Gu Feiyang spoke with a stern warning. If he wasn’t worried about scaring Mimi, he would never have let him leave alive. The villain’s eyes widened, repeatedly nodding, disregarding his profusely bleeding leg, immediately crawling and rolling away until he disappeared.
Gu Feiyang took off his outer coat and wrapped it around Mimi, covering her trembling chest that she was trying to hide. He picked her up in his arms and walked towards the villa. Entering the house, he placed her on the sofa. He was unusually calm, making her wonder if what just happened was perha
“It’s okay now, don’t cry, be good.”
I promise that no one will ever hurt you again. Gu Feiyang cupped her face full of fear in his palm, wiping away the tears on her rosy cheeks with his thumb. “Woo… you—you almost killed him…” Mimi’s face was pale, her whole body trembling, her eyes filled with panic-stricken tears.
Gu Feiyang said calmly, “Don’t forget your identity. You’re a professional assassin. Even if I killed him, you shouldn’t panic. This is a lesson you must face in the future.”
“No… woo woo… I can’t do it… I’m so scared, really scared…” Faced with such great grievance and shock, Gu Feiyang still expected her to remain calm, making her feel a hundred times more difficult. Tears began to flood uncontrollably.
“I will make you able to do it,” he said.
“Woo…” Mimi continued, still trembling, continuously sobbing, “Woo… woo…”
Gu Feiyang went to the bar and poured a glass of red wine. “Have some wine. Maybe it’ll make you feel better.”
“Woo woo…” Mimi continued crying, not taking the wine glass.
“How can I make you stop crying and erase the panic from your brow?” He felt immense heartache and reluctance, extending his arms and pulling her small body into his embrace.
Remembering the scene of her being bullied, he trembled with fear. If he had returned a minute later, the consequences would have been unimaginable, something he could not accept.
What he regretted most was that if he hadn’t been worried about frightening her, the villain’s life would have already been ended by his hands.
“Woo…” Being able to nestle in his strong and robust chest was what Mimi had been longing for day and night, but at this moment, she felt extremely disappointed, because besides fear and grievance, she couldn’t feel any happiness at all. Seeing her unhappiness, his heart ached like being cut by a knife. To comfort her, Gu Feiyang picked up the TV remote and changed the channel. The TV screen flickered a few times and then showed four young men with impressive physiques. They exuded a noble temperament. One of them was Gu Feiyang, from a scene when he was seventeen years old in England. Four young and handsome men were enthusiastically examining a treasure chest larger than a suitcase. “Look at those young men on the TV,” Gu Feiyang said while stroking her hair. “They come from prestigious families, each spanning both political and business circles. Top-tier executives in Taiwan.”
“The one who looks expressionless is Yin Tan, who particularly likes to be alone, with an autocratic and arrogant personality.”
“The one showing a bright white smile is Fang Zi Mo, a guy with a somewhat strange and irritable temper, lacking patience, but he’s a very impressive man, currently living in a mysterious castle in Taiwan.”
“The other, with darker skin, is called Di Chuo. This guy has a quite savage personality, completely unreasonable, and it’s hard to win an argument with him. Trying to compete with him for something is simply courting death.”
“Last year at the cross-border agency rights auction party, this guy won the bid with 500 billion dollars. I didn’t bother to raise the price because I knew he would never back down, and it would just drag on endlessly, wasting my time…”
“These three men can be considered my best friends, or they can be considered my enemies. The four of us often take advantage of rare free time to get together and go on adventures.”
Mimi raised her little face, focusing intently on the TV, sniffled, and her body trembled before stopping her crying. She buried her face in Gu Feiyang’s chest, quietly staring at the television, her hands tightly gripping his clothes, afraid that if she let go, he would abandon her.
“Once we decided to explore deep under the sea near Hong Kong,” Gu Feiyang continued. “In the unfathomably deep sea bottom, we accidentally found a pirate ship that was at least ten times the size of this villa.”
Weimei listened quietly, no longer feeling any fear in her heart, replaced by an intoxicating sense of safety and an overwhelming feeling of happiness.
“At the time, we almost searched the entire ship and finally found a large treasure chest inside the broken ship. And you would never believe what we discovered when we pried open the chest – it was truly unbelievable! Really, it was so magical, hidden in the chest was—”
Ka— The door was suddenly opened.
Gu Feiyang turned his head, looking dissatisfied at his playboy father who had finally decided to come home.
Chapter 5 “You finally made it back! How could you leave her alone outside? Do you know how close she was to getting into trouble?” “Really? What happened?” Gu Datong was shocked, his inquiring tone filled with worry. He quickly sat down on the sofa, looking at Mimi with a heartbroken expression, who seemed a bit dazed. “Boss…” Mimi called out listlessly.
To be honest, Mimi really wanted to know what was hidden in the treasure chest. But she was exhausted and couldn’t hold on any longer. She felt so tired, and Ancient Feiyang’s chest was so comfortable. After mumbling a few words, she fell asleep in his warm embrace.
“How is this child like this? Falling asleep just like that!” Gu Datong looked impressed.
“Let her sleep. She was terrified,” Ancient Feiyang frowned dissatisfiedly. “You should hire a few servants to watch the house or get a guard dog.”
Gu Datong jumped up and shouted, “What are you talking about! Feiyang, you haven’t told me what exactly happened at home.”
“A few minutes ago, a thug broke into the house and stole a sound system, and was coincidentally discovered by this weak woman who is powerless, and she was stupid enough to chase after him—”
“Oh my God! What did you say? A weak woman with no strength? I’m about to die laughing! Son, when did you regress to ancient times? Why has your speech become so literary? It’s too funny!” Gu Datong laughed exaggeratedly.
“It’s not funny, okay? She was almost assaulted, father.”
