She turned to Song Yinzhang and said, “Although Ming Jing took your first place in the last exam, Ming Jing is also my good friend, and I care about both of you. Please reconcile for my sake and shake hands.”

Song Yinzhang laughed and said, ‘Ziyan, do you really think I’m that narrow-minded? Just because someone gets better exam results than me, I should hold a grudge against them? You not only underestimate me, but also insult Ms. Zhu.”

Ming Jing glanced at Song Yinzhang, smiled, and said, “For the next exam, I’m happy to have you challenge my first place.”

The two seemed to have a mutual appreciation for each other.

While they chatted and ate, Song Yinzhang quietly asked, “Why didn’t you tell me in advance that you were coming to Jiangzhou? You only told me when you were about to leave.”

“You’re so busy, I didn’t want to disturb your studies.”

“Did you sneak out again? Go back and wait for Mr. Bai to break your legs.”

“Aren’t we good brothers anymore? Why do you keep rubbing salt on my wounds?”

“You should behave yourself when you return this time, don’t make Mr. Bai angry again. By the way, Fei Tai’s birthday is coming soon, can you help me give him a birthday present?”

“You give it to him yourself. That bastard blacklisted me, and sooner or later, I’ll settle this score with him.”

“Why do you two act like kids, always playing with blacklist tricks? Alright, don’t bother yourself, I’ll just send it myself.”

Across the table, Charles Gao put some grilled beef into Ming Jing’s plate, “This is Kobe beef, specially air-shipped from Japan this morning. Give it a try.”

Ming Jing took a sip of water, “Thanks.”

She left her chopsticks untouched on the table.

At that moment, there was a “bang” from the neighboring room, and even the table in their own room shook from the impact.

Hurried footsteps approached the door, then disappeared at the entrance to the next room.

Charles Gao furrowed his brows and got up to leave, “I’ll go take a look.”

Bai Ziyan said, “Some drunk must be making trouble.”

Charles Gao walked out of the room and carefully closed the door. As he turned around, he saw a middle-aged man walking towards him in a hurry.

“Dad?”

Gao Xu was surprised to see him, and Charles explained, “I’m having dinner with friends.”

He pointed to the next room, “What happened there?”

Gao Xu’s face was serious, “Go back. Pretend you didn’t see anything and leave with your friends as soon as possible.”

“Dad….

Gao Xu said sternly, “Go.”

Charles caught a glimpse of the neighboring room, where a bloodied hand suddenly reached out through the closed door, straining to reach outward, the bones on the back of the hand bulging, looking horrifying and bloody.

The hand slowly retreated into the room, carrying a sense of despair and unwillingness, until the door closed, cutting off everything.

Gao Xu’s face was somber, he whispered, “Leave with your friends quickly, curiosity killed the cat, you understand?”

Charles sensed the urgency and guessed, “Qinglong Association?”

Gao Xu waved his hand.

Charles returned to the private room and said to everyone, “Have you finished eating? I’ll take you somewhere fun.”

Bai Ziyan gave him a look, “What’s going on next door?”

Charles coughed, dragging Bai Ziyan away and said, “My Mr. Bai, you’re leaving tomorrow, so let me show you a good time tonight, okay?”

As they exited the room, Ming Jing quietly glanced at the room next door.

Gao Xu was surprised that Charles was also dining with a girl and couldn’t help but take a second look. He told his assistant, “Escort young master and his friends out of here. “After leaving the restaurant, Ming Jing said, “It’s too late, I should go back.”

Charles Gao thought the girl should go back early so as not to scare Ming Jing about tonight’s events, “Do you want me to give you a lift?” “No need, my driver is picking me up.”

In the meantime, a white BMW stopped in front of Ming Jing.

Ming Jing waved to the others, opened the car door, and got in.

Bai Ziyan put his arm around Song Yinzhang’s shoulder: “Xiao Zhang, let’s move to the KTV and continue to have fun.”

