Before the night came, Guo Liang desperately pushed the gears in his brain. He couldn't wait to propose a better way to stop Xie Zhiyun's damn beauty trap.
In fact, he knew very well. The only and the best to get close to Ivan. Morgan's method was to let him take a fancy to Xie Zhiyun. It was undeniable that the congeniality and confusion between men and women were the best weapons to make the enemy lose their guard and vigilance. Therefore, Xie Zhiyun's proposal of a honey trap was really a good plan.
Usually, the trickiest thing in a honey trap was to find bait. It was not difficult to find a beauty, but it was difficult to get a beauty to be the bait willingly. Now that the bait had volunteered to be eaten, what was there to hesitate about as a fisherman? Fine, she would at least suffer some losses. She was willing to sacrifice herself for the mission, and he, as her partner, should be more than happy to do so. Why was she so crazy as if she wanted to cut off his flesh?
It was not that Guo Liang did not understand such a simple principle, but he just felt uncomfortable thinking about it. As for what was wrong? Even he couldn't say it himself.
He was uneasy and went to the hotel's courtyard to wait for Xie Zhiyun.
Suddenly, a waiter outside the door opened the door. A cold wind mixed with a few pieces of snow rolled in. Behind the pure white snowflakes stood a purple figure. It was elegant and slightly mysterious. It decorated the people like a poem or a fantasy. Time seemed to have stopped. All the guests in the courtyard and the staff at the counter stopped what they were doing and looked at her with their mouths agape.
Guo Liang stood up involuntarily.
She saw a chiffon evening gown clung to Xie Zhiyun's body, as if it was integrated with her and became a part of her body, completely revealing her graceful figure. With her graceful steps, a faint fragrance filled the air. The beaded pearl necklace around her neck accentuated her naturally fair skin.
Xie Zhiyun stood elegantly in front of Guo Liang, gently shaking off the snowflakes on her long hair shawl, revealing her white teeth and a bright smile.
"It's alright." She turned around lightly on the spot, completely unaware that she had become the focus of everyone's attention.
Guo Liang recovered from his shock.
"You…you're a scorpion?" He could not believe his eyes.
"My name is Xie Zhiyun. Do you need me to introduce myself again?”With the number of girlfriends he had, even if he really couldn't remember what she looked like, it probably wouldn't be anything strange!
"No…no need." Guo Liang took a deep breath to calm the blood in his body." What I mean is…By the way, why didn't you disguise yourself? Why did you use your true face?”He questioned her unhappily.
He had thought she would only show up at Ivan in disguise. In front of Morgan, he could at least tolerate her standing beside Ivan Morgan. Or perhaps, he was secretly praying to Ivan. Morgan would never take a fancy to her.
He didn't expect her to use her true body instead of her clone. Moreover, she was so damn mesmerizing that it ignited the nameless sea of fire in his heart.
Xie Zhiyun's pretty face turned from red to white.
"Why can't I use my original appearance?”Did she really look that bad?
"It was a honey trap, Ivan. Morgan wasn't an idiot. With such frequent and intimate contact, if I were to disguise myself, he would easily see through me.”she said with conviction.
Her words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, making Guo Liang even angrier.
"You also know that you will have frequent and intimate contact with him. In that case, you shouldn't have used your original appearance.”If only she had a brain and knew how to protect herself.
"Guo Liang! Are you being reasonable?" He was simply opposing for the sake of opposing. Even if her honey trap would fail tonight, he should not have given her no chance at all.
"I'm being unreasonable?" If being reasonable meant that he had to watch her throw herself into another man's arms, then he would rather not be reasonable. "Have you ever thought that if you use your true face and your deeds are exposed, Ivan…What if Morgan doesn't let you off?" Ungrateful woman.
"Oh-I see, you just don't believe in my abilities, you're afraid I won't attract Ivan. Morgan, it will affect your reputation.”Xie Zhiyun said angrily. "Don't worry! I won't drag you down with me. If tonight's plan fails, I'll be responsible for all the consequences. I will ask for punishment from the headquarters. I will not implicate you in any way.”
