The security of the Millennium Building was indeed well-deserved!
After passing through the sophisticated computer verification at the gate, what followed was how to find the Kurobe Association in the maze-like building.
According to the information they had obtained, Ivan. Morgan's office should be on the 13th floor. So they chose an elevator that went straight to the thirteenth floor.
Unexpectedly, the elevator did not show any signs of inspection and allowed them to enter. Everything went smoothly as it rose.
Ten seconds later, the elevator stopped on the 13th floor without any vibration, showing the quality of the design and materials. Just as they were waiting for the elevator door to open, they looked at each other and rejoiced that their mission was about to be completed. Suddenly, a small square of digital keys on the elevator wall opened, and then the voice of a machine came out.
" Please enter the password?"
They looked at each other for two seconds.
"Little Zhuge!" Xie Zhiyun shouted in a low voice.
Guo Liang signaled her not to panic with his hand. He took out the decoding device from his briefcase as fast as he could.
He familiarly removed the panel on the digital keys and used the auxiliary tools he brought to focus on carefully trying to unlock the password.
The passage of time was like beads of sweat on their foreheads. It had been three minutes since they should have entered the password. Before the person could enter the correct password, the computer's urging voice suddenly sounded again.
"Please enter the correct password, or the elevator will automatically stop supplying oxygen in three minutes.”
After listening to it, Xie Zhiyun took a deep breath. Guo Liang held his breath and continued to operate the instrument. The temperature in the elevator soared. The cold air from the air conditioner could not regulate the temperature of the two of them.
Xie Zhiyun stared at the second hand on her watch. Thirty seconds passed quickly. Finally, Guo Liang stopped what he was doing and raised his head to ask her with his eyes.
Xie Zhiyun knew that he had unlocked the password and nodded firmly to show that she believed in his ability, which meant that she was willing to advance and retreat with him.
Guo Liang carefully entered the password, then stepped back and waited with Xie Zhiyun for the elevator door to open.
10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds…The elevator door did not open for a long time, and the computer did not respond at all.
"Scorpion, I'm sorry!" Guo Liang said dejectedly. I failed."
Man's plan was not as good as God's plan! He, who had always been high-spirited, could not even protect the person he loved one day. He really did not expect it.
If the password entered was invalid, the elevator would stop supplying oxygen in a minute. It would not be long before the enemies arrived. Thinking that they were about to be buried here, Xie Zhiyun's heart was stunned, but when she thought about dying with Guo Liang, her heart was calm and relieved.
"No, you should say that we failed!”Her voice was fearless and her smile was bright and sweet.
In an instant, an electric current quickly flowed from Guo Liang's head to the soles of his feet. At this point in his life, he had never been so indifferent to life and death as he was now. He stared at her excitedly.
"How much time do we have?" His mood changed drastically.
Xie Zhiyun glanced at her watch." About one and a half minutes! What do you want?" This was the man she loved. He still looked so handsome even at the brink of death!
"One and a half minutes! Enough, enough for me to ask you a question, enough for me to die without regrets.”Although they couldn't be born on the same day, they could die on the same day. "Scorpion, will you marry me?”
She had thought that dying with him was already very sentimental. She did not expect that she would be able to get his promise and make an appointment with him in the next life. At this moment, Xie Zhiyun actually felt that she was happy. Of course, she was willing. She was a hundred times willing, a thousand times willing.
"I'm willing!" She answered without hesitation, full of joy.
"Now?" At this moment, the Grim Reaper was probably waiting outside the elevator.
"Now!" She was willing to give her remaining life to him, to have him, even if it was only for a second, a moment, to her, it would be forever.
In an instant, a feeling of gratitude filled their hearts. No one wanted to break this wonderful moment.
His eyes gradually darkened as he focused on her. There was something deep, sincere, and desperate in his eyes, but Xie Zhiyun couldn't see through it. He kissed her hungrily, then left countless kisses on her face and throat…
After a long time, he buried his face in her neck and breathed heavily.
She had never felt this way before. Her entire body was weak and she could barely breathe. Her body was still trembling from the passion just now.
Guo Liang hugged her tightly and stared at her with his burning eyes. He suddenly raised his hand and said,"
"I, Guo Liang, am willing to marry Xie Zhiyun as my wife and take care of her forever. No matter what the circumstances are, I will never leave her! Don't give up! If you break your oath, I'm willing to be struck by lightning!”He looked at her again.
Marriage was a big event in life. Xie Zhiyun never thought that she would marry herself in such a situation. They should have died young! She was lucky enough to be able to marry the person she loved before she died.
Without hesitation, she repeated the oath.
