"I'm leaving, and the Guo family won't let me off the hook, right? Since you don't want to kill me, let me stay by your side!"
"I don't want to stay here anymore, because I've never liked anything about this place!"
The Snow Country beauty said, crying, her eyes red and swollen.
"What do you mean? Are you clinging to me?"
Hearing this, Lu Yang was instantly speechless. He hadn't expected this Snow Country beauty to not want to leave and to want to stay by his side. If Shen Yiman saw this, she would surely skin him alive.
"Let me tell you the truth, I'm actually a mixed-blood from Snow Country and Hua Country. I grew up in Hua Country and I don't know who my parents are. Maybe they're already dead!"
"When I was six years old, I was captured by the Zhao family and locked into their secret laboratory. That secret laboratory was called the Swallow Camp, a place specifically for training female assassins. Not only could these female assassins kill, but they were also proficient in calligraphy, chess, painting, and literature. They also understood economics, politics, and finance, and could learn eight languages. We lived inhuman lives every day. Anyone who couldn't keep up was immediately taken away. I don't know where they were taken, but they never returned!"
"I was considered fortunate; my learning ability was very strong, and I was eventually selected as a female assassin. You are my first mission, but I don't want to kill you. I just want to be a real woman for one night, and then leave this place, or die here!"
"However, the latter is highly likely, because the Zhao family's influence permeates the entire Yanjing. It's not easy to escape from here!"
As she spoke, a gentle look filled the female assassin's eyes.
"Can you fulfill this small wish of mine?"
The female assassin looked at Lu Yang and asked.
"What's your name?"
"My code name is Lan Fenghuang. As for my real name, I don't have one!"
Lan Fenghuang looked at Lu Yang and said.
"Lan Fenghuang, it's not like you're an animal, to have such a name, it sounds really unpleasant. How about you take my surname, Lu? You can be called Lu Wushuang, what do you think?"
Lu Yang looked at the female assassin and said with a smile.
"Lu Wushuang? That's a good name! Thank you, sir. I don't know your name yet, do I?"
Lu Wushuang quickly thanked Lu Yang.
"My name is Lu Yang!"
"Seeing how pitiful your background is, how about this, I'll take you away from Yanjing? After all, I've already made an enemy of the Guo family. They want to kill me, so it doesn't matter about you. Once I leave Yanjing, you'll be free!"
Lu Yang looked at Lu Wushuang and said with a smile.
"Free?"
"Thank you, sir. But I want to stay by your side and serve you forever, because you gave me life. I, Lu Wushuang, am not someone who repays kindness with ingratitude!"
Lu Wushuang said directly to Lu Yang.
"Hey, I've already said that I can't have women around me. How about this, after we leave Yanjing, you can think about it again. After all, you haven't escaped yet, and your true feelings haven't been revealed!"
Lu Yang said lightly.
"No matter where we are, I will always follow you, sir!"
Lu Wushuang continued.
"Alright, whatever you say. I'm going to sleep. You can sleep here tonight, and I'll sleep next door."
After speaking, Lu Yang left Lu Wushuang's room.
"I didn't expect there to be such a good man in the world. I must follow him forever, even if I die, I want to die by his side!"
Lu Wushuang thought to herself.
Lu Yang quickly returned to the private room. Huang Zhihua was already drunk and, hugging Lu Yang, he said with a smile, "How is it? Aren't these two beauties good? I guarantee they'll serve you comfortably tonight!"
"Old Huang, you've had too much to drink. You should go back and rest early."
Lu Yang observed the other women and found that none of them were assassins, which finally put his mind at ease. After all, training such assassins was not easy. With a 5% success rate, out of a hundred people, only five would succeed, and the remaining ninety-five would be dealt with.
Lu Yang just hadn't expected the Guo family to make a move against him so quickly.
"It seems the Guo family truly hates me. Since Lu Wushuang couldn't kill me, they must have a backup plan!"
Lu Yang thought lightly.
Lu Yang didn't take this matter to heart. He would deal with challenges as they came. Moreover, he was now a lieutenant general, and it was impossible for them to kill him in public. They could only resort to these underhanded tactics.
"Tomorrow, I'll go see Flying Tiger King first, and then head to Jinling!"
After thinking about these things, Lu Yang went to sleep.
The next morning, upon waking up, Lu Wushuang had already prepared breakfast and brought it to Lu Yang's room.
"Sir, it's time for breakfast!"
Lu Wushuang looked at Lu Yang and said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Lu Yang thanked her and ate heartily. After breakfast, Lu Yang looked at Lu Wushuang and said, "Wait for me at the hotel now. I have some errands to run!"
"Okay!"
Lu Wushuang nodded obediently.
Soon, Lingque King's car stopped at the entrance of the club.
"I originally thought you were a decent person, but I didn't expect you to be like other scummy men!"
Lingque King glanced at Lu Yang coldly.
"If I told you I didn't do anything last night, just had a bit to drink, would you believe me?"
Lu Yang smiled slightly and asked Lingque King.
"I believe you my foot!"
Lingque King didn't believe Lu Yang at all and stomped on the accelerator, driving towards Flying Tiger King's residence.
Flying Tiger King also had a private villa, built next to Yanshan Mountain. Yanshan is the most famous mountain in Yanjing. At the foot of the mountain lies the Qing Dynasty imperial mausoleum, where countless Qing Dynasty emperors are buried. Those who can reside in villas next to Yanshan Mountain are all people of extremely distinguished status.
When Lingque King brought Lu Yang to Flying Tiger King's residence, someone was already treating Flying Tiger King. The person was none other than Niu Wenshan, the leading figure in traditional Chinese medicine in Yanjing, nicknamed "Ghost's Sorrow." His acupuncture skills were renowned worldwide, specializing in treating all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases.
This person enjoyed wandering around the world and was often nowhere to be found. It took Flying Tiger King two years to find Ghost's Sorrow to treat his illness.
All of Flying Tiger King's descendants were gathered in his room, watching Ghost's Sorrow treat him.
"Lingque, why are you here?"
Seeing Lingque King bring Lu Yang into the villa, a man in his thirties immediately greeted them with a smile. He was Zhong Li, Flying Tiger King's eldest son and successor, whose cultivation was terrifying.
During Flying Tiger King's illness, Zhong Li had already taken over the Flying Tiger Guards.
"Zhong Li, let me introduce you, this is Lu Yang!"
Lingque King looked at Zhong Li and introduced him.
