"Hey, girl, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Qin Hao chuckled helplessly. Just having returned to the country, he was immediately accosted by a beautiful woman, which left him feeling quite distressed.
Could it be that one can be too handsome? That, like a firefly in the night sky, no matter how low-key you try to be, you're still so charming, so dazzling? Ah, it's really a headache.
"Someone's plotting against me, could you please accompany me home?"
Zhao Mengke pleaded in Qin Hao's ear.
She had just stepped off the plane and already felt like she was being watched. Instantly, she panicked and wanted to find someone to go home with her. That way, even if something happened along the way, there would be someone to look out for her.
Otherwise, how could a weak woman handle any unexpected situations on her own?
She had just asked several people for help, but people's hearts were cold now, and no one cared about her safety. Helplessly, she resorted to this measure.
"Aren't there just three assassins tailing you? Do you really need to be this scared?"
Qin Hao shook his head in resignation and sighed. Something so trivial, and you're clinging to me? My time is very precious, you know?
As soon as he'd stepped off the plane, Qin Hao had noticed those three assassins, but since it was none of his business, he didn't bother to intervene. He never expected this girl to drag him into the mess anyway; that's some nerve.
"What? As... assassins?" Zhao Mengke's face turned pale at these words. She originally thought it was just some thieves after her money, but it turned out to be assassins? This was directly life-threatening!
Zhao Mengke clung tightly to Qin Hao, absolutely unwilling to let go now.
Her eyes were brimming with tears, but they exuded determination and sincerity. From her gaze, Qin Hao deeply felt the resolve of this girl!
Her gentle eyes seemed to say—I've made up my mind to cling onto you, even if it means dragging you down with me!
Qin Hao nearly spat blood!
"Alright, how about this—I take a few minutes to deal with those three assassins. How does that sound?" Qin Hao said with resignation.
"Yeah right, brag some more." Zhao Mengke muttered, "What if you ditch me and run? I went through a lot just to cling onto someone as unlucky as you, do you think it's easy? Please respect my efforts!"
Pfft!
Qin Hao felt like spitting blood. This girl had turned shamelessness into such a noble and righteous cause, it was truly impressive!
"Fine, I'll accompany you home. But I've been running around, and I'm a bit thirsty—buy me a cup of tea as compensation," Qin Hao said.
"Okay, okay." Zhao Mengke nodded repeatedly and bought a steaming cup of oolong tea nearby for Qin Hao, handing it to him with an adorable smile, "Hehe, trading a cup of tea for a bodyguard—what a deal, not a loss at all."
Qin Hao gave Zhao Mengke a sidelong glance and said, "The tea's still too hot, hold it for me."
"Oh." Zhao Mengke obediently nodded, then followed behind Qin Hao as the two headed out of the airport.
But shortly afterward, Qin Hao furrowed his brows. People were sparse around, so he slightly turned his head and said, "Come out now, you've been buzzing around like flies."
After a moment of silence, three ordinary-looking men in black stepped out, all staring at Qin Hao with astonishment, "When did you notice us?"
"From the beginning." Qin Hao said with a nonchalant expression, "Now you have two choices: leave, or die."
"Heh." The three assassins sneered with disdain, their eyes on Qin Hao as if looking at an idiot, "Kid, do you know who we are? How dare you act so arrogantly? Do you know you're courting death?"
"Just a few assassins."
Qin Hao chuckled and shook his head, pointing at the teacup in Zhao Mengke's hand, "Since you won't leave, just watch this cup of tea. When it cools, it'll mark the end of your lives."
Upon hearing this, the three assassins' faces darkened, "Kid, don't you think you're overestimating yourself? Well, since you know we're assassins, you must know something about the assassin realm. You should've heard of us, 'Mei Lin's Three Assassins,' right?"
"Oh." Qin Hao nodded, "Indeed, three salted fish. Never heard of them."
"You!"
Mei Lin's Three Assassins almost spat blood. This kid has no regard for them at all!
"I... I've heard of you."
At this, Zhao Mengke weakly nudged Qin Hao and said, "I've heard my father mention that name. They're supposed to be very strong! All three are ranked in the top 200 assassins worldwide! Oh no, what do we do? We're doomed!"
Zhao Mengke panicked!
World-class assassins! How strong must they be? Even one would be astonishing, and now there are three in front of her!
Oh no, oh no, we're done for, we're gonna die...
Zhao Mengke looked terrified, feeling like the sky was about to fall!
"Kid, meddling comes at a price. To die by the hands of Mei Lin's Three Assassins can be considered a gift from the heavens." Mei Lin's Three Assassins sneered and prepared to act.
"No rush." Qin Hao waved his hand and said.
"What? Scared? It's too late now!"
Mei Lin's Three Assassins' eyes turned vicious!
Qin Hao shook his head, "This tea is still too hot. If you strike now, when you all fall, the tea would still scald your mouth."
After Qin Hao spoke, he leaned in to take a whiff of the tea's fragrance, nodding, "An elegant aroma, with a hint of natural creaminess. Good tea, good tea..."
This guy was still savoring tea!
Mei Lin's Three Assassins felt the greatest insult of their lives! After exchanging a glance, the three acted in unison!
Suddenly, three flying knives, swift as a flash, shot towards Qin Hao!
The knives were fast, ruthless, and precise. They used the same assassination technique, both in speed and lethality, extremely terrifying!
"I don't believe you can survive this! It's the killing blow we've honed, you're not even worthy of hearing the name!"
A flicker of confidence gleamed in the eyes of Mei Lin's Three Assassins.
Qin Hao, however, deftly dodged, evading all three knives as he remarked casually, "Isn't it just 'Mid-air Killing Move'?"
Mid-air Killing Move, a top-tier assassination technique emphasizing speed and explosive power, extremely formidable, considered a pinnacle assassination method.
"What!"
Mei Lin's Three Assassins widened their eyes, not expecting Qin Hao to dodge three flying knives, quick as bullets. How... how is this possible?
"Actually, your move is quite impressive, I truly admire it!" At this moment, Qin Hao smiled faintly, "Unfortunately, this Mid-air Killing Move was invented by me!"
"You... you invented it? Are you... are you really the Night..."
Hearing Qin Hao's words, Mei Lin's Three Assassins were instantly terrified. The creator of Mid-air Killing Move was none other than the Night Emperor!
Even the Six Great Emperors of the assassin realm would not dare challenge him at his peak!
"You've said too much."
Qin Hao frowned slightly. Before they could utter the word "Emperor," Qin Hao's fingers twitched, and before anyone could see his move, Mei Lin's Three Assassins shuddered in fear, their eyes dimming slowly.
The three of them stood like statues, unmoving.
"Let's go."
Without sparing them another glance, Qin Hao turned and continued towards the airport exit. Meanwhile, he took the tea from Zhao Mengke, took a sip, and nodded, "Hmm, fragrant and smooth, with a sweet aftertaste. The temperature is slightly warm—good tea, good tea..."
Zhao Mengke was stunned by Qin Hao!
In the past, there was "Wen Jiu Zhang Hua Xiong"—killing Hua Xiong with wine in hand!
Today, there is exterminating assassins with tea in hand!
Zhao Mengke hadn't expected to randomly latch onto someone as incredible as Qin Hao!
Suddenly, Zhao Mengke began giggling foolishly, feeling like she'd won a lottery scratch-off. Not a loss at all, not at all, hehe!
Soon, as they exited the airport, Qin Hao spotted a tall, graceful beauty standing beside a red Ferrari sports car on the roadside. His expression grew complex as he started walking towards the beauty.
