C128 Missed
When they arrived at a shady area under the greenery, some of their men were left on standby. The rest of them had already set off for the capital of Syria.
As they were going to sort out the latest information, Hua Jingsheng asked them to rest on the spot. Yin Lan was not asked to participate by Hua Jingsheng, so she could only stay in the car alone.
Looking at the sunlight that was blocked by the greenery, she unwillingly flowed a circle of golden light at the tip of the leaf. Her gaze could not help but be attracted, and then dimmed along with the greenery.
Hua Jingsheng was disappointed in her, she knew. So this time, he did not let her participate in his life center. Fifth brother, Seiffer and Morsen were all his capable subordinates. They were clear about his thoughts, and could even understand his intentions from a single look.
Although she could understand it, she was not trusted by Hua Jingsheng. Most of the time, she was asking them to change for her from her own point of view, but she had never treated her from their point of view.
From Faang Yuanxi's matter to today's old man's matter, she had thought that Hua Jingsheng did not trust her, but now she suddenly realized that she wanted to truly integrate into his life.
However, Hua Jingsheng did not have much confidence in her. That was why he isolated her.
Even so, she did not have any resentment. After all, it was her own doing.
The promise Hua Jingsheng asked her to make earlier was not convincing. What he wanted was action.
Using action to prove that she could do it.
Suddenly, she closed her eyes and quietly leaned against the back seat. She secretly clenched her fists and reminded herself that this was really the last time.
She didn't want to be abandoned again!
The car door was pulled open and a shadow was imprinted on her face along with the faint light. Just as she was about to open her eyes, she felt the back seat sink. A long arm went around her neck and rested on her shoulder, carefully pulling her into her embrace. Then, the car door was quietly closed.
The familiar aura that made her feel at ease entered her nose. She moved slightly and wrapped her hands around the person's waist.
"You're awake?" A calm and steady voice with a soft and delicate tone, accompanied by a warm breath, pressed against her forehead.
Yin Lan slowly opened her eyes and looked up. Hua Jingsheng's angular face was reflected in her eyes. The warmth after coldness was the greatest desire of her life.
Her hand held Hua Jingsheng's resolute face. A firm look appeared in her clear eyes. "Jingsheng, I believe in you. It has always been."
Hua Jingsheng's eyes turned dark. A blue light burst out from his dark blue eyes. It was like a blue sky that attracted Yin Lan and voluntarily fell into it.
He lowered his head gently and his thin and cold lips pressed against the tip of Yin Lan's nose. His voice had faded away and contained a soft and bewitching voice. "Lan, I also believe in you. It's just that the current you is not enough. Do you understand?"
Her heart was too soft, too easily deceived. Once there was a gap, there would be the danger of a breakout.
He was not willing to take the risk on this matter that posed a threat of destruction.
"I understand." Yin Lan nodded and opened her hand that was holding his face. How could she not understand? She fell into the darkness halfway and Hua Jingsheng was born in the darkness. The gap between the two was undoubtedly huge.
But...
"Jingsheng, I will work hard. Don't abandon me, okay?"
The world was too small, and life was too long. She had been abandoned by her family, used by others. She had nothing left, and she could no longer find a place to belong to. She no longer had anyone to rely on. If Hua Jingsheng abandoned her again, it would be the same as letting her wander around in the real world, in despair and loneliness.
That was too tragic, too cruel, too terrifying...
Hua Jingsheng held Yin Lan's face with his hand. The blue color in his eyes suddenly disappeared, leaving only a dense black color as he carefully looked at her.
Yin Lan saw that Hua Jingsheng did not agree. The hand that hugged his waist tightly held his back. Her body trembled slightly and even her voice was choked, "I cannot lose you.
I am afraid... I am alone."
Hua Jingsheng's heart throbbed with pain as Yin Lan choked. He sighed heavily and pressed her tightly to his chest, "Lan, prove it to me and I will believe you."
"How do you prove it?" Yin Lan stopped choking and her voice did not sound abnormal.
"The person we are going to kill tonight is a mercenary leader comparable to an army. I hope the person who completed the mission is you." Hua Jingsheng's voice was calm and powerful, containing expectation.
"Okay." Yin Lan agreed without hesitation.
Hua Jingsheng used some more strength on his arm and his chest heaved up and down. He said, "Lan, if you can do it this time, I will not doubt you anymore."
"Okay." Yin Lan's conviction was firm and strong.
Before they left, Morsen got into the car. Yin Lan and Hua Jingsheng had already separated. One of them closed his eyes to rest and the other was focused on fiddling with the gun.
Yin Lan waited for a while but did not see Seiffer come up. She casually asked: "Morsen, where is Seiffer?"
Morsen started the car and answered gently, "He ran to the back to sit with them in the car. He said he did not want to disturb them, but I am the driver. Naturally, I can only come back."
Yin Lan raised her eyebrows in surprise. When she saw that Morsen did not have much smile on his face, she glanced at Seiffer's seat. The hand that removed the gun paused. In a flash, she understood a little. Then, she smiled and said, "Then you should be a good driver. Don't look around."
