Mu Xiaoxiao looked into his eyes.
His eyes, dark as night, could soothe anyoneâs heart.
The sun was setting and only its last glow could be seen on the horizon.
Suddenly, Mu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, cried out, and bent over. She looked really uncomfortable.
One of the subordinates had no choice but to go up to her. âWhatâs wrong?â he asked.
The boss had said that this girl was very important. She had to be guarded carefully.
âMy⦠My stomach hurtsâ¦. I want to use the toiletâ¦â Mu Xiaoxiao said weakly, her face contorted.
The subordinate hesitated, but could only bring her to the toilet.
âGo in here!â
After more than ten minutes, the subordinate began to feel suspicious and went to knock on the door.
âHey, come out! Come out, do you hear me!â
However, there was no reply or any sound from inside.
The toiletâs location made it impossible for anyone to escape.
Sh*t!
Could⦠something have happened to the girl inside?
The subordinate panicked and knocked on the door forcefully as he called out, âHey! What are you doing inside? Hurry up and open the door!â
Just as he was about to force his way in, the door opened.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked displeased as she looked at him. âWhat are you shouting for? Donât you know that girls take a long time in the toilet?â
The subordinate was a little stunned by her rebuke.
Nevertheless, it was good that nothing happened to her. If something had happened to this girl, he would not know what to say to his boss.
The subordinate said awkwardly, âHurry up and sit back down! Donât think about trying anything funny.â
Mu Xiaoxiao walked over to Jun Zeyeâs side and sat down.
Discreetly, she passed the thing she was hiding in her hand to Jun Zeye.
The two of them avoided eye contact on purpose.
Suddenly, KO walked in. His gaze swept the room as though he had found something and Mu Xiaoxiaoâs heart lurched and began to race madly.
KO smiled as he walked over. âA friend just called me. I want you to listen in too.â
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao felt relieved.
This meant that he had not noticed anything amiss, right?
KO walked over, sat on the right arm of the one-seater sofa she was on and crossed his legs. Phone in hand, he answered the call.
Meanwhileâ¦
Feng Shengyang, whose call just went through, looked furious. âYou lied to me! This was different from what you agreed! Why did you take Xiaoxiao away? She was your objective from the start, right?â
âThatâs right,â KO agreed shamelessly. He smiled as he said, âI really have to thank you for your help this time. If it werenât for you, I wouldnât have been able to capture her successfully.â
âLet Xiaoxiao go! Donât you hurt her, you hear?â Feng Shengyang spoke with a rare sternness.
KO said, âRelax, Iâm not going to hurt her. But⦠I canât help it if someone else wants to hurt her.â
The last sentence was said on purpose for Jun Zeye.
Feng Shengyang did not know this and thought KO wanted to let someone else hurt Xiaoxiao. Instantly, his blood boiled. âKO! Let me warn you! Youâre not allowed to hurt her! If anything happens to her, Iâll get revenge on you!â
KO tutted. Glancing at Xiaoxiao, he said, touched, âFeng Shengyang, Feng Shengyang, I didnât know you wer one of her protectors tooâ¦â
These words were for Xiaoxiao to hear.
Upon hearing Feng Shengyangâs name, Mu Xiaoxiaoâs face paled instantly.
Feng Shengyang⦠knew KO and was working with him?
