Chapter 561: Chapter 560: How About Recognizing a God-Sister?

Pff, such a big deal!

Both he and Ye Jinwen aren’t fools, Qimo’s face that morning clearly wasn’t looking too good!

“Did Qimo take advantage of you while he was drunk?” Yun Sang continued to gossip.

Lu Mian didn’t catch his implication at all, and shook her head seriously, “That’s not possible.

We simply had an in-depth discussion about human anatomy.”

An in-depth discussion…

Human anatomy…

“…” Yun Sang almost bit his tongue.

Mo Si was completely dumbfounded.

Lu Mian, thinking back to the night when Director Qimo had instructed her that the matter should not be disclosed, had no intention of saying more.

However, she was somewhat curious and glanced at Yun Sang, who seemed unconcerned as he spoke while holding a hamburger, “Yun Sang, you seem particularly interested in Director Qimo’s affairs.”

Yun Sang leaned back, incredulous, “Sister, what are you thinking?”

“Isn’t it so?” Lu Mian countered, “Or are you concerned about me?”

“…”

With that comment, Yun Sang didn’t know how to respond, and left with a prideful retort of “In your dreams,” without saying anything else.

Yun Sang took several bites of his burger, his mind seemingly elsewhere.

Once Lu Mian was satisfied from her sneaky eating, the leader standing obediently beside them finally mustered the courage to step forward.

“Miss Lu, do you think I and my brothers…”

Lu Mian was a logical person; she knew their job was to do just that, they weren’t inherently evil, so she nodded readily.

“You can go.”

The leader, with his swollen, puffy face, immediately burst into tears, moved beyond words.

“Thank you, Miss Lu, thank you, thank you…” he repeated his thanks profusely.

Mo Si was a little anxious, “Miss Lu, you’re really just letting them go?”

Yun Sang also looked at Lu Mian with some concern.

This girl was way too soft-hearted.

How could she let these kinds of people go!

Lu Mian slowly wiped the cheese from the corner of her lips with a napkin, remaining silent.

But as the leader was stepping out the door, just as he and his ten brothers were rejoicing over the good news, they received a message from the Mercenary Alliance.

The little pep in his step immediately stalled.

A chill ran from his toes to his head, his whole body ice cold.

After what seemed like forever, he turned stiffly to look back at Lu Mian, his eyes filled with numerous meanings.

If just a moment ago they were polite and respectful to Lu Mian out of fear for their own lives because of her formidable fist, now, as he looked at her again, his gaze had completely changed.

From trying to ingratiate themselves to a bone-deep reverence and fear!

“Miss Lu…” The leader’s brain was in a fog, and his voice trembled as he uttered these three words, “I’m sorry for not recognizing Mount Tai.”

Mo Si and Yun Sang were somewhat clueless.

Lu Mian, however, twirled the napkin in her hand, with a wicked smile gracing her lips, showing no surprise at their change in attitude.

With an air of casual aloofness laced with a hint of icy chill, she spoke leisurely, “Get out.”

“Yes!”

This time, the leader really did roll out.

As for what awaited him, Lu Mian neither knew nor cared to know.

The so-called highly professional mercenaries had come in crowds, and just as drearily, they had all rolled out.

Mo Si found it amazing.

“Miss Lu, what happened to them in the end?”

Lu Mian tilted her head, blinking clear eyes, “Perhaps, they were conquered by my charm.”

Mo Si: …

That’s not good news at all!

But Yun Sang seemed to read a trace of complexity in her seemingly smiling expression.

This couldn’t possibly be a girl from a shady society, right?

aEUR”aEUR”

Xiao Qimo was busy dealing with a missing persons case and hadn’t found the time to look for Lu Mian all morning.

At the end of the video conference, Daine sincerely invited Xiao Qimo to join them.

“Mr.

Xiao, you’ve helped us so much this time, would you consider joining this special operations team?

With your help, plus the assistance of Number 13, we’ll surely crack this case much faster!”

The mention of Number 13 gave Xiao Qimo a headache.

Even more troubling was that Daine told him the international police system had been hacked by Number 13 that morning, and he immediately recalled that little brat playing on his computer in his room before going to take a physics exam.

It must have been then, offhandedly hacking into the international police’s internal network system.

Truly worthy of being his girl, so arrogant!

While he admired her, he still decisively rejected Daine’s invitation, “I’m already at my limit being an advisor, I’m very busy normally, I won’t get involved in your cases.”

He had a heap of trouble on his hands with his own little brat.

Who did she give her first kiss to?

Who is the fifth person among them?

Did she have something to do with that fifth person?

He really had too many things to attend to.

Seemingly perceiving Xiao Qimo’s distraction, Daine became even more earnest.

“Mr.

Xiao, we’re really short-staffed now…

we can talk about the compensation, if it comes down to it, we can ask IEG for funding, they’re loaded with money!”

“…” Xiao Qimo was speechless and said flatly, “The previously cooperative Wa Zhiqi was not bad, you should check with him.”

Daine knew this big shot was not easy to recruit, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been unable to contact him over the years.

But Mr.

Xiao’s control over cases and analytical abilities were indeed better than others; they needed such talent.

“Mr.

Xiao, please think about it again, don’t you want to meet Number 13 in person?

Don’t you want to collaborate with this big shot just once?”

Xiao Qimo became even less pleased and coldly refused, “No need.”

Then he cut off the video.

Daine: …

If you don’t want to, you don’t want to, what does ‘no need’ mean?

aEUR”aEUR”

When Lu Mian and Yun Sang returned, Xiao Qimo just happened to come down from his room.

Seeing the two of them return together, his deep, dark eyes darkened as he stepped forward and pulled Lu Mian to his side.

His forcefully intertwined fingers seemed to be making a statement.

Yun Sang stared at his wary demeanor, cursed “spineless” under his breath, and pursed his lips.

“Xiao Qimo, don’t go too far!”

“I’ll return the sentiment,” replied the gentleman as he pushed up his glasses, both cold and domineering.

Yun Sang: hei~tui!

Mo Si was like that, and Xiao Qimo was the same, taking him for someone they could just push around!

Tensions within the Jingjing Iron Triangle, more proof added!

Lu Mian was led by Xiao Qimo up the stairs, and she did not forget to turn back and give Yun Sang a sympathetic smile.

Yun Sang held his forehead with one hand, massaging his throbbing temples.

“Heartless little brat, I even took you for burgers today!”

Somehow he felt a twinge of unwillingness, and an idea suddenly struck him; he took out his phone and sent a message to a number.

[Big bro, how about I acknowledge a god sister?]

aEUR”aEUR”

Lu Mian was led by Xiao Qimo back to the room.

The man’s long legs kicked the door shut, and all at once pinned the girl against it.

Lu Mian didn’t have a chance to dodge.

The man’s forceful, domineering presence tightly held her captive at the door.

His hands intertwined with the girl’s, pressed against the room door.

The distance between them was a mere whisper apart.
