Feng Junzi was explaining how to find Qing Chen, while Xiao Bai was practicing his fist on the side and perking up his ears to listen. Xiang Zhengrong said: "I've heard that it's been calm and peaceful lately, even the patrol officers have withdrawn and are no longer in ambush, but Qing Chen still hasn't come."

  Feng Junzi: "That girl is stupid, in the past she would tell you when she was going to kill someone, thinking she's Yan Wangye. Now she's finally learned her lesson, not telling you when she'll make a move, making you wait every day and suffer, that's what I call formidable! I reckon she had something on previously and will come again, maybe even tonight."

  Xiao Zhengrong: "Don't be so mysterious, when are you going to make a move?"

  Feng Junzi: "It's not hard to know, my old classmate Shang Yunfei left Wuyou and returned to Guo Mo country today. Because of the wine meeting incident, he claimed that he was unhappy and left his two personal bodyguards to protect Hong Yunsheng."

  Xiao Zhengrong: "He's quite generous, giving two bodyguards to others, doesn't he need someone to protect himself?"

  Feng Junzi shook his head: "He can bear it himself, doesn't need others' protection, and doesn't collect protection fees from others, that's already a blessing."

  Xiao Zhengrong: "How are the two bodyguards he left behind?"

  Feng Junzi: "Protecting Hong Yunsheng's safety shouldn't be a problem, otherwise the police wouldn't let him go. However, if you want to capture Hong Yunsheng, there's no need to kill him. I heard that since he wet his pants at the banquet, he's been ill and now urinates uncontrollably whenever he hears glass shattering. What's the point of killing him when he's already suffering like this? It's better to let him live and suffer!"

  Xiao Zhengrong: "Stay in this world and suffer? Your words are ruthless!"

  Feng Junzi: "It's not that I'm cruel, but those people are too vicious! What they've done, killing them with a knife would be letting them off easy. Do you know where Hong Yunsheng lives?"

  Xiao Zhengrong: "I don't know."

  Feng Junzi: "I know!" Then he said out Hong Yunsheng's detailed address, and added a sentence: "The two bodyguards left by Shang Yunfei are only responsible for his safety, as long as Hong Yunsheng is not in danger of losing his life, they won't care about other things."

  At this time, Xiao Zhengrong stood up and shouted at Xiaobai: "How did you punch that? Swatting flies? East and west, no style!"

  Xiaobai overheard their conversation, and without realizing it, his focus was disrupted. Scolded by Xiao Zhengrong, he quickly regained his composure and continued to practice his fist technique diligently. The speaker may have spoken unintentionally, but the listener had a clear intention. Feng Junzi guessed that Qingchen would make a move against Hong Yunsheng tonight, so Xiaobai thought that the best opportunity to see Qingchen was tonight, at a location near Hong Yunsheng's residence.

  That night, after finishing his boxing practice and returning home, Xiao Bai told Zhuo Ru that he had to "work overtime" at night. He changed into a dark-colored sports suit and left the house with a small shovel hanging from his waist and the sharp Shenyue dagger tied to his left forearm with two leather straps hidden in his sleeve. Unbeknownst to anyone, he sneaked into Tianxing Garden, a high-end residential community in Wuyou City, without alarming anyone. He had received security training for quite some time and was familiar with where cameras might be installed and which corners might have surveillance. With his agility, he could easily scale walls and traverse rooftops with just a bit of effort.

  Rich people are different, Hong Yunsheng can't be compared to Luo Shuihan, it's impossible to have such a large private villa in the downtown area. His residence is a three-story independent villa in Tianxing Garden Community, surrounded by a small courtyard enclosed by low fences. The first and third floors were dark, but two rooms on the second floor still had lights on.

  In front of a true master, Xiao Bai never considered himself a master, he was very careful not to get too close, observed the terrain and climbed up a tree. The high-end residential area is indeed high-end, the greening around it is not simply planting a few rows of arborvitae, there are even tall trees between the houses. The big tree chosen by Xiao Bai is not far from Hong Yunsheng's villa, hiding in the treetops can see the situation around that house clearly.

