My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 347: Chapter 0346: Hundred-Transformations (Part 2)_1
 

About ten minutes later, the car joined the national highway.

At the expressway entrance, another car had already stopped there, belonging to Ye Xiong and his three companions.

As soon as the car came to a halt, Ye Xiong hurried over and, noticing the absence of two team members, he asked, “Where are the other two?”

Wu Wang recounted the events that had transpired.

“Among Ghost’s seven disciples, Cold-blooded was killed by my men, and Ghost Shadow by you; both of them possessed remarkable strength. This so-called “Sanyao” is definitely not weak. Apart from you, Phoenix, and Minister Jiang, probably no one else in the Dragon Group could match him,” Ye Xiong said.

“It’s a mystery where Ghost manages to find so many skilled fighters, each one absurdly strong. If it weren’t for them tenaciously grappling with Sanyao, we’d probably be dead,” Gecko said with a heavy heart.

“Being a special agent comes with a readiness to lay down one’s life for the country; they died with pride,” Ye Xiong comforted.

“What should we do next?” Wu Wang asked.

We’ve already alerted the enemy here in T City. Ghost has likely slipped away. I’ve learned from Murong Feng that Ghost may make a move during the Medical Conference. Now we need to head to the Murong Family in Y City to lie in wait. Ghost has been setting up the Medical Conference for several months and expended a lot of manpower and resources; he won’t give up that easily,” Ye Xiong explained.

“Then let’s go.”

“We’ll probably face a significant ambush on the road.”

Wu Wang walked to the front of the car and opened the trunk, which was filled to the brim with firearms.

“Pick one. We’ve been prepared for a tough battle,” he said.

Seeing all the firearms, Ye Xiong felt a surge of familiarity well up inside him.

Back when he was the leader of Reaper Squad, he had always favored guns, and before every operation, he would pester Long Tianya to request more and better firearms. Tianya would eventually yield to his persistence and submit numerous applications for guns.

At assembly times, Ye Xiong loved to drive up to his teammates, open up the rear compartment of the car, and with a show of bravado, say, “Brothers, take your pick.”

Now all five brothers were dead, and the person he trusted most had become his greatest enemy at this moment.

Reflecting on this, he could not help but sigh deeply.

Inside the car, Duanmu Linglong’s gaze lingered on Ye Xiong the whole time.

She had overheard the entire conversation and could tell from it that he was the commander of this mission.

Despite his young age, he had become the Dragon Group’s commander, which shocked her immensely.

“Duanmu Linglong, are you alright?” Ye Xiong’s attention finally turned to her.

For some reason, Duanmu Linglong’s mind suddenly flashed back to that time in the teahouse when he approached her.

He had told her that he liked her, which was why he became a male nurse.

Although she knew he said so only for the sake of the mission, Duanmu Linglong still felt an uncomfortable twinge in her heart.

“I’m fine. Thank you for saving me.”

“It was my brother who saved you, not me.”

Ye Xiong’s gaze dropped to the half-buttoned collar of her shirt revealing half of her white jade-like skin, prompting him to point and remind her.

Duanmu Linglong looked down and, seeing the unbuttoned collar, her face tinted red with embarrassment, and she quickly fastened it.

Seeing the delicate hue on her face, Ye Xiong was suddenly reminded of the women in his life, especially Yang Xinyi.

It had been a long time since he had seen them, and he truly missed them deeply.

He hoped that this mission would be successful in dealing with Long Tianya, so that he could then live a peaceful life, accompanying his wife and lover, embracing a life of romantic leisure.

“You should leave this city for now, don’t stay at the Duanmu’s—wait until everything here is resolved before coming back,” Ye Xiong said, and then handed over a bank card, “There’s hundreds of thousands in here, enough for you to spend for a while.”

“I’m not going,” Duanmu Linglong declared. “I want to go with you to Y City.”

“The journey is extremely dangerous…”

“I still want to go; I want to persuade my father to mend his ways and reform,” she insisted.

“Alright then, but when things go south later, I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to protect you.”

“I’m not as weak as you think; I can take care of myself.”

Ye Xiong looked at her deeply for a moment before turning to check on the equipment and the team beside him.

“Angel, you take a car with Murong Feng and Duanmu Linglong—drive in the middle; I’ll take a car with An Le and lead the way; Wu Wang, your car will be responsible for the rear. Everyone, let’s head out!”

Once An Le got into the car, she started jabbering while driving, “Snagging a beauty during a mission, got to hand it to ya!”

“Dream on, deadhead. She’s Duanmu Kuang’s daughter; I only know her because of the mission. There’s nothing between us,” Ye Xiong cursed.

“I’m a woman, and I understand the looks women give—just now, that wistful look she gave you screamed interest. I’m really good at reading people.” An Le teased as she looked at his face, “Ever think about taking her down? She’s got a good vibe and she’s a doctor; must be quite the catch to play with.”

“I’ve thought about taking you down,” Ye Xiong shot back.

“Well then, whenever you’re ready, I’m at your service,” An Le replied, casting a suggestive gaze his way.

“You nympho,” Ye Xiong retorted.

Provoked by her teasing, if it weren’t for the mission, Ye Xiong would have been tempted to pull the car over to the side of the highway and have a legendary emergency-lane quickie with her.

An Le threw him a scornful look, “I’m still untouched, sweetheart. Giving myself to you without even a fuss, you wouldn’t know what to do with a real man.”

“It’s just a layer of skin. Go to the hospital, get it patched up, and that’s it for a thousand or so,” he said.

Honestly, he didn’t really believe a free spirit like An Le was still untouched.

Three cars set off toward Y City.

At that moment, in Y City.

At the Murong Family estate, outside Murong Feng’s study.

Murong Ruyin took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in her heart, and knocked on the door.

“Come in,” came Murong Feng’s voice from inside.

If it weren’t for the phone call from her father earlier, reiterating things that only the two of them knew since she was little, Murong Ruyin would never believe the person inside was an imposter.

Not only did he look like her father, but his voice was also identical.

Murong Ruyin pushed open the door, glanced at Murong Feng, and said, “Dad, the Silver Needles have arrived.”

“Just put them on the table,” he replied.

Placing the Silver Needles on the table, Murong Ruyin continued, “Dad, there’s something I’ve always wanted to ask you about, but you’ve been too busy. Do you have time now?”

Hundreds-Transformations’ gaze settled on Murong Ruyin, his eyes flashing with intense desire.

Hundreds-Transformations was Ghost’s fourth disciple, and among the disciples, he was the most skilled in the art of disguise.

He was not only an expert at disguise but also well-versed in various communication methods. Having carried out his missions while impersonating all kinds of characters for so long, he had never failed.

But this woman in front of him always left him unsettled.
