Anthony looked up and subconsciously glanced at Shen Wuxiao. As expected, his expression changed. He lowered his eyes and ate his food coldly. There was no sign of the joy from before.
Anthony stood up, his usual cold and handsome face carrying a hint of a smile." Becca, long time no see."
An oriental beauty with long hair and a bouquet of flowers was walking toward them. She had thick, dark hair like seaweed, delicate and fair skin like an Asian woman, and delicate facial features. Although her height of 168cm was not particularly tall among Westerners, she still looked very well-proportioned and beautiful.
"I thought I got the wrong person. I really didn't expect you to come here to eat.”The woman called Becca smiled gently. She stood beside Anthony, completely ignoring Shen Wuxiao.
Anthony responded while sizing up Shen Wuxiao. The woman who was standing and the woman who was sitting used the same method of ignoring him.
"Yes, Fog likes the food here, so I accompanied her.”Anthony said, gesturing to Shen Wuxiao, who was still sitting on the chair and eating.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Have you been busy recently? Come to my house when you have time. I'll make you delicious food.”Becca was obviously not interested in Shen Wuxiao at all. She brushed her hair behind her ear and said gently to Anthony.
"Oh, okay. I'll go if I'm free.”Anthony also felt awkward and did not say anything else. He shifted his gaze to the flowers and changed the topic." What beautiful flowers…"
"Yes, I prepared it for Rushan. You know, today is his death anniversary.”Becca seemed to be waiting for this question. She continued before Anthony could finish. She looked at the flowers with a gentle and loving gaze, as if they were her lover.
Anthony instantly felt Shen Wuxiao's murderous intent. He hurriedly hugged Becca and wanted to take her away, but Becca did not appreciate his kindness at all. She continued as if she was doing it on purpose,""Anthony, I will never forget this day no matter how many years pass. Rushan's death was not worth it, don't you think so? I'd rather he get hit by a car than…"
"Enough, Becca! Since today is the anniversary of Rushan's death, hurry up and see him.”Anthony interrupted Becca's words almost rudely. The people around them turned to look at them and whispered.
At this moment, the waiter who had no eyesight at all served them a well-cooked wormgrass stew. Shen Wuxiao opened the lid of the cup. Manlis blew on it and scooped it up with a spoon. He took a sip carefully and stood up with a smile.
" Fog…" Anthony's heart skipped a beat, and his entire body became alert. He wanted to pull Becca behind him, but Becca was obviously unwilling to do so. She was here to provoke him. It had been six years, and this was the first chance she had. How could she let it go?
Shen Wuxiao grabbed the boiling soup with one hand as if the scalding heat did not exist. She slowly poured the soup on the flowers and said cruelly with a smile,"Unfortunately, he died for me, widow!”
Becca exploded in an instant. Her beautiful and exquisite face turned ferocious and terrifying in an instant. She roared and wanted to tear Shen Wuxiao's face apart, but she was firmly dragged out by Anthony. Everyone in the restaurant was petrified. Only Shen Wuxiao sat down quietly and continued to drink another bowl of soup leisurely. At his feet were the flowers that Becca had thrown on the ground.
Shen Wuxiao's cold gaze fell on the white petals. He lifted his foot and mercilessly stepped on them, turning them into mud under his feet.
When she came out of the restaurant, Shen Wuxiao looked up at the clear sky. The strong cold air in the restaurant contrasted with the scorching temperature outside. The heat rising from the ground burned Shen Wuxiao's skin, making her shiver.
She didn't want to go back to the base, but she didn't know where to go. She walked aimlessly along the street. She didn't know how long she had walked for, but when she came back to her senses, the sun had already set.
"Ha, you actually lost your soul. Shen Wuxiao, go to hell!”She said self-deprecatingly, turned around, hailed a taxi, and went back to the apartment.
Shen Wuxiao was so surprised that she couldn't speak when she reached the entrance of her apartment. She saw Liu Lanzhi sitting at the entrance of her apartment with one leg straight and one leg bent. He looked like a stray cat strolling around leisurely.
"You…what are you doing here?" in the morning mist I ask.
Liu Lanzhi stood up and stared at Shen Wuxiao with his beautiful phoenix eyes. His face was still expressionless."I'm waiting for you to come home."
Shen Wuxiao found it hard to describe her current feelings. It was as if the whole world had let her down a moment ago, and the next moment, a person suddenly appeared. His eyes did not look anywhere, only staring at her tightly, filled with her. Being needed and desired like this made Shen Wuxiao so weak that he wanted to cry. She rushed into Liu Lanzhi's arms and hugged his thin waist tightly.