"You…What are you talking about?”What kind of ability did this woman have? Why did she always mess him up with just a few moves? "Forget it, it's up to you!" Time was tight, and it was too late for regrets. The current situation was already an arrow on the bow.
Although it seemed that Xie Zhiyun had won, she didn't feel happy at all in the face of Guo Liang's solemn face.
She glanced at the hotel clock." It's getting late. Can we go in now?"”This was not the time to be angry. For the sake of her face, tonight's attack could only succeed and not fail.
Guo Liang had no choice but to bend his arm to let her hold him, and then calmly walked into the banquet hall.
Breathing the fragrance coming from Xie Zhiyun, he actually had a sense of powerlessness as he walked to the execution ground.
If he had known that the waiter at the entrance of the venue was so lecherous, Guo Liang would not have bothered to get an invitation card. He even suspected that as long as Xie Zhiyun handed him something, even if it was a piece of tissue, he might not notice it.
Looking at his pair of eyes staring at Xie Zhiyun, he almost drooled on the spot. Guo Liang really wanted to dig out his eyes and kick them like a ball.
"Sir!" Guo Liang handed over the invitation card.
The waiter was fully focused on Xie Zhiyun and didn't respond to his actions.
"Sir!" Guo Liang put the invitation card in front of the waiter's eyes, isolating him from looking at Xie Zhiyun.
" Oh..." The waiter came back to his senses and politely took the invitation card, looking for the name on it.
" So it's Mr. Xiuzheng. Welcome, welcome. This beautiful lady is…"
" I am..." Xie Zhiyun wanted to introduce herself.
"Let's go!" Guo Liang interrupted her domineeringly and gave the waiter a sanitary look.
As soon as the two of them stepped into the venue, there was a commotion as Guo Liang had expected.
Wherever he and Xie Zhiyun went, there was a short breath and an uproar.
"You're simply rude and impolite.”Xie Zhiyun smiled and gestured to everyone while she lowered her voice to scold him.
"It's better than you being so bored that you hit on the waiter.”Guo Liang patrolled the venue without leaving a trace.
"I have much better taste than you.”It wasn't just the waiter at the door. Everyone's gazes made her feel pampered, except for the stinking man beside her who had a long face. However, she inexplicably cared about his evaluation.
"What's wrong? He just said a few words of courtesy, and you took it seriously? You women are too easily satisfied.”Guo Liang teased.
" You..." Xie Zhiyun stopped in anger and wanted to take back her hand.
"Yay!" Guo Liang nimbly reached out his other hand to hold her hand. He turned around and faced her face to face."Don't move. The target is watching us from your 3 o'clock position. You don't want to ruin the plan that you've painstakingly thought of, do you?”
Xie Zhiyun pretended to glance at Ivan inadvertently. Morgan glanced in his direction and maintained his smile. He skillfully withdrew his hand from his palm and gritted his teeth as he whispered,""Remember this."
Guo Liang was amused by her smile and revealed two rows of neat teeth. The waltz music was playing in the field. His right hand slid down her back and his left hand held Xie Zhiyun's soft hand.
"What are you doing?" The temperature in his palm quickly spread on her back, and Xie Zhiyun became nervous.
"Nothing. I just wanted to test if you passed the dance class.”
After being provoked by him, she immediately replied,"Not only did I pass, I'm afraid you'll be scared to death if I tell you. This lady passed with the highest score.”
"Oh?" Guo Liang smiled evilly." Then what are we waiting for? Show them what you got!"”After saying that, he began to dance with her.
The two of them seemed to have practiced it thousands of times. Their tacit understanding was impeccable in every forward, backward, and rotation.
Guo Liang and Xie Zhiyun cooperated seamlessly!
Guo Liang stared into her eyes without blinking, his fingers transmitting the appropriate amount of passion and strength. It was only at this moment that he could take off his mask and realize the deepest desire in his heart-to take her into his arms and make her his everything.
At this moment, Guo Liang didn't have any mission in his mind, much less Yifan. Morgan's existence was only Xie Zhiyun's flawless figure, her graceful figure, her exquisite facial features, and her soul-stirring eyes.
