Ji Zi was best at close combat. When she fought with the other party, every move of hers directly attacked the other party's lifeline.
The black-clothed person was certain that Ji Zi's skill was deeper, but he had never seen her moves. He was quite shocked in his heart, and it was somewhat strenuous after a few moves.
"It's just a portrait, why must Young Lady do this?”
The more he retreated, the darker the black-robed man's expression became. His voice was no longer as calm as before, and it was almost chaotic.
Ji Zi did not reply, but her hands moved even faster. After dodging the other party's sword, she shot out her silver needles. The person groaned and hesitated for a moment.
Seizing this opportunity, the dagger in Ji Zi's hand directly stabbed into his heart.
"You…"
His eyes were more or less filled with unwillingness, but there was also more surprise and frustration.
Ji Zi took the portrait from the other party's hand and smiled sarcastically." With that expression of yours, are you saying that I went back on my word or what? Tell me, who asked you to take this portrait? What's the secret behind it?”
Her expression was still indifferent, but the aura around Ji Zi was enough to make the other party unable to breathe. She looked at the other party coldly, and her voice was clear yet cold.
The man's face was twisted in pain, but there was no fear in his eyes and he did not speak.
Ji Zi's expression darkened slightly. When the injured dagger touched his face, he raised it slightly, revealing a resolute face.
"Your master doesn't seem to cherish you. You don't look like an ordinary secret guard, but an assassin. Moreover, you're not a simple assassin.”
That person clearly did not expect Ji Zi to say such words. His expression changed slightly, and pain flashed in his eyes. However, he immediately closed his eyes, as if he was determined, and did not answer Ji Zi's words.
Ji Zi seemed to have predicted that the other party would not speak. She raised her eyebrows slightly and continued,"I know that you have been poisoned by the sea rattan poison, so I can cure it for you as long as you work for me.”
That person's eyes widened and he looked at Ji Zi in a daze, as if he found it somewhat hard to believe.
At this moment, Ji Zi's eyes were shining brightly, and his entire body was exuding confidence. When she said those words just now, her relaxed and indifferent appearance was as if she was chatting with someone about what to eat today. He was a little uncertain about Ji Zi's words.
Ji Zi was not in a hurry. She naturally saw the arrogance in this man's bones, so she believed that he would definitely agree, so she waited patiently for him to speak.
"Can you really cure the poison in my body? Also, how can I be sure that you won't poison me again? I might as well die!”
After a while, the black-clothed man spoke again. His face was somewhat pale, but his voice was strangely lively.
Ji Zi curled his lips into a smile. That smile was sweet, but his voice was cold and filled with a rare warmth." If you agree, you have an extra way out. If I poison you again, you can choose to die then."”
The black-clothed person could not help but frown when he heard these words. However, after thinking about it carefully, Ji Zi's words were very correct.
"Why?" He still spoke with some uncertainty and doubt.
However, this time, Ji Zi's face was filled with displeasure and impatience." There's no benefit in killing you. If I keep you, I can earn money. You're a man, so be straightforward. You motherf * cker, I don't like it!"”
The man in black fixed his eyes on Ji Zi. He thought that she would at least say something about great achievements. However, after listening to her, black lines appeared on his forehead. Suddenly, a warmth flashed across his face. At least he could still earn money. However, this also meant that this woman still loved money.
"Good!"
The man in black's reply caused the curve of Ji Zi's lips to widen. Her eyes shone brightly, as if there were already large amounts of silver swaying in front of her.
If the black-clothed person knew Ji Zi's thoughts at this moment, he didn't know if he would regret his decision at this moment.
After sending the men in black to a stronghold in the capital, Ji Zi returned to Plum Blossom Pavilion in a good mood.
At this moment, Qian Yan appeared to be a little anxious in the room. When she saw Ji Zi return, she hurriedly went up to him.
"Miss, where did you go? You made me worry about you.”
Qian Yan was still wearing a thin inner garment. It was obvious that when she woke up at night, she realized that Ji Zi was not around and was so anxious that she did not have the time to put on her clothes.
The cold wind blew into the room, causing the Thousand Goose robe to sway slightly. Her thin body made one's heart ache. However, she did not seem to be conscious at all, and her face was filled with worry.
Ji Zi's heart warmed. He deliberately smiled and pinched Qianyan's little face." Look at your frown. It really makes my heart ache. Didn't I come back safe and sound? Moreover, your master will be able to increase his silver soon. You should be happy for your master!”
Qian Yan's face darkened, and the corners of her mouth twitched. Seeing the excitement on her master's face when he mentioned silver, she could not help but complain in her heart. Why was the young miss so money-grubber in her heart despite her beautiful appearance?
"Miss, when you go out in the future, call Qian Yan. It's dangerous!”
"Alright, I got it. We'll talk about it when we get out next time!”
"Miss…"
"If you say it again, I'll bring Bai Fei out next time!”She pointed at Qian Yan and looked at her watery eyes. Her heart softened, and she yawned on purpose before walking into the inner room." I'm a little tired. You should rest quickly. There's a good show tomorrow, so you should rest up!"”
Seeing how tired the young miss was, Qian Yan wanted to say something but could not help but swallow her words. When she mentioned rest, she felt cold. Although she had practiced martial arts, compared to Ji Zi, she was really not even a little bit inferior.
All the chaos tonight seemed to be covered by the darkness of the second half of the night. It was so quiet that it was a little scary, like the calm before the storm.
Early the next morning, Ji Zi got up. Although her martial arts were already very good, Yuchi Yan's figure flashed in her mind. Thinking of the passive position that night because the other party's martial arts were more profound than hers, she was a little annoyed. Thus, she got up early and also cultivated her inner energy, so that she would never be in a passive position.
Qian Yan remembered what Ji Zi said last night. During breakfast, she wanted to say something but stopped herself several times. She really wanted to ask Ji Zi what kind of good show was going to happen. However, she swallowed her words the few times she opened her mouth.
Actually, Ji Zi had naturally noticed Qian Yan's behavior, but she deliberately did not say it because she had to let Qian Yan handle this matter immediately.
"Go and see what Ji Yan is doing at the moment.”
Ji Zi finished the bun in his hand and wiped his mouth with the silk handkerchief. Then, he raised his head and narrowed his eyes at Qian Yan.
"Yes, sir!"
Qian Yan's eyes flashed with doubt. However, she was absolutely loyal and trusted Ji Zi. She did not ask any more questions and went out directly.
After Ji Zi saw Qian Yan leave, Bai Fei quickly returned with a stack of accounts in his hands.
"How's the casino's income?"
