Chapter 77 - An Yi
Xing Jiuan did not go over to look for Ji Shu.
She put on her cap just as Ji Shu walked over. Xing Jiuan brushed past her.
Just as they pa.s.sed each other by, Ji Shu suddenly stopped and looked back.
"What"s wrong?" the person beside Ji Shu asked.
Ji Shu"s facial features were bright and beautiful. But right now, they looked a little confused.
"That person gives me a very familiar feeling."
"You always find them familiar when you see someone good-looking," the person beside her grumbled. "Do you want to go over and ask?"
"There"s no need. Let"s go."
Xing Jiuan had already walked out. Her black clothes made her blend perfectly into the night.
Xing Jiuan had not expected to suddenly receive a call. She had already called Mu Qing, so it couldn"t be him.
When she saw the caller ID, it was very unfamiliar. It was not someone she knew.
"h.e.l.lo?" She walked to a darker spot, her back to the street lights. She was slender and tall, and some of the light blond hair peeking out from under her hat was beautiful and charming under the light.
"Jiuan, listen to me. Don"t do today"s mission. This is a trap." Mu Qing sounded anxious.
"Senior Brother?" Xing Jiuan said in astonishment.
Mu Qing had found an unfamiliar cell phone number at the last minute because he was worried that someone would discover his message to Xing Jiuan.
"Jiuan, don"t go on that mission. Find a safe place to hide. I"ll be there soon."
Xing Jiuan turned her head to the side and looked. Her pupils were pitch black.
"Don"t worry, Senior Brother."
She hung up and saw someone not far away. Her lips twitched.
"An Yi, we meet again." The man"s voice was as strange as him. His face was pale, like that of a ghost moving through the human realm.
Xing Jiuan already had many names and code names. She was used to having one name tied to one ident.i.ty. In the end, no one could find her.
And the name An Yi had not been heard for a long time.
During her first time on a mission with her senior brother, he gave her a mask and told her that she had a code name.
Jiuan, 21st1. Together, they were An Yi.
It was a simple name.
The two most important ident.i.ties in her life had formed this name.
Another important ident.i.ty was Xing Se.
It was the turning point of her life.
There were still many people around. Xing Jiuan did not expect that this criminal would actually appear before her, face-to-face this time. Furthermore, it was on the streets with so many people.
He had always liked to hide and do things secretly.
If it was really a trap like Senior Brother had said, then this person was the bait to lure her out.
As the criminal left, Xing Jiuan chased after him.
…
"Ji Shu, what"s wrong?" her companion asked when he saw that Ji Shu"s expression was not that great.
"I feel a little fl.u.s.tered."
"Do you want to see a doctor?"
Ji Shu did not speak. She walked to the window and looked at the scenery below.
"I feel that that person… left a deep impression on me."
Xing Jiuan followed that criminal"s footsteps and walked through the streets. Her speed was very fast, and her hair was blown back by the wind, revealing her exquisite facial features.
Her eyes were cold and her expression was extremely icy.
She had finally been lured into a trap.
"I knew that you"d come after me, An Yi. But you have no idea how many ideas we"ve come up with to trap you."
Xing Jiuan only smirked.
"Of course, I"d naturally be prepared before I chased you."
"Prepared to die, you mean?"
The criminal opposite her laughed mockingly. His golden-brown hair was slightly long, and his blue eyes exuded killing intent.
In Chinese, "21st" is read as "Er Yi"
