Chapter 183 Earthquake



On the surface, everything seems calm, but the turmoil hidden beneath appears to be quite significant.

But they couldn't quite put their finger on what it was, and a strange tension began to rise within them.

Listening to Wu Mei's words and seeing that neither Miss Qi nor her master were there, Liu Yun seemed to have made some kind of decision and slowly walked towards Wu Mei.

"Um, since my master and your master have this kind of relationship, does that mean we're acquainted? May I ask, where are you from...?"

Wu Mei laughed at this blatant platitude. She turned to look at Liu Yun's probing expression and raised her red lips.

"You're asking me this? Don't you know? The master hasn't said anything, and I won't say anything either. If you're curious, ask the master when you have time. This isn't something I should be telling you."

If the master hasn't said anything, how dare their personal guards speak up?

After saying that, she turned her head back, looking like she didn't care about taking care of herself.

Liu Yun: "..." Isn't this why I came to ask you guys instead of asking myself...?

The group waited there for an unknown amount of time, until the sun had taken a big step up in the sky, when they finally noticed that the two of them had come out.

They seemed to be in a hurry, having run all the way here, and the lipstick mark on Qi Silin's face was still there as always.

There were no obvious changes in either of them, and it seemed as if nothing had happened, so how could it have taken so long?

"Master, what's wrong...?"

Wu Mei leaned closer, looked at Qi Jiu whose face was slightly flushed from running, and pursed her lips.

"Shhh."

The girl put her index finger to her lips. Seeing this, Wu Mei and the others, even though they had a lot of questions to ask, kept quiet.

After waiting for two seconds...

"boom!"

Suddenly, the earth shook violently.

The commotion was so loud that even though they were standing so far away in the clubhouse, they could hear it clearly, and it even sounded like a bombshell.

It even startled many of the birds in the surrounding woods.

Wu Mei was stunned, while Wu Liang was the first to react, holding the telescope in front of his eyes.

The once bustling clubhouse was now covered in black smoke and surrounded by dust. Once the smoke dissipated, the once magnificent clubhouse was revealed to be nothing but ruins.

There were a few other people who managed to escape from that area; the others were probably already...

"Master, this was... done by you?"

Judging from their actions, it's not hard to guess that they knew this was going to happen, which is why they jogged over.

Qi Jiu shook her head, glancing at Qi Silin beside her with a smile in her eyes.

"The culprit is right next to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Silin felt many gazes gathering around him.

He pursed his lips and remained silent.

It turned out that when they took the elevator to the sixth floor, Qi Silin originally wanted to go to the restroom to tidy himself up. As soon as he went in, he unexpectedly overheard some plans that he shouldn't have heard.

The Morse code suddenly entered his ears. He stood in front of the sink, looking at the empty surroundings, and finally focused his gaze on the second stall behind.

I don't know which unlucky person became the target of some mercenaries.

The two of them infiltrated the compound using their own skills. There weren't originally that many explosives, but the two of them managed to get quite a few by using their superb acting skills.

The mercenaries should have realized something was wrong by now, but it's too late.

Everything is gone.

Even without their actions, the clubhouse wouldn't have survived; it's just that their actions made the building completely ruined.

The girl smiled brightly, looked at Joel, and subconsciously reached out to touch his head.

"This is not the culprit yet. Wait a minute, you'll have to face more than just this."

And that uncle who withheld your property.

Joel tilted his head, seemingly not understanding what the sentence meant, but Qi Jiu didn't say anything more.

He then looked at Qi Silin.

The next second, the man looked at the sky and the ground, but not at him.

Joel: "..." Very well, you have a secret, huh!

On the way, Qi Jiu looked at the man with the phone to his ear, his face somewhat serious, and pursed her lips.

So soon, it seems they're going to separate again.

As she watched him hang up the phone, the girl's lips curved into a slight smile.

"Something happened on Death Gate Island?"

Qi Silin was taken aback. He neither nodded nor denied it.

"There was a slight problem, but it's not a big one."

As they approached the tarmac in T continent, he reached out his large hand and gently pinched her cheek.

"I'll be coming to find you soon, so wait for me patiently."

Parting is for a better reunion next time.

He believes this time will be the same.

On the tarmac, when everything was ready, Qi Silin, who was about to turn and leave, suddenly turned around and looked at Qi Jiu, whose eyes were only on him, and his heart softened.

Then, in the next second, he leaned down and pressed his warm lips against the girl's forehead.

It seemed as if time had stopped at that moment.

a long time.

Once aboard the helicopter, Qi Silin looked out the window at the girl waving at him below, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Seeing this, Liu Yun looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Speak up if you have something to say."

Liu Yun cleared his throat. "Master, why didn't you deny it just now?"

Actually, their return this time wasn't because something happened on Death Gate Island, but rather...

"There are some things that I shouldn't tell her yet. I won't say them on purpose. I'll just let things take their course."

He also believed that this girl probably had other secrets she hadn't told him, but he wasn't in a hurry.

If their relationship is affected by these things, it only means that their feelings for each other are not deep enough.

He wouldn't put any pressure on her until those problems were completely resolved.

When they returned to the assassin organization, it was already dark, and the stars twinkled in the sky.

The girl had just returned to the somewhat secluded tent and hadn't even had a chance to say anything when she lowered her eyes and fixed her gaze on the fruit on the table.

He raised an eyebrow, seemingly somewhat surprised, and then looked at the towering forest not far away.

"Fourth Brother, Leng Ruo has been here?"

As she spoke, she picked up the pre-cut fruit from the table.

Nobody here cuts fruit like that, except for Leng Ruo.

Perhaps due to some obsessive-compulsive tendencies, Leng Ruo cuts the fruit into neat, uniform pieces, and even the scraps are handled properly.

This makes the whole fruit platter look very pleasing to the eye.

For those roughnecks like Li Haotalin, it's already a miracle they didn't hug fruit trees and gnaw on them, let alone cut fruit.

Fruit tree: "..."

The child was scared.

A faint smile appeared on Tallinn's somewhat pale face.

"She knew you were coming back today, and this was the first time she spoke to us on her own initiative. She also cut the fruit on this fruit platter herself."
