"Follow me from now on! I'm about to undertake an assassination mission. You can come with me and we'll complete it together. I'll split the reward with you!" Jiang Yi said.
Shi Jin's face lit up with excitement upon hearing this.
However, Shi Jin's brow quickly furrowed.
"The gap in our skills is too vast. If I accompany you on this mission with my current abilities, I'll likely be a burden to you!" Shi Jin said.
"It's fine!"
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow.
"You just need to help me with some simple tasks!"
Shi Jin's face was filled with gratitude.
He knew Jiang Yi was trying to help him earn more money.
"Mr. Jiang, you're too good to me! You know, if you just gave me money directly, I wouldn't accept it. You're using this method to let me earn it, so I have no reason to refuse," Shi Jin said.
Jiang Yi was momentarily stunned, surprised that Shi Jin had become so perceptive.
"It's getting late, let's go!"
Jiang Yi said to Shi Jin.
"Okay!"
Shi Jin responded and quickly followed Jiang Yi.
After leaving Wan Hui Company, Jiang Yi and Shi Jin reached the street outside the main entrance.
"Go back and see Ya Ya! Take good care of her. Come find me in three days, and I'll take you on the mission!"
Jiang Yi gave Shi Jin the address of the villa.
"Okay!"
Shi Jin nodded.
Jiang Yi didn't say anything further and hailed a car back to the villa.
Jiang Yi had intended to avoid Dongfang Mei, but to his surprise, she was not at the villa.
Apart from himself, only the servants remained in the entire villa.
The vast villa suddenly felt rather quiet.
"I didn't expect you to be back so soon!"
A voice suddenly echoed from outside the hall.
Jiang Yi looked up and saw Dongfang Mei, with Yingzi following behind her.
Jiang Yi recalled Dongfang Mei's earlier words and was taken aback.
"Are you following me again?" Jiang Yi asked.
"You could say that!"
Dongfang Mei sat on the sofa and said, "You left the villa so sneakily this morning, and I suspected something was amiss. So, I secretly followed you. I never expected you to apply to be a bodyguard at Wan Hui Company. It truly surprised me."
"That's right, I did apply to be a bodyguard! I wasn't looking for other women," Jiang Yi said.
"It's not as simple as just being a bodyguard, is it?"
Dongfang Mei's gaze fell upon Jiang Yi.
"I've had dealings with Wan Hui Company before. This company is not as simple as it appears on the surface, and your going to this company isn't just to be a bodyguard."
Jiang Yi's brow furrowed slightly.
Dongfang Mei was indeed sharp; she had even guessed this.
"I had Yingzi spar with the bodyguards from Wan Hui Company and discovered that their combat skills were formidable, and every move was a killing strike. If I'm not mistaken, Wan Hui Company, which appears to be a bodyguard company on the surface, is actually an assassin organization, isn't it?"
Dongfang Mei looked at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi was stunned!
Dongfang Mei was too intelligent.
"You're solely interested in the assassin organization that murdered your parents back then. If I'm not mistaken, Wan Hui Company is that same assassin organization, isn't it?" Dongfang Mei said to Jiang Yi with a playful tone.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
It seemed he couldn't hide anything from Dongfang Mei.
"I told you I would help you, and it's useless even if you refuse. I've already sent people to keep an eye on Wan Hui Company!" Dongfang Mei said. "Tell me, how exactly do you plan to deal with this assassin organization!"
Jiang Yi looked at Dongfang Mei.
Now that he couldn't hide it any longer.
"Alright, you can help me, but you must listen to me!" Jiang Yi said.
"No problem, I'll listen to you!"
Dongfang Mei smiled alluringly.
"You still haven't told me what your plan is."
"My plan is very simple!"
Jiang Yi said, "First, I'll infiltrate Wan Hui Company, get a clear picture of their situation, and eliminate some assassins to weaken their strength. When the time is right, we'll annihilate Wan Hui Company in one fell swoop!" Su Dan Novel Network
"Then what can I do now?" Dongfang Mei asked.
Jiang Yi thought for a moment and said, "For now, help me investigate the master of the Tai Chi martial arts school and those ten martial artists. See if they are people who deserve to be killed or not!"
"There's no need for an investigation! None of the people at the Tai Chi martial arts school are good!" Dongfang Mei said.
Afterwards, Dongfang Mei told Jiang Yi everything the Tai Chi martial arts school had done.
It turned out that Dongfang Mei knew so much about the Tai Chi martial arts school because a child from the Dongfang family had gone missing some time ago. The Dongfang family immediately deployed their informants to search.
They eventually discovered that the child had been abducted by people from the Tai Chi martial arts school!
The Tai Chi martial arts school was actually a human trafficking organization. Although their power wasn't immense, they had a large number of people, and those ten martial artists possessed astonishing skills.
The Dongfang family had secretly hired assassins to eliminate the Tai Chi martial arts school.
"My mission is to kill the master of the Tai Chi martial arts school and those dozen or so martial artists. Are you guys from the Dongfang family the employers?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Do you have the details?" Dongfang Mei asked.
"Yes!"
Jiang Yi handed the file bag that Manager Yang had given him to Dongfang Mei.
After reading it, Dongfang Mei burst into laughter.
"What a coincidence. These details were indeed provided by our Dongfang family to Wan Hui Company. It seems you are the assassin hired by our Dongfang family!"
After saying that, Dongfang Mei took a deep breath.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yi asked.
"I originally wanted to help you, but now, I can't help you with anything!" Dongfang Mei said.
"Since you want to help so much, I'll let you help me with a big matter!"
Jiang Yi's gaze fell upon Dongfang Mei, and he said, "From now on, you will be the employer, and I will be responsible for dealing with those assassins from Wan Hui Company. Wan Hui Company has a rule: as long as an employer buys the lives of Wan Hui Company's assassins, Wan Hui Company will not interfere!"
"No problem!"
Dongfang Mei agreed!
"But you must promise me not to expose your identity, otherwise, you might be targeted by Wan Hui Company," Jiang Yi said.
"I didn't expect you to care so much about me. It seems you still have me in your heart," Dongfang Mei said with an alluring smile.
"There's one more thing!"
Jiang Yi said to Dongfang Mei, "My identity could be exposed at any moment, so we must prepare for the worst. I've already thought about it. Once my identity is exposed, I will act directly. At that time, you absolutely must not get involved. I don't want anything to happen to you."
"Okay!"
Dongfang Mei nodded.
Although Dongfang Mei agreed verbally, she didn't agree in her heart.
If something happened to Jiang Yi, Dongfang Mei would certainly not stand idly by.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Jiang Yi left the villa.
Jiang Yi intended to act tonight and deal with the Tai Chi martial arts school.
However, before that, he needed to find Shi Jin.
