Chapter 1072 - 1071: United Front! A Contest Between Men!

The words "Blood Woman" slipped out.

Qin Xin paused slightly in her steps.

It finally happened, these words could finally verify the identity of the Red Robe Man.

Back then, the Red Robe Man wanted to catch her and kill her, mocking her constantly with one phrase: Blood Woman.

He wanted her blood and her life.

For what purpose exactly?

If she doesn’t figure this out, she will always live in the shadow of imminent danger.

Yesterday was a Red Robe Man, tomorrow it could be a Black Robe or White Robe Man.

As long as the mission against her isn’t over, she will never have peace.

Qin Xin turned around slowly: "Clarify your words."

Young Master Hai successfully made her pause, curling his lips into a gentle smile: "Lan, if you’re interested in this clue, I’ll do my utmost to follow through with the investigation. Who is Blood Woman, who is searching for her, and... the next executor of the mission."

Qin Xin raised an eyebrow: "How do you know there will be a next executor?"

Young Master Hai: "The fact that you discovered the Red Robe Red Snake, surely he can’t survive. Someone will have to take over his work, won’t they?"

Indeed, he is a clever man, capable of inferring unknown possibilities from the known threads.

Truly has the skills worthy of being called "Young Master" in the underworld.

Qin Xin pondered for a moment: "Continue the investigation."

Then she placed the check she had just taken back onto the table: "Thanks for your hard work."

Young Master Hai chuckled: "Actually, I’m not a money-driven person. Lan, if there’s ever time to ask you out for tea, I wouldn’t require a single penny for this intel..."

He hadn’t finished speaking.

Si Moyu had already darkened his face, flatly rejecting on behalf of Qin Xin: "Business is business, don’t overthink it. We’re quite busy, so let’s not disturb each other! Little Ao, Little Bai, Little Jing, aren’t you going to operate the elevator?"

For the first time, Little Ao, Little Bai, and Little Jing obediently followed the orders of Si Moyu, the big boss, immediately fulfilling their duties as "servant bodyguards," escorting Qin Xin to the elevator.

Their movements were synchronously aligned, united against the outside!

Leaving Young Master Hai standing alone in the lavish reception hall: "Why do beautiful women always have annoying, inconsiderate guys blocking my time alone with them?"

He raised the untouched wine glass belonging to Qin Xin on the table, pouring himself a full cup.

Upon exiting the customs hall, Bai Chi was the first to exclaim: "Damn it, Young Master Hai is way too shameless, trying to invite our Little Qingxin for tea? It pissed me off! Xin, people like him who run an intel company in such filthy places as customs halls are surely not good people. Let’s not do business with him."

Qin Xin gave him a slight glance: "You think you could find a righteous gentleman to handle this kind of work?"

It’s the filth that uncovers the filth.

Otherwise, how could she imagine the connection between Blood Woman and the Twelve Elders?

Ao Xinghao: "Xin, don’t bother with the idiot, all his ideas are rotten. In the future, leave the task of meeting Young Master Hai to me. That’s to find the whereabouts of Red Snake and what the Blood Woman is all about, right?"

Qin Xin hesitated but refrained: "The situation is complex; it’s better if I handle it personally."

Seeing Qin Xin tactfully refuse Ao Xinghao, Bai Chi rejoiced, playfully sticking his tongue out at Ao Xinghao.

The unified alliance established at Young Master Hai’s place just fragmented halfway through.

Yet Si Moyu showed his leadership, patting Bai Chi’s head, and glaring at Ao Xinghao: "From now on, whenever Xin goes out, we’re just bodyguards. Xin can meet whoever she wants, and we’ll just escort her, right? No need for so much nonsense."

Jing Zhichen: "Agreed."

Ao Xinghao and Bai Chi also nodded.

No doubt, on this point, they should reach a consensus; the rivalry between men should prioritize the bigger picture and not sweat the small stuff.

The alliance that almost shattered finally glued itself back together again.
