Chapter 1216: The Target Appeared
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Brother, I am back in Song Jiang.” After Alice waited for Yang Ming and the others to leave, she quickly dialed a number with her own satellite phone. She did not use the phone in the room, although that phone could call outside at any time.
However, Alice was a more cautious person. She was afraid that the phone in the room would be monitored, so she did not use it.
“Little Ai, have you arrived?” The person on the other side asked with concern, “How was it? Did you show any flaws along the way?”
“I probably didn’t, but that Wang Xiaoyan was very alert. She noticed that I know Kung Fu. I almost revealed myself. Fortunately, I made a timely lie,” said Alice.
“That Wang Xiaoyan… En, she is indeed a headache. The most troublesome thing for me is that she and Yang Ming actually got together and messed up my plans again and again…” The person on the other side seemed to be a bit annoyed. “This plan has been dragging for too long. If Yang Ming can’t be settled, and if it makes that person alert, we will be finished.”
“Okay, I understand. I will find a chance to make a move as soon as possible…” When Alice said this, she didn’t know why she had a heartache; she was a little uncomfortable. “However, Yang Ming’s skill is not worse than me. This opportunity is not so easy to find…”
“For men, it’s easiest for them to relax when they are infatuated… Alice, you understand what I mean,” said the person on the other side. Although letting Alice sacrifice herself made the man on the other side somewhat unbearable, sometimes, he had to make some sacrifices to achieve a great cause.
“I know,” Alice said calmly. From the beginning, she had already prepared to sacrifice herself after she received this mission.
“Okay, if there’s nothing else, don’t contact me anymore, lest you are noticed by Yang Ming. If he’s wary and suspicious of you, it will be hard to move forward.” The person on the other side commanded, “We are all in Song Jiang. It’s too dangerous to make contact too often.”
“Brother, don’t worry. I know what to do.” After Alice finished, she hung up the phone. However, there was a feeling that she couldn’t describe; was it uncomfortable, or something else?
From the perspective of a third party, Yang Ming was an innocent person. However, due to a twist of fate, it affected the interests of her brother. Sometimes, it was impossible to tell who was good and who was evil, but standing at a different angle could cause changes in mindset.
Alice sighed slightly. She didn’t have time to think about these things. She still had a lot to do.
This time, Alice did not use the satellite phone again, but she picked up the phone in the room because the following matters no longer needed to be hidden from Yang Ming.
“Hello, is it Kate? This is Alice…” Alice was talking to a female heir to a business family in Malaysia. She was a little older than Alice and had many businesses in China.
“Alice? Ah, it’s you. Sister Alice, how did you have the time to call me?” Although Kate was the heir to a big family in Malaysia, and she was a billionaire, compared to Alice, she was a bit lacking. When she ventured into the European market, she had to rely on Alice to survive. So, she was particularly enthusiastic about Alice’s call.
“Kate, I am in China. You should have many connections here, right?” Alice asked, “I want to study at the Song Jiang Industry University now. Do you have any relationship that will allow me to enter this school…”
“It’s Song Jiang, right?” Kate thought about it and said, “No problem. I am very familiar with Director Song of the Education Department. I helped with several exchanges with schools in Malaysia.”
“Then, thanks for the trouble in this matter, Kate.” Alice didn’t expect to solve the problem by just making a phone call. Sometimes, it was easy to resolve the matter by contacting the right person.
Although Alice could easily enter Song Jiang Industry University with the help of her brother’s contacts, if Yang Ming really investigated how she entered the school, it was easy to expose that layer of relationship behind Alice. Therefore, Alice only used the ties she had cultivated over the years, not the relationship of her brother.
This thing was not a big deal for Kate. It was nothing more than selling a favor to Alice. When Director Song heard that Alice was coming here to study from Europe, and she was also a friend of Kate, he easily made a promise.
As a result, Alice entered the Song Jiang Industry University as an exchange student.
