me!"Although this statement is said softly, one cannot ignore the underlying firmness hidden within its gentleness!Thus, Nguyen Cong Huy has been defeated!Unable to win in eloquence, Ruan Chengzhi gla...A dark shadow gracefully leaped over the window, landing softly on the ground like a feline. Not a sound escaped him. Despite the air conditioning humming in many homes, it was a sweltering summer day, and people preferred to open their windows for ventilation and a natural breeze. The wide-open window provided an excellent opportunity for Xiao Yi's entrance. Dressed in a black tight-fitting suit, he seamlessly blended into the night, like a phantom, born for darkness.

Xiao Yi's sharp eyes quickly scanned the surroundings. After taking in the room's layout and combining it with the information he had, his gaze shifted, fixing on Li Lanqiu who was sleeping peacefully on the bed like a wolf eyeing its prey.

He approached at a speed that made him seem to float, still without a sound. His silver dagger flashed in the darkness, sending a chilling gleam that sent shivers down one's spine. As the dagger pressed downward, he leaped onto the bed like a wolf, extending an arm to pin Li Lanqiu down, while the razor-sharp dagger, which looked as if it could sever tendons with a single strike, was placed directly under Li Lanqiu's throat.

Li Lanqiu was finally awakened, her eyes snapping open quickly. Her pupils contracted suddenly, and her heart began to beat erratically, racing wildly out of control.

Xiao Yi!

She hated this man, but also subtly felt a touch of fear!

A glint of silver caught her peripheral vision, warning her: that was the weapon. The touch on her neck confirmed it: the weapon was pressed against her skin.

She froze instantly, not quite sure how to react.

"I can kill you right now!"

The flatness of his voice made him seem like a killing machine. Or perhaps, in his eyes, murder was as simple and natural as brushing off dust. The more this was true, the more terrifying he became. Look at his eyes, so dark, devoid of any light, as if they refused to let light in, already filled with darkness to their depths – something only one accustomed to killing could possess. These two black eyes were like cosmic black holes, able to swallow people without hesitation. Under such gaze, anyone would suffocate.

Li Lanqiu trembled slightly.

She isn't actually strong, she isn't actually excellent, she isn't actually qualified. She's just an outsider of the intelligence agency, by chance, she got to this point. With a knife on her neck, she values her life, she is afraid.

"You...you...are going to...do...what"

Terror, and the pain she felt radiating from her still-ailing face, caused her words to fall out one by one.

Xiao Yi's hand moved slightly. The silver dagger, like a graceful dancer, swayed gently. But don't underestimate this gentleness and elegance, because often what appears most elegant is the most deadly. As such, when the dagger slid, it left behind a trail of crimson blood.

That slimy feeling forced Li Lanqiu's face to turn pale; her good half of her face instantly turned as white as a sheet, while the swollen half was purplish-blue, as if every tiny blood vessel on her face was about to burst through her skin.

Ugly, and terrifying!

She trembled violently, her two lips moving slightly, like fallen leaves in the wind, tinged with the colors of decay.

Such a woman, how could she possibly match up to Lin Meng! Where on earth did Rong Ling go wrong in the head to end up entangled with this woman!

A thin layer of anger flashed across Xiao Yi's heart.

"Stop clinging to Rong Ling, or this dagger will pierce your throat!"

A sinister voice, as if from the underworld, fell. Xiao Yi suddenly raised his dagger and plunged it down.

The silver light, so cold and bright, almost blinded Li Lanqiu.

"Ah--" she screamed, fearfully closing her eyes.

But, the expected pain did not come. She trembled and opened her eyes slightly, but she couldn't see the towering man who was even more terrifying than a ferocious beast.

Where did it go!

She searched in terror, covering her bleeding neck with her hand. Vaguely, it seemed like a dark figure jumped out of the window. She didn't dare chase after it, nor did she feel like she had escaped by any means. That insane devil, who knew what kind of things he would do!

She immediately grabbed the phone that was on the bed, hurriedly dialing a number to have those two men sent over by Rong Ling come upstairs right away. She needed protection now, urgently!

When the two burly men rushed in and turned on the lights, her wildly beating heart finally calmed down somewhat. She ordered them to search the room carefully for any suspicious figures. Upon receiving a negative answer, the tension that had gripped her finally eased.

Only then did she realize that because of her fear, she had become stiff. The man in the darkness at that moment conveyed to her a message: he would kill her without hesitation. It made her feel incredibly lucky that she hadn't been killed. Who knows what that crazy devil was thinking at that time!

