Carter cursed and contacted the Philippine police, sealing off all traffic entrances and exits in Manila. He did not allow any aircraft or helicopters to enter without permission and completely sealed off waterways, train stations, docks, and airports to search for a young woman and a man wearing half a mask.

The International Criminal Police dispatched more personnel to investigate all foreign nationals and conducted thorough searches of every hotel. The first target was Manila's best hotels; Carter knew Wu Shuang’s style well. She disliked dark and damp places, so wherever she went, if there were no accommodations available, she would definitely choose the most comfortable hotels. This was her consistent habit, never compromising herself.

Right after Wu Shuang and Ghostface left, the International Criminal Police arrived. They used fake passports, making it impossible to find anything out. The two circled around the train station and conveniently led the police on a tour of Manila before leaving with impunity in an unknown direction.

Wu Shuang and Ghostface returned to Rome where she encountered someone she shouldn't have seen there.

Long Chengtian.

The brash man was waiting for her at home, and Mo Yao and Mo Chen actually allowed him free rein within the castle. Wu Shuang found it incredible; given these two brothers' characters, Long Chengtian even entering the castle would be a major issue.

"Why are you here" Wu Shuang asked bluntly. Mo Yao and Mo Chen remained silent on the side and no one greeted them. Ghostface had formally met with Mo Yao and Mo Chen, and they were about to discuss his position in the mafia, but this could wait.

"I've waited for you here for five days," Long Chengtian gritted out through clenched teeth, his handsome face contorted in anger as if Wu Shuang not returning on time was a grave sin.

Wu Shuang gave a sultry smile and looked at Mo Chen. "Why has he been here for five days"

"I think he has a crush on our garden," Mo Chen said in a very humorous tone. Lung Chengtian shot a sharp gaze at Wushuang as if he wanted to devour her; this kind of temperament from Lung Chengtian was nothing new to Wushuang, and she didn't find it strange. He was extremely explosive.

"I don’t recall asking you to wait for me" Wushuang said, "Do you really fancy our backyard garden"

Lung Chengtian cursed and roughly pulled Wushuang over, saying, "I need to speak with you privately!"

The last three words were almost spat out through gritted teeth by Lung Chengtian. He glared viciously at Guimian; even if he couldn’t see Guimian’s expression because of the half-mask, it was clear that this was a frosty glare. Fire encountering ice usually ends with either fire being extinguished or ice melting, but there seemed to be no signs of the former melting or the latter going out. Thus, Lung Chengtian's rage held no threat for Guimian.

Wushuang smiled and couldn't help but muse over this situation, asking Mo Yao and Mo Chen in confusion, "Does a woman who gets dumped have special appeal"

Or are men naturally lowly creatures

In her past pursuits of Lung Chengtian, she didn’t actually hate him. She had an affinity for father figures, but when she was young, she liked Caca exclusively and irreplaceably. Even after meeting Lung Chengtian, she never thought about spending a lifetime with him; she merely enjoyed teasing him and watching his angry and brutal demeanor, which was rather amusing to her. She did like him somewhat, though not enough to love him.

Of course, in this world, there were very few people who could make her feel fondness.

She had chased after him for a long time, but he never gave her a kind look; she tried every means possible and received only ridicule. The chasm between them was the life of someone else.

Lung Chengtian's attitude didn't make her unhappy as no one could hurt her except Caca. She had been playing with him all along, also hoping to get him to forget about his girlfriend, but Lung Chengtian never gave her a favorable response.

Later, she did develop a conquering heart. She didn't believe that he couldn't train Dragon Chengtian and sought to be with Kaka more legitimately by staging a performance with him. However, the outcome was not as expected.

It wasn't until this time when she was injured in London that...

Seeing that he didn't come to visit her after she woke up from her injuries, Wu Shuang concluded that Dragon Chengtian truly had no feelings for her. In reality, she didn't care much about him either; she simply wanted to stop playing the game.

Ten years of secret love had consumed all of her emotions, and she realized she couldn’t give her full heart to anyone else, which wouldn’t be fair to others. It would be better for her to live a carefree life on her own.

Unexpectedly, Dragon Chengtian came to London, and even more surprisingly, after she sent him off from Rome, he actually showed up at her place in Rome waiting for her openly.

Wu Shuang sneered. He wasn't chasing after her; instead, she had to chase after him

If she had known this would happen, back then she wouldn’t have wasted effort pursuing him. It was much better to keep him dangling and see how well it worked without having to expend brainpower.

Now Wu Shuang understood that liking someone and pursuing them wasn't just about using your mind; you needed sincerity too.

Perhaps her persistent use of tactics against Dragon Chengtian, devoid of heart and sincerity, was the reason she couldn’t catch up with him.

Actually, it was fortunate that she hadn’t caught up to him. With a life hanging between them, he would never forget; if she had managed to do so, she’d have far more worries.

Moyu looked dejected and said, "There are only men here besides you. Don't lump all of us together because your uncle is also a man."

"My daddy is the elite scoundrel among scoundrels." He gets happy whenever his mommy tortures him, and he's even happier when she tortures him more. A little sunshine makes him overly joyful...

The crowd: "..."

Mojue, far away on a small island, sneezed. Ye Wei gave him a sidelong glance; could such a breeze from the sea give him a cold Mojue calmly replied that his daughter missed him. Ye Wei's lips twitched.

Long Chengtian’s gaze became increasingly irritable, while Wushuang completely ignored him. As soon as he started to get angry and was about to curse, Mo Yao swept him with icy eyes, "Ghost Mask, let’s go talk in the study; Mo Chen should come too."

Ghost Mask felt it necessary to give them space and decisively followed Mo Yao upstairs. Mo Chen gave Wushuang a gesture, indicating that he should work hard to turn things around and also followed Mo Yao and Ghost Mask upstairs.

Wushuang got up to get drinks from the fridge, conveniently grabbing a can of beer for Long Chengtian as well and casually throwing it at him. She sat down smoothly, opened the can, and drank her drink. Long Chengtian glared at her in anger; Wushuang asked with a smile, "What do you want"

"Go to Russia," Long Chengtian said in a deep voice, trying his best to suppress his temper.

Wushuang raised an eyebrow. "I don’t plan on going to Eastern Europe right now; I have to deal with the Mafia’s affairs and don’t have time."

"Then how did you manage to spend a whole year playing in Eastern Europe"

"Before, I had interest in you, but now I don't, so naturally, I don't have time." Wushuang said matter-of-factly; she always held the initiative. In the past, when she pursued him, it was because she wanted to.he ideal of a lady from an upper-class family.
