Recalling what seemed to have happened just yesterday, two years ago, the day she officially signed the contract and joined the ranks of hitmen… That day, she obediently followed her mother’s last words and went to the Gu Corporation to seek the boss’s protection. She was supposed to go to the left department, but she mistakenly stepped into the right department, accidentally breaking into the hitman organization established by the Gu Corporation in the right department.
She discovered many cold-blooded killers who killed without blinking. She found various weapons and guns. She discovered the boss’s little secret of getting rich and learned that he wasn’t entirely self-made – half of his wealth was actually gained through killing.
At the time, everyone stared at her in shock, stunned by how she had intruded into the hitman organization. She still remembered the boss’s awkward expression and his words to her in front of all the hitmen: “Mimi, since you’ve discovered my secret, you only have one choice: to work for me. You must become a professional female hitwoman. Once you become my hitwoman, you can never reveal my secrets. Even if you are my lover’s daughter and want to betray me, I will not hesitate to take your life.”
She was timid and afraid, worried that she would be silenced. To save her own life, she thus joined the ranks of hitmen.
She thought that since she had entered the profession, she must make people respect her. She was determined to be a competent professional killer, so she spent a lot of time every day learning gun and knife skills. She wanted an opportunity to stand out, wanted the boss’s approval and praise, and also wanted to make a fortune, so she earnestly begged the boss to give her a chance to prove herself. Today’s mission was one she had fought hard to obtain, and she must seize this opportunity well – success was the only option, failure was not allowed.
“Meow meow—” The persistent wild cat’s cry pulled her wandering thoughts back. Seeing the wild cat’s fur standing on end and making a defensive posture, Mimi bared her teeth and made an even more ferocious expression than a cat. “What’s wrong? Do you want to bite me?”
Swish—the curtain was suddenly pulled open. Instantly, a tall and sturdy figure appeared in the window, blocking the bright indoor light. Mimi quickly crouched down, unexpectedly discovering that the lawn below was casting a shadow of the tall man standing at the window frame, along with… her own! She was dead meat, her shadow…
“Who is it?!” The man’s voice sounded stern and low, with a hint of an English accent. A foreigner? Oh no, this was embarrassing. Mimi was so scared her intestines were about to twist into a knot. She shrugged her shoulders, closed her beautiful big eyes, and continuously muttered in her heart.
Never mind, strike first! Everyone for themselves, heaven and earth be damned, it’s better he dies than her! Mimi hastily pulled out a short knife from her boot and shot it into the room without thinking!
Whoosh—”Ah!”
Suddenly, a string of male curses echoed inside the room. Bang! Then came the sound of a large object falling to the floor. Yeah! Mission accomplished! Long live! Sure enough, the boss misjudged her – she’s truly a talented female assassin! Look how she eliminated the target without wasting a single bullet. It seems occasional practice of her knife-throwing technique was the right choice, see, it came in handy now? Hehe, the boss will definitely look at her with new respect.
“For safety’s sake, I should go in and check if Gu Shao-xiong is dead, and confirm it’s really Gu Shao-xiong’s body, that would be more appropriate.” Although the boss said Gu Shao-xiong was a solitary elderly man, what if he happened to have guests today? Huh? A solitary elderly man?! Thinking this, Mimi suddenly realized something was wrong. The man’s voice from earlier didn’t sound old at all, and even had a foreign accent! Wrongful killing?! Terrible, terrible, terrible! A mistaken killing would be disastrous!
Thinking this, Mimi hurriedly got up, wanting to climb through the window to investigate. Whoosh——
Gu Fei-yang, who had just finished bathing, was bare-chested, revealing his tall and muscular physique. He casually grabbed a large bath towel, covering his head, and then strolled to the bedside, picking up the cigarette on the bedside table, just about to light it when he heard an unusual cat cry from outside the window.
By the roadside near the seaside, there was a grove of trees where wild cats occasionally made strange sounds due to being in heat, which was not unusual. However, today’s cat cries seemed somewhat peculiar, as if they were preparing to attack. Gu Feiyang couldn’t help but furrow his thick eyebrows. It was possible that two male cats were about to fight over a female cat! That wouldn’t do. Gu Feiyang deeply despised wild cats in heat, and he needed to chase them away to prevent them from sneaking into the house.
Gu Feiyang walked to the window, opened the curtains and window, and immediately saw a shadow cast on the garden lawn. Was there someone outside?! Gu Feiyang’s narrow black eyes suddenly shot out a cold light. “Who’s there?”
Whoosh! Suddenly, a white light swept across the window frame—with a clang, the white light finally landed on the floor beneath the window. That super big idiot outside, why would they throw a knife inside? It was completely nonsensical!
Gu Feiyang was about to lean out the window to investigate, but in his urgency, he stepped on a large bath towel that had fallen to the floor, and his body uncontrollably fell backward. “Damn!” Gu Feiyang cursed angrily.
But in an instant, with his agile body, he had already leaped up from the floor. Gu Feiyang rushed to the window in a rage. At this moment, Mimi’s head also just emerged from the window—and their foreheads collided directly.
“Ah—” Mimi cried out in pain, her entire body thrown back by his forehead.
Due to the extremely narrow waterway, she suddenly stepped into the void in a panic. “Be careful!” Gu Feiyang instinctively reached out with lightning speed, sensitively grasping her fair wrist and pulling her forcefully into the room. Fortunately, his reaction was quick enough, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Suddenly, he caught a fragrance in his nose. Her scent was like a fragrant orchid seemingly calling to his soul—Gu Feiyang’s face turned slightly pale, and he was stunned, releasing his hand that had been gripping her fair wrist. The scent of the young woman before him seemed to have a soul-capturing effect, as if it could confuse his mind in an instant. He did not like this feeling. Thinking this, a hint of gloom covered Gu Feiyang’s handsome face.
“Phew, that was close!” Mimi, thinking she would definitely have broken her leg this time, let out a breath and colla
Her beautiful eyes gradually moved upward, passing over his furry calves, then his muscular thighs, finally stopping at a super sexy bullet-shaped underwear—Good heavens! That… that… Mimi swallowed, and a shy blush instantly spread across her cheeks, her entire face turning as red as a ripe pomegranate. Her gaze continued to move upward, carefully observing the man’s healthy bronze skin, his firm waist and abdomen, and his muscular, lean upper body.
Broad shoulders… Her eyes suddenly became fixed because she met a pair of deep, dark pupils. Instantly, she felt like she was struck by electricity, her heart racing. The slightly English-accented voice made her think he was a foreigner, but who would have expected an Oriental man with black hair and black pupils, exuding masculine charm.