She only thought about it, and she felt a chill run down her spine. All this time, she hated Xiao Yi, but she had no outlet for her hatred. Because Xiao Yi was dead, killed in the devastating explosion of the Silver Wolf Group. So, she turned her revenge on Lin Meng and Rong Ling. But Xiao Yi unexpectedly didn't die, he reappeared. That was absolutely something she couldn't forgive. She must absorb Rong Ling into her department, she must become the head mistress of the Rong family. One reason was that she needed powerful strength to kill Xiao Yi. She even imagined countless ways to torture Xiao Yi, making him unable to survive or die, experiencing pain a thousand times, ten thousand times worse than hers.

Even when she was weak, she could only think about it. Because her superiors would definitely not take action against Xiao Yi because of her personal grudge and send someone to assassinate him. The only person she could rely on was Rong Ling, which left her with no choice but to hold onto Rong Ling tightly. But she never expected that before she could seek revenge on Xiao Yi, this devil would find her first, and almost killed her!

The pain in her neck was a constant reminder of what she had just gone through.

Life hangs in the balance!

He also threatened her not to pester Rong Ling again, or else he would kill her. But how could she possibly do that! Leaving Rong Ling was absolutely impossible. However, the devil's words were definitely not a joke. He was capable of doing it, and he had the ability to do so. He could come and go freely like no one else in this small villa, and for him, the high third floor was simply like flat ground. Such ability was terrifying.

She worked in the intelligence department and had heard stories about many skilled individuals. In their hands, killing someone would be too easy. Therefore, she didn't doubt for a moment that if she didn't do something, she would definitely be killed by him!

She bit her lip gloomily, and it hurt immediately, both her lips and her cheek. She cursed angrily in her heart, thinking of Lin Meng and Xiao Yi, and she roared out every possible insult she knew, her inner turmoil growing even wilder.

The blood on his neck is still flowing, it must be dealt with immediately.

Covering her neck, she shuffled towards the bed and then felt something slipping down. She glanced sideways, a few strands of black resting on her arm.

Her pupils contracted, and following those strands of black, she saw the hair that lay scattered on the bed. Starting from near the edge of the bed, it extended in a scattered manner all the way to the pillow. At the edge of the pillow, the hair suddenly increased in number, forming a thick clump.

That's—her hair!

What came to her mind was Xiao Yi's final thrust. The cold dagger fell, not taking her life, but shaving off her hair. And she, was completely unaware of it. This showed how sharp the blade must have been!

Her fear increased, and at the same time, hatred grew as well!

That man must be eliminated, and quickly. She had gone to great lengths to get to this point, she couldn't let him ruin her plans.

Her mind raced as she tended to her wound, and then in the mirror, she saw it—the hair at the side of her head was noticeably shorter than the rest, with a large chunk missing. It looked incredibly jarring.

Upon closer inspection, she gasped in shock!

Judging from the severed hair, the dagger had nearly grazed her cheek. If it had been just a hair’s breadth closer, it would have sliced right through her skull. This sent a fresh wave of fear coursing through her!

Having calmed herself with difficulty and treated the wound on her neck, she called Rong Ling.

Now, that man is her greatest support!

The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.

"What's wrong" the man asked in a low, gruff voice, with the sleepiness of someone awakened abruptly.

Li Lanqiu's eyes welled up with tears, and she burst into sobs. "Rong, you... come here quickly, I... just... almost... was... killed!"

"What" Rong Ling's voice suddenly rose, sounding both surprised and angry. "What on earth is going on"

Li Lanqiu choked back sobs and recounted the entire story from beginning to end.

"Oh, that... man is too scary, I'm afraid, sniffle..."

"Xiao Yi is too much, he actually dared to touch you!" Rong Ling shouted angrily, coaxing. "Don't cry first, I'll be there right away --"

"Uh-huh."

Li Lanqiu's heart just had a bit of joy, and immediately heard the childish voice from the phone, carrying coldness and displeasure.

"Daddy, where are you going"

Damn it!

Li Lanqiu cursed inwardly, it was that little demon!

On the phone, Rong Ling was explaining to the little kid that she had to go out for a bit and would be back soon. The little kid immediately started crying.

"No, no, Daddy, you can't leave, you can't leave――"

"Be good..." Rong Ling coaxed softly. "Daddy has something very important to do."

"It's not a big deal! You're going to see Auntie Li, I heard it all! In the middle of the night, Dad, you left Youyou all alone at home and went to see another aunt. That's too much, you're too mean, too bad, too bad!"

"No, Youyou, your Aunt Li had a bit of an accident, she'd be scared being alone at home..."

