“Don’t say that.” Fang Xinxin tapped on his lips. “We’re husband and wife. No matter what happens, we will endure the good times and hardships together.”
He was deeply moved by her words and embraced her tightly. “In this third attack, the men sent by the enemy are all escaped convicts. They entered the country illegally and do not have any identity documents on them. However, Li Bingpan was first approached by someone from the organisation. I’ve already sent Ya Lun to personally follow that man. I believe we will soon be able to obtain the truth.”
“En.”
“When we identify the people, I’ll destroy their entire organisation!” Rage flashed past Bai Qinghao’s cold gaze.
She urged him concernedly. “Hubby, you have to be careful. The mastermind seems to be playing a long game. The first time they attempted to ambush you was two years ago. The second time was a little while ago and the third time was today. We have no way of predicting when they might strike again.”
In their previous life, the enemy had still been pursuing Bai Qinghao ten years later.
At the time, she had both been paralysed and blind. Worse, she had become Bai Qinghao’s hurdle. When they fell from the rooftop of that building, he had used his own body as a cushion and sacrificed his life in order to protect her.
If she hadn’t been his burden at the time, perhaps he wouldn’t have died.
At the thought of this, Fang Xinxin’s heart was enveloped by severe pain.
“For your sake, I will definitely pay attention to my safety.” Bai Qinghao embraced his wife tightly and swore internally that he would prioritize her safety first and ensure she would not face anymore dangers.
…
Several days later, Ya Lun, who had been investigating this matter, disappeared.
The last message they received from Ya Lun detailed how he was pursuing the man who came into contact with Li Bingpan. He had been slowly unravelling the mystery and discovered that this matter was related to the Blood Fiend Alliance operating outside of the borders.
Bai Qinghao narrowed his eyes. He had never interacted with the Blood Fiend Alliance. Why would they make repeated attempts on his life?
However, most of such organisations comprised of assassins, who were willing to sell their lives for money.
Perhaps, someone had offered a price for his life?
In that case, it certainly had to be a large sum of money. Only a few individuals would be able to offer it.
With a target identified, he quickly sent his men to investigate if any of his competitors had mysteriously lost a large sum of money in the past two years.
Bai Qinghao was not someone who would wait for the enemy to appear.
Ya Lun was his capable subordinate, as well someone who could be considered a… friend.
He needed to go rescue him.
Furthermore, he had already commanded Hei Xiao’s people to identify the Blood Fiend Alliance’s nest. He planned to personally bring them to ruin after confirming their location.
“My wife, are you interested in living in Hei Xiao’s headquarters for a period of time?” In the Yu Ting Villa’s yard, Bai Qinghao embraced Fang Xinxin and pressed a kiss against her forehead.
The last place Ya Lun visited before he went off the grids was an island near the Pacific Ocean. It was very likely that the Blood Fiend Alliance’s old nest was located right there.
The Blood Fiend Alliance was not an ordinary group. He needed to personally deal with them.
However, before leaving, he needed to arrange a suitable place for Fang Xinxin.
Hei Xiao’s headquarters was well-hidden and it was occupied by many of the best assassins in the world. If she stayed there, she would most definitely be well-protected.
She lifted her chin to look at him. “You’re finally admitting that you’re Hei Xiao’s mastermind?”
“Didn’t you already guess it?” He lifted his palms and carrassed her soft hair dotingly. “The mastermind of an organisation of assassins will only be even more cruel.”
His sharp gaze watched her closely. “Are you afraid of me?”
She shook her head. “I don’t even have enough time to love you. How could I possibly be afraid?”
His frozen heart was deeply shaken by her words. “My wife, I love you too.”
I love you far more than I value my own life.
He added these words silently.