  Xiao Bai was like a large gecko stuck to the top of the tree, motionless and observing his surroundings. However, after more than half the night had passed, there wasn't a single sound. Had Mr. Feng guessed wrong? Would Qing Chen not come tonight? Just as he thought this, he caught a whiff of something in the night wind, and then felt someone behind him!

  Imagine this, in the dead of night, everything is pitch black, it's so quiet that there's no sound of human voices, only the rustling of wind blowing through the tree branches. You climb to the top of a tree and remain still, suddenly you feel like someone is behind you. This feeling is actually quite frightening, but Xiao Bai didn't feel afraid, instead he felt a surge of joy in his heart. Because this scent that carried the fragrance of a young girl was very familiar to him, even in his dreams he had smelled it before, it was Qing Chen's scent. He turned his head around, and indeed saw Qing Chen standing on a nearby tree branch, the Zongzi Purple Gold Spear in her hand was emitting a faint glow.

  "Clear dust, is it really you?" Xiaobai stood up, almost forgetting that he was on the treetop.

  "Be careful, don't fall." Qingchen supported him with a hand, and the two of them swayed at the same time. A few leaves fell to the ground, and the lights on the second floor of the villa not far away suddenly went out.

  "Xiao Bai Ge, are you here to deal with Hong Yunsheng? There's an expert in the villa, I'm afraid we've already been discovered." Qingchen said quietly.

  "I'm not here for him, I'm waiting for you. I guess you might come tonight." Xiaobai didn't care whether the lights were on or off in the villa, and only spoke to Qingchen.

  "Wait for me! You've waited a long time for me, haven't you?"

  "It's not much time, just midnight."

  Qing Chen: "Why wait for me? You're stupid, what if I didn't come?"

  "Because I missed you!" This opening line was a big truth.

  The two of them fell silent, standing face to face on the densely leafed treetop, their faces close enough to feel each other's breath, but neither knew what to say next. After a long time, Qingchen let out a soft sigh and advised, "You've seen me now, so go quickly. There are experts in the villa, if we start fighting, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."

  Bai Shaoyu stretched out his left hand and grabbed the wrist of Qingchen's gun-wielding hand. With his speed, in this small space, Qingchen didn't even have time to dodge. Holding onto Qingchen's hand, he said: "Listen to me, I've got a great idea - don't kill him, today we'll just smash some glass for fun!"

  "Smash glass?"

  Bai Shaoliu: "Why must you kill him? I have a better idea. How about we play a game together?"

  "Still in a daze: 'Playing games?'"

  Bai Shaofeng leaned in and whispered a few words into her ear, and Qingchen finally understood. She thought for half a day and her tone became relaxed, with a hint of amusement: "Little White wants to play games? Well, let's play together then, I haven't played games in a long time."

  Bai Shaoliu: "Right, we should be happier when we're together. Wait for me, I'll go pick up a few bricks and bring them up."

  Qingchen: "Don't use bricks, Little White Brother, don't move, watch this." She broke off a branch about a few inches long, raised her hand and threw it out. In mid-air, she made a gesture with her hand, and the branch seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, suspended in the air for a moment before flying back quickly. Qingchen stretched out her hand to catch it. The small branch floated gently through the air, but it could stir up a whistling sound, looking quite powerful, and shattering two glass panes would be no problem at all.

  "Wow, how amazing! It even turns around and flies back!"

  Qing Chen: "I just learned it too, is this okay?"

  "Alright! Use this to smash the glass. Be careful, don't smash our side, go around and smash the other side."

  He nodded and waved his hand, the branch flying out very far, drawing an arc in the night sky before returning, heading straight for the back of the villa. Immediately after, a crisp sound of shattering glass was heard. There were voices coming from inside the villa, and Xiaobai could see the shadowy figures moving behind the curtains through the glass. He smiled at Qingchen and said, "Let's not move for now, wait a while before continuing to smash, no one will come out."

