Shadow Heir II: Dark Glory - Chapter 68

“Su Wuji!”

Jiang Wanxing glared at the man beside her, gritting her teeth. “You have so many rooms in this villa; why are you making me sleep on the sofa?”

“You’re the one who wanted to sleep on the sofa…” Su Wuji smiled awkwardly. “I originally wanted you to leave quickly…”

You might as well not explain!

Jiang Wanxing sneered. “Heh, you wanted to chase me away so badly just to spend some alone time with Qianyu, right?”

The more she recalled the conversation with Su Wuji just now, the more annoyed she felt.

However, hearing this, Mu Qianyu’s eyes curved into crescents.

She wanted to say something, but pursed her lips and remained silent, her gaze towards Su Wuji softening considerably! The upturn of her lips couldn’t be suppressed at all!

Su Wuji raised his white bear paw and scratched his head with one finger. “Jiang Wanxing, I asked you to leave early to avoid awkwardness for you. You don’t understand my good intentions.”

Jiang Wanxing chuckled. “You and I aren’t boyfriend and girlfriend, and Qianyu isn’t in that kind of relationship with you either. What do I have to be awkward about?”

Saying this, she turned directly to Mu Qianyu. “Qianyu, am I right?”

This rhetorical question reversed the situation almost instantly!

Mu Qianyu’s smile froze slightly. She had to admit, “Indeed, Sister Wanxing is right. Wuji and I are not yet boyfriend and girlfriend.”

“Then that settles it.”

Jiang Wanxing looked at Su Wuji and smiled. “Then I’ll pick a guest room upstairs?”

This sounded like asking for an opinion, but in reality, the decision had already been made! It had to be said, Jiang Wanxing adjusted her emotions very quickly!

Su Wuji smiled broadly. “Please, make yourself at home. Treat this place like your own.”

“Then I’ll go upstairs to shower first.” Jiang Wanxing said, pulling Mu Qianyu’s hand. “Qianyu, I’m not familiar with this place. Can you take me to the bathroom?”

She wouldn’t even give this couple a chance to be alone!

“Oh, okay.”

Mu Qianyu was pulled upstairs. As she ascended the stairs, she glanced back at Su Wuji. Her gaze was a bit complicated, containing a hint of helplessness at their private time being ruined.

“You guys sleep upstairs. Tonight, I’m sleeping on the sofa!”

Su Wuji shouted and lay down directly, his mind full of question marks… When did these two women get to know each other?

After showering, Jiang Wanxing walked downstairs holding a thin quilt.

She had changed into the black shorts and light green T-shirt she wore in the military. Although these clothes weren’t seductive at all, they looked exceptionally good on her.

“Why did you come down alone?” Su Wuji asked. “Where’s Qianyu?”

“Qianyu is helping me make the bed.”

Jiang Wanxing threw the quilt to Su Wuji, sat down on the sofa next to him, slapped his thigh, and asked, “You and Qianyu are progressing quite fast. Are you secretly blaming me for ruining your good time?”

Su Wuji raised his white bear paws. “Look at me wrapped up like this. What can I do? Even if I wanted to touch, I can’t…”

If Mu Qianyu heard this, she would likely cover her chest with both hands and flee in panic.

Jiang Wanxing’s pretty face flushed red quickly. “What do you want to touch?! Pervert!”

Saying this, she subconsciously looked down at her own chest.

Su Wuji grinned. “Didn’t I accidentally speak my mind?”

“I need to stay away from you, pervert.” Jiang Wanxing said.

However, despite saying so, she didn’t move her butt. The top of the curve behind her was almost touching Su Wuji’s exposed calf. With her keen senses, it was impossible for her not to notice this.

“Hey, let’s talk business.” Jiang Wanxing said. “Bai Xuyang told me he won’t go against you anymore. If anyone in the Capital dares to bully you, they are going against him.”

“Heh, childish.” Su Wuji shook his head. “I don’t believe it.”

Jiang Wanxing: “Bai Xuyang is actually quite reliable in this regard. He’s not an ungrateful person; he keeps his word.”

Su Wuji: “What if I steal the woman he likes?”

“You steal…” Jiang Wanxing blushed slightly. “That’s unnecessary. The woman he likes doesn’t like him back.”

Su Wuji stared at her beautiful profile. “Then maybe I should try stealing her?”