"Little one immediately snatched the white blanket. “But Daddy's gone, Youyou is all alone at home and will be scared. Daddy only thinks of Auntie Li, what about Youyou Daddy doesn't care about Youyou anymore, woohoo, Youyou is a little child! Auntie Li is an adult, adults are even more afraid than children, woohoo, I don't care, you can't go, Youyou will be scared, Youyou wants Daddy, Daddy mustn't go—"

From the phone came Rong Ling's helpless voice. "Youyou, don't hug Daddy, come down quickly --"

"No, no, I won't come down. I just won't! If I come down, Daddy will leave. I don't want Daddy to leave, woohoo, Daddy if you leave, then I'll leave too, woohoo. Mommy, don't love Youyou anymore, now even Daddy doesn't love Youyou, then Youyou might as well just leave this family. Woohoo. Anyway, Youyou is an unloved, unwanted child..."

"Youyou..." Rong Ling helplessly called out.

The little child immediately burst into tears.

"Wow, Youyou is unloved, Youyou is unwanted, bad daddy, bad daddy..."

Li Lanqiu could feel Rong Ling on the other end of the phone, starting to hurriedly coax the little guy and promising the little guy that they wouldn't go anywhere.

Hearing this, her face contorted, and she roared in her heart: "Damn little ghost, are you finished You're ruining my plans everywhere! I won't let you get away with this, I won't!"

With eyes blazing, her face contorted in rage, she wished with all her might to bite that little demon to death.

"Autumn, I'm sorry." It seemed that Rong Ling had coaxed the little one over there, and then continued his conversation with her. "The child is making a big fuss, I'll go to your place tomorrow morning."

“Ah, I just… but… almost… died… Ah, oh no…” Bearing her facial pain, Li Lanqiu cried out in distress.

“I know.” Rong Ling sighed, “So I’m sorry, Qiqi. I made you feel wronged, but, I don’t want Youyou to dislike you in her heart, you know, in the future, you will be Youyou’s... and I don’t want...”

He was stunned.

The vague words, however, made Li Lanqiu understand Rong Ling's meaning the instant she heard them. He meant that she would be marrying him and becoming Youyou's stepmother in the future, so he couldn't let the child dislike her.

Li Lanqiu, who had fallen in love and was confident of her superior control, now had a "virtue" that she automatically and spontaneously provided various excuses and justifications for Rong Ling.

At this very moment, as she finished replenishing herself, her mood became slightly more comfortable. The attitude with which Rong Ling had come to persuade her also wavered somewhat.

Feng Ling said, "Here's what we'll do. I'll have Dayang take some people to protect your place. Xiao Yi is capable, but he doesn't have three heads and six arms. If he dares to come again, don't even think about going back alive."

"Wait, I'm scared…" Li Lanqiu quickly cried out. "It's just like this… being... protected by someone... isn't the same thing... there are always times when you can't guard against everything... right Waaaah, what if he... next time... gets his hands on me, that... that..."

"She cried out in surprise. “By then, you… won’t be able to… see me anymore!”

"Don't say that!" Rong Ling immediately scolded. And the little one beside him didn't stop teasing either. "Daddy, sleep, sleep, Youyou has to wake up early tomorrow morning, Daddy, Daddy!"

The little boy looked very unhappy, which made Li Lanqiu's teeth itch with anger. She thought to herself, "I'll get you for this little devil sooner or later!"

With a troubled heart, she didn't want to prolong the situation any further and directly expressed her purpose.

"Listen, I tonight... almost... died! Could it just... end like this! That man... is a lunatic. I think... he's completely... heartless and would kill without a blink. And, he... openly... tempted... your wife, put that hat on you... Don't you want to... teach him a lesson... punish him... for me... get revenge... for yourself... vent your anger"

Damn it, for God's sake, I endured the pain and spoke so much. Is that easy!

Damn Xiao Yi!

Deep down, she was filled with resentment, yet she dared not say outright that she had killed Xiao Yi. She feared that Rong Ling would think her heart too cruel. After all, in Rong Ling's eyes, Li Lanqiu should be a kind-hearted person.

What the heck!

She muttered under her breath!

Rong Ling snorted over there.

"That man, I will get even with him sooner or later, but now――"

He hesitated for a moment, then continued in a sullen tone. "Bear with it for now. He's very powerful right now. After I went to Italy, I found that he was much harder to deal with than I imagined. With the current situation in Asia and your uncle being imprisoned, I can't afford to make another powerful enemy for myself. Hmph, just bear with it for now. Once I take care of things in Asia and with your uncle, I'll definitely make him pay!"

