  Only when she was asleep did the sharp edge that she bore subside.

  Gu Jinglian sat down lightly beside her and casually sized her up. In her dream, Chu He did not sense any abnormal movements around her. Gu Jinglian was a little stunned. Her vigilance had been greatly reduced compared to before. Or could it be said, she was no longer on guard against him.

  Given her identity, she was an extremely vigilant person. Even if she were asleep, the slightest of movements would immediately wake her.

  Or at least, it used to. But now, she no longer seemed as wary of him as before.

  Gu Jinglian could not help looking stunned given this realization. His meeting with this woman was not a coincidence. Back then, when she first entered the Gu family, he knew that her background was not simple. However, he did not know her identity until she had been by his side for more than a month. The investigation report said that she was a high-ranking member of the Interpol.

  Not simple at all.

  For a woman to be able to serve as the highest ranking anti-vice inspector in the headquarters of such a highly competitive international criminal police organization. It showed that this woman was quite ruthless. It was said that she was a mercenary. This meant that she had stood out from tens of thousands of people.

  After learning of her identity, he was not in a hurry to expose her. Gu Jinglian would occasionally feel that life was boring and tasteless. With such an interesting woman by his side, he developed an interest in teasing her.

  This man was like an elegant cat, never in a hurry to kill its prey after having caught it. Instead, he liked to slowly torture it to exhaustion and till it wished for death. Then, he would casually swallow the prey.

  He still remembered that night, he drank some wine and came home. His alcohol tolerance was low, but that day, he had unintentionally drank too much and was slightly tipsy.

  Perhaps it was this state that made her realize that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Hence, she wanted to move in on him.

  Gu Jinglian was in the room. Chu He walked in slowly. He did not see the pistol hidden on her body, but he saw the murderous intent in her eyes.

  She wanted to kill him.

  The headquarters had given the order, and Chu He had received it long ago. It was just that there had been no opportunity.

  Gu Jinglian was always heavily guarded, so it was difficult for her to find an opportunity to strike. However, the opportunity was precious that night.

  Gu Jinglian saw the murderous intent in her eyes but did not expose it. Instead, he said to her, “Honghe, come here.”


  She walked slowly towards him, and he realized at that moment that she must be reaching for her gun.

  Interesting.

  Did she really think that he would lose his vigilance after drinking a bit too much? Or was she conceited enough to think that without the protection of those bodyguards and death guards, she would definitely be able to get what she wanted with him single-handedly?

  Gu Jinglian suddenly sat up, grabbed her arm and pulled her into his embrace. Chu He was shocked. She didn’t expect him to do this. At that time, although Gu Jinglian was not seeing too many women, he never saw any of them more than once. He only had physical needs, he did not have feelings. However, at the very least, he had never done anything intimate with her. It was as if to him, she was just like everyone else, a cold pawn……
