Chapter 1052 - I Know Where He Is

xin Flower Shop, Wang Jie was sulking to himself: "My big brother hooked two girls at once while I can’t even see a girl’s shadow. Why am I so unlucky""You don't know this" Fang Xiaoru pouted. "You mu...Chapter 1052 - I Know Where He Is

York was a blond foreign man who actually looked quite handsome, but at the moment his handsome face was twisted in pain. Two throwing knives had penetrated his wrists and were still stuck there, preventing him from using his hands while causing him immense physical agony.

"Avril, there wasn't any traitor! We just didn't want you and your daughter to hand over the organization to a stranger!" York looked at Avril and couldn't help swallowing saliva. Even though he was in such a predicament, her extremely sexy figure still made him feel aroused, and this only fueled his resentment that such a beautiful woman should belong to him rather than a stranger!

"You Who exactly are you people" Avril snorted coldly. "How did I hand over the organization to a stranger He's my man! Can my man be a stranger Besides, Shadow Squad has always invited genuine experts to join us, which is why we've remained strong and prosperous. Hailing Xia to join the Shadow Squad was originally the decision of our organization!"

"Avril, the organization only asked you to invite Summer to join; it never said he should become the leader of the Shadow Squad!" York glared fiercely at Avril. A few months ago, this woman hadn't been so sexy and mature, but now she'd completely transformed into a captivating beauty that could turn heads. This clearly was the work of the man she mentioned, and in this moment, it seemed not only were his hands bleeding, but his heart was too.

"York, I don't want to waste time on idle talk with you now. Tell me, who is the mysterious billionaire offering a $50 million bounty for my head You must have done this!" Avril was extremely angry; she still didn't understand how some wealthy person could offer such a high bounty to deal with her.

"Hahaha, that's right, I did it! Avril, you probably never imagined that the man you killed on the cruise ship wasn't who you thought he was, right" York felt momentarily triumphant. "You also wouldn't have guessed that this mission was set up deliberately by me. However, I won't tell you who the billionaire is; I'll only let you know that you killed someone's only son, and this person has assets worth over 9 billion dollars... uh!"

York's pride quickly turned into a painful scream as Avril threw two more throwing knives, which pierced his thighs. The knives passed through him and returned to Avril’s hand. It was無可否認 that Avril’s knife-throwing skills were simply divine.

"York, you're just this stupid. Saying that you don't want to give the organization to an outsider is complete nonsense! Before I boarded the cruise ship, I never said anything about Summer joining the Shadow Gang or becoming its leader!" Avril sneered and shouted, "Hurry up and tell me what your intentions are! Who else in the organization is working with you"

"Alright, I'll tell you. My accomplice in the organization is Sherry... Ah!" As soon as York said a name, he let out another painful scream. This time, Avril shot four throwing knives, which pierced his legs and created eight bloody holes.

"York, we both came from the Shadow Gang. You know exactly how to make someone talk. Don't force me to cut your flesh bit by bit!" Cold light flashed in Avril’s beautiful eyes. "Who is really working with you Stop lying to me!"

The reason why Avril didn’t believe York was because Sherry was her mother's name.

"Avril, let's make a deal," York gritted his teeth. He couldn't stand steadily and could only sit on the ground, with blood staining all of his clothes red.

"What do you think gives you the right to bargain with me" Avril sneered.

"Even if I tell you who else in the organization is working with me, I know that you wouldn't spare me. However, there's something I know that you would definitely want to know." York panted slightly, "You came to China actually looking for Xia Tian, right It’s a pity you didn’t find him. Didn’t I say it correctly"

"So what if I am" Avril didn't deny it; she simply gave a cold snort, "York, are you saying that you know where he is"

"That’s right, I do know where he is." York actually nodded his head. "If you’re willing to let me go, I can tell you his whereabouts."

"Do you really think I’d believe you" Avril snorted coldly, "Even I don’t know where he is, how would you know"

"Avril, whether or not you believe it is up to you. But I can tell you that he’s currently in Wanggang City. The reason why you couldn’t find him was because he’s using a different name and living with another woman, a very pretty one at that, just like you! Hahahaha… I reckon he might be tired of you, hence trying to avoid you deliberately. If you don't believe me, go ask him yourself…" It wasn’t clear if it was out of jealousy or something else, but York still wanted to provoke Avril even in this situation.