Her skirt drew a perfect curve with every turn. Guo Liang's focused eyes seemed to be the beauty of his dreams.
Xie Zhiyun looked at him-a man who was undoubtedly the most upright and charming man among the men present tonight. She could clearly feel that because she was Guo Liang's dance partner, she had become the object of envy and jealousy of all the women in the venue.
She gave him her steps without holding back, letting her soul wander in an illusory dream for a while. In every rhythm and posture, they felt a high degree of blending of their bodies and hearts.
Even when the music ended and the applause rang out, their eyes were still glued together reluctantly, unable to bear to part.
"Perfect, perfect! Their cooperation was too good! Your performance just now was simply brilliant and peerless. It was really an eye-opener!”Ivan. Morgan's praise pulled them back to reality.
"You flatter me, Mr. Morgan. Thank you for inviting me to the banquet.”Guo Liang said humbly.
"No, actually, I should thank Mr. Xiuzheng for adding a lot of beauty to the banquet.”Ivan? Morgan looked at Xie Zhiyun in amazement. "This graceful and radiant lady must be your wife.”
Ivan. The disappointment in Morgan's tone made Guo Liang feel both happy and worried. He looked at Xie Zhiyun, whose cheeks were flushed.
"No, I'm his sister." Xie Zhiyun's confused mood quickly recovered from the dream-like dance just now. "My name is Hideki Harumi. Nice to meet you.”
"Really?" Ivan. Morgan asked Guo Liang with his eyes wide open, unable to believe his good luck.
"Yes…she's my sister." Guo Liang reluctantly agreed with her.
"I haven't seen any big scenes, so I specially came with my brother to take a look. I hope it won't be too presumptuous.”Her shyness deepened the sweetness on her face.
"Welcome, welcome! I wonder if I have the honor to ask Miss Xiuzheng to dance?”Ivan. Morgan impatiently extended his hand to invite her.
Xie Zhiyun nodded, pulled up the corner of her skirt, and generously placed her hand on Yifan. When Morgan's palm passed by Guo Liang, he proudly raised his chin and looked at him provocatively, as if saying,
Let's see if you still dare to look down on me in the future.
Ivan. Morgan's joyful expression overflowed from the corner of his mouth. He lowered his voice and whispered into Guo Liang's ear,
"Thank you for bringing such a beautiful dream to the men present tonight.”Then he excitedly walked into the dance floor with Xie Zhiyun.
He looked at Ivan. Morgan possessively hugged Xie Zhiyun, and she showed a bright smile to please him. Guo Liang's fist couldn't help but clench.
He turned his head away unhappily.
He had a bad feeling that it might be Ivan tonight. The day Morgan's dream came true was the beginning of Guo Liang's nightmare.
" It's finally over. I'm exhausted." When she returned to the room, Xie Zhiyun lay on the bed.
Guo Liang trailed behind her and threw down his suit jacket. He sat on the sofa with a solemn expression.
"Are you tired too?" She thought about how she had been sticking to Ivan the whole night except for the first dance. Morgan was in the arms of another man, and his tone was filled with gunpowder.
"How can I not be tired? That Ivan. Morgan, wasn't it enough that you didn't stop dancing all night? You even introduced me to other people, causing me to not even have time to drink water and catch my breath.”She sat up and took off her high heels, rubbing her ankle.
"Look! My legs are about to break."
Guo Liang looked at her red ankle and felt a surge of heartache. He got up and walked closer to the bed." I'll help you take a look."”As he spoke, he held her feet in an experienced manner and began to massage them gently through the silky stockings.
As soon as she touched the temperature of his palm, Xie Zhiyun was shocked. She was anxious to take back her foot, but he held it tightly, so she couldn't break free. She had to lie on the bed and enjoy his rare thoughtfulness and gentleness.
His fingers seemed to have magic, causing her to tremble slightly and driving away the fatigue in her body.
She propped her head with her hand and turned to look at him." It's so comfortable! Do you often do this to women?”Just guessing how many women's feet he had held in his hands made her heart ache.
