Chapter 483: Chapter 483_1 Chapter 483: Chapter 483_1 “Not at all.” He was puzzled himself. There were a few times when the mysterious man suddenly turned back, and his falcon-like eyes were piercingly sharp, enough to scare anyone.
But strangely enough, Bei Yan couldn’t see himself for some reason!
He had no idea that it was because Qiao Xiaren had sent a few little ghosts to follow and protect him. Even if the mysterious man noticed someone was following him, he would have no chance of spotting Bei Yan.
Jun, Bei Yan, Dark Night Organization.
Once these little ghosts report back, I can confirm if these three entities are connected. The usually elusive man showing up alongside Qiao Anchu is no small matter.
Qiao Xiaren used Qiao Anchu as bait to lure out the man because the little ghosts couldn’t pinpoint his exact location. Even Xiaotian remarked that the man’s aura was unstable and disturbingly eerie.
He seemed to have a unique field around him that could block anyone or anything. His elusive manner was quite similar to those of the Dark Night.
So, she started to have her suspicions.
There was no way Xiaren could get to him as long as he remained hidden. However, Qiao Xiaren was never one to sit back passively. She liked keeping matters in her own hands.
This sense of having the enemy in the dark while she was in the light unnerved Qiao Xiaren and got on her nerves.
Little did she expect, the man indeed made an appearance.
“I have booked your flight for tomorrow afternoon. You are to tail Qiao Anchu the whole trip. There’s no need to worry about being discovered. Just do as I say, and you will be fine. Also, keep an eye for any changes in Anchu’s appearance, there’s an eighty percent chance she had plastic surgery.”
The Qiao family’s bodyguard agreed without second thoughts, just like how he had ungrudgingly trusted in the late Master Qiao, he now placed his faith in Qiao Xiaren.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Xiaren set her mobile aside, seemingly deep in thought.
“Qiaoqiao, aren’t you afraid that this could backfire? Qiao Anchu is a big problem, what if she starts stirring up trouble when she comes back?”
Xiaotian sighed. Despite sounding like a child, his voice was as serious as an adult’s. “I think I understand why Weini has mixed feelings for you. Following Qiaoqiao is like riding a roller coaster, with its ups and downs.”
Qiao Xiaren replied in a calm voice. “The real trouble is not Qiao Anchu, but that mysterious man. From the start, my real enemy, I suspect, is Bei Yan.”
While she spoke, several faint shadows passed by in front of her eyes, as if they had something to say to Qiao Xiaren.
The little ghosts crowded forward, suddenly causing a chilling wind to gust in the living room. If Aunt Ping were to come up at this moment, she would certainly faint from fear.
“What’s the matter? Speak slowly.”
Qiao Xiaren leaned back on her sofa, raising her eyes slightly, calm and composed.
“Master, we followed that big man in black and have located the Dark Night’s exact location. The young master of the Dark Night is named Jun.”
The ‘big guy’ was obviously the bodyguard’s nickname they had given him.
So it was the same person.
“Very well. In the next few months, you will probably have to continue shadowing that ‘big guy’, protecting him, ensuring he stays undetected by the people of the Dark Night.”
The little ghosts nodded and vanished in a puff of smoke.
“Qiaoqiao, what do you plan to do next?” Xiaotian’s voice echoed in her mind again.
“Don’t rush. I’m well aware of the ins and outs of this organization. It’s not just about controlling the basic business of assassinations and corporate warfare. They’ve been involved in foreign arms dealing in its prior existence and essentially control the overall situation in Asia. Now that I think about it, they probably had a hand in the arms dealing and astonishing profits back then.”