By then, it will be too late!

Li Lanqiu panicked!

In this world, if someone wants to kill another, there are always endless ways to do so. And according to Rong Ling, Xiao Yi's power is now immense. Her entanglement with Rong Ling wouldn't be making her life more dangerous If she doesn't kill Xiao Yi one day, isn't she in danger of being killed every single day!

"Please, that Xiao Yi... will kill me!" Li Lanqiu cried bitterly.

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to protect you!"

Protection!

Even the best protection will prove that old adage -- there's always a loophole!

She's afraid of that kind of carelessness!

"Toler…"

“Daddy——” the little boy cried out in displeasure. The child's milk was truly plentiful, his screams were loud enough to pierce Li Lanqiu’s ears, making them hurt a bit. Then, as if the phone had been snatched away by the child, clear shouts from the child came through the receiver.

"Sleep now, sleep now, don't bother my daddy anymore!"

The phone was ruthlessly cut off by the little one again!

Li Lanqiu trembled with the phone in her hand. She went mad for a moment, her hair almost standing on end.

You little pest, can you please stop being so annoying!

Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Li Lanqiu screamed in her heart, the little ghost's face flashed in her mind, fantasizing about one bullet after another shooting at the little ghost, piercing him directly!

Furious, she dialed the number again, but it went straight to voicemail. She tried calling again, and it was disconnected once more. Just as she was about to stomp her foot in anger, a text message popped up.

"Qiqi, I'm sorry you had to go through this. Wait for me, I'll be there tomorrow morning. I've already sent Dayang and his people over. Don't worry, with them protecting you, nothing will happen to you."

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid he will kill me!"

Li Lanqiu hurriedly sent a text message and waited for Rong Ling's reply. Soon, a text message slid in. Her heart skipped a beat, she immediately opened the message, but as soon as she saw the content of the message, her face twisted severely. The short message read:

Auntie, you should go to bed early.

Coming with it, is a big, scary ghost face!

Li Lanqiu was whimpering in pain, because even a slight turn of her face felt excruciating. At the same time, she was so angry that she almost spat blood. Unable to contain herself, she dialed his number again, but to her fury, Rong Ling had switched off his phone!

Li Lanqiu exploded in anger!

She was about to lose it, raising her hand to smash the phone. But just as she was about to do it, she held back, taking a deep breath and retracting her hand. This phone wasn't just any phone; she had just bought it online this afternoon. Of course, "online" didn't quite tell the whole story. Someone from her department had disguised themselves as a courier and delivered it to her. The previous morning's phone had been destroyed due to unforeseen circumstances. But now, if she broke this one… how could she possibly explain it to her superiors Getting this phone and secretly installing those disguise programs wasn't easy. If she smashed it, she was definitely going to be in trouble!

"Shit! Shit! Sonbitch! Shit! Fuck!"

Her eyelid twitched in pain, but Li Lanqiu still couldn't control her incessant cursing. She felt like she would go insane if she didn't curse. But no matter how much she cursed, the injury was still hers. Rong Ling on the other end remained oblivious and unharmed.

As soon as something happened with Li Lanqiu, Rong Ling's men immediately sent him a message. Rong Ling thought about it for a moment, then quickly got out of bed, rushed out of the room, and ran to the little boy's room, pulling the little boy over and walking back, so as not to disturb Xiao Haohuo's sleep. Around 2:00 a.m., the little boy was just like Xiao Haohuo, sleeping soundly and sweetly, but he was mercilessly pinched a few times on the butt by his father, waking him up.

The little fellow, still a bit grumpy from waking up, glared at his father right as he received a mission. His eyes, still drowsy just moments ago, lit up instantly. He seemed to have been injected with chicken blood all of a sudden, jolted awake and energized!

Thus, under Lin Meng's amused gaze, the father and son began to rehearse their lines and act out scenes. Under Lin Meng's stifled laughter, they put on a hilarious double act.

Li Lanqiu heard the little boy crying loudly there, like a child who hadn't grown up at all. But she didn't know that there wasn't a single tear on the little boy's face, he was just sitting there sobbing. When his mommy went to take acting classes or when uncles and aunts came to her mommy's house to rehearse plays, he would listen by the side. And you know what He's a prodigy who understands everything immediately, and he's even acted in plays!

The little tongue licked the red, tender lips. The little one smiled like a cunning little fox, using his pearly white hand to shut his father's phone. He dashed towards an empty space, waving the phone as if showing off to Li Lanqiu who was far away.

That look caused Lin Meng a chuckle.

