Chapter 31

The mission that Yue Zhi casually said he would hand over to Qing Li, was turned over to Singo Ta, as Xijie He took three people to the Middle East, to protect one of Yue Clan’s executives to talk about oil business.

When he was talking to Singota about this, Qing Li was on the sidelines, and after thinking about it, she put on her headphones and turned up the music by two degrees.

With a book in Russian on her lap, she observed Singhota’s expression, but she could only see the other party’s light golden eyelashes naturally fluttering open and closed, her azure eyes devoid of any emotion and completely devoid of any other expression, just listening attentively to Yue Zhi’s mission.

Will it be a very difficult assassination mission, the original base of the mercenary group to do even such a thing, but assassination, Xingota is not the best choice, right.

Although she had not worked with the other side, but the West pole said, they formed a team of four or more people to do the force mission, Singh Tower is usually responsible for communications support that person, two meters tall strong body at least have to carry double radio backpacks and other basic equipment, load than the machine gunner are higher, and never need to be deputy.

Although Singota looked like a typical mercenary. He had a Ph.D. in communications from the University of London, and after graduation had gone into the military, once as a communications officer in the Special Forces.

Maybe it was a communications-related mission?

“Ah Li.” Yue Zhi called out to Qing Li, but Qing Li didn’t hear him at all, so he had to get up and walk over.

All of Qing Li’s attention was on Singhota’s body, he completely failed to notice Yue Zhi suddenly coming in front of him, and felt that his headset was suddenly taken off, his eyes suddenly widened.

Yue Zhi looked down at Qing Li’s slightly surprised eyes, helplessly said: “If this goes on, you are not old, your ears will be deaf first, you go get something to drink over.”

Qing Li then took off her headphones and went to the kitchen.

Yue Zhi returned to his original position and looked at the opposite side of Xingota for a moment, Xingota was using his cell phone to check the basic information of some of the mission targets, noticing his boss’s line of sight, he faintly raised his head, “Although I don’t know why she suddenly stared at me, I’m certain that she doesn’t have that intention towards me.”

“I didn’t say anything.” Yue Zhi said.

Singhota raised an eyebrow, “Your eyes already said it all.”

“OK, rephrase the mission.” Yue Zhi did not argue anything further.

Qing Li poured two glasses of water in the kitchen, then went to the refrigerator to look for ice, pulling open a compartment of drawers underneath, she saw a familiar paint bucket, white with a label that had been decolored.

She slowly opened it, and inside were a few more lollipops in fancy packaging, and she stared at them in a daze.

“There’s exactly three, take them out and let’s eat them.”

A voice suddenly sounded above her head, Qingli looked up and crashed into Yue Zhi’s gentle and elegant eyes, “Sir.”

“It’s impossible to keep it forever, might as well eat it while it’s within its shelf life.” Yue Zhi half squatted beside Qing Li, taking out the three lollipops inside, “Pick one.”

Qing Li looked at it for a while, and took the orange flavored one, although she knew that what was in it had nothing to do with oranges, but it was just the flavoring at work, “Is it okay for mister to eat this?”

Yue Zhi lost his smile, “What kind of person do you think I am, you still know nothing about my previous life, when times were tough, even a lollipop like this was a luxury.”

“Then I’ll take these two and split them with Singota.” He walked away carrying the two lollipops.

Singo Towers was going to go back to the base, but was kept back by Yue Zhi with a glass of water before leaving, he waited for a while, and in his hand, Yue Zhi stuffed a lollipop with a package that was still a bit slimy.

“What is this?” Singhota never ate this kind of thing, not so much the price, but this kind of snack that was completely devoid of nutrition and had nothing but cheap sweeteners.

“Something precious.” Yue Zhi said as he looked at Qing Li who came out of the kitchen.

Singhota coldly was about to put the stuff on the table when he saw Qing Li suddenly remembered what happened before, although he wasn’t there at that time, he had more or less heard about it, so he tore the package and stuffed the pink lollipop into his mouth and said to Qing Li, “Thank you.” Then while crunching the frozen hard lollipop ice, he left the main house and went back to the base.

Qing Li looked at Mighty Dang’s back and locked eyes with Yue Zhi, and for some reason, both of them suddenly laughed at the same time.

Yue Zhi was his usual bright laugh out loud, while Qing Li was her usual curved corner of her mouth.

“A bit too sweet.” Yue Zhi said of the lollipop in his hand.

Less than a week after that, Qing Li saw a familiar name on the news, the target of Singo Tower’s mission that she had overheard earlier.

That person was the Deputy Minister of Finance in Singapore, and was suddenly exposed for taking bribes, buying murders, money and power, and even love . A number of scandals such as sex trade were uncovered, along with solid evidence that saved the PCPD a lot of work.

This person was immediately suspended from duty to undergo investigation, but chose to jump off a building to kill himself when the PCPD and the police had just arrived downstairs. He represented the party had already been pushed to the tip of the storm, just take this to draw a line, and even used all the stolen money collected for charity, but harvested a lot of people’s goodwill, and even the party leader’s support has followed the rise of a lot.

Qing Li a little check, these scandals that have been blown up seem to have no connection, in fact, all of them are premeditated, alone those evidence, it is not the average person can casually get, even if the Office of the Public Prosecutor’s Office to go to the investigation, it may also take quite a lot of effort.

It was the handiwork of Singhota.

If the mission was the death of the target object, this was simply a bloodless way of doing it, and if his actions could be exposed to the public eye, he might even be praised as a righteous man, after all, it was the removal of a cancer in the government.

The mission was well done, sir should be pleased, Aonashi thought so.