Victoria’s status as a student was not a difficult thing. Yang Ming had it arranged with Hou Zhenhan. Yang Ming had already asked Old Buffon to create a legitimate identity for Victoria in Europe, so Victoria came to China as a foreign student this time. In this way, Song Jiang Industry University had two more international students.
But the strange thing was that these two international students were Chinese!
With Hou Zhenhan’s social relationship, it was not difficult to arrange for a student to get into the university. These were not the things that Yang Ming worried about. It was not even necessary for Hou Zhenhan to worry about it. His men could handle it properly.
After Yang Ming returned to Song Jiang, the first thing he did was to call Chen Mengyan. On this trip, Yang Ming did not appear to be lonely because he was accompanied by Huang Lele and Wang Xiaoyan. After returning, his heart was naturally a bit ashamed to Chen Mengyan.
Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun had already slept. During this period, Yang Ming was not at home. Unexpectedly, the three girls could get along more relaxed. Without the previous restraint, their relationship became more harmonious. This was unexpected to Yang Ming.
When Yang Ming was there, Chen Mengyan was always cautious; Lin Zhiyun did not fight for anything; Zhou Jiajia was shy and restrained. This made the four of them form a very strange relationship, and they were somewhat awkward whenever they saw each other.
When Yang Ming went abroad, there was no such restriction anymore. There were many topics between women, excluding the man who made them awkward. Therefore, the relationship between Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun improved in leaps and bounds in a few days.
Although occasionally, someone would mention Yang Ming, causing a slight awkwardness between them, however, after a long period of awkwardness, it would naturally become commonplace. After all, Yang Ming was not there. Later, Yang Ming even became the topic of amusement among these girls.
Chen Mengyan rubbed her sleepy eyes. She didn’t know who would call at such a time at night. Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia, who were on the side, were obviously woken up by the ringtone. Especially Zhou Jiajia, who seemed to have slept soundly, was woken up by the ringing. She squinted, looking for the source of the sound with her face full of ‘?’.
Chen Mengyan grabbed the phone and did not see the caller ID. She said in a daze, “Hello? Who is it?”
“Dear, have you slept?” Yang Ming heard Chen Mengyan’s dazed voice and knew that Chen Mengyan was definitely asleep. Yang Ming was very sorry for interrupting her rest, but it was already past eleven o’clock in the middle of the night when Yang Ming returned to Song Jiang. He had no control of this. He was not like Iron Man who could fly; he could only come back by car.
“Who is your dear?” Chen Mengyan inexplicably asked a question. She subconsciously thought that someone called the wrong number, so she directly hung up, threw the phone aside, and went back to bed.
“Mengyan, who called?” Zhou Jiajia finally woke up.
“I don’t know. When I picked it up, he called me Dear…” Chen Mengyan waved her hand. She was still in a state of being half asleep.
“Dear? Could it be a call from Yang Ming?” Zhou Jiajia was stunned, then she made a joke.
Chen Mengyan immediately sat up on the bed, and she was a lot more awake in a moment. “I think it really is Yang Ming?” After that, Chen Mengyan quickly took the phone and looked at the call record. It really turned out to be Yang Ming’s name.
Chen Mengyan said bitterly, “It was really Yang Ming. I was dazed from being asleep, so I hung up…”
Zhou Jiajia listened to Chen Mengyan’s words and remembered Chen Mengyan’s phrase, “Who is your dear?” She suddenly laughed and said, “Mengyan… You were too fierce just now…”
“You still laugh? Wasn’t I sleepy just now?” Chen Mengyan said with some helplessness.
“Then hurry up and call him…” Lin Zhiyun also covered her mouth. She couldn’t help but laugh as she said it.
“I… have already hung up… or Zhiyun, you can help me to call him…” Chen Mengyan thought that her own actions were a little embarrassing. If Yang Ming asked, how embarrassing would it be? So Chen Mengyan threw the phone to Lin Zhiyun.
