Hidden Assassin 101

“Beauty, I don’t think I’ve done anything to offend you…” After dodging a kick, Jia Ming pretended to be innocent, but his response was an even more fierce spin kick. “Whether or not you’ve been offended is up to me!”

“Then please tell me, I will definitely reflect on it.”

“You better die once before you reflect!”

“Bang!” Ya Han destroyed a lamp. Jia Ming jumped from the sofa to a further distance, “That’s too difficult, I can’t do it. We’re all friends, can’t we change it to something simpler? Hey…”

“Okay, you just need to stand there and not move, that’s simple enough!”

“My brain hasn’t gone to water…”

From the living room to the bedroom, then back from the bedroom to the living room, the battle was truly intense. Ya Han was tall with long legs, and she was wearing a professional two-piece skirt, with tight and seductive black stockings covering her long legs. When she kicked high, one could almost see the roots of her thighs. If it were any other time, it would be a truly delightful sight, but at this moment, perhaps only Jia Ming could still think about such things in the midst of his frantic dodging.

Ya Han was not the kind of weak girl who could only use a few fancy moves. Although her beautiful appearance made it easy to believe that, if she really encountered some clueless lecher, her techniques, more proficient than Sha Sha and Ling Jing’s, and her stronger strikes would definitely make them deeply understand what it meant to suffer unbearable pain. She had a deep understanding of Jia Ming’s skills, so she didn’t hold back at all, every strike was full force. In a short time, a phone, two lamps, a pillow, and a picture frame were all destroyed by her attacks.

Clearly, Ya Han was very angry, and the consequences were severe.

After chasing Jia Ming around the living room for several more rounds, Jia Ming’s escape skills were at their peak, and all of Ya Han’s energy was released into the air. She couldn’t help but feel frustrated, cursing, “You stand still, aren’t you very powerful? Aren’t you very manly? You fought single-handedly against hundreds of people, and you even forced them to that island, causing half of them to die and half to be captured… Don’t run, if you have guts, fight me one-on-one!”

“But you look scarier than those hundreds of people, sister… Whoa!”

Quickly swatting away a pillow that came flying at him, Ya Han had already rushed over in three or two steps. Jia Ming’s body swayed to the right, then he bounced to the left. Ya Han hastily tried to change direction, but her already tortured high heels finally gave way and broke. Then…

“Whoa!”

With a bang, the two of them fell to the ground at the same time. Ya Han rolled over and pressed down on Jia Ming, “Humph, see if you can run now.”

“I was trying to save you, you don’t have to treat me like this, being ungrateful is wrong…”

“Humph.” Ya Han tried to put on the most vicious and cruel face, “That was me being cunning, you fell for it because you’re stupid! Say, how do you want to die?”

“How about the way men like to die the most?”

After chasing each other around for a long time, Jia Ming didn’t react much, but Ya Han was already gasping for breath, her chest heaving. They could both smell each other’s scent, of course, Ya Han’s was a pleasant body fragrance, while Jia Ming’s could only be described as the scent of soap. If she were a woman who hated men, she would probably describe it as “the disgusting body odor of a man”. With this ambiguous posture, coupled with Jia Ming’s teasing, Ya Han’s face turned slightly red. Before she could speak, Jia Ming changed the subject, “Do you know, your posture is too amateurish, I can break your neck in a thousand ways in one second.”

“Humph, try it.” Ya Han hit Jia Ming hard in the chest, then limped to the sofa on the side, taking off her shoes to check the place where she had twisted her foot. Jia Ming sighed, walked over and sat down next to her. He was an expert in跌打 (diě dǎ, a traditional Chinese medical practice for treating injuries and pain), although Ya Han was initially too stubborn to pay attention to him, she finally rested her injured right foot on his leg, allowing him to do whatever he wanted. As Jia Ming’s hand passed over, it felt warm and numb. Ya Han felt comfortable, but then she heard Jia Ming say, “Hmm, nice feel.”

“Feel… Can you even do this… Ah!” As she spoke, a sharp pain shot through her, Ya Han screamed, then angrily kicked her left foot over, “You’re deliberately making fun of me?”

Jia Ming grinned cheekily, “You’ve chased me for so long, I have to get some interest back.”

“Humph, I didn’t even hit you once.” Ya Han rolled her eyes in frustration, “By the way, this incident is such a big deal, they went to the island and didn’t find Mr. Yu Jin Xiang, they’re bound to suspect you, what are you going to do?”

“Hehehe, suspect me if they want.” Jia Ming smiled lightly, “If I didn’t show you, would you think I’m a powerful and mysterious guy? Besides, not finding him doesn’t mean he’s not there. They’ve probably already discovered some clues on this ship… There’s one more person…”

“Ah?”

“Hehehe, it’s my teacher, the Mr. Yu Jin Xiang they’re looking for.”