As it turned out, Yue Zhi came back late that night, his hair a bit disheveled and carrying a bloodstain on his cheekbone.

“Sir, should we call a doctor over?” Qing Li frowned at the injury on his face.

Yue Zhi waved his hand, “You bring the medicine box over, just treat it casually.”

Qing Li carefully sterilized his wounds, without saying a word more, she felt that at this moment, Yue Qi was a bit strange, with an obvious air of agitation, in a bad mood, and his face was a bit gloomy, the corners of his lips were all tightly tensed.

The living room was quiet, there was no sound for a long time.

Qing Li packed up the medicine box and sat quietly next to it, she looked up at Liang Jin across the room, wanting to know what exactly happened to Yue Zhi tonight.

Liang Jin, however, did not move and shook his head at her, signaling that it would be best for her not to ask more questions.

“Liang Jin, have Xiji and the others returned?” Yue Zhi suddenly asked.

Liang Jin said, “Not yet, after the mission ended yesterday, they went straight to Dubai to play.”

“Call them to come back, start driving to work from tomorrow, send three bodyguard cars, my car is in the center, one in the front and two in the back, in the car, except for a fixed number of people, the others will be drawn by lot, go to the security company to lead the team as an instructor of the work of all stopped, those who did not draw will be on standby at the base.” Yue Zhi said.

Qing Li’s spirit tightened up for a moment, Yue Zhi arranging like this, must have determined that she had been targeted and would be in some kind of danger, she couldn’t help but open her mouth, “Sir, have you determined who the other party is, do you want Xiji and I to go directly to the door to get rid of the other party?”

Yue Zhi looked at her for a moment and suddenly asked, “Ah Li, do you want to fixate on the convoy, you might be in danger.”

“Definitely.” Qing Li said, “Please make sure that I protect Mister’s safety every day.”

Yue Zhi nodded, “Good, apart from Xiji, Menggema and Elephant, plus one more Qing Li, the rest will be decided by lot.”

“What about bodyguard duties?” Liang Jin asked, Yue Zhi had two scheduled bodyguards every day.

“Canceled.” Yue Zhi said, “It will start tomorrow, first draw from those who are at the base.”

Liang Jin closed his laptop and went to the base to arrange the tasks.

Qing Li did not speak, nor did she leave, looking at the way Yue Zhi propped up his chin and leaned back on the sofa with his eyes downcast, not knowing what he was thinking about, his heart silently flooded with a little bit of unknown pain, as if a thorn had been stabbed, and then ruffled a little bit.

Just who is able to hurt Yue Zhi it, who is the bodyguard today, is there no protection at the heel?

“Ah Li.”

“I am.”

“If one day you lose your life because of my mission or protecting me, will you regret it?” Yue Zhi asked her.

Qing Li looked at him calmly as they stared at each other.

Her features brought with them some detachment and aloofness, and the slightly raised corners of her eyes made her look haughty and cold when she looked at people with her eyes half-open, but such an aura had never actually appeared in her eyes.

Those gray-blue, beautiful eyes that could only be seen in bright places.

Ninety percent of the parts of those eyes were calm, the remaining ten percent were shown only to Yue Zhi, or only Yue Zhi could see them, were trust, obedience, and other straightforward emotions that were completely undisguised and did not need to be thought about.

“No.” Qing Li said, “Before I die, Sir has already given me a free life.”

Yue Zhi reached out and rubbed the corners of her eyes with his thumbs until he had rubbed the area red, “Very well, Ah Li …… is very good.”

There was a road from the estate to Singapore, a road that wouldn’t show up on a map, it crossed the Singapore-Malaysia border but had absolutely no entry or exit chokepoints, a privilege of Yue Zhi’s.

For the next three or four days, four all-black cars traveled this road in columns for over an hour every morning to Yue’s Mansion, and then returned the same way in the evening, just to escort Yue Zhi to work.

Nothing happened, but no one would ask one more question, and no one would relax their guard because of the daily calm.

Until the fifth day, when Yue Zhi had to go on a business trip.

“Almost all of the goods in the Malacca port have been seized, and the freighters have been banned from sailing, we haven’t yet found out who from above is deliberately working against us, but this matter will have to be run by Mister himself.” Liang Jin said.

The Strait of Malacca is now shared by Singapore, Malay and Indonesia, although Yue Zhi at least actually control about seventy percent of the port operation, but also had to negotiate with the government to cooperate, after all, Malacca’s share of the port trade accounted for a quarter of the world’s maritime trade, it is really a weight.

“About two hundred kilometers of road from the manor to Malacca, high helicopter risk, obvious target, drive there, leave in an hour.” Yue Zhi gave the order calmly and quickly.

An hour later, the convoy that had increased to five vehicles was ready to depart.

“Put Qing Li in the fourth car.” Qing Li said to Liang Jin.

Liang Jin was stunned for a moment, nodded, walked over, and said to the crowd, “Xiji, Elephant and I will ride in one car with Mister and drive in the center, Mongoma will be in charge of the head car, Falcon will be in charge of the second car, Qing Li, you will follow Singota and get in the fourth car, the rest of us will draw lots to decide.”

Qing Li had already stood beside Yue Zhi’s car, when she heard this, she subconsciously glanced at Yue Zhi in the doorway.

Yue Zhi was talking to someone on the phone with his back to them and did not notice her line of sight.

Qing Li then walked over and stood beside Singhota, the situation was critical, Yue Zhi’s car naturally had to arrange for the strongest person, it was her who took it too for granted.

Yue Zhi hung up the phone and glanced at Qing Li’s back, in a crowd of tall and strong men, slender enough to catch the eye.

He drew his eyes away without any expression.
