Chapter 336: Killing Intent
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“No way! Sect Master has always arranged things between him and Master Zhan to heart. Sect Master wouldn’t break his word. Gui Mo isn’t easy to capture!” Murong Jing’s tone was firm.
Besides, Sect Master only wants you, granted he wanted someone to seize. You are the mastermind of the hackers. What’s the point of arresting Gui Mo?” “Then what might have happened to him?” Shi Qian was puzzled.
Murong Jing thought momentarily. She said, “But you don’t have to worry too much. Gui Mo occasionally disappears for a few days. No one could contact him.”
“He occasionally disappears before?” Shi Qian asked.
“Yes, but that was long ago,” Murong Jing replied.
“Alright, 1’11 contact him again in a few days.”
“Yes, if he still doesn’t respond in a few days, remember to tell me.”
“Alright.”
Two figures appeared at a Western restaurant.
Su Jinxuan and Shi Muxue sat at the dining table.
Shi Muxue held the cutlery. She laid so much of her attention on the knife than the steak.
She hid a hint of killing intent in her dark eyes. She had already had enough of that sl*t, Shi Qian, hovering over her. She hoped that she would disappear one day.
However, that b*tch knew martial arts now, and she was strong.
Ordinary methods definitely wouldn’t be able to take her life.
Perhaps she could consider hiring assassins, but she did not have the resources in this area. She had to think of a way.
Su Jinxuan saw she held the knife and fork in her hand and did not move for long. She seemed in a daze, so he called out to her. “Xue’er.”
Shi Muxue jolted to her senses. She looked up at him. “What’s wrong? Brother Xuan.”
“What are you thinking about?” Su Jinxuan asked with a smile. “You’re so engrossed in your thoughts!”
Shi Muxue smiled embarrassedly and replied, “Oh, I was thinking about what to wear to the banquet with Director Zhuang this weekend.”
“Zhuang Shuyu, the dean of your department?” Su Jinxuan asked.
“Yes, it’s her.”
“I heard that she’s from the Jiang Family,” Su Jinxuan said.
“The Jiang Family?” Shi Muxue feigned surprise. “The Jiang Family of the four great families?”
“Yes. It’s the Jiang Family of the four great families,” Su Jinxuan said.
“Is that so?” Shi Muxue smiled. “1 don’t know. I don’t care about that. It’s just that the manor lord has always treated me very well, so 1 agreed to accompany her to the banquet.”
“I know you don’t care about this.” Su Jinxuan chuckled. “However, it will be good for you to go to the banquet with her. Zhuang Shuyu has connections and can bring you to see more of the world, although she is only the adopted daughter of the Jiang Family.”
“Okay.” Shi Muxue smiled gently.
She hoped to meet more high-level people at the banquet and that she would surpass all the men around Shi Qian.
Their status must at least be similar if she couldn’t surpass her.
She had already asked around. The current head of the Jiang Family was Second Young Master Jiang.
He was young and handsome.
Master Jiang and Sheng Xu were of the same status. She would no longer have to be afraid of Sheng Xu if she could get in touch with Second Young Master Jiang and gain his favor.
At first, she liked Sheng Xu, but Sheng Xu defended that b*tch Shi Qian time and time again.
That disappointed Shi Muxue. She no longer had any hope for Sheng Xu from there on. She simply turned her attention to the Jiang Family.
It would be easier for her to reach the Jiang Family with Zhuang Shuyu’s connection.
Su Jinxuan was unaware of Shi Muxue’s wishful thinking, and all that mattered to him was Shi Muxue.
“I’ll help you choose a dress for the banquet after dinner.”
Shi Muxue appeared very happy. And then she said, “Wouldn’t it be too troublesome for you?”
Su Jinxuan held her hand. “Xue’er, we’re already a couple now. As your boyfriend, I should do whatever I can for you.”
“Thank you, Brother Xuan,” Shi Muxue said shyly..