A somewhat surprised voice suddenly came from behind Avril: "You said my little husband is in Wanggang Where is he"

Avril didn’t need to turn around to know that it was Isabella who had come. The explosion and gunfire naturally alarmed her as well, and she rushed here out of concern for Avril's safety.

"SHIT! You two actually let that brat off the hook, damn it!" York suddenly cursed angrily and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Instructor, the police are almost here. We need to leave. Should we take him away first and find a safe place to interrogate him later" Isabella had heard sirens in the distance and couldn't help but speak up again.

"Alright." Avril nodded and quickly moved to stand before York, kicking him on the back of his head. York immediately fell unconscious.

"Instructor, let's go!" Isabella lifted York with one hand and leaped off into the darkness; Avril followed suit, and both figures swiftly vanished into the night.

Summer spent a few low-key days at home after taking Ning Jie's advice. He practically devoted all his time to absorbing yin fire, even putting on hold his intention to delve deeper into Ning Jie’s inner beauty and absorb her body's yin fire. To him, life in Wantong City was bearable but still a form of torture; he hoped to get through this period as soon as possible.

However, after several days passed, Summer found himself rather disappointed because some things couldn't be rushed. For example, absorbing yin fire: Although his absorption speed had slightly increased over these few days, the improvement was minimal. It was still unrealistic to expect to finish absorbing all the yin fire within just a couple of days.

Continuously absorbing yin fire for several days was also rather monotonous. So when Summer realized that he couldn't significantly increase his absorption speed today, he decided not to continue with it and slept until noon. Then, an incredibly beautiful melody caught his attention.

"...Snow still falls heavily in the air... Snow Princess is already intoxicated..." This beautiful song carries a hint of sorrow.

Summer quickly realized that this voice was coming from downstairs and hurriedly ran out of her bedroom to the living room on the first floor. She soon found the source of the singing, but she was disappointed to find that Zhao Yujie wasn't here; instead, the song was playing from a computer. Ning Jie had just bought a laptop a few days ago and placed it on the coffee table while browsing online and listening to music.

"You're awake!" Ning Jie immediately sensed Summer's presence and promptly turned off the music.

"Don't turn it off, I want to listen." Summer hurriedly said.

"Okay." For a moment, Ning Jie was confused but still restarted the song. She realized for the first time that Summer actually liked listening to songs too.

After finishing the song, Summer sat there in a daze. Ning Jie couldn't help asking, "Do you like Zhao Yujie's songs as well"

Summer responded off-topic by saying, "My big demoness wife misses me."

"Wife of the Great Demoness" Ning Jie was puzzled for a moment and didn't understand.

"The song that the wife of the Great Demoness is singing is about our time together. She might know I'm missing, and she must be thinking about me right now." Xia Tian looked somewhat unhappy because he could tell from her voice that Zhao Yujie wasn't feeling well. At this moment, he even had an urge to find Zhao Yujie, but unfortunately, he couldn't.

Ning Jie was stunned once again. Only at this time did she finally understand that the "wife of the Great Demoness" Xia Tian referred to was actually Zhao Yujie, and she also believed that what Xia Tian said wasn't a lie. The lyrics of Zhao Yujie's song 'Snow Maiden' really recorded their time together. Ning Jie could also tell from the lyrics and singing that Zhao Yujie had feelings for a certain man; it was just that she didn't know who this man was before, but now she understood—this man was Xia Tian.

"Don't be unhappy, you'll see her soon." Ning Jie couldn't help but comfort Xia Tian. She could feel how unhappy Xia Tian really was at the moment, which made her realize that even though he seemed to enjoy those things, he truly loved his woman—at least Zhao Yujie.

"Yeah, I’ll find her soon and won’t let my wife be sad for long." Xia Tian nodded then grumbled unhappily, "All because of that dead woman Song Yumei!"

While Ning Jie was comforting Xia Tian, in the city there was also someone comforting Zhao Yujie.

"Xiao Yu, don't worry. Xia Tian is fine." It was Uncle Zhao Gongszi speaking. Looking at his slightly pale and beautiful younger sister, he felt heartache but couldn’t understand what magical powers that Xia Tian had to make her fall for him so quicklyere a treasure.Suddenly, someone's phone rang, and then they saw the middle-aged man take out his phone to answer it. After just two sentences, he began to angrily shout: "What How can they do this Wa...
