Jiang Junlin and Qin Wan exchanged a glance. Qin Wan smiled and said, “I miscalculated. 1 should have placed my pieces beside you. You’re the easiest to conquer.”

Ji Chi sneered, “Didn’t Jiang Junlin place his pieces on my bed? Isn’t that enough?”

Jiang Junlin remained silent.

Qin Wan also fell silent.

It was quite frustrating, and they couldn’t argue!

“Today is New Year’s Eve. Shall we have hotpot?” Jiang Junlin asked.

Qin Wan glanced at the refrigerator, which contained only some vegetables and meat, far from the ingredients needed for hotpot. Jiang Junlin suggested, “There’s a supermarket next door. You can go buy some groceries.”

“I want to have instant noodles!” Qin Wan declined. “Cook some instant noodles, add an egg, and it’s like celebrating the New Year.”

“I want hotpot!” Ji Chi said with a cold face. He had originally planned to have hotpot with Jiang Junlin on New Year’s Eve, but who would have thought there would be an extra third wheel encouraging them to have instant noodles!

“If you want hotpot, go buy it yourself!” Qin Wan sat down and cleaned her gun barrel.

Jiang Junlin rubbed his temples, Ji Chi stood up abruptly, grabbed his coat, and said, “Fine, I’ll go!”

“I want beef…” Qin Wan casually placed her order.

“Fuck off!” Ji Chi retorted.

Ji Chi was so annoyed that he wanted to start a fight with Qin Wan.

Jiang Junlin had to hold his wrist to stop him, which only further infuriated Ji Chi. Jiang Junlin didn’t want Ji Chi to go outside and cause trouble. Ji Chi’s striking appearance drew too much attention. In the end Jiang Junlin said, “Qin Wan, go get the ingredients.”

Qin Wan, puzzled by the sudden turn of events, raised an eyebrow.

Ji Chi, feeling triumphant, gave Qin Wan a provocative look, radiating an air of elegance and aloofness.

“Master!”

“He’s injured!” Jiang Junlin didn’t want Ji Chi to go out; his striking appearance could attract unnecessary attention. “Go ahead!”

Qin Wan slammed her gun on the table, swept her sleeves, and left. Ji Chi took the opportunity to sow discord, “Brother, can you really tolerate such a willful subordinate?”

“You say a few words less. Why can’t you get along with Little Cherry?”

“Little Cherry, you even have a nickname for her. Sounds quite intimate.” Ji Chi’s eyes darkened, and Jiang Junlin knew that Ji Chi was seriously upset.

“What nickname do you want? I’ll give you one too!”

Ji Chi’s eyes lit up. “Call me ‘hubby’!”

Jiang Junlin threw a punch at him. “Get lost!”

Ji Chi took a punch without getting angry. Instead, he acted like a loyal puppy, sticking close to his master. “Brother, why does she have the nickname ‘Little Cherry’?”

Jiang Junlin remained silent, and Ji Chi persisted, “Have you thought of a nickname for me? You can choose any, and I’ll definitely like it.”

Exclusive nicknames, like swearing sovereignty, always put Ji Chi in a good mood. Jiang Junlin maintained a stoic demeanor, observing with unwavering focus, treating Ji Chi’s banter like a passing breeze.

“Brother…” Ji Chi persisted, “Have you thought of a nickname for me?”

“She’s called Little Cherry. Do you want to be called Little Orange?” Jiang Junlin’s tone was icy, “You even get jealous over such trivial matters. How boring can you be?”

“Little Orange is too terrible, I hate it!” Ji Chi rejected his suggestion, automatically blocking out Jiang Junlin’s words. “I still prefer it when you call me ‘hubby.'”

“Ji Chi, you’re pushing it!”

Ji Chi continued to tiptoe along his boundaries, “Calling me ‘wifey’ is also an option.”

Jiang Junlin lightly slapped him, diverting his face that was leaning in too close. “Get lost!”

He focused on the surveillance, there were eight screens in the secure room, providing a comprehensive view with virtually no blind spots.

Jiang Junlin’s injuries were milder than Ji Chi’s, and he recovered quickly. His gastritis had healed, and the back wounds no longer festered or bled. Perhaps because of this, Ji Chi felt increasingly insecure, as if Jiang Junlin might kick him out at any moment. He constantly probed Jiang Junlin’s limits, and Jiang Junlin saw all his anxieties.

“Ji Chi, the matter concerning the Triad Dark Web isn’t suitable for your involvement. Once you’re better, you should leave, okay?” Jiang Junlin softened his tone, a rare occurrence. “It’s a tricky and dangerous situation.”

“Besides that little girl, who here can you trust? What if you get assassinated? Who will protect you?” Ji Chi stubbornly argued, “At least I won’t betray you.”

“I don’t need you to protect me. In fact, you need protection more than I do,” Jiang Junlin said, still focused on the surveillance. “Don’t be so stubborn. Right now, you can’t even beat Little Cherry.”

“Who says I can’t beat her?” Ji Chi exploded, “I could kill her in minutes, do you believe me?”

“I don’t!” Jiang Junlin coldly snorted. Qin Wan was his creation; there was no way Ji Chi could easily kill her. If Ji Chi recovered, he might win against Qin Wan, but it would still be a tough victory.

Qin Wan was a natural martial artist, and he didn’t know where she inherited that from. Chen Geng, despite his frailty, was capable enough for Dr. North to appoint him as a leader on the front lines, which was still a bit precarious.

“You…” The more Jiang Junlin favored Qin Wan, the more jealous Ji Chi became, and his hatred for Qin Wan continued to grow.

Jiang Junlin glanced at him, only to notice one of the monitors flickering. He spoke softly, “Cici and Qin Wan are both like sisters to me. If you want to kill her, should I go kill Lu Zhiyuan too?”

Ji Chi’s eyes lit up, “So, you’re jealous of Third Master?”

“I dislike him, but it’s unrelated to you,” Jiang Junlin said casually. He simply didn’t resonate with Lu Zhiyuan’s aura. His instincts had long told him that Lu Zhiyuan was his enemy.

Ji Chi felt defeated and turned to look at the monitors. However, after just three seconds, he squinted and leaned to check one of the screens. “Brother, get a gun. Something’s not right.”

“What’s wrong?”

“The snowflakes are off,” Ji Chi frowned, pointing to two adjacent monitors. “These two monitors, aren’t they pointing at different directions on the corner? The direction of the snowflakes is the same. I’ve replaced and studied the nearby surveillance cameras.”

This change was extremely subtle. Without specialized research, it would be impossible to notice. Jiang Junlin, upon closer inspection, realized that the surveillance had indeed been tampered with, and he hadn’t noticed it at all.

As soon as Ji Chi’s words fell, gunshots rang out. A burst of bullets pierced through the door, clearly with the intent to kill them. Ji Chi pushed Jiang Junlin to the ground, and both of them huddled behind an iron cabinet. The dilapidated door was kicked open, and a group of heavily armed masked assailants stormed in, opening fire inside.

Jiang Junlin and Ji Chi fought back, gunshots echoing throughout the room, creating a chaotic firefight.

“Let’s go!” Ji Chi’s face was cold, his voice stern. In this moment, there was no trace of weakness or stubbornness in Ji Chi in front of Jiang Junlin. His eyes were clear and determined.

The safe room had a narrow passage, easy to defend but difficult to attack. There was another floor above, and Ji Chi’s barrage of bullets forced the black-clad intruders to retreat. Jiang Junlin took the stairs.

Jiang Junlin lay in the best position on the stairs, providing covering fire for Ji Chi as he ascended. They closed off the passage and escaped through the emergency exit..
