Chapter 94 Preparations before departure
Chapter 95 Preparations before departure
Early the next morning.

"Good morning, Bing~" As soon as I opened my eyes, Jingliu's moving curves fell into my eyes without any error.

"Good morning, Sister Jingliu." I rubbed my nose and smiled. "You're in good shape again."

"Hateful, you are so careless so early in the morning." Jing Liu said coquettishly. It seems that she slept well last night. "Ah? Bing, you didn't sleep well? Why are your eyes red?"

"Of course. I didn't sleep last night." I rubbed my face vigorously and replied. I spent the whole night counting the money in my necklace yesterday. My eyes were tired from counting. Fortunately, I closed my eyes and rested, otherwise it would be a question whether I could get up this morning.

"Huh? Why aren't you sleeping?" Jingliu asked puzzledly.

"Put on your clothes first and I'll tell you." I was speechless. I turned off the lights last night and could only vaguely see Jingliu's shadow. Now in the morning the sun shines in. The perfect lines are revealed, which makes my nose itch.

Seeing Jingliu turn around and put on her clothes with a slightly red face, I couldn't help but feel helpless. Jingliu is already 26 years old. How come she is still so thick-skinned?

"Okay, tell me why you didn't sleep last night?" After putting on his clothes, Jingliu turned around and asked me.

"I was thinking about the plan for the next two days last night, so I couldn't sleep." I squinted my eyes and said. Of course I couldn't tell her that I was counting money all night, because she wouldn't believe it even if I told her.

"So...what was the result?"

"Hmm... I can't think of it."

“…” After hearing what I said, Jingliu couldn’t help but squint his half-moon eyes. Every time he said he was thinking deeply, he ended up in a daze.

"Well, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go have breakfast." I interrupted Jingliu's contemptuous look at me. I put on my clothes and pulled Jingliu out of the room.

After washing up, Jingliu and I walked out of the room. As soon as we walked out, we saw Ningshuang, who had replaced Ningyue in the first half of the night, leaning against the wall to rest. Although it was only the second half of the night, this kind of concentrated guarding work was still very tiring. Once the human body has not fallen asleep after the deep sleep period, it will have a great impact on the body. So it is understandable that Ningshuang is in a bad mental state now.

"Good morning, Mr. Mingya, Ms. Baihe." After hearing the noise at my door, Ningshuang reacted immediately. She opened her eyes and greeted us.

"Good morning, Shuang'er, thank you for your hard work in keeping watch." I said with a smile.

"No, this is what I should do." Ningshuang was slightly stunned when she heard me address her, but after seeing the example of the child addressing her sister yesterday, she quickly got relieved. "Mr. Mingya, Sister Ningxue is already waiting for you two in the restaurant on the second floor. I'll take you there right away." Ningshuang bowed slightly and then led us to the restaurant on the second floor.

Soon, we arrived at the restaurant on the second floor. As a breakfast restaurant, it is naturally far inferior to the revolving restaurant on the top floor, but it still looks neat and clean, much better than the so-called cafeteria.

At the edge of the restaurant, Ningxue was waiting there.

"Good morning, Mr. Mingya, Ms. Baihe." Ningxue bowed slightly when she saw us coming. "I wonder if you two are used to the room you stayed in last night?"

"Haha, there's nothing to get used to, it's just finding a place to sleep." I laughed softly. "How about you, Xue, did you sleep well last night?" I said with a sly smile on my face. Thinking back to what happened last night, I still find it a little funny.

Ningxue didn't answer me, but seeing her flushed cheeks, I knew that she also remembered what happened last night.

"Haha, okay, I won't tease you anymore." I chuckled. "Hurry up and finish your breakfast, we'll be leaving soon. By the way, where is Skinny Wolf?"

"The boss has gone to prepare for the trip early in the morning and will be back in about an hour." The blush on Ningxue's face gradually faded away, and she said solemnly.

"Is that so? Let's eat first." I said, pulling Jingliu to sit at the dining table, and then looked up at Ningxue and Ningshuang who were still standing next to us. The two girls quickly understood and sat down opposite us.

Breakfast was naturally not as noisy as yesterday's dinner. After a simple meal, I burped and drank the ice water in the cup quietly. "Hu... Shuang'er, go back and rest after breakfast. You will need to get up at twelve o'clock this afternoon to send Sister Jingliu away."

"Yes, Sister Ningxue has already told Sister Ningyue about it last night. Please rest assured." Ningshuang said respectfully.

"Well, it shouldn't be that busy over there. Apart from the hard work of keeping watch, you can just live your life normally. We are hiding pretty well. As long as we don't expose it from the inside, basically no one will know."

"Yes." Ning Shuang answered. Then a wicked smile appeared on her handsome face. "At the same time, we also hope that Mr. Mingya can take good care of my sister for us."

"What are you talking about, you silly girl?" Ningxue's cheeks flushed. In fact, not only Ningxue, but also I turned into a dotted eyed staring at her, because even I didn't expect that this seemingly cold girl would actually say such a thing.

"Haha, don't worry about that. As long as the plan goes smoothly, I guarantee that she will not be in danger. I will take good care of her." In response to Ningshuang's words, I also teased Ningxue casually. However, this seemed to have the opposite effect, because Jingliu, who was sitting next to me, became interested in what we were talking about.

"Eh? Bing. Did you do anything to Xue last night?"

"No, I just chatted with her about today's mission." I picked up the cup and drank the ice water to suppress the words.

"Oh? Really?" Jingliu leaned towards me slyly. "Be careful or I'll tell her about it later."