“Cut it out.” Her beautiful little leg kicked Jia Ming’s shoulder lightly, “I don’t believe your teacher stuff, you’re a monster… I’ve heard a lot of confidential information from my dad, that Japanese killer king, he was forced to retreat by your Mr. Yu Jin Xiang on the ship. Oh my god, he’s the legendary number one killer in the world, all the powerful bodyguards on the ship couldn’t do anything to him, you didn’t even move and scared him away, you’re a real hero… Then you stole the enemy’s ship, sent a distress signal to the navy, and then disappeared without a trace… Why don’t you just die at sea!”

From seemingly soft adoration to vicious curses, Ya Han’s left leg suddenly kicked out, but Jia Ming caught it in mid-air. After struggling on the sofa for a while, the clawing and snarling woman finally calmed down, still staring at Jia Ming with a puffed-up face, her eyes seemed to have a glimmer of tears, which she quickly wiped away as if by accident.

“Uh, sorry, but… I had to do that at the time, I don’t know what they did to the radio equipment on the ship, and Ling Jing and I were forced to go there, so I had to steal their ship and run. Of course I wanted to kill my way back in a very heroic way, but in the end, I’m just one person…”

“You know you’re just one person…”

“Hehehe…” Although he knew she was concerned about him, he wasn’t used to the current atmosphere, so he chuckled, “Why are you suddenly so concerned about me, are you falling for me? Although teacher-student love is tempting, but we two… wouldn’t it look strange? You’re a better match for the one on the ship, Dongfang Lu…”

The expression on Ya Han’s face paused slightly, then she didn’t argue with Jia Ming, she just said, “Don’t get cocky… I just consider you my best friend, although you don’t really deserve to be friends with a remarkable lady like me, but… compared to a boring guy like Dongfang Lu, I think you’re a bit more agreeable.”

“You really have no taste…” Jia Ming smiled, “Even a fool can see that Dongfang Lu is better than me.”

“You were more suitable to be a friend at that time, we have an age gap, and you’re not handsome, no matter how close we get, I have no interest in favoring you. But Dongfang Lu is different, if he’s too handsome, I’m afraid I can’t control myself. So in that respect, you’re still better than Dongfang Lu, hehehe…”

“I’m really happy to be praised by you…”

****************************************************************

Back in Jiang Hai City, the impact of the 104 Terror incident was still being hyped up. As one of the few people who had direct contact with Mr. Yu Jin Xiang, Jia Ming and Ling Jing had been questioned twice by the people from Yan Huang Jue Xing (the organization responsible for fighting foreign powers and threats to China’s national security). They had discussed their testimonies beforehand, so there was no major problem. Although, according to Dongfang Lu and others, Cui Guohua and the others suspected Jia Ming a little, they ultimately wouldn’t believe that Jia Ming had the power to confront Yuan Lai Chao Chuang (a powerful Japanese organization), anyone who said so would be considered crazy.

As one of the five major families in Jiang Hai City, the Huang family had little contact with Yan Huang Jue Xing, but they could still get some information through secret channels. They roughly knew that Jia Ming had been in contact with someone who had turned the tide of the last incident. They also questioned Jia Ming two or three times, interspersed with some polite inquiries, but ultimately didn’t suspect Jia Ming too much because of his vague answers to key questions. Around October 20th, after a period of rest, Jia Ming, Ling Jing, and Sha Sha finally returned to school.

After telling Sha Sha about Jia Ming’s incredible skills and the inside story, it didn’t cause a big stir in their little family. The only request was that if anything happened in the future, they would tell each other and solve it together. Every girl hopes that the boy she likes is a great hero, and Sha Sha had a contented nature. After experiencing such a period of fear and anxiety, she was happy enough to be able to squeeze into bed with her two family members every night. Eating, chatting, and making fun of each other, one night she even woke up crying in Jia Ming’s arms. In the darkness, the three of them hugged each other, then fell asleep again.

Yue Chi Xun, who had been in the hospital, also returned to school early. Xu Yi Ting, who wore glasses and had a big braid, often came to inquire about the three of them, and now she finally felt relieved. The Dongfang siblings also returned to school. Dongfang Wan, recovering from her injuries, was full of energy. The club she was planning to establish in the class had been approved, the name was “Travel Club”, and she said they would try to organize hiking, camping, and tourism trips during each long holiday, and each participant would only need to pay a small fee.

Of course, only a brainless woman who wanted to be a public figure would do something as stupid as paying for club activities out of her own pocket. That’s probably what Jia Ming thought in his heart. Since they had sold their tickets on the ship, Jia Ming’s little family now had a sum of money that wasn’t much but wasn’t little either, and they were worrying about what to buy for the house. Computers, sofas, water heaters, although they hadn’t decided yet, the two girls were very excited every time they planned it, their faces filled with happiness. This simple sense of happiness might be something that even billionaires who have pursued it all their lives can’t get.

On the morning of the 24th, as soon as they arrived at the classroom, Dongfang Wan, who hadn’t said a word to Jia Ming since they parted ways on the island, seemed to be somewhat furious and walked over. It was the expression of someone who was coming to demand an explanation, “Gu Jia Ming, why didn’t you submit the form to join the club?!”