Then, Guo Liang took off the password necklace around his neck and put it on her. Xie Zhiyun also took off hers and put it on for him.
"Can I kiss the bride now?" His eyes were filled with desire as he pretended to kiss her.
Xie Zhiyun closed her eyes and was waiting for the wedding kiss to fall when the elevator door suddenly opened.
"There's a problem with the computer. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. The password you entered is correct. You can pass now.”
Xie Zhiyun excitedly took Guo Liang's arm." Little Zhuge, we won't die.”
Although he was glad that he had escaped death, Guo Liang still felt a little disappointed that the most important step of their wedding was interrupted. He had not expected her natural reaction to stimulate his senses and stop him from falling in love with her.
Now, as long as he completed the mission and regained his freedom, he could not only continue what he had just been interrupted, but he could also carry out an even more lingering plot. That's right! Completing the mission was more important.
He pulled her out of the elevator.
This step was the boundary between life and death for them. What about love?
Perhaps only time could answer it!
Through the test in the elevator, although there were still a few difficulties, Guo Liang and Xie Zhiyun could easily pass the test. Finally, they did not fail to get the confidential information that their superiors wanted.
After leaving the Millennium Building and returning to the hotel, perhaps it was because they had just experienced a dangerous situation, or perhaps it was because they had accidentally promised each other a life and death situation, everything in the world was romantic.
Along the way, they didn't talk. Other than removing their makeup and changing their clothes, Guo Liang never let go of her hand.
The night was dark, and they had just escaped from the gates of hell. Logically speaking, they should be exhausted, but the two of them were surprisingly awake and energetic.
No one cared about the successful completion of the mission because the most wonderful and meaningful thing in the world had befallen them. The shock surpassed everything else and filled the night sky of Tokyo, occupying two throbbing hearts.
Unconsciously, she walked to Xie Zhiyun's door. Guo Liang, who was full of blood, turned around and looked at her affectionately.
"I don't feel sleepy at all. How about you?”He looked at her lovable face intently, as if she was the only person he cared about in this world.
The light shining in his eyes made Xie Zhiyun blush.
"I don't want to sleep either." She replied in a voice laced with honey.
After receiving her encouragement, Guo Liang said affectionately,
"I have a lot to tell you. Shall we go down and have a cup of coffee? I'll go back to my room to sort out the documents. We'll meet at the Atrium Cafe in an hour.”
Xie Zhiyun stared at him and nodded without objection.
Guo Liang opened the door for her and reluctantly let go of her hand.
"See you later!"
The sound of running water accompanied by Guo Liang's whistle filled the entire bathroom. He washed off the makeup on his face and washed off the soap bubbles on his body. He turned off the tap and wrapped a towel around himself.
As the sound of water faded, the phone rang loudly.
It must be a scorpion!
Guo Liang immediately raised his microphone and said,"
"Hey!" At this moment, no matter what he said or did, there was only one meaning, and that was happiness.
"Little Zhuge, where did you go?”Lan Jieshi complained after making overseas calls all night.
“Jazz?”Shouldn't he be in America taking care of Liu Shaowei? Why would she call him in the middle of the night? Could it be…" Did something happen to the second lieutenant?”It had been some time since they last contacted each other. Could it be that his injuries had worsened…He did not dare to think about it.
"No." Lan Jieshi said weakly.
Sigh! He was almost scared to death.
Guo Liang calmed his heartbeat." He's fine. Why did you call me in the middle of the night to scare me?”It was a waste of his precious time.
He almost forgot that the reason why he could know Xie Zhiyun and have his current happiness was all thanks to Lan Jieshi. He was their matchmaker. If there was a chance, he must thank him. Thinking of this, his tone was much friendlier than before."How are you?" You have to care about others as well! Since he was doing well, of course, he had to know if others were doing well too.
"Is the second lieutenant's injury better?"
It would be strange if it was good! Anyone who had not slept well or eaten well for more than half a month and was fully armed and on standby at any time would find it difficult to recover. Lan Jieshi thought unhappily.
"Little Zhuge, can you come to America after the mission is completed?”He just wanted to lie in bed and sleep for three days and three nights. He had almost forgotten what it felt like to sleep in bed.
Sighing after saying a few words was not in line with Lan Jieshi's cheerful and optimistic style.
"What exactly happened?" Even though he looked sloppy, his abilities were actually on par with Liu Shaowei and himself. He believed that if it had been the person who had come for this mission today, with his amazing motor skills, the terrifying incident in the elevator would not have happened. Therefore, his tone was so heavy. He must have encountered great difficulties.
Guo Liang's suppressed uneasiness slowly rose again.
