Chapter 232: Let’s Go and Wait
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In a manor villa in the suburbs.
This manor was given to Qin Xi by Meng Chang’an as a reward after she helped Elder Meng last time. This was the first time she came.
“Lady Boss, whose house is this?” Looking at the solemn and luxurious manor, Blood Stealer asked in confusion.
Qin Xi smiled and took out her key. She opened the black door and said, “This used to be a haunted house. Later on, I dispersed the things inside, so the owner of the villa gave this place to me.”
Blood Stealer was shocked. “Lady Boss, you know how to catch ghosts?”
Even Saber and Lone Wolf were shocked. Although they knew that Qin Xi had no reason to lie to them, they found it unbelievable.
Saber suddenly asked curiously, “Are there really ghosts in this world? What do they look like?”
Qin Xi said ambiguously, “There are some things that can’t be explained by science. If you believe it, it exists. If you don’t, then it doesn’t.”
After entering the manor, Qin Xi pointed at the independent two-story western-style building on the other side. “In the future, that building will be where you live. See what you need or how you want to renovate it. Use your free time to fix it yourself.”
Blood Stealer smiled happily and rubbed his hands eagerly. “That’s great. In the past, I always wanted to have a place of my own that I could sleep in and work out in, but there were too many missions and I didn’t have a stable place to stay. Now, all my dreams have come true.”
Saber was also quite excited. It had to be noted that people like them lived a life of constant danger. Every time they carried out a different mission, they would fly all over the world and stay for months, half a year, or even a year. They were unfamiliar with the word ‘home’.
Moreover, for the sake of the organization, they had sacrificed everything, their youth as well as their lives.
It could be said that as long as they became a member of the a.s.sault team, they would have to give up their lives and family to become invisible warriors who protected the country and the people.
Even so, they never held a grudge. Many warriors tried their best to join but weren’t accepted.
Therefore, this team was a great honor and responsibility to them.
It was not until they were forced to leave the organization and met Qin Xi that they truly felt the importance of home.
Not to mention them, even Lone Wolf, who had always been taciturn and expressionless, had a trace of joy in his eyes.
Seeing their excitement, Qin Xi was also very touched.
After all, in her previous life, she had been hunted down for the rest of her life. Every time she was in a desperate situation, she would fantasize about the warmth and protection her family gave her. Now that she had met Lone Wolf and the others, although their previous experiences were different, their goals were the same.
Putting aside these sad memories, Qin Xi said seriously, “Pack up. We’ll go and meet Master Qi later.”
Lone Wolf and the other two did not show serious expressions. They had not fought for a long time and were eager for a battle. Perhaps only they knew that if they did not find something to do, their bodies might very well rust.
Not long after, she obtained all the information about Master Qi from the Xia family. Although it wasn’t in detail, it was enough for Qin Xi.
From the information, Master Qi was indeed very arrogant. He relied on his background to do whatever he wanted, but no one dared to challenge him.
However, Qin Xi could tell something was wrong. Master Qi would disappear for a day every 15 days. No one knew where he went, and he had been doing so for three years.
Qin Xi pondered for a moment. Her strong intuition told her that something was wrong. She looked at the time and saw that it was the 15th day today. At the thought of this, she stood up and said to Lone Wolf, “Let’s go and wait.”
