Without being able to see the man’s ID and information, generally, only players with the assassin profession can go “incognito” after accepting a contract. If he completes the task or the time limit expires, others can then see his identity.
Feng Guang didn’t care whether he was an assassin; she shouted, “Hey, I saw that squirrel first! It’s mine!”
“But it’s in my hands now,” he replied, his voice low and raspy, reflecting the gloomy aura he exuded.
“You took it from me! I knocked that squirrel unconscious!”
“Evidence.”
“You…” There were no other witnesses here, and her only tool for knocking out the squirrel was a pebble. Where could she find evidence? “Don’t try to twist the truth. Think about it—if I hadn’t knocked the squirrel out first, would it have been so easy for you to catch it?”
“There’s a saying: ‘Waiting by the stump for a rabbit.’”
“Are you saying it would bump into a tree like a rabbit and knock itself out?”
“A reasonable explanation.”
Feng Guang puffed up her cheeks, “You’re deliberately trying to go against me!”
“You’ve seen through the truth so quickly. It seems Miss Xia isn’t as foolish as the rumors say.”
Feng Guang’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively took a step back. “What did you say about Miss Xia?”
He smirked slightly and said in a mocking tone, “Xia Fengguang, the young lady of the Xia Group.”
“Who are you? How do you know my real identity?” Feng Guang wasn’t flustered; she looked at the man with cold, piercing eyes, staying on guard.
The man shrugged it off, speaking in an ethereal tone, “If I want, I can know everything about everyone in the world.”
“Then tell me, who was my nanny when I was ten? How old is she now, and where does she live?”
“Lin Xiu, forty-seven, lives in the Xia family villa.” He answered quickly. “She’s still your nanny.”
He was completely right, and Feng Guang was taken aback. “Wow! You’ve investigated this thoroughly. Explain yourself—are you secretly in love with me?”
She looked at him with disdain, as if he were a creepy stalker. The man’s brow twitched beneath his hood. “Even if all the women in the world died, I wouldn’t fall in love with you.”
“Do you like men, then?” Feng Guang covered her mouth and stepped back, her eyes revealing even more disgust.
The man remained silent for a moment. “Xia Fengguang, I came to warn you…”
“Are you trying to change the subject?” She interrupted him.
“I’m warning you not to…”
“You are changing the subject, aren’t you?”
“…not to…”
“If you’re changing the subject, then I must be right in my guess,” she ruthlessly interrupted him again. “Either you have a crush on me, or you like men. Tsk tsk, trying to get my attention this way is just too low.”
“Shut up!” The man couldn’t hold back any longer and raised his voice in frustration.
Feng Guang blinked in surprise, genuinely looking startled.
He took a deep breath and regained his calm demeanor as if the person about to roar just moments ago was not him at all. “Xia Fengguang, I warn you—don’t provoke people you shouldn’t mess with. Otherwise, I’ll make your situation even worse.”
He spoke quickly this time.
Feng Guang didn’t reply, her dark eyes lost in thought.
The man let out a satisfied, mocking laugh, ready to turn and leave. Suddenly, he heard her voice behind him, clear and melodious: “Am I in a terrible situation right now?”
He paused in his tracks.
Her tone was genuinely confused; she truly didn’t understand what was so bad about her current situation.
