"Miss Yi, that would be too meaningless," the man said. "Taking your life right now would truly be too easy. That way, there wouldn't be any challenge and that isn't my style. Hence, I thought I'd better inform Miss Yi first. Only after Miss Yi is on her guard and I finish my mission would there be a sense of achievement. What do you think, Miss Yi?"
"You might be too arrogant," Ye Wanwan mocked.
"In terms of arrogance, I pale in comparison to Miss Yi," the man retorted.
Before Ye Wanwan could say anything else, the man continued, "Please remember, Miss Yi, that you have three days at most. I will attack during any of these days. I hope Miss Yi will add some difficulty for me or else it'd be utterly meaningless to me."
Then the man acted like a whiff of wind and swiftly opened the window and jumped out, disappearing without a trace.
At the same time, Ye Wanwan's frowned deeply. Just what was this man's background...
That night, Ye Wanwan barely slept a wink.
When the sun rose on the horizon the next morning, Ye Wanwan left her residence and headed for the Yi residence to seek out Yi Lingjun.
After listening to Ye Wanwan's reiteration of last night's incident, Yi Lingjun tilted his head pensively.
"Increase his difficulty... how interesting," Yi Lingjun remarked.
"Don't interesting' me. Your daughter was nearly assassinated yet you're amazed here." Ye Wanwan exasperatedly rolled her eyes at Yi Lingjun.
"What do you mean nearly assassinated? Aren't you standing here perfectly fine? I think this nearly' is thousands of miles from the truth, no?" Yi Lingjun said.