“Okay, I will call.” Lin Zhiyun laughed as she took the phone and pressed the redial button. The phone was quickly connected.
Yang Ming was looking at the phone that was hung up inexplicably, then the phone rang. Seeing the number of Chen Mengyan, Yang Ming shook his head helplessly. Without the need to ask, Chen Mengyan must be dazed from her sleep just now.
“Hello, Mengyan?” Yang Ming did not directly call “Dear” to avoid being hung up by Chen Mengyan again.
“It’s me…” Lin Zhiyun said quickly, “Just now, Sister Mengyan was sleeping… so…”
“Hehe, it’s Zhiyun.” Yang Ming heard Lin Zhiyun’s voice. “I know. You all must be sleeping at this time. I didn’t bother you, did I?”
“En, no.” Lin Zhiyun shook her head. “We have just slept not long ago.”
“I just wanted to tell you all that I am back. I have already arrived in Song Jiang.” Yang Ming said, “You all should rest first. I will look for you all tomorrow morning.”
“En, okay.” Lin Zhiyun replied obediently.
“How is it?” After Lin Zhiyun hung up the phone, Chen Mengyan asked quickly.
“Yang Ming said that he has returned to Song Jiang. He let us rest first, and he will come to see us tomorrow morning,” Lin Zhiyun said truthfully.
“Then…” Chen Mengyan was slightly disappointed. Probably if she didn’t appear sleepy, Yang Ming would be back tonight. During the time when Yang Ming was away, although Chen Mengyan’s face did not show unhappiness, she still missed Yang Ming very much.
However, because Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia were around, Chen Mengyan couldn’t show too much enthusiasm, or else, they would make fun of her. Therefore, Chen Mengyan could only give up the idea of continuing to call Yang Ming and nodded. “Okay, let’s go to sleep… En, I’m really sleepy. Yang Ming is really an annoying guy, calling us in the middle of the night…”
“En, yeah, let’s go to sleep.” Zhou Jiajia pursed her lips and resisted her smile because anyone could see how happy Chen Mengyan was. She was not blaming Yang Ming at all.
Yang Ming threw the phone on the driver’s seat. After reaching Song Jiang, Yang Ming changed into his BMW X5, then he let Fatty Li rush back as soon as possible.
“Have you settled your harem?” Wang Xiaoyan looked at Yang Ming, and there was an indescribable smile on her face.
“No, there are still a few more.” Yang Ming smiled.
Wang Xiaoyan shrugged and glared at Yang Ming. If she were to eat this vinegar[1], she couldn’t possibly handle it. Fortunately for Wang Xiaoyan, Yang Ming did not keep these things from her. This gave Wang Xiaoyan a small sense of superiority.
“Sister Xiao Qing, have you slept yet?” Yang Ming called Xiao Qing.
“Yang Ming? Are you back?” Xiao Qing’s voice was a little joyful.
“En, I just came back. Sister Xiao Qing, how are you?” asked Yang Ming.
“I’m still doing the research project.” Xiao Qing smiled bitterly, “Now, a new wireless protocol is being developed in the school, and I’m the head of this project…”
“It’s already so late. You are still in school?” Yang Ming was a little surprised.
“Yeah, but I’m not still here; I have always been here. I have already started living at school!” Xiao Qing said helplessly.
“Tomorrow, I will go to school to find you.” Yang Ming laughed and said, “Right, how is Sun Jie?”
“Little Jie, I haven’t seen her for a few days. I’ve been so busy, so I haven’t called her. You can call her. She may have returned to Donghai,” said Xiao Qing.
“So it’s like this. Okay, then I will give her a call,” said Yang Ming.
“En, well, I won’t talk to you first. I am still experimenting here. Many people are here.” Xiao Qing said, “Tomorrow afternoon; I will take a break tomorrow afternoon.”
“Then let it be tomorrow afternoon.” Yang Ming knew that Xiao Qing might be really busy, so he didn’t continue to bother her.
