a low voice, with a hint of barely perceptible anticipation.
"Remember... the rice has to be from Wuchang, I like that."
