Jian Yixue's eyes were firm, and she showed no sign of backing down.
Seeing Jian Yixue's attitude, Ye Mohan knew there was no room for negotiation and had no choice but to agree.
After Ye Mohan and the others left, Jian Yixue followed them out of the villa with two bodyguards in black.
Looking at the two walking light bulbs behind her, Jian Yixue couldn't help but feel a headache coming on; it would be difficult to keep a low profile now.
Jian Yixue walked out of the villa, got into the car that Ye Mohan had arranged for her, and headed towards the agreed-upon location.
——
"Original Intention" Private Coffee Shop.
This café in St Namershire caters exclusively to the wealthy and elite. It offers all the world's most prestigious coffees, and a single visit can easily cost millions, yet these are considered entry-level options.
Jian Yixue's car stopped in front of the coffee shop. Her bodyguard got out of the car in advance and stood respectfully by the door to open the car door for her.
Jian Yixue, who was about to get out of the car, paused, suddenly realizing that she shouldn't have been so soft-hearted as to agree to Ye Mohan's request to bring bodyguards out.
If someone saw her like this, they'd probably say something about her.
Fortunately, she found this private coffee shop with good privacy in advance. It was morning, so there weren't many customers at this time, and there were hardly any people passing by.
After quickly getting out of the car, Jian Yixue told her bodyguard to wait for her at the door before walking into the coffee shop.
The receptionist at the coffee shop greeted me with a smile: "Do you have a reservation?"
Jane nodded and told the waiter the reservation information.
The waiter immediately understood and led Jian Yixue upstairs to a private room, introducing the coffee shop and coffee to her from time to time with extreme politeness.
He would glance at Jian Yixue after saying a few words to see if she was displeased, his ability to read people's expressions was exceptional.
Those who can work here have all passed extremely rigorous assessments to be hired, and their service is naturally among the best in the industry.
Inside the private room, Luo Zhuju and her two companions were leisurely enjoying various kinds of expensive coffee.
A woman in a white embroidered cheongsam elegantly picked up the coffee in front of her and savored it with the same grace as when sipping tea.
"Yes, it is indeed a purebred civet cat."
"Sister Luo, is it really genuine?"
A woman with short hair, dressed in a black leather jacket and pants, standing next to Youluo asked earnestly.
Youluo nodded, looking at the short-haired woman with displeasure, seemingly dissatisfied with her questioning of her.
Do you think I would use my expertise to deceive you?
"Sister Luo, don't be angry. I was just asking. How could I be questioning your expertise? Everyone in the organization knows that Sister Luo is unparalleled in tasting tea, wine, and coffee."
The short-haired woman was adept at flattery, suggesting she was a repeat offender and this wasn't the first time she'd encountered something like this.
His gaze never left Youluo as he spoke, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her sipping her coffee.
"I also have to try it out and see what this civet coffee, which is said to be the number one most expensive coffee in the world, tastes like."
Then, with a look of anticipation on her face, she carefully picked up the coffee in front of her and began to taste it, imitating Youluo's manner.
The man who had been silently watching the exchange between the two had long been accustomed to it.
Youluo is fine in any way, but she cannot tolerate others questioning her ability to judge things.
Seeing that the two were alright, he looked away and immersed himself in the taste alone.
"Pfft~~~ It's so bitter."
The short-haired woman, with a pained expression, put down her coffee with disgust and pushed it far away.
"Why didn't you tell me that civet coffee is also bitter? It's so awful, even worse than alcohol."
After saying that, he picked up the water glass on the table, poured himself a glass of plain water, and took several big gulps to wash away the bitterness in his mouth.
"Is it bitter? I find it incredibly mellow and fragrant. After the bitterness, only sweetness remains, leaving an endless aftertaste."
Youlu stared at the coffee in her hand, talking animatedly. It seemed she was thinking about something through the coffee.
The short-haired woman shook her head violently, her eyes filled with rejection. "I didn't notice. It tastes awful. I would rather die than have another cup."
From the moment Youluo began to speak, Youzhu's eyes never left her, revealing an indescribable emotion.
At that moment, the door to the private room was pushed open from the outside.
Hearing the noise at the door, the three of them looked over at the same time.
Jian Yixue walked in slowly, wearing a white fitted dress and white sneakers.
Her thick, smooth black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, making her look like a lady from a distinguished family.
The short-haired woman was overjoyed to see who it was. She stood up excitedly, ran to Jian Yixue, and hugged her tightly.
Sobbing uncontrollably, she cried, "Boss, I've finally seen you again, sob sob sob~~~ I missed you so much."
If it were in her past life, Jian Yixue would definitely have shoved the pretentious woman away in disgust.
Meeting again in this life feels like a dream.
She liked the real feeling of being embraced.
"I miss you too, Aju. It's been years since I last saw you. You've become even more handsome and charming."
"Really? Boss, you think I've become much more handsome, right?"
The short-haired woman suddenly jumped out of Jian Yixue's arms, her face beaming with confidence and seeking praise.
Jian Yixue couldn't help but laugh.
The one whom Jian Yixue called Aju was Youju.
Within the Youyue organization, everyone's code name and surname are "You".
Upon seeing this, the waiter closed the door and left.
On the sofa, Youzhu, who was not good with words, looked at the two who were catching up and said, "Alright, Juzi, call the boss over, we have something important to discuss."
Upon hearing this, Youju immediately nodded and pulled Jian Yixue to their side.
"Yes, yes, yes, business comes first!"
Jian Yixue was pulled to sit between the two, right next to You Luo.
Looking at Youluo, who was as still as a virgin, she couldn't help but sigh.
This was her best friend from her previous life's organization, but she abandoned their life-and-death friendship for a man.
The reason her code name is Youluo is also because of herself.
Before she knew herself, Youluo gave herself the code name Youxue, which means cold-blooded and ruthless.
She had been doing this for many years in the organization, until she came to know herself.
The two hit it off immediately and quickly became sisters who wore the same dress.
The two were chatting idly on the grass one day.
"Blood, that word is too cold. How about changing it to Fall, which echoes my real name, Snow, and commemorates the day we met, with snow falling all around? What do you think?"
The woman, as cold as winter, looked at him and nodded.
From then on, the internationally renowned assassin Youxue disappeared without a trace, and instead, a little-known female assassin appeared—Youluo!
"Long time no see, Luo."
"Long time no see, Yue."
Youluo looked at the woman beside her with a rare gentleness in her eyes.
Jian Yixue hugged Youluo tightly, as if she wanted to feel Youluo's presence only through the embrace.
Youluo stiffened, somewhat unaccustomed to Jian Yixue's enthusiasm.
Jian Yixue naturally sensed her change and couldn't help but tease, "No way, Luo, you're still single after all these years, aren't you?"