Yang Ming called Sun Jie’s phone a few times, but it did not go through. Looking at the time, it was already past twelve o’clock in the middle of the night. Maybe Sun Jie had already slept. So, Yang Ming did not continue to call her. He intended to wait until tomorrow morning to call again and inform her.
As for Zhao Ying, Yang Ming hesitated for a moment. He picked up the phone and put it down again. The relationship between Zhao Ying and Yang Ming was really strange. Yang Ming wanted to call her to inform her, but remembering that he didn’t tell her when he left, he gave up the idea.
I don’t know how Zhao Ying is doing these days. Has her anger toned down? I will probe on the Internet first. It is not necessarily a good thing to call her impulsively.
“Have you finish calling?” Wang Xiaoyan saw that Yang Ming put down the phone, so she asked.
“En, but isn’t there still you?” Yang Ming looked at Wang Xiaoyan. “Now it’s our private time. Let’s go home.”
“Who cares?” What Wang Xiaoyan said was actually the truth. During this time, she stuck to Yang Ming every day which made Wang Xiaoyan have a kind of illusion that Yang Ming belonged to her alone. However, Yang Ming’s words reminded her that they had returned to Song Jiang. That kind of day had ceased to exist.
Wang Xiaoyan sighed. The nights that I didn’t cherish, but now are extraordinarily precious. Tomorrow, Yang Ming will definitely not be with me again, right?
The car drove in the direction of the Huashang District, and along the way, Wang Xiaoyan was silent. She never thought that she would fall in love with a man one day!
In the past, she was trying to escape her family’s arrangement, so she came out to create her own assassin group to fight against her family elders. Rather than saying that she did not want to marry a man without feelings, it was more to fight against her family.
Because Wang Xiaoyan had never dated before, marriage was also a dispensable thing for her. Therefore, she was not very concerned about this. It was not until Yang Ming appeared, and until she fell in love with Yang Ming, that Wang Xiaoyan began to re-examine her future.
The struggle between her and the family had become a struggle for her own happiness! Wang Xiaoyan didn’t want to be separated from Yang Ming, so she wanted to control her own destiny. She wanted to create the number one assassin group in the world to prove to her family that she could still create a miracle even if she broke away from her arranged marriage.
“Bang.”
Just as Wang Xiaoyan bowed her head in contemplation, a muffled sound crossed the eardrums of Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan. The body of the BMW slightly vibrated and lost its balance.
At the same time, Yang Ming subconsciously controlled the direction and stepped on the brakes. Fortunately, they were in the neighborhood, so the driving speed was not fast. Yang Ming could take measures quickly!
The car’s tire had a puncture! However, Yang Ming did not think it was a natural puncture because Yang Ming heard the muffled sound very clearly! It was a gunshot and a gun that was installed with a silencer!
Someone fired at his wheel!
“Someone fired!” Almost in a moment, Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan said this at the same time, and the two also reached out to press the other’s head, pressing the other head below the seat!
This BMW X5 was bulletproof. Although it was bulletproof glass, it still depended on the kind of bullets used. If it were a close-range high-intensity gunshot, the bulletproof glass was useless. At this time, they could only pin their hopes on the bulletproof steel plate inside the door.
Wang Kejin began to pay attention to this BMW X5 as soon as it entered the neighborhood entrance. According to the information, this car was Yang Ming’s car. From the surveillance camera installed by Wang Kejin at the gate of the neighborhood, Wang Kejin couldn’t see the appearance of the driver clearly.
Therefore, Wang Kejin quickly took out the infrared night vision binoculars and looked carefully in the direction of the BMW. When he confirmed that a man and a woman were in the car, and that man was exactly the person he was looking for, Yang Ming, Wang Kejin was overjoyed!
Yang Ming, who disappeared for a few days, finally appeared today. Moreover, a woman sat next to him. This woman was obviously Yang Ming’s girlfriend, who was mentioned in the information. She was also one of Wang Kejin’s targets.