Guo Liang didn't comment and continued to rub his feet.
His indifference made Xie Zhiyun think of the Japanese girls who were around him one night.
"What's wrong? Casanova is too embarrassed to admit it." Her voice was filled with jealousy." Or have you been saying sweet words all night and your mouth is sore?”She had sacrificed her body for the mission, but he was actually chatting and laughing with another woman at the side. He simply did not put her in his eyes.
After waiting for a while, Guo Liang still did not respond.
Forget it! If he didn't want to say it, then so be it. Anyway, he wasn't anyone to her. Who cared how many women he had in the past and how many women's hearts he had captured tonight?
"In your opinion, is this big fish hooked?”She tactfully changed the topic.
"You were the one who was with him the whole night. If you don't know, how would I know?”
Only then did he reply sourly.
Xie Zhiyun's black and white crystal clear eyes flashed. She was instantly immersed in the first round of the attack and didn't notice Guo Liang's haze.
" Hmm…" She pondered seriously." It should be!" Do you know, Ivan? Morgan invited me to dinner tomorrow night.”
"You agree?" A layer of frost appeared on Guo Liang's serious face. His eyebrows were so tight that they could pinch a mosquito to death.
"Of course! If he didn't grasp such a good opportunity, when would he wait?”Although she liked to dance, she did not want to be surrounded by a group of strange men. She did not want to endure their mediocre dancing skills and lecherous eyes, and she even wanted to treat them to ice cream for free. He didn't want to create an opportunity for that playboy Guo Liang to get close to a woman.
Guo Liang suddenly increased the strength of his five fingers.
"Hiss-it hurts." Xie Zhiyun couldn't help but scream and pulled back her foot. "What's wrong with you?" She rubbed her aching ankle.
"You actually agreed to him without discussing it with me.”To his partner, this was simply a great contempt. "You've only met him once and you've already agreed to go on a date with him alone. Aren't you throwing yourself into his arms too quickly and willingly?”He mocked angrily.
Xie Zhiyun stood up unhappily." Are you mistaken? He actually thought it was too fast! I don't plan to waste my time with him. Besides, it's just a meal together. It's not a big deal. Do I have to write an application form in advance?”She pouted in grievance.
She said she didn't want to stay with Ivan. As Morgan dragged on, Guo Liang finally calmed down.
"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. I thought…I was worried that haste makes waste.”They were on a mission, and she had no choice but to get close to him for the mission. Why couldn't he tolerate her throwing herself into the arms of another man? She was just a partner and they had only known each other for two days. Why was he so serious and abnormal?
"This is simply ridiculous!" Xie Zhiyun protested. "If you're worried, you can come with me tomorrow night.”It would save him the trouble of not trusting her ability and might even break her leg next time.
Of course, Guo Liang wanted to say yes, but as a responsible spy, his rationality could not allow it.
"Forget it, he didn't invite me. Is your leg okay?" He turned his attention back to her ankle. The spot that had turned white because he had overexerted himself had already regained its color.
"It's alright now." Xie Zhiyun opened her toes and moved, then rotated her ankle joint.
"Why do we have to go through so much trouble? Why don't we combine the pendant with the necklace to read the password? I'll try to lure him away, and you'll take the opportunity to sneak into his room and enter the computer to steal the information. Wouldn't it be solved in a few moves? Why go through so much trouble!" She said it easily.
"The problem is, his computer isn't in his room.”Guo Liang refuted her naivety.
"How did you know?" She stared at him." Could it be that you've already entered his room?”
She thought that she was already impatient enough, but she did not expect that there was someone who could not wait any longer than her.
Guo Liang raised his eyebrows and grinned, indicating that she had guessed correctly.
"If the computer isn't in Ivan…Morgan's room? Where could it be?”She tilted her head and thought hard. "Could it be in his office?”
"You're smart!" Guo Liang looked at her with admiration. "According to my observations, Ivan. Morgan's area of activity in Japan was very simple. Other than the hotel he stayed in, there was only the Kurobe Association.”
"That's simple. We'll just barge into the Kurobu Association.”She was mentally prepared for this.
