Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is a Affectionate Spitfire

Chapter 1654: I will complete the mission perfectly.

Chapter 1654: I will complete the mission perfectly.


He was longer a qualified a.s.sa.s.sin as long as he had a weakness in front of this paranoid woman. Old Lady Qu had bought his services for three years using a hefty sum, and the contract between them had not expired yet; he could thus not break their agreement yet.


“Why do I find it hard to believe you? You are the only one I can trust. If I can’t even trust you, who else can I believe?”


She put down the scissors in her hand. She showed no intention of helping him up but just continued watching him kneel in front of her.


“I will help you speak the words that you don’t know then. In this society, it is harder for women to survive than men. If one wants to live with dignity, then they must use more brutal methods. Which of the things I’ve a.s.signed you to complete isn’t vicious or brutal, but what’s the result? How many of them have you completed?”


Her voice was sharp. If her close aide confessed, she might still consider it as a forgivable reason since people had emotions; being forgiven did not equate to being released from punishment, though.


Moreover, her close aide did not seem to have any intention of admitting his mistake.


“Madam, you are right. I am incompetent.”


The close aide caught on to what the old lady meant. His dark gaze focused on the shadow of the spider plant, where another stem was snipped off by the old lady.


“How can I blame you? Your boss told me of your abilities and his trust in you, but you still have to show me some results, or else if you continue being unable to produce any results like this, I might…” She did not finish her words.


Any Envoys of Darkness who were fired by their employer would be reviled and mocked. This close aide’s reputation and fame were not something built overnight. It was just that when it came to Pei Ge, there was always a small mistake made, and these mistakes eventually became the key to his missions failing.


Perhaps it was because Pei Ge had the protection of G.o.d, or perhaps it was because he was ill-equipped to deal when dealing with her.


“I understand, madam. Please give me some more time. I will definitely complete the mission perfectly!”


He knelt and kowtowed hard, producing thudding noises in this greenhouse thriving with life.


“I don’t want to hear your flowery speeches again. I only want results. You can choose all the equipment you need. I can provide for anything as long as it’s needed by you, but I only have one goal for you: Get rid of Pei Ge. You know this. If this mission can’t be completed, you won’t end up any better than Ji Miao. I can’t guarantee it, and no one can—not even your boss.”


Astonishment shone in the aide’s eyes. If his boss was alerted about his incompetence, he might not simply just be kicked out from Envoy of Darkness.


“Yes, madam!”


He gave another resounding kowtow.


Clang!


Pieces of the spider plant vase on the floor burst apart as though it were a blooming flower. However, the aide did not tremble even the slightest bit because of this resounding noise. He remained kneeling with his head to the ground.


“Get up. Are you not going to work by continuing to kneel? Did I hire you to prostrate yourself before me? Then, should I be giving you red packets?”


Old Lady Qu lifted his chin with an index finger. The latter’s eyes were as bright as the night sky, and the scar on his forehead put his entire masculinity on full display.


Her voice was charming, and the haziness in her eyes made the close aide understand what it was he needed to do with just a look.


“Serve me well tonight and I won’t continue blaming you about Ji Miao’s suicide. This is your negligence, so I can actually report you to your boss.”


She gave a seductive smile, making his heart tremble in fear.


As part of the Envoy of Darkness, he could not reject any request his employer made, including what he was about to do with Old Lady Qu.


He carried up the old lady toward a tatami bed in the greenhouse. Behind them, the spider plant’s leaves had all been snipped off by her, leaving behind a bald plant broken on the floor, forgotten.


An erotic scene came to life, ending with the elderly woman satisfied and light chiding the close aide’s low growl.


In the CEO’s office, Ji Ziming and Pei Ge were discussing the acquisition of PYR company when He Yun called to report on Tian Yibo.


“Speak.”


Ji Ziming’s eyes were cold as he held the doc.u.ments.


“Sir, Tian Yibo is a fake ident.i.ty. I found the real Tian Yibo, and he said that his ident.i.ty card had been stolen a few weeks ago. I’m guessing that the person who stole his ident.i.ty card is the one who visited Ji Miao using his card.”


“So?”


From the moment he circled out Tian Yibo’s name, he already had the idea that the ident.i.ty was fake, for there was no such person when he investigated the people around Ji Miao.


Hearing his indifferent tone, his subordinate knew that he was informing the CEO of something the other already knew about. His back was drenched in a cold sweat upon this realization.


“Sir, I—”


“I don’t want to hear any useless excuse. Go and investigate now which car hit Qu Xiujie. If you can’t even do this properly, you can forget about working for the Ji Group.”


“Yes, sir!”


He Yun quickly hung up the phone and drove toward the hospital.


“Is there still nothing useful found?”


Seeing the frigidity on Ji Ziming’s face, Pei Ge knew that it was impossible to find out the truth about Ji Miao’s death in such a short time. Still, she had underestimated his abilities, or more accurately, she had underestimated He Yun’s efficiency upon hearing that Ji Ziming might fire him.


In less than half an hour, the subordinate called back.


“Sir, I was done investigating it and had the perpetrators under custody, but they’re just small-time thugs. According to their description, someone gave them money to drive their car into the one Qu Xiujie was in.”


“So can you find the person who paid them?”


“Yes,” guaranteed He Yun. The few thugs were currently describing that person’s appearance to the sketch artist, as well as the clothes he was wearing that day.


It was something that had puzzled them, for that person had a very weird attire.