"It's a second lieutenant." Lan Jieshi sighed again.
"Didn't you say that he's fine?" What exactly happened in the United States?
"I won't die for a while, but the situation is more troublesome than death.”His voice was filled with powerlessness.
"What do you mean?" His words made Guo Liang's good mood sink into the sea.
"Ever since he woke up from his coma, he was always alone in a daze. Sometimes he smiled and sometimes he frowned, as if he was desperately trying to get better, but he was so quiet that it made people worry. " He doesn't talk more than three sentences a day, and when he opens his eyes, he says he wants to leave the hospital. The first thing he says is to look for some angel in white. No matter how hard he tries to persuade him, he can't do anything to him…" What was worse was that the Iron Faced Twins didn't give up on chasing him because of his injuries. He was constantly surrounded by the Iron Faced Twins 'assassinations and Liu Shaowei's strange behavior. He was physically and mentally exhausted from both internal and external troubles. It was already a great honor for him to be alive until now.
He didn't say a word and insisted on looking for the angel in white? What was wrong with him?
"In your opinion, is it possible that he injured his brain when he was injured?”With Liu Shaowei's straightforward personality, Guo Liang couldn't help but suspect this.
"I've already thought about this. I've also asked the doctor to thoroughly and strictly examine him several times. The report says that he's even more normal than a normal person.”Instead, it caused him a headache! "I didn't want to bother you, but this time, the iron-faced twins seemed to have sworn to get rid of Second Lieutenant, and Second Lieutenant insisted on not changing hospitals. I've also considered asking for help from the headquarters, but according to my judgment, the second lieutenant has a heart disease, and a heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. You're his best brother, so perhaps you can open up the knot in his heart.”
Guo Liang fell into a short period of deep thought.
He was duty-bound to Liu Shaowei. If it was in the past, he would have rushed to his side as quickly as possible without thinking. However, things were different now. He was no longer alone.
He had Xie Zhiyun. It could be said that they were newlyweds. How could he, the bride-to-be, abandon his bride at this juncture and run to the United States alone, not to mention that they had yet to consummate their marriage?
He might as well tell her everything and let her go to America with him.
No! Lan Jieshi had analyzed the situation to be so dangerous that he couldn't bear to let her take the risk. The Iron Faced Twins weren't scary. What was scary was the huge assassin group behind them.
He could not let her know that based on her resolute behavior in the elevator, if she knew the inside story, she would never agree to let him go alone. No matter what, he had to keep Liu Shaowei's matter a secret from her.
Fortunately, they had not registered yet, so they were not legally married. At that time, even if he was unlucky and had an accident, he would not drag her into being a widow and waste her tears.
"I'll leave tomorrow." After a tug-of-war in his heart, Guo Liang said without hesitation.
Waiting was torture for lovers, not to mention that Xie Zhiyun was a fresh lover. Who said that a couple in love would drink sweet water? She had just taken the course not long ago, but she already felt that it was a mixture of sweet and sour.
She had been sitting alone in the corner of the Atrium Cafe for ten minutes. Although she didn't care who was waiting for whom, her eyelids kept twitching when she didn't see Guo Liang. She kept feeling that something bad was about to happen, making her uneasy.
The mission was 99% complete. The remaining 1% was to leave the letter to Ivan when they left tomorrow. Morgan, everything was considered successful.
This time, not only did she successfully complete the task assigned to her by her superiors, but she also found her own happiness. It could be said to be a double blessing. The only flaw was that she had lied to Ivan from the beginning. Morgan's relationship.
Regardless of whether he was truly unpardonable, regardless of whether he deserved to die, she should not be the one to punish him, let alone use such a despicable method to deceive his feelings.
However, good and evil were irreconcilable, not to mention that the person her heart belonged to was never him.
Fortunately, it hadn't been too long. He probably didn't have too many feelings for her. Perhaps he would forget her soon and look forward to him finding a true lover as soon as possible.
She heaved a sigh of relief, tidied her appearance, tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, and took a sip of cappuccino to calm her emotions.
It turned out that the ancient saying that a day apart was like three autumns and a day was like a year was not correct. What day? Let alone twenty-four hours, even a minute would make her feel as if she was sitting on pins and needles. Her body and mind felt as if they were being fried.
What was Guo Liang doing at the moment? Shower? Or organizing information? Did he miss her? Did he miss her as much as she missed him? Definitely not! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been willing to be separated from her for so long.
It was over, it was over. Suspicion, anxiety, moodiness…She was truly in love. It had only been a short while since they last met, but she had already started to feel unappetizing and worried.
If he came later, what should she call him?
