Dragon Cheng was so irritated that his teeth ached, but he also felt helpless. He had always been at a loss when it came to Wu Shuang; during the time she pursued him, all he could do was retaliate or run away. This woman was as tough and unyielding as steel—no matter what he said or did, if she didn't like it, she would simply ignore his efforts and force him to accept her pursuit in an overbearing manner that made people's blood boil. Even when she shot dead a woman who got in her way, she felt no guilt whatsoever; she even had the audacity to say it was because that woman obstructed her path.

Although he knew what she said wasn't true, hearing it would make anyone's veins burst with anger. How could there be a woman so arrogant and unrestrained

He had always known that Mo Wu Shuang had feelings for him, but he thought it was just her playing around.

He also hated her—hated how she destroyed his original happiness, hated how she barged into his life without a word, and most of all, hated her capricious personality that made her seem as elusive as the wind.

He wasn't sure if he truly had masochistic tendencies, but when she pursued him, he was tormented by agony and resistance; upon seeing her, he would have liked to kill her. He used her to do many dirty deeds for him, including murder—Wu Shuang always knew what he was doing, and she willingly participated in it, knowing that he wasn't the type of man who blindly obeyed a woman's commands. She probably felt guilty and wanted to compensate him.

The more she had this mentality, the more he exploited it by using Wu Shuang even further. Whenever she went somewhere before, she would return to Eastern Europe within a month and continue pursuing him; his subordinates were very familiar with her.

But after what happened in London this time, while he was anxiously waiting for news of her in Eastern Europe, he didn't want to take the initiative to seek her out. He knew about Wu Shuang's background—she was powerful enough and London was under the control of a terrorist organization, so she couldn't possibly have met with any trouble. But after such a long time without hearing from her and being unable to reach her by phone, he became very worried. Coincidentally, there was a transaction that required him to go to London; originally, sending someone else would have sufficed, but instead, he personally went there eagerly. When he arrived in London, he saw her at Kaka's garden.

He heard their conversation.

He had always known her feelings for Kaka, and he also knew about Kaka's rejection of her In the metropolis novel, Wushuang is an honest person; she once told him that she liked someone for many years, but this person never liked her back. She was unwilling to give up and found it hard to convince herself to do so, watching helplessly as day by day she buried her youth.

Even after burying her youth, she still couldn't bring herself to let go.

But when he saw the look of resignation in her eyes after Kaka said "sorry," his emotions were complex. He felt a sense of relief for Wushuang and also joy, but it was incredibly complicated.

Wushuang should have given up long ago.

Ten years of selfless devotion and companionship resulted in two rejections and an apology. Not every woman is willing to spend ten years of her youth on a relationship without reciprocation.

Nor are all women prepared to love one man so thoroughly for a decade.

He gave her an easy way out, inviting her to leave with him to avoid embarrassment. After all, this was the territory of the First Terrorist Organization, not that of the Mafia. He could sense the intrigue and tension within headquarters. However, who would have thought that Wushuang wouldn't appreciate it and followed Masked Ghost instead

Masked Ghost was someone outside Long Chengtian's calculations; with her personality, besides a few childhood friends, she had no one else close to her. A character like hers, so radiant, men and women alike would be too intimidated to get close.

She and Ghost Mask got along so well upon their first meeting that she even followed him, which infuriated Dragon Chengtian. This anger was suppressed from London to Eastern Europe, but after learning about the trouble they caused in the Philippines, he came running to Rome.

Mou Wushuang was right; men are fickle creatures.

Dragon Chengtian's temper flared up. With a sinister look on his face, he said, "I've never met a woman like you before. You can turn against me as easily as flipping through the pages of a book."

"There are plenty of women you haven't met." Wushuang coolly replied with a half-smile, looking at Dragon Chengtian from the corner of her eye. "Do you dare yell at me in my own house Don’t tell me you want to die"

“Shit!” Dragon Chengtian once again proved he didn't care about his life. Wushuang was torn between laughing and crying. She played with her long hair, smiling alluringly. "Dragon Chengtian, your important matters need attending to; you should quickly return to Eastern Europe and take charge. I temporarily need a break to familiarize Ghost Mask with how the Mafia operates and handle various tasks. I don’t have time to play hide-and-seek with you."

"A grown man needs you to guide him through the Mafia" Dragon Chengtian couldn't help but roll his eyes. Excuses, excuses; they were clearly just that.

"I enjoy it. I may not have much else, but I do have plenty of time." Wushuang deliberately provoked Dragon Chengtian. Since this guy had given her so many unpleasant looks before, even though she didn't care about them herself, she retaliated fiercely. Still, however, returning tenfold was always her principle.

Dragon Chengtian was livid. He wanted to leave but after a few steps he turned back and sat on the sofa, staring coldly at Mou Wushuang with narrowed eyes, as if he intended to stand his ground against her.

Wu Shuang looked at him with amusement; he had always been so stubborn.

She leisurely played with her long hair, completely ignoring Dragon Chengtian's glare. She thought to herself that people who have broken up are supposed to change their hairstyle and mood. Perhaps she should go out and get some curls done to see how it looks; her face could pull off anything.

Hmm, let’s do that then.

Dragon Chengtian stared at her. When Wu Shuang didn’t speak for a long time, he asked sternly, "Mo Wushuang, are you really a woman How come there isn't any expression of heartbreak on your face"

You’re even enjoying yourself.

"What does someone who’s broken up look like Are they supposed to be in such agony that they want to die and wish for death" Wu Shuang raised an eyebrow, leaning lazily against her couch with serious purple eyes. "If crying and making a scene would work, I’d have done it long ago. Why waste effort on something useless."

Dragon Chengtian was amused by her; although he knew that Wu Shuang was just talking, such histrionic methods weren’t her style at all. Mo Baixiao’s Persian cat darted in from the door and jumped onto Wu Shuang, meowing loudly as it pounced on her.

This Persian cat had a snow-white coat and an especially plump belly; its fur was soft and cute, with bright blue eyes like sapphires. It was noble, lazy, yet slightly mischievous—what kind of person keeps what kind of pet. This little creature clearly came from the same breed as Mo Baixiao; it was very adorable.mly lit and silent.The cold metallic sounds rang out, not particularly heavy but clear in the quiet garage. Without-Double emerged from under the truck, rolled swiftly on the ground, and hid in a corn...
