"Qin Yu, what's wrong?"Yan Mingyu also stopped in her tracks.
"Since the milk tea shop, it seems like someone has been following us. However, this person is an expert, I can't lock onto him!"
Qin Yu said with a grave expression.
"Then… shall we skip the movie?"
Yan Mingyu pondered for a moment before responding.
"Yeah, let's continue walking on the street for a while and see if that person will follow!"
After Qin Yu finished speaking, he continued strolling with the two beauties.
However, as darkness fell, the stalker hidden in the shadows did not show up again.
"Umm... I'm hungry, let's have Western food!"
Liu Xiaoxiao rubbed her flat tummy and suggested.
"Sure, my treat!"
Yan Mingyu, with her bestie and Qin Yu, entered a fancy Western restaurant.
On the main street.
Your journey continues with empire
A figure wearing a duckbill cap deeply glanced at the Western restaurant before pressing down the brim of his cap and blending into the crowd.
Qin Yu seemed to sense something and looked out to the main street through the glass window.
But he still came up empty-handed.
After dining with the two beauties, he drove them back home separately.
Before leaving, Qin Yu seriously said to Yan Mingyu, "Call me right away if anything happens!"
"Got it!"
Yan Mingyu nodded, taking the "spoils of war" from the day's shopping from Qin Yu: "Get some rest early when you get back!"
"See you tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow then!"
Qin Yu hailed a taxi, got in, and after not going far, he told the driver, "Stop here, please!"
"What's up, buddy?"
The taxi driver asked, puzzled.
"I'll get off here!"
Having said that, Qin Yu paid for the ride with his phone and then exited the vehicle.
This afternoon, the persistent feeling of being tailed had left him uneasy. He decided to find a nearby hotel to stay, so if Yan Mingyu really ran into trouble, he could rush over promptly.
After spending a hundred yuan on a room, Qin Yu sent his location to Yan Mingyu: "Mingyu, sleep peacefully, I'm nearby!"
"Thank you…"
Yan Mingyu stood by the window, faintly able to make out the location of the hotel. Qin Yu's attentiveness touched her heart.
In the middle of the night.
Qin Yu was already emitting gentle snores, sleeping soundly.
A shadowy figure, stealthy and silent, climbed in through the window.
Holding something sharp in hand, they plunged it violently towards Qin Yu's neck.
"Whoosh..."
But suddenly, the duvet was flung open and thrown directly at the intruder.
Then, Qin Yu's legs lashed out like lightning.
However, the opponent was quick to react, twirling the duvet around one arm, their long leg thrusting against Qin Yu's.
After a loud thump, both retreated several steps.
"Huh..."
Qin Yu felt a vague sense of familiarity with the figure, but he couldn't quite remember who it was at the moment.
"Hehe, discharged but not out of form, Reaper. You're still as quick to react!"
The other party started to laugh, a clear and crisp female voice.
"Instructor Lu?"
Qin Yu's voice grew excited.
"You still remember me, huh!"
The woman took off her duckbill cap, revealing a head of neat, shoulder-length hair.
With large eyes and thick, long eyebrows, she exuded an aura of valor.
"Could it be... you were the one following me today?"
Qin Yu saw it was an old acquaintance and relaxed his tense body.
"Not bad, I heard you were in the East Sea, so I made a special trip to test you, to see if your skills have deteriorated!"
Lu Wenrou said.
"Oh... that's good, I thought I had encountered a tough expert!"
After Qin Yu finished speaking, he asked with confusion, "Instructor Lu, you... retired too?"
"Mm, I transferred and joined a special department."
Lu Wenrou nodded.
"Then... you're here in the East Sea on a mission, right?"
Qin Yu didn't believe that Instructor Lu would come to the East Sea to test his skills out of boredom.
"Two things, first, I want to fight you. I was never satisfied with losing to you during our sparring. Second, I'm investigating the Sato Clan's activities in the East Sea. If it's convenient for you, I hope you can help me."
Lu Wenrou stated straightforwardly.
"No problem, the people from the Sato Clan are indeed a bit arrogant in the East Sea, and I can't wait for someone to deal with them!"
Qin Yu readily agreed.
"Alright, let's start with the first matter, let's go to the rooftop and have a good fight!"
Lu Wenrou lifted her chin.
She threw the sharp object in her hand into the trash bin—it was nothing more than a plastic cake knife.
Of course, if she really wanted to kill someone, that plastic knife would be sufficient.
"Uh... forget it, I concede!"
Qin Yu scratched his head.
Back then, defeating Lu Wenrou was for the honor of the whole team.
Now that he had left the force, what was the point of fighting with a girl like her?
"Don't tell me the former 'Reaper' has become such a coward?"
Lu Wenrou raised her eyebrows and provoked.
"Heh, 'Reaper' was my code name in the force. I'm now just an ordinary person, Qin Yu."
Qin Yu said with a slight smile.
"I don't care about that, you must fight me. Otherwise, you'll become my inner demon, and I'll hardly make any progress in martial arts in the future!"
Lu Wenrou stared at Qin Yu, saying firmly.
"Well... okay then!"
Since she put it that way, he might as well have a fight.
Qin Yu and Lu Wenrou left the room and took the elevator to the rooftop.
The moon was bright, stars sparse, and the city lights were fading.
The view from the rooftop was quite beautiful.
Only, from a dark corner came some inappropriate sounds.
It made Lu Wenrou's face turn red as she shouted in a low voice, "Shameless!"
Then, a man stuck his head out from the dark corner, discontentedly grumbling, "In the middle of the night, a lone man and a single woman come up to the rooftop, what else could you be doing?"
"Scram!"
Don't be fooled by the words "gentle" and "tender" in Lu Wenrou's name; her personality was anything but gentle. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Moreover, like Qin Yu, she had killed before, a person with blood on her hands.
With one fierce glare, the other party immediately went silent.
Dragging a woman along, they hurriedly ran down from the rooftop.
"You... haven't changed at all!"
Back then, it was Lu Wenrou who had said that Qin Yu's team was full of lambs, with no one capable of fighting. Qin Yu had stepped forward to teach this "domineering flower" a lesson.
It was just unexpected that she had kept this grievance in her heart all this time, seeking to "avenge" after two whole years.
"Why should I change?"
Lu Wenrou turned around, and said to Qin Yu lightly, "The weak adapt to the world, the strong change the world!"
"Fine, you're impressive!"
Qin Yu said, speechless.
He had heard before that Lu Wenrou had an extraordinary background, her grandparents were armed fighters.
She naturally didn't need to bow to reality like ordinary folks; she could live the life she wanted.
"Hmph, are you mocking me?"
Lu Wenrou glanced at Qin Yu, "Don't hold back, use all your strength. I want to see who's really stronger between us!"