Hubby? They weren't officially husband and wife yet, so calling her that made it seem as if she couldn't wait to promote herself. He would definitely look down on her.
When in Rome, do as the ancients do. Anada? Sticky, disgusting, and unoriginal.
Guo Liang? It was too pretentious and did not fit her personal style.
That's called-bright? Stop fooling around!
Hmm, or should she call him Little Zhuge? Wouldn't that be too distant?
Forget it! Don't think about it, let nature take its course! What's the rush? She could listen to how he addressed her first and then decide.
He was here! Her heart began to beat wildly again.
One step, two steps, no! Xie Zhiyun blinked and looked again. Three steps, four steps. The closer Guo Liang's footsteps were to her, the more she felt that something was wrong.
When he sat down opposite her, his dark blue face and tense aura finally proved that her hunch was right.
Her eyelids twitched a few times!
The waiter asked him politely and handed him the menu.
"No need. I'll leave immediately.”Guo Liang returned the menu to the waiter.
Xie Zhiyun suddenly felt a cold wind blowing, and the goosebumps on her body stood up.
"I'm sorry, I was sorting out the information to bring back to the headquarters. I hope I didn't keep you waiting!”Her face looked so pale. How was he supposed to open his mouth?
Was he playing a game? Why did he treat her like he was receiving a guest? Why did he sound so different from before? Was the man in front of her really the Little Zhuge she knew? Xie Zhiyun looked at him in disbelief.
Without waiting for her to speak, Guo Liang continued in a cold tone,"The mission has been successfully completed tonight. I'm very happy to be able to cooperate with you this time.”He looked back at her expressionlessly. However, her heart was in turmoil.
"Is this what you want to say to me?”Xie Zhiyun stared at him firmly, trying to see through his soul. After a long time, she finally found her voice.
In less than an hour, everything changed. Was she dreaming? Or was the scene in the elevator at the Millennium Building a dream?
Guo Liang clenched his fists tightly, trying his best to suppress the urge to confess to her and ask her to wait for him to come back.
"Of course not." He chuckled, but the bitterness behind his smile was even worse than the black coffee. "I wanted to tell you that I have something to do at the last minute and have to take the early flight. I'm afraid you'll have to bring all the information back to the headquarters alone.”
He turned his head away, unable to bear to see her expression.
"Is that all?" Xie Zhiyun vaguely saw the blue bird of happiness that was originally parked next to her fly away. The brilliance in her eyes was gradually replaced by a murderous aura.
"That's all."
Was her heart broken? It must be. Otherwise, why didn't she throw a tantrum or question him?
It was better to be heartbroken than to die. Hating him was better than being in danger.
His answer was simple and certain, wiping out her last bit of hope.
"No problem." She stood up and prepared to leave without saying goodbye.
"Scorpion!" Guo Liang finally couldn't help but call out to her.
"Is there anything else?" Thousands of possible hopes were ignited in her chest. Perhaps he would suddenly laugh and tell her that this was just a prank game, purely to make her laugh…Looking at her slender and trembling back, Guo Liang's rationality finally prevailed over his feelings.
"A password necklace!" He took off the necklace around his neck and placed it on the table. She had put it on for him after he swore to the heavens and earth in the elevator when he was at the brink of death.
Xie Zhiyun suddenly turned around and stared at him in disbelief, as if he came from outer space and used an incomprehensible alien language.
According to the rules, the password necklace was something handed over by the higher-ups. It was public property and could not be taken by private individuals. Therefore, after the mission was completed, it had to be returned to the headquarters along with the information.
The two platinum half-heart necklaces with broken diamonds were nothing special.
However, at the critical moment, these two necklaces were the tokens of their mutual engagement. They were the only witness of this hasty wedding. They had given the necklaces a new meaning. However, as Guo Liang easily handed them over, their existence was as glaring as mockery.
For a moment, the entire world seemed to have stopped. There was no heartbeat, no thoughts, only the hatred in Xie Zhiyun's eyes.
She reached out and grabbed the necklace.
" Scorpion, I..." Her appearance made him even more worried. He could not help but stand up and hold her hand. A complicated emotion flashed across his eyes.
But what could he do? Tell a joke to ease the awkward atmosphere? Say a few beautiful and elegant words to comfort her? Or tell her everything and let her take the risk with him? He couldn't bear to!
Not willing to let him continue to struggle, Xie Zhiyun opened her mouth indifferently,
"Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid.”The corners of her lips twitched coldly as she snorted through her nostrils.
"You're not worth it!" She flung his hand away and left brazenly.
She hated him!
This was the only thing Guo Liang could feel apart from his heart bleeding!#