  Qing Chen: "Are you so sure? There are experts inside, and they also know someone is on this tree."

  Bai Shaoliu: "As a bodyguard, the most taboo thing is to fall for the trick of 'making a false move to distract and scatter the enemy', just shattering a piece of glass makes a big noise but it's not a big deal. Now the top priority is to keep an eye on Hong Yunsheng... They don't know that you and I didn't come here to kill anyone today, we're just here to smash some glass for fun."

  Qing Chen: "I almost forgot, you're now a bodyguard for the Luo family, you should understand these things... Can we smash again now?"

  "Alright, switch sides, this time smash the glass on the left."

  Qingchen responded with a nod and broke off another branch, tossing it out casually. The branch rotated in mid-air before hitting the left window of the third floor of the villa, producing another crisp sound of shattering glass. Still, no one rushed out from inside the villa. The two exchanged a glance, and although Xiaobai couldn't see Qingchen's face, he could sense her amusement. After a while, they repeated their actions, smashing the right window this time. Suddenly, the streetlights in the neighborhood lit up, and voices came from the security guard room in the distance. The successive sounds of shattering glass startled the guards, who approached with flashlights, wearing uniforms.

  Bai Shaoliu: "The security guard is coming, he'll find us in a moment."

  "How did they know we were in the tree?"

  Bai Shaoliu: "If I were one of the villa's residents, I'd call security and tell them there's someone on this tree throwing bricks at windows. We can hold back for now and let others force us to reveal our presence."

  "Then let's go."

  "Wait, we can still make one last move, smash and run! You take these."

  Qingchen lowered his head and saw what Xiaobai was holding in his hand: "I can't control so many!" It turned out that Xiaobai had nothing to do with it earlier, plucking a large handful of short twigs one by one and stuffing them all into Qingchen's hand. He smiled mischievously and said: "Do you still remember how you threw peanuts at my house that day? Just smash them like that, throw them out and don't care, use as much strength as you have, hit the front face squarely."

  Qing Chen finally burst out laughing: "Xiao Bai Ge, you're really bad!" As he spoke, he exerted himself and swung his hand, causing the big tree under Xiao Bai's feet to sway. A large handful of short branches shot out like a meteor shower, hitting the wall and shattering the glass. The entire first to third floor of the villa facing Xiao Bai's side was covered in shattered glass!

  The crisp crackling sound echoed through the quiet night, like a hailstorm, as piercing as it was loud. Many households in the neighborhood turned on their lights, awakened by the noise. The security guards who rushed to the scene were also drawn to the sound. Qingchen whispered "Let's go!" from the tree, holding the purple gold spear in one hand and grabbing Xiaobai's arm with the other, flying down from the tree and escaping into the night, using the shadows of the buildings as cover, disappearing from Tianxing Garden neighborhood.

  It was already past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and the streets of Wuyi City were empty and deserted. The two people moved swiftly, like ghostly shadows passing by, and even if someone saw them, they would think it was just their eyes playing tricks on them. When they finally stopped and stood still, Xiaobai realized that they had unintentionally arrived at the beachside of Binhai Park's pier. There was no one chasing after them from behind, and except for the moonlight in the sky and the sound of the waves, everything around them was quiet and still.

  "Clear dust, did you have fun playing today?" Xiaobai asked her as she gazed out at the sea.

  "Thanks for waiting for me today, I haven't laughed in a long time." Qingchen also looked out at the sea.

  Bai Shaoliu: "As long as you're happy, today is really lucky, and I actually waited for you."

  Qingchen lowered his head: "You've also seen me, it's not early anymore, I should go." After finishing speaking, he turned around and picked up his gun to leave. Xiaobai was anxious, stretched out her hand to hold onto Qingchen, with Qingchen's speed if he really wanted to leave Xiaobai might not be able to catch up, but apparently he wasn't walking fast.

  "It's not easy to meet each other, how can you leave so soon? Stay a little longer." Xiaobai held onto Qingchen's hand and wouldn't let go.