Jiang Wanxing hit him grumpily. “Eating from the bowl while looking at the pot. None of you men are any good.”

With that, she got up to leave.

Su Wuji instantly felt the loss of a warm and soft touch against his calf.

“Not sitting a bit longer?” Su Wuji was a little reluctant to let her go.

“I’ll tell you something I just heard.” Jiang Wanxing said while walking up the stairs. “Dkaro has suffered repeated defeats in China and has hired agents from the Raymond Intelligence Agency at a high price to dig out the real reason for their failure… Be careful.”

“None of my business.” Su Wuji wasn’t nervous at all, still maintaining that lazy appearance. “As long as those guys dare to come to Linzhou, I can make sure they never return.”

Hearing Su Wuji’s words, a fervent light flashed in Jiang Wanxing’s eyes.

Many men acted domineering verbally; Bai Xuyang was the most typical example. But Bai Xuyang’s dominance leaned more towards machismo, which was completely different from Su Wuji’s feeling of having victory in hand.

“This guy’s temper really suits my taste.” Jiang Wanxing walked upstairs calmly, thinking to herself, her pretty face slightly warm.

She subconsciously touched her behind, the spot that had previously been pressed against Su Wuji’s calf.

Su Wuji pulled the thin quilt over his head, but his thoughts were all about the Raymond Intelligence Agency.

The Raymond Intelligence Agency was the most prominent private intelligence agency in the West over the past decade. It was said that its founder, Raymond, was once the assistant to the “King of Intelligence” of the Western Dark World, Bierhoff. After Bierhoff retired, Raymond struck out on his own, establishing the Raymond Intelligence Agency and calling himself the Director.

This guy was quite capable, with many big shots behind him. He even secured large orders from the CIA and FBI every year, making him the new King of Intelligence.

“This Raymond Intelligence Agency is tired of living.”

Su Wuji thought for a moment, then turned on his phone under the covers. After a series of complicated operations, he logged into a certain forum.

He posted a thread.

The content was just one sentence—

If the Raymond Intelligence Agency dares to cooperate with the Dkaro Organization, they will be my eternal enemy.

Signed, Ranger · Shadow.

As soon as this post was published, the entire forum boiled over! Countless replies followed immediately!

“No way, am I seeing things? That signature just now… My god, is it the legendary Shadow? I thought he only existed in legends!”

“Could it be an imposter? People have posted in Shadow’s name before, and they turned out to be idiots.”

“This time it’s definitely not an imposter because the Dkaro Organization has failed several times in China recently. A lot of evidence confirms that this Shadow King really exists!”

In the Western Dark World, everyone said the Ranger organization had Four Heavenly Kings, but as time went on, some began to suspect there were more than that number. Because there were several extremely difficult missions in the past that the Four Heavenly Kings did not participate in, yet were completed brilliantly by the Ranger organization.

And today, with this post, it was thoroughly confirmed that the Four Heavenly Kings were actually five people!

The Fifth King!

At this time, Jiang Wanxing was also lying in bed.

She reached in, pulled the restrictive undergarment out from her neckline, fastened the two rather large semi-cups, and placed them casually beside her pillow.

It was a mystery how she completed this operation without taking off her T-shirt.

Just then, Jiang Wanxing’s phone rang.

“Chief, calling me so late, what’s up?” Jiang Wanxing asked. “Another emergency mission?”

“Check your phone. I just sent you a screenshot. It counts as good news, at least.”

“Okay, let me see.”

Jiang Wanxing turned on the speakerphone and opened WeChat.

The Director had sent her a long screenshot. The content was a post from a forum. Although it was all in English, Jiang Wanxing could understand it.

Her gaze sharpened slightly. “The Fifth King of the Ranger organization, Shadow, has declared war on the Raymond Intelligence Agency?”

The Director on the other end said, “I’ve heard for a long time that this Fifth King might actually exist, but I have a question.”

“What question?” Jiang Wanxing asked.

“The cooperation between the Dkaro Organization and the Raymond Intelligence Agency was discovered accidentally by our informant. In the entire Top Secret Task Force, only the two of us know about this.”

Jiang Wanxing’s expression froze. “So, Chief, you mean… the Ranger Shadow King is one of us?”

Director: “…”

“The Shadow definitely isn’t me.” Jiang Wanxing’s eyes flashed as she asked back, “Chief, so you were hiding this deeply?”