"..." Liu Lanzhi did not know why she was like this. He was a little surprised and at a loss. He raised his hands high and hesitated whether he should hug her back.
Afterwards, the two of them crossed each other and breathed quietly. Shen Wuxiao's eyes were a little unfocused. She stared lazily at the high ceiling, as if trying to see something in that empty place. Her body was pressed against Liu Lanzhi's, and her skin was hot and moist. Sweat kept dripping down from his body onto her skin, condensing into droplets on the bedsheets.
" I hate July…" Shen Wuxiao said lightly.
"Hmm?"
"I hate New York in July. It was scorching hot, burning, and suffocating. It was as if there was a huge stone pressing down on his chest, torturing him to death.”Shen Wuxiao blinked his eyes. The sweat on his forehead slid to the corners of his eyes and then into the pillow.
Liu Lanzhi lifted his body and moved to the side. He reached out to wipe the sweat off her forehead.
"Shall we go on vacation? Let's go somewhere more comfortable and cooler." he asked. Shun's discipline was very strict. All personnel were not allowed to leave their posts without permission or disappear for no reason. If they wanted to go on vacation, they had to tell them where they were going.
However, if they knew where they were going, would they still be on vacation? They lived under constant surveillance.
Shen Wuxiao tilted his head to look at him. He was still languid. A languid smile appeared on his little girl's tender face. He was actually so charming and flirtatious. He was like a woman who had sailed thousands of sails.
"Where are we going?" Shen Wuxiao's voice dragged out, sounding like he was acting coquettishly.
Liu Lanzhi could not help but feel happy. He rubbed his pretty face against the pillow and a faint smile appeared on his face that rarely showed any expression."Tell me."
"Go to the North Pole and watch the polar bears roll around?"
Liu Lanzhi frowned. Was she serious? That was not cool, but icy cold!
"You don't like it? Then go to the South Pole to watch penguins dive?"
"Are you sure?"
"Then we can watch the aurora at night. Did you know? People said that the aurora was the light of heaven. It was the people of the divine realm who welcomed the dead souls to heaven.”Shen Wuxiao smiled like a flower and said," I don't know what heaven is like.”
Liu Lanzhi was still smiling faintly at first, but as he listened, he could hear the dejection in his voice, and his face darkened. He knew that every agent killer had a different story, big or small. People like them had more joy and sorrow than ordinary people, and they had to endure it. It was not that they could not vent. They were not born cold-blooded, but they were covered in thick cocoons after being riddled with holes. They were not so easy to be sad or happy.
He didn't want to care about what happened to Shen Wuxiao in the past. He didn't want to think about how important Ru Shan was to her. It didn't matter if she was willing to hide it deep in her heart, or if she was willing to think about it for the rest of her life. He just needed to keep her by his side.
A lifetime? Liu Lanzhi was shocked by his thoughtless thought. He had actually started to consider his entire life?! As he was thinking about this, Shen Wuxiao had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep when he came back to his senses. He probably could not wait for his reply and had fallen asleep when he was tired. He raised his hand to stroke her hair.
She really looked like a little girl. She had a small face, a small body, and two lumps on her chest. She was really inconspicuous. Perhaps any man with more developed chest muscles would be stronger than her. However, this seemingly stunted body brought him great joy. It made him more excited and happy than successfully completing the mission assigned by the organization or successfully challenging the impossible height. What exactly was she made of? Why was she so mesmerizing to him? He was so carried away that he even delayed doing what he should do time and time again.
Liu Lanzhi reached out and hugged Shen Wuxiao tightly in front of his chest. He was like a lonely wild cat that had finally found its beloved toy and refused to let go until death!
"Wu Xiao, people like us can't enter heaven. It's better for us to stay in the human world and be demons.”
When she woke up again, she was woken up by the soft sound of the door opening. Shen Wuxiao suddenly opened his eyes and felt a wave of anger in his heart.
Liu Lanzhi woke up as well. His relaxed muscles tensed up instantly as he reached for the gun by the bed. Shen Wuxiao raised his head and shook his head at Liu Lanzhi. He patted Liu Lanzhi's shoulder to signal him to relax.
She got up, rolled up the white bedsheet, opened the door, and went out. She walked to the living room and saw a man in a suit standing in the open kitchen. He was facing her with his tall and broad back. Shen Wuxiao leaned against the wall and said coldly,""What are you doing here?"
The man turned around, his eyes as cold as ever. He sized Shen Wuxiao up and did not answer her question. Instead, he said,"I'll cook steak for you tonight, okay?"
"Hmph, did I indulge you too much, or did you become too arrogant? Who do you think you are? Anthony Marlowe, get out of my house right now!”
