Hearing such a detached voice, he shook the jade flute in his hand and said calmly, "I have a task I want to issue!"
"Speak!"
"I want an assassin to help me with something."
"What level of assassin do you need?"
"A junior one will do!"
"Tell me about the specific situation!"
"Okay!"
...
Half an hour later, he left with a smile on his face.
Once he was further away, he looked into the distance, "Xiaobei, our confrontation begins now. I hope you can withstand the first probe, otherwise, it would be too boring!"
He could have hired a more skilled assassin before, but he wasn’t in a hurry. He thought since it was a probe, he’d take it step by step.
Moreover, maybe Xiaobei wasn’t as formidable as imagined, so a junior assassin might be able to completely eliminate him...
...
The next morning, Xiaobei was having breakfast with them when he suddenly felt a strong intent to kill.
Xiaobei realized a guest had arrived.
Xiaobei knew this guest must have been sent by the one who previously had a falling out with him.
Or rather, it was the assassin he hired.
The reason for hiring, of course, was to deal with him...
"Xiaobei, what’s wrong?"
"Yeah!"
Speaking to Xiaobei without getting a response, they all curiously looked at him.
Hearing their surprised inquiries, Xiaobei gently smiled and said calmly, "It’s nothing, just suddenly feeling a little unwell. You go ahead to the shop later to look after things. I’ll rest here for a bit and slack off!"
Upon hearing Xiaobei say he felt unwell, Shangguan Xue stood up immediately, looking tense, "Xiaobei, are you feeling unwell? Do you need to see a doctor? I’m quite familiar with the hospitals around here. If you need, I can take you."
"There’s no need for now!"
Xiaobei didn’t expect Shangguan Xue to react so intensely, so the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.
"Then..."
Lv Xinxin saw Shangguan Xue was about to say something, rubbed her nose in some exasperation, "Alright, Xue’er, come with me to the front to have a look. There are still many things at the shop!"
Being pulled up, Shangguan Xue pointed at Xiaobei and spoke again, "But Xiaobei..."
Lv Xinxin interrupted her again after she spoke, "Xiaobei said he’s fine, let’s go quickly!"
With that, Lv Xinxin directly pulled Shangguan Xue away.
Watching their departing figures, Xiaobei silently sighed.
Shangguan Xue was good in all aspects, but sometimes a bit stubborn. If things weren’t explained clearly, she really wouldn’t understand them well.
...
Pulled away by Lv Xinxin, Shangguan Xue finally shook off her hand, "Is it okay for you to drag me away like that? Didn’t Xiaobei say he wasn’t feeling well?"
Hearing her anxious tone, Lv Xinxin sighed silently, "You really are all bust but no brains! You big idiot, why can’t you understand what Xiaobei meant."
Looking at Lv Xinxin’s face full of helplessness, Shangguan Xue asked in astonishment, "What do you mean by Xiaobei? Didn’t he say he was unwell?"
"He just used that as an excuse to make us leave, probably because another uninvited guest has arrived."
