Jiang Nian never expected that the first thing the man did after being pulled back from the brink of death was to ask her for a kiss.
Although he had just escaped danger and his face was still pale, his dark and deep eyes revealed tender affection.
They don't care about the time, place, or occasion at all.
If you want it, just do it.
That's definitely his style.
Free-spirited, lazy and alluring, even a little crazy.
Seeing Si Boye's appearance, Jiang Nian knew he was alright, and finally relaxed.
He frowned and got down to business: "What exactly happened tonight? Do you know who attacked you?"
Si Boye didn't speak, but blinked.
Jiang Nian took a deep breath.
There's a feeling of helplessness when dealing with the person in front of you.
She pursed her lips, leaned closer, and gave the man a light, quick kiss on the lips before standing up.
The man looked dissatisfied: "...Not enough."
Not enough? What else would be enough?
He frowned and said, "You're not good enough now."
?
Don't you know that saying a man is impotent is the biggest taboo?
Si Boye's eyes narrowed dangerously in an instant.
The next second, he used his large hand to stroke the back of the girl's head and gave her a deep kiss.
Jiang Nian noticed out of the corner of her eye that the man's movements had aggravated his wounds, and blood was seeping through the gauze on his abdomen. She felt an urge to beat him up.
They're absolutely insane.
very nice.
Si Boye's wound was being torn open, and it was actually very painful, but looking at the girl in front of him made him feel no pain.
In the last second before he was shot and lost consciousness in the car accident, all he could think about was that he wasn't afraid of dying, but he was afraid of never seeing her again.
Only when he kissed the lips of his beloved again did his soul seem to find a place of peace.
Satisfied, Si Boye then got down to business.
“I don’t know who wants to kill me. The Si family has been going through a clean break all these years and no longer gets involved in underworld affairs.”
"The only time I had a falling out was with those people from Southeast Asia, but I wiped out almost all of their forces, and the survivors didn't amount to much."
"I'll have someone investigate, you don't need to worry,"
As he spoke, Si Boye narrowed his eyes, revealing a bloodthirsty ferocity he had never shown to the girl before. "Such an accident will not happen again."
Jiang Nian knew that Si Boye was not a good person.
To some extent, what the old man Ji said the first time was not wrong.
She and Si Boye do have quite similar personalities.
I never believe in settling disputes peacefully or repaying evil with kindness.
I only believe in reciprocity, in blood for blood.
Since Si Boye said he would investigate, Jiang Nian felt relieved.
She believed that with Si Boye's power, as long as the other party left any trace, they would definitely be able to find them.
However, as she straightened up, she caught a glimpse of the bloody bullet that had been removed from Si Boye's body out of the corner of her eye.
His pupils contracted.
My first reaction was that I must have misread it.
The bullet had a capital L on its tip.
These bullets, marked with the letter L, come from a hidden arms manufacturing plant.
In an instant, a thought flashed through Jiang Nian's mind.
Shenyin was an underground empire founded by Lu Zhaokun. After Lu Zhaokun's death, before she left, she had already reached an agreement with the second-in-command, who was being courted and wanted to seize power.
She has no intention of becoming the heir, nor is she interested in anything related to Shenyin. Therefore, she will leave, and the other party should not disturb her life.
Lu Zhaokun left her with many things; if she didn't leave, it would result in a life-or-death struggle for power. Her willingness to withdraw naturally delighted him.
He would not provoke her unnecessarily, lest he create trouble for himself.
But now, this bullet has appeared here.
It was a coincidence that the people who came to kill Si Boye happened to use bullets produced by Shenyin.
Or is someone watching her from the shadows?
But if they were targeting her, why would they target Si Boye?
Si Boye is not someone to be trifled with. Are the people who have gone into hiding trying to get themselves into trouble?

Across the ocean.
The subordinate cautiously reported to the man in the wheelchair who was now hidden in the shadows.
"Sir, Miss learned that the man had been shot and used your private plane, which you left in Beijing, to fly directly back to Jiangcheng."
"According to our people, the shot didn't hit any vital organs, so the man shouldn't die."
Did they use his plane?
Lu Zhaokun slowly opened his eyes.
With her stubborn nature, she didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. Yet, for a man she had only known for half a month, she was willing to break her principles.
It seems this man is more important to her than she thought.
"Sir, I don't quite understand."
His subordinate carefully chose his words before speaking.
"I don't understand why you ignored the Mellon family's youngest daughter who led the young lady into the tiger enclosure and tried to kill her with the tigers, but instead sent someone to assassinate that man."
"That man seems to like you very much, and he won't cause you any harm."
Lu Zhaokun waved his hand, signaling his men to leave.
The girl was his rose, whom he had raised himself.
He knew she could handle enemies, even those lurking in the shadows. Having formidable enemies wasn't a bad thing; it would only hone her skills and make her stronger.
But that man became her weakness so quickly.
If you don't remove her in time, she will only get more and more involved.

Outside the operating room.
“Aunt, we can’t let this go on. She says she can wake my cousin up, but how can acupuncture cure a brain hemorrhage?”
"That girl's actions might not only fail to cure my cousin, but also delay his treatment. I'll call her out right now!"
As she spoke, Zhou Qinya walked toward the operating room.
She, a top student from Tsinghua University's medical school, didn't even get a chance to perform, yet a high school student is playing the role of a miracle doctor in front of her. What a pretentious act.
I reached out to open the door, only to find it locked from the inside and I couldn't open it.
"What the hell..."
Zhou Qinya grew impatient and banged on the door, shouting, "Hey, Jiang Nian inside, do you know what the consequences will be if you cause any harm to my cousin? You'll be going to jail, I'm telling you."
The next second, the operating room door was flung open.
"Who are you saying wants to go to jail?"
Jiang Nian suddenly looked over.
Zhou Qinya's hand was still in mid-air when she was stunned into silence.
The man being helped out beside the girl in front of her, is that her cousin?
Si Boye raised his head, his face showing signs of weakness and paleness, yet still handsome and dazzling.
His hospital gown was open, revealing glimpses of his chest muscles, and his lean waist was wrapped in several layers of gauze. He gave her a cold, sweeping glance: "...Who are you talking to?"
Zhou Qinya shivered involuntarily.
"Bo Ye, you're awake?"
Madam Si screamed and wept with joy.
The next second, she realized what was happening and could hardly believe it: "...It really was Jiang Nian who saved you? It really was her who gave you a few acupuncture needles and woke you up?"