The little guy immediately became proud and said with a hint of self-importance, "Mommy, Youyou is amazing, right"

"Wow, that's amazing! Oh my, how could our little Yoyo be so good!"

The little guy giggled with glee and pride. He loved being praised by his mommy!

"Mommy, Youyou is so amazing, are you going to reward Youyou with something" She then turned her head to look at his father. "Daddy, what will you reward Youyou with"

When he finished speaking, the little boy's eyes shone even brighter, as if he could already see a gift that was even better and more powerful than the ever-changing magic house coming to him soon.

He's really looking forward to it!

Although he was gentle, he rudely grabbed his head.

"Greed!"

The little guy immediately acted like a child, sticking his tongue out at him and then rushing towards Lin Meng.

"Mommy, Youyou is going to sleep here tonight! Hehe, this can be a reward, right"

Lin Meng nodded, pulled the little guy into her arms, and then softly said, "Let Daddy bring Haohao over too, let's all sleep together. Otherwise, when Haohao wakes up and doesn't see you, and finds that you are sleeping with Mommy and Daddy, he will be sad."

The little boy frowned, his small mouth pouted slightly. His fair face was tinged with resentment as he rubbed his little head against Lin Meng's shoulder for a while before finally lifting it up, looking wronged and aggrieved.

"Alright then, Daddy will go hold Haohào."

Although the little guy gets along well with Haohuo, children, after all, will sometimes be possessive. In fact, not just children, but adults too, will have moments when they become possessive.

Lin Meng looked at his little guy and hugged him tightly, rubbing him fiercely. Then she kissed him several times deeply.

"Our Youyou is the best, taking such good care of her younger brother. She's the best big sister in the world!"

No matter how many times you try to flatter someone, it won't work.

The little boy was instantly cheered up and proudly puffed out his chest, saying seriously, "That's right!"

...but was utterly blunt!

He secretly found joy in teasing Lin Meng.

Ronger went to hug Little Haohuo, while Linmeng held the little one and spoke softly. The whole family was loving and sweet together.

On that end, Li Lanqiu, all alone, was still caught in a frenzy. Rong Ling's subordinates had appeared. Danyang, who always followed Rong Ling, was here too. This proved that Rong Ling valued her, but it wasn't enough!

She wants Xiao Yi dead!

New and old grudges, all accumulated together, made her the more she thought about it, the stronger this idea became.

Her face, after the numbness wore off, was incredibly painful to touch. It was also quite hideous, bruised and purple, looking almost like an old witch's. There was no way she could go out in public like this. Who did this to her! -- It was Lin Meng.

Then where did Lin Meng hide--She hid with Xiao Yi.

Who could have stopped her from seeking revenge against Lin Meng -- It was Xiao Yi!

This is just like Xiao Yi teaming up with Lin Meng to slap her again and again!

Now, her neck, who slashed it! -- It was Xiao Yi!

She didn't dare to think too much, nor speak too much. Who was to blame! -- It was Xiao Yi!

Her perfectly good hair, who cut it! -- It was Xiao Yi!

Who else could have made her even uglier She has to go to the hairdresser with that awful face! —It's Xiao Yi!

Who was it, that stood in the way of her and Rong Ling being together, and who threatened to kill her! -- It was Xiao Yi!

It's Xiao Yi!

It's Xiao Yi!

He is the one!

It's all him!

Li Lanqiu could no longer bear it. Thinking of this person, the anger in her heart, like a volcanic eruption, suddenly erupted, instantly making her head hot!

Rong Ling said she had to endure, had to wait, and that he couldn't help her. But she thought of another person, who should help her. And that person definitely hated Xiao Yi with a burning passion!

Jiang Yancheng!

This name, suddenly magnified in her heart!

She knew that Jiang Po Lang had been killed by the Silver Wolf Gang. That was why Jiang Yan Cheng had swiftly eliminated them with thunderous force back then. Newspapers reported that Xiao Yi had died along with many important members of the Silver Wolf Gang. But now, the former leader of the Silver Wolf Gang is back from the dead! With his beloved son in danger, Jiang Yan Cheng definitely won't let this man go.

She was suddenly excited, realizing how foolish she had been. Because she wanted to help Rong Sanbo, she had positioned herself as an enemy of Jiang Yichen, constantly thinking about how to defend against him and how to fight back. She had completely forgotten that this man could also be useful to her. After all, besides being Li Lanqiu, she was also Wu Shengnan!

In terms of their relationship, she could still call him "Uncle Jiang!"all done!My son now has a son! And my son also has a woman he's going to marry!That's great!If she weren't in front of so many people, she would want to cry her heart out, but this was definitely a h...
