"What did you say? Sato-kun also... Hmm, hmm, I understand."

Hanging up the phone, the boss of the Red Butterfly held his aching head and sat down on the sofa.

The plan failed so thoroughly, and even Sato-kun, such an impressive master, died in the Capital City. This is really astonishing.

"Nightingale, Ye Xiaofan..." The boss of Red Butterfly muttered these two names. Especially that Ye Xiaofan, who particularly irked him.

Repeatedly, his appearance caused the Red Butterfly to suffer tremendous losses again and again, and this time even pulled in Sato-kun. How could he account for this to the headquarters?

"Hey, send down the order, put Ye Xiaofan's information on the main page and publish an assassination order. The reward is three million."

Having experienced too much, the boss of the Red Butterfly did not throw a tantrum due to the news of the mission's failure, but Sato died at the hands of the nightingale, and again, this Ye Xiaofan meddled. The nightingale deserves to die, but now is not the time to kill her, while Ye Xiaofan absolutely cannot be left alive.

Meanwhile, in the Capital City's military affiliated hospital.

Jie's ribs in front have been reconnected, and the injury has improved somewhat, yet it seems he will need to lie down for a while before he can start moving.

Shen Zuimo silently stood outside the hospital room, with the face of that young man lingering in her mind, feeling the ripples of emotions stirred up by what had happened before.

Just now, her brother had already spoken to her, saying that person was Ye Xiaofan.

Shen Zuimo remembered this name, because after her surgery for Yanhuang Soul, her brother had asked about this Ye Xiaofan.

But no matter how Shen Zuimo tried recalling, she could not remember having any contact with this person. The name Ye Xiaofan was completely blank in her mind.

However, Shen Junjie did not know the specifics of the emotions when his sister was with Ye Xiaofan. He only knew that before Zuimo regained her memory, she still remembered Ye Xiaofan. She cared for this boy more than her own life.

"During the time you lost your memory, you lived with him. I've mentioned some things to you before. You liked him very, very much, even fell in love with him."

This was what her brother told her in the car on the way to the hospital. It was hard to understand; according to the previous statements, he should just be a regular high school student. She actually liked someone like that? Wasn't she supposed to lack feelings? Things unrelated to her should not concern her.

It must be because she lost her memory, forgot she was an assassin, which led to such naive thoughts. But without experiencing it, she wondered what falling in love with a boy felt like. With him...

While pondering, Shen Zuimo involuntarily thought again of the fight scene; how he repeatedly risked his life for her. Did he really like her? Was he alright now? She should not burden an ordinary person, being the cold and ruthless person she was.

In the distant sky, the stars shone brightly, and a meteor unknowingly streaked across, leaving a long trail of light.

The light faded quickly, and the night sky returned to its calm state, as if the meteor never flew across.

"Zuimo, don't go. Zuimo..."

"Ah, here we go again, starting to call out that woman's name."

At this time, in a large mansion somewhere in the Capital City.

Ren Ling pouted and walked out of the room, looking visibly upset. After all, the boy lying inside was identified by her as her fiancé, yet he kept calling out another woman's name, which was really annoying.

"This kid's meridians are really tough. No wonder he could withstand such powerful inner strength. However, Chongtian only left inner strength of over thirty years in him, and he probably exerted everything in his power."

In the living room, Mrs. Ren pondered and then slowly expressed her opinion.

"Mrs. Ren, what was your purpose in bringing this young man back?" Cyan Dragon was still very confused about this.

"To quickly marry him to Ling'Er. You know, the Ren Family equity adjustment happens every ten years and is about to start. This time, without Chongtian, those guys will likely unite and target our Ren family's few lonely individuals. Therefore, I need Ling'Er's power to significantly improve in a short time." Mrs. Ren said slowly.

"But how? Rapid power enhancement through such forced growth is harmful to Ling'Er." Cyan Dragon worriedly expressed. He had researched such methods before, but no matter how he tried, he couldn't find a way.

"Why do you think Chongtian married me, when there were so many other outstanding women around him? It's because I had ways to improve his power. My devotion led me to give him over ninety percent of my inner strength."

"This..."

"This is a unique cultivation technique from our Miaojiang tribe, eventually passing only to me. Back then, I was infatuated with Ren Zhongtian, willing to sacrifice everything for him. Now, for the Ren Family, I can only sacrifice Ling'Er's happiness again. Who knows if she will blame me in the future."

"She won't. I like him, and I am willing to sacrifice for the Ren Family. But after this matter is over, Grandma must promise me to let me live freely." Ren Ling sat beside, speaking calmly.

"..." Mrs. Ren glanced at her granddaughter, remained silent for a while, and then let out a heavy sigh, "Let's discuss once he's awake."

Three days later...

Xiaofan gradually awoke, saw the unfamiliar environment, and slowly got up, walking out of the room.

"Yo, kid, you're finally awake." Cyan Dragon, downstairs having breakfast, greeted as he saw Xiaofan coming down.

"Senior, where is this place? What about Shen Zuimo?" Xiaofan's eyes appeared very calm; the first thing he must do now is find Shen Zuimo, he must find her.

"You, kid, your body hasn't recovered yet, why are you in such a hurry?" Cyan Dragon said slowly.

"If it was senior who saved me, then Xiaofan thanks you again and will repay the favor one day. But I must leave now." Xiaofan said, disregarding that he was only wearing pajamas and slippers, quickly heading towards the door.

"If you consider yourself able to leave this mansion, you can try." Suddenly, an imposing voice came from the side. Mrs. Ren slowly walked out of the mansion, supported by Ren Ling.