"Of course, I don't dare to be careless." Morsen laughed. His golden hair was as bright as the sun.
Yin Lan did not reply. She lowered her head and sorted out everything she needed.
Hua Jingsheng did not say anything from the beginning to the end. He closed his eyes and rested the whole way.
In the afternoon, they arrived at Damascus. The wide streets, the bustling crowds, the luxurious buildings, and the prosperous streets were completely different from what they saw in Fringe City. It was like two different worlds with different countries and different lands.
The white buildings had the style of Islam and were integrated with modern elements. They looked modern and fashionable at the same time.
They went around the city and arrived at a street full of ancient Roman culture. They drove directly into a nearby hotel. The white round arch was arranged neatly like a line of welcoming soldiers. It was similar to the hotel in Dubai, but much smaller. It looked like a small house that was temporarily occupied by a noble in the past.
Although it did not look as luxurious as Dubai, one could still see some beautiful murals and luxurious white marble bricks through the arched door.
Yin Lan hid a miniature gun in her chest and took off the black veil, revealing the dress she was wearing. She was slim and had a good figure. She had delicate facial features and beautiful eyebrows. Her long hair was fluttering in the wind. The moment she got off the car, she attracted the attention of a small group of people.
This made Hua Jingsheng frown. He threw the black veil back to her, "Put it on!"
Yin Lan looked at him in confusion. Seeing the displeasure on his face, she could only put it on.
Morsen saw that Hua Jingsheng was eating and covered his mouth. Because he could not control his smile, his shoulders trembled.
Yin Lan glared at him angrily and coldly snorted as she followed Hua Lingxin into the hotel.
Zhang Xunmo, who had been watching the situation from the opposite side, caught this scene through the telescope. His gaze left the telescope and Wen Juan's face instantly turned serious.
What he was most worried about was the encounter between Yin Lan and Ning Ou. Now, he was unable to stop it from happening.
The hand holding the phone hesitated a few times, but it was better to put down the phone. If he could delay it for a while, he would consider it a moment.
At the front desk, he took the room key that he had booked earlier. Morsen hinted to Hua Jingsheng to go to the meeting room to inquire about the situation, and conveniently went to the mall to help Yin Lan buy clothes.
On the other hand, Yin Lan was brought to the elevator by Hua Jingsheng. The rest of the people scattered when they entered the city to avoid attracting too much attention. However, they were all around here. If there was a situation, they could gather.
When Yin Lan and Hua Jingsheng stepped into the elevator together, the elevator next to them arrived on the first floor. Ning Ou walked out in a heroic manner, dressed in a trench coat.
Because he was pulled by some kind of telekinesis, he suddenly took a step and inadvertently looked back. He happened to see the elevator door close at the side. He frowned in puzzlement and turned his head to look outside.
"Jingsheng, why did I buy clothes and you let Morsen go?" Walking in the corridor to the room, Yin Lan curled her lips and looked at Hua Jingsheng, who was beside her, with a gloomy expression.
"Aren't you hot?" she asked. Hua Jingsheng looked at Yin Lan, who was pouting and walking step by step. He looked at her with a calm voice.
Yin Lan could hear his concern from his words. She pursed her lips and smiled, "This place is much better than Dubai."2
Hua Jingsheng's gaze was like a sharp blade as it swept over.
Her smile immediately turned into a flattering one. "Morsen's taste is unique. I'm worried that I can't control the style he bought."
Hua Jingsheng picked up the room card and swiped it. He gave a cold humph that was hard to say with praise. "You know your own limits on this point."
... "" Yin Lan was so angry that she was speechless.
The room was extremely luxurious. The walls and chandelier were golden in color. After entering the room, it was full of pure gold and the floor was full of luxury. Even the curtains were golden in color. However, due to the proper decoration, the luxury was not obvious. Instead, it gave off a sense of uniqueness and elegance.
Yin Lan's entire body was sticky. She hugged her nightgown and rushed to the bathroom impatiently. She stayed inside for half an hour before she came out satisfied. She laid on the bed happily and sighed that it was better to have a place with water!
Someone suddenly knocked on the door. She knew to follow Hua Jingsheng. When there was no housekeeper, she had to do these things herself. While wiping her hair, she walked towards the door.
When he opened the door, he saw Seiffer leaning against the door. His face was covered in sweat. His hair was stuck to his forehead as if he had been pulled out of the boiler.
"You..." Yin Lan looked at him from head to toe and took a step back to maintain her distance.
She did not want to be touched by his sweat again.
Seiffer looked at Yin Lan and his blue eyes were filled with emotions. He then grinned, "Girl, it's good that you're back."
Yin Lan's eyes warmed when she heard him. She smiled gently, "I hope that my disappearance did not make things difficult for you."
Seiffer shrugged and walked inside. After walking two steps, he saw Hua Jingsheng wearing long pants and walking out naked.
He raised his eyebrows in surprise and then calmed down. After all, it had been so many years. It was time to take this step.
This was the first time Yin Lan saw Hua Jingsheng's bare upper body. The texture of his muscles were clear and deep. They were strong but not strong. Each of the taut lines had the power to prepare for battle. It made her eyes widen.