  Qingchen stopped again, and Xiao Bai felt her heart beating a little faster. She asked through the veil, "Xiao Bai ge, what do you want to do?"

  Bai Shaoliu grasped her arm, the two of them very close together. Qingchen's stature was not tall, her forehead only reaching the tip of Bai Shaoliu's nose. He could smell the faint scent emanating from her hair. He didn't know where the urge came from, but he blurted out: "I want to hug you!"

  As soon as the words came out, Qingchen tried to break free, but Xiaobai quickly moved in front of her and wrapped her arms around her. With a soft "hmm", Qingchen's body went limp in Xiaobai's embrace. On the quiet beach, a loud "thud" was heard - it was Qingchen's heavy purple gold spear falling to the ground, shattering several cobblestones.

  Xiaobai's one hand wrapped around Qingchen's slender waist, the other hand passed through her black hair and stroked the back of her head. Qingchen quietly nestled in Xiaobai's arms, lowering her head to bury her face in his chest without speaking. The two remained silent like this, under the moonlight with the sea breeze blowing, until Xiaobai broke the silence: "Qingchen, have you thought about the future?"

  Qing Chen spoke in front of Xiao Bai's chest, her voice somewhat unclear: "I've been thinking, I've always thought about what I should do?"

  Bai Shaoliu: "The world is so big and there are so many things, you can't carry them all on your shoulders as a young lady. I have an idea, do you want to hear it?"

  "Qing Chen: 'You speak, I listen.'"

  "I'm making money now too. Later on, I'll buy a house of my own and you can stop running around everywhere, move in with me and we can live together like we used to."

  Qing Chen: "Like before? The national patrol officers are all after me."

  "What's the big deal? No one knows you anyway. As long as you take off that veil and put on modern clothes, aren't you just like everyone else?"

  Qing Chen fell silent for half a day before humming and saying, "Don't dream first, you're still living in someone else's house eating and drinking for free."

  "Are you aware of my situation?"

  Qing Chen: "I know a lot of things, ... Little White Brother, actually I also want to find you."

  "Are you thinking of me too?"

  "Who would have thought of you?"

  "You can't fool me, I can feel it."

  Qing Chen: "No wonder your skin is so thick! I have something to tell you, do you know a donkey?"

  "Ah? I actually know a donkey, named White Hair, raised in a horse farm."

  Qing Chen: "What I want to say is that donkey, you must pay attention, it's not an ordinary donkey."

  Bai Shaoliu: "You know this too? That donkey can talk to me, he told me all his stories. His name is Qī Yè, and he used to be an extraordinary expert. The things in this world are really strange - who did you hear it from?"

  Qing Chen: "I heard it from a friend and was going to tell you, but it turns out you already knew. How can a donkey talk?"

  Bai Shaoliu: "It's not like speaking to a person, it can communicate with me through heart-to-heart exchange, I don't know if you can understand?... Let's not talk about the donkey when we're together, let's talk about us, okay?"

  Qing Chen: "Us? Aren't we talking right now? Little White Brother, you must be careful and don't stir up trouble recently."

  Qing Chen, a troublemaker and killer, advised Xiao Bai to cause less trouble. Xiao Bai stroked her hair and said, "You know I'm not one to stir up trouble for no reason. If something happens, I have no choice. Qing Chen, we've been standing here blowing sea breeze, aren't you cold?"

  Qing Chen: "I'm not cold, you're holding me, if anyone's cold it should be you."

  Bai Shaofeng: "Let's not stand here as scenery, shall we sit on the beach chairs for a while?"

  Qingchen nodded, and Xiao Bai let go of her hand. She bent down to pick up the long gun on the ground, but Xiao Bai had already picked it up with his left hand. He slung the two-meter-long purple gold spear over his shoulder with one hand, and held Qingchen's hand with the other as they walked towards a bench in the nearby park. The spear was really heavy, while Qingchen's hands were so soft!