Guo Liang grunted and asked in a low voice,"
"Have you heard of the Millennium Building?”
Xie Zhiyun nodded." Of course, I've heard of it. It has the reputation of being a miracle in the construction world. The structural integrity is known as the pyramid of this century. As a spy, who doesn't know about such a famous building?”Although she had not personally experienced it, she had long heard of the magic and invulnerability of this building.
Guo Liang continued,
"This building was designed by the 'Four Guardians' of the architectural world. It looks no different from other buildings on the outside, but the interior is like a maze. It used the world's top construction talents and materials, especially its safety. It seemed that there was no human security, but it was actually fully controlled by a computer. It had absolute monitoring that was impervious to water and ants.”
"Impressive. But I don't see what this has to do with Ivan. What does Morgan's computer have to do with it?" She did not react for a moment.
"Not only are they related, but they are also very closely related. The Kurobu Association is located in the Millennium Building.”When he first discovered this fact, Guo Liang was no less surprised than her.
The " Black Society " was actually located in the " Millennium Building " with an astronomical rent. This was really unexpected for Xie Zhiyun. What kind of criminal organization was willing to spend such a huge amount of money? What kind of shocking secret operation did they have that required foolproof perimeter protection? Who knew how many terrifying crimes and sinister intentions were hidden in this!
"Rumor has it that to pass through its security system, in addition to the key card, the computer will also match the appearance of the card holder.”Xie Zhiyun finally understood the important factors that the headquarters assigned her to this mission.
"That's right. I think this is also one of the reasons why you are the best candidate for this mission.”Guo Liang seemed to have seen through her thoughts.
Xie Zhiyun looked at Guo Liang. This was the first time she saw such a serious expression on his face.
He didn't expect this playboy to be so serious. No wonder so many women couldn't escape his clutches.
She paused for a while and shook her head to get her thoughts back." But there are two of us. We need at least a man and a woman to cover up. The headquarters only gave them to Ivan. What about Morgan and the other woman?”This was contradictory to the condition that they had to combine their necklaces to know the password.
"Have you forgotten that the information also records Ivan. Morgan had a female assistant in Japan.”He reminded her.
Xie Zhiyun suddenly realized and then fell into confusion.
"There are at least 50 women entering and leaving the Millennium Building every day. How do we know which one is Ivan? Morgan's assistant?"
"I have to ask you."
"Ask me?" How could she possibly know?
Guo Liang said with ulterior motives,
"If Ivan…If Morgan really likes you, it shouldn't be difficult to get him to hand over the key card, let alone find out who his secretary is, right?”
" Ah…" She thought that she only needed to play tricks with him. It turned out that she had such a heavy task. How intimate would they have to be with him?
The thought of pretending to be with Ivan. Morgan had feelings for her, and she felt tired from the bottom of her heart.
Guo Liang caught the hesitation in her eyes." How is it? He knew that things weren't that simple. Er-do you want to change your mind before it's too late? We can change to another plan.”He suggested.
"Of course…no." She had finally taken the first step to success, so how could he look down on her? "Since we already know that this mission is full of difficulties and that there are many hidden mysteries, we can't cancel the honey trap no matter what. Moreover, they had already succeeded halfway today. There was no reason to change the plan.”
"Oh." In other words, nothing had changed. She would still have to sacrifice herself for the honey trap tomorrow, and he would still have to face the inexplicable depression in his heart.
Was it really so difficult for him to use a honey trap? Why did she always feel that it made him suffer?
Although she had sworn to make him look at her in a different light, she couldn't bear to see his gloomy face. If she could make him feel better with another plan-
" Little Zhuge, I..." He swallowed his words. Strange! Why should she be responsible for his emotions? What did it have to do with her if he was being sarcastic?
"What is it?" he asked weakly.
"I'm fine." She hardened her heart and changed her words.
"Since you're fine, you should rest early. I'm going back to my room.”There was a deep sense of loss in his voice.
"Okay, good night."
Picking up his coat from the sofa, Guo Liang said coolly,""Good night!"
