What Yun Yi said touched Yun Jian. It was something she had never experienced in the past.
“Mn!” Yun Jian gave a hard nod looking at Yun Yi. She had not expected him to say something so moving Yun Jian was not one to cry but there was a glimmer of tear shining in the corner of her eye. Of course, it was only a glimmer of it. No matter how moved Yun Jian was, she would never cry in front of others.
“Alright, Xiao Jian, you guys are going somewhere, right? You should get going now.”
Having cleared the air now, Yun Yi was not as hesitant as he had been. Although he had no idea where his biological younger sister was, there was nothing he could do. He might as well get over it but that did not mean he gave up finding out.
“Mn.” Yun Jian recovered to her usual demeanor when she saw Yun Yi suddenly cracking a smile at her to try and make her smile too and alleviate the tension.
“Ge, I’ll get going then,” she turned and told Yun Yi as she walked out of the garden.
“Okay.” Yun Yi nodded before he stopped Yun Jian when it seemed like he had suddenly remembered something. “Xiao Jian, I’m not opposed to wherever you guys are going but I only ask for one thing-go safely and return in one piece!”
Yun Yi’s words struck a chord in Yun Jian’s heart again. He was not worried about anything but their safety.
His concern moved Yun Jian, so she nodded at him. “Ge, I promise. Whatever happens from now on, I’ll come back alive!”
Yun Yi did not ask where she was going to or what she was doing, he had never done something like this, but he and Qin Yirou meant the same—they only wanted Yun Jian to be safe.
When Yun Jian left the garden, Si Yi had his back facing the Lamborghini sports car with his legs languidly laid out against the low vehicle. His tall and lean form looked incredibly charming no matter which angle one looked at him from.
He watched as Yun Jian walked over to him.
“What took you so long?” Si Yi had only asked gently when Yun Jian came to him and held her hand as he did.
“I was talking to my brother.” Yun Jian beamed at Si Yi with crescent eyes.
Having bagged both familial and romantic love now, this was the life she had looked forward to in her previous life.
“Mn.” Si Yi did not ask more, merely patted Yun Jian’s head with a big, bony palm and pulled her into the car.
Other than Si Yi and Yun Jian, Snow Eagle and Qing You were also going with them. Snow Eagle had dropped Si Luo at Qin Yirou’s place reluctantly and repeatedly reminded them that he would come pick up Si Luo once he came back, afraid that Si Luo would refuse to leave Qin Yirou’s place.

Each international mafia tea party was a dangerous one. Those who attended were either masterly skilled secret agents and assassins or world-famous big shots.
There were insignificant assassins and secret agents who were present as well but these people did not have much of a presence. They were usually overlooked. When they arrived at the airport, Si Yi parked his Lamborghini sports car at the valet parking and the four of them boarded the plane to Country B.
The venue of the tea party was set in a country with a relatively backward economy development in the world each year, where wars and strifes could possibly happen there anytime.
If one had to ask why, that was because there would always be some sort of conflicts happening in the gathering of secret agents and assassins when they were in a developed country.
Had someone been killed by then, or somebody decided to blow some people up with explosives, grabbing heavy firearms and starting a battle, no one would care in an underdeveloped country. It fitted the bill.
And Country B was such the underdeveloped country.