Jiang Jinchen said calmly, “I’m a bit tired. I want to go back and rest. You guys have fun.”

With that, he hailed a taxi at the side of the road and left.

Charles Gao looked worriedly at the restaurant behind him, then at Bai Ziyan, sighed helplessly, and followed them resignedly.

The car turned a corner and slowly stopped by the side of the road.

“Ran Tengxiao has been investigating the events of twelve years ago. Twelve years ago, Ran Bowen died at the hands of Yu Jiang, who then disappeared. All these years, the Qinglong Association has been searching for Yu Jiang.

Recently, Ran Tengxiao seems to have found some clues.”

Ming Jing was stunned, “Is he going to avenge Ran Bowen?”

“How is that possible? Of all people, he would like Ran Bowen to die the most. But to inherit the Qinglong Association, he needs the support of the four elders. The condition of the four elders is that he must exchange Yu Jiang’s head. This move will also help him establish his prestige.”

“Yu Jiang, Yu Jiang.” Ming Jing laughed. A glimmer of light passed through the depths of her eyes, and when she looked again, it seemed like an illusion, only a boundless, deep, cold abyss could be seen.

“Yu Jiang is already dead.” The girl’s plain voice echoed like a thunderburst. Zheng Qing was surprised, “How did you know?”

“Strangely enough, I investigated Yu Jiang. Her identity and background were perfectly fabricated, at least Ran Bowen didn’t suspect it. At that time, the higher-ups wanted to clean up the Qinglong Association. I suspect Yu Jiang was working with me.”

“Twelve years ago, Yu Jiang was Jiang Yu…” Zheng Qing widened her eyes in disbelief.

She jumped to the back seat, grabbed Ming Jing’s shoulders, and eagerly asked, “Yu Jiang was Jiang Yu? That makes sense now. Her last mission at the time was to infiltrate the Qinglong Association, incite internal strife, and take the opportunity to kill Ran Bowen.”

“Is that how it was?” Zheng Qing was somewhat agitated. Ming Jing closed her eyes, her face showing neither sorrow nor joy.

“Do you know how she died?”

In Ming Jing’s mind flashed the scene of that day’s snowfield. Nothing was more beautiful than the red plum blossoms blooming in the snow.

“By the time I rushed back from abroad, she had already died. I couldn’t believe it. I stormed in and saw her body, riddled with bullet holes. She died so miserably, her face was unrecognizable.”

Zheng Qing covered her eyes, her shoulders trembling involuntarily.

Suddenly she looked up, “Was it Night Hawk who killed her? We knew too many secrets. Once we left the organization, we would pose a threat to it. So without hesitation, Night Hawk killed her… but Night Hawk clearly liked her so much… ”

“Shut up.” Ming Jing suddenly shouted.

Zheng Qing stared blankly at her, the first time she had seen Ming Jing so emotional.

The girl’s dark eyes seemed like whirlpools, and she said emotionlessly, “He’s not worthy.”

Zheng Qing wiped her tears, “That’s right, he’s not worthy. I must kill him personally to avenge A Yu.”

Ming Jing twirled the Buddhist beads on her fingertips, saying faintly, “They were just using the hunt for Yu Jiang as an excuse. The real goal was to obtain the Qinglong Seal she held.”

Zheng Qing unconsciously asked, “Qinglong Seal?”

Ming Jing’s mouth twitched, revealing a hint of cold mockery.

“Ran Bowen, a man of great ambition and ability, trained a group of assassins to expand his power. Each of them was a one-in-a-million talent, scattered in various industries, only obeying the Qinglong Seal. Ran Bowen was very cautious, dividing the Qinglong Seal in two, just like the ancient tiger talisman.

Only when the two parts are combined can these assassins be ordered.”

Zheng Qing’s eyes widened, “It seems my intelligence work is still not good enough.”

She then clicked her tongue, “Ran Bowen was courting death. How could he live and sleep in peace while raising so many killers? It’s no wonder he was killed..”
