172 Night for Murder
After Dong Peng heard this, he patted himself and forced himself to be energetic. His eyes were no longer dull. “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I won’t let those vicious wolves watching the show outside have an opportunity.”
“Then I’ll go back first, Master. There are two bodyguards arranged at the door. They’ll change shifts every two hours. You can call them if you need anything.”
Dong Peng did not say anything else. He waved his hand and gestured for his assistant to leave. Turning around, he looked at the materials beside him. After all, this piece of land was already worth hundreds of millions. The value of his future wealth was immeasurable, but…
He turned to look at Dong Yan, who was lying on the bed. These were nothing compared to Yan’er.
For some reason, there was a rustling sound outside the window. Dong Peng walked to the window and looked around. He did not pay much attention to it. Thinking that it was the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, he closed half the window.
A few seconds after Dong Peng turned around and sat by the bed, a figure flashed past the window. Then, the half-closed window was opened, and a squeak attracted Dong Peng’s attention.
At this moment, a man in a black suit and a mask was already standing quietly in the ward. What frightened Dong Peng even more was the two short knives at his waist.
“Who are you! Bodyguards!” Dong Peng shouted subconsciously, but there was no movement outside the door.
The assassin looked at Dong Yan, who was lying on the bed. He compared the photo in his hand and confirmed that he was the target of his assassination mission.
Although his face was covered, Dong Peng could still hear the killer’s cold laughter. “Bodyguards? Are you talking about the two people lying outside the door? Don’t waste your energy. They won’t wake up until tomorrow morning. My target isn’t you. Get lost now. I can consider not killing you.”
With that, the assassin pulled out the short knife from his waist.
At this moment, Shan Yue, who was preparing to get the certifications for the land at night, smelled a faint fragrance in the air as soon as she stepped out of the elevator.
“It’s actually… Phantom Fragrance.” She emphasized the last two words. The familiar thing instantly made the past images appear in Shan Yue’s mind. This kind of fragrance was only used by people in the organization. It could make people sleep soundly for the entire night. Why did it appear here?
Shan Yue suddenly had a bad feeling. She held her breath and walked out of the elevator. When she saw the two bodyguards lying on the ground outside Dong Yan’s ward at the far end of the corridor, she instantly understood what was going on.
Someone wanted to kill Dong Yan!
In the room, Dong Peng protected Dong Yan desperately. “He’s my son. How much money did the person who bought his life give you? I can give you double… Oh, no, five times. And I won’t track you down. Please let him go.”
“I’m sorry, we have our own principles.” With that, the assassin went forward and knocked Dong Peng down. He came to the bed and was about to stab Dong Yan.
At this critical moment, Shan Yue kicked open the door. Taking advantage of the moment when the assassin looked at her, she leaped to the bed and kicked the assassin away as fast as lightning to have an intimate contact with the wall.
“You’re really courting death. The three of you will die tonight!” The assassin scrambled to his feet, swinging his double blades.
However, Shan Yue snorted in disdain. “Hmph, you want to kill me?” When she became famous in the organization, this person in front of her had yet to enter. How dare he show off his lousy skills?
Shan Yue rushed out, leaving a phantom on the spot. She arrived behind the assassin at lightning speed. The assassin did not even have time to react before the back of his neck hurt.
Seeing this, the assassin raised his knife and rushed at Shan Yue again. Shan Yue was not flustered. She took a side step, turned around, and nimbly avoided the attack. She grabbed the assassin’s wrist with both hands at the right time. After cleverly diverting the force, he could no longer exert force, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.
The assassin who had lost his knife instantly panicked. He was shocked. He actually… could not defeat a teenage girl.