"Pfft..." I sprayed out all the water before I could finish it. "Please, Sister Jingliu." I wiped the water stains from the corners of my mouth and looked at Jingliu speechlessly. "We really didn't do anything." I continued to argue. Jingliu and I certainly knew who the so-called "she" was, but Ningxue and Ningshuang, who were sitting opposite, were completely confused.

"The one Miss Baihe mentioned... could it be Mr. Liufeng?" Ningxue looked at the siblings sitting opposite her in confusion, muttering to herself. "Could it be... am I overthinking?" Ningxue's eyebrows slightly frowned, and she shook her head gently, throwing her unrealistic thoughts out of her mind. That's right, her thoughts were unrealistic in the first place, how could someone...

"Axue, what's wrong?" Seeing Ningxue seemed a little distracted, I asked softly.

"Ah, no, nothing." Ningxue replied with a smile. Then she put the previous thoughts behind her. ————The smell of orchids, the smell of lavender, the smell of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

"Haha, it's so lively so early in the morning." Just as we were talking, a hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the restaurant door.

"boss."

"boss."

Ningxue and Ningshuang stood up immediately and greeted the visitor respectfully.

"Ah, you're welcome. Sit down." Shoulang casually invited the two to sit down, and Ningxue was also very sensible and took a chair from another table to make a seat for Shoulang.

"How's it going, Skinny Wolf? How are your preparations going?" I asked quietly, holding the ice water in my hand.

"Well, everything is ready. We can set off after Mr. Mingya finishes breakfast." Skinny Wolf said with a smile.

"Haha, let's prepare a few things before we leave."

"No problem. I wonder if Mr. Mingya needs anything else?"

"A brooch monitor with eavesdropping function. I'm also preparing a necklace monitor. It would be best if the viewing device is the kind that you can carry with you. If you can't find it in a short time, then any one will do." I thought about it and said.

"Oh? What is Mr. Mingya going to do?" Shoulang was puzzled. "Are you trying to ensure someone's safety?"

"Yeah, that's about right." I said softly. "The brooch is for you, the necklace is for Axue. The monitoring device is for me."

"Give it to me?" Skinny Wolf raised his brows slightly.

"Yes, I'll give it to you." I said with my eyes fixed. "The principle of this auction plan is either peaceful negotiation or rooting out the enemies. As for how many people to negotiate and how many roots to root out, it depends on whether you, Skinny Wolf, have the skills and courage." After saying that, I raised a wicked smile at the corner of my mouth.

"What you mean is..." Before Skinny Wolf could finish his sentence, I interrupted him with my hand. I just glanced slightly to my side and Skinny Wolf immediately understood what I meant.

"Haha, in that case, let's talk about it on the way." Skinny Wolf said with a slight greeting. "I wonder if Mr. Mingya needs anything else?"

"Well, I need more equipment, daggers, guns, small bombs, all of which I need." I raised my head and drank the ice water in the glass. "Let's go to your armory and check it out. We will set off soon."

"Okay, please continue eating. I'll wait for you in the armory." After saying that, Shoulang stood up and left the restaurant first, and Ningshuang also followed Shoulang's footsteps and left. Of course, as a subordinate, she sent her boss out, and then naturally went back to catch up on her sleep.

"Mr. Mingya, I'll be waiting for you at the restaurant entrance." Ningxue bowed to us after Shoulang walked out of the restaurant. From what I just said to Shoulang, she knew we were about to leave. She needed to go back and prepare some equipment for herself. At the same time, she also knew that Jingliu and I needed some time before we set off again.

"Bing..." After Ningxue left, Jingliu, who had been sitting next to me, finally spoke. "You will come back safely, right?" Jingliu's eyes were full of worry.

"Idiot." I answered with my eyes narrowed. "I've been a killer for more than ten years. Haven't I come this far?" I smiled as I pinched Jingliu's pretty face. "This time I'm just going to play a game with some rich people. I'll be back soon."

"Puchi." Jingliu laughed at my words. "Hate it, it's such a time and you're still so frivolous."

"Haha, don't worry, I will definitely come back safely." I said, with a sly look on my face, and whispered into Jingliu's ear. "I won't die so easily before I fulfill the promise I made to you last night."

"Bing! Hate it!" Jingliu's cheeks turned red after hearing what I said.

"Hahaha, stop messing around." I chuckled after dodging Jingliu's punch. "I'll go back and rest for a while, and leave here at noon to go back to Yotsumachime in Beika City. I'll be back in about two or three days."

"Well, I'll prepare the meal and wait for you at home." Jingliu's cheeks flushed slightly, and then turned into a hint of cunning. "Then, as a routine before departure..."

"It's... a routine." I seemed to realize something. But before I could make a move, Jingliu held me in his arms.

"Hehe, you want to escape? That's impossible!"

“Woo woo woo…” Defeated. Retreating…

While Jingliu and I were playing, a beautiful figure was standing at the entrance of the restaurant, looking at the two people playing in the restaurant. A trace of doubt flashed across Ningxue's brows. Without disturbing us, Ningxue turned and left the restaurant entrance and walked towards the armory.

In the armory in the basement of the shopping mall, Skinny Wolf was ordering his men to prepare for their journey.

"Boss." Ningxue walked in front of Shoulang.

"Ah Xue? Aren't you waiting for Mr. Mingya in the restaurant? Why are you here first?"

"Yes, Boss." Ningxue said slightly seriously. "It's just...it's just that I have something I want to tell you first."

"Ok?"
