A tall and cold figure stood in the dark night. He was wearing a black windbreaker, blending with the night. The windbreaker on his body was flapping because of the wind and his eyes that were looking at the distance through a pair of binoculars, were red, menacing and cold.

  “Young Master, we have to leave here immediately. If Bai Wei catches up with us, there is only death for us.”


  The man who was holding the binoculars was Young Master Li. In the process of being escorted by Bai Wei, he killed the guard looking over him and escaped successfully.

  The person talking to Young Master Li was his father’s capable and trusted butler. The day the base was destroyed, the butler went out to buy something and escaped the entire ordeal.

  “Qiao Sen is Qiao Yanze. That year the incident happened to the Qiao family, he disguised himself as Qiao Sen and became an undercover mole in our organization for three years in order to get revenge. He saved my father several times, regardless of his life and won over my father’s trust. My father and I were too careless to have trusted him.”


  Young Master Li narrowed his eyes, his expression extremely dark. “What I didn’t expect most was the nurse called Xiaohei. She is not an ordinary person. I suspect she’s the girl who is kowtowing to Qiao Yanze now.”


  The butler took the binoculars and looked at the brightly lit yacht. “Young Master, this girl looks a little familiar. Don’t you think that she looks a little like Number 21?”


  Number 21 was a top assassin trained by their organization. She had no name in the organization, only a code name.

  Young Master Li frowned. “Now that you mention it, she does look similar. I remember Number 21’s name was Xiao Ying. My father arranged for her to approach Qiao Yanze and she was the sinner who ruined the Qiao family.”


  The butler nodded. “Yes, Master Ba asked Xiao Ying to go to the Qiao family to get close to Qiao Yanze. But something went wrong in the middle that you didn’t know, Young Master.”


  “What went wrong?”


  “Xiao Ying was beautiful and gentle. She was the best looking and most capable assassin among all the assassins we were training. Master Ba had always valued her and before she received the mission of Qiao Yanze, she was able to complete her previous missions very well. But, she made a big mistake on Qiao Yanze.”


  Young Master Li looked at the butler, his cold eyes narrowed. “She fell in love with Qiao Yanze?”


  “That’s right.” The butler’s expression turned solemn. “It’s a taboo for an assassin to fall for their target. Especially when Master Ba asked her to find a chance to sleep with Qiao Yanze and get pregnant with his child, gaining his trust. She stopped Qiao Yanze when he was drunk and almost touched her and bit her finger until it bled the next day to let Qiao Yanze mistakenly think that he had done something to her.

  “Master Ba asked her to continue to look for opportunities to sleep with Qiao Yanze, but she kept fooling Master Ba and begged Master Ba to let Qiao Yanze off. Master Ba was furious and whipped her ten times on the day she begged him. Since he was very disappointed with her, he disfigured her, then threw her into the sea. Then Master Ba let Number 21’s double go back to Qiao Yanze with the reason that she was pregnant.

  “At that time, Qiao Yanze thought that the current Queen of S Country was dead and was immersed in grief. Number 21’s double made use of him being depressed and having his guard down, to put small amounts of drugs in his water. Then, she put the drug in his cigarettes so that he would gradually become addicted to the drug and lose his mind.”


  There was an unknown curve on Young Master Li’s lips. “I think when Number 21 approached Qiao Yanze, she was sincere to him and made him moved by her.” A shrewd man like him would be able to feel it if a woman was insincere.

  “Number 21’s double was able to imitate Number 21 perfectly. Even if I had been interacting with them for many years, I can’t immediately distinguish them from each other. And because they were similar, Master Ba could abandon Number 21 and ask a double to go back to Qiao Yanze’s side instead of her. But the most ironic thing was that before the death of Number 21’s double, she had also fallen for Qiao Yanze.”


  Young Master Li said nothing more and looked through the binoculars at the girl who had kowtowed three times to Qiao Yanze.

  That fair and beautiful face was already covered in blood.

  But there were no tears in her eyes and her slender body seemed to contain a great power. Although her face was different, her eyes were very familiar to him.

  What a stubborn little thing.

  She must feel extremely guilty towards the person who asked her to kneel, if she was willing to kneel and kowtow in such a pathetic way.

  If she was Nurse Xiaohei, she had taken such good care of Qiao Sen in the hospital but was now kneeling and kowtowing to Qiao Yanze. Then, there was only one possibility……

  “I heard that Number 21 has a sister?”


  The butler nodded. “Master Ba originally wanted to find Number 21’s younger sister and used her to threaten Number 21. But Number 21 would not disclose who her sister was, even at death’s door. After she was thrown into the sea by Master Ba, Master Ba did not continue to look for her younger sister!”


  Young Master Li threw the binoculars to the butler and blew a kiss to the yacht that was gradually moving away. A cold smile appeared on his lips and he said in a voice that only he could hear, “Little Xiaohei, I’ll come back for you.”
……

  On the yacht’s deck.

  Cen Xi was feeling dizzy after she had finished kowtowing three times. She lay on the ground, her lips trembling slightly. “Young Master Qiao, can you please return my necklace?”


  Qiao Yanze looked at Cen Xi, who had blood dripping from her forehead to her face, and he tightened his hold on the necklace. Suddenly the necklace popped open and there was a photo of a woman in the heart-shaped pendant.

  She was gentle, beautiful and charming. A glance at her was enough to know that she was a soft and gentle girl, the type that men loved.

  Qiao Yanze could not help thinking of the conversation he had with Zhizhi that year.

  Look, Zhizhi had felt suspicious of Xiao Ying when she first saw her, but he had fallen into a trap that was woven by others and lost completely!

  Qiao Yanze looked into the sea with red eyes, tightening his grip on his hold on the necklace, the veins on the back of his hand throbbing.

  Cen Xi, who was lying on the ground, looked at Qiao Yanze’s expression that was getting increasingly dark and his face was getting tensed. She seemed to have a premonition of something and she said with a trembling voice, “Young Master Qiao, please, please give me back my necklace.”


  Before she could finish, the man raised his fist and unclenched his fingers.
