"Mr. Li, you!"
Xue Mi'er was about to struggle, but it was too late.
More than an hour later, much of the water in the bathtub that had reached her neck was gone, barely covering their knees.
"Sorry, I can be a bit too rough sometimes." Li Yang's lips curved slightly. "I gave you a chance last time, and you still tried to kill me this time. It's only right to teach you a lesson."
"If you're okay with it, shall we do it again?"
"No, don't," Xue Mi'er said fearfully.
Li Yang smiled, "Then after we shower, we'll go rest."
"Okay, okay," Xue Mi'er quickly replied.
After showering, the two lay on the bed. Hearing Li Yang's breathing beside her, Xue Mi'er still wanted to struggle to get up, to grab a knife or something to assassinate him.
But as soon as she moved, she felt intense pain all over her body and immediately lay back down on the bed, soon falling asleep.
The next morning, she slowly opened her eyes and hurried to find something to assassinate Li Yang, only to see that no one else was on the bed.
"Awake?" Li Yang stood at the door and smiled, "Breakfast is ready, come and eat with us."
"When did you get up?" Xue Mi'er was startled.
Li Yang smiled, "About an hour ago."
The two came to the dining table. Xue Mi'er still wanted to find an opportunity but couldn't, so she could only obediently eat breakfast.
"Are you full?" Li Yang asked, looking at her.
"Mr. Li, thank you for your hospitality. I should leave immediately, but last night was just too, too wild. I feel completely drained now and want to rest here a bit longer. Is that okay?" Xue Mi'er asked him.
Li Yang smiled, "Of course. Is there anything you'd like to eat? I can go to the market and buy it when I get back tonight."
"I like anything Mr. Li makes," Xue Mi'er said with a charming smile, leaning against him.
Who would have thought that she was the King of Assassins in Jiangcheng, a top killer?
Li Yang smiled, "Don't be polite with me. Go to the room and rest."
"Yes, Mr. Li." Xue Mi'er nodded and walked towards the bedroom.
After a while, she heard the sound of a car engine outside, knowing that Li Yang was going out.
Immediately, she flipped over and searched the house for things, setting up some simple but very effective traps.
If Li Yang returned tonight and fell into these traps, even an immortal could not save his life!
She didn't know that Li Yang had seen through her identity long ago, he just didn't expose her.
Driving on the road, Li Yang suddenly received a call.
From Zhao Chen.
"Brother Yang, are you free at noon? I'm returning to the capital today and haven't had a good get-together. I want to treat you to lunch today, and we can catch up properly."
"Sure, where? Give me an address, and I'll definitely be there." Li Yang said with a smile.
Zhao Chen said, "Near the highway toll station, there's a place called Magpie Grand Hotel. The food is good, and the environment is relatively quiet, suitable for our brothers to have a meal."
"Alright, we'll meet there then." Li Yang nodded and continued driving towards the antique shop.
As soon as he reached the shop entrance, Er Duo Dong came over and said, "Boss Li, a boss named Lu Fang from Ruili Antiques just came. He said he's your friend and came to visit. What do you think?"
"He's here so soon?" Li Yang smiled, "I know. Go about your business, I'll entertain this guest personally."
"Yes, boss." Er Duo Dong immediately went to deal with other matters.
Although the business of the antique shop was average during the day, Li Hao Antique Shop was still quite large, and there were many things that the shop manager needed to handle.
Li Yang walked a few steps inside and immediately saw Lu Fang. Just as he was about to greet him, he suddenly caught sight of a tall, beautiful woman in a black long dress, with two gold-inlaid jade earrings hanging from her round earlobes, and he was stunned.
"Mr. Li, you're here." Lu Fang was appraising the surroundings of the shop. Seeing him arrive, he immediately stood up with joy.
The beautiful woman in the black dress beside him turned her head suspiciously. After her gaze lingered on Li Yang's face for a second or two, she looked behind him and asked suspiciously, "Miss Bao, where is the Mr. Li you mentioned?"
"Oh, Miss Bao, this is Mr. Li." Lu Fang quickly introduced Li Yang to her.
Miss Bao was clearly surprised, never expecting the owner of such a time-honored antique shop to be so young. "You are Mr. Li Yang, the one with the Double Pupil Divine Eyes?"
"My name is indeed Li Yang, but I'm not very familiar with the nickname 'Double Pupil Divine Eyes'," Li Yang said with a smile.
Miss Bao said, "As long as you are Mr. Li. This is my business card. Ruili Ronghua Antique Group, current Vice Chairman."
"Hello, Miss Bao." Li Yang took the business card and glanced at it. Bao Baoli. Fortunately, her name wasn't Bao Yu, otherwise, it would have tarnished her elegant demeanor as a great beauty.
"May I ask why Miss Bao is visiting me?"
"It's not a matter of seeking favors, but Boss Lu mentioned that your appraisal skills are superb, far surpassing his. I specifically want to ask Mr. Li for a favor."
Bao Baoli looked at him, then took out a check from her handbag. "Here is one million. After the matter is done, whether Mr. Li has helped me or not, another million will be given to you."
"If Mr. Li helps me, you won't get a penny less than five million."
"Oh?"
Li Yang picked up the check, his lips curving slightly, and smiled, "Miss Bao is very generous. But what exactly do you want me to help you with?"
"If I don't understand this, I can only return this check to you."
"Mr. Li, please don't worry, it's definitely not an illegal or criminal matter." Bao Baoli hesitated for a moment before continuing, "I just want Mr. Li to help authenticate an item. Whatever happens afterward will have nothing to do with Mr. Li."
"In that case, has Miss Bao brought the item?" Li Yang smiled and put away the check.
